engaged in the distribution of Ameri
can relief supplies here, has also taken
precautionary measures and officials
state to-day that unless tne DoisneviKi
come within a week nearly everything
of importance will be saved.
Three hundred carloads o! supplies
were brought out of Bialystok by the
Ked Cross before the bolsheviki cap
tured that city, and members of the
organization continued treating the
wounded until the soviet forces were
within four miles of the town. In ad
dition to saving all their equipment
the Red Cross workers brought out 8(H)
war orphans, who had been pupils in a
school established by the junior Ameri
can Red Cross. These orphans have
been installed in a village near War
saw. Red Cross officials here declared
to-day that they would remain in War
saw until the, last. About 7fl"women
workers left recently, but their depart
ure had been decided upon some time
ago, because of a decision to reduce the
local staff on August 1.
PREMIER HUGHES
I!S BITTER-ATTACK
Paris, Aug. 4 (By the Associated
Tress). Warsaw will have to be evac
uated within two or three days, in the
opinion of the French and British mil
itary experts there and the government
is-cxpected to be moved within that
pfetiod. probably to Cracow.
The renoit of the. members of the
militRrv "mission, telegraphed here last
irght, declared that the 1'olish army
along the River Bug had retreated sc
precipitately that it did' not even do-j-t'roy
the bridges behind ft. This rivet
v as Warsaw's last line of defense.
A foecial Russian cavalry corps, th
military men reported, was driving
southwest alorf the border of the Al-
lenstein district and had yesterday
reached a point 30 miles from Mlawa,
it .;! northwest of Warsaw, on the
only district railroad to Dan.ig from
the' Polish capital. Thee cavalrymen
were said to be headed through Mlawa
into the Polish corridor to the Baltic
nearhv. and thence to Pomerania.
'The experts reported that the Pol
ish forces were demoralized on the
whole northern and central fronts, and
were falling back. The military men
said they had virtually abandoned hope
cf the Poles making a stand now.
- The Polish armistice delegates re
turned to Warsaw Tuesday night, an
the Polish government ha little hope
of the speedy arranging of an armi
stice. The members of the allied mis
sion are convinced that the soviet gov
ernment does not intend to negotiate
ma armistice, they reported and de
clared their belief that the Russians
had set the next nyetingXif the negoti
ators for to-day at Minsk knowing
tliat it would be impossible for the
Poles to arrive there in time making
a pretext for further delay.
,The Polish government, it is learned
5s undecided as to whether it will seno
emissaries to Minsk.
. The report said their gravest con
cern was the. imminent cutting off of
Warsaw's direct communications with
Danzig, upon which Foland is depend
ent for military supplies.
T,ord D'Abernon, the British ambas
sador to Germany, and head of the
British mission to Poland, has returned
to Warsaw from Danzig.

Australian Premier Declares Archbish

War to Prevent Recruiting.
Melbourne, Aug. 3. W. A. Hughes,
premier of Australia, speaking here
tc-day attacked Archbishop Daniel J.
Mannix. who is now on his way from
the United States to the British hies,
after having been notified that he
would be barred from Ireland by the
British government. The premier's
speech was virtually a reply to a state
ment made public in New, York City
iy Archbishop Mannix on .luly 20. in
which he vigorously denounced Mr.
Hughes.
"Demonstrations in America favor
able to Archbishop Mannix," said Mr.
Hughes, "were carefully stage man

and the people who acclaimed him

Australia was trecr irom sectarian
bitterness than any country in uie
world. Spurred by boundless personal
ambition and hatred of Great Britain,
Archbishop Mannix has fanned'the dy-
a embers of religious bigotry into a
fierce blaze, gathering around him
every fanatic alien and Sinn Fciner
in the country. He worked incessant-
t during the war to prevent recruit
ing and help the enemy defeat the al
lies, working great harm to Australia.
Referring to an alleged threat hy
Archbishop Mannix to "deal with

