MlSBRANDlNG FREIGHT
COSTS DEALER $1,000

New York, March G.--Sending 500,
600 cartridges to the rcyoWtionists In
northern Mexico cost George Norden-
holt, q local ammunition dealer. $1,000
not because the cartridges Wcro con-
traband but because they were billed
as nails Nordenholt pleaded guilty
today I'M Federal court o. violating
the interstate commerce laws ana
paid his fine.
BY shipping the cartridges in 400
kegs covered with a top layer of nails
and describing them as nails, Nordcn-
holt saved $500 in freight charges.
rhe shipment probably would have
reached IT'S destination without in-
teiruption had not one of the kegs
broken open in the freight house ot
Naco, Ariz, Just as the consignment
was to pass into the hands of Cawan-
N the Mexican constutionalist
leader.
Pr '4idcnt Wilson had raised the em-
barge on munitions of war a few days
before this happened hut the Unit
ed states authorities immediately
made am investigation and arrested
Nordenholt for misbrandng inter
state freight.

DISTURBANCE IN BRAZIL
NOT BELIEVED SERIOUS

Washington, March 6.-Advices to
the Brazilian embassy late today
from Rio Janeiro said the capital was
quiet and that there was no ground
for alarm on account OF the disturb
ance which caused a proclamation of
martial law. The government, Am
bassador DaGamG announced, was in
control of the situation and that the
state OF siege proclaimed until the
end Of the month, as precautionary
measure, might be raised before that
time. Today's dispatches to the state
department said that the American
embassy does not regard that the
lives OF property of American citizens
either in Ceara or In the cities un-
der martial law are endangered.

ding the states of Delaware, New Jer-
sey and Rhode Island to the list Of

sets, Pennsylvania, Indiana. Illinois,

London, Nov. 1.-THE old Belgian
| town of Ypres was destroyed by Ger
| man artillery, including some of the
| most ancient Flemish architecture.
Ypres was the center of attack in
the third desperate effort of the Kai-
ser's army to take possession of the
North Sea coast, coming after a lull
of nine days in the fighting along the
battle lines in Belgium and northern
France.
1t is also reported from Ostend that
the British fleet has been driven away
from the coast by the fire Of heavy
German artillery.
These events mark the opening OF
what military experts declare will be
the most desperate fighting of the war,
and the result Of the fighting will have
an important bearing on the outcome
of the general conflict.
Until Monday the allies had been
making important advances, but now
the Germans claim to have repulsed a
sortie near Nieuport with heavy losses
to the English and French. The Ber-
lin war office also says that steady
gains are being made against the al
lies southwest of Ypres, where they
claim to have taken thousands of pris-
oners.
An official dispatch from Constan-
tinople says that the Turkish fleet
shelled near Kosloe portion of the
Russian fleet, which, however, man.
aged to escape. with the Turkish ships
in pursuit.
Despite the reverses which the Aus
tro-German armies have suffered in
the East, where the Russians have
now set their feet in German terri
tory, both in East Prussia and Posen,
the Germans are said to be still send
ing reinforcements to the west IN an
endeavor to break down the resistance
who have been holding their positions.
There has, however, as yet been no
decisive action fought along the
whole front, but each side is making
gains which may count when the crisis
is at hand. With the tremendous
forces opposing each other any prog
ress may necessarily be slow in these
lays of siege battles, but both the al
lies and the Germans express satisfac-
ton with the way in which the battle
has gone thus far.
The slackness in the recruiting in
England has been stopped by the
marches of some of the crack terrific
rial regiments, and Mondays process
sion through the streets of London, in
connection with the inauguration OF
the lord mayor. in which the Canadian
and other dominion troops took part.
From all sections of the country come
reports of an increasing number OF
young men offering themselves for
| service.
The following official communication
was issued by the French war office
| last night:
There has been no notable modifi-
cation in the situation by reason of the
difficulties which an intense fog has
created in connection with operations
Of any extent. In the north the day
has been good We have maintained
our positions between the river Lys
and Langemarck and made apprec1a-
BILE progress between Langemarck and
Dixmude."

