BOMBARDING FORTS
In France, the Allies Made
Some Progress Against
Germans East of Nieu-
port on the User River,
According to an lOfficia
Statement

No British warships are in the Chilean
waters, and the fate of the three British
cruisers that engaged five German war
ships off the coast of Chile and the trans
port accompanying them remains mys-
terry. dispatch from Santiago to-day
disposes of earlier reports that two ves-
sells have been bottled up in Chilean wa
ters by the Germans.
Great Britain has declared war on Tur-
key, and the Ottoman government, de-
spite the dissensions in the cabinet, is
committed to hostilities against Great
Britain, Russia, France and Servia, which
formed part of the Turkish empire.
A new drive for the seacoast of heav-
lily reinforced German forces in Belgium
has been met by counter offensive of
also augmented armies of the allies in
the vicinity of Ypres. The Franco-Brit-
ish lines have at no point drawn back,
says the French official statement, but
instead "our troops are taking the Of
fensive and have made notable progress
in several directions"
A dispatch from Teheran says that the
Persians are much excited over the clash
between Turkey and Russia.
The Russian war office announces that
Russian troops have entered Turkish Ar
menia, defeated the Turks and occupied
four towns. The Russians claim that
Germans are falling back not only in
Russian Poland but also on the east
Prussia frontier and that Russian troops
have penetrated points on the east Prus-
sian border and that the Austrians are
being held in check.

GERMANS FALL BACK,
RUSSIANS CLAIM
On Left Wing the Movement Has Been
Precipitated, and One Company Was
Captured in Seizure of a Town.

Petrograd, Nov 5.--The following Of
fetal communication from the Russian
general staff headquarters was given out
last night:
"a sudden change has been noted since
Nov. 3 on the East Prussian front, where
the enemy, which recently had been on
the defensive almost everywhere, has be-
gun to fall back at certain points. This
retreat is precipitated on the left wing
of the enemy, which was vigorously
thrown back toward Biaa and Lyok.
Our troops took Bakalarjevo, capturing
large quantity of ammunition and
making prisoners of a German company.
"On the left bank of the Vistula the
Germans continue the precipitate re-
treat towards the frontier. Their rear
guards have been dislodged from Kolo
and Pr2edborZ. On the morning of Nov.
3 we drove back the Austrians beyond
kielce, which place our troops occupied,
making 600 prisoners and taking ma
chine guns. On the same day we won
n decisive victory over the Austrians
along with the whole front from kielce
to Sandomir. The enemy fell back with
al speed Our troops took Sandomir,
which is an important strategical point"
"In one region south of kielce during
5he past week we have made prisoners of
200 officers and 1890 soldiers and have
aiken large number of cannon as well
Is machine guns. During the night OF
Nov. 3 the Austrians made a series OF
ittacks which were fiery but futile, and
hey retreated. Our troops took firm
ooting in the region of Nisko and Rud-
lik
The Turkish fleet is concentrated in
he Black sea with base in the Bos-
'horus. Apparently they are trying to
void a fight with our forces"

ONE AUTO BADLY DAMAGED
As Result of Collision OF Motor Cars a
Dodge Crossing.

