LONDON, June 2.—'The discovery
in Moscow and Petrograd of a large
counter revolutionary plot which
stretches throughout the whole of Rus-
sia is announced in a Russian wireless
message received here tonight. To
this plot is attributable in part the
mutiny of the Czecho-Slovak troops
which have captured several important J
railway junctions and lines.
The Soviet executives decided on
May 29 to undertake the partial calling j
to arms of several classes of workmen
and the poorer peasants in Petrograd !
and Moscow and the Kuban and Don
regions.
At tlie same time Moscow has been de-
clared in a state of siege. Counter-revo-
lutionaries have been arrested unci ener-
getic measures have been taken against the
nress.
The question dominating all others Is
that of supplying the people with bread
now that Hussla has been deprived of the
I krnine granary. The Kuban and I>on
regions arc, according to ltussiau report,
menaced by a counter-revolutionary band
which hopes by means of complications to
provoke Intervention by foreign powers
and thus drive the Kusslau masses toward
famine.
regions the large owners are
mobilizing the well-to-do peasants with
the object of resisting the efforts of the
government to commandeer flour depots

Holding Cantigny More Vital
Than Capture, French Declare
French Praise American Resistance of
Repeated Counter-Attacks
by the Enemy.
By BERT FORD
(International News Service Staff Correspondent.)
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 2.—The confidence of
the French public and the morale of the French army are unshaken despite
all developments in the field. The French spirit is unconquerable. This has
never been manifest as it is in these hours of grave crisis. The success of
the American troops in Picardy in capturing the village of Cantigny last Tues-
day is still prominently mentioned in the news and editorial columns of the
French newspapers. It has further strengthened the friendship and respect
for the American troops.
The sight of American uniforms as our soldiers pass through villages in
the rear of the battle lines invariably is the signal for stormy ovations. The
children salute and the women cheer and throw kisses at the khaki-clad men
from the United States.
The Cantigny success is interpreted in France as an indication of American
military skill and tenacity and as a forerunner of still greater achievements
The failure of seven German counter attacks to retake the Cantigny salient
has increased the prestige of America.

FRENCH CRITIC GIVES FOCH
UNTIL MONDAY MIDNIGHT
TO DECIDE RESULT.
By ERNEST F. OBK.
(International News Servl<« Staff Cor-
respondent.)
PARIS. June 2.—A hot battle was rag-
ing across the Mame lute today between
the French, who are firmly entrenched In
the southern suburbs of Chateau Thierry,
and the Germans, who have taken a foot-
hold In the northeastern suburbs.
The mass of the German reserves Is be-
lieved to he between the Mame and Ourcr|
Rivers, where the fighting today Is mor>
desperate than probably any combat lu
this war.
Having established themselves on a
line from near La l'ere-Mllon to Prln/.-
X nthlera-Etrepilly-Chateaii Thierry, the
Germans are evidently trying 'for a
massed thrust against the Important rail
center of Meause (on the Mame. twenty-
seven miles east-northeast of Parlsl.
The Germans are following the tactics
of evading those points where thev must
meet stout resistance. Finding «,uch op-
position, they Imuidelately throw their
masses elsewhere. They refuse to flg.it
for positions where the defense Is strong.
This line of procedure Is markedly In con-
trast with their tactics at Verdun two
years ago where for six months they
"butted" their heada against the two mile
sector for Doualmont to Fort Vaux.
The German encircling attempt against
Rhelms ts being maintained fiercely. Hot
fighting rages for Fort I>e La Pompelle,
on the Veslc.
Henri Itldou, the noted military critic,
says today:
"A complete stabilisation has not yet
been brought about but there Is a marked
halt In the German push. If we compar"
the present drive with the March ofenslve
we should atlll give F»b until Monday
about midnight te ubtalu a decisive re-
MM."
NAVY DEPARTMENT SAYS SOME

