: FIRST sLfOW is STRUCK.

eh0NDON, Feb. 19.-Germanv- has
struck the first blow since her war
zone decree went into effect. A
French steamer was torpedoed in the
English channel by a German subma-
fine. She was able to reach port al
though badly damaged
Berlin newspapers commenting on
the Germany reply to the American
note reflect the feeling that there
must be no departure from the posi-
tion Germany has taken. The infIu-
ential Lokal Anzeiger says that 1--WE
Germans have resolved to fight with
out regard for the consequences"
The second of the British bi-week-
ly reports from the front speaks of
severe fighting near Ypres on the
western end of the battle line. Ger
man attacks gained possession of sew
eral British trenches which, however.
were won back subsequently,.
The Austrian troops are reported to
be continuing their victorious advance
through BukOwina, rolling back the
extreme eastern end of the Russian
line. London dispatch says the Rus
slams have now evacuated all of Buk-
owina. Official reports from Petro-
grad and Vienna speak of encounters
OF great severity in the Carpathians,
but apparently no decision is near. In
northern Poland the Russians are
making desperate efforts to stay the
German advance which drove them
from East Prussia, and the fighting
now in progress is described by the
Petrograd war office as reaching the
climax of stubbOrnness."

GOVERNOR NAMES NEW
MEN FOR HEALTH BOARD
Retirement Of DR.. Calvin
White Is Being Freely
Predicted

The appointment this morning Of DR..
A. c. Seeley, of Roseburg, and Dr.. A.
B, Mareellus, of Portland, as new mem
bers of the state board Of health. to
succeed DR.. A. c. Kinney, of Astoria,
and T. J. Higgins, Of Portland, whose
terms expired today, by Governor
,Withycombe, it is believed by those
who are in close touch with the situa-
tion, means the retirement of DR.. Gel
vim S. White, of Portland, as state
health officer DR.. Andrew c. smith.
of Portland, was re-appointed a mem.
ber of the board. The holdover mem
bers of the board are: DR.. w. B..
Morse, Of Salem; L. B, Pickel, of Med
ford; Il. A. Pierce, of Portland, whose
terms of office continue for two years.
1t has been known for long time
that the dove Of peace and harmony
had long since taken its flight from
the portal Of the board Of health and
that DR.. White was not in favor with
the members of the board, and this fact
was borne out by the fact that, at the
last annual meeting of the state board
of health no selection Of state hcaltll
officer was had, but the impression was
given out enormously that DR.. White
had been reelected.
1t is practically certain that DR..
White will be deposed as state health
officer and the appointment of DR..
Marcellus, of Portland a member of
the board, seems to be an indication,
according to those who are familiar
with conditions, that DR.. Marcellus will
be elected state health officer to sue.
ceed DR.. White The office carries a
salary Of $4,000 per year. The elee.
tion Of secretary, who also serves as
state health officer, will probably be
had at the next meeting Of the board of
health.
Concerning his selection of DR.. Mar
ccllus, the governor said
"Whle Doctor MorcelIus' profes.
sionol reputation in itself merits this
recognition, my special object in select
| ing him is to secure harmonious coon.
Grafton between the State and CITY
health organizations"
DR.. Marcellus is health officer Of the
City Of Portland, It is understood that
in the past at times there has not been
entire cooperation between the two de-
partments, and it is believed the COVER.
nor hopes to see more efficiency and
satisfaction to the public by having q
member Of the board officially connect
ed with the Portland health activities
1t is further suggested that the ap.
pointmcnt harmonizcs with the sugges
tion in the governors inaugural mes
sage, in which he advised the consoli
dation Of the state and City lubora
tories in Portland, to eliminate dupli
cation Of work.

was ransacked and several hundred dol
lars worth of jewelry was stolen.
An examination by w, f.. Gormley,
then coroner, and DR.. G. B. Jones dis
closed the fact that the hyoid bne in
Cherry s throat had been broken, indi-
eating that the woman had been strang-

Subsequent event showed that Drum
goole had grasped the woman by the
throat to keep her quiet. She had
leaped from bed. Both Drumgoole and
Raber said, after being captured, that
they did not intend to murder the wo-
man-ro5bory was their only motive.
Drumgoole s confession recited that Ra-
Der worked for more than five minutes
IN an attempt to revive her.
A good bit OF detective work by the
