Paris, Aug. 6. The fate of Warsaw Mill hangs In the. Balance. The latest news reaching Paris which was somewhat sparse, indicates that the Bol- sheviki are making little progress, that the Impulse which carried them forward ontlnuously during the last week has spent itself, but that they apparently are gathering force for a fresh onslaught. Military observers here still cherish the hope that the situation may yet bo saved. \The situation of the Polish armies, although moat critical, la by no means desperate,\ writ Gen. Delacroix In the Temps. \Since they still have re- source and are disputing foot by foot all the territory of tho Vistula and the San, all depend on their powers of re- sistance and the means at their disposal. Jn war despair la only Justified when morals, strength and the power of a reaction are destroyed. That I not the case with Poland.\ Advices received by the French For- eign Office from the Polish front give the impression that there has been a lull In the fighting and a stabilisation of the line during the last two days. The enemy artillery apparently I short of ammunition and there has been delay in bringing up guns and shells to a position frrtm which they can be rushed for the final dash to within shelling range of Warsaw. Airplane scouts over the Red line, probably members of tho Kosciusko squadron, report a heavy movement across tho Rug River of stores of am- munition, guns and materials of all kinds by the enemy. Several squadrons of cavalry- - arc reported to have been blvouaclng on tho same spot for the last twenty-fou- r hours. The Foreign Office has no official con- firmation of the report received from Warsaw that Gen. Maxlne Weygand, assistant to Marshal Foch, has offered to assume auprcrr.e command of the Po- lish army. No official Bolshevik communication concerning tho fighting waa picked up by the Eiffel Tower wireless station from Moscow y. The only message re- ceived confined Itself to roportlng tho meeting of the Third Internationale and a protest against \Polish atrocities.\ AMERICA BESCtftS GERMANS.

Special to Tub Beg axd N Ynx Itusitn. Washington, Aug. fi President Wil- son conferred y with Secretary of State Colby and Under Secretary of State Davis regarding the momentous situation glowing out of the Bolshevik advance on Warsaw. The course the t'nlted States is to take In view of the world developments was discussed. Information received by the depart- ment bears out the conclusion that hope for a peaceful understanding between the Bolshevik Government and the Al- lied Powers ha been almost abandoned and that a decision has been readied 1 1 extend military aid to Poland, which Is reported to be stiffening Its resistance. All the movements of the Reds arc re. garded as a definite challenge to the Allied Powers and to Great Britain especially and the challenge has been accepted as a matter of These developments were discussed with the President. That some decision was leached was Indicated hy the ad- mission that while silence is necessary now, there would he something to be made public later. There was no intimation that the re- cent Cancelling of furloughs and the culling of the naval reserves In the Norfolk naval district have anything to do with the present crisis. Significant Information was received to-d- by tha State Department bearing upon the stiffening of the resistance of the Poles and the extension of the Bol- shevik activities. A despatch from the American Legation at Warsaw said that the Polish Government had decided not to be stampeded Into an unnecessarily hurried exit from Warsaw, and would resist to tho utmost the Bolshevik of- fensive that continues to be directed against the capital despite the Polish readiness for an armistice. The Poles, the despatch says, fully realise the possible necessity of evacuating their capital but are firm in their purpose to fight to the Inst. The attitude of the Rusniaas Is re- garded as a dear Indication of their intention to bring Poland to her knees and establish Soviet control of central Kurope as the first step in the world war against Western governments. The first movement In this ambitious pro- gramme Is necessarily aimed at the far flung empire of Great Britain, but there is no one In government circle here willing to admit that the success of such a programme would destroy the en- tire fabatc of flic Versailles peace. This official communication was re- ceived y by the Polish Legation from Warsaw, showing an improvement In the situation : \Our counter action In the region of Brody Is developing satisfactorily. We occupied Sranlslawczyk and Brody. The line of the River Bug Is In our hands. In the lighting In tho region of Wlsna we advanced and defeated Bolshevik regiments. The attacks on Nablrsare re- pulsed. Countless refugees from the ter- ritories occupied by Holshevlkl are filling the country and especially Warsaw. Food help Is necessary. The feeling of civil- ian population and volunteers Is good.\ An announcement by the State Depart- ment said : 'The department's Information tended to Indicate that the Bolshevlkl were pur- posely avoiding definite commitments with respect to the opening of armistice negotiations In order to prolong the hos- tilities and carry the fighting through to Warsaw.\ POLES RESIST REDS IN STRONG POSITIONS Throw Enemy Back on Left Bank of Bug River.

