Kaiser's Army Progresses
North of Dixmude and
Around Labosse, French
War Statement Admits.
ATTACK BY NIGHT
Paris Claims Advance in
WOevre Region and the
Checking of Day and
Night Assaults.
IeY LEASED WIRE.1

PARIS, Oct. 24-Admission that the
German troops in Belgium are making
progress north of Dixmude and around
Labassee in France is made in the Of
ficial French statement issued here
this afternoon, but says that the allies
have made progress about Langmarck
(southeast of Dixmude) and between
ArmintereS and Lille.
The official news as to the French
success of kieuport indicates that the
allies have succeeded thus far in
checking the Germans in their ad-
vance down the coast from Ostend.
At numerous other points on tho
long battle front, the Germans have
made night and day attacks but they
have been repulsed, the statement
says. The official communiQue fol-
lows in full:
"On our left wing the battle contin-
ues. The enemy has progressed north
Of Dixmude and around Labassee. We
have advanced very appreciably to the
east Of Nieuport, in the region of
Langemark and in the region between
Armentieres and Lille. These are
fluctuations inevitable on the line of
battle.
"On the rest of the front numerous
German attacks, both by night and by
day, have been repulsed. At many
points we have advanced slightly. In
the Woevre region our advance has
continued in the direction of Boise De
Mortmare, south of Thiaucourt, in the
Bois LIE Pretre and north of Pont-A-
MOusson."

MUT|NY BREAKS OUT
ON RED CROSS SHIP
SAILING FOR EUROPE
TBY LEASED WlRE.1

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Finishing
what was intended to be mission of
peace, the American relief ship Red
Cross arrived here today from Europe
with a lurid account of riots, mutiny
and attempted murder. The Red Cross
started from New York on September
13, bearing doctors, nurses and medi-
cal supplies for the European war
zone Upon her arrival here today,
she bore 159 passengers and young
Dutch woman who had secretly board
ed the ship as a stoway just before it
left Rotterdam.
Just after leaving this port on her
trip eastward a fight broke out be-
tween the white and negro factions Of
the crew On the second day out it
was found that the German members
of tho crew, who had been discharged
before the ship left this port, had
wrecked the sanitary arrangements,
the refrigerating plant and had plugg
ed up the bilge pipes.
On September 25, twenty-five negro
seamen mutinied. On October 4th,
j. Torrez, mess boy ran amuck with
long knife and tried to kill every one
in sight. The same day J. Larkin, an
oiler, assaulted the chef with mon
keywrench. inflicting painful, but not
serious wounds.
On October II, Emil Kovarik, chief
master at arms, was assaulted by two
sailors. r. Coffey and Z. Jackson. who
tried to strangle him. 1t took more
than an hour to subdue them.
The Red Cross was held up num-
ber of times on her way from Rotter
dam by British and French warships.

Browns Friends Opposed
Confinement in Jail Until

Grand Jury Session.

A grand jury will meet Monday
morning to investigate the Morris

This announcement was made today
after conference between Judge Fox

Keller informed the judge that there
need be no delay as the evidence in
the case is ready to be presented to
the jury.

Pike and Albert B. Steen, Wayne town.
ship.
Delay Causes Criticism.
The prior announcement that the
grand jury would not meet until after
the election is said to have caused
considerable criticism. At the time the
tentative date was set, there was some
doubt as to whether the evidence
would be ready for presentation to the
investigating body sooner.
Unlike many other murder cases, the
killing of Morris Walker will present
an open story. This story and the
conditions which entered into the
shooting up to the time Joseph Brown
killed Walker are generally we'll known
throughout the county now.
1t is said that Browns friends are
eager to testify as to his previous
character and reputation. A conver-
sation which is said to have taken
place few weeks ago is repeated by
railroaders to confirm their belief that
Brown was innocent of murderous in
tentions until he was attacked by
Walker.
Comments on Case.
IF ever found a man with my
wife, Iwould just puck up and leave
them together" Brown is reported to
have said at one time when the sub
ject arose in a group of railroaders.
Railroaders say he disagreed with
those who thought shooting should
follow such a discovery.
Brown is confident that the grand
jury will be able to draw the truth
from Mrs. Brown regarding the attack
by Walker. Mrs. Brown still sticks
to her story that she was first con-
scious of the presence of the two men
in the room when she heard the re-
volver shot.
There is some speculation as to
whether the grand jury will probe into
the alleged previous relations of Mrs.
Brown with Walker and other men. 1t
is said this question will enter into
the motive of Brown sitting in the dark
in the front room of his home, waiting
for his wife to return.
Court attaches declare that the
grand jury will complete the investiga-
tion by Tuesday night and possibly re-
turn their report by that time.

