ton quiet prevailed both there and
in the city and there wa no Indica
tion of a repetition of the exciting
scenes of yesterday and last night
which followed the announcement of
governor that he had commuted
the death sentence of Led M. Frank
. lifn lmorisonment. In the city the
near-beer saloons, which had been
closed yesterday by order of the au
thorities, were auoweu iu ro-ui.
There were no crowds In the streets.
Troops were summoned to the Sla
ton home alter a crowd of several
hundred men and boys had marched
there and started a demonstration In

the Frank sentence. The crowd was
quickly dispersed Dy me soiujoro,

to leave, some of the demonstrators

threw missiles at the officers. Two
officers and a private were sl'Kb.Oy
hurt. There were no-shots fired, tne
soldiers advancing with fixed bayo
nets. No civilian was Injured. .
The appearance of the crowd fol
lowed several street corner gather
ings in the center of the city. Gov

few of his personal friends who were
deputized by Sheriff Mangum at the
governor's residence.

the crowd shouted the governor con

protect Frank, at the state farm at
MIUedgevMe. The sheriff there was
instructed to notify the governor In
the event of any signs of crowds gath
ering.
When the soldiers lined up with
flxod bayonets to disperse the crowd,
stones, bricks, and bottles were thrown
at them. A brick struck Lieutenant
Arnold Parker and rendered him un

London. June 22. Nothing
but a sudden and unexpected:
blow by Grand Duke Nicholas,'
commander in chief of the Ens-'
sian armies, can now save Lem
berg, capital of Galicia, in tho '
hands of the Russians for
nearly ten months, from falling
into Aufitro-German possession.,'
Almost immediate evacua
tion of the city by the Russians
is expected in London. After,
yielding on the Grodk line the
Russian armies retired vir
tually to the outskirts of the
city of Lemberg itself .
An Austria official aniounce-,
ment speaks of the Russians
as attacking at many places, '
but these engagements are as
sumed in London to be merely
rear guard actions to enable
the main forces to withdraw in
safety. British observers be-
lieve the retirement of the Rus
sians up to the present time,
has been a well executed move
ment. Dispatches reaching ,
London say that the armies of
Emperor Nicholas are virtually,
intact and that their ability to
. es-- TAlw0t. resume the initiative, once their
lctures, Stories and Booklets , , ,
' ranks are refilled and ammuni
tion replenished, has not been
greatly impaired.
