today.
Ten thousand more Russian and Ru

capture of 8000 prisoners and twenty
iir &uns on December C. South of
Predeal and Altachanz Passes, Russo
Rumanian armies wore trapped. Only
partial attacks by the Russians along
toe Carpathian front arc reported. All
were repulsed with heavy losses for the

feat of a Rumanian army on the Alt

COP SEEKS SUIT
An echo of tho Police Beneficiary Asso

man 1. W. Thompson was heard today,
when Policeman John Simpson, of the Sec
ond nnd Christian streets station and liv
ing at 2021 Christian street, called on Mr.
Wood In the Consolidated Investment Com
pany offices, Finance Building.
Tho policeman wanted to know whether
Wood was going to bring his promised
suits. "You bring them or I will," he said,
"for I want this thing Investigated In cqurt
If nowhere else."
Mr. Wood told Policeman Simpson that
two suits surely would be brouirht. ons
against the association to recover $56,003
and one to cancel the existing contract.
Policeman Simpson told reporters he felt
sure everything was not right, and said
he had brought It to the attention of the
vice Orand Jury last July, but nothing
came of It. He has been on the police force
twenty-three years and has the reputation
of being the most-transferred policeman In
