TY TE SRA EH RS TTT ST TS TS Plan Invasion of | Great Britian. | 1 | i Berlin Newspapers Believe German: Will Blockade French Coast—Ad ' miralty Issues a Warning. i The London Exchane Telegrapk, company has received the following | dispatch from its Copenhagen corres pondent: “Emperor William’s visit to Wil helmshaven is believed to be in com nection with the warning of the Ger man admiralty to neutral shipping that great activity may be expected off the north and west coasis of Eng: land as a result of German attempts to stop England’s transportation of troops and munitions, nas announced on Tuesday. ‘ “This is interpreted in London as a prologue to important events at sea. | It is rumored that Germany will try to enage the British fleet in southern waters, while another squadron goes northward at full speed with the ob | ject of covering the landing of troops in England. : “Large contingents of troops are re. | ported to have been mobilized at Wii helmshaven at the time of the Scar | borough raid.” | It was suggested in the house of : commons that the German submarines i which have been playing havoc with | British shipping recently might have obtained fresh supplies of fuel from a ship direct from an English port. | Gershom Stewart, a member, put ! before the admiralty a question as ta | “whether a neutral oil steamer out | ward bound from Manchester was not i seen alongside two German subma ! rines within the past week.” i Mr. Stewart also calls on the ad | miralty for the name of this steamer | the shippers of the oil and the con i signees, and asks whether the expor | tation of: oil on neutral vessels will be permitted hereafter. | ! Kaiser May Biockace French Coast | The warning of the German admir alty staff concerning coming opera tions on the French coast, is consid ered by some Berlin newspapers among them the Morgen Post, to mean that an actual blockade is to be put into effect by the Germans. | The Morgen Post, however, points out that many of the essentials of a blockade are lacking, among them be ! ing a denite description of boundaries and a warning that neutral ships must not enter the forbidden zone. The entire German press prints the comments made by the English news papers regarding the deeds of the German submarine U-21, which made the raid Saturday on British steam: ers in the Irish sea. The annouucement of the Germanr; | navy staff follows: “England intends to ship shortly tc France a large number of troops and a great quantity of war material. We shall prevent this as much as possi | ble, and we warn ordinary ships to | keep away {rom the northwest ccast of France. Trade to the North sea is | recommended to go round the north! coast of Scotland.” Discussing the torpedoing of the British merchantmen by German sub. | marines, the Kreuz Zeitung, a Berlin | newspaper, says: “England and France cannot claim | from us in all circumstances and without exceptions the benevoleni i treatment which we hitherto have ac | corded merchant ships at sea. Cer | tainly the life of no civilian will be | sacrificed without necessity, but as nc | one refrains from bombarding a for tress or places on a battlefield be | cause civilians may thereby be killed, and as England has not hesitated ta strew the North sea with mines whereby the lives of neutrals are sac rificed, so shall we not refrain from | torpedoing English merchant ships, | simply because the lives of a few are thereby endangered.” GIRL SOLDIER WOUNDED Enlisted In Russo Army Under Man's Name—Gets Honor Emblem. Among the wounded who have ar rived in Moscow from the front is Olga Graslinikoff, a girl of nineteer | years. . : After taking part in nineteen battles | in the campaign in Poland she was | wounded in the foot.