tionaI News Service.
PARIS, Oct. 24.-Emperor Williams
German troops are still on the often
sive in the northern sphere Of fighting,
with reinforcements being used as re-
serves for the first line veterans.
Reports from the north indicate that
the hardest fighting in Belgium is in
progress in the triangle roughly bound
ed by Nieuport, Dixmude and ROulers.
These French, British and Belgians
are feeling the pressure of superior
numbers, but the nature of the ground
over which the hostilities are ranging
prevents skilful maneuvers and quick
shifts of heavy bodies of troops.
On the La Bassee-Armentiers line
fighting has been of the most severe
character. The villages of Freling and
Quesnoy, northwest of Lille, have
been raked by artillery fire, and Ere
ling is reported to be in flames.
Make Night Attacks.
Fierce attacks and counter attacks
are being made along the line extend
ing from Albert to a point north of
Arras. The Germans made series of
desperate night attacks in an effort
to break through the allies line in the
direction of Doullens. 1t would seem
that the Germans have not yet given
up the hope of smashing the Anglo
French line in this region in order to
cut off the allies forces operating
north of Arras in France, and along
the User river in Belgian.
Verdun is the center of a furious
struggle on the eastern line. The
French are striving vigorously to dis
lodge the Germans at Camp des Ro-
maines on the Meuse, at which point
the invaders have succeeded in get
ting a number of heavy Austrian siege
-guas= s=iaHpo s..rr.rs--r>..~
The French movement against Metz
seems to have been checked.
There has been little change in the
relative positions of the armies which
are battling along the Meuse, notwith-
standing the violence of the assault.
The Germans have been making fierce
efforts to get Verdun, because of the
ring of forts at which point guard the
only feasible roadway over the Meuse
along which big army could move.
These assaults have been stoutly
met by the French army. which has
succeeded in getting between Metz and
the VerdunToul line.

In final effort to win votes for his
100000 traction subsidy in Wayne
township, Eugene Purtelle has extend.
ed his operati northward.
| Purtelle and his paid agent, John
Fitzgibbons have told the voters of
northern Wayne township that they
will not be left out of his traction
schemes if they will vote for his
$1O0 900 subsidy, but that he will build
Richmond Union City line through
| Whitewater.
The promoter has asked the citizens
of Franklin township for $4,000 and
the citizens of New Garden township
for $4,000 with which he tells them
he will cause to be constructed the
long-sought northern line.
Gives Same Terms.
A petition was filed late yesterday
by thirty-eight residents of New Gar.
den township, asking that an election
wants, to the traction company. The
terms are the same as in other peti-
tions, the conditions being that Pur-
telle is to give the equivalent of the
subsidy in traction company stock and
alton before the tax is placed on the
duplicate.
The Franklin township petition has
not been filed. 1t contained only
twenty-seven names yesterday. John
Fitzgibbons has the petition and is
circulating it among the residents of
the township.
The citizens of the two townships
have been given to understand that
Purtelle will build straight line to
Union City passing through White
water and that he will work in Ran
dolph county and towards Portland to
connect with a proposed traction line
In course of construction there.
Promise Many Branches.
At Whitewater, the promoters tell
the citizens, branch will go across to
Fountain City, the seat of New Gar
den township and possibly extend stil1
further across the northern part of the
county.
The commissioners will not act on
the New Garden petition Immediately,
but will delay until the Franklin town

together. 1t is too late now for either
township to vote on the subsidies at
Vic A>oNcHlUcI clcCtlOu DIS twenty
days must elapse between the time of
filing the petition and the calling of
the election.
This brings the total subsidies asked
for by Purtelle up to $357,OOO. In ad-
dition to this, he has private subsidies
which bring his gift money up to a
half million dollars if he is successful
on November g.
