IN TRAP. REPORT
The Kaiser's Troops Now Said to Be
Fighting Their Way Back to the
Vistula Under Terrible Artillery
Fire of the Russians
Amsterdam, Via London Nov. 28, 9
A. M. —According to a Berlin message
to the •' Telegraaf,' Cairo reports that
7 0,000 Turkish troops under Izzet
I'asha are marching against the Suez ca
nal. This army includes 10,000 Bed-
ouins, with 500 camels. The report
also states that the Turks have built
« field railway to the Elenakel oasis.
The road to the Suez canal, accord
ing to the dispatch, is barricaded by
the British with a long line of trenches
and with artillery positions.
Says German Task Is Hopeless
London, Nov. 28, 3.65 A. M.—The
"Daily Mail's" Petrograd correspond
ent, who, in common w T ith other Petro
grad correspondents, hints that there is
to come still bigger news which they ar
unable at this time to tarnsmit, 'says
the possibility which seemed to exist
that the German forces which escaped
tlhe envelopment movement east of
Lodz would succeed in breaking
through near Strykorw and joining the
.k at of the German fore«s now appears
hopeless.
This German force, adds the corre
spondent, is fighting its way back in
the direction of the Vistula under a ter
rible artillery fire, which is causing an
•.palling loss of life. The Germans
are reported to be short both of food
and of shells as a result of being cut
off from their base.
Reports Engagement With Turks
Paris, Nov. 28, 10.40 A. M.—A dis
patch received here from Petrograd
quotes an official announcement from
the headquarters of the Russian army
in the Causasus as follows:
"An important engagement occurred
November 27 with a Turkish column to
the west of Juzvern. In other sections
of this front there have been engage
ments of only minor importance."
Losses of Germans In Poland
Paris, Nov, 28, 1.45 A. M.—The
correspondent of the "Matin" in
(Petrograd says he learns from highly
competent sources that the losses of the
Germans in Poland on November 25
were considerable and that an army
corps was made prisoner and another
corps was routed.
General Von Hindenburg, the Ger
man commander, it is stated, received
the following telegram from Emperor
William before the battle of Lodz:
"Distinguish yourself. Tho eyes of the
•world are upon you."
WILHELIH DERIROSSE IS
REPORTED SUNK IN BALTIC
THROUGH STRIKING MINE
Paris, Nov. 28, 10.45 A. M. —A dis
patch to the "Matin" from Petrograd
states that it is reported there that the
German battleship Wilhelm Der Grosse
struck a mine and sank in the Baltic,
but adds that there is no official con
firmation of the rumor.
The batbleship Kaiser Wilhelm Der
Grosse, evidently referred to the
"Matin" dispatch, is one of Ger
many's old battleships, having been
built in 1901. The warship is of 10,-
790 tons displacement and carries a
crew of 658 men. Her main battery is
composed of four 9.4-inch and four
teen 6-inch guns.

in London that Dixmude has been re
occupied by the allies.
British Fleets Bombarding Coast?
Amsterdam, via London, Nov. 28,
9.30 A. M.—A telegram to the
"Nieuwo Robterdamsrhe Courant"
from Oowtburg, Holland, states that
sounds of a violent cannon fire were
again audible Friday in a southeasterly
direction. The sound, tho telegTam
says, indicates that the 'British fleet
was again bombarding the coast.

LATE WAR NEWS SUMMARY
The German attack In Belgium just
north of the French border continues,
although not with sufficient force to In
dicate that the expected new attempt
to pierce the line and force a way to
the English channel had been begun In
earnest. Only one Infantry attack was
made in that region yesterday and It
was repulsed, says to-day's French offi
cial announcement.
A German aeroplane carrying three
men was brought down by artillery fire,
the French War Office reports, result
ing in the death of one of the avi
ators and the capture of the others.
The German artillery fire is said to be
diminishing in intensity and In some
districts to have suffered severely from
the French guns.
England Is confronted with the neces
sity of energetic action, according to
advices to-day from Berlin, to protoct
her interests in the near east. A re
port from Cairo to Berlin Is to the ef
fect that the movement against British
forces In Egypt has assumed formid
able proportions, 76,000 Turkish troops
being on the march toward the Suez
canal.
In the hostile army opposed by long
lines of British forces in trenches it is
said that there are 10,000 Bedouins.
Interest attached to this report chiefly
because of the recent proclamation of
the Sultan of Turkey calling upon Mo-
Coatlnued on Twelfth Page.

