That th Katwa'a City Missouri River
Navigation company would be glad to co
perat with Omaha business men In ar
', ranging an extension of the Missouri
. j river navigation to Omaha, was learned
' hy I. W. Gamble and Robert Manley Fri
day when they were In Kansas City look
""tng Into the proposition of Missouri river
nsvlgation. The two men were sent to
Kansas City by the trade extension com
mittee of the Commercial club to make
. , an Investigation and a report on the prop-
'-."osltlon.
The committee spent the day with Oen
, era Manager A. V. Mackl of the navt-
. . sratlon company going through the wsre
,,i bouses, over the docks and even looking
. over the company books for a reoord ot
'.the business handled.
The company has been navigating the
.. - river for four years between Kansas City
. and St. Louis, and although It was ex-
.....peoted It would run at a loss for some
-. time, the business would have been on
paying basis this year were It not for
. the war, which put an end. to a large
flour exporting trade the boats had boen
carrying.
. The, boats oed on this route draw three
and one-half feet of water. It was ex
plained to the Omaha committee that
perhaps a slightly smaller boat would
( have to be uaed on the trip between Kan
aa City and Omaha, but that navigation
Swo&ld doubtless be entirely' practicable.'

Two automobiles were completely
,; I wrecked and several men painfully
bruised In two separate accidents south-
X east of Council Bluffs late Thursday
j night In both incidents the cars turned
rV fVimpletely over while making turns at

'A i The first accident occurred near the
"I Iowa Bchool for the Deaf. The car. a big

John Flynn of Mtneola. In the car with
,; hlnx wag Herbert Deltchler, also of Mine

r ng a wagon and went far out toward

S Jurned his car at a sharp angle, the mo-
j Jnontunv causing It to turn a. complete
Somersault. . . Flynn waa caught under
K tteath the car and Delter.ler was pinned

"' however, In working himself loose and

another automobile. Neither of the

' a complete wreck and was left lylns by
the aide of the road.

ley, to sustain exactly the same accident
at a point tw miles down the road. His

; were thrown out or Jumped at the critical
moment and all escaped being caught
underneath. All were slightly bruised,

PETItOORAD. Nov. 21.-(Bpedal Cable
gram to New York Wot Id and Omaha
Bee.) The Germans, advancing fliiectly I
from Thorn along both banks of the i
Vistula, have gained points within a few
marches of Wsrsaw, and are still forcing
their way along by dir??t fighting.
The Russians are continuing their
steady penetration of Enst Prussia, and
300 miles to the south the Russian left
Is Investing Cracow. This Is about all
correspondents here are permitted to
know.
The situation is precisely that of the
anxious periods which preceded the de
feats of the Germans on the Nleman and
before Warsaw.
Where the main Russian forces are and
what the strategic plan la now In course
of execution can not even be guessed,
but the Importance of that, which Is now
In preparation, far exceeds anything that
has gone before.
What object the Germans have to attain
by their headlong charge npon Warsaw,
from a military point of view, 1 diffi
cult to understand.
It la a move that perhaps may be
utilised powerfully from a political point
of view. Germany haa aet Turkey upon
the Russian rear and is straining every
nerve by methods of bribery of thu press
and the manipulation ot puliltc operation
nd other methods to force several
Italkan states Into conflict against Rus
sia, but principally Germany Is suspected
now of doslring to gain some advantage
which, reported. In customary Germanic
coloring, may suffice to bring Sweden
Into the arena.
Bo far as known the Russians are relying
on fighting before the second German In
vasion and will continue to retire until
the place fixed upon by Grand Duke
Nicholas for the final effort Is reaohed.
When the veil Is lifted, whloh now con
ceals the entire theater of war on this
front, it .will once more show that the
Germans have been outwlttcl by the
strategy of the grand duke.
What official Russian spokesmen say
Is that the present aituatlon is serious,
but Is favorablo to Russia, and their
manner of saying quite plainly conveys
perfect confidence In the result.

Douglas county, spesklng through th
district Judges, should feel that my serv
ices are no longer needed In this Impor
