WOULD MOVE PEACE PARLEY FROMJIINSK Poles Can't Communicate, They Say; Bolsheviki Succeed in Breaking Out of Trap Set For Them. RESERVESllUGHT UP (By Associated Press) WARSAW, Aug. 26. M. Dombski, president of the Polish-Minsk peace delegation, had been called to BrestLitovsk to confer with the Polish government representatives. This step was taken because of continued interruptions between Warsaw and Minsk. The question of insisting that the Russo-Polish peace negotiations be shifted from Minsk to some other city, owing to difficulties of communication has occupied various officials for several days, and the cabinet considered It throughout Wednesday. The cabinet's recommendations have been forwarded to the national council of defense for final determination and - an announcement la expected within a few days. Soviet Rushes Reinforcements Russian soviet reserves are reported being brought up on tne southern front in great numbers. According to information in the hands of the Polish General Haller reserves some distance behind the Bolshevist north front also are being brought up. Remnants of the fourth Bolshevik army, which were cut of by the Polish advance in the region of Kolno, have succeeded In cutting tneir way tnrou;n to the eastward aiter a battle lasting ten hours, according to an official statement issued here. The soviet troops carried out a regrouping maneuvre and succeed in making their way out of tho trap which had closed upon them, but at last accounts were surrounded by more numerous forces of the fourth Polish army. The fifth Polish army continues its work of rounding up detachments of Bolsheviki in the region west of the railroad running from Modlin to M lcL W L. On the central front the Poles have carried out a flanking movement to the north and have occupied Knyszyn, 15 miles northwest of Bialystok, and Stawiski, 12 miles northeast of Lomza. Occupation of these towns, with the capture of Kolno, completes the work of forging a ring around the fifteenth Bolshevik army. Try to Break Through Other soviet forces have reassembled at various places and are making repeated attacks in their attempts to break the Polish cordon. Nine attacks were made in the region of Kolno yesterday, but are all said to have been repulsed with enormous losses. Among the captives is the command of a Bolsheviki division. In the maneuver which resulted in he oecuDation of Lornza the Poles took more than 2,000 prisoners and nine cannon. There was street fighting in Bitaystok for more than 21 hours before the Bolsheviki were finally ousted from the place. Reports received at the war department state the 55th Bolshevik division has been called from Grodno to attempt to drive the Poles out of Bialystok. In the neighborhood of that city more than 7,000 prisoners and 18 guns were taken by the Poles. Polish successes in the neighborhood of Lemberg are also reported. Concentrate Russ Troops Soviet troops are reported to be concentrating in great numbers along thf! Beresina river, where the recent offensive against Warsaw was begun, and military observers here are speculating as to the possibility they may launch an attack against the central Polish front. It is believed possible the Bolsheviki may make a stand in the event the Poles continue their pursuit of the retreating soviet armies ea-stward from the Bug river, on the south, and Grodno, on the north. Reports received here late today continued to tell of Polish forces closely pursuing the retiring Bolsheviki on various fronts. LONDON. Aug. 26 Polish troops yesterday after hard fighting captured the fortress of Ostrolenka. 22 miles southwest of Lomza, and forced a passage of the Narew river, the Central News Warsaw correspondent today says it is officially stated in the Polish capital. Russian soviet troops surrounded near Mlawa made a desperate attack in order to break through, the correspondent reports., a portion of the soviet army escaping to the eastward. Further east the Poles after capturing Bialystok, are advancing on Grodno. In eastern Gajicia the soviet forces are retreating on the whole front in order to avoid a flank attack which is threatening. Fighting Is Fierce Fierce fighting in the Oriekhov district of the Crimea,' continually increasing in violence is reported in the Russian soviet official statement of Wednesday, received here today by wireless. On the Lemberg front the soviet cavalry has penetrated the Polish rear and reached the town of Stryi, the statement says. On the northern front the soviet retreat continues. The statement reads: "In the Lomza and Bialystok regions (northeast of Warsaw, we continue to conduct rear guard actions. We have occupied a number of villages north and east of Brest-Litovsk. In the Cholm region local fighting is proceeding. "In the Lemberg region our cavalry has broken through Into the enemy , rear and reached Stryi town, where they destroyed ten enemy trains.

Teaty Brings Worse Woe XVKzW's 'J Otto H. Kahn. NEW YORK, Aug. 26. That the general suffering In Europe since the cessation of the war is due more to tho treaty of peace signed at Versailles than to the war itself is the conclusion of Otto H. Kahn, banker, who recently returned from England, France and Italy. Instead of creating "peace," Mr. Kahn 6ays, the treaty has merely created dissention among the countries of Europe. The banker reached his views after many talks with economists, bankers and statesmen. He said: "Those who framed the peace treaty of Versailles, while affirming and, 1 doubt not, intending allegiance to the hopes and aspirations of the liberal opinion of the world, have to a considerable extent negatived them in fact. Put Commerce Out of Joint. "Bartering and compromising and sowing the seeds of dissension among one another and of discord throughout the world, they have set up dispositions which have resulted in leaving production, commerce, international intercourse, indeed the very conditions

