ALONG FRONT IN
NORTH POLAND
Villages Have Changed Hands
Several Times, Petrograd
Declares.

Along the East Prussian border,

POLITICS SEEM
TO Be CRA|G'S
ONLY TROUBLE
Slayer of Women Criticises
President Wilson's Policies.
Wants Newspapers.

Hiram E. Craig, the Jersey City
man who murdered Miss Hattie
Reeve and Mrs. Mamie Clark last
Saturday at their home on South
Orange avenue, continues to improve,
and physicians at the City Hospital
say the danger of blood poisoning Is
growing less rapidly.
Craig's strength has returned to
such a degree that he wants to read
the papers, but he is not permitted
to do so, largely because he requires
spectacles to read. and the police will
not permit him to handle any article
which might be used as a means Of
self destruction.
He assured his guard many times
that he is not concerned with mat
ters of local happening, nor very
much interested in the progress of
the war, but he does want to
keep track of American politics.
Craig is very much opposed to the
policies of President Wilson, or at
least such of them as deal with in
ternal affairs.
Craig does not believe In any of
the Wilson attempts to regulate
business. nor in Federal inquiries into
industrial conditions of private phil
anthropies, but is most vigorously
opposed to the Presidents stand on
the tariff, the. Presidents attitude
toward big business and the rich,
and he expresses himself as fixed in
his cppnsit'on to them.
The patient has made several re-
quests for his spectacles and becomes
quite moody after each refusal. On
one occasion last night he said: IF
you think / want to do myself harm
with the spectacles tie my hand be-
hind may back and put them on me
yourself and keep my hands tied

GOVERNOR TELLS
SOLONS THE EVILS
OF GODFREY BILLS
In Special Message He Strong
ly Opposes Lehigh's Designs
on Morris Canal.
Irom a stair correspondent.

TRENTON. Feb. "a. = Governor
Fielder sent special message to the
Legislature late yesterday afternoon
expressing his opinion of the Godfrey
bills for the abandonment of the Nor
ats canal Governor Fielder did not
mince his words. He characterized
the bills as playing right into the
hands of the Lehigh Valley railroad,
giving it the valuable basins in Jer-
sey City and acreage in Phillipsburg.
tIe also opposed the Ostrom bill,
which he said is just as Objectionable.
AS result of the governors sudden
message there is CONSERVATION among
the legislators here today. The Re-
publicans do not seem to know what
to do. The Democrats made up their
minds last night. They held meet
ing and decided to stand with the
governor and oppose the Godfrey bill.
Tho Republicans are holding a con-
ference today. They went into Il
with the idea of modifying the God
frey bill, but no one knew along what
1inossthe modification would be.
Governor Fielder in his message
suggested a plan to solve the ques-
ton OF canal abandonment. He pro-
poses that the canal company and
the Lelngh Valley Railroad turn
over TO the Department of Conserva-
tion and Development, when consti-
tuded, all property belonging to the
Canal company including all water
rights, and that the canal be aban-
doned; that In consideration of the

BY the Associated Pre.s.

MANILA. Feb. 24.--Four hundred

iment which revolted at Singapore
on February 10 have been killed, as
well as seven German prisoners from

have killed all their officers save the
colonel, and then attacked civilians,
several of whom we're killed, includ-
ing one woman.
The revolt began without warning.
Half of the Fifth Light Infantry of
Bengalese on their way to Egypt,
numbering 500, suddenly attacked and
subdued the other half. Reports
brought here are to the effect that
the rebellious troops killed none of
the Hindu soldiers who remained
loyal, but they did kill some of their
officers, including British and native,
They then attacked the houses Of
civilians, according to the stories,
killing men, but sparing the women
and children, who sought refuge on
the transport Nile, lying in the
harbor
Seven Prisoners Join Mutiny.
The mutineers offered freedom to
an Germans in the detention camp
who would join them. Only seven of
the prisoners accepted the proposal,
the others preferring to remain where
they were.
The half regiment which rem ined
loyal soon organized itself and start
ed out to attack the mutineers. The
troops were Joined by Europeans OF
all ages, who offered their services
as volunteers. In the running fights
which followed four-fifths of the re-
voting Indians are said to have been
killed, and II is believed only about
100 now remain In the country sur
rounding Singapore. The troops
which are attempting to quell the
mutiny were reinforced the following
day by sailors landed from French,
British and Japanese warships. The
revolt began at time when there
were no war vessels in port.
Rumors Of Unrest.
Other reports received here from
Singapore are to the effect that there
are rumors of unrest among the ma
tives in Rangoon, Colombo and Java.
An official report given out in Lon
don last night by the bureau of In
formation said that the revolt of the
native troops was due to jealousy and
dissatisfaction concerning promo
tions. 1t was stated that in "a serious
riot" which followed there was a
''regrettable loss of life.' The cas-
ualties given were twenty-five per-
sons killed, including eight officers,
and others wounded.
A communication issued later by
the colonial office said thirty-five per-
sons had been killed, fourteen of
whom were residents of Singapore.
The statement added that some of the
rioters were killed and that a large
number surrendered or were cap
tured.

PETROGRAD, via London. Feb. "A,
1855 D. m.-Officers of the Russian
general staff believe that the Ger
man plan of operations in northern
Poland is to concentrate attention
upon the Russian fortresses along the
rivers Niemn and Bobr. and with
their left wing safely established on
Russian territory, to make a general
southerly movement, meeting the
Austro-G German forces advancing
northward from the Carpathians and
acquiring a large section Of Poland
in addition to that already under
their control.
The success of this gigantic move
ment is dependent upon the ability
of the Germans to capture the line
of fortresses of which Ossowetz IS
the first to be singled out. The lat
est communication from the Rus
sian general staff indicates that the
Germans have achieved no success in
this initial attempt.
In view Of the difficulty Of pene-
trating the fortified line at this
point. where the marshy land pre-
sents a serious obstacle. the Germans
evidently are shifting their attack to

TOO LATE FOR MINE
TAX BILL THIS YEAR
Tax Commissioners Declare That
Work of Assessment Will be Com
pIeted Before Measure Could
Be Passed

Whether the inclusion of some pro-
vision for a mine tax bill in the gov
ernor's call for an extra session
would be of any avail as affects the
assessment of mining properties for
1915 was the question discussed at
an informal conference of the com
mittee of Phoenix citizens and the
state tax commission yesterday.
Members of the commission pointed
out that even should a mine tax law
be enacted at the coming extra seS
sion, the assessment for this year
would have already been made. The
commission, they stated was already
engaged in examining the reports of
the various mining companies, and
would finish its work of valuation
before any bill could possibly be
passed by the Legislature. There was
every disposition on the part of the
commission, they stated, to give the
mines a square deal, and the best of
feeling prevailed between members
and the mining interests. The com
mittee will probably meet again with
the commission next week.
