The most important point of the
present front is that portion of the
Vistula just north of the river San.
Here the Germans in considerable
numbers are attempting " to force the
river and by so doing flank the Rus
sian positions along the Tanew which
as yet have shown no signs of yield
ing to the frontal attack-.
The wooded approach to the river
at this point allows the Germans suc
cessfully to mask their operations
and to conceal their batteries, but the
record of the fighting up to Saturday
shows that no real advantage has yet
been gained by them.
The -importance of this move is well
recognized by the Russians since if
successful it would unite the German
forces on the left side of the "Vistula
with those dperating on the other
side, in Lublin province, against the
Tanew front.
German activity appears to he lim
ited at present to the Dneister and
Vistula rivers.
Germans Aim at Verdun.
Paris, June 28, 6:20 a. m. The Ger
mans, in fighting furiously at Bagatelle
and in the trenches of Calonne, are
seeking to approach the strongly for
tified town of Verdun, according to
Lieut. Col. Rouoset, military critic of
the Petit Parisienne. He believes, they
s they now are falling back to the Gnila
Lipa river, which runs from the north
ward of Przemysl and through Rohatyn
to Halicz, where it joins the Dneister.
Military writers here anticipate that
this- backward move will necessitate a
total withdrawal from the Dneister,
and that the Russians will make their
next real stand on the river Bug.
These writers also hold that though
the Russian retreat must mean a great
retardation to the prospects of a Mus
covite counter offensive, it also has
robbed the Austro-German forces of
the complete victory that might have
been theirs if they had been able to
force the Russians to fight to a finisn
instead-of withdrawing their armies
virtually intact.
In the west the French offensive
seems less active than for some time
past, pending consolidation of the
ground already won and a clearer in
sight into the next German move.
On far-off Lake Victoria Nyanza, in
Africa, the British war office reports a
fruitful British attack on the German
fortified port of Bukoba, the moye
ment being made both from land and
water, with the result that on June 25
the fort was destroyed, 1 thp wireless
station put out of action, many boats
sunk, and guns captured and destroyed.
Rumor continues busy with the Bal
kans, but those who know the secret
of the Bulgarian mystery are awaiting
their own time for divulging it. The
only fact now public property is that
the Bulgarians still are receiving of
fers from both sides.

Board Assossors Busy in City
and Will Require 60 Days
Probably to Wind Up La
bors County Authorities
Say Letter is a General One
to All Counties in State.
"The township board of assessors
wiii make an increase'in assessments
of from 5 to 10 per cent on a
straight-through average, some prop
erty and assessments perhaps being
lower and others of course higher,"
said a member of , the township
board of tax assessors and added:
"The corporation commission has
written the county authorities, setting
forth that the Mecklenburg assess
ments have been too low, and that
the commission will look for more
tax money from the city and county,
the city coming in incidentally in this
connection, during the next four
years." The members .of the board ot
township assessors named by the coun
ty commissioners, and with Mr.
Thomas Griffith as general head of
the board, include Messrs. R.
Yonnsr. W. B. Davis and George PHi-
fer. while Mr.-D. M. Abernethy is in
charge of the Ward Seven assess
ments, and Mr. Ed M. Bell is in
charge of the Dilworth assessments,
it was said.
The three assessors named nave
already accomplished a large part of
their work in Ward One and Ward
Three, leaving Wards Two and Four
in the old citv limits for their next
tasks with the five outlying wards ex
clusive of the two which win De tas
en care of by Mr. Abernethy and Mr.
Bell.
It will require 60 . days to complete
the work ahead of the board, under
the suDervision of Mr. Griffith, and
very probably a longer time will be
necessary.
The increase in assesments refer
red to by the state corporation com
mission, does nnt affect the .assess
ments of corpor ation and bank .stock
so far as the local assessors are con
cerned, as the state commission ac
cording to custom and law, prepares
these assessments and ngures ior
the whole state every year and
sends a copy of the same to the
county authorities, usually early in
the month of September.
With the above situation presented
to him by a reporter today, a well
known citizen and holder of consider
able property in the city and su
burbs, sai dof the increase as report
ed by the member of the assessing
board:
"This looks rather hard, particular
ly in view of war conditions that are
affecting this country so much. How
ever I do not know that the propos
ed increase in assessments, and
therefore in taxes, of between 5 and
10 per cent, can be obviated, - when
the machinery and power of the state
is behind the issue. I imagine that
this proposition would be likely to
result in what you commonly call
a 'howl,' however, if the assess
ments turn out according to the be
lief of the member of the assessing
board for Mecklenburg."
