of East Prussia.

London, Feb. 16.-German forces
have captured the important Polish
town of Plock, the Berlin war office
announced today. Plock lies on the
Vistula, northwest of Warsaw, and the
Russians pushed their advance far be-
yond it in their movement against the
West Prussian border, which appar-
emily has now been ended. Not only
Plock, but the town of Rielsk is said
to have been lost by the Russians. In
East Prussia, the Berlin communica-
tions state, the advance of the Ger
mans continues and the Russians have
been pursued across the border.
1t is expected in London that to-
night or tomorrow England will pro-
claim the cutting off of all foodstuffs
from Germany in retaliation for Ger
many's declaration that the waters
surrounding the British Isles consti-
tuted war zone.

WIN PARTY FIGHT

ture Failed to Harmonic.

In a party fight in the house today
in which Speaker Stone took the floor
for the administration. the Republi-
cans defeated the passage of the sem
ate resolution urging congress to pass
the ship purchase bill. Mahurin Of
Coffey who led the fight for the DEM
ocrats, was unable to hold all the
minority forces in line and on an aye
and nay vote. the Democrats were
SWamped.
took up the resolution urging the pas
sage of the ship purchase bill. Even
the senate amended the measure un-
til it was mild, colorless and almost
meaningless. In the house today the
measure never had a chance for life.
Mahurin rushed to the front with
the pulmotor, but the house refused
to become excited over the situation.
Considerable party oratory was turned
loose. The Republicans found a real
opportunity to fay the Democratic tar
iff and to point with derision to the
national administrations policies. But
that was about all.
Urging the defeat of the resolution,
Speaker Stone told the house that the
ship purchase bill was dynamite. IT
held every opportunity for interna-
tional complications. he said, and Of
fered no certain relief.
Besides, Stone saw dangerous pre-
cedents established and the possible
dragging of the nation into the Euro
pean war. Mahurin urged the adop-
ton of the resolution as a relief from
stagnant shipping facilities on the
high seas. He declared 1t was the
only action which insured the moving

against the resolution. So did Martin

said Martin. 'Why you were getting

the values Il beef shipped to that
market before it is put on the scales
to be weighed, Senator l. M. Mahin
of Smith county, has introduced a
drastic measure to enforce the imme-
diate weighing of animals when sold.
That the abuse of the "shrinkage"

portions since the fire which de-

is the assertion made by the author of
the bill, who visited the yards while
gathering data in its preparation.
Since the fire, says Mahin, the stock
yards company has failed to put in
operation more than half of the scales
which were in use before that de-
struction so that where they were IN
adequately equipped, it is now imp9s-

London, Feb. 16-Folks on the
East Coast have no need of look
outs to warn them of a battle in
the North sea. Even when they
can not hear the gun-firing they
have auguries of the battle in the
phaasants. in which the country
thereabout abounds. Hours before
the people of London were aware
OF 1t. many East Coast residents
knew there had been an engage
ment on the morning of Sunday,
January "a. Almost Immediately
firing had begun the pheasants
made a great stir and fuss, and
those old residents able to read
signs realized that the sensitive
girds were aware Of distant cam
nonading. Similar demonstrations
by the birds had been made on pre-
viOus occasions. Pheasants else
where along the coast have dis
played the same uneasiness during
naval engagements. Their sensi-
tive organism catches the faintest
distant tremors. when the human
