Indian Soldier Dies
To SdUe His Goat

LONDON, Nov. 20.-(By mail to
New York FLOW one of Britain's In
dian soldiers sacrificed his life for a
goat, is described by private in the
Black Watch Highlanders, In a letter
home.
"One Of the goats kept to provide
milk for the Indian" the Highlander
wrote. "strayed into the line Of fire.
1t became terrified when shells began
to burst around 1t. Its cries were
pitiful. Suddenly the dark figure OF
a Sikh rose above the trenches. The
Indian dashed out at lightning speed
into the death dealing shower. He
was seen by the Germans as he
reached the goat and was leading II
back when they fairly rained lead
on him. The bravery went for naught
for when the Indian was within so
yards OF our trenches, bursting shell
killed him and the animal"

/ fiict such defeat as unofficial reports
suggest. Tne heaviest fghting is still
| reported TO be In the vicinity of Lodz
and Lowicz Russian reports declare
a portion Of the forces in that vicinity
have been virtually surrounded and
are row vainly endeavoring to cut
their way out.
That reports OF Russian victory
have crossed the German frontier is
evidenced by dispatches today stating
that several thousand refugees from
Breslau have reached Munich, fearing
an attack from the Russians. The
greatest uneasiness Is felt In Breslau,
these refugees declare.
PARIS, Nov. 27.--A daring attempt
to mine allied trenches IN the vicin-
ity OF Arras was reported today. Ger
man sappers had succeeded In carry
ing mine trench we'll up to the Brit
lsh lines, working under cover of
darkness Only the discovery of the
enemy prevented the blowing up OF
the Britons with enormous loss OF
life.
Heavy cannonading with intermit-
tent infantry attacks continued today
along the great battle line stretching
across northern France and Belgium
In the Vosges operations are largely
suspended, owing to heavy SHOWS. On
the northern end of the line,
however, the Germans continue their
activity insofar as the weather will
permit. An attempt to throw pom.
toon bridge across the User was frus-
trated by an armored train OF the al
lies. II drove off the Germans, who
had all but completed their work.
Aviators have succeeded In dropping
bombs In several German positions.

OF faulty counting and crediting votes
10 the wrong man"
Justice Commands attorneys ad-
NIT that Boushaw's figures were not
accurate, but add that the throwing
out OF several ballots because they
were improperly marked, was In a
measure responsible for the change
In the returns.
Although corps OF lawyers In the
room made numerous objections to
the crediting OF certain ballots to one
or other OF the candidates, the re-
count OF the two other precincts of
the First ward showed only a small
change. In the second precinct OF
the First ward, Hanley lost seven
votes and Command lost FIVE. This
was due to the throwing out Of faulty
ballots. The first count in this pre-
cinct gave Hanley 263 and Command
25S. The recount credits Hanley with
256 and Command with 253. The Or
iginal count of the third precinct of
the First, gave Hanley 81 and Com
mand 70. The recount shows 93 for
Hanley and 80 for Command.
Edwin Henderson, attorney for
Hanley, formally objected to the
counting OF eight votes Of the FIRST
or the First" because the numbers on
the ballots had not been removed.
He said they were distinguishing
marks, which are contrary to law.
Alex j. Groesbeck, one OF Commands
lawyers, made an objection to the
counting OF four ballots OF the third
precinct OF the First ward, because
the ballots had no initials. Judge
Durfee ordered these ballots counted
Many other objections and argu-
ments arose over technicalities. Stem

Russians Defeat Germans
Declares Lord Kitchener

LONDON, Nov. 27.-"The Russians
have defeated the Germans with the
heaviest losses yet suffered. the Ger
mans have made no advance since
last addressed this house, and the
British are in touch with Turkish
forces 80 miles east of the Suez ca
nal" declared Field Marshal Kitcn-
ener in the house or lords, Thursday,
when summarizing the military opera
tions.
Lord Kitchener paid tribute to
the gallantry OF the Belgian army
and to King Albert, who, he declared,
had no intention OF quitting Belgian
territory. He said the losses Of the
allies were great, but at the same
time, were slight compared with those
or the enemy, and that the allied
troops were In excellent spirits and
confident Of success.
Regarding recruiting, Earl Kitch-
ener said he still had room for men
and he was confident that the men
would answer the country's call and
see that the war was brought to
successful conclusion. He said that
about 10000 recruits were enlisting
weekly.
"The time will come when we hall
require many more, and l will then
make It thoroughly we'll known" the
field marshal said, and added that In
the meantime all the gaps in the Brit.
ish force on the continent had cen
filled.
Referring to the German advance
on Dunkirk and Calais, after the cap
ture of Antwerp, Lord Kitchener men,
toned that In spite of the over
whelming numbers Of the German
forces, the British troops vigorously
attacked and British cavalry d.
vision extending over seven miles OF
trenches threw back the fierce at
tacks OF whole German army corps
for more than two days.
