The fact that & French crulser has

that the forts guarding the western

highly satisfactory to Field Marshal
von Hindenburg.
The Russians, who succeeded In
avulag the Bobr River early in the
week, have been driven back to the
left bank, and Ossowlec, which
guards the crossing hetween Grodno
and Lomza, is being bombarded by
German artillery. Two of the four

German military experts.

Petrograd Predicts
PETROGRAD, Feb. 37.-—~General re
treat of the German armies In North
ern Poland was predicted at the War
Office to-day as a result of the Rus
sian victory at Przasoysz. It was
’!-rfllk‘lwl that the Russian advance in
the Przasnysz region had cut through
the German front extending from the
Niemen to the Vistula, and that the
troops of Grand Duke Nicholas were
proceeding steadily toward the KEast
Prussian frontier, thus menacing the
Germans along the Niemen-Bobr-Na
rew front.
These German forces have succeed
ed In bringing thelr heavy artillery
u‘P before the fortress of Ossowiec.
While this is a pivotal point in the
Russian line of defense, War Office
attaches profess to have no anxlety
over the situation there. They claim
that with the Germans retreating in
the Praasnyss region, those before
Ossowiec will be unable to hold thelr
positions.
To the northeast of Ossowiec, along
the Niemen River, desperate fighting
is proceeding In the swamp district,
where the Germans suffered such se
vere losses in their first invasion of
Russian territory. At some points, by
the sacrifice of great numbers of men,
the Germans have succeeded in gain.
ing temporary advantages, only to be
driven from their positions by con
centrated Russian attacks, Thursday
they threw pontoon bridges across the
Niemen, north of Gredno, and two di
vislons crossed upon these to the east
bank.
Late Thursday night, however,
.:hrm‘ Russian regiments made a bril
fant bayonet chu‘\e upon the Ger
mans and drove them back to the
west bank of the river, after flerce
hand-to-hand fighting. Lackine artil
lery, the arrival of which had been
delayed by the deep snow, volunteers
to hlow up the pontoon bridges were
called for. Fifteen men were select
ed. They attached bombs to the
structures and shattered them.
Of the fifteen that volunteered for
the task, however, only three re
turned unwounded. Seven were killed.
Work Havoc in Arras
By FRANKLIN P. MERRICK.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georglan,
PARIS, Feb, 27.--The Germans are
again bombarding Arras and Sols
sons as the resuit of French troop
concentrations in those cities, ac
cording to dispatches recelved in Par
is to-day. The big German mortars
have done terrific havoe at Arras, and
a great part of the city 1s in ruins.
Despite rainy, foggY weather in
West Flanders, artillery dueling Is
still in progress there. A considera
ble amount of French artillery has
been placed at the disposal of the
Belglans, who are shelling the Ger
man lines near Ostend.
Infantry fighting in the forests
rorth of Verdun has cost the Germans
heavily. In the Bois Forges peasants
have been working for two daye bury-.
ing the dead, and still many bodies re
main upon the ground. ' Farther to the
south, in the Meuse Valley, near St
Mihiel, the French have repulsed with
heavy losses attempts of the Germans
lto retake some of the ground they

There 18 a double bend in the River
Meuse at that polnt, forming a let

on the west bank.
There has been no decisive result
during the last few days’ fighting in

that a decision in the Frank case, now
under consideration by the court, will
not be reached for several weeks,
though 1t is thought certain that the
court will make known its finding
before adjourning for the suminer re-
COns,
Following the conclusion of Bolici
tor Dorsey late yesterday, Louls Mar
shall, attorney for Frank, asked for
more time to present further argu
ment, which was denled by Chief Jus
tice White, and court adjourned with
all the arguments completed
. Should the{nmmne Court sustain
Judge W, T. Newman, of the Federal
Court for the Northern District of
Georgla, who refused apuilcation for
a writ of habeas corpus, the next
move in the celebrated case will be
the resentencing of Frank and the fix
ing of a date for the exccution. Then
the only hope of the condemned man
would be in a pardon or a commuta
tion of the death sentence by the Gov
ernor of Georgia,
Should the court, on the other hand
reverse the ruling of Judge Newman,
the case would be remanded to the
Distriet Court for the taking of evi

I Announcement from Washington on

ih\mrd & reserve city by the Federal
Reserve Hoard was explained by H ¥
!’-h“ ‘ord, governor of the Federal re
serve distpict of Atlanta, who said
that the naming of the Tennessee city
can in no way affect the work of the

placing of Chattanooga in the list of
reserve cities as designated by the
provisions of the new Federal bank
ing law
“Up to this time,” sald Mr. McCord,
“there have been four reserve cities 1n
this district-—Atlanta, New Orileans,
Birmingham and Savannah. The na
tional banks in these cities are re
quired to earry 15 per cent of demand
deposits and § per cent of time or
savings deposits In lawful reserve,
and being named as reserve cities for
the next three years will be permitted
to carry deposit swith themnt as part
of the reserve of what is known as
country banks
“Now, as Chattanocoga !» also a re
serve city, the banks there will be re.
quired to earry 15 per cent on demand
deposits and § per cent on time de
posits Instead of 12 per cent hereto
fore carried as in the country bank
lists. This in no way takes from the
Federal reserve banks the reserves re
quired to be carried with them.”
