Govin, an oil dealer at No, 90 West Street and an associate of the late Mr. Vernon, said Mrs. Vernon spent Sunday at his place at Rosedale, L. 1, and was very much depressed, declaring she saw no use in Mving after her husband's death, Telegrams found unopened in the apartment indicated that Mrs. Vernon had business worries in Pittsburgh of ® serious nature, Mrs. Vernon was a sister of Miss Rita Jolivet, the actress who, stood with Charles Frohman and George Ley Vernon on the deck of the Lusi- tania as she was sinking and to whom Frohman gave his last words: "Why fear death; it is thé most beautiful adventure in life." Miss Jolivet was saved. A week ago Mrs. Vernon had all her trunks brought to her apartment from the storage rooms of the house, say- ing she was about to start for Europe.

BERLIN (via London), July 22.— ‘The war office announced to-day that the Austro-German forces which are driving at Warsaw trom the south had compelled the Russians to retreat into the fortress of Ivangorod, about 6 miles southeast of the Polish capital. The fortress is now closely invested. “Northeast of Shavilo (in Courland) our troops, advancing concentrically and victoriously,” ‘8 the report, “eapturing 4,150 prisoners, five ma- chine guns, and 4 great quantity of baggage. A movement on the lower Dubissa led the advancing troops into the Grynkiszki-Gudsiuny district and resulted in the storming of several enemy positions. The Russians are retreating on the entire front from Lake Rakiewo to the Nieman. “South of the road from Mari Ampol to Kovno we enlarged the break and gained further ground to the east- ward, capturing four officers, 1,200 men and four machine guns, On the Narew the enemy discontinued useless counter attack.” “South of the Vistula the Russians were pressed back toward Warsaw on the line running through Blonie, Nadarszyn and Gora Kalwarja. “Yesterday by bold attacks the troops of Gen. Von Worysch's army frustrated the final attempts pf the enemy to arrest the retreat of his de- feated troops before Ivangorod. “At noon the great Bridgehead posl- tion near Lagow and Lugowawola was stormed by our brave Silesian troops., In close connection with this, with the assistance of the Austro- Hungarian troops, the enemy was thrown on the entire front into the fortress, which is now closely in- vested. “Northwest of Ivangorod, Austro- Hungarian troops are still fighting on the western bank of the Vistula. “Yesterday we captured more than 3,000 prisoners and eleven machine guns, Betwaen the Vistula and the Bug the battle which Field Marshal von Mackensen is directing {9 pro- ceeding.

Lugo- wawola is ten kilometres (6.2 miles) northwest of Zwolen.” Warsaw is to be set in flames by the Russians and destroyed when von Hindefburg’s forces penetrate the last lines of defenses before the city, according to information that reached here to-day, The Grand Duke Nicholas is said to be determined that the Polish cap- ital shail not fall into the hands of the Germans with its Government buildings gad churches unscathed. He is reported to have assigned groups of men to the task of applying the torch all over the city when the Germans close in and force his armies to evacuate, The Russians already have begun devastating villages in the path of their retreat both north and west of Warsaw and in the Riga region to the north. Bridges are being blown up, cattle driven to the rear of the Russian forces and crops either con- fiseated or destroyed, —_—_—S— FRANK HAS PASSED CRISIS, BAYONET CHARGES CARRY ITALIANS NEARER RER CORZIA | Heights Commanting Forts on Isonzo Taken, Says Rome; City’s Fall Near.