guilty of murder in the first degree.

parole from the penitentiary at the
time of the /mirder,
The trial »i the man was unique-in
"thfct the right to have a jury decide
the facts in the case was waived by
the defendant and the.hearing bore the
semblance of involving only a petty
larceny charge. Prior to the trial it
was said by Morgenthau's counsel that
a plea of self-defense would be set up,
but this plan was abandoned.
When the plea of guilty had been en
tered and the jurors discharged Judge
Sadler heard the witnesses on both
sides and later heard argument from
counsel dealing with the legal issues
which figured in determining the de
gree of the crime.

FIRST OF THE NEW FEDERAL
DANK NOTES HERE TO-DAY
Demand Is Brisk This Morning at the
First National Bank for Five and
Ten Dollar Bills Which Have Just
Arrived Fresh From the Mint
New money started to get in circula
tion in Harrisburg to-day. Perhaps the
general public has not yet seen much
of it. There is a. reason. The new
currency is in the form of five-dollar
and ten-dollar bills. These bills do not
have any greater face value than the
ordinary five spots and ten spots, but
they look mighty fine and dignified,
fresh from the Philadelphia mint, as
they are, and not yet tainted by the
touch of grasping fists.
These green-backs are not only fine
and dignified in appearance, but they
are also reserved. They are so re
served that they only suffer themselves
to be retained by fortunate beings who
are in the habit of carrying ten dol
lar* or so about in their pockets from
time to time. "Reserved" is the word,
for the noteg describe themselves on
their faces, in bold type as " Federal
Reserve Notes."
The fact about the new money,
which arouses so much sentiment in the
human breast at aiight of it, is that the
new Federal Reserve Bank which so
auspiciously open ad recently, has begun
to issue its own notes, so far only of
the five and ten-dollar denominations.
The First National bank on Market
street to-day received the first supply

The men are Dr. John F. C'ulp, presi

REVENUE STAMPS GO ON
SHIPPING BILLS TUESDAY
Pennsylvania Railroad Instructs Its
Agents to Be Prepared—Post-of
fices Will Sell Stamps—The Ship
pers Must Fay For Them
The Pennsylvania railroad announc
ed to-day that on and after next Tues
day, every bill of lading, manifest or
evidence of receipt for each shipment
on a railroad, whether in bulk or pack
ages, must bear an internal revenue
stamp, one cent in value, furnished by
the shipper. This must be done to
meet the requirements of the act of
Congress as approved October 22,
1914.
Accordingly, the Pennsylvania rail
road is sending to its agents specific
instructions to govern them in carry
ing out the provisions of the law. Rev
enue stamps will be sold at all postof
fices, and it is expected that shippers
will obtain their supplies there, as the
law requires that the revenue stamp
for bills of lading must be provided by
the shipper. However, as a convenience
to its patrons, the Pennsylvania rail
road will endeavor to have its agents
and conductors supplied with stamps,
which may be sold to shippers.
Some idea of what task it will bo
for the Pennsylvania railroad, east of
Pittsburgh alon«, to see that the law's
mandates are carried out, can be had
from the fact that ii issues some 50,-
000 bills of lading and freight receipts
every day.
MARRIAGE LICENSES TO COST
20 CENTS MORE ON TUESDAY
Unless he receives a legal ruling to
t'he contrary, Oscar G. Wickersham,
Dauphin County's Recorder, will, be
ginning with next Tuesday, place war
tax revenue stamps on all marriage li
censes and charge twenty cents addi
tional for e«ch paper granted. The
Recorder lias been instructed to charge
ten cents for eacih certificate issued
sind as two certificates are handed out
in marriage licenses, tdie charge will
be double that amount.
Where the contracting parties have
attained their majority, the charge
will be |1.20. If one is a minor,
making it necessary for the parents to
give consent, the charge will be 1.70,
■and if both are minors, and consent be
given in each case, the cost will be
$2.20.

Much of Dr. Stough's lecture to
