GERMANS SLAUGHTERED
IN RUSSIAN TRAP

pendent.
The Germans appear to have fall
en- into a Russian trap the cores
pendent says. ION September % the
rear guard of the Russian General
Rennenkampf's army was transferred
to the right bank of the river and
the following evening the Germans
approached the stream. The next day,
seeing no signs of opposition, the
Germans proceeded to construct
bridges and completed this work
without molestation.
1T was only when the troops were
pouring across to the right bank in
fancied security that sound like the
roll of thunder was heard and dozens
OF Russian guns. cleverly posted and
screened opened their concentrated
fire on the crowded bridges
Before the blast of shrapnel and
machine gun proiectles, the Germans
were swept into the river by hun
dreds. Speedily, however, the chal-
lenge of the Russian guns was taken
up by the German artillery and for
long time the duel continued.
AT last the Germans, thinking they
had got the measure Of the Russian
sunners, made another attempt To
throw their troops across the Niemen
But this time also they had no better
luck and not one of the soldiers who
stepped upon the bridges either reach
ed the opposite shore or returned
The bodies of the slain floated in
hundreds down the yellow flood of
the Niemen Still the Germans vigor-
ously maintained their bombardment
and about 6 o'clock in the evening
made last and desperate effort to
utilize the bridges on which they had
spent such pains
Columns in close formation were
sent forward to the crossings, but
once again every man was moved
down by the murderous fire OF the
Russian machine guns.
With the fall Of evening the Ger
man batteries were silenced one after
the other By the steady and well dl-
rected fire OF the Russian artillerists.
The enemy then fell back eight miles, !
pursued and harrassed by Cossaeks, |
who had crossed the river on the Ger
man bridges
According to one account no fewer
than 10000 German corpses were car
ried down the Niemen after this awful !

FUNERAL YESTERDAY

The funeral services over the re- mains of Glenn Openshaw, were con- ducted yesterday afternoon from the residence of his parents at 3:30 o'clock with interment in the Mesa cemetery The accounts of the tragedy are at variance. However, it seems that the lads father had warned him against fishing in the deep pool immediately east of the dam and that the boy had taken gun and had shot fish and had later walked in to secure it, when he stepped in a hole and was unable to swim out. The water at this point as it flows through the tunnel, is very swift and the lad, no matter how good a swimmer he might have been, could not have Withstood the terrible Whirl- ing waters. Immediately after the dis covery that the boy had gone down the water was turned out of the tunnel and when once the pool became quiet, his body could be seen lying on the bottom of the stream. The body was brought to this place and placed in charge of Undertaken Burton of burial.
