ARGONNE AND VOSGES

SCENE OF WEST BATTLE

Allied Military Critics Do Not

See How It Is Possible for

Russians to Hold Warsaw and

Protect Nicholas' Big Army.

,IONrON. July 12 The Aumtro

OojigMia ooatlnue to presn the Rus

sian force defending Warsaw bet

whif they made progress at Rome

points they have not made any serious

breach,' in the well fortified inner lines.

The Russians have been pressed back

to the bridgehead positions directly

, west of Warsaw, and Into the fortress

of Ivan go rod further to the southwest

on the Vistula. But at these points

they are probably in better position

to oaTer'-stubborn reeistenee to the op

ponents. The Argonne ami Vosge are still

the scenes of severe fighting in the

west. The accounts of opposing

bodies are as contradictory as ever

hut it would appear that the French

are the aggressors in the Vosges and

made some progress. The Germans

offset this by a partial successful of

fensive hi Argonne. The Italians con

tinue their attache along the Isonto

River. The, battle for the conquest

of" Oorftfs and Carso plateaus is1 as

suming larger proportlonsjnore men

are engaged than In any previous Bat

tle on the Italian front.

The Italians claim marked progress

while the Austrian consistently re

port that all attacks were repulsed. A

short 'official account, Issued tonight

of the recent fighting on the Galllpoli

peninsula, indicates the engagements

have been of minor nature but fav

ored the allies.

. In the Warsaw district two attacks

are being made from the north along

the Narew River bv Field Marshal von

Utatoaburg, and that Field Marshal

von Jtacbenaen who is directing from

the southeast, between the Vistula

and Bug rlcers, has apparently held

up or the Oennans are waiting for the

opportune moment to move forward

and catch the Russians should it be

decided to evacuate Warsaw. The Ber

lin official statement does not claim

any advance for von Machensen nor

doea the report, although it states the

Russians ceased their counter attacks

along the Narew, does not mention

any success on the part of von Hin

denhurg. However, should the Russians hold

Warsaw, It would surprise the military

critics In the allied countries who

have discounted the loss of the city,

attacked from all aides bv opponents

jmeaeaaed of suoerioritv In guns and

ammunitions. Grand Duke Nicholas,

although able to deliver some sting

ing counter attacks, indicting heavy

louses on the Teutons, must In the

Aral place, consider the safety or hia

army, the loss of which would be more

serious Jor the Russians than a retire

moot from the Poliah capital and the

territory around it.

AUSTRIAN OFFICIAL

Southern Poland, namely. th battle

'or the possession of the lmpiaut

and lvangorod, of these strategically

' important cities. The Russians, al

though clinging deaperately to every

undulation on water course in a brok

en sandy country, have been 'driven

.from one advance position to another

and forced to fall back upon the last

main line f defense south of the rail

road. The long battle line la shorten

4 considerably owing to the north

ward movement of the armies, the

Russians thereby being enabled to

concentrate In heavier force. But the

tame factor frees considerable mosses

of Teuton troops to be used for a con

centric attack against the new line.

The advance was executed under

highly unfavorable eoaditions. The

FINAL NOTE TO

GERMANY IS

DISPATCH

Text of Last American Note to

Germany Will Be Made Public

Tomorrow Morning; Congress

May Be Called.

WASHINGTON. July 22. The Un

ited States, before determining the!

next step in its general diplomatic pol

icy, will, for a brief period, await tn-j

dlcations from official quarters in Iler-,

lln as to the reception ot the new note

warning Germany that the loss of Am

erican lives thiough the further viola-1

tlon of neutral rights would be re

gal ded as "unfriendly."

The note was started on its way to

Berlin late last night and probably

win ue delivered ny AniDassauor uer-j

ard tomorrow. It will be given out

for publication in Saturday morning's !

newspapers. Everywhere in 'official'

quarters it ia pointed out that the doc-t

umeut speake the final word on how,

the United States will regard further,

transgressions of its rights. I

The general trend of comment wasj

that a repetition of such a disaster as,

befell the Lusitaula would mean the

convening of Congress by the Presl-i

dent for consideration of the action

t0 be taken. In the event the status)

quo is maintained, however, there are

indications, through official and un-(

official channels, that German submar

Ines, In the future, will conform to the;

rules of International la win saving;

the lives of Americans on unresisting,

merchantmen.

The Piealdent will take up very

soon, the situation that has arisen

with Great Britain over the interfer

ence with American commerce by thai

Allies. For several weeks the note

has been practically completed, ad

dressed to tlie British ,'fovernnient

reiterating the protest against the de

viations from International law in the

operations of the Order In Council

against commerce with Germany.

This baa not been sent because the.

President is unwilling to give the im

pression in Berlin that the controver

sy between the United States and1

Germany is In any way to be condi

tioned on the progress of the Ameri

can government's negotiations with

other belligerents. It became known

that It Indications are that the new

American note to Germany is received

with a friendly spirit, there appears

no intention t0 further violate the

neutral right of the high seaB, that

the protest to Great Britain would be
