This successful operation, ac- cording to Mr. Balfour, who' an- nounced it at a reccption of the Greek delegation in London, is “the prelude to an important offensive bringing greater triumphs, in which the British and Greek troops would take an equal and glorious part.” French troops. in their advance to- ward the Chemin des Dames, have gained two thirds of a mile on a two and a half mile front to the northeast and east of Sancy where they cap- tured an additional §00 prisoners. American and German patrols are doing the major part of the work on the Lorraine front, but ports of a possible great attack by one side or the other in the Vosges. In that mountanious territory, the tillery fire has developed great inten- sity and hostile airplanes have been unusualy active. While the Czecho Slovaks have been courageously and successfully carry- ing on the war against the Bolsheviki steps have been taken looking to the organizationi of a Polish division, un- der Polish officers, to wzze the fight- ing in Siberia westward to their fath- erland as intengral umits in _ the American army.

POLES ARE ORGANIZING TO FIGHT IN SIBERIA Harbin, Saturday, Sept. 7.—(By The A. P.)—A movement exceeding. per- haps that of the Czecho-Slovaks is be- ing organized by Polish officers to form 2 Polish division to fight in beria westward to their oppressed fatheriand ns integral units in American army. According to con- servative estimates an army of more than 100,000 trained militarists is im- mediately available in the regions of Harbin, Nikolsk and Vladivostok. Large corps of railway men also can be ‘utilized if necessary to take over the Chinese Eastern railway. The funds to be used in creating the Polish army are to be considered a loan to the PoMsh people or their govern- ment. 1t is believed that if the Polish or- ganization is successful the Ukrainians will begin a similar movement and be- cause of the close relationship be- tween the Magyars and the Poles it Is considered possible that many of the Magyars may be won over to the side of the entente alHes. The Poles are emphatic in declaring that they do not intend to participate in politics and that their only desire is to fight toward their own country. The Poles have asked that they be promptly granted recognition by the Tnited States government so that they may add their aid in opposing the spread of German aggression as well s win their own freedom.

P.).—Entente allied consuls have pre- sented an ultimatum to the striking employes on the Chinese Eastern rail- way demanding that the strike come to an end. as it retards military move- ments.

In doing so the govern- ment has spoken for all the co- belligerents. Almost immediately after receiving the Austrian government’s note from the minister fiom Sweden, Mr. Eken- gren, Secretary Lansing tonight issued this formal statement: United expected, has “lL am authorized by the president| to state that the following will be the | reply of this government to the Aus- tro-Hungarian note propesing an un- official conference of belligerents: “The government of the States feels that there is only one re- ply which it can make to the sugses- tion of the imperial Austro-Hungarian | government. It has repeatedly and with cntire candor stated the terms upen which the United States would consider peace and and will en- tertain no proposal for 2 conference upon a matter concerning plain.” M Lansing’s statement was given out within half an hour after he had received the Austrian proposal. It would have been forthcoming almost immediately upon the delivery of the strian note had it not been found in order to avoid the possi- Yy of grave error to make a care- ful compurison between the official text and that which was received in news despatches last night from Am- sterdam. ‘ Thus, emphasis to the declination, if any were needed. the quickness of the reply indicating the eristence of no shadow of douvt in the mind of the’administration as to hat it should be. As soon as Mr. Lansing’s reply can be put in form it will be hande to the Swedish minis- ter for i was added transmission to Austria. The Swedish legation notified the sta partment early in the after- it could be decoded om the French. and translated This consumed sev- United | which it} has made its position and purpose so ! nounced by President Wilspn in one of his speeches. That the German people themselves were to be kept in the dark by the military masters and prevented from having any voice in the peace which was to be imposed npon them Was re- garded as an assured fact. There has been some apprehension in adminis- tration circles of a combination of zreat financial interests, that know no nationality, and fear the destruction of all wealth and business by the spread of Bolshevik- ideas, might in some way be behind this movement to bring about a peace and terminate the war before it had been foughi to a clear decision. There js no such ap-. prehension on the part of the admin- istration of a cataclysm which will bring down ali civilized institutions, and instead the general staff has given every assurance thal the war is pro- ceeding to a reasonably early and complete victory which will involve the acceptance by the central powers of the only possible terms of peace— namely, those laid down by President Wilson. These terms, referred to in the re- ply dictated {oday to the Austrian note, were clearly set out inm_Presi- dent Wilson's Fourth of July®speech at Mount Vernon, as follows: “I—The destruction of every arbi- trafy power anywhere that can sep- arately, secretly ang of its single choice disturb the peace of the world: or, if it canrot be presently destroy- ed, at least its reduction to virtual impotence. “II—The settlement of every ques- tion, whether of territory. of sove- reignty, of economic arrangement, of political relationship, upon the basis of the free acceptance of that settlé- ment by the people immediately con- cerned, and not upon the basis of the material interest or advantage of any other nation or people which may de- sire a different settlement for the sake of its own exterior ifluence or mas- tery. “[II—The consent of all natione to be governed in their conduct toward to the in- | . s il i ach other by the same principles of J.
