Not Armistice, but Truce.

Secretary Bryan promptly corrected
those who referred to-day TO the agree
ment between the United states and
Huerta 10 suspend hostilities as an
"armistice" The Secretary explained
that IL could not properly be termed
an arrnistice, but was. rather. "a truce.
or Just an agreement"
II is remarked that Huerta. in ex-
pediting the departure Of Americans
from Mexico City, In protecting them
and their property, In Immediately ef-
fecting the release Of Or. Ryan, and In
other respects has shown a nice op-
servance Of the rules Of civilized war

SAID I D HER
Special by United Press Wire.

Mineola, L. l., Oct. 21:-'I shot
him"
Around these three words uttered,
according to Miss Celia Coleman,
negro maid, by Mrs. Florence Car
man on the night Mrs. Louise Bailey
was shot to death In DR.. Carman' 5
office, hinges the whole case of the
state against the doctors wife now
on trial for her life. The Coleman
woman took the stand today and
swore that Mrs. Carman made that
statement when she entered the
kitchen with revolver in her hand,
the maid swore, after the fatal shot
was fired 1t was apparent the state S
contention is that the wife shot at
her husband While Mrs. Carman
sat rigid few feet away, the maid
told how the doctors wife, after
entering the kitchen, walked into the
Office where the dead woman was
lying on the floor Mrs. Carman
still held the revolver in her hand:
she had 1t concealed under white
shawl. She wore a kimona, accord
ing to the maid
Mrs. Carman looked at DR.. Car
man nearly over the body of the
slain woman, the girl said The wife,
still grasping the revolver, stayed in
the room but minute, according to
the witness, going out by the waiting
room. Mrs. Carman did not say
anything more to her when she went
to the kitchen.
Asked by District Attorney Smith
whether she thought Mrs Carman
had killed her husband when she
said Il shot him." the maid said she
didn't know who she had shot. She
said neither DR.. Carman nor Mrs
Carman said a word while she was
in the office where the dead woman
was lying. Attorney Graham scored
a big surprise On the state when he
introduced a statement made by the
Coleman girl in a private investiga-
tion on July 13 In which she contra
dicted nearly everything she testified
to today. Attorney Graham read this
statement just before adjournment
for lunch.

did not seem worried by the testi-

Looked After Odd $500.

New Brunswick, Oct. 21:-
Through the alertness of Mayor Aus
tin Scott, who, by the way, is for
mer president of Rutgers College
and at present a professor in that in
stitution, the city has been relieved
from a likely embarrassing position.
His pen has vetoed many an ordi-
nance since last January, but he read
one the other day which did not re-
quire such urgent methods. 1t pro-
vided for the sale Of $12.500 on
bonds, but no mention was made of
the odd $500. Provision was made
for twelve bonds of $1,000 each.
When Mayor Scott took the matter
up whit the Board Of Aldermen they
gratefully reconsidered the ordinance
and have taken steps to place cor
reeted one before the mayor.

COOPERATIVE
|. SALE BENEFITS
PERTH AMb0YANS

The question has been raised by
few residents of Perth Amboy as
to whether or not the special bar
gains to be offered by the merchants
during the Cooperative Fare-Re-
funding Sale are to be exclusively
for out of town people. In order to
prevent a wrong impression regard
ing this feature the NEWS wishes
to say that the bargains offered by
the Perth Amboy merchants during
this big trade event will be for ev-
erybody, including our own people
as we'll as those residing in the rural
districts and neighboring towns.
While the sale was inaugurated on
the theory of making attractive in
ducements for out OF town people to
come here to trade, by offering them
special bargains for a week and the
payment of their car fare, yet 1t is
not the purpose to discriminate
against the citizens of Perth Amboy.
So. let us repeat, the bargains to be
found in Perth Amboy stores next
week will be for everybody.
The news of this great co-opera-
tive, fare-refunding sale has been
dius of which Perth Amboy is trade
center. The NEWS on Friday will
carry large display advertisements
from about fifty live-wire merchants
who have entered heart and soul in
this big trades week movement.
The seven days of special trad
ing. beginning tomorrow and contin-
uing until Saturday, October 81,
promises to be the biggest event of
its kind in the history of Perth Am
boy.
There will be seven days of spe-
cial trading and every day Will see
the purchasing value or a dollar
stretched in many instances almost
double, but the man or woman who
has an eye for bargains should be
in Perth Amboy and participate in
these bargain-giving opportunities as
early during the sale as possible.
Perth Amboy with an already mag
nificent reputation as a trading cen
ter, bids fair to eclipse any previous
attempt in this seven days of special
trading.

