The Tribune'? Kuropcan Bureau Copyright, 1920, New Ynrlt Tribune Inc. LONDON, Oct. 12.?Although reports that a joint Franco-British note has been sent to Warsaw on the subject of Genera! Zellgouski's occupation of .Vilna, the Lithuanian capital, are I premature, there is no doubt, mat. such a message has been drafted. The British government is advising the Polish government to reconsider its disapproval of /.ellgouski'H net and to force him to evacuate Vilna which, under an agreement recently reachod at .Suwalki, was to remain Lithuanian territory. Although tho Polish Cabinet, es? pecially the Foreign Minister, is known tc favor compelling General Zollgouski to withdraw, the Diet is almost unani? mous in its support of the insurgent lender. As a result, if the issue is forced, there is a possibility that the government will fall and he replaced by what the British would regard as a probably much weaker body. Zellgouski's explpit, according to re? ports from War-flaw, has aroused in? tenso enthusiasm throughout Poland where the people are referring to Zollgouski as the Polish d'Annunzio. Lithuanians Plan Counter-Attack LONDON, Oct. 12 (By The Associated Press). -A wholesale levy of citizens who are capable of nearing arms is proceeding at Kovno with the object of a counter-attack by tho Lithuanians for the recapture of Vilna, held by Poles under General Zellgouski, says a dis? patch to the Londpn Times from Kovno. Meanwhile the Polish troops are said to have passed through Vilna on their way to the old demarcation line. This fact and the Polish position at Orany (midway between Vilna and Grodno), which cuts off the main body of the_ Lithuanian army from the Vilna sector", gives color to the possibility of a Polish advance on Kovno, the dis? patch declares. These forces are com? posed of foot, horse and artillery and are well equipped. WARSAW, Oct. 12 (By The Associ? ated Press). -The new "('entrai Lithu? anian government.'' at Vilna has pro? claimed the creation of a new state, saya n Lida dispatch to the Narod.

The proclamation further asks that ;'..? Polish troops occupying Central Lithuania hi' considered as an army of occupation. The Vilna government re? quests that it be allowed to send a commissary to these troops. A thin: proclamation is a declara? tion t.'? the Kovno government (the old Lithuanian government.

Soviet authority on the 1'olish front and the rapidly augmenting strength of anti-Bolshevik forces In southeast? ern Europe under General Wrangcl. Already consideration is being given at the department, it was said to-day. . to what may follow the end of Soviet rul?> in Russia. The prospect of i anarchy and chaos In the event of ?Soviet dissolution is very real, accord? ing to officials. The belief was ex ' pressed, however, that th<? local ; Zemstvos have been ho well organized as to maintain a semblance of order : and some cohesion of economic life until a stable government capable of obtaining the adherence of the major? ity of the Russian population shall arise. Wr?nge I Aids Peasants General Wrangel is reported to be receiving considerable support from ! the population in South Russia, and as I bis area of control increases his sys I ten. of government is being installed. ?The anti-Bolshevik leader is sub-divid j ing the big estates so that the peasants | are obtaining land to cultivate. Some official advices go so far as to indicate that if Bolshevism fails, Wran g( l may be called upon to organize h new government. The situation in Persia, where for a time Bolshevism .threatened to disrupt the country, recently has cleared satis? factorily, according to reports received by the department. The league of | Bolshevism with the Turkish National l is! s also is regarded as having been irretrievably weakened with the rout of Mustapha Kemal and his followers. Swiss Action Significant Mos; significant of the wane of So . viet influence in Europe, according to officials, was the rejection of Bolshevik I overtures by Switzerland, which is sit ? uated so as to be able to form an ac? curate opinion of the character and i future of tht' Soviet r?gime. It ?3 now also known that somewhat earlier Ru? mania rejected overtures of the So? viet, government, it. was said. ? The judgment of Socialists upon the Soviel government was expected to be i registered with particular emphasis at the meeting of the German Socialists ; at Halle, where the right wing of the : German Socialist party is expected to withdraw from the convention on the ; issue of adherence to the Moscow Third internationale. The right wing in? cludes the great majority of Socialists .n Germany, and may be considered, in the opinion of officials, as representa I tive of the growing attitude of distrust i of Socialists generally in Europe to v ard Bolshevism.

Armenia Starts New War Against Turks and Tartars Army of 34,000, Conscripted Since Last Spring, Composed of Flower of Country ERIVAN, Armenia, Oct. 9 (By Tho j Associated Press). ? Armenia has | plunged into new warfare against | bands of Turks and Tartars. Her j army, commanded by General Seboo, is estimated at .'14,000 men, who for the most part have been conscripted since last spring. All are able-bodied, their ages running from seventeen to forty live years. The reason for the lighting is the fact that the interests of the Ar? menians and the Moslems here cannot ] be reconciled. A Bolshevik mission | has been hero since the conference at j Baku of representatives of nations in j Gaucasia and Trans-Caucasia, hut the j Armenians ftro afraid to go Bolshevik, fearing they may be subjected to the same disorders that occurred at Baku recently. The only concrete . result, of the Baku conference has been a de? cision by Soviet agents to discontinue presen! attempts to forcibly commu nize Islamic countries, and they are confining themselves to propaganda, i which is principally anti-British. Tartars and Persians have been at ! tacking Armenia for the purpose of I establishing a corridor from Baku to { Angora, in Asia Minor. Armenia is in I the same miserable condition of her 'neighbors; her population is living ? from hand to mouth and has developed a sort of gypsy psychology. | Thousands of refugee?-., are ?rways on the march, and prey upon starving : hands of Tartars, who also prey upon each other. Twenty-nine Americans are engaged in the work of feeding i 25,000 orphans in Armenia, having their center of supplies at Alexandropol, ? While the Armenians believe they have food enough until February, unies , the invasion of Turk and Tar ar raid? ers is successful, crop- are short throughout the entire country due to the prevalent lawlessness.

BERLIN', Oct. 12.?Much excitement and exasperation prevails in German industrial circles over the decision o? the conference of Allied ambassadors that high-speed Diesel motors are war material which, under the terms of the peace treaty, must be destroyed. According to the decision, Germany in not permitted to construct new ones t; replace those destroyed. The Entente Commission of Con? trol already has begun to make trips of inspection to big factories, taking inventories of the motor equipment preparatory to destruction.
