Police Believe Murders in Colorado,

st. Louis, Mo.-Inquiries made of
the st. Louis police indicated that the
arrest here of Loving Mitchell, ne
gro, would result in reopening inves-
LEGATIONS to thirty murders committed
since 1911, identical in nearly every
detail. The crimes were committed at
night while victims lay asleep in their
beds, and all came to their death by
means of blows from an ak.
The warrant on which Mitchell was
arrested charges him with the muir
ders of William E. Dawson, his wife
and daughter in Monmouth, ILL.,, on the
night of Sept. 80, 1911.
Communities in Missouri, Illinois,
Iowa, Colorado and Kansas have been
terrorized since the first ak murders
committed in September, 1911, in Colo
rado Springs, Colo, when six persons
were slain. In nearly every instance
the murderer killed an entire family.
Mitchell laughs at his arrest and
says he will be able to clear himself.
He made no objection to being taken
back to Illinois to face the charge of
murder
A list of recent ak murders follows:
H. G. Wayne, wife and child, and
Mrs. A. ]. Burnham and two children,

GEN. SCOTT ENDS PlUTE REVOLT.
Former Army Chief Induces Hatch,
Old Polk and Posey to Surrender

Bluff, Utah.-The rebellion of the
Piutes in Utah is ended Brig. Gen.
Hugh l.. Scott, emissary of the federal
government, Saturday accomplished
his peaceful mission and brought into
Bluff as prisoners the ringleaders of
the redskins-Chief Polk, his. son,
Hatch (Tse-Ne-Gat, Chief Posey and
his eldest boy. After month of war
fare and scouting back and forth
among the hills and cafions, the In
dians were brought in so quietly that
hardly citizen of the town was aware
Of the entrance of General Scott and
his captives until they had marched
to the office of the sheriff.
The prisoners were taken to Salt
Lake City to join a dozen others
braves who have been gathered in by
the whites in the early skirmishes-
and all will probably be tried at the
next term of the Federal Court there.
Diplomacy and tact of an old Nava-
jo, Bho-She, noted as a peacemaker
among the tribes of this country,
brought about the surrender of the re,
calcitrant Piutes.

London. March 25.-A British air
fleet, flying inland from the coast
above Antwerp. routed two Zeppelins
and five Taubes in battle in mid-air
following an attack on the German
submarine base at Hoboken, in which
one submarine was sunk and another
badly damaged by bombs.
Following this exploit the English
aviators outflew the German aero
nauts and reached their base at Dun
kirk in safety.
According to admiralty reports, the
fleet originally included five aero
planes carrying rapid-fire guns in ad-
dition to bombs.
Two were obliged to turn back be-
cause OF bad weather conditions, while
third was forced to land in Holland
because OF engine trouble Its pilot
and observer were interned. The sink

seem, therefore, to have been accom-

Royal corps.
In the same region 1t is reported
that the Germans are preparing for
another supreme effort in Flanders.

fighting along the User, the Germans
having bombarded Nieuport and Dix

pathians, where, in their official COM
munication, the Russians claimed to
have captured a number of Austrians
and to have made general advance.
Austrian correspondents declare that
this battle is likely to continue for
some time. 1t is possible that the
Russians will use part of the troops
released by the fall of Przemysl in an
endeavor to bring the battle to an end.
The Austrians have developed a
fresh offensive in Bukowina, to which
they some days ago sent reinforce
ments and have, according to their
account, driven the Russians back
across the frontier and removed the
Immediate menace of Czernowitz.
On the other extreme wing of the
eastern front, the Germans have re-
occupied Memel with the assistance Of
their warships, which have since bonn
barded the roads by which the Rus
slams were falling back. The Germans
also apparently have checked the Rus
sian advance on Tilsit.

for seven days prior to the fall of the
fortress the people OF the town had
nothing to eat, and the Russians, who
took in large supplies of provisions,
We're welcomed as liberators. Dis
patches from the same place say that
$4,000 persons were found suffering
from typhus or cholera, and that the
work of disinfecting the place is being
energetically undertaken. All around
the fortress burning forts smoked like
circle of volcanoes, while continuous
explosions We're heard as the Austri
ans blew up ammunition stores.
From Perekopague, suburb of
Przemysl, close view was obtained
bridges had been destroyed by the
Austrians, but the Russians had al
ready constructed a pontoon bridge,
by which Austrian troops and the in
habitants were leaving the town. The
Cossacks were waiting to go in.
Now that the Russians, whose num-
bers, like those of the Austrians, must
be greater than was heretofore under
stood, are no longer under obligation
to invest this fortress, a big move
ment either against Cracow or the
Carpathians doubtless will be inaugur-
ated With their northern lines pro-
tected by the morass into which the
greater part of Poland is converted
during the spring months, the Rus
slams are expected to throw all their
strength against the Austrians and at
tempt finally to crush them.
One British military critic goes so
far as to stake his reputation on the
prophecy that Cracow will fall within
the next month, and that when it
does, or before, Austria will endeavor
to conclude a separate peace.
He is more optimistic than the ma
jority of military critics here, who are
of the opinion that Austrians and
Germans will likewise make great
effort in the southern field and at
tempt to prevent the Russians from
crossing the Carpathians or reaching

Przemysl has ended
Depleted by disease, subsisting on
horseflesh, and surrounded by SUI
periov force of Russians, the garrison
has surrendered to the besieging
army after a defense lasting many
months, which up to the present is re-

The newspapers assert that the fall
OF the fortress marks the most import

Antwerp, in that it not only releases
considerably Russian forces which can
be thrown into the fluctuating strug-

door to Cracow and the plains of

The duration of the siege. compared
with the length OF time it took the
Germans to capture such strongholds
as Liege, Namur and Antwerp, was
due to two causes, one being the de-
sire of the Russians to keep the loss
OF life among the besieging army at a
minimum. the other to a lack of great
guns which the German had in Bel.
