Thrilling Trip of Erwin Ar mold, Chief Engineer of
 Destroyer McDougal
HURRIES HOME FROM
 HAMPTON ROADS, VA.
Happy Furlough Is Blighted By Death of First Born
 Wife's Condition Critical

Out over the storm-tossed waters of the Atlantic, by order of the navy de- partment at Washington, early Mon day morning flashed wireless mes- sage to the Torpedo Boat Destroyer 'tMcDouglas'' summoning Chief Engi- neer Erwin Arnold to the bedside of his wife at Bridgeport hospital where the arrival of their first born was ex- pected. Obtaining a hurried furlough from his commander, Captain Palmer, and only waiting to change clothes he insisted upon starting out for the nearest point of land at Hampton Roads in a small motor launch.
 Unsuccessfully, fellow officers tried to pursuade him to wait until the gale quilted or until the "McDougaP' was nearer land. Over seas that nomen- tarily threatened to swamp the tiny launch he guided the craft to land, reaching there in time to connect with an early through train for New York. He reached Bridgeport Mon day night, got a. taxicab for the. hos pitaI and was soon at his wife's bed side.
 The storlz arrived Wednesday bring ing boy that was named Stewart T. Arnold From the start of it's life was despaired of, death claiming it yesterday. This morning at Il o'clock with Mrs. Arnold reported in a serious condition, the sorrowing father with relatives and friends attended the fu- neral from the mortuary chapel of Walker & Banks on Fairfield avenue. Burial was. in L4akeview cemetery.
 In summontng MT. Arnold to Bridgeport, the aid of the navy de- partment at Washington was enlisted in order to locate the ''McDougaP' and to get word to her commander. As the furlouEh granted was only Of the emergency and temporary type, a report of the baby.s death was for warded to the navy department last night and the Although extended un- til next Monday when he is ordered to join his ship at Hampton Roads.
 Much concern is being felt over the condition Of Mrs. Arnold, who was Miss Olive E. Sharpe of this city be- fore her marriage.

UNIONS WARN MEN OF TWO. SCHOOL JOBS
North Avenue and Bryant Schools Are Subjects of Discussion Among Build ing Crafts.

Strikes may be called by the Brick layers union upon the new North ave- nue and Bryant schools, where non- union help is being employed in their erection All unemployed union brick layers in the city of Bridgeport have been warned by their union to re- main away from the buildings, and it is likely that conferences between the Bricklayers' union and the carpenters employed in the work may result in the withdrawal of that body from construction work.
 Little information could be obtained from business agents of the unions today, other than that all union men on the two school jobs may be called out.
 The North avenue school is being built by s. W. Hubbe1l and the Bry- ant school on Map1ewood avenue by Casey & Hurley. It Is said that they have refused to employ union brick layers. though many union carpenters are at work upon the same edifces.
 It is the opinion of many members of the Bricksayers' union that it is unfair for union carpenters to con tinue to work with non-union labor, and though there has not been close affiliations between the bricklayers and carpenters for some years, agita- ton which may result in a general strike is being stimulated throughout the ranks of both bodies.

EvIInlE SILKS GERMAl BATTLESHIP; SUI TAN
 PLAnuS SUEz ATTACK
Summary
 OF THE w ar News

England is confronted with the necessity of energetic action, ac. cordfng to advices today from Berlin to protect her interests in the near east. A report from Cairo to Berlin is to the effect that 76,000 Turkish troops are 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 10000 Bedouins. Interest at taches to this report chiefly be- cause of the recent proclamation of the Sultan of Turkey calling upon Mohammedans the world over to rise to arms against Great Britain and the other members of the triple entente. Thus far there have been no indications that the proclamation has led to uprisings affecting British forces elsewhere za1though on several occasions there have been reports rom Berlin of dissention in India.
 The destruction of German batt1eship is reported in Paris. The Wilhelm Der Crosse is said to have been sunk by mine in the Baltic, but there was no con- f1rmation of the report.
 An official communication from the Russian army of the Caucasus tells. O further heavy fighting by the Russian forces which have invaded Turkey, but gives no indication of the outs come.
 The situation in Russian Poland was as much of a mystery as ever. Private despatches from ] -Petrograd make further state +~ +he+ DI1ssfa has over whelmed tl1e Germans but they are not confirmed officially.
 4e ~ 4cllo Aas, the Rus sian commander. reports success es in several engagements but says nothing to indicate that the decisive blow has been struck.@
 On the western battlehelds there was continued calm. The British fleet is said to have re- stunned bombardnent of German positions on the Belgian coast. Along the front the fighting ap- parent1y was limited to small skirmishes.

 This army includes 10000 Bedouins with 800 camels, and the reports also. state that the Turks have built a field rail way to the Elnakel oasis.
 The road to the Suez canal, according to the despatch, is barricaded by the British with a long line of trenches and with artillery positions.

BATTLE IN POLAND RANKS WITH SEDAN,
 ARMY EXPERTS SAY

London, Nov 28.-While newspaper reports from Petrograd continue to claim victory in northern, Poland comparable at, least to Sedan and even worthy to rana with tic o-sasGer which Russia inflicted upon Napoleon, official communications shed but little light: on the situation in Poland.
 An official despatch from Grand Duke Nicholas, omnander-in chief of the Russian forces in. the field, while of considerable length concerns itself largely with more or less isolat- ed operations and does not claim the inf1iction of overwhelming defeat upon the invaders.
 The Grand Duke sums up the situa- ~tion with the declaration that on the entire front between the VistuIa and gressing in favor Of Russian arms. Both Berlin and Vienna still claim that no decisive result has followed the recent operations in Russian Po- land. S
 On the western battle front the Hull stii1 prevails, the only hint of activity being found in the report from Hols land that the British fleet again is op- erating against the German positions on the Belgian coast
 The visit of Sir Roger Easement, who became famous as the investiga- tor of the Putumayo robber atroei= ties to the Berlin foreign office, IS be- ing prominently featured by the Lon don papers The comment, however. is rather reserved. On the whole. the press seems frankly puzzled by the episode which indicates that direct neeotiations between Germany and the extreme section of the Irish na- tionalists have. been going on-
 The British public have been great I,y treasured by the statement of MT Churchill, first lord of the admiralty concerning the naval position of the empire. This has been supplemented bv the official French report that the combined fleet not only have com mand of the Mediterranean but are maintaining successful blockade OF the Adriatic and the Dardanelles.
 From Petrograd comes. much de- Iayed account of a surprise attack by a Russian fleet which, it is claimed, resulted in serious disaster to the German Baltic squadron in the month of SeptembeT.
