GERMANY EXPLAINS
 MERGER INCIDENT
Denies Report That Cardinal Was Ever Arrested by German Au-
 thorities in Belgium.

Rome. Jan. 8. 2:45 p. m.-The German government has sent to the vatican an explanation of the Mer- cler Incident, in which it says that there Is absolutely no truth in the re- port that the cardinal was ever arr rested by the German authorities in Beiglum or even confined to his own palace or prevented from leaving it.
 Continuing, this explanation says
 The German authorities, entrusted with the most delicate and difficul. task of maintaining order in Belgium and convincing the hostile populua- ton of that country of their sincere desire for their good, simply ad- dressed to Cardinal Mercier a most deferential prayer that he abstain from any attitude which might make difficult the accomplishment of their duty or ultimately entail risk to the Belgian people,"
 In following this course the Ger mans the explanation goes on, had in mind the fulfillment of the Christ ian duty. which must be particularly dear to minister of the church, of avoiding the shedding of blood
 Any agitation or tumult arising from even an indirect cause" the German communication says in con clusion, will render necessary severe measures on the part of the troops for the restoration of order"

KILLED DURING ATTACK
 ON GERMAN TRENCHES
Constantine Garibaldi Struck in Neck By Bullet on
 French Battlefield.

Paris, Jan. 8, 4;45 a. m.-Constan- tino Garibaldi, the second of the grandsons of the Italian patriot to die in the fighting in France, was killed during an attack on a series of three German trenches. The story of how he met his death is told by his brother. Captain Ricciotti Gari- haldi.
 After mines had been laid and ex- ploded, according to Captain Gari- baldi's story, the regiment of Italian volunteers rushed forward shouting Viva Trieste.'' They captured the first two trenches without difficulty but the third was more difficult proposition, being separated from the others by about 100 yards of open ground and commanded by hill.
 Notwithstanding, this the Garibal- Gians stormed the trench but the Germans delivered a fierce counter attack and the position of the Italian volunteers became difficult
 Colonel Peppino Garibaldi, the com mander, ordered the regiment to fall back, and Constantine, who com manded the reserves in the second trench, went forward to aid his com rades. Almost immediately he was struck in the neck by a bullet which severed the carotid and he fell within a few yards of where his brother, Peppino was standing.

COLE WITHDRAWS APPEAL
 10 THE SUPREME COURT
East Berlinite Now Ready to Pay Bill of Local
 Drug Firm.

From letter which Attorney A. w. Upson received today from Lawyer Charles w. Cramer of Middletown, it Is apparent that the end of the suit
 of the Dickinson Drug company of
 this city against George Cole of East Berlin which, although over only small bill of s37.75, gained fame in
 two trials and a contemplated appeal
 to the supreme court, is near at hand Not only has MT. Cole, through his 1 counsel, Lawyer Cramer. failed to per-
 feet his appeal to the highest court, in the required time, but he has off, fered to settle up upon the receipt of a bill, Attorney Cramer having writ l ten Send me a bill, including inter-
 est in the rug company case and I will have Mir. Cole send you a check"
 The now famous case originated last spring when MT. Cole refused to pay bill Of the drug concern for anti-toxin which pr. T c. Hodgson of East Berlin ordered a short time pre- vious for one of the Cole children who was suffering with diphtheria He contended that the attending physi- elan erred. inasmuch as he procured the desired drug elsewhere than from the Berlin health officer.
 The suit was first tried before Judge Willard l. filling in the Berlin court April of last year and judg- ment for the recovery of the bill was given the plaintiff. Mir. Cole took an appeal to the court Of comomn pleas and, after a hearing on December 2, last, the jury returned with verdict in favor of the drug company reconn- mending the payment of the entire bill, plus the accrued interest. The principal and interest, without the costs, amounted to S40.01 at that time.
 Attorney Cramer then fled inten- tions with the supreme court judge of taking an appeal. Last F'ri6ny cnd- ed the period in which he should have perfected the appeal, and, as nothing was heard from him. the case was thrown from tho docket.
 It was the principal in the case. rather than the amount involved. that the contracting partier eIdeavorcd to straightcn out.

