GERMAN CAVALRY
RIDES INTO TRAP

Petrograd, Nov. 23.-Of the three
battle areas in the eastern theater or
war that between the Vistnla and the
Warthe Is now being marked with the
most desperate fighting of the entire
war.
Details of the lighting along the
banks OF the River Bzura, upon which
the Russians retired, bring ~frightful
stories of a trap into which the Ger
man cavalry rode.
The Russians, withdrawing along
the Bzura, mined the banks. The Ger.
mans pressed forward in hot pursuit,
seeking a crossing.
When the heavy detachment had
reached the river the mines would be
exploded. The destruction was terri
BILE. Men and horses were blown to
atoms. Wounded riders and their
mangled mounts were thrown into the
river.
The horses of survivors bolted and
leaped into the water. The bed oil
the river had been filled with barbed
wire and men and mounts became en-
tangled In a hopeless struggling mass
OF flesh.
The Russians also opened fire or
the tangle OF men and horses and but
few escaped. Those were immediate
ly made prisoners.

GUESSING At GERMAN PLANS
May Use Burning OIL to Drive Allies
From Trenches.

Paris. Nov. 23.-Reports indicate
that the Germans may be about to
use a new plan of driving the allied
troops from their trenches In Flanders
by the use OF huge steel barges of
burning oil.
Barges in great numbers have been
brought up from the rear, together
with great quantities of crude oil. 1t
IL believed to be the intention of the
Germans to launch these along the
User canal and In the inundated sec

Fighting along the northern front is

are signs of renewed activity of the
British at Arras, however, having for
Its objective the piercing of the Ger

CHRISTMAS DINNER IN
LONDON GERMANS SAY

London, Nov. 23.-Remarkable ru-
mors are circulating in London con-
oerning the means the Germans ex-
pect to use in reaching England.
Guns which can shoot across the
Straits of Dover, submarine trans
ports capable of landing large detach-
ments OF soldiers on the English
coast, and submarine forts along the
Belgian coast are among the mystic.
rious devices gossip credits Germany
with having in reserve.
The activity Of the Germans in pre-
pairing Notifications of some sort at
Zeebrugge, on the Belgian coast north
Of Ostend and not far from the mouth
of the Scheldt, had given rise to
many alarming stories. One is that
caissons are being sunk from which
the Germans will be able to fire tor.
pedoes. These c~aissons are supposed
to be permanent and of such charac.
ter that they can also be used to con
ceal disappearing guns which can In

Awaits Further Explanation of the
Meaning OF This Statement.
Washington. Nov. 23.-Captain Ben
ton C.. Decker of the cruiser Tennes
see has reported that the firing on
the ships launch by Turkish forts at
Smyrna, Asia Minor, was not intend
ed as a hostile act.
After a conference with President
Wilson Secretary Tumulty gave out
the following statement:
Boat from the Tennessee tried to
enter the harbor, which the Turkish
government had declared closed. A
shot was fired across her bow to stop
1t. The captain of the Tennessee re-
ports that 1t was not intended as a
hostile act.
"A full investigation of the matter
Is being made and explanations have
been asked of the Turkish govern
ment.
Further Delay Likely.
Previous attempts to communi'
| cate with Ambassador Morgenthau In
Constantinople have led to delays OF
| as much as a week"
Secretary Daniels authorized the
| statement that Captain Decker's first
message on Nov. Is, reporting the
| firing, contained the words, "act not
| hostile"
He announced that Captain Deck
er's dispatch reporting the firing con.
tanned the words, act not hostile,
| but unfriendly."
The navy department announce
| ment omitted the contradictory
| phrase, according to Mr.. Daniels, In
| order to verify it, and word has come
| that the message was correct as
originally sent. Secretary Daniels
was unable to explain its meaning
and said that 1t seemed to him an ex
| preston Of opinion OF the captain oil
