In 1913, $4,000 We're spent for Nor

Landing bridge. More than $I7, 900
will be spent on Penns Neck bridge.
With all repairs to bridges excepting
what is absol utely necessary deferred
until 1915, and with the increaied in

thought that a new steel bridge could
be erected, ove Penns Neck canal and
the road from Elmer to Pole Tavern
built also.
Over $4,000 was received from the
State toward road construction aud
repairs in 1913. Because the State road
department is very anxious to build the
Penns Grove-Malaga road, and In view
of the fact that they have undertaken
to build the road from Elmer to Mala-
ga, with conyicts, at very little expense

Mayor Riddle, the ardent advocate
Of an open Sunday declares that the
prohibition Of the sale OF Sunday of
liquors cost Atlantic City $500, 900.
II the hotels failed to get that amount,
it must be in the pockets of those who
did not spend it. The immense throng

evidently deferred form going there
because they could not get liquors to

FURIOUS FIGHTING
WILL CAUSE CRISIS
GERMANS AND ALLIES RUSH
TOGETHER IN GREAT BATTLE
OF AISNE.
MAY BRING DECISIVE RESULT
Allies Attempt to Turn German Right
and Enemy Hurts Massed Forces
Against French.

London-Almost simultaneously the
two great hammer strokes in the bat
tie in Northern France have fallen
and some decisive result must be an
nounced before long. The Allies have
struck the German right wing and
the Germans haye hurled themselves
against the French line between Yer
dun and Toul.
The commencement of these two at
,tacks in earnest was disclosed by the
French official statement issued, but
little is told of how they are progress
sing. The motion against the Ger
man right Is described as a violent
general on, in which the French LETT
encountered an army corps the Ger
mans brought from the center OF
Lorraine and the Vosages.
The clash occurred in the district
between Tergnier and st. Quentin,
so that the French have made a con-
siderable advance to he Northwest
since the last mention was made OF
this part Of their army. The French
report admits that the Germans gain
ed a footing on the Mouse heights
and have pushed forward in the d.
rection of st. Mihiel, bombarding the
forts Of Paroches and the Roman
camp. :,
The communication, however, adds
that on the other hand to the south
of Verdun the French remain masters
of the heights of the Meuse and that
their troops, debouching from Toul,
have advanced In the region OF Beat
mont.
In the center, east of Rheims, the
French have made some progress but
elsewhere, nothing of Importance has
happened as shown In the official re-
ports and no other information Is
available as the strictest censorship
has been established. .
Some confirmation comes Of the re-
port that the Germans have suffered
a reverse on the East Prussian front
Ter. Several trainloads Of wounded,
including German prisoners, have ar
rived at Pskov, according to a Petro-
grad dispatch, having been engaged
in severe fighting on the borders OF
Sukalki, where they a the Germans
suffered heavy losses. In Galicia,
the Russians have annexed a few
more towns and r %perfecting their
plan for an attack on Przemysl, an
advance against General Dankl, and
eventually the fortress Of Cracow.
While the Servians and Montene-
grins are closing in on the Bosnian
city Of S%arajevo, the Austrians have
retaliated by resuming the lombard
ment of Belgrade, which during the
early weeks of the war was under con-
slant fire. They also have attempted
to cross the Danube, but according to
Servian reports have failed.

War Risk Insurance

Washington.-War risk insurance on
American vessels and cargoes carried
in American vessels now may be ar
ranged for through any collector of
customs in the United States, under
a decision announced by the treasury
department. This action obviates the
necessity Of establishing branches of
the new bureau at seaports. Applica.
tons may be received by any collector
or deputy, but in no instance will the
government issue war risk insurance
except where the applicant has ordi-
nary marine insurance.
