GERMANS LOSE
100,000 MEN, SAYS
FRENCH REPORT
Paris Admits Own Losses
Are Equally Great in
Fighting West of Verdun
LINES UNCHANGED
TAIUS, Sept. 11.
The Crown Trlnce's army has lost more
than 1(0,600 men In successive attempts to
break through the French lines west of
Verdun, It was officially estimated this
afternoon.
11 Is oMIclally admitted, however, that
the French losses In this week's fighting
w.ero nbout as heavy as those suffered by
tho Crown Prince.
An official review of the fighting In the
Western Argonne was given out, supple
mentary to tho dally communique. This
review Admits that In hlsf attacks on
Wednesdny and Thursday of this week
the Crown Prince penetrated the French
trenches on a front of two-thirds of n
mile, but declares that the German losses
were out of comparison to the ground
gained.
"Since tho Crown Prince's nrmy began
Its nttempts against the French "line's in
tho Argonne, It has not obtained a slifgle
strategically important result." said the
official review. "In ono year a single
German army corps has lost over 40,000
men. The Crown Prince's nrmy alto
gether has lost more than 100,000 men.
"After his repented reverses of last
month, the Crown Prince tried to ob
tnln an Important success In the Argonne
on Wednesday nnd nlso on the following
night. Ilut, despite the semiofficial Ger
man dispatches, these efforts, made with
large rorces nnd supported by many
guns, failed of appreciable results.
"Tho Germans penetrated the French
trenches only nt points on a two-thirds
of a mile front, but were immediately
blocked. In vain .they attempted to re
new the attack. The situation In that
region Is virtually unchanged, though
the cost to the German troops was at
least as heavy as to the French."
For 13 days Belgian, Drltlsh and
French artillery has poured a steady rain
of shells from guns of all calibre upon
the German trenches from the Swiss
frontier to tho sea.
This Afternoon's official communique re
ported no cessation In the bombardment.
The continual pounding has broken down
rows of Teuton trenches around Arras.
In the Argonne nnd the Champagne and
has prepared tho way for minor suc
cesses by the Infantry.
Throughout last night the region nround
Arras, near Nueyllle and Itocllncourt,
shook with the roar of exploding bhells.
Iletween the Somme nnd the Olse, and In
tho region of Fayc, there were continuous
combats all night with both mines jrd
artillery, and this afternoon's com
munique reports the wrecking of enemy
trenches.
In the Argonne the Germans attacked
energetically with bombs and hand gren
ades. Their foremost ranks wora Jmthed
in a snrapnei nre that threw the enemy
back.

LEWIS CROZER LEWIS
WOMAN KILLED CORD,
PETERSON DECLARES
Continued from rare One
Kraft. Peterson says tho letter Is from
Doctor Shattuck.
Tho paragraph of the missive looked
upon ns most slgnflcant Is as follows:
"Your friends nil believe that you could
not desire the death of your associate, on
whom you depended for nsslstance In your
deal. Jit m opinion, this dastardly mur
der was not dono by a business associate,
but bv a Jealous man.
"It is your duty to aid the prosecutor If
you can, but I suppose you dislike to ex
pose the weakness of your friend,"
So for Peterson has declined to give his
opinion as to who Is meant by tho
"friend" referred to In the letter, nnd
whAt Is Indicated by "his weakness."
Tho letter was mailed from New York
and Immediately after receiving It Peter
son turned It over to Prosocutor Kraft
It follows'
"Friend Olaf Have been away since
Saturdn to visit a sick niece and on my
return am surprised to hear that you are
still held; but you must be patient and
give the prosecutor time to clear this
terrible crlmo up and honorably release
you. The death of Mr. Cord and your ar
rest have probably upset your business
plans, but If you will let mo tako up tho
Florida timber deal I will seo to It that
your Interests nre protected It the deal
can be consummated In time.
"The Florida attorney appro' lated tho
condition In which you have been forced
and Is doing his best, but the papers you
sent, owing to your unfortunnto arrrst,
cannot bo used. If you want mo to sea
tho Florida timber men and close with
them, if possible, upnder the agreement
to protect you as above, write mo that
you are unable to renew the Florida con
tract and must give It up, and have some
friend write me name of the timber com
pany rind terms of your contract, and 1
will seo them at once."
Tho paragraph referring to tho "weak
ness of your friend," follows, and the
letter concludes:
"Believe In your Innocence; your
friends at the proper time will come to
your aid. You must be patient and
finally demand an honorable discharge.
This Is necessary to clear your name
from tho stigma of arrest and misrepre
sentation from the papers.
"Yours truly"
Peterpon is positive, he says, thnt the
letter Is from Doctor Shattuck, despite
the fact tint It bears no signature. He
says he can tell tho writer from the
phraseology nnd also from his knowledge
of the Florida timber deal,
Poctor Shattuck Is the man from whom
1'eterr.on got nn' option on a big tract
of timber- land1 In' Flot1dn( vThe nhyal
Clan takes care of the practice at. un
other doctor, in New York in the sum
mer mouths. It Is a practice frowned on
by n majority of physicians;
Peterson was asked specifically if he
thought the "friend" referred to as hav
ing a "weakness" In the letter meant
Lewis Crozcr Lewis, the defaulting
Philadelphia bank treasurer, whose name
has been brought Into tho case. He
nnswered In the negative, and declined to
give any opinion as to tho ldentltly of the
friend.
In this connection the Prosecutor nnd
his detectives nre interested in a report
fiom Frank H. Mlller.'a Camden prlvnto
detective, to the effect that a mysterious
stranger spent several hours with Peter
son at Palmyra the Friday before Cord
was murdered. A description of this
man hns been given to the Prosecutor
nnd his men are searching for the stran
gor. The description will not be divulged
nt this time.
Details of Peterson's business transac
tions with Cord are still trickling Into
the Prosecutor's ofllce. Peterson appar
ently told many friends and acquaint
ances that he was "up against 11" finan
cially the week before the murder, but
thnt he expected to get a largo sum of
money soon. He tried to get one broker
to sign a note that he said Cord had re
fused to sign. Peterson, according to
thlB man, seemed to be angry at Cord. ,
