How the Former State Auditor
Would Save the state $500
coo u Year.

Pierre, Feb. Am annual saving
of $500, goo to the state of South Da-
kota can be accomplished by the cor
rection of lax business methods, says
II. b. Anderson, former state auditor,
In a reply made to an inquiry by Rep
resentative Weller. Copies of the
letter have been received In Pierre.
Anderson's first saving would be
made In the state school department.
He proposes the abolition OF all the
state normal schools and their cen
t%ralization in II school at some
point near the center of the state.
This, he says, would save half the
present cost of operation, which he
estimates at s753,619.57 for the last
three years.
Cost of operation of the state uni
versity, agricultural college and
school of mines for the three-year
period he places at $1,84S, $500,
but he does not recommend consoli-
dation of these.
Abolition of the state tax commits
sion, which he says cost the state and
counties over $4,000 last year, and
the wiping out Of the state game de
partment are among other recon-
mendations to effect the half million
dollar saving.
Mr.. Anderson next would do away
with all the present boards govern
ing the various state institutions by
placing all such institutions under
the control of a commission of three
men. A great economy can be eff
fected in the matter of rail mileage
and hotel expenses by such a step. he
says. He urges also a constitutions
amendment to authorize this board
or commission to levy special taxes
for each of the state institutions.
He wants a state printing plant to
print not only all of that class OF
work for the state and its institu-
tions, but schoolbooks as well, which
he asserts will be a saving of at least
$4,000 a year to the people on the
sale OF schoolbooks alone. and a large
saving on printing work.
He would have all state supplies
for all institutions purchased by a
state agency IN competitive bids.
which would be another saving.

ficials to turn In all their receipts to
the state, and depend upon the legis-
lative appropriations for mainten-
ance of that department, as another
item.
Another saving would be the re-
peal OF the Richards primary law,
which he lists at a cost of from $780,
600 to $4,000 each two years to
the state.
He insists that state officers pay
too much for travelling expenses, and
that a saving could be made in fur.
Their eurbing their wandering habits
outside the state boundaries, anc
within as well.
He is radical in his complaint o.
the cost to the state of the miscell

a large amount of extravaganza, ant

does not take steps toward eliminat
ing this class of funds. he will carry
that issue to the people in the mex

BURIED ALIVE
old Men Summarily Disposed OF M
Odd Fellows Home.

Yonkers, N. Y, Feb. 9.-To the
German odd Fellows home here had
been put to death because they were
aged and required much attention.
was added the suggestion that two
other inmates might have been
buried alive while under the influ-
enee Of an anaesthetic. 1t was believ-
ed that at least two of the bodies
would be exhumed.
The prone began an investiga-
ton of this suggestion. There was
little tangible for him to work on,
except reports founded in the fears
of the present inmates with whom he
held a long talk. The New York un-
dertakers, who took charge of the
bodies. were to be questioned as to
what steps they had taken to make
sure that life was extinct before
burial.
Henry Blum, an embalmer, ques-
toned by the coroner, confirmed a
statement imputed to Fred Mors. a
former nurse, who told the district
attorney he had caused the death OF
three inmates, in relation to the
death of Henry Horn, December 20.
Blum told the coroner, 1T was said,
that when he took charge of Horns
body, he noticed a burn on the mouth
and asked Mors about ii and that
Mors explained ii had been made by
a cloth saturated with anaesthetic
tied about the face to hold the mouth
shut.
The bodies of all the eight inmates,
Mors said. were put TO death and en-
balmed before burial. according to
Blum.

GERMAN PRESS is PLEASED
Approves Admirsity's Plan OF Extend

Berlin. Feb. 6.-The entire German
press greets with satisfaction the ad-
miralty's declaration that the waters
surrounding England, Scotland and
Ireland have been included in
the war zone. The headlines of sew
eral papers speak of the announce
ment as a blockade. The Post de-
clares II is a blockade and must be so
considered.

Germans Concentrate Attack
on the Russians.
ARTILLERY IS USELESS
Opposing Forces Packed So Close In
Small Space That Big Guns Cannot
Be Used-Whoie Companies Exter-
minated in Desperate Conflict.

P%etrograd. Feb. 6.-Not since the
battles around Lodz, in Russian Po-
land, in the early part of December.
have the Germans delivered such vi
cious attacks as those Of Thursday,
when they attempted to break through
the Russian line near Borjimow. Prob
ably never before In the eastern arena
of the war have they concentrated
such a force upon a single point.
In a distance OF six miles between
Humin and Borjimow the Germans
threw 105 900 infantrymen, together
with a heavy force OF cavalry, the
whole supported by 100 batteries OF
artillery, comprising in all no less
than 500 guns. 1t is estimated that in
this short line there were nearly go,
900 men to the mile, coming on i'm ten
or twelve lines He the waves OF the
sea.
Artillery 10 Useless.
The Russians, warned by the at
tncks of previous days In this same
vicinity, have concentrated correspond
ingly heavy forces to resist the Ger
man advance. So close were both sides
packed In this narrow space that the
artillery became practically useless.
The battlefield was a fiat plain, un-
obstructed by either trees or houses.
The latter already had been demol-
ished by shell fire. The Russians met
the German advance with rife fire
and the bayonet, the first lines strug-
Cling forward and backward from
trench to trench.
At some places the trenches were
only a few hundred yards apart. The
closeness of the line made the night
ing extraordinarily s%anguinary. Whole
companies were exterminated.