Than War, Says Kahn of existence, completely out of Joint In almost all of Europe east of the Rhine. "They have Ignored what was among the most essential of all the elements involved In readjusting the world from war to peace, namely, the element of practical economics. "They have produced a treaty so little consonant with the realities that from the day of its promulgation to this day It has been a continuous object of controversy, of readjustment, of interpretation, of haggling ana whittling down, and has consumed the time; thought and energies of the leading statesmen in the various countries to the detriment of domestic affairs. . "Solemnly proclaiming the principle of 'self-determination they have granted or withheld it, according to their discretion. They have involved themselves In commitments of sovereignty, control or regulation throughout the world calling for military and other efforts, the cost and burden of which go beyond the present capacities of their respective nations and beyond the sanction of public opinion. "They injected into the matter-of-fact business of making peace with Germany a business which demanded promptitude and finality the complexities, delays and uncertainties of a world-embracing ethical experiment , that called for calm and detached and separate consideration and treatment. Far From True League. "They have mishandled the fine and universally acclaimed conception of an association of nations to maintain and strengthen international law and preserve peace, and, seeking to utilize it for unrelated purposes, have evolved an instrument largely divergent from that conception. "Thus and in other ways, instead of peace and settlement they havo wrought dispeace and unsettlement. "It would be futile to discuss the distribution of responsibility among the treaty makers for the sad disillusionment which the outcome and sequel of the Versailles conference brought to a world that stood ready and expectant to follow a lead worthy of the high inspiration which had actuated the people of the allied nations and America during the wan "It sounds paradoxical, but in. a large sense, it is true that Europe for the past year has been suffering less from the effects of the war than from the effects of the peace."

The proclamation announcement that the suf. frage amendment to the constitution had been ratified, was signed today by Secretary Colby of the state department. The document was signed at 8 a. m., at Mr. Colby's home, when the certificate that the Tennessee legislature had ratified, was received. The announcement disappointed 4 group of suffrage workers from headquarters of the National woman's party, who had hoped to be present when he attached his signature. Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the woman's party, was among the number. Says It Completes Struggle. "We are confident that the signirg completes the struggle in this country," she said. "In spite of every oh btacle that our opponents could put in our path, women have won the right to an equal vote in the afTairs of the government. Secretary Colby later sent word to the women that he would see the suffrage leaders at his office, if they desired. Secretary Colby nnounced his action on his arrival at his office. Anti-suffragists, who yesterday failed in their attempt to have the District of Columbia supreme court, issue .i u.uc. vj rr J. I from proclaiming the amendment as law, were not expected to further seek to prevent issuance of the proclamation. Secretary Colby made the following statement: "The certified record of the legislature of the state of Tennesfcee on the suffrage amendment wa3 received by mail this morning. "Immediately on its receipt the record was brought to my house. This was in compliance with my directions, and in accordance with numerous requests for prompt action. I thereupon signed the certificate required of the secretary of state this morning at 8 in the presence of Mr. F. K. Nielson, the solicitor of the state department, and Mr. Charles L. Cook, also of the state department. The seal of the United States has been duly affixed to the certificate, and the suffrage amendment is now the 19th amendment of the constitution. Decides Against Ceremony "It was decided not to accompany the simple action on my part with any ceremony or setting. This second ary aspect of the subject has regret fully been the source of considerable controversy as to who will participate In it and who shall not. "Inasmuch as I am not interested in the aftermath or in any of the frictions or collisions which may have been incurred in the long struggle for the ratification. I contented myself with the performance in the simplest manner of the duty devolved upon me. "I congratulate the women of the country upon the successful culmination of their efforts, which have been sustained in the face of many discouragements which have not de terred them from the achievement of that great object. Marks Opening of New Era "The day marks the opening of a great and new era in the political life of the nation. I confidently believe that every salutary forward and upward, force in our public life will receive fresh vigor from enfranchisement of the women of the country.. "To the leaders of this great movement I tender my sincere congratulations. To every one from the president who uttered the call to duty ! whenever the cause seemed to falter. to the humblest workers in this great reform, the praise not only of this generation but of posterity will be freely j S,venRecounts Process The proclamation recounts the pro cess by which the new article 19 of the! constitution was prepared and ratified, naming the ratifying states, and continues: "Now, therefore, be it known that I, Bainbridge Colby, secretary of state of the United States, by virtue of United States do hereby certify that the amendment aforesaid has become valid to all intents and purposes as a part of the constitution of the United States. Supreme Court is Next. Efforts will be made, anti-suffragist leaders declared, to have the United States supreme court tpass on the legality of Tennessee's ratification. Suffrage opponents predicted the court would hold that the legislature had no authority to act. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National American Woman Suffrage association, was expected to arrive in Washington from Nashville in time for a suffrage jollification which will be held here tonight in a theatre. The action of Justice Siddons paralleled in a measure that of Justice Lailey of the same court last month, except that Justice Bailey granted a "show cause" order against Secretary Colby in a similar bill filed by the same plaintiffs, but after hearing declined to issue the injunction asked on grounds of lack of jurisdiction and insufficient, showing. In dismissing the bill today. Justice Siddsns said he did not wish to review Justice Bailey's action in a similar case and that to issue the show cause order would be "unwarranted interference with a purely ministerial action of the secretary of state."
