Germans Launch Another
Drive Against Warsaw to
Divert Russians From East
Prussian Field.
5000 MEN WERE LOST
Counter Attacks by Cars
Forces Drive Teut0ns
From Positions Gained in
Fighting on Sunday.
az FRANCIS LAVELLE MURRAY,
STAFF Correspondent The International
News Service.

PETROGRAD, Feb. 2.-Another
great battle has developed east Of
Lowicz in Poland, where furious at
tacks and counter attacks have been
in progress for three days. In an Of
ficial statement issued today it was
admitted that on Sunday the Russians
holding the front near Bolimow were
driven from their first line trenches,
but later they regained some of these.
The forces of Field Marshal Won Hin
denberg drove their furious assaults
against the Russian army despite the
pounding of Russian artillery. The
fighting in that region indicates that
the Germans are trying to launch an
other drive against Warsaw to divert
the Russians from their operations in
East Prussia.
Lose Six Thousand Men.
German prisoners report that the
Germans last week lost over six thous-
and killed aud many prisoners. In
the Carpathians the Russians captured
seventy-eight officers and 4,O65 prison
ers, and took ten rapid-fire guns and
ten cannon.
'HOn Sunday the Germans concentrat-

region of Sochaczew, Borjimow and
Bolimow least of Lowicz in Poland)
and developed an offensive of great
tenacity which compelled us to retire
to our second line of tranches.
Counter attacks by the Russians
turned the Germans out of all the
trenches they had Occupied. causing
them colossal losses simultaneously
with the Borjimow attack, the Ger
mans carried out series of deter
mined assaults along a front from the
village of Gouime to the hamlet of
Moghelj, these being supported by
heavy artillery fire. We repulsed all
these attacks partly by artillery and
rifle fire and partly by the bayonet.
Carry Trenches.
Between noon and o'clock Sunday
afternoon the Germans, thanks to the
activity Of their artillery against our
trenches, succeeded in carrying part
of them. At o'clock we began a gen.
eral counter attack with the result
that toward evening on Sunday, the
enemy retained only small part of
the advanced trenches and a castle.
Thus the German success on Sunday
in the vicinity of Borjimow was insig-
nificant compared with the losses sus-
tanned by them through our fire and
bayonet attacks"

WRECK WHOLE BRIDGE.

VANCEBORO, Maine, Feb. 2.-The
steel bridge over the st. Croix river
from Vanceboro, Maine, to McAdam
Junction, N. B., an important link in
the Canadian Pacific railroad over
which most of the war shipments of
food and horses have been sent to st.
John, N. B., was blown up shortly after
1 o'clock this morning by Germans or
German sympathizers, according to the
belief of the railway officials.
The eastern one Of the three stone
piers which support the bridge was de-
stroyed by some high explosive with a
detonation which rocked the houses in
Vanceboro.
The steel girders of the last two
spans at the Canadian end of the
bridge were strained out of shape, held
together by the fragments and by the
steel rails. Not only was the third
pier, that toward the Canadian end of
the bridge completely wrecked, but it
is believed that the straining of the
steel structure has damaged the stand
ing piers.
Suspect Sympathizers.
Neither the Maine Central nor the
Canadian Pacific can advance motive
for the destruction OF the bridge other
than one arising from the war. There
has been no guard Of Canadian soldiers

Acting District Attorney Chapman of
Portland, was at once notified of
Horns arrest and at the same time the
federal authorities were appraised of
the situation. 1t is likely that inter

Horn, the prisoner, was asked why
he had dynamited the bridge, and
made answer. according to the police,
that his country was at war with
Great Britain and Canada was a part

TO SELL MILK on CREAM

Inc question sometimes arises
as to the best way to dispose of
milk. say selling it at 5 cents a
quart or receiving 80 cents a
pound for butter fat. One humid
red pounds of per cent milk will
contain pounds of butter fat.
and at 80 cents this will bring
si.20. The skim milk should be
worth 25 cents, bringing the total
to si.45. One hundred pounds of
milk will make 46 1-2 quarts
which at cents will bring S2.32.
However, when sold by the quart
the milk must be delivered per-
fectly sweet and the bulk that
needs to be delivered will be ! or 8
times as much as when sold as
cream. If near town it may pay
to sell the milk, but if at a dist
ance from market the extra cost
Of handling the milk may more

in price. However this is a pro-
blem for each one to work out for
himself on the basis of the figur.
