A short time la- ter, it is said, German soldiers, head- ed by an officer, appeared with ma- chine guns and/fired into the crowds remaining in the square. Forty-seven pei'sons were Iilled, the statement says. The trouble has delayed the depart- ure of Paderewski’for Warsaw. Renewed activity by Ruthenian and Bolshevist forces at Lemberg is re- ported in an official statement issued Dby the Polish army headquarters here. They are said to be attacking vigor- ously south of that city, having heavy German artillery. The Poles are said to have been forced to fall back. Tt is said that the forces commanded by Petlura, the Ukrainian peasant lead- er, are joining in the attack. If more troops are sent to Lem- berg, the ,expedition against Vilna, reported in Bolshevist hands, may be embarrassed. There are not men enough for both operations. The Po- lish chief of staff has been unable to matniain communication with the Al- lies becaude of the use of the wireless telegraph by {he" Germans. Former ysoldiers and prisoners salled on Premier Morazewski this morning and informed, him they were ready to fight if they weére given their back pay so that they might care for their families.
