 Also on this circular was a letter written by Father Zebris to Joseph Kovas, organist of St. Joseph's church in this city. This letter de- nied that the writer. Father Zebris, was to speak at the meeting. and also stated that the writer would never consent to speak on the same plat form with a socialist

 Waterbury Police Get Busy.
 The Waterbury police have been In communication with the local police ard their detectives are Investigating that end of the case. Superintendent Beach stated that there was prob ably some Waterbury connection with the double murder, but he would say nothing further, adding only that there were more Lithuanians in Wa terbury than in any other three or four cities of the state. The police are making an investigation regarding the controversy arising over the meet ing held in the Green street hall last Sunday night. It is said that they are anxious, too, to have a talk with F. J. Bagocius of Boston, who was the prime mover in calling the meet ing. Bagocius is said to have been very indignant when the circulars were distributed by Organist Kovas, on which was the letter written by Father Zebris. Bagocius is said to have left this city Monday morning. He is the man who was nearly mobbed at 103 Green street some m onths ago when there was almost a riot at the hall.
 Organist Kovas says that Bagocius was the real cause of the controversy over Sunday nights meeting, as, k Kovas says. it was Bagocius who printed and distributed the hand bills stating that Father Zebris was to speak.

GERMAN LOSSES IN
 POLAND 45,0oo DEAD
Claims Report Of Fighting on
 Ezura and RaWka Fronts.

London, Feb. II. 12:44 D. m.--The situation in the eastern arena of the fighting Is occupying the attention of the military authorities in Berlin in very large degree, If reliance may be placed in news despatches reach- ing London from the continent. Ac- cording to these Emperor William re- turned hurriedly to Berlin from the Polish war theater and at once held a prolonged military conference, sum- moning for this purpose General Non Moltke, Count Non Aulenberg, Gen. eral Won Kessel, and numerous other well known leaders. According to the correspondents of certain neutral Danish newspapers Emperor William firds the situation generally hopeful, but he is described as greatly de- pressed over the terrible cost in men Germany has had to pay in return fpr com paratively- limited advances against the entrenched Russians. One
 sf9ant reaching Paris by way of
 ArsaNv places the German losses on
 de Bzura and the Rawka fronts at 45,000 dead. This report. however, is absolutely without confirmation.
 Nevertheless, Danish military critics say Emperor William has pro- ltSled against lnlS SlduSnIeT, ana that as a result an effort will be made by the German war staff to transfer the fighting to some point where the Rus sians are less formidably entrenched.
 Russian Reports Optimistic.
 The Russian reports of the fighting from the extreme north to the ex- treme southeast of the line through Poland continue to be optimistic. The loss to the Teutonic allies of some ground in Bukowina appears to have been more than offset by what the despatches from Petrograd de- scribe as the strategic improvement of the Russian gains in the Carpa- thians.
 The British press finds much cause for comment in the Austrian official admission that The fighting is heavy

WILSON NAMES WEST
 TO GO TO MEXICO
Presidents Personal Envoy to |R'
 Vestigate Affairs in Republic.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 11.-DuvaI West former United States district at- torney at San Antonio, Texas was se- lected yesterday to go to Mexico as the personal representative of Presi- dent Wilson. Secretary Bryan an- nounced MT. Vests selection. The mission is similar to that of Paul Miller, who some time ago conferred with the various leaders and returned to this country with his reports.
 MT. West carries no written in structions, but is commissioned to make general inquiries into the con- ditions, interview the principal lead CTS and make clear to them the posi- tion of the United States government with respect to the protection of for eigners and their interests. The presi- dents envoy will go eventually to Mexico City, there to cooperate with the Brazilian minister, who is caring for American interests and Consul John R. Sillman. It is understood that while Mr. West will point out the growing necessity for permanent settlement of affairs in Mexico, he does not take any plan or suggestions from the United States. He has lived a number of years in Mexico and is understood to be generally familiar with the situation in the southern re- public.
 Leaves for Homo.
 After conferences with President Wilson and Secretary Bryan MT. West left last night for his home in San Antonio, Texas, from which point he probably will go to Vera Cruz to talk with General Carranza
 News of the military situation in Mexico reaching the state department today was brief. Further reports of the defeat of the Carranza forces at Monterey were received with the in formation that about 1000 wounded troops had been put on trains and sent from the scene of the battle to the border.
 Work on the Qualifications around Tampico is proceeding energetically, according to a departm ent telegram in anticipation of an attack by Villa forces. The gunboats Zaragosa and Libertad have arrived with additional Carranza troops from Vera Cruz. En- rique C. Llorente, Washington repre- sentative of General Villa, received d telegram from, the latter saying he had captured a station just in front of Guadalajara and expected to retake the city from the Carranza forces within another day or two As soon as this city is taken Villa intends to ! concentrate on Tanpico, planning not to move on Mexico City until the north is completely untier his con trol. Famine Conditions Worse. In the meantime the famine condi- tions in Mexico City are growing worse The following report of the situation there was received last night:
 There continues to be a shortage of the bread supply and it is said that there was recently noticed a bread line in which there were about 300 waiting their turn. According to reports the scarcity of bread and water is greater than it has ever been before.

