SACRIFICE OF LIFE
Continued from Page y

There is some talk of the Germans
bringing their big 81 centimeter guns
to the coast to use against the allies
warships but the British sailors ara
credited with saying that their YES
sells can prevent hese guns being put
in position. They claim that even II
they should be mounted they will not
be so deadly against fast moving
target as they were against the sta
tionary forts which they destroyed
so easily.
While this life and death struggle
is going on in the West, the French
have become more active in the East
along the Alsatian border and are said
to be making preparations and secur-
ing advanced positions in spite of Wig
orous attacks of the Germans with
their big howitzers. 1t now seems to be
realized that no fortress has any
chance Of holding out when once these
big German guns are brought into ac-
ton against it.
In Galicia and in the Carpathians.
the Russians also claim to have broken
down the Austrian offensive.
AS the days come and 60 and the
visit of the Zeppelin airships to Eng
land do not materialize, they are be-
ginning to believe that these airships
are being held in reserve for the day
when the German ships come out to
assist the warships in an endeavor to
cripple the British fleet.

tiitor of Sing Sing prison, was committed
to jail today in contempt of court for re-
fusing to answer questions before the
grand jury investigating automobile rides
and other favors alleged to have been
granted to David A Sullivan, an inmate
of Sing Sing.

the bank, and that he had been taken
on automobile rides about the country
while he was supposed to be in the prfs-
on, caused an investigation by District
Attorney Cropsey of Brooklyn.
Governor Glynn took cognizance last
night of the reports of favoritisn shown
Sullivan at Sing Sing by directing John
Riley. state superintendent of prisons, to
go to Sing Sing personally, investigate
and report back to the governor.
Mr. Cropsey's assistant, Louis Gold
stein, today called Mr.. Malloy before the
grand jury to question him. Mr. Malloy
refused to answer on the ground that
the Kings county grand jury lacked jul

GERMANS ATTACKING

Paris, Oct. 26.-11.36 P. NJ
The smashing tactics of the
Germans along the North sea
coast lines continued necessarily
today, when the big guns were
turned on Newport and the AL
lies had to withstand constant
attacks of masses of troops.
Very little progress, however,
was made by the Germans, who
were faced with the strongest
resistance.
Yesterdays crossing of the
User apparently had only a NOR
al effect, as the Germans were
confronted by a solid line of al
lied troops and were prevented
from advancing, without over
whelming efforts, further to-
ward the channel ports. The
character of the country prohib-
its a rapid movement as the land
is cut up by canals and two
strong series Of defensive works
separate them from Dunkirk.

LOWNEY BACK IN !
GAME FOR COLBY
SPORTING NOTES

Waterville, Me-, Oct. 26.--fspeciaD.--
Colby's track team will miss Lewis X.
Murchie in the meets next spring. Muir
chic was Colby's star in the hammer
throw. He prepared at Coburn Classical
Institute, where he first showed an
adaptability to this particular sport In
the Maine meet he was unable to show
up in his best form due to- his inability
to remain inside the ring, but the fol-
lowing week at the New England meet
held at Harvard he succeeded in landing
second place. Murchie came to Colby
from Concord, N. H.. but later moved to
Matran, ILL.,, where he now resides, and is
attending the University of Indiana.
The football enthusiasts were. greatly
pleased Monday night when they saw
Jack Lowney out in uniform for the first
time this season. Lowney has been I'M
able to play. due to certain faculty re-
strictions, but 1t is understood that these
have been cleared away and he q will
doubtless be able to take part in the
game with the University Of Maine next
Saturday. This fact will probably cause
a little regret at the camp of the Maine
boys as Lowney's ability as ground
gamer Is fully recognized and dreaded
by the other colleges.
The Colby squad had things rather easy
Monday night. The practice was of
shorter order than usual consisting of
a short drill in signals and then short
but snappy scrimmage with the second
team. The squad was larger than any
time during last week. as several men
reported who have been nursing injuries.
The team on the whole is none the worse
from the Bowdoin game. the only man
being unable to report was Belger. the
fast right halfback. who Is suffering
from slight injuries received Saturday.
but it Is expected thet he will be able to
report in day or so. - a4