This ritizen did not further commit
himself nor express , an opinion as to
the developments that may come
about when the situation is generally
known to the taxpayers of the city
anH rniintv
A member of the board of alder-
mpn discussine the above situation,
predicted that the increase in the
assessed values in tne city ana cuuu
ty would exceed the figures given in
the above article. . '
Referring to the letter above-mentioned,
county officials said this af
ternoon, when - acquainted with the
News story as to taxes, that the in
crease in taxes as ordered by the state
commission, is a general order and
that the letter received here was in
their opinion but a copy of a letter
sent to all of the counties.
Mr. W. F. Stevens is county tax as
sessor, named by the state, while the
county commissioners- appoint asses
sors for each township, Mr. Griffith
being head" of the Charlotte township
assessors.
The letter from the state tax com
mission, composed of the corporation
commission with one man added, says,
however:
"There must be an increase in the
assessments this year. We desire you
to impress this fact on the township
assessors."

REFUSES TO
DISCUSS REPORT
By Associated Press.
El Paso, Tex., June 28. General
Hureta declined today to discuss
the events which led to his deten
tion here yesterday on charges of
implication in a plot to set afoot a
new Mexican revolution. He stood on
his declaration of last night that he
would not enter Mexico at the head
of an armed feree."" "
Leaders here of the Villa and Car
ranzsL factions were for the most part
silent on recent developments. It is
no secret. Huerta and his chief adher
ents, including Generals Orozco, Cas
tro, Tages and Caraveo are being
watched closely.
Huerta breakfasted with his daugh
ter's family. To newspaper men later
he said; "I will make no statement
to the press until After my hearing
next Thursday."
There were a number of Mexicans
waiting to see General Huerta and
as the forenoon wore on others ar
rived in almost a continuous stream.
Little knots of y curious persons gath
ered in nearby streets and throughout
the day there was an occasional "viva
Huerta." . .
"The United States authorities were
justified in arresting, General Huerta,"
said Miguel Diaz Lombardo, foreign
minister in the Villa cabinet. "I regard
yesterday's demonstration at the feder
al building the best proof that there
is an organized movement of Huerta
adherents here. Fifteen minutes after
Huerta -reached the collector's office
the building was surrounded: by a
thousand Mexicans, practically all
Huerta adherents and sympathizers.
The bonds of $15,000 and $7,500,
under which Huerta and Orozco were
released respectively, Lombardo re
gards as entirely inadequate. "It is ab
solutely not worth considering, 'saia
he. "If Huerta or Orozco plans to en
ter Mexico this bond will not stop
them for an instant."
Villa representatives here and offi
cials in Jaurez are watching closely
for military activity across the border,
Small bands of unarmed men have
been crossing the border in the last
few days, supposedly with the inten
tion of mobilizing, at some point south.
So far no indications of a concerted
movement or an attempt to mobilize
have been discovered.
El Paso was flooded, today with cir
culars containing an interview by
Huerta and printed in New York at
the time of his arrival there. In this
interview Huerta characterized the
Villa faction as "bandit leeches;" de
clared Carranza was standing on an
American; platform; and predicted that
peace would be restored only when
some strong man got control. - ,
FOUR MEN ARREST
ED NEAR HOME OF
GOVERNOR SLATON
Atlanta, Ga., June 28. Four men ar
rested between last midnight and dawn
by the militia guarding former Gov
ernor Slaton s country home, were
placed in the county jail today and are
held pending action by the military
authorities. It was stated that - the
men " were found in a" road near - the
Slaton estate and failed to explain the
reasons for their presence there to the
satisfaction of . the militiamen. .
J No arms were found on the men.
Carranza?s Army Advanc
ing On Mexico City
Meets With Defeat
By Associated Press.7
. Washington, June 28. Further con
firmation of the defeat of the Carran
za army advancing on Mexico City,
brought to Vera Cruz by an American
from : the capital, was received today
at the state department.
The department's dispatch said Car
ranza was rushing troop trains from
Vera Cruz to the capital and that fight
ing at the hour . the courier started
still was going on . in. the outskirts
of Mexico City. A repetition of the
"tragic ten deys" which preceded the
overthrow of Madero was feared. .
