THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY, JULY 13, 1917

RUSSIA'S HEART IS SOUND, SAYS GENERAL SCOTT American- Delighted With Spirit of Slavonic People and Army. PETROGRAD, Juy 13. "Tell Americans we have found the heart of Russia sound; we have found the army's heart sound at the core. I believe in New Russia. She will fight desperately to help us conquer Germany." The words are those of Major General Hugh L. Scott of the American mission to Russia. He spoke them to an American correspondent today as a message to be sent "back home" now that the American mission his concluded Its vl6lt to the newest republic. Scott Happiest of Men. General Scott was the happiest member of the American commission with announcement of the Russian victory at Halicz. He had been chosen by the Russian troops on the Halicz front as their mascot. , "The drive started by General Brusiloff substantiates my prediction that the Russians would figrt valiantly," General Scott asserted. "In ten day they have taften as prisoners a third as many as the ' British and French have taken In three months. Also" they have broken the enemy's lines.,. Remember, this is the first enemy, line broken in a long time.

"The whole thing now depends on how strongly and effectively the great Russian ' offensive breaks the enemy up. Heavy pressure on the breach line must be constant and Increasing." "Whoop er Up" Root. Former Senator Root's final word from Petrograd to his fellow citizens in the United States was: "Americans Whoop 'er up for Russia!" Charles Edward Russell's concluding speech was before a group of intellectual Socialists, headed by Plekhanoff. He vigorously urged unremitting war activity and was roundly cheered, the only man not applauding being a certain American pacifist Socialist now here. All opposition to the war has subsided here and apparently throughout Russia. Even Nicholai Lenine, the pro-German peace enthusiast, has quieted down completely. Celebrate Halicz's Capture. All of Petrograd was celebrating the capture of Halicz today. The city was decorated and crowds in the Nevsky Prospect paraded and cheered the army. Hundreds of citizens are sending their Jewels and money to the "Battalions of July One" the troops specially awarded that name by Minister of War Kerensky, because they began Brusiloffs great offensive. Nor are other troops now in action being forgotten. Minister Kerensky is receiving medals and precious metal to be melted up for the soldiers from all over Russia. The public Is delighted at the communiques. One which caused laughter and cheers for a whole day related how the wind blew back on the German trenches asphyxiating gas released agalrist the Russians. The public slogan nowadays is "Luck is with us."

INDIANA SOLDIERS TO CAMP IN ALABAMA

WASHINGTON, July 13. The Indiana-Kentucky division of the National Guard will be sent to Anniston, Ala., for fall and perhaps winter training. A definite decision has been reached, and only official red tape delays a formal promulgation of the order. The guard of the two states will be expected to move rapidly after being drafted into Federal service Aug. 6, and there will be no longer delay at home stations than is absolutely necessary. For a time the War Department considered sending the Indiana-Kentucky division into camp in Texas, but it was decided finally the railroad facilities were more favorable to moving the troops of this division to the Anniston camp, inasmuch as it is on the main line of the, L. & N. Railroad and is easily accessible from Indiana and Kentucky. A number of Northern senators, including Senator vNew of Indiana, protested to the War Department today against sending the troops from the North into hot Southern camps for training, holding that it would be a wiser part to keep them at their homer stations until time to send them to France.

Then for thirty minutes he led swiftly down a crazy devil's stairway of uneven boulders, stopping to lend a hand at the worst places, but everlastingly urging him to hurry. They were both breathless,' and King was bruised in a dozen places when they reached level going at least six or seven hundred feet below the cave from which they started. Then the hell-mouth gloom began to grow faintly luminous, and the waterfall's thunder burst on their ears from close at hand. They emerged In

to fresh wet air and a sea of sound, on' a rock ledge like the one above. Ismail raised the torch and waved it. The fire and smoke wandered up, until they flattened on a moving opal dome, that prisoned all the noises in the world. "Earth's Drink!" he announced, waving, the torch and then shutting his mouth tight, as if afraid to voice sacrilege. It was the river; million-colored in the torch-light, pouring from a half-mile-long slash in the cliff above them and plunging past them through the gloom toward the very middle of the world. Its width was a matter of

memory, and its depth uhguessable, for although dim moonlight filtered through it, he did not know where the moon was, nor how far such light

could penetrate ; through moving water. Somewhere it met rock-bottom and boiled there, for a roar like the sea's came up from deeps unimaginable. He watched the overturning dome until his senses reeled. Then he crawled on hands and knees to the ledge's brink and tried to peer over. But Ismail dragged him back. "Come!" he howled; but in all that din his shout was like a whisper.

"How deep is it?" King bellowed back. " ... "Allah! Ask Him who made it!" The fear of the falls was on the Afridl, and he tugged at King's arm in a frenzy of impatience. Suddenly he let go and broke into a run. King trotted after him, afraid, too, to look to right or left, lest the fear should make him throw himself over the brink. The thunder and the hugeness had their grip on him and had begun to numb his power to think and his will to be a man Suddenly when they had run a hundred yards, Ismail turned sharp to the right into a tunnel that led straight back into the cliff and sloped up-hill. As the din of the falls grew less behind him and his power to think returned, King calculated that they must be following the main direction of the river bed, but edging away gradually to the , right of it. After ten minutes' hurrying up-hill he guessed they must be level with the river, in a tunnel running nearly parallel. He proved to be right, for they came to a gap in the .wall, and Ismail thrust the torch through it. The light shone on swift black water, and a wind rushed through the gap that nearly blew the torch out. It accounted altogether for the dryness of the rock and the fresh air in the tunnel. The river's weight seemed to suck a hurricane along with it air enough for a million men to breathe. After that there was no

more need to stop at intervals and beat the torch against the wall to make it burn brightly, for the wind fanned It until the flame was nearly white. Ismail kept looking back to bid King hurry and never paused once to rest. "Come!" he urged fiercely. "This leads to -the Heart of the Hills!" And after. that King had to do his best to keep the Afridi's back in sight. They began after a time to hear voices and to see the smoky glare made by other torches. Then Ismail set the pace yet faster, and they became the last two of a procession of turbaned men, who tramped along a winding tunnel into a great mountain's womb. The sound of slippers clicking and rutching on the rock floor swelled and died and swelled again as the tunnel led from cavern to cavern. In one great cave they came to every men beat out his torch and tossed it on a heap. ,The heap

was more than shoulder high, and three parts covered the floor of the cave. After that there was a ledge above the height of a man'a head on' either side of the tunnel, and along the ledge little oll-buring lamps were spaced at measured intervals. They looked ancient enough to have been there when' the mountain itself was born, and although all the brass ones suggested Indian and Hindu origin, there were others among them of earthenware that looked like plunder from ancient Greece.
