The Paris war office reports a re- newal of German attacks in the Ar- gonne, where the French lines were penetrated at one point yesterday. Last night’s assaults are declared to have been completely repulsed. French Bombard Bavarian Towns. London, Aug. 12, 12:18 p m.—A wireless despatch received here today from Berlin, says that French avia- tors dropped bombs on Zwiebruecken, Tsank and Saint Ingbert, killing or wounding several civilians. The property damage was small. Eight persons were killed by bombs dropped from the aeroplanes. The .towns raided by French air- ships are in Rhenish Bavaria.

Zam- browo also has been captured, the statement adds. 300 Miles From Petrograd. London, Aug. 12, 12:37 p, m.—The Baltic flank of the German armies under Field Marshal Von‘ Hinden- burg 'has virtually attained the banks of the River Dvina, between Riga and | Dvinsk, with Petrograd less than 300 miles away in a direct line. Thence southward the line sweeps west, with the Russian fortress of Kovno till holding out, but next week may see a great battle on the road toward the Russian capital, Petrograd Teutonic Goal. The second line of defense upon which the Russians proposed to fall back after abandoning Warsaw has all dered untenable, and the British ana Russian press is beginning to see in the Autro-German plan an ambitious plunge deeper into Russia with Petro- grad as the goal. In the meantime the Russian rear guards are fighting desperately, es- pecially in the critical Dvina region and at Kovno, to capture which lat- ter place the Germans are making a terrific sacrifice of men. No Great Offensive in West. 1t seems plain now the purpose no great demonstration in the west, but intend rather to press to the utmost their so far brilliantly success- ful Russian campaign on the theory that conditions in France and Belgiumn are such that neither the French nor the British immediately will attempt a general offensive.

The will was filed this morning for pro- kate and is almost as clear as Potomac river water, which is as crystal as mud. Bezrucyzk, when he died, was the Dbossessor of a building at 10 sireet on which he placed a value of $7,000. As thére was a mortgage for property his equity amounted to $3,000. By the first clause in his will he gives this equity entirely to his brother, Wicenty. After again, this time to his brother and wife and their children and to various other rela- tives in Russia. He also makes be- quests to the Polish orphanage, $50, and for a chalice for the Sacred Heart church, $100. He bequeathes $60 for i church services. The testator evidently desired to be buried in proper style as he provides $75 for a coffin and $48 for carriages. This expense is to be borne by money due him from the Holy Name society. The will was drawn by Teofil H. Grabowski, a notary public, of 825 Main street. LITTAUERS SAFE IN PARIS, 1S MESSAGE | Had Not Been Heard from By Local Friends for Eight Months. Mrs. E. N. Andrews of 82 Winter street has received word of the saf- ety of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Littauer and family in Paris, who had not been heard from for eight months, Mrs. Littauer is well known here. Before her marriage she was Miss Elizabeth resided with Mr. and Mrs. Andrews for ten years. During her early childhood she at- tended Professor David N. Camp's school in this city. She is a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music, Boston, Mass., and has re- ceived an artist's d_lploma., Mrs. Andrews last received word from Mrs. Littauer Jjust before Christmas, 1914. In Het letter at that time she wrote that they were to re- move to London. Her family was in peril because the Germans were mak- ing an advance on Paris. After a short stay in London Mr. and Mrs. Littauer and children have again returned to Paris. In her card to Mrs. Andrews she states that they month war “Paris is very sad,” she writes, “and living here has grown very difficult. Still the chil- dren have been able to continue study- ing fairly well.” Because of their name, it became nécessary to change it to one which resembled a French name. “Latuer” has been selected and Mrs, Littauer explains this Mrs. Andrews by saying “German names are not worn in Paris this season.” It is just two vears now that Mr. and Mrs. Littauer first sailed for Pearis where they were to educate their children. They left this country on July 10, 1913. Mr. Littauer is a cousin of Walter Damrosch, leader of the Metropolitan Opera company, New York, OHIO AUTOIST HITS MORRIS COHN’S CAR conditions allow.

Upon his report will depend whether the United States forces there will be strengthened. Unofiicial advices said that Generai Funston had submitted a report un the situation and that Gov.