Generals Huerta And

nr a-a. t tin t j a
witsumsiuu, juiie to. lusiue aeians
of the plot to restore -a Huerta re
gime to Mexico, nipped in the bud
byl the United States, .began trickling
out - today through the net of official
secrecy. . ,
General Huerta and his . chief lieu-,
tenant, Pascual Orozco, are under
federal detention at El Paso. Other
Mexicans nearly a score who had a i
part in the plot that failed and prob- j
amy suiue Americans, are unaer sur
veillance by the department of jus
tice. .
Secretary Lansing conferred today
with Asistant Attorney General War
ren and it become apparent that the
department of justice intends to sift
the case to find the backers of the
new revolution. Where the trial might
lead in the United States is only a
matter of conjecture. All officials were
steadfastly silent on that feature, but
it Is generally believed by those in
close touch with Mexican affairs that
the coup was to have the financial-support
of some prominent American in
terest's. Official information disclosed that
weeks ago Huerta, in. apparent seclu
sion at his country place on Long Is
land, offered his services to General
Iturbide, one of the exile colony in
New York, and at the same time
sent an emissary to Washington to
ask if he would be persona grata to
this government if he took a part in
Mexican affairs.
Iturbide declined Huerta's " company
and simultaneously Washington sent
word to the former dictator that he
would be non grata, decidedly so.
Immediately thereafter, the official
advices here say, Huerta renewed hi3
offer tp Iturbide, with a modified pro
posal that Iturbide accept Huerta's
aid without Huerta's leadership but
jitb-the.. co-operation of his associates.
Officials here, and diplomatists with
Mexican interests say Iturbide accept
ed this latter offer. . "
In view of this information officials
are . puzzled to know just ' how much
0 fan active part Huerta intended
to take in a movement on Mexican
soil, although they have no doubt
that , at least he intended to take
charge of affairs on the border.
In that connection it is known that
for weeks a party of prominent Mex
icans, styled - by the Carranza and
Villa adherents "Huertistas" and
"Cientificos," have' been maintaining
an active junta In El Paso, in con-
1 stant communication with Huerta
and, other members of the exile col
ony in New York; and maintained
among themselves the form of a pro
visional government, with a president
and members of a cabinet. Advices to
Mexicans here have continually indi
cated that the junta was planning
some definite move. '
Secretary Lansing disclosed today
that the initiative had been taken
by. the department of justice. He de
clined to say whether any considera
tion of American policy was involved,
but it is known authoratively that the

Outstanding Results
Of A Year Of The
Great European War
One - year ago today the Austrian
archduke, Francis Ferdinand, and his
wife were shot and killed in the
little Bosnian town of Serajevo by ,
Garvio Frinsip. It was the act of
Prinzip, a poor student, which ulti
mately resulted in ten nations going,
to war. These nations are, on one
hand, Great Britain, France, Russia,
Serbia, Japan, Belgium, Italy and
Montenegro, and, on the other, Ger- j
many, Austria and Turkey. The war .
to date, according to conservative es
timates compiled from the best avail
able reports, has caused a loss to
the various belligerents ot more than
six million men, dead," wounded and
prisoners, and more than five hun
dred ships. Of these about 120 ,were
war vessels.
The outstanding results on land
are these:
Theg reater portion of Belgium is
under the control of Germany.
Germany has been driven from tne
Far East.
A part' of the Dardanelles is in the
possession of the allied troops.
Portions of France and Russia are
in the possession of German troops.
A strip of Alsace has been taken
from Germany. -
On the continent of Africa parts of
territorial possessions have been lost
hy both sides. -
Various island possessions of Ger
many have been taken by rthe forces
of the allies.
Italian troops are in possession
of a strip of Austrian territory.-
The outstanding results at sea are
these :
German and Austrian mercantile
shipping has been driven from all the
open seas. . .. ..,
War vessels of the allied nations
having a total displacement "of ap
proximately 192,000 tons have been
sent to the bottom.
The greater portions of the German
and allied fleets in the North sea re
main intact. . -
Except lor communication thro"
Holland and the Scandinavian na
tions, Germany is cut off from the
rest of the world.
Effo"ts on the part of the Germans
to place the British Isles in a similar
predicament has resulted in the sink
ing , by submarines of hundreds of
vessels flying the flags of the allied
and neutral nations. , .
The sinking in this manner of the
Cunard liner Lusitania ' with the loss
of more than one hundred American
lives precipitated a. request upon the
part of the United " States that such
practices insofar as they might men
ace Americans, be stopped.
Prin zip's crime was committed on
June 28. An investigation disclosed t
what was alleged to be proof that the
assassin was was the tool of a group
of Serbians. On July 23, after con