Russians Continue to
 Pursue Turkish Forces

London, Jan. 8, 12.40 p. m.--Aside from the continued Russian pursuit of the Turkish forces defeated in the Caucasus and the continuation of the Russian advance through the passes of the Carpathian mountains, siege warfare with inteHnittent artillery duels seems for the moment to pre- vail almost everywhere in arena Of hostilities, in the eastern arena as ; we'll as in the western
 The reports reaching London show that General Won Hindenburg, the Herman commander in Poland, for some time past has made no apprecl- able progress toward Warsaw, the smud of Poland evidently having done sfor him what the broken dikes and the resultant inundations did for the Germans in West Flanders. de- spatch coming to London from Copen- hagen declares that Won Hindenburg Is expecting heavy endorsements and that with an army of one million men he purposes to make one more su- preme effort to break through to the Polish capital. The Russians would , appear to have had ample time to reinforce themselves and to strengthen their positions around Warsaw, and it is the opinion of Brit ish observers that the trench warfare for which the western theater of the war has become famous will be waged in the region of the Polish rivers.
 Austria Hungary again admits the retirement of her forces in Bukowina, ;t movement before which the Austrians are giving way that most spectacular development of the next fortnight may be expected to spring according to the opinion held today by some British observers of the war. The ar gument is made that once Russia gets good foothold beyond the Mountain passes, something that may be ac- complished in fortnight If the Rus sians meanwhile are not checked, a big stride toward the overrunning of Hungary would have been made. If this is accomplished it will be the first considerable invasion of any ter : fitory of the Teutonic allies.
 Both British and French news papers continue today to agltate the alleged arrest by the German author ities in Belgium of Cardinal Mercler. The Germans have been quick to < deny that the cardinal has in any . way been detained. The London papers, nevertheless, still give great prominence to the incident and pub tish the pastoral letter of the cardi- nal which was said to have given of- fense to the Germans, appending it to comments gathered far and wide from prominent clergymen and others. They also cast doubt on the German denial and declare that it will require statement from the cardinal him. self to clear up the matter.

 'The artillery of the enemy showed, during all the day of Jan. z, great &C., tivity in Belgium and in the vicinity of Arras. The French artillery re- sponded spiritedly and officaciously.
 "Our infantry made some progress near Lom baertzyde. We occupied at point fifty yards in advance of our trenches hillocl1 which had been held by the enemy. To the east of St. Georges we gained ground, and we inflicted serious damage on the trenches of the enemy in the vicinity of Steenstraate.
 "In the sector of Arras, at the For est of Rerthonval, without being at tackled we were compelled to evacuate certain trenches where our men were up to their shoulders in sand and wat CT. To the left of Boisselle our line of trenches has been moved forward, and we occupied the road from Bois- selle to Aveluy.
 Tn the valley of the Aisne the ar tillery exchanges yesterday were quite spirited. Our heavy artillery secured good results near Blanc Sab lon. At this point the mine throwers of the enemy inflicted losses on us. but in the afternoon we checked this fire from the Germans.
 Tn the sector of Rh eims, to the west of the Forest Des Zouaves, we blew up a block house and occupied new trench 200 yeards in advance of our lines.
 ''The artillery engagement between !. .Betheny, and Prunay was conducted yesterday with great fierceness.

 Tn the Argonne to the west of Haute Chevauchee, the enemy by means of a mine, blew up some of our first line trenches which were completely demolished. A violent at tack undertaken at once by the enemy on our position, was repulsed with the bayonet. We took some prison CTS and we maintained our front ex- cept for distance of so yards. Here the demolition of the trenches obliged us to establish our line 20 yards fur ther back
