FRENCH WOMAN EXECUTED
Holland Newspaper Says German Off.
Ger Shot Victim in Head With
His Revolver.

Amsterdam.-The Telegram states
that the Germans have executed a
French woman, Mile. Louise Frenzy, at
Liege. 1t is asserted the firing squad
carrying out the execution purposely
aimed low and hit the woman's legs.
The officer then shot her through the
head with his revolver.
1.-THE same thing happened in the
case of Miss Cavell," says the Tere-
graf. she was fired on by a party OF
~, but only one bullet touched her, but
did not kill her, 1t was after this that
the officer of the firing party drew his
revolver and, putting it to the woman's
ear, fired.

execution was overcome by horror and

Memphis.-An absolute divorce OF

campaign to get the Democratic ad

behind such a movement were unani-

To this end Senator J. T. Robinson

The conference did not discuss the

RUSSIA PREPARES TO SEND A
HEAVY FORCE TO STRIKE At
BULGARiANS.
MARCH THROUGH MANIA
Turkey is Also Listed in New Plans OF
Allies In the Balkan Warfare.
Making Preparations for
Winter.

Paris.-There is reason to believe
that Russia has definitely decided to
send a large force to cooperate with
the allies in the Balkans. This force
will land either on the Bulgarian coas.
of the Black Sea or pass through Rou-
mania with that country's permission
and attack Bulgaria from the north.
France and Britain also seem disposed
to send large effective forces to Sa-
loniki.
Generally speaking, the indications
are that the campaigns in France and
Russia are now practically closed for
the winter, and both the French and
the British. therefore. can spare con-
siderable quantities of men for opera
tons elsewhere. Military experts point
out that the warfare in the Balkans
will take on the aspect of two separate
campaigns. The first, which is now in
progress, will doubtless end in Ger
man-Bulgar territory. but it will be
followed Immediately by & second CAM
paign in which the allies. concentrat-
ed along the Greek frontier. will at
tempt to invade Bulgaria and, il pos
sib!e, Turkey. while the Russians op-
crate to make a diversion through Rou-
mania or on the Bulgarian coast and
the remnants of the Servian army har-
ry the invaders from the mountains.
The first campaign should be over
within a month, but the second will
probably last all winter, possibly long
er. depending upon the outcome. Then
with the spring of 1916 violent hostil.
tiles will be resumed on the French
will again become a secondary theater
OF war.

FACING A FOOD SHORTAGE
Neutral Travellers Say People Of Ger
many in Cities Are Suffering for
Food Necessities.

New York.-In spite of official as
surances of the German governments
confidence that it is able to cope with
all problems growing out Of a shortage
of food supplies, neutral travellers re-
turning from Germany declare that the
food crisis in Germany is most serious
and that while the kaiser's armies are
fighting successfully all the leading
powers of Europe, the Germans al
home are experiencing very bitter suf-
fering as a result OF the e%ver-increas-
ing prices of food products. The short
age in necessary articles of diet is act
ually felt, according to these travellers,
throughout the empire, and riots of
grave proportions are occurring within
the leading cities.
These statements are borne out by
the German newspapers. which have
been permitted to publish accounts OF
the scenes in the markets.

GREECE DEAF TO ALLIES
Clear to Enter War Now-DecIine
Island Of Cyprus.

London.-The Greek government
has informed the quadruple entente
powers that it does not see its way
clear at present to accept the pro.
posals, including the cession of Cy-
prus and other concessions, offered in
return for Greek military cooperation
with Servia.

Greece's reply to the offer is lengthy
and while 1t has not been made public,
there is reason to believe the Hellenic
kingdom bases its decision on the
ground that the Anglo-French force
landed at Saloniki Is not, in the Greek
governments opinion, strong enough
for the task allotted 1t.
The refusal of the allies offer was
not unexpected, as it has been stated
often in official circles that both Rou-
mania and Greece were Withholding

London.-The Bulgarians a|nnounce

tant junction on the Saloniki-Nish
railway, thus placing themselves
across the route by which the allies

10 PERSONS DIE IN FIRE
Twelve Of Victims in Pittsburs Blaze
Were Girl Employees of Paper
Box Company.

Pittsburgh.-Thirteen persons were
killed and eight injured by a fire in a
four-story building. the two upper
floors of which were occupied by the
Union Paper Box Company, on the
North Side here. OF the dead all but
one were young employed by
the company. Many bodies were so
badly burned Identification was diff
cult. Mayor Armstrong has ordered
that the police, city council and the
coroner's jury make a thorough inves-
tigation of the fire.

quietly. The flames gained such head

SOLDIERS IN MORE FIGHTS
Twenty u. S. lnfantrymen Are Fired
On BY Mexican Bandits Near the
Scene Of Recent Wreck.

Brownsville, TeXas.-Soldiers of the
Fourth United States Infantry and
Mexican bandits engaged in another
skirmish shortly after s o'clock on the
night of Oct. "a at the scene of the
recent train wreck robbery and series
of murders. But one American SOL
der, Private Herman E. Moore, was
wounded in the fight, according to re-
ports received at Fort Brown. Moore
was struck in the abdomen by a Mex
lean bullet.
Sergeant Arthur Eastridge Of Com
pany C, Fourth Infantry; was in COM
mand of the detachment attacked. He
reported to Fort Brown headquarters
that five Mexicans were seen to cross
the railroad track just beyond where
the infantry was stationed.
1t appeared that the soldiers and
Mexicans opened fire on each other
about the same time, according to the
soldiers version. There is still an
uncertainty as to who fired the first
shot. The firing lasted about five
minutes. Probably 100 shots were
fired. Private Moore probably will not
survive his wounds. There were no
Mexicans killed so far as known.
The plans of the Mexicans are be-
lieyed to have miscarried. 1t is
thought they intended surrounding the
Americans and deliver a surprise at
tack. This was prevented, it is be-
lieved, by the vigilance of the soldiers,
who saw the five men crossing the
tracks.

DYNAMITERS. ARE CAUGHT
vice Men Had Much Explosives
and S~eaboard Maps.

New York.-A sergeant in the Ger
mar army, who fought in the battle or
the Marine. and a German who is said
to have been connected with Wilhelm
strasse, have been arrested in Wee
hawken, n. j., by a squad Of New York
detectives and government secret SER
vice men.
The prisoners had in their possession
a large quantity of high explosives,
mechanisms for the manufacture OF
incendiary bombs and geodetic sur
vey maps Of sections of the Atlantic
seaboard.
The two men had been under con
slant surveillance for 10 days, and are
said to have been followed about the
piers Of steamships now loading with
wal munitions for the allies. This
fact has led to an unusual strutiny of
the packages delivered at the piers, as
it was feared that efforts would be
made to place bombs on board vessels.
One of the prisoners is Robert Fay,
"a years old, who said he was a ser
geant in the German army, and after
fighting in the battle OF the Marine. he
come to this country. He refused to
say anything further about himself at
the first hour of questioning.
The other prisoner is Walter Schoiz.
a brother-in-law OF Fay, who said he
had been in this country seven years,
but who it was said had been a serv-
ant in the kaiser's household. When
Guy Scull. fifth deputy police com
mander, was asked about this he re-
fused to answer the question.
Mr.. Scull, with Capt. Tunney OF the
anarchist squad and William j. Flynn.
head of the secret service, led a squad
OF detectives to Weehawken and went
to No. q Fifth street, in a lonely sec
ton. In the rooms they had rented
less than 10 days ago from a man
named Haberson, the detectives found
a store of explosives large enough to
sink many steamships.
