Pensacola has won it's suit in the
supreme court of Florida wherein the
city had sued the United States FL
deIity and Guaranty of Baltimore for
payment of the city deposit in the de-
funct Pensacola State Bank, the bond
company having been surety for the
bank when the city funds were depos-
tied there.
The amount involved in this case,
for which judgment was affirmed by
the supreme court was $4S.36f'
A similar suit is pending against
the Maryland Casualty Company for
$4,000 and as the cases are practi-
cally identical, City Attorney Jno. b.
Jones is sanguine that a decision IA
vorabIe to the city will also be handed
down in this latter case.
When the State Bank failed, the city
had a large amount of money depos-
tied there, but the bond companies
which had stood security for the de-
posifs refused to make the amounts
good on the ground that the bonds had
expired and had not been renewed
The city brought suit in the circuit
court against each company and the
suits were decided in favor OF the
city. The companies then appealed the
cases to the supreme court.
The decision of the supreme court
in this case afirms the judgment Sc
cured against the bonding company IN
the circuit court of this county on
the gath of last December. Both the
limited States Fidelity & Guaranty
Company and the Maryland Casualty
Company appealed the cases to the
supreme court. The decision in the
case of the Maryland Casualty Com
handed down
bv the supreme court on account OF
the delay Of attorneys for the bonding
company to file briefs. AS practically
the same questions are involved In
this case as in the case OF the United
states Fidelity & Guaranty Company
City Attorney Jones and w. A Bloult
have no doubt that they Will also WIN
This case. The amount of the judg-
ment secured against the United
States Fidelity & Guaranty Company
is s4e. .367. while the claim against the
Maryland Casualty Company is $15,OoV.
II is expected that the supreme court
will pass on the Maryland Casualty
Company case within the next TWO
weeks.
In the letter which Mr. Jones re-
ceived from Clerk Mabry 1t was stated
that the opinion in the case was writ
ten by Justice J. B. Whitfield. CITY
Attorney Jones and w. A. Blount de-
livered oral arguments in the case be-
fore the supreme court last Tuesday.
Will H. Watson and Sam Pasco, Jr.'
appeared before the court for the
bonding company.
In speaking of the matter last night'
Mayor Greenhut said that this money
was practically all bond money ana
that it would come in very handy as
the city has bonds to the amount OF
$500 that must be paid by Janu-
airy 1.

Man andDaughter
Killed and Bodies
Burned at Miami:
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Miami, Nov. 25.-Two persons were
killed with a make in a costly resi-
dence near here early today and the
house was then destroyed by fire with
the evident intention of concealing the
crime. The dead are Adam A. Boggs,
aged forty-five, and Marjorie. his
daughter, aged eighteen. Bog&s was
a prominent Florida lawyer.
Neighbors found the bodies In a
search of the ruins of the residence,
the skulls of both having been crushed.
The bodies were SO badly charred that
they were hard to recognize. The mo-
tive for the crime is believed to have
been robbery, as Bogg's empty purse
was found in the yard. 1t is thought
the killings resulted when he and his
daughter discovered burglars in the
house A bIoodstained axe used in
the crime was found late today hidden
under the shrubbery near the site OF
the residence.

the substance of a warning letter
planned to be sent today over the
country by the Travellers Aid Depart
ment of the Chicago Young Women's
Christian Association.
Difficulty of obtaining employment
has augmented the dangers to which
young women, strangers in the city,
are exposed.
There never was time in the his
tory of Chicago" said Mrs. Wilhel-
nina Barr, secretary of the Travel
ers Aid, when it was so difficult to
obtain employment for strange girls.

the dangers to which they are ex-
posed"

ton issued by the German general
STAFF today the Germans claim to have

The text of the statement follows:
Yesterday the enemy's ships did
not repeat their expedition against the

The situation In the western war
theatre remains unchanged. We made
some slight progress at Arras.
''In East Prussia our troops repulsed

T,ondon. Nov. 25.-While Russian
army headquarters remain silent and
rbe Germans claim they have checked
fine Russian offensive, the military
,,artv at Petrograd has shown full con-
8dence in the unofficial reports of
Russian victory in Northern Poland
by celebrating the event.
It is even said in the Russian CAPT
fal that the victory is greater than was
previously reported. Rumors are that
the entire German army corps has
been broken up, and information there
$ that trains have been ordered which
will accommodate fifty thousand pris-
saers ana wounded.
Heretofore Grand Duke Nicholas, the
Russian commander, has withheld re-
ports until the work set about was
completely finished. AS a result 1t may
be some days before the official state
ment Is made.
The Germans also claim they have
stopped the Russian advance in East
Prussia and before Cracow, Galicia-
The Russians made no statement In
gard to the latter claims.
Probably the most significant news
regarding the Russian operations
comes from Budapest. 1t is admitted
that the Russians have again invaded
Hungary, and have reached the Ung
country, which is thirty-f1ve miles
south of the Carpathians, and the
Zemplin country which is fifty miles
south. Budapest asserts that the Ung
invaders are being driven back.
In the western arena, the Germans
attacked the allies north Of Verdun
and were repulsed. The Germans
asked an armistice, but this was re-
fused. The fighting In the other sec
tons Of the west is confined largely
to an artillery exchange.
There is further evidence, however
that the Germans are planning to
make another desperate attempt to
reach the coast ports. Every report
from Belgium shows that the Ger
mans are bringing up reinforcements
and guns.
There Is considerable diplomatic ac-
tivity In the Balkans and important
DEVELOPMENTS are expected soon. 1t is
regarded in official circles here that
with the Austrian army on SerNian
soil. Servia more than likely will listen
to BuIgaria's demand for part OF
Macedonia as the price Of support.
There Is also talk of an arrange
ment between Rumania and Bulgaria
which win finally bring all the Balkan
states on the side of the allies.
