that the TeutOns have accomplished in
their eastern campaign, according to a
statement of the situation outlined in
the house of lords yesterday by Lord
Kitchner, the secretary of state for
war.
Since the first of June, said the war
lord in his address to the members Of
the hereditary chamber, the Germans

resources to an attempt to crush the
Russians and in the augmenting of
their supply of artillery and shells The
plan to crush the Russians has failed
almost completely.
Russians Still Indicated
The Russian army, said, Lord Kitch'
ener, is still undefeated and is still pow
erful for future pffensives. The Ger
mans have occupied much territory in
their eastern drives, but it is only the
gain of barren land and evacuated
forts. In no particular have the ex-

FIVE miles a day, now they are barely

are defined by the election laws OF
the State and the laws against brib-

to Sheriff George V. Coffin tonight.

member Of the Board of Public Safe
ty, however. were among the first to
acknowledge service in the case and
give surety. The bonds of those
who surrendered today ranged from
$4,000 to 10000
The indictments created sensa-
ton. While 1t had been rumored for
some time that number of men
were to be indicted as a result of an
investigation of the last election, it
was not thought men so high in -
litical councils would be included.
More than dozen members of
Mayor Bells official family were in
dicted and as many more members of
the police force were named. The
others indicted included election of
ficials. ward and precinct leaders,
workers at the polls, and voters.
These included members of the Dem
ocratic Republican, and Progressive
parties.
No date or the arraignment has
been announced, and Judge James A.
Collins of the Criminal Court said
late today that it would not be set
until next week
Mr.. Taggart and Mayor Bell tonight
proclaimed their innocence, and as
serted they had committed no crimes
for which they should be indicted.

SHORT TROUT EXPENSIVE
Nearly $1,000 Collected in Fines This
Year.

Lyndonville, June 22.-If short
trout, fishermen continue their actiyi
ties for the remainder of the open
season with the same diligence they
have thus far displayed this season
the state of Vermont will be able to
go into the money loaning business
The total fines imposed upon fisher
men the past week will approximate
$1,000 and there are yet several cases
to be disposed of.
Fish and Game Commissioner John
G. Titcomb says that his deputies are
determined to reduce the mortality
among short trout and that every fish
erman caught with illegal-sized fish
in his creel must pay the penalty.
The commissioner said that one of
the strongest features of the new fish
ing law is the penalty for whipping a
stream witho-. license. Another
deterrent is the revocation o. fish
erman's license, Both of these sec
tons of the law make ordinary fish
ermen chary about taking chances.
The commissioner has had experts
sent to Windham county where in
vestigation will be made of sites suit
able for propagating stations. When
these men report to Commissioner
Titcomb he will make tour of the
territory and select site or sites.
Commissioner Titcomb says that
persons desiring fish for stocking
streams another season should make
application at once in order to have
their requests granted next year.
The fish and game department is
sending to town clerks the new
licenses. With the licenses viii ne
sent pamphlet of the fish and game
laws of which 100000 have been print
ed. In addition to this literature
the commissioner is sending out cloth
and paper placards bearing copies of
the law for posting.

INVISIBLE ICEBERGs.
Conditions Under Which They Cannot
Be Seen on Clear Nights.


In recent communication to the
New York Tribune Abbott Ii Thayer,
the artist, asserts that many vessels
have been lost by collisions with ice
bergs because under certain conditions
of sky and light they are invisible. Lie
cites the fact that on the occasion Of
the Titanic disaster, although the black
ship was clearly visible to survivors at
distance Of several miles, they could
not see the white bergs against which
they actually heard the wash of the
sea.
Mr. Thayer claims that on clear,
starry night the bergs are so nearly
the same color as the sky that they are
totally invisible and that the same Is
the case under many conditions OF
cloudiness, the only exception being
when the side of the berg viewed is i'll
such shadow that it shows black
against the sky. In other words, 1t Is
impossible to see white against white.
In answer to the criticism of those
who say they never saw berg mt
night that was the color of the sky
the answer is that this is very natural.
because this is the very condition UNI
der which the berg is invisible. Mr..
Thayer makes the suggestion that Il
very simple way to avoiG the danger
of colliding with an invisible berg
would be to use searchlight. The re-
Election would show up the berg very
plainly.
