RUSSIA IS
 CONFIDENT
 0F SUCCESS

THE HAGUE, Nov. 19. = 4 Russian staff officer passing through here yesterday, had the following to say of the chances of German success in the Poland campaigns
 seThe Russian army in Poland maintains three times as many cavalrymen as the Germans. This cavalry swarmed after the Germans during the first retreat from Warsaw. Suddenly the Ger man retreat stopped. The re- suit was that the Russian cavai- ry was dashed to pieces like mi grating birds flying against a rock.
 Meanwhile the main body of Russians, numbering l,6OO,OOl men, whose absolute purpose is to decisiyely beat the Austrian troops, is proceeding unmolested to attack CracOw, leaving a smaller detachment to continue the siege of Przemysl.
 If Russian arms are victor iOus in their war against Aus. tria, the Russians do not intend to cross the Carpathians, but following the order of the river will make their main attack on Germany by way of 0ppelin BpsIau and Glogau.
 Ye do not fear the German offensive. We will crush Aus tria, and our victorious troops will then oyerwhelm the German arms"

LONDON, Nov. 19. .- Earlier than had been anticipated, the l. German assault on the Russian army in Poland has fallen like gigantic sIedge hammer.
 10000 RUSSIANS DIE.
 In an attack today on the cen ter of the line, tke Germans killed 10000 Russians. PetrO- grad admits fearful loss, but places the figures at 10000. Mea- gre news makes it impossible to determine the full extent of the German victory.
 Gen. von Hindenburg already has been voted the highest hon. ors in Berlin, a dispatch says.
 ENGLAND IS ALARMED.
 The new attack on the Russian army today stood out prominent ly as Of chief importance in the war of the ages and all England read with horror the news that the German army, last reported 70 be in disorderly retreat, had turned on it's common enemy and deliver a crushing blow. The srddenness of the victory lent a new aspect to the campaign, which, for Germany is no less important than the campaign in France and Belgium.

II MAN WITH

OF the six passengers who alighted
from the s%tagecoach at the Acorn inn,
in Blissfeld. one April evening, one
was a man with a wooden leg. The
stranger registered as John Gordon Of
Chicago, and. when he gave out that
he might remain in Blissfeld for sew
eral weeks. everybody wondered what
business could have brought him there.
After three or four days it leaked out
that the man was a government agent,
who had come to watch the men who
had been stealing timber of certain
lands. That gave him increased re-
spect, and yet " l. a s~choolboy, no.
ticing the mans steel gray eyes. frm

that he was cruel. II not bad hearted.

talking, but struck no clew. and In his
desperation he asked Gordon to assist
him. believing no doubt that q govern

more OF less posted in detective work.
Gordon seemed to think the matter
over for awhile and then replied:
