Two feature of the fighting stand out with sharp significance: The first Is the fe arieaeneas with which the Germans are reacting; the j second la the surprising promptness with which Berlin admits retirements in various sectors. There Is considerable evidence that Field Marshal Hindenburg is is planning another great withdrawal and that Field Marshal Haig pressing him at all points In the hope of delivering a shattering blow if such a second "retreat to victory materializes. The Italians having successfully maintained their advance in the face of the most formidable Austrian counterattacks are apparently preparItalian ing for a resumption of their offensive.

Rumors of revolt have been current for several months and at the end of May it was announced that the constitutional guarantees would be suspended while the government prohibited all public manifestations In respect to international questions. This was followed by an outbreak at Barcelona on June 1, the seriousness of which was Indicated by the fact that the soldiers sided with the revolters and imprisoned a number of thsir officers. The exact part whicn tne issues of the war play in the Spanish crisis Is difficult to determine. The masses of the people have been geny the in sentiment while erally accredited with b61ng strongly aristocracy leaned toward the side of Germany.

Russia has the question at the state department with th approach of the Russian mission to Washington, the beginning of negotiations by the American commission to Russia In Petrograd and th continued reiteration of the demand of th council of soldiers and workmen's delegates for s statement of allied peace terms. Recent reports Indicate that th council of soldiers and workmens delegates is not so dominating a facto a generally assumed. It represent not over 8.800.000 of people Rassta's 10.000.000. The oouncll Is confined very largely to the industrial centers, whose voice always th first beard and th loudest. Th peasant, according to these reporta comprise the vast majority of the population and have voted overwhelmingly in favor of a vigorous prosecution of the war. Moreover, th businessmen of Russia It I pointed out. have recently voted practically unanimously through what corresponds in Russia to the American chamber of oommerce for a vigorous prosecution of the war. Nevertheless, the continued Insistence by the soldiers and workman delegate for s new declaration by th Allies shows a lack of confidence which it is realised must be swept away before Russia can present a united front. Great hope is fslt that the Root mission may find mini way to appeal to th Russian radical on hts own ground, hut no definite advices from the American envoys are expected for some REGISTRATION VMC 1 1 days.

Great Britain is reported to have expreseed general agreement with Americas policy, but to view the eltuation from a slightly different arfgle. Juat what that angle is Is not known. While China is understood not to have replied to the American note, though, reports Indicate that it was "favorably received. The state department is not making public anyof its dispatches about the revolution, but news dispatches Indicate that Gen. Chang Hsun. head of th military faction, has arrived as a dictator In Peking following President Ll'a compliance with his demand to dissolve parliament. Whether this means the restoration of a monarchy a hinted at is uncertain.
