To Try Murderer For
Sanity Before Trial
For Crime Is Called

Before Edward G.. Smith stands trial
for murder next week the question of
his sanity will be passed by q jury of
Dauphin county talesmen drawn for
that purpose.
District Attorney NJ. L. Stroup said
this morning that the chances are that
the question of Smiths present insan-
ity and his probable inability to appre-
ciate the meaning of a defense or to
defend himself, will be determined by
twelve good men and true.
The case has attracted widespread
attention in police and county Grim
inal circles in view of the fact that
insanity at the present time and not
insanity at the time of the commits
sion of the crime, is the defense's hope
of saving the Inglenook youth from
the electric chair. Should the jury de-
eide Smith insane, he will be confined
in an asylum for the criminal insane:
If he is shown to be sane enough to
appreciate the meaning of the proceed,
ure and to assist in his own defense
he will be placed on trial for his life
The burden is upon the defense to
prove that Smith is now insane

BIG DECREASE IN
STEELTON CRIMES
Detectives Hunt Other Work; One
Turns Carpenter; Another
Leaves the Town

Crimes of all sorts have decreased so
greatly recently in Steelton that the
borough's detectives are beginning to
seek other means of livelihood. De-
tective Joseph II. Gore has gone to
Detroit. where he will likely make his
future home.
Detective Irwin Durnbaugh, formerly
chief of police, is thinking of turning
his abilities into commercial channels
ana may become a carpenter. He has
begun to train for his new work by
doing small jobs about the offices in
the Steelton Trust building, where
Squire Gardner has his office.
To-day he built a new telephone
stand in the squire's inner office.
Durnbaugh, however, does not ad-
nit that he will give up the followins
of a sleuth altogether for his new
work.

GERMAN SUCCESS SHORT LIVED
Kaiser's Forces Did Not Realize That
They Were Near Victory
By AssosiGtsS Press

London, Nov. rs, 3:15 a. m.-The
Petrograd correspondent of the
Morning POST says that the Rus
sian success in Poland. as announced
in official dispatches. was preceded by
week of hard fighting with varied
success and reverses.
In the neighborhood of Brzeziny
the Germans m de a supreme effort
and actually succeeded in temporar-
lily breaking through the Russian
defense and getting to the rear of
the Russian positions, says the corre-
spondent. 1t appears, however, that
the Germans did not fully realize
their chances ana the Russians coun-
tered by pierc ~ the German lines
at another point, compelling the Ger
mans to withdraw with the loss Of a
whole battery Of heavy artillery and
two regiments of prisoners.
The failure of this most determined
attack which was almost a success
disheartened the Germans.