 mcnt Regarding Incident.

WATERBURY POLICE
 SEEK FOR MURDERER
Rev. zebTis Once Lived There;
 Officials are on the Jump.

Excitement in Waterbury, which has been at a high pitch ever since the report of Father Zebris' murder was received there. was raised to fever heat in the Brooklyn district yesterday when a report became cur pastor of St. Joseph's Lithuanian church. had received threatening let tcrs from people who are not in ac cord with the teachings of the Catholic church. These reports were discussed in connection with the talk about the murder of the Rev. Joseph Zebris and his housekeeper In New Britain Monday night, both former residents of Waterbury.
 Father Saurusaitis. when asked whether or not he had received threatening letters, was disinclined to talk but admitted that several m months ago he received some letters.
 The language used in the letters was too vile to repeat" declared the priest, "any anyway the letters were unsigned. I didn't pay much atten- t;cn to them.' He declined to say whether or not the letters contained threats on his life.
 Tn speaking about the New Britain murders, Father Saurusaitis said that no one had any idea who committed the terrible deed Asked if he had lead the hand-bills gotten out an- ncuncing Father Zebris as one of the speakers at a meeting in this city said to have been held under the auspices of Lithuanian socialists, so-called any way, he said he had seen the bills.

it is evident that both sides find the 1 fighting among snowcovered passes; with only the most precarious con- nection with their sources of sup plies, a warfare in which the results gained are very dearly bought. Russians Threaten Instcrburg. Tn the extreme north, where the Russians have been conducting a flank movement against the forces of Emperor William in East Prussia, the situation is becoming clearer. The Germans have rushed heavy rein men they expect to be able to stay the Russian advance. The Russians, however, already would appear to be in position threatening sterburg, from which German town the popula- tion is reported to have been advised to depart until the present military operations are concluded.
 In the western arena of the war the fighting for the past few days has been of relatively small importance, and the promised big effort of one side or the other is still delayed pend- ing the advent of more favora ble l weather conditions.
 Situation in Balkan States. The situation in the Balkan states appears to London observers to be | ra pidly crysta llizing. Bulgaria will receive a large consignment of her German loan within the next few weeks. Rumania is findn;: that Aus trIa Hungary is clamorn- for q definite statement of her attitude. Neverthless, sh shows no disposition prematurely to reveal her intentions, and the entente powers, Great Brit ain, France and Russia, seem to be quite satisfied that Rumania's ulti- mate action will be on their side.
 French Capture Hill.
 St. Omer. France, Feb. 8, via Paris, Feb. II, 6:45 a. m.-1he capture of the hill of Notre Dame de Lorette by the French has been announced a& headquarters here. The hill, which dominates the entire region, has been fierccly disputed for weeks.
 A position captured by the British close to Niolaines Station was one of considerable importance, as it over- looks La Bassee. The Germans made several attempts to recapture 1t, but their troops held strongly fortified lines and repulsed these attacks with heavy slaughter.
 The British captured on Sunday night two trenches near Festubert. taking 800 prisoners who belonged ap- parently to the newest class of German recruits. Nearly all of them were young and wore new uniforms.
 Russians Make Gains.
 Geneva, Via Paris, Feb. II, $40 a. m.--The battle which began in the Carpathians on February is still raging furiously along a front of sixty miles from Mount Polonina- Runa to Mount Mako, according to the latest information received here In the Mezolaborcz region, General Dankl is said to have been obliged to send endorsements to extricate q Hungarian corps which has been al- most cut off.
 The Russians are reported to have gained several miles in the valley of Lyutta, which borders the northern slopes of Polonina-Runa, and also a6- vanced a half mile in the valley of Laborcz, where the railroad passes In an assault by the Russians upon Austro- Hungarian trenches 1,s00 men are said to have been killed and wounded in three hours bayonet fighting.
