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

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

: said, taxes have Increased 191 per cent

After an inspection of the new line

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
