No Reply from Reds LONDON, July 14.?British officials 6aid to-day that- the Russian Soviet government had not yet replied to the Allied demand for an armistice be? tween Poland ana Russie., to be fol? lowed by a peace conference. The British note to Russia agreeing to continue negotiations for a resump? tion of trade, and proposing an armi? stice between > Russia and Poland and between the soviets and General Wrangel was read in the House of Com? mons by Andrew Bonar Law, govern? ment spokesman. The note said: "The ?oviet government repeatedly has declared its anxiety to make peace with all its neighbors. The British government is no less anxious to re? store peace throughout Europe and therefore proposes the following ar? rangement with this object in view: "That an immediate armistice be signed between Poland and soviet Rus? sia under which hostilities shall be sus? pended. That the terms of this armi? stice provide,on the one hand,that the Polish army shall immediately with? draw to the lines provisionally laid down last year by the peace conference ?as to the eastern boundary to which .Poland is entitled to establish a Polish adhninistration. Conference Under Allied Auspices "On the other hand, the armistice should provide that the army of Soviet Russia should stand at a ?iistance of fifty kilometers east of this line. In Eastern Galicia each army will stand on the line they occupy at the date of the signature of tht armistice. "That as soon as possible thereafter a conference, sitting under the auspices of. the peace conference, shall assemble in London, to be attended by represen? tatives of Soviet Russia, Poland, Lithu? ania, Lettonia and Finland, with the object of negotiating a final peace be? tween Russia and its neighboring states. Representatives of Eastern Galicia also would be invited to Lon? don to state their case. "For the purpose of this conference Great Britain will place no restrictions on the representatives which Russia may nomihate, provided they undertake while in Great Britain not to interfere in politics or the internal affairs of the British Empire or in propaganda." Wrangel's Retirement Demanded The note said the armistice with General Wrangel should be on the basis that Wrangel retire immediately to the Crimea and that during the armistice this must be a neutral /.one. Wrangel would be invited to London to discuss the future of his troops and of the refugees under his protection, but would not be a member of the con? ference. "The British government," the note continued, "would be glad of an im? mediate reply to this telegram, as the Polish government has asked for the intervention of the Allies and as the time is vital and a situation may de? velop which will make the conclusion of a lasting peace far more difficult. "Therefore, the British government has bound itself to give no assistance to Poland for any purpose hostile to Russia and to take no action itself hostile to Russia. It is, however, bound under the covenant of the League of Nations to defend the in? tegrity of Poland within its legitimate ethnographical frontiers. "If, therefore, Soviet Russia, despite its repeated declarations, will not be content with the withdrawal of the Polish army on the condition of a mu? tual armistice, but intends to take ac? tion hostile to Poland in Poland's own territory, the British government and its Allies will feel bound to assist the Polish nation to defend its existence with all means at their disposal. Cites Willingness of Poland "The Polish government has declared its willingness to make a peace with Soviet Russia and to negotiate for an armistice on the basis set out above, directly it is informed that the Soviet government also agrees. "The British government would, therefore, be glad to receive a definite reply within a week as to whether Soviet Russia is prepared to accept the Brit? ish government's proposals to put an end to further unnecessary bloodshed and restore peace to Europe." Mr. Bonar Law, replying to a ques? tion, Bald the note had been sent with the approval of the Allies. The armistice with General Wrangel, the government Bpokesir.an said, would be on the basis that Wrangel retire Immediately to the Crimea and that during the armistice this must be a neutral zone. Wrangel would be in? vited to London to discuss the future of his troops, but would not be a member of the conference to follow the armistice.

The team on which the King played won by a score of 9 goals to 5. Alfonso scored 3 goals and Prince Henry, third son of King George, shot 2. Other members of the team on which the ?Spanish monarch and Prince Henry had positions were W. S. Buckmaster and Lord Wodehouse. Their opponents were Earl Beatty, Lord Wim borne, Colonel C. D. ""Miller and E. B. Horlick. The game was a fairly fast one. Among the spectators were the Queen of Spain, Dowager Queen Alexandra and Princess Beatrice. and Viloika, thet latter remaining Rus? sian, while Oshmiany is retained by Lithuania. The frontier ends on the western Dvina, between Kreslavka and Pridrussk. Tho correspondent of the Copenhagen "Berlinske Tidende" at Kovno says that the military pressure of the Bolshevik forces and the moral pressure, of the advancing Lithuanian army makes the Poles ready to evacuate Lithuanian soil. Conditions at Vilna are reported hopeless. The Poles, without food and panicstricken, are said to be organizing volunteers to garrison tho town when the regular troops leave, probably to? morrow. The correspondent says this is likely to lead to fighting with the Lithuanians.