After twenty-four hours Of uncer-
tainty, during which hope was ex-
pressed that the porte might make

Sea, the British admiralty announced
that the British cruiser Minerva had
destroyed the Turkish barracks at
Akabah on the Turko-Egyptian from.
tier. Akabah is at the head of the
Gulf of Akabah, an arm of the Red
Sea. $50 miles east Of Suez.
Russians Claim Big Victory.
Grand Duke Nicholas, comman-
der-in-chief of the Russian forces
in the field, has sent telegram to
General Joffre, commander-in-chief OF
the French forces, saying the Russians
have gained in East Prussia the great
est victory since the beginning of the
war.
The Russians have recaptured the
Galician town of Jaroslau and have
taken five thousand Austrian prison
ers. Jaroslau is seventeen miles
OF the Austrian fortress of
Przemysl.
The Austrian attempts to cut off the
Russian attackers finally have broken
down, and the Austrians now are in
retreat along the San River.
Austrian troops are pushing through
the Carpathians to support the Aus
trian army falling back before the
Russians west of the San River. A
correspondent at Lemberg states that
these troops have been exhausted by
the struggle through the snow-filled
mountain passes.
German Retreat, Russians Say.
The Russian war office says the Ger
mans are retreating prec1pitately into
East Prussia with the Russian armies
harrassing them at every point. The
cold weather has apparently demoral-
lied the Germans and many of them
are reported surrendering without q
fight.
Long German Retreat.
The new position OF the German
army front, along the River Warthe
over seventy-five miles west of the
Vistula river, which they reached at
the time Of the attempted attack on
Warsaw, indicates the tremendous re-
treat of General Won Hindenberg's en-
tire army in Poland the last two
weeks. This retreat Is regarded as
especially important since such noted
industrial centers as Lodz, Piotrkow,
Radon and Kielce are recaptured by
the Russians. The strategic point at
Sandomir, which is at the junction of
the San and Vistula rivers, has also
been retaken.

Vera Cruz.-AccordiEg to private
kilograms received here, the National
Bank Of Mexico City has been sacked
by a mob led by Constitutionalist sol.
diers. This is the biggest bank in the
republic and holds much of the gov
ernment funds.
1t is reported that the port Of Aca-
pulco on the Pacific has been occupied
by American marines.
The occupation is said to have fol-
lowed request of the Inhabitants, who
were suffering great privations owing
to the revolution.
Gen. Venustiano Carranza issued an
ultimatum declaring himself the chief
head of the republic. The proclama-
ton was issued at Cordoba and d.
rected to the military chieftains and
the civil employees of the central gov.
ernment, who were ordered to obey
Carranza as first chief Of the Con-
stitutionalists and to disregard totally
the mandates Of the Aguas Calientes
convention.
To the military chieftains, he said
that, unless they left the conference
and were back at their posts, their
next in rank would assume their
places.
Rogue Estrada, private secretary of
General Carranza, said:
1--WE have exhausted all legitimate
means to bring about a peaceful ar
rangement Of this trouble. The Aguas
Calientes convention must obey Cen
eral Carranza or the delegates to it
will be treated as traitors"
Heavy fighting has been in progress

RELATIVE TO THE LIGHTING RATES

We note that the Hood River News.
which contained such glowing editor
ial in last weeks issue relative to the
fairness of lighting rates, is as quiet
this week as the proverbial church
mouse. Is the News making prepara-
tions to get on the right side of the
fence2
The people of Hood River are inter-
sted in the lighting rates. and the pro-
posed increase as asked by the COM
panies. The rates, as the Glacier. has
formerly stated. ARE just about as much
as the traffic will bear. and the light
ing companies may force the people to
seek relief by a municipal plant.
A few questions on the lighting situ-
alton:
Should the people of Hood River pay
exorbitant lighting rates that the COM
panies may make return on an outrag-
eous valuation2
Should the people of Hood River pay
to keep two offices in operation, when
one, with less red tape would take care
of the business?
Doesn't it seem to be fact that the
two local companies are separate anc
distinct in name only?
