Sin and Dr. Withy combe Alee Speak Before Pro-g-realva Basiaeas Ken. New York, Oct. 29. Tbe German army, which .was reported last week to have started from East Prussia to de velop a new attack on Warsaw, has failed to carry out its instructions. It appears to have encountered a superior Rusnlan force, operating from Augus- towo. and to have been held in check too close to tbe frontier to exert any Influence on the Warsaw campaign. In consequence of this there has been no diminution in the pressure the Rus sians, were bringing to bear on the German front along the Vistula, and the Berlin war office admitted today that a "change of formation" was in progress in the latter quarter. The meaning of the war office's statement is that a new line of strat egy Is in course of development. plan Was to Assault Warsaw. The original German offensive in Russian Poland contemplated a dltect assault on Warsaw. ' The Russians, however, succeeded in out-concentrat ing the Germans, and forced them to fall back so far that the city is now as much out of the range of immediate operations as is Paris. Elsewhere in Poland the Germans are folding their own. The kaiser's offensive against War saw by a direct march from the Ger man frontier having been thrown back, it is probable that a new line of at tack is .being mapped out. The initial 'Teutonic advance was from the west, and the reenforclng movement was from the north. Each startedfrom a base within German ter ritory. Presumably an attempt is to be made now from the southward, and indications are that this was what the War office referred to when it spoke of a "change of formation." Would Attack Ivangorod. A southern offensive would operate with wesSern Gallcla as its direct base, and Its first objective would not bo Warsaw, but Ivangorod, 60 miles south of the former city. Ivangorod is a secondary fortress, protecting the left flank of the Russian forces engaged in Warsaw's defense. Operations in force in this area might easily compel the czar to with draw a large part of his army in Galicia, and if this should happen, un doubtedly the Austrlans could swarm across the San and recapture Lemberg, thus recovering practically the whole of their partly lost province. Such a possibility unquestionably has its influence with the German SILENT ON FRANCHISE FORFEITURE PROBLEM CHAMBERLAIN WILL SPEAK HERE TWICE ' ON SATURDAY NIGHT Next Step In Linnton FareJ Case Is Now Up to the;t United Railways Co.,- X CHANGES ARE IMMINENT Action of Moltnonjah County Commis sioner Puts Baiiroad Company on Defensive to Ketain Bights. The Progressive Business Men's Club heard this afternoon four candi dates for governor F. M. Gill, Pro gressive; Dr. C. J. Smith, Democratic; W. H. U'Ken, independent, and Dr. James Wlthycombe, Republican. Each stated his position on cam paign issues and some of the more disputed measures to be voted on. Mr. Gill, as first speaker, announced his approval of the prohibition amend ment, national equal suffrage, single Item veto, the. Oregon system, the re call of judicial decisions, good roads, and his opposition to child labor and the enforcement of law by means' of the militia.. Dr. Smith Attacks Measure. Dr. Smith made vigorous attack on the proposed "primary delegate" meas ure. His observation had convinced lifrn, he said, that the people are even more apt to vote intelligently on meas ures than the legislature, especially a legislature that tries to dispose of some 900 bills during the last days of Us session. "I am opposed to the assembly plan. he declared. "I am for the Oregon system. It is one of the greatest educational factors in Amer Iran politics. It gives Oregon the name, 'State of Statesmanship.' I am opposed to any tampering with the di- reor primary, Dr. Smith spoke strongly In favor , of the single Item veto, of rigid law enforcement, of more equitable taxa tion, in Multnomah county alone, he : said, taxes have Increased 191 per cent In. four years. Farmers complain that .taxes are burdensome, "We can't keep '. -on in this way, and if I am elected governor I shall certainly see ' that 'Something is done to make taxation i jnore equitable and less burdensome."

W. S. U'Ren was the only one of the Speakers who referred to other candi dates. V. M.

The president intimated, however. that the company ha a program. though he would not say what it will be. It Is known that North Bank offi cials have for some time been con sidering sweeping changes in the handling of business over the United Railways, a property that has showed consistent revenue deficits almost from the first.

There is absolutely no reason, from a domestic standpoint, why things should not be decidedly on the up grade.

But there la tm that uncertainty that somehow keeps the producers from letting go of their surplus." After Exposition Business, SDeaking of the company's orders for passenger equipment, Mr. Hanna- ford said that the company intenas i" handle its full share of business next year and wants to be ready to do It. Of the 117 cars 21 are sleeping cars and the rest are coaches, observation cars and a ftw dining cars. No freight cars are to be ordered, at least outside the capacity of the com pany's own shops to build. wood is being used tn the boxcars being built during idle time at the company's shops, "which the lumbermen out here should appreciate," Mr. Hannaford ex plained. Mr. Hannaford said the September reports from the maintenance depart ment of his road showed marked In creases over September, 1918, indicat ing that the work of upkeep is going steadily on, even if new lines are not being built. Hew Cut-Off Beady Soon, After an inspection of the new line at Tacoma yesterday, Mr. Hannaford said the new hit or County Assessor Henry E. Reed this should be ready for operation within morning announced that the assessed a rew weens. mo . ... v state tax commission, amounts to $297,035,555. These figures are yet subject to slight change, as they are yet to be checked, but he said they were practically official. The total is much less than the $808. 605.255 of last year, but last year in cluded assessments of three big rail road bridges, the Portland Gas & Coke company, the northwestern Electric company, the St. Johns water works, and several other classes of propertj which will all be assessed this year by the state tax commission. Mr. Reed said that these properties would make a difference of probablj $5,000,000 in the valuations The. re mainder of the decrease, he said, was due to reduction of merchandise stocks, lower values in suburban properties in some sections and other cases of a likj nature. Last year Multnomah1 county was al lowed $32,859,420 of the assessments against public service corporations do ing inter-county business, which were made by the state. This year he antic ipates a larger apportionment of these valuations that will bring the total to practically the same as that of last year. $341,464,675. p -.. . petition in bankruptcy involving lia bilities of nearly $1,000,000.