BRITISH LABOR WILL REFUSE TO FIGHT Continued1 from First Pag. consequence of the Invasion of ethno- graphical Poland by the troop of the Russian Government.\ It was the n of this statement that aroused British labor leaders. The publication of Kameneff' answer to the Premier left diplomatists aghast. They railed It the shrewdest and clever- est move of Ita kind since the series of German replies to President Wilson were made. On the fftce the statement makes out a clear can on behalf of the Soviet, vindicating the delay In the Po lish armistice negotiations. But author- itative reports from British sources of the most reliable character In Warsaw have convinced officials hejre that the Poles arc perfectly sincere In their de- sire to conclude peaco at the earliest opportunity and are not guilty of caus- ing the delay In tho negotiations. British officials aro convinced that the Poles r re right In their accusa- tion that the Bolshevlkl cut their ar- mistice delegate off from communica- tion with Warsaw when the Reds issued their ultimatum refusing to negotiate an armistice unless the agreement also In- cluded peace. Kameneff In his statement emphasizes strongly tho terms armistice and peace, using them together throughout the Rut and other correspondence lei ling up to the negotiations In order to sustain the Bolshevist contention that tit Polish delegates should have been equipped with the power of negotiate both an armistice and peace simulta- neously. t'or lcn Office officials, however, de- clared that this was absurd, as It WJ never possible to negotiate more than the military conditions In connection With an nrmlsUee the political terms In- volved In a pesos treaty coming later. It was pointed out that even the allied armistice terms for Germany did not provide for disarming , the Germans pending the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. They Insist that the Polish delegates were empowered to negotiate armistice terms which would have been a sufficient guarantee to the Reds against a resuscitation of the Tollsh armed forces. The reasons prompting the rejection of the proposal for a policy for uniting the Russian border Statee to start a campaign, like that of Gen. Wrangel's. to divert tho Bolshevlkl from Toland, If the Reds refuse to enter Into a Polish peace treaty along the lines demanded by the Allies, Includes the determina- tion by Premier I.lovd George not to commit his Government to any more White \adventures\ In Russia under any circumstances, all of them hereto- fore having proved futile and cosily. REDS ASK GUARANTEE BEFORE ARMISTICE Anxious for Direct Negotia- tions With Poland. London. Aug 6. Leo Kameneff of the Russian Soviet delegation here, in his statement to Premier Lloyd George giving the Soviet Government's reply to Great Britain's note of Tuesday with regard to the delay In the armistice negotiations between Russia and Po- land, declares the Soviet Government never desired to combine the negotia- tions for an armistice with negotiations for peace, hut that It demands that the terms of the armistice include reason- able guarantees which would prevent at- tempts on the part of Poland to use the period of the armistice for the renewal of hostile acts. The note continues: \The Russian Soviet Government again declares that It Is firm lh the recognition of the freedom and Inde- pendence of Poland, and its willingness to grant to the Polish State wider front- iers than were Indicated by the Supreme Council and mentioned In the British note of July 20.\ With regard to the proposed I ondon peaie conference the note says In sub- stance that the Soviet Government had proposed that the conference be only with the leading Powers of the Entente, because the usefulness of such a con- ference arose from the fact that without the assistance of the leading Power war could not he waged by other State against Russia, and o the peace of Europe would be guaranteed. The Kameneff statement continues: \We arc still of the opinion that d. rect negotiations with Poland for pen 6c would serve the Interests both of the Russian and Polish peoples.\ The conference In London between Russia and the leading Power of the Entente, says the communication, \would have for Its object the regularlzatton of the International position of Russia and the settlement of all outstanding ques- tion between her and the Afilcs for the benefit of general peace. The guarantees the Soviet Government desire that Poland will not use the ar- mistice period for a renewal of hostili- ties. It Is set forth. Include her partial disarmament and the cessation of the re- cruiting of conscript soldiers aa well a voluntary enrollments. M. Kameneff also refer to hi Inter- view with Premier Lloyd George Wednesday night, and states that he forwarded to the Soviet Oovernmenf the Premier's statement '\with regard to the decision of the British Government to side with Poland and to renew the block- ade In consequence of the invasion of ethnographical Poland by the troopa of J .lie nu.iTt aw.Tnimtti,. Of the guarantees desired M. Kamen- eff says: \The history of the Polish at- tack upon Russia, the patent fact oi systematic and uninterrupted assistance to Poland on the part of France, and the presence on the right wing of the Polish army of the troop of Gen. Wrangel. who also I supported by the French Govern- ment, render It a matter of necessity for the Russian Soviet Government to de- mand the Inclusion In the term of the armistice with Poland of such reanon-ahl- e guarantee is would prevent all at- tempts on the part of Poland to use the armistice period for the renewal of hos- tile acta against Russia.\ M. Kameneff continues: \One Is in- deed Justified in Inferring from the con- duct of the Polish delegates who pre- ferred to return to Warsaw, that the Polish Government la speculating on for- eign assistance and delaying armistice and peace negotiations In expectations of It.\ p ITALY WOULD GIVE REDS FREE HAND Foreign Minister Says Com munilt Movement Must Re Allowed to Develop.

De- tails of the scheme, as outlined by Mr. Johnson, appear fantastic and most Im- probable.

Kvery-wher- e I have been asked why the Presi- dent did not submit the Senate reserva- tion to the Allies before rejecting them. They would have been accepted quickly. \Another question put to me was why America has representative at the meetings of the Allies being held In this crisis. I have told my friends here with regret that It was because our Govern- ment Juat now was not normal.

It is no time to play politic. Kurope expects the United States to re- spond to her manifest obligation.
