Information indicating that some elements in Germany are deter mined to help the Russian bolsheviki continues to be received here, it is said in military circles. The latest report is regarding Upper Silesia, where Ger man armed forces have been assembling on the border of the plebiscite area. Newspapers here to-day published des patches stating that '4,000 security guards had arrived in Upper Silesia by special train. For weeks, it is declared, Germans have been hauling ammunition into Silesia, hiding it beneath beets in rail road cars. Military authorities say the Germans are advertising their troop movements in this region for the pur pose of compelling the Poles to trans fer forces from the east and thus weaken the bolshevik front. Warsaw papers recently printed re ports that eight Zeppelins had crossed Poland headed eastward, and army headquarters afterwards confirmed this information. There is much speculation as to whether the Zeppelins bore officers en route to join the bolsheviki or were carrying away men named for extra dition by the allies. General Alexis A. Brusiloff, former commander-in-chief of Russian armies, is understood to have assumed command of the bolshevik ofl'ensive against Po land. In Polish military circles they . . , r r .... J a. say the soviet attacK is nesignea ia overrun Lithuania and extend the bolshevik front westward to East Prussia.

Fighting continues along the north ern sectors of the front, but all soviet attacks have been repulsed aolng the upper branches of the Derensina river, according to announcement. MADE GOOD SLEUTHS.