WASHINGTON, I). C„ June 2,-Au
nouncement was made by the Navy De-
partment today that four officers and
twenty men are believed to he miaatng In
the sinking of tbe Prealdent Lincoln, trans
port.
This is the first Intimation of any loss
of life aboard the transport since it was
torpedoed by an enftny submarine last
Wednesday and Is the first news of the
disaster excepting tbe bare announcement.
Only a brief announcement to this ef-
fect was made public by the Navy De-
partment. It read:
"A dispatch to the Navy Department
today states that four officers and twenty
men are believed to be missing In the sink-
ing of the President ILncoln. Aa soon as
a list of the mlsslug Is received and
checked It will be made public."
officials were unable to give an approx-
imate number of the persona who must be
aboard the vessel.
It Is believed that the dispatches re
Celled today meant ships officers and
crew. The vessel was protected by a giiu
crew but the officials are confident that
the dispatch would have been more specific
had any of these been lost.
From tbe fact that the nttarg was made
about 11 o^lpck In the morning the a.-
sumption la that the men were killed lu
practically the one section of the ship
K here the torpedo exploded. As the vessel
was afloat for almost an hour after the

NEW YORK, June 2.—Efforts of the
National War Labor Board to adjust
the differences between the Western
Union Teiwgraph Company and its em-
ployes have failed.
By a vote of seven to five the board
voted: "It does not scein useful to
further prolong the mediation. The
construction of our principles, as set
forth in Mr. Taft's telegram to Mr.
Carlton, leads to the conclusion that
Western Union Telegraph Company
should accept this compromise as
therein stated. It declines, however,
to do so or submit to the jurisdiction
of this board and no further action of
the board is therefore recommended."
The refusal of the Western Inlon Com-
pany is the first recorded action of a
corporation to refuse to accept the prin-
ciples as laid down for tile consideration
of labor difficulties by the Tuft-Walsh
bojird, which Inter for purposes of judi-
cial action became (he National War Labor
Board.

gan at 10:30 o'clock Friday night and the
hostile airmen raided the same group of

It after getting his bearings by letting fall
a brilliant flare which lighted up the whole
district. One sister was killed at this place
anil several others wounded, one of the
latter probably fatally.
The raid lasted two houra but, thanks to
the fact that most of the hospitals were

On the seventh day of the battle for Paris General Foch began using
some of his reserves. They, by terrific fighting, frequently in hand-to-hand
encouters in which their favorite weapon was the fixed bayonet, regained
several vantage points in the line from Soissons to Chateau Thierry. At last
accounts the battle was still in progress, but its net result may be summarized,
in the statement that the Germans driving westward failed to gain material
advantage. At least part of Chateau Thiery, Rheims and the Marne are held
by the allies. ,

PARIS, June 2—French troops last night smashed repeated German at-
tacks of the greatest violence in the sector north of the River Aisne between
the Oise River and Soissons, the French War Office announced today.
Mont de Choisy, after being attacked four times by forces of the German
Crown Prince, was finally stormed only to be lost again to the invaders at
the point of the bayonet.
On the front between Soissons and Chateau Thierry, the Germans occu-
pied Long Pont, Corey, Faverolles and Troesnes, but later were driven out
of these places by energetic French counter attacks.
On the Rheims-Dorman front bitter fighting is taking place and the Ger«
mans have crossed the high road east of Ville-en-Tardenols.
The text of tbe statement reads:
"German pressure ctontinues with intensity on the front between the Ois*
and Marne. Extremely violent attacks in the region north of the Bois Carle*
pont and Moutins-Sous-Touvek were repulsed. French troops have ejected tha
enemy from position! north pf these points.

them, was recaptured at the point of the bayonet by French soldiers who remain
in control..
"Between Vierzy and the Ourcq the Germans took possession of Long
Pont, Corey, Faverolles and Troesnes, but by an energetic return to the of.
fensive, French troops again occupied these localities.
"On the River Marne, the Germans have reached the heights west of|
Chateau Thierry. The French hold that portion of the city situated on th»
left bank of the river.
"Violent fighting is in progress along the Dormans-Rheims Road, whicfc
the Germans have crossed with light forces in the region of Olizy-Violaine and
