GERMANS GET WARSAW
RUSSIANS FIGHT STUBBORNLY
TILL ARMY IS SAFE.
Supposed Garrison Surrenders While
Russians Make Orderly Retreat
to New Position.
Yesterday's press dispatches pro
claim the downfall of Warsaw. An
official statement from the German
war office yesterday announced that
the Germans had entered the Polish
capital.
The Russian garrison, It was an
nounced, retired over the three bridg
es spanning the Vistula to the eastern
suburb of Praga after offering brief
resistance to the Teutonic forces.
The Bavarian troops under Prince
Leopold stormed the last line of de
fenses and entered the city over the
Kotish and Radom roads.
From Praga the Russian center Is
retiring along the railway leading to
Novo Minsh and. over the plain of the
northern railway, keeping in touch
with the right wing near Novo
Georglewisk.
The German forces pursuing the re
treating Slavs captured many strag
glers. Rumors of the capture of Warsaw
were circulated early today before of
ficial announcement of the fact was
made. Berlin then began prepara
tions for a celebration, and with the
publication of extra editions of papers
announcing the fall of the city, bells
were tolled and the capital gave itself
over to general rejoicing.
The official statement from the war
office gave no details of the final en
gagement at the gates of Warsaw, or
of the greater battle on the wings in
which the Germans sought to envel
op the Slav forces.
That the struggle before the last de
fenses of the city was short and fierce
is evidenced by the fact that Prince
Leopold arrived before the outer
works of Warsaw only a day and a
half ago. The Russians were holding
a line running through Blonie, 13
miles from the city. With the open
ing of the Bavarian assault they fell
back to the last lines in front of the
city and finally were driven out en
tirely. It is believed that a greater part
of, the Russian garrison which re
mained In Warsaw to the last was
captured. No specific mention is made
of the success of the pursuit of the
remainder which escaped, and it is
assumed that the Slavs either destroy
ed the Vistula brtdgeB Or attempted
to destroy them after withdrawing in
order to delay the pursuit of the Teu
tons. The ,flrst Germans entered the city
Wednesday. Simultaneously general
assaults were begun along the Narew
river to Ostrolenka and against the
Russian positions before the Bug. A
great battle Is now raging in this region.

NO VIOLATION, SAYS GERMANY.
Country Agree to Pay Pamages for
Sinking of Steamer Frye.
Washington dispatches on the
fourth of the month say that Germany
is to be unyielding In her refusal to
concede that the sinking of the Amer
ican sailing ship William P. Frye by
the auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel
Friederich in the South Atlantic last
January was a violation of American
rights under the Prussian-American
treaty or of International law. How
ever, Germany again declares her wil
lingness to pay for the ship, and ac
cepts a proposal first advanced by
the United States that the amount of
damages be fixed by two experts, one
to be selected by each country. Such
a sum the German government pledg
es itself to pay promptly, with the
stipulation, however, that the pay
ment shall not be viewed as a satis
faction for violation of American
rights. Should that method be un
satisfactory, Germany invites the Uni
ted States to arbitration at The Hague.
SAYS THEY WILL WIN.
Pnter Declares Hi Relief the Squat
ters Will Be Recognized.
"People are continually asking me
about grant lands and the chanceB
squatters have for securing the tracts
I selected for them" observed S. A.
D. Puter, well known to fame for his
connection with Oregon land fraud
cases a few years ago, and for which
he paid the law's penalty, says the
Eugene Register. At the time Puter
made his observation he was pouring
over a book in the county clerk's of
fice. He worked assiduously all yes
terday afternoon, listing the names of
those who have filed on the Oregon
and California land grant, for which
they proffer the company the stipulat
ed price of 12.50 per acre. Puter
made another notation with his pen
ell, then paused and assumed a rumi
nating abstraction. "1 can tell them.
he resumed, "that I don't know, but
I have every reason to believe that
they will win out. I am pretty sure
that the farming and grazing lands
will be opened to entry."