GERMANS HOLD LILLE
WHILE BATTLE STILL
RACES ALONG MEUSE
GERMANS GAIN
NEAR DUNK|Rk,
BERLIN CLAIMS
Special bU United Press Wire.

Spectdf on OHtted FfeSS WWe.
Berlin, via The Hague, Oct. 21.-
The war Office today announces that
while secere fighting is in progress
along the Ypres river, there has as
yet been no decisive result. IT is
stated that the Germans are gain
ing ground in the general direction
of Dunkirk. The German right wing
is slowly advancing from Lille and
although the allies are maintaining
stubborn defense they are being
pushed backward. The fighting is
said to be general all along the right
wing, but there is no indications that
the battle is entering decisive
stage. The assault on Verdun con-
tinues with the German artillery re-
ducing the outer line of forts. Ad-
ditional artillery is being sent to
the front and when it arrives it is
expected the position will be taken.
All along the height of the Zeuse the
fighting contiues without any deci-
sive change at any point.
In the eastern theatre of war 1t
is stated the Russian cavalry failed
in an attempt to raid the German
line to the southwest of Warsaw,
A combined Austro-German cav
airy force which had been apprised
of the movements of the Russians by
an aviator trapped the Russians in 6
wooded section and defeated then
with heavy losses. Because of the
nature of the ground through which
the Germans are advancing and the
necessity of carrying with the army
supplies of every source, including
even the forage for horses, progress
Is very slow Reports received from
Vienna say the Austrians are driv-
ing the Russians back at several
points. Along the southern line of
the San river the Austrians have
carried Russian entrenchments by
bayonet charges and they are maxi
ing progress towards Przemysl,
which is maintaining stubborn re-
sistance against the Russian invest
ing force. The Russians have at
tempted a night attack against Aus
trians operating from the Amswich
valley, but were repulsed and many
prisoners including officers Of high
rank, several machine guns and one
battle standard were taken.

JAIL MRS, LANE;
ASKS OP P|N|ON Of
WOMEN IN COURT
Speofa, to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
New Brunswick, Oct. 21:--Annie
Lane, of Perth Amboy, indicted for
enticing a girl Of tender age to a
house of alleged i'll repute, was today
sentenced by Judge Daily in the court
of common pleas to serve three
months in the county jail. She has
already served similar period while
awaiting trial. Leo Coakley appear
ed in behalf of George l.. Burton
who 1t was stated was out of the city
Judge DAILY stated that Mr.. Burton
knew the case was coming up and
would have to pass sentence.
Judge DAILY stated in passing
sentence that the woman's case had
given him much thought. He held
that she was not guilty of white
slavery, though the charge had been
concerned In the case; the woman
was guilty of retaining young girl
against her will. The court de-
clared 1t believed that Mrs. Lane had
no evil divine when she invited Isa-
bella Hatch, of Elizabeth, the COM
planning witness, and three other
young people to her home and simply
ulQ SO SoCQ ndtuTeuly out Ol HOSpl-
tality and to get them out Of the
rain. The judge held, however, that
the woman was responsible for the
people while they were in her house
and should not have allowed the
Hatch girl in room with Robert
McAdams. Miss Hatch, the court
stated, was a good girl, while Viola
VanPelt, the other girl concerned,
was bad.
Opinions concerning the woman's
case were secured by the court from
women. Mrs. w. w. Knox was one
of the women who reported to the
court concerning 1t and stated that
Mrs. Lane probably did not think she
was doing anything wrong when she
asked the young people to come to
her house.
In consideration of these facts and
that the woman had already spent
three months in Jail, Judge DAILY or
dered her held for a similar term.
The indictment against her for run
ming a disorderly house was nolle
pressed upon motion by Prosecutor
Florance.