Drunk Without a Drink, Farmhand Faces Court Special Dispatch to The Tribune POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., July 14.? Franklin Frazier, of Verbank Village, was arraigned in the county court to? day on a charge of intoxication, al- I though it was_ admitted that he had not taken a drink. Frazier, who is an employee of Frank Scott, a farmer, pleaded guilty. He had been employed, with several other, men, cleaning a vinegar pit. This work is done once a year, and each time the men become intoxicated from the fumes that arise from the pit. The effect varies. Some become hilarious and want to sing and dance. Others go on a rampage. Frazier wanted to go joy riding, so he took an automobile from a garage. He drove around for two hours before he was arrested. Boy Killed by Auto; Hospital Is Mobbed Infuriated Crowd Pursues Driver as He Carries the Victim to Institution The reserves of the East 104th Street police station were called last night to protect Mount Sinai Hospital from riotous Italians, who pursued to the 103d Street entrance of the in? stitution the driver of an automobile delivery truck which had run over and killed a boy. Vito Antonelli, nine, of 234, East 106th Street, was the victim. Joseph Pacelli, n grocer of Newburgh, N. Y., was the driver and owner of the auto? mobile. According to witnesses, Pacelli was proceeding slowly through 106th Street when the boy darted in front of his machine. They regarded the I accident as unavoidable. | No sooner had Pacelli lifted the boy ! into his car, however, and started for the hospital, than men and women came running from tenement stoops and doorways and took up the pursuit, yelling threats at every step. Two de? tectives and a patrolman sought in vain to stem the current. The crowd jammed them in its ranks and hustled them along with it. It was not until they reached the hospital that one . of the police trio managed to extricate himself and tele? phone for the reserves. Nurses slammed and locked the door of the hospital behind Pacelli and his burden and the policemen present sought in vain to disperse the angry Italians. In a few minutes the reserves came up on the run and drove the throng away. Physicians at the hospital said that the boy had been killed outright, Pacelli was locked up on a formal charge of homicide. Warm Greeting Given Japanese LWarship Here Gifts Presented to Men and !'; Officers of Kasuga; As? surances of Good Will of Two Nations Exchanged A huge silver loving cup and many packages and parcels containing fruits and cigarettes were presented by the Japanese Welcome Committee to th? officers and men of the* Japanese battle cruiser Kasuga shortly after it anchored off West Ninety-sixth Street in tho Hudson late yesterday after? noon. Speaking in Japanese, Dr. J. Taka mine, the chairman of the committee, in making the presentation said that the visit of tho cruiser was timely be? cause it expressed the goodwill of the Japanese government despite the anti Japanese agitation in California. In responding Captain H. Teraoka, chief officer of the Kasuga, said that while it is true that his men and he were ?fighters and not diplomats, he was certain that their visit to this country would help promote, better un? derstanding between Japan and the United States. Attended Maine Centennial The cruiser was sent by the Japanese government in response to an invita? tion to take part in the Maine centen? nial festivities and arrived at Portland, Me., on July 3, thirty-eight days after it left Tokio. Due to a ?lense fog, the vessel, which was expected to arrive at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, arrived six hours later, with the result that an extensive program that had been arranged for the afternoon and which included a visit to the Mayor, the commandant of the Brooklyn Navy Yard and the com? mander in chief of the Atlantic Fleet was put over to Friday. The steamer sailed up as far as Grant's Tomb, where it stopped while the Kasuga's band played trio "Star Spangled Banner" as a salute to the dead Ulysess S. Grant. Commander A. Parker, aide to the commandant of the 3d Naval District; Admiral J. II. Glennon, and Commander John Grady, of the U. S. S. Dolphin, ex? changed greetings with Captain Teraoka. After the picture men had photo? graphed the captain and his aides to their heart's content he met the re? porters in his cabin and answered a few questions about American and Japanese relations through Captain I. Uycda, the naval attach? at the Jap? anese Embassy at Washington, and K. Kumasaki, Japanese Consul General. Asked whether the anti-Japanese agitation in California would cause friction between this country and Japan Consul General Kumasaki said: "Oh, no! We are trying our best to reserve the traditional friendship that as existed between our two countries for over half a century." I He said that most of the misunder? standing between the Japanese and Americans is due to the fact that they are ignorant of each other. Japan Society Gives Dinner A dinner was given last night by the Japan Society In honor of Captain Teraoka and officers of the Kasuga, at the Metropolitan Club, Fifth Avenue and Sixtieth Street. Among those who spoke were August Belmont, vice president of the Japan Society, who presided la place of Frank Vanderllp, president of the society, who was un? able ba attend; Judge E. H. Gary, Henry W. Taft, Rear Admiral E. H. Glennon and Consul General Kumasakl. "If the presence of the Kasuga on this historical river will help to accom? plish the admirable object of the Japan Society I am more than satisfied," said Captain Teraoka. **T assure you gen? tlemen that we will cooperate with you ir your work to promote a mutual un? derstanding of your people and ours." ' To-day a detachment of officers and sailors from the cruiser will visit Coney Island and in the evening a group of officers will go to a reception . at the Nippon Club. The Kasuga will make a five-day stay in this port and then steam for Japan by way of the Panama Canal.

Kawakami, of San Francisco, secre? tary of the Japanese Association of America, is the recognized head of the Japanese in this country and the man in charge of an insiduous system of Japanese secret service in the United States." This was the testimony offered to dey before the Senate Immigration Committee, looking into Japanese con? ditions in'California, by V. S. Mc Clatchy, publisher of "The Sacramento Bee." Kawakami, he told the committee, represents the Mikado. He has abso? lute charge of the expenditure of an rnnual fund of $100,000, raised by Jap? anese to combat anti-Japanese senti? ment and anti-Japanese laws in this country. McClatchy was asked whether Kawa? kami had more power than the Jap? anese consuls. He was unable to say, but expressed the opinion that Kawa? kami has unlimited secret official pow? ers under the knowledge and active co? operation of the Japanese government. Prejudice Is Denied These sensational statements moved Congressman Isaac Siegel, of New York, to accuse the witness of bias and prejudice. McClatchy hotly denied the charge.
