thing at Bzura, west of Warsaw,
has cost the Germans heavy
losses, 1t is stated today. General
Won Mackenzen has hurled six
regiments against the Russian po-
sition in Southwest Sochaczew in
repeated charges for four days.
His object was to cut path to-
ward Warsaw that would cause
the abandonment of the Russian
campaigns in that portion and
Konigsberg.
Heavy artillery tore great CARS
in the German lines. While the
infantry engaged the forces, Ger
man sappers tunnelled their way
nearly 100 yards to the first line
Of Russian trenches. BY chance
q Russian officer discovered the
mouth of the tunnel and a little
group Of Germans was made pris-
oners. Two machine guns were
rushed to the mouth of the tunnel
and the company of Germans was
slaughtered underground.

MURDER.
MAY BE
ARG {

Evan Pangis, q Greek vegetable
vendor at the public market. Is
near death today in the Tacoma
General hospital. The police are
searching the city for Walter
Riviere, longshoreman, who Is
accused of attacking him.
The two men fought a san
culinary battle in Riviere's room
in lodging house at $50 T. street
last night. with Mrs. Pangis as
the causus belli. according to de-
tails CLEANED at police headquar-
tiers.
Returning to his rooms In the
lodging house with thoughts OF n
warm supper after a hard days
work, Pangis missed his wife and,
the police say. discovered her IN
Riviere's room, enjoying a tete-
a-tete as they slipped glasses of
beer.
Pangis objected. He reproach-
ed his wife and rebuked the long
shoreman. Riviere answered
with a smashing blow over PAN
gis' head, using a heavy earthen
dish for a WEAPON. according to
police reports. The husband and
the longshoreman ciinched and,
as the wife looked on, they fought
viciously. Pangis was worsted.
He was unconscious when taken
to the hospital and is still in a
critical condition.
Riviere escaped and has thus
far eluded the police posse hunt
ing for him.
