For Municipal Research.

For Municipal
With representatives present from
almost every city and town in New
Jersey, the annual conference of the
State and local boards of health was
held here. In his address DIR. R. B.
Fitz-Randolph, director of the State
Library of Hygiene, said that every
municipality of 10000 or more popula-
ton should be able to support a dag
nostic laboratory in which service
more useful than that obtained from
the State Laboratory could be render
ed. He pointed out that the State
laboratory still would have it's field
in the smaller municipalities and rural
districts, which, for financial reasons,
cannot undertake to operate laborator-
les. it also can aid municipal labora-
tories.
The health problems of small com
munities were discussed by DR.. Leroy
w. Hubbard, sanitary supervisor for
Westchester and Putnam counties, N.
Y, and DR.. John F. Anderson, director
of the hygienic laboratory of the Pub
Lie Health Service at Washington, who
said that the present-day need was
not so much more knowledge as to
the cause and transmission of disease
as application of this knowledge to
their control and eradication.

Washington-The War Risk Tnsur-

total insurance issued by the Govern
ment on the freight teamer Evelyn.
which was sunk in the North Sea
amounts to $401, 900.
The profits of the bureau TO date
exceed the loss on the Evelyn BY
nearly 100000. This does not take
into account the loss Of the Garth,

Amsterdam.-The German newspa-

United States. The Vossische Zeitung
which often reflects the views of the
Government, says:

INVESTIGATE Loss OF EVELYN.

Washington.-U. S. Naval Attache
Gherardi at Berlin has been instruct
ed by Secretary Daniels to make a
thorough investigation of the loss of
the American cotton-carrying ship
Evelyn, which struck a mine in the
North Sea and sank.
No trouble between the German and
American government is expected in
Washington over the case of the
Evelyn, as she was not in the new
war zone recently proclaimed by
Germany and she was not sunk by a
submarine, but as the result OF an ac-
cident.
William L. Harriss, head of the Har-
riss-Irby Cotton Co. Of New York,
owner of the Evelyn, which was car
rying cotton to Bremen, says his firm
will make no protest to the State De-
partment, as the loss was due to a
war risk. incidentally, the Evelyn is
the first loss to be sustained by the
U. S. Bureau of War Risk Insurance,
which has already earned $500, 600 in
premiums.

London.-An official statement is
sued by the German General Staff an
nounces that the German victory in
East Prussia was of even greater mag
nitude than the earlier reports had in
dicated. The complete rout of the
Russians with the capture Of more
than 100000 men, including seven
Generals, and a huge quantity of war
munitions and artillery is now claim
ed.
The Russian version of the East
Prussian situation was given in a dis
patch to Petrograd from the Grand
Duke Nicholas, the Russian comman-
der-in-chief. He admits that his troops
were forced from East Prussia, but
says that the greater part of the Ma
zurian Lakes army escaped intact.
One army corps held the German
thanking movement in check during
the retreat. The Russians are now
resuming the offensive on a line just
inside the frontier in northern Poland.
The official German statement is as
follows:
The pursuit, after the winter bat
tie in the Mazurian district, has come
to an end. During the clearing opera
tons to the northwest of Grodno and
in the battles reported during the last
few days in the Bobr and Maven dis
trict n commanding general and four
other generals and approximately 49,
600 men have been taken prisoners
up to the present. Seventy-fve can
non and some machine guns, the ac-
tual number of which has not yet been
ascertained, and much other war ma
terial have been captured.
The total booty taken in the winter
battle in the Mazurian district as a
result Of these additions has been in
creased to date to seven generals,
more than 100, 1000 men, upward of $50
n and quantities of other materi-
al of all descriptions, the amount of
which cannot yet be approximately es-
timated.
The Tenth Russian Army, under
Gen. Baron Sievers, is considered as
having been destroyed.
Inc RUSSIAN statement explains that
the Grand Duke was aware on Febru-
airy 4 that the Germans in East Prus-
STA had been heavily reinforced, but
could not aid his troops there because
of a lack of railways and bad march
ing conditions. A retirement was or
dered, but the Germans pressed the
pursuit so hard that the whole Rus
sian army vas on the verge of being
wiped out when n corps turned hero
ically and held the enemy at bay.
The rest of the force under Baron
Sievers, numbering about no. 900 men,
got safely to their defensive positions,
but the gallant 10000 were annihilat-
ed, only scattered parties returning to
the Russian lines. The Grand Duke
asserts that the Germans suffered
great losses throughout the action.

HALT cRoSS-cHANNEL TRAFFIC.
London.-With the stoppage of all
cross-Channel traffic and the suspen-
sion of the services to Flushing, Great
Britain was virtually cut off from the
rest of Europe. This is the salient
development of the German naval pol
icy, the t~orpedoing of two merchants
men affording earnest that the Ger
man threats are to be followed by exc
cution.
The merchantmen attacked were
the Norwegian owned tank steamship
Belridge, New Orleans for Amsterdam,
with a cargo of oil, and the French
steamer Dinorah, Havre for Dunkirk.
On official statement issued by the
Admiralty says the Belridge was
struck by a torpedo fired by a German
submarine near Folkestone. Pieces
of the torpedo have been found on the
ship. The Belridge was beached at
Walmer with her forepeak awash. At
ter her crew of nineteen had been
landed she was foated and arrange
ments were made for her to proceed
to Thames Haven conveyed by a tug.
The Dinorah was torpedoed off
Dieppe by the German submarine U-16
but Nss towed into port before she
could sink.
The 'cross-Channel services from
Irish to British ports are taking no
notice of the German blockade.
AS yet, no retaliatory measures
against the German submarine and
mine blockade have been announced.
The British Foreign Office issued
two replies to notes of the United
States Government. One was concern
ing the use of the American flag by
British vessels; the other related to
the Wilhelmina, which recently put
in at Falmouth with a cargo of food
consigned by a St. Louis commission
firm to its W agent, an American, at
Hamburg, to be sold only to the civil
population of Germany.
Sir Edward Grey, the British For
elgn Secretary, announced in the note
about the Wilhelmina that her cargo
had been held for a prize court. He
intimated that Great Britain might de-
clare as c~ontraband all foodstuffs
bound for Germany.
While justifying L~usitania's flying
OF the Stars and Stripes, it is announ-
ced in the second note that there is
no intention of advising ships to run
up foreign colors as a general prac-
tlce.
