THE WAR SITuA1|NO TODAY

Apart from the announcement that
the German forces have fallen back
before the offensive tactics of the al
on the line from Nanteuil-le-Har-
douin to Verdun, the most interesting
report is contained in a dispatch to
the London Evening News from Bou-
logne, in which the French
err. General Pau, is given as authority
for the statement that the allies nave
won a victory at Precy-Sur-Oise, In
which the Imperial guard, under the
Grown Prince of Germany, is alleged
to have been annihilated by a British
force.
The British official bureau says that
the plans of the French commander in
chief, General Joffre, are being car
ried out steadily and that the allies
have succeeded in forcing back in a
northeastern direction the German
forces opposed to them.
Paris officially reports that the al
lies have advanced their left wing
without energetic opposition by the
Germans, and that several engage
ments on the Ourcq river have favor
ed the French-British.
The casualty list as a result of the
blowing up of the British cruiser
Pathfinder by a mine in the North Sea
COMPRISES four men killed, thirteen
wounded and 242 missing.
The Russian army operating in Ga
licia is reported still to be driving bach

THINGS ARE EVEN
BY H. M. Cochran.
You've heard men say that women
folks ..
Should keep themselves at home.
They're meant to get the suppers,
They have no right to roam"
The men will push the baking
And the cooking on their wives,
And some would even have them
spend,
At home, their whole long lives.
Of course, exaggeration has
Crept into this bit.
But how some men feel czarlike
Is the point I'm trying to hit.
They'll claim they do the hardest
work,
While wife cleans pans and lids.
Perhaps the man is dining out, g.,
While wife tends the kids.
The whole thing in a nutshell, then,
And this is true enough,
Is that the women do their share
To keep things up to snuff.
For work is work-it's sometimes
hard,
But home, sweet home, is play.
What would men do without it
When they're finished for the day?
A scientist says he has discovered
that man stung by bee will never
again look a glass of booze in the
face. There's tip for the prohibi-
tionists. ......- is.

KOEHLER COURT SAID
TO Be EVENLY DIVIDED
Rulings Indicate Five for the
Accused, Five Against Him.
One in Doubt.

New LONDON, Conn, March s-Miss
Sophia NJ. Koehler. sister of Major Rem
1am!n N. Koeh!er. Is expected TO take the
stand tomorrow In her brothers defence
at the court-martial. She was the head
OF the social Nfe at Fort Terry for the
two and a half years that Major Koehler
was In command. She is a slender little
woman OF quiet manner and much per-
sonal charm. II Is said.
Her story on the stand. II is understood,
will go back to a new source OF difficult
ties AT the fort that eliminated In bitter
feeling among the officers and the grave
accusations against the commander She
may also be able TO streng hen her
brothers alibls.
Judging by the rulings OF the court
II IL reported that five OF the eleven mem
bers seem to think the case against
Major Koehler inconcluslve. Ave consider
II sufficiently strong TO sustain some OF
the charges and one appears TO be In
doubt The verdict. whatever II be. will
be by only a slight majority. II Is pre-
dicted.
The evidence OF several witnesses for
tho prosecution has been rejected in favor
OF other evidence for Major Koehler and
this has greatly weakened the case
against him. For instance, the witness
for the prosecution whose testimony II
accepted would have been most damaging
was addressed by Col. Kirby as soon as
he had finished on the stand The dia-
logue ran like this:
What Is your reputation for vcracity~'
II think II IL good" replied the witness.
AS n matter of fact didn't YOU swear
when you enlisted In the army that you
we're s!ngler'
YES"
And weren't you at that time mar
riedT'

you may Judge how much weight your
evidence will have with this court" re-
marked the president. THAT will do"

Ing that this ex-serseant met the two

MAYORS POLICE BILL CHANGES.
He Announces Amendments 70 AM
pity Trial Privileges.

Mayor Mitchers proposed amendments
TO his police bills were made public yes
terday In q letter that he addressed TO
Senator Thomas II. Cullen. chairman OF
the Senate Cities Committee. In explain
ing his reasons for the adoption OF the
amendments and the enactment OF the
bills. Mr.. Mltche, reiterated his belief that
Col George w. Cocktails will become
Police Commissioner providing the bills
become laws. RE said the Colonel VIII
stick by his letter TO the utmost detail.
Mr.. Mitchell feels that the amendments
will give the policemen a fair opportunity
to defend themselves when on trial. He
wishes 20 provide for public hearing
wherein a policeman may cross-examine
his accuser and provide also for a board
OF review that will have the right to
grant a dismissed policeman's appeal for
a new trial.
The amendment provides that this
board Of review shall consist OF one MEM
Der appointed BY the Municipal Civil Ser
vice Commission. another designated from
the uniformed police force by the Board of
Estimate. and a third TO be appointed by
the Mayor. Members OF the board may be
removed by the power that appoints them
They are to have power to take testimony
must state their conclusions and the
reasons therefor In writing and their re-
ports are to be public documents.
The other amendment gives the accused
policeman an opportunity to call witnesses
In his behalf and to cross-examine his
accuser
Mayor Mitchell says these amendments
will check any indiscretion on the part
OF the Police Commissioner or Mayor. and
will give greater protection to honest men
on the force. Under present conditions
new matter is excluded from a police
mans application for court review II the
Police Commit ssiorer denies Il. The Mayor
quotes Chief Magistrate McAdoo. Gen.
Bingham and former Mayor Mcclellan

existent provisions for court review are

ton OF thesPolice Department
