WHEELING, W. Va, Feb. 15.-Di-
rect testimony that Federal Judge A,

West Virginia, had spoken derosa-
tory of the United Mine Workers OF
America, was presented to the sub

DECISIVE BATTLE
IN NORTH POLAND
IS LOOKED FOR
Russians Retreating from East
Prussia Trying to Reform
Their Lines.
GERMANS VICTORIOUS
IN FRENCH LORRAINE
Both Austrians and Russians
Claim Victories Along Front
in carpathians.

OF the great struggle in Poland
Galicis and Bukowina there is little
new information in the official re-
ports today. A decisive battle in
northern Poland is looked for when
the retreating Russians, who are
now trying to reform their lines,
reach positions on which they decide
TO make their stand. In Bukowina
another important contest is in
progress. The long-drawn struggle
in the Carpathians shows no sign OF
approaching an end. Both the Aus
trian and Russian war offices claim
victories along this front.
In French Lorraine the Germans
achieved a local victory, occupying
positions which the allies were able
10 recover only in part by counter
attack. Trench warfare continues
with varying degrees of intensity
elsewhere along the front, and both
the French and German war offices
in todays communications claim
small victories.

Thus Far in War
'History's Most Expensive Con-

Says Lloyd-George.
BY the United Press.

BY the United Press.
LONDON. Feb. 15.-Ten billion
dollars have been appropriated by
the allies thus far in the most eX-
pensive war from the standpoint of
human lives. dollars and war material
ever waged, David Lloyd George,
chancellor of the exchequer asserted
in the House of Commons this after
noon.
Lloyd Georges statement was
mads in response to requests for
information about the recent confer
enee at Paris, at which representa-.
tives of the allies discussed war
finance. He added that Great Britain
Is spending probably $500,000,000 or
$3.50, 100000 more than either Russia
or France 'in the fight against Ger
man militarism."
The chancellor, however, assured
members that there was no danger
that England's resources or the re-
sources of any of her allies would be
exhausted in the near future,
England" he said, could finance
her share of the war expenditures
for five years, solely out of the pro-
ceeds of her investments abroad.
France could finance her share fog
two or three years by a similar
means and still have something to
spare. There need be no fear as To
Russia. Through her prodigiously
rich national resources she is in a
different position from either France
or England"

Shell Palace of
Monfenegrin King
Royal Family, Despite Danger,
Witnesses Thrilling Battle
in the Sky.
By the United Press.


CETTINJE, Feb. 15.--Austrian avi-
ators made an unsuccessful attack
upon King Nicholas's winter palace
at Rieka. according to dispatches re-
ceived here today. Bombs were
dropped within few rods of the pal
ace, but did little damage. The king,
the queen and the Princesses Vera
and Xenia saw a thrilling fight be-
tween the palace guards and the avi.
ators, who were finally driven off.
The sky warriors flew in over the
Lake Scutari, and began raining
bombs, trying to hit the roof of the
royal residence. One missile crashed
through the glass roof of conserva>
tory, short distance from the pal
ace itself, but others we're thrown
wildly.
Princess Vera rusht out on to the
lawn, attracted by the noise of the
explosion. The king and queen and
other members of the royal family
followed, despite the warning from
the guards that they should enter tho
cellar of the residence. Several spent
bullets fell within a few yards of the
royal party, and were promptly gath
cred as souvenirs by the princesses.
After dropping all their bombs the
aviators fed.

New German Offer
to Italy Predicted
Concrete Proposal for italian
Participation in War Is
Reported.

ROME. Sunday, Feb. IA $3.50 d. m.)
The Idea Nazionale, newspaper
published in the interests of the Ma
tionalist party, publishes forecast
of German proposals to Italy, which
reads as follows:
Before the end of February Prince
Won Buelow, the German ambassador
to Italy, will present to the italian
government a concrete proposal for
italian participation in the war on
the side of Germany. This consists of
the cession by Austria of the Prov
ince of Trieste and the rectification of
the eastern italian frontier by the
addition of strip of land going as
far as the IsonZo river. In addition
Germany will pledge herself to con-
clude new treaty with Italy which
will afford protection to Italy's Med
iterranean interests.
at once in the war. She will occupy
Tunis and help Turkey drive the
English from Egypt which will re-
turn under the dominion of the sultan
of Turkey. In addition the Italian
fleet will attack the Anglo French
naval forces in the Mediterranean"
At the conclusion of one of his con-
versations with the italian statesmen
Prince Won BueIow, according to this
newspaper, made use of this phrase:
EITHER Italy will be friendly to-
ward us or we will treat her worse
than we are treating England"
