. 11§ ADVANCE THROUGH LAND LAID WASTE Germans Continue Attacks Against | Russ Armies Defending Warsaw with Undiminished Energy. GREAT GUNS TRAVEL SLOWLY LONDON, July 24-—The Austrians and Germans are pushing their great attacks against the Ruselan armies defending Warsaw with undimin- ished energy, and at some points re- port that progress has been made. They are operating, however, through country which the retiring troops have laid waste and the roads are little suited for the movement of heavy artillery which is necessary for the bombardment of the great fortresses along their way. Force Russ to Retreat. It 18 not expected, therefore, that de- cisive actions on any of the fronts will be fought for a few days, although the battle between the Vistula and the Bug rivers, where Fleld Marshal von Mac- kengzen's army is advancing toward the Lublin-Chelm raflroad, has reached a climax. Here, according to the German officlal communication, issued this after- noon, the Germans have succeeded in breaking the obstinate resistance of the | Russians at several points and forced them to retreat, The Ruselans, however, have had lots | of time to prepare a serles of positions and it is believed that they will make every effort to hold them until it be- | comes neceasary or their army is able to | retiro from Warsaw. To the south of Warsaw in front of | the fortress of Ivangorod, the Russlans | have returned to the Vistula river, which with its forts and a lack of bridges, it is belleved, must form a bar- rier which the Austrlans and Germans will find it difficult to overcome. Hindenburg Makes Progress. The northern German army, under Fleld Marshal von Hindenburg, also is reported to have made progress; but it is stated that it has not yet been able | to cross the Narew river, another natural | defense of the Russian triangle behind the Polish capital. In fact, all along this front the Russians have resumed their counter-attacks from the fortress of No- vogeorgiveki, but these, according to the German accounts, falled in tneir pur- poses. Before Rozan, another of the river fortresses, the Germans declare they have stormed and taken two forti- fied villages and captured a number of prisoners. Opinion here is still divided whether Grand Duke Nicholas, the Russian com- mander-in-chief, will accept a decisive battle, or is simply trying to inflict as heavy losses on the enemy as is possible | before withdrawing from Warsaw and the whole Polish salfent to Brest Litoysk and the Bug river line. ¢ Sévere Fighting In West.

AMERICA GIVES PINAL WARNING Washington Tells Kaiser Further Violations of U. 8. Rights Held “Deliberately Unfriendly.” WILL MAKE NO COMPROMISE WASHINGTON, July 24.—The text of the American note on subma- rine warfare presented at Berlin to- day by Ambassador Gerard, was Argonne and in the Vosges on the western battlefield, but without bringing any very material changes in the positions of the opposing armies. It 1s reported unotficially that the Ger- mans are massing troops at el for a more extended offensive, but the official communications do not indicate that anything in the natiire of a serious engagement has occurred there as yet. That the Germans will attempt an of- fensive here is consjdered by the military | observers as quite likely as they assert that the recent activity of the German crown prince’s army shows that they are hoping to weaken the French hold on Verdun. Mackensen Oontinues Blows. PETROGRAD (Via London), July 23.— Field Marshal von Mackenzen, operating between the Bug and the Vistula, con-| tinues hds wild sledgehammer blows ! agalnst the Chelm-Laublin line of the Rus- | lans, directing them now particularly against the city of Lublin. His immedi- | ate objectives are Belzyce, Travnikl, | Vosslavitze and Grubechow. Belzyce is| twelve miles southwest of Lublin, Of only slightly less importance in this | region are the battles on the Bug be-| tween Krylow and Dobrotovra. West of | ‘arsaw the Russians have moved back 10 thelr second line of defenses at Blonie and Nadarzyn and their positions in front of Ivangorod. The latter positions | are regarded the strongest in the Russian line as is indicated by the fact that the Germans assaulted them furiously in | their former campaigns against Warsaw @nd were unable to breach them. To the northward battles are raging at Novogeorgievskl and along the entire Narew line, which embraces the strong points of Pultusk and Rozan, command- ing the crossing in the bend of the River | of Europe, made public here last night. It reveals that the imperial Ger- mah government has' been informed it is the intention of the United Btates to regard as “‘deliberately un- friendly” any repetition by the com- manders of German naval vessels of acts in contravention of American rights, The United States announces that it will continue to contend for the freedom of the seas “from whatever quarter vio- Iated without compromize and at any cost.” Strongest Srateme=¢ Made.

Herr von Jagow took the doocument and !'made a direct reply on it to Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg, the imperial chan- cellor. The note probably will be pub- lished In Germany some time tomorrow. It was sent this afternoon to the foreism office manifolders, who made a num- ber of coples of it. The work of trans- lating it into German then began.

In the Baltic region the Germans are seeking contact with the Russian main forces between Mitau and Shavil The Germans appear to be closely co- ordinating these separate movements. The resulting gemeral battle on three fronts protecting Warsaw is regarded by the Russian military critics as the most important of any struggle heretofore in the eastern theaters. They compare the entire circumscribed region to a great fortress. The central idea of the German cam- paign is assumed to be to secure control of the Vistula line. With this strong natural barrier adequately fortified, the military critics, say Germany might hope to keep Russia in check with compara- tively small forces and then throw its entire weight against France.
