Engagement Near Pnsk.
London, Sept. 27.-The position OF
the Russians from Wilma to the Cali
clan frontier appears to have been
improved greatly, three distinct vic
tories having been recorded almost
simultaneously at widely scattered
points on the Eastern front. This
achievement has mitigated to some
extent the uneasiness felt in England
as to the attitude of Bulgaria.
In the far north the situation is less
favorable for the Russians. They are
resisting Field Marshal Won linden
burg's men with characteristic stub
bcrnness, but the admission that
fighting is proceeding at Smielin.
three miles from Novo Alexandrovsk,
indicates that the approaches to the
latter town are in the hands of the
Germans and that the fate of Dvinsk
lis in doubt.
East of Wilma, north of Pinsk and in
the vicinity of Lutsk the Russians
have scored heavily. The Germans
characterize their reverses east of Vii

iunction-as of a temporary eharae-
ter, Notwithstanding their losses oil
guns and prisoners. Near Pinsk Field
Marshal Won Mackensen was thrown
back in an engagement that has
shaken his grip on the city.
Further south the Russians now
holding Lutsk are pressing their ad
vantage and seem to be assuming the
dominancy on the southern end OF
the line in a manner recalling the
fighting of last spring.

"I don't want to question Mayor Quigley's figures about the savings the icehouse effected for 10000 families but my judgment on that proposition is different said MT. Stanley, "I paid more than thirty cents a hundred pounds for ice last summer
 Then you were buncoed," said MT. Kehoe.
 We are the servants of the peo- pie and if they want an icehouse we should give it to them,'' said MT. Ross berg.
 "All I hear about the business is laughter replied Treasurer Cham berlain.
 Mayor Quigley said he was out to the plant yesterday with a man who has been in the ice business on the Hudson river, where it is carried on on a mammoth scale. The visitor remarked that the icehouse was not complete and advised the use of shay ings instead of sawdust for filling in between the sheathings. The mayor expressed the opinion that the repairs would not cost over s2,5O0 although $3,000 was asked for.
 Contamination of Water.
 Treasurer Chamberlain found fault because the original ice committee said the harvest would be taken in with electrical machines and that no horses would be used. This plan was not carried out and he did not believe it right to allow horses and men on Shuttle Meadow.
 Well that wasn't in my time, thank the Lord," said Mayor Quig- ley.
 Tt doesn't make any difference whose time it was in,'' replied the city treasurer
 'Tn my opinion it is very poor poli- cy for the city to buy up all the farms around Shuttle Meadow to pre- vent contamination and then allow men and horses to go on the ice,'' said MT. Stanley.
 Well, the house is there and we don't want to tear it down." said Mayor Quigley
 "I don't know whether that will be necessary as from all accounts it will fall down." replied MT. Stanley.
 'I don't say that the municipal ice venture did this, but if it did save the life of one baby it was bowling success said the mayor. There were many places private ice dealers never made any deliveries, places where ice was needed, places that are congested The city's venture changed that situation
 Judge Gaffney moved that $4,100 be appropriated for use by the water commission.
 'I have been dissatisfied from the start; I didn't believe it would be 9 success and it hasn't been success" persisted Treasurer Chamberlain.

MUNICIPAL ICE
 WINS NEW FIGHT
Opposition 0utVoted at Meeting Of
 Board Of Finance and Taxation

Opposition to the continuance of the municipal icehouse at the meet ing Of the board of finance and taxa tion last night was voted down by majority of the members of those present and it was decided to grant the water commissioners $4, 100 with which to make repairs that are inn mediately necessary and to harvest a crop. It is estimated that the cost: of harvesting will be $1,1OO and the remainder will be spent principally for sheathing, shavings for packing and binding the building together.
 City Treasurer F. s. Chamberlain and E. N. Stanley could not be con- vinced by any of the arguments put forth by the champions of the Ice business that it should be continued. The former said it would be throwing 1 good money after bad to make any further appropriation and the latter 1 found numerous faults with the ven- ture. These two led the attack on l the petition of the water commission ] CTS for the appropriation. Mayor I | Thomas H. Kehoe collaborated in up- holding the merits of the icehouse, the mayor and MT. Kehoe because they believed it had been of great benefit to the public in forcing pri- vate dealers to lower their price and deliver where ice had never been delivered before and Judge GaIney because he believed it poor business policy to abandon plant on which so much money had been expended.
 money had been expended.
 The water board was represented by 1 Chairman w. B. Rossberg and Clerk F. J. Egan. MT. Rossberg presented a prepared statement from the board showing the expenses of harvesting 1 the ice for the summer of 1915, which totalled s1,49s. He pointed to the fact that there is still $1,200 to the l credit of the municipal ice fund in the city treasury.
 | Mayor Quigley emphasized point that had not been brought up before, viz, that the icehouse is not a, com plete structure and that what are popularly known as repairs are really items with which to complete the structure. The sheathing should have been done in the first place, he said.
 1 "Absolute Failure"-Chamberla Raising his voice, Treasurer Cham 1 berlain said Two years ago the ice committee came around and asked
 us for an appropriation with which to erect an icehouse. We were told
 that the ice business would be won-
 derfully successful and profitable. It
 has been demonstrated to be an ab-
 solute failure. Then why go on with it?"
 s'Tll tell you why,' replied Mayor 1 Quigley. There are about 10000 1 families in this city which use ice
 When the price was forced down
 from forty cents a hundred pounds
 to thirty cents these 10000 families
 saved ten cents per week. They took

Ut is yet to be shown that it was not @ success" replied Judge Gaffney. "It would not be sound business iudg- ment to throw over the proposition today It is just like a man invest ing in stocks. When the stocks go down he is called on for more mar gin. If it has done any general good, if it has lowered the price of ice, if it has saved one baby, it was a sue cess.
