SAVES DOCS LIFE
At COST OF OWN
BABE STRUCK BY CAR WHILE
RESCUING PET
Little Feyne Hull Terribly Injured
in View Of His Father, Whom
g He Was Running to
Welcome

To save his dog from being rui
over by a car little Feyne Hull, th'
five-year-old son of Frederick Hull
COL Ezra street, rushed upon the tracks
last evening and in view of the hor-
rified father, dragged his pet from
danger only to be struck himself ano
perhaps fatally injured.
Feyne and his six-year-old brother
Verle, accompanied by their pet dog
was walking north on Evergreen av-
enue near Fourth street, about
o'clock, presumably to meet the father,
who is accustomed to go home in the
evenings on the Euclid avenue car.
A car was approaching and the IA
ther of the two little boys was seen
on the front seat. 1t is thought the
dog, recognizing Hull, ran upon the
track Feyne, thinking only of the
dogs safety, sprang between the rails,
and was dragging his pet away when
the bottom step of the car struck him.
The dog escaped injury.
Hull carried the babe home and the
dog followed whimpering. Doctors
were called and in addition to five
inch cash on the head the child had
sustained concussion of the brain. The
physicians fear the injuries will prove
fatal.
Hull blames the motorman. He
says the car was going at full speed
and that instead of shutting off the
power and using the brake the motor
man rang mis- gong and shouted for
the child to get off the track.
Hull is an employe of the Penn Oil
Delivery company.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The sud-

RUSSIAN ARMY
IN MUCH PERIL
FEARS THAT LlNEvITCH MAY
BE CUT OFF
MAY HAVE TO RETREAT FAR
Greatly Inferior to Japanese In Num-
bers, and Successful Turning
Movement by Them Con-
sidered Very Feasible
By Assoclated press.

BY Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, March 24.-Ths
possibility that, IL the Russian army
should be unable to hold the lower
line of the Sungari river at Chunchi-
atsu. 1t may be compelled to retreat
not only to Harbin, but also further
westward along the railroad, abandon
ing to the Japanese Northern Manchu-
ria and the Russian maritime Amur
provinces, is the latest startling news
from the front.
The strategic weakness of General
Linevitchs position as he falls back
northward is made clear by Gunshu
dispatches to the Associated Press, in
which it is pointed out that unless
Chunchiatsu and the Sungari lines,
scant hundred miles below Harbin. can
be held it will be difficult to maintain
a position farther back before Hardin,
where, with the front of the army
paralleling the railroad, the practica-
bility of a turning movement to COM
pletely sever communications and iso<
late the army 5000 miles from home Is
too serious for Russian consideration.
In view of this possibility the dispatch
alluded to suggests the advisability Of
Immediately providing Vladivostok
with war munitions and supplies for
two years siege.
The correspondent estimates the
number of reinforcements needed to
give General Linevitch the requisite
superiority In force at 100000. With
Manchuria entirely abandoned to the
Japanese, and Vladivostok left as Rus
sia's solitary sentinel on the Pacific, 1t
is realized that Russia will be prac-
tically at Japan's mercy in the matter
of peace terms.