Australia, the premier said:
"He may, but, first of all, he has

London, Aug. 4. The British govern
ment is irritated over what it believes
is soviet Russia's equivocation over
the British .suggestion that the Rus
sians haltr at the armistice line of do
markation in Poland and gin peace

note to the soviet government demand

The note, it is reported, contains no

ultimatum, simply requesting a quick
answer as to what soviet Russia in

TURKISH FORCES
ATTACK GREEKS
Marion, 0., Aug. 4 Decrying appeals
tt classes as a menace second only to
surrender of nationality to internation
ality, Senator Harding, in his second
front-porch presidential campaign
speech to-day, declared that if he could
choose but one, he would "rather have
industrial and social peace at home
than command the international peace
of all the world."
He asserted it would be unwise for
this country to permit "our activities
ir. seeking for peace in the old world
to blind us to the essentials of peace
at home" and added that "if America
can be made to forget the attempted
barter of nationality, well and good,"
but that "when nationality is surren
dered to intcrnationality, little else
matters and all appeal is vain."
The addressTwaa delivered to a dele
gation of Wayne county, 0., Republi
cans. Taking up the league of nations. Sen
ator Harding declared it to be the
other extreme to a referendum on a
proposed declaration of war. "I em
phatically agree," he said, "that no au
thority other than Congress may call
our boys to battle. Accepting this
truth, why make a covenant, which
violates the Rood faith of nations?"'
"Suppose," he continued, "that ' un
der article X a program of armed force
is agreed upon, and the Congress of the
t'niled States declines to respond. The
executives would be called upon to
carry on a war without constitutional
authority or we should prove our com
pact no more than a scrap of paper. We
are on the side of both safety and honor
to hold for ourselves the decision of our
obligations to the world."
Mexican Government Doe Nbt Consid
er Rebellion in Lower California
Very Serious.
Mexico City, Aug. 4. Mobilization
of only 3,000 men under the command
of General Abelardo Roderguez for the
campaign against Esteban Cantu, the
insurgent governor of Lower Lalitornia,
ha; been ordered by the government,
according to a statement issued last
night by General P. Klias Callcs, sec
retary of war. He declared more troops
would be sent to lxwer taiuornia
f necessary and would be led by Gen
eral Angel ! lores. It was indicator
that the government does not con
sider the rebellion there of great im
portance.
General Lticfo Hlanco, t.cnerai lanai-
do Aguilar, former governor of the
state of Vera Cruz, and son-in law of
the late President Carranza, and Gus
tavo Espinnoea Mirelos, former gov
ernor of Couhila, and one of the lead
ing Carranza adherents, are believed
to have joined Governor Cantu, ways

cial advices.
The Chinese frstcrnal union has re
ceived a message from Chinese in Low
er California, saying Governor Cantu
has demanded a loan of $.VX),000. but
that, following a consultation with the
Chinese minister at Washington, it
ha been decided to refuse to meet the
demand, as uch a step might be. con
strued aa aiding the rebellion.
Chinese and Japanese residents of
Lower California have sent' an appeal
to the United States asking thst they

Offensive Started Along a 60-Mile
Front in Asia Minor British
Are to Act With Greeks.
Constantinople, Aug. 3 (By the As
sociated Press). Turkish nationalist
forces opened a bitter offensive against
the Greeks along a fiO mile front in
Asia Minor on Monday. The battle
line extends along the Bagdad rail
road westward from Kutahia to Si
tnav. Greek forces in Anatolia are being
reinforced from Thrace and, in con
junction with British attachments,
have advanced eastward from Ismid to
Ada bazar. The impression is growing
here that the Greeks and British will
counter against the Turkish action in
the Smyrna district with movements
of their forces through Anatolian and
Black sea ports, thus taking railway
and occupying all strategic points.
Tzr.et Pasha, former grand vizier, has
been commissioned by the Sultan's gov
ernment to go to Angora and attempt
to reconcile the nationalists.
Desperate attacks against Greek
forces, which had advanced beyond
their area of occupation were made
on Sunday by the nationalists at Si-
mav, about 110 miles northeast of
Smyrna. The action lasted 2t hours
and the Greeks.were obliged to retreat
having loot 50 dead and 100 wounded.
They were not pursued.

Chicago, Aug. 4. Excited general
(selling brought about a sensational
smash in wheat prices to-day. The
market opened 8 to 13 cents lower with
December $2.18 to.. $2.21, and March
$2.21. Most of the selling was said to

turn their wheat into casii. After a
few minutes, however, the market
bounded as much as 11 cent upward.
For the first time since trading in
futures was resumed the pit was filled
wjtli traders. Business was on a lug

largely .on unfavorable financial re
