CHAP|N WANTED TEN
 MONTHS TO PAY DEBTS.
Bankrupt, Would Pay Dollar for Dollar, But Credit
 Ors Doubt.

At a lengthy hearing given before Referee E. M Yeomans in the United States district court this morning Adolph Chapin, the Main street mer- chant who went into bankruptcy several weeks ago and who also con- oucted a store in Tariffville, offered to pay dollar for dollar.
 After being closely questioned on the stand Chapin declared that if his creditors would be 1enient with him he would pay them dollar for dollar, but he stipulated, they would have to wait ten months in which time he would secure the. necessary cash. As he could offer them no security on his notes his offer was refused and the eferee appointed a trustee and three appraisers for the bankrupt estate. George A. Stark, George l.. Damon and Albert Anderson are the ap praisers. The trustee is Samuel Menus.
 The continued hearing of Harry Alex another Main street bankrupt, was held before Referee Yeomans to- day, but at press time the hearing was not finished Alex is said to be willing to pay twenty-five cents on the dollar.

Berlin, Jan.

German forces occupied French positions near LaBoisselle, and in the Argonne, and the Germans are still contesting French advance near Pont-A-Mous- son.
 -, The textao the communication fol- lows:
 Tn the neighborhood of Nieuport yesterday there were artillery duels, but nothing else. No attacking move ments have been undertaken by the enemy in the last few days.
 British mines have been washe ed ashore at several places on the coast.
 Capture French Trenches.
 ' At LaBo Boisselle, north of Albert, our troops, who had again estab- lished themselves in the church yard of LaBoissele and in the hamlet to the southwest, attacked the French with the bayonet and drove them from their positions. We took prls- oner three officers and 100 men. Several French trenches have been captured in the Argonne Forest. The French attachments occupying them were almost annihilated.
 'The French attack on our posi- tions to the northwest of Pont-A- Mousson against hill which is two kilometres Ca mile and one-fifth) south of Velcey, advanced as far as our trenches. This fighting is still going on.
 Heavy Snowstorm Prevails.
 Tn the Vosges and in upper AL sace a heavy snowstorm and fogs have prevailed, interfering with the fighting.
 '"The situation in East Prussia has undergone no change. In northern Poland the Russians attempted an advance across a branch of the River Wkra near Radzanowa, but were re- pulsed. Nothing of importance has transpired on the Polish Vistula."

MORGAN AND WILSON
 TO HOLD CONFERENCE,
Believed Financier and President Will Discuss the Proposed
 Alaskan Railroad.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-J. P. Nor gan was on President Wilson's list of callers today. The financier de- clined to say in advance what matters he would discuss with the president, but declared that the principal object of his mission here at this time was in connection with a meeting of the ad- visory council of the federal reserve system, of which he is a member.
 Problems in connection with the Alaska railroad, with particular ref erence to the Copper River and Northwestern railroad, which MT. Morgan has offered to sell to the gov ernment for use as a part of the pro- posed railway to connect the Alaskan coast with the coal fields, was said to be one of the objects of MT. Morgan's S visit at the White House. He was to discuss the matter with Secretary Lane also.
 Under the law passed by congress authorizing the construction of the proposed railroad, the president was empowered to select the route and decide whether the entire road shall be built, or whether any existing roads be purchased as part of the system

IARMENIANS WILL
 CELEBRATE XMAS
Services in Observation of Christ's Birth and Baptism to Be Held
 at St. Marks Tomorrow.

According to the custom of the nationality tomorrow, January 19, will be observed by the Armenians as the birth and baptism of Jesus Christ. While the Armenians recognize De- cember 25 as the date of the birth of the Saviour their custom is to post bone it's observance to the nineteenth of the following month when a ser vice in celebration of the birth and baptism is held.
 Services will be held for these peo- pie tomorrow morning at o'clock at St. Marks Episcopal church and Der Masrop. a well known and efficient Armenian clergyman from New York, will he present to conduct the ob servance.
 As this day is so generally observed by the Armenians and they attend the services so religiously the foreman at the various local factories, employ ing men of this nationality, need not feel alarmed when they do not appear for beginning the days work. Most of the Armenians will not work tomor- row.

DEMOCRATS TO CAUCUS
 ON SHIP PURCHASE BILL
Senators to Pass Upon Num- Der of Amendments at
 Tonight's Meeting.

Washington, Jan 1S.-Chief inter- est in congress today centered in the outcome of tonights caucus of sen- ate democrats on the governments ship purchase bill, for upon it's ac- tion depends the fate of that mea- sure.
 Tonights caucus, the second one on the shipping bill is for the purpose of passing upon a number of amend ments. Democrats are divided over the form of the bill, vigorous oppo- stion having developed to the gov ernment ownership feature at Satur- day nights caucus. They are con- frOnted also with the unalterable op- position of the republicans who have anT-unced their intention of defeat ing the bill if possible. Some of the democrats believe, however, that if the government ownership and d government controlled steamship cor poration features are eliminated from the bill at tonights caucus the mea- sure can be passed and that it will have the support of progressive re- publicans.
 Another matter which the caucus will have to decide will be how much continuous time is to be given to consideration of the shipping bill to the exclusion of supply measures
 The suggestion has been made by some senators that two weeks be de- voted to debate on the measure now, at the end of which time if there is no better prospect of it's passage, it be abandoned for the present session.
