New York, Dec. l5.-Special The
Germans in Belgium are again di-
recting their attention to the central
point of Ypres, where the German in
fantry have been repulsed. At both
ends of the long front to the north
east OF Ypres and against the railway
stations at Ashach, in Alsace, the
failure of attempts by the Germans
to advance is officially announced
from Paris, which adds that another
important advance by the French
troops in the forest of LePretre has
been made. In the east the Russian
general staff makes the definite de-
c~laration:
TN the Miawa region W. have
brought our offensive to a successful
conclusion on the whole of the

The occupation of a German posi-
ton near Przasnysz, and the retreat
of the Germans toward the East

THE SYSTEM SUCCEEDS
NADISON'S GRAND SUCCESS IN
DER THE COMMISSION PLAN
OF GOVERNMENT.

That the commission system of
municipal government is proving a
success in Madison beyond the expec-
tations of our citizens, is every day
more apparent. Since taking on the
system two and a half year ago, the
business Of the city has been man
aged without the old-time friction by
the three men in charge-Mayor
Waskey, Commissioners Kundert and
Johnson. There has been a business
swing TO the handling of affairs thai
is apparently equal to any banking
institution in the city-and the city
is making money rapidly. The com
missioners meet in session every
Monday evening. and hardly a day
passes that they are not together
looking after something in the way
of city business. 4 monthly meeting
is held the first Monday evening of
each month at which the business af-
fairs of the preceding month are
taken up and adjusted. bills allow
ed. contracts let and the heavier
business of the city transacted. Com
menting on the last monthly meeting.
The Daily Leader referred to the fact
that the commissioners had decided
to add machinery to the electric
lighting plant of the city to the ex-
tent of $4,000 and that the i'm
provement would be made out of the
earnings of the plant. $16,S00 of the
amount being already in the electric
fund-earnings of the plant since it
came under the management of the
present board of commissioners. The
Daily Leader was, of course, some
what complimentary i'm its remarks
and indicated that our citizens were
to he congratulated upon the excel
lent management of their public bust
ness. Later discussing city affairs
with Commissioner Kundert, The
| Daily Leader was informed that only
a small part of the earnings of the
| city from it's taxing and
| otherwise were represented in the
| earnings of the electric light plant,
| and to prove this Commissioner Kun
| dert gave the following figures:
| Waterworks bonds paid $685. 600
/ ~ miles water mains ... $500
l Gas producer at plant ..... $500
New well at water plant 1000
Earnings electric plant in
tund OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. $500
Total .$54, SOU
The above represents bonds paid
off, permanent improvements made
and cash on hand for permanent i'm
~provements during the past two and
a half years since the city Of Mad.
ison adopted the commission plaI
and the affairs of the city were placed
in the hands OF the present board o.
commissioners. Without specifying
the amount. Commissioner Kunder
also states that the taxes of the cit,
are somewhat lower at the presen
time than under the old system o
the ward aldermen government.
We believe this is a showing o
municipal business management tina
cannot be duplicated by any town il
the state during the short period tn
present commission has had charge
of the affairs Of Madison.

threatened last night over the ar
rest of whaleboat load OF Amerl-
can marines at Tampico by Colonel
Hlinojosa. 4 subordinate federal Of
ficer. has apparently passed over
with the prompt release OF tn"
Americans and an apology from DC

ishmeut for any federal officer found
guilty of this offense.
The time limit set by Admiral
MAYO which gave the federals un-
til 6 O'Clock yesterday evening TO
salute the American flag has passed
without anything being heard. II
is believed that the salute was made
and satisfaction otherwise given the
Americans.
The Americans who went unarnl-
cd ashore after gasoline and who
were arrested when parading in the
streets are not believed TO have been
acting in any offensive manner.