One of the most disastrous automobile
collisions TO occur In the waning 1914
motoring season had for its stage setting
dangerous railroad crossing at Dodge's
bridge on the Montpelier road last even
ing at $3.50 o'clock. Two ears, one a
Studebaker driven by Quincy II. Perry
and the other a Ford, owned and operat'
ed by Nj. A. Bogues of Northiield, are in
the Perry garage on Washington street,
and unless the unexpected happens they
will not be used much for touring pur-
poses until 1918. Neither Mr.. Perry nor
the man from Northfcld was injured.
The accident was witnessed by G. l.,
Woodworth who was bowling along
pretty close TO Mr.. Perry's heels when
the crash came.
The front part of the Ford car looks
as though it had been telescoped by the
other automobile. So little remained Of
the hood that garage men who lugged
the auto to Barre this morning ripped off
the remnant and cast il into the brook.
The crank shaft appears to have been
ruined beyc ID repair and the engine
seems to been subjected to a good
deal of sage. Gone with the hood
is the. sd some of the Fords mud
guar .>Ss running board were miss
inr' >s1age to the Studebaker car was
y serious nor yet expensive. One
~ front wheels was disabled and the
y rds were jammed all out of shape,
Sat with the aid of spare wheel the
larger car was able to limp home last
night.
Stories of the collision seem to agree
in the essential features. Mr.. Perry
and his Studebaker were coming from
Montpelier and the Northield car was
proceeding toward the capital. Mr. Perry
tells of seeing the Ford auto approach
and OF being able to swerve to his own
side Of the road before the car had
reached the crossing. According to Mr..
Perry. when it became apparent that he
could not stay in the road without col
lision, he wasted no time in driving his
EAR onto the c. " tracks at the crossing. |
Even this move did not avert an acci
dent and in the next instant the cars
came together with a crash. Both driv-
ers remained at their wheels and Mr. |
who was not far in the rear, |
brought his own car to a sudden halt.
The accident happened at point
where motor mishaps have occurred be-
'ore. Just now the danger of collision
; more remote than in the summer,
when the foliage obscures from view the
approach of autos. But near enough at
land to cause confusion sometimes is a
ow covered bridge. Not far away are
he crossings of the traction road and
he NJ. & w. r. line and their location
nly serves to complicate matters. Lo-
al motorists say that last nights col
ision. fortunate as it was. in that in no
ne was injured, is another argument for
grade crossing near the bridge.

DOUBLE MURDER
IN SMALL TOWN
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry +. Virgins OF
Andover We're Slain and Search Has
Been Instituted for a Son-in-
law, George Warner.

Andoyer, Nov. 5,--The frantic ringing
OF telephone on the farmers line which
runs through the little hamlet OF
Simonsville in this town aroused the
curiosity of subscribers on the line with
the result that double murder was
brought TO light when the bodies of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry F. Virgins were found
in the barn and woodshed adjoining their
home early last evening
The only motive ascribed for the
deed is possibly that of revenge and the
only person suspected is George Warner,
son-in.law of the murdered farmer and
his wife. Warner has disappeared
The wife OF Warner, a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Virgins, has recently begun
an action for divorce on the grounds of
abuse. 1t is claimed that sometime yes
terday morning Warner called upon his
wife, who is the postmistress at Smons-
vile, and abused her by pounding the
woman.
Mrs. Warner, it is said, notified her
father of the abuse of her husband, and
Mr.. Wiggins, who lived about three
quarters of mile from Simonsville,
went to talk the matter over with his
daughter. He left Simonsvile about
o'clock yesterday afternoon for his home
and about o o'clock last evening another
son-in-law OF the dead couple, Ramsdell
Amsden, heard the telephone ringing the
call of the Wiggins home As no reply
was made to the call he listened and be-
came suspicious that something was |
wrong.
He went to the house of his father in |
law but could find no signs of the family |
Becoming alarmed he notified neighbors |
and after a search of an hour the body |
Of Mrs. Virgins was found secreted in |
the woodshed, The woman had been
dead, evidently, some time. She had /
been shot twice through the heart. The
body of her husband was found about
three hours later hidden under straw in
/ stall in the barn.
Suspicion Immediately pointed to
Warner and search was instituted
claim that they heard
hots about 6 o'clock and some believe
hat Warner has killed himself
II is believed that one OF the couple
elephoned for aid after the other had
,een shot or that the murderer called
n the telephone TO appraise the neigh
'ors OF the deed When Mr. Amsden en-
cred the house he found that window
ad been broken BY two bullets, evident
! fired from outside the house.
The assumption il that Warner knew
f his father lin laws visit to Mrs. War
er and that the man became enraged,
ossibly from the use of liquor, and com
lifted the deed.
