I5O, 900 RUSSIANS OUT OF FIGHTING.
 IS GERMAN CLAIM

Berlin, Feb 19-By wireless to Sayville, N. Y.-Further reports con corning the German victory of the Mazurian Lakes in East Prussia make it apparent that the Russian defeat was a severe one. German military officers in Berlin doubt whether much remains of about five Russian army corps which were. engaged in the recent battle.
 While the Russians may have saved some of their artillery thought quick retreat, it seems certain, army men say, that Russian troops to the num- Der of at least 150,0O0 are no longer to be reckoned with by the German armies.
 The clearing of the Austrian crown land of Bukowina, of the invaders also is taken by German officials to mean a Russian defeat on the other ex- treme wing of the operations in the east.

Will liamson, Bent and Hart ran back and released the men then after rousing the neighborhood, ran to the station again and caught the train for Bridge
 port.
 F It took a. long time for the. citizens
 of Milford to awake to the fact that their, most prized building was burn ing down. Mrs. F. A. Sumner of 21 River street first teIepfoned the alarm to the firemen. Arctic Hose company of Milford, came and found a 1ydrant near the town hall frozen.

 Chemical No. 1 from fire headquar-
 ters in Bridgeport.
 The assisting firemen found how
 ever that the flames had spread up
 through the arch in the center of the building leading to the cupo1a and there rnushroomed. out into other parts of the structure. The dry as finder timbers of the old building proved easy food for the flames. The town hall was buiIts~in 1S40. In one of che vaults is the old silver service which has been used for two cen turies in the old Plymouth church. It is not believed the silver was dam aged.

STATE DEPARTMENT AWAITS GERMANY'S
 REPLY TO PROTEST

Washington, Feb. 19-The of1icia text of Germany's reply to the Unite States note warning against damag to American ships in the naval war zone about the British Isles had not been received at the state depart rnent today; in fact there were no advices from Ambassador Gerard that it had. been delivered to him by the Berlin foreign office, although officials know from other adviees that the German note had been delivered to, the American ambassador and is,z in fact, now on its way to America.
 Officials explained the delay was due to the cable situation. When the cabinet assembled for the usual Friday meeting formal consideration of Germany's reply which had been expected did not take place because there were no Tadvfces from Berlin before the President.
 On the official report of the text published yesterday, however, the general situation was discussed in- formally.

 From Train
Fairfield Madman Escapes Keeper On Way From Nor
 wich State Hospital

Norwich, Conn, Feb. 19.-William Petroski. of Fairhe1o, jumped from moving express train near Westbrook this morning while being taken from the state hospital for the insane at Norwich to Bridgeport and escaped. Petroski has not been seen since, all though evidences have been found near the place where the man escaped which would indicate that he may have received fatal injuries.
 Petrosxi. was admitted as Q patient to the Norwich hospital Dec. 31, 1914,
 on an order by the judge of probate of
 Fairfield because he had threatened
 to kill his family and himself. A lu-
 aney adjudged him insane and danger
 ous.
 pr. Pollock, superintendent of the | institution stated to the Associated noon that Petroski had caused no :! trouble whatever while he was 9 patti ent in the hospital. Two weeks ago Petroski's attorneys secured a habeas corpus writ and he was instructed to
 produce PetHoski in the superior court for Fairfield County
 Petroski was taken to Bridgeport two weeks ago and presented before the superior court which heard argu- ments to have Petroski set at liberty. pr. Pollock gave his opinion that l while the man had shown no symp-
 
 ment at the hospital he ought not be 1 discharged.
 The court continued the case for l two weeks and Petroski was to have
 been presented before the court again today.
 The train was between two and l three miles from Westbrook when 1 Petroski asked leave to go to the 1 toilet While he did so the officer in 1 charge stood outside the door. When Petroski did not come out the officer suspected that something was wrong l and on Investigation showed the win- l dow of the toilet was open and Pe- 1 troski was nowhere to be seen. It | became evident that Petroski had l had made his escape out of the win 1 dow while the train was going 35
 miles an hour. The alarm was given and when the train reached Clinton
 members of the section were dis
 patched to look foP Petroski or his body. About mile east of West brook station the railroad men came l upon ofootmarks, blood and a cap (which it is supposed belonged to Pc l troski, but neither the man nor his body could be found.
 Petroski was about 35 years of age and came here from Poland about 5 years ago.

 HUSBANDS STORY
Salesman Tells Court How the Movies Game Into
 His Life

His Wife's fondness for dances and moving pictures caused Leslie Bailey. a salesman for the Star Shirt Go, to appear before Judge Webb in the superior court this afternoon to seek a divorce. Bailey, who is a dapper young man, said that his helprleet, whose name was Rose. couldn't be persuaded to stay home at night,
 Shortly after they were married in 1907 and when they were living in Saranac Lake, N. Y., the wife de- veloped 8 craze for dancing. She wanted to trip a, few measures every night unless she decided to visit one of the film palaces Bailey was em- p1oyed in a clothing store at the time and was too tired at night to care for leaving the old fireside. He 1908 and ordered her home. There was quarrel which resulted in Mrs. Bailey leaving her husband. Then Bailey went to work in Syracuse, N. Y, and lost track of his wife. He came to this city in 1911.
 Supt. Thomas Purdy of the Star Shirt Co. said Bailey was a young Bailey had been living as single man since 1911.
 I'm afraid this man has not made a very diligent effort to find out where his wife iss'' declared Judge Webb, after Bailey admitted he had not written to the girls father to try and locate her. The court said he would continue the case in order that Bailey might make an attempt to get some information from his father-in-law regarding Mrs. Bailey s whereabouts. The court thought she ought to have notice so she could contest the case if she desired.