WORLD EMPIRE “NONSENSE” Kaiser Has No Such Ambition, He Tells German Author. : Before departing from Berlin for Wilhelmshaven Emperor William re. ceived the German author Ganghofer. The emperor told Herr Ganghofer that the charges made by enemies of Germany that he intended to found a world empire if the war ended suc: cessfully for Germany, was “ridicu lous nonsense.” { old, and their two daughters, Bea | no one in the building, not even the | thought to have gone to his ' ran from the room of his parents ta . might have unbalanced his mind and | president of ; Yancing troops of Generals Villa and |! | Zapata, who disagreed with his poli- Murderer Used Muffled Rifle and! Shots Were Not Heard—Cause of Tragedy a Mystery. Muffling tiie reports of his rifle with a Maxim silencer, Herman Auerbach, a wealthy real estate man, shot to death his wife, Clare, thirty-four years trice, aged eighteen, and Daisy, six teen years of age, and then commit ted suicide in their home at 386 Cen- tral Park West, New York. The bodies of the victims of the tragedy were found by Lester, the fourteen-year-old son, whose suspi cions had been aroused upon awak- ening in an adjoining room®to find a note slipped under the door reading: “When you wake up ‘phone Uncle Joe Levy and grandpa.” The note was unsigned, but was plainly in the hand of Auerbach. It is believed to have been indicted after the crazed man had slain his wife and daughters and made an unsuccessful attempt to force an entrance into the room of his son. Although the rifle was of a 44-cali- ber and should have made a noise that would awaken the entire house, son nor Lottie Schliet, a maid, who occupied rooms in the apartment, had heard the shots. The bodies, each shot through the head, rested in their different beds. Apparently the three women were killed as they slept The two daughters occupied twin beds in a room adjoin: ing that in which Auerbach and his wife slept. It is the theory of the police that the man arose after making sure that the family were asleep, and taking his rifle, slew his wife and then his daughters. From their room he is son’s room, only to be baffled by the locke: door. Young Lester has been locking his door since a burglar scare started in that section of the city a few weeks ago, a precaution which saved his life. After satisfyiny himself that there was no way of entering the room without arousing the other tenants oi the house, the real estate man is be lieved to have made his way back te his own bed and ended his own life. Evidently he pulled the trigger in this | final shot with a toe. ! Terrified by his discovery, the boy ! that occupied by his sisters, with the | intention of arousing them. One glance at the .two bodies told him the | tale in its terrible entirety, and then, | shouting at the top of his voice, he | ' ran screaming down the stairs ne i the street. Policeman Sullivan heard the boy's shouts and hurried from his post a, couple of blocks away. After a pre | , liminary investigation, he notified his ' station house and then called in Coro. | i ner Feinberg and Dr. W. A. White, | the family physician of the Auer | bachs. - The physician shed a little .light on the deep mystery: involved in the quadruple tragedy, when he told the authorities of having attended Auer! bach last autumn for a mild case of apoplexy. The last stroke was just be fore Christmas, Dr. White said, and his patient had appeared to him ta have completely recovered. It is thought, however, that the peril of a recurrence of the ailment led him to his desperate act. General Obregon Retakes Capital. Mexico City is again in the hands ! of the forces of General Carranza, who while acting as the provisional the government, was forced to leave Mexico City early in! November under the threat of the ad- cies. The new authorities have re-estab lished order in the capital and a gen- eral feeling of confidence prevails in the city. It has been established that the shooting wliich occurred in the main | plaza, before the National Palace, when General Alvaro Obregon, at the | head of the Carranza forces, reached that place, was done by snipers, hid- den on the roof of the cathedral. General Obregon said that the shots i undoubtedly were directed at him and that it Was an attempted assassina- | tion. The perpetrators have not been | captured. Three soldiers were killed | and a number wounded during the fir- ing. All the saloons are closed as the re- | sult of an order by the authorities, but the commercial houses and banks ' will resume business immediately. Late Thursday afternoon and in the i earl yevening 20,000 additional Car! ranza troops, consisting of three | branches of arms, entered the capital ! and marched to the quarters selected | for them by General Obregon. The Zapatista troops, who left the | city on the appearance of General | Obregon and his forces, have retreat. ed to the southward. 3 Hydro-Aeroplanes Not Ships. Secretary Bryan made public a re- ply to. the German protest against the sale by an American manufact-' urer of hydro-aercplanes to belliger- ents as an unneutral act. i The state department dissents from | the German view that “hydro-aero-' planes must be regarded as war ves-! sels.” Russia to Try Captured Airmen.

Berlin Announces Capture of Village East of Bolimow and 4000 of Czar’s Troops. i Fierce fighting continues in the dis trict west of Warsaw, and the tide of , victory is now flowing toward the Russians as a result of the arrival there of fresh troops. | Dispatches from Warsaw estimate | the Russian reinforcements in this re- gion at 1,000,000 men, and an official | statement issued in Petrograd stated that trenches taken by the Germans in the early fighting had been recap- tured. While general interest centers in the fighting west of Warsaw, the mili tary experts regard the news that an- other invasion of Hungary is in full swing as of greater importance from a strategical standpoint. The Russian general staff reports that large forces of cavalry are approaching Budapest.

The Russian drive against Thorn, the great German fortress on the Vis: tula, in East Prussia, has been resum- ed. After sanguinary fighting along the lower Vistula and north of that stream, the Germans have retreated to Lipno, only twenty-six miles from Thorn. The following official statement was issued in Peirograd: “The engagements in the region of Mlawa have continued favorable to our. troops. On the left bank of the Vistula the battle on the roads from considerable intensity. “The German attack on the morning of Feb. 2, north of Borjimow, was re puised with great losses. A violent combat was begun south of Goumine, where we recaptured advance trench- es which we lost on Jan. 31. Lo “In the Carpathians the, conflict, continued on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1. Out forces advanced, fighting along the broad front at Dukla Pass, as far as the lower San, having crossed the principal ridge of the mountain range in the region of Pasliska and Meza Laborcz, where we took a battery of six cannon, two mortars, a number o! rapid firers and numerous prisoners. An offensive movement undertaken by the enemy southeast of Uszok Pass was repulsed with enormous losses. The capture of 4000 Russian prison: ers and six machine guns since Feb. 1, in the fighting west of Warsaw, is announced in an official report from the German general staff, issued in Berlin. The statement follows: “In Poland, north of the Vistula, cavalry onslaughts by the Russians have been repulsed, while south o! the Vistula German attacks at a poini east of Borjimow ended with the oc: cupation' of the v'lage of Humin (probably Coymine). Fighting for pos: session of Wolaszye-Lowiczka has been going on since Feb. 1. In these engagements we have taken more than 4000 prisoners and captured six “Russian attacks at night against the German positions near the Bzura river have been repulsed.” Falkenhayn’s Son Killed. Details received in Paris of the death of Captain von Falkenhayn, son of the chief of the German general staff, reveal a dramatic tale. The German was in a ‘Taube reconnoitering in the vicinity of Amiens when a French craft overtook him. An aerial duel followed, four detonations rapidly succeding each other. One of the bul lets went through the heart of Cap- tain von Falkenhayn. B. & O. Orders Rails.
