DOUBLE MURDER AT
 FRUITVALE, CALF.
Jacob Nogcl and Wife Beaten to Death by Burglars-Domestic Dis covers Bodies.

Oakland, Cal, Feb. 12.-Jacob Vogel, former president of the Citi- zens Bank of Fruitvale, and his wife, were found murdered today in their home in Fruitva1e, a suburb. They had been beaten to death by burg lars, who first trussed them up with ropes and Mrs. Vogels apron strings.
 The bodies were found today by Miss Rose Rist, a domestic, upon returning to the Vogel home after q night spent with relatives.
 MT. and Mrs. Vogel are believed to have been called to the door by two men, who seized them, bound their hands behind their backs and when they made an outcry, beat them to death. The house was ransacked in an effort to obtain a sum of money rumored to have been kept by the Vogels.
 The room in which the murder took place gives evidence that the aged couple offered desperate resistance Furniture was overturned and there was blood on the walls and floor.
 MT. Vogel was rated as very wealthy, owning property in a num- Der of coast cities

CABINET DISCUSSES
 UNITED STATES NOTES
To Germany and Elg an..-- Officials
 Make No Comment.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The note to American lives and property in the new naval war zone about the British Isles; and the note to Great Britain pointing out the danger to neutral shipping by any general use of the American flag over belligerent mer- chant vessels, were discussed at to- days cabinet meeting, but all admin istration officials refrained from com ment upon them.
 Secretary Bryan would say no more than that the United States had not yet been officially advised of the re- ceipt of the papers in London and Berlin.
 Publication of the text of the two documents produced widespread com ment among officials, members of congress and diplomatists, most of whom regarded them as the most em- phatic expression from the Washing ton government on the conduct of belligerents during the present war and presaging, perhaps, further rep rescntations on what seem to the American government violations Of the rule of warfare.
 Germany has now been inform ed that the imperial German govern ment will be held 'to strict account ability" by the United States for any acts which would cause the loss of American vessels or the death of American citizens. A warning that If such a deplorab ble situation arose" any steps it might be necessary Co take would be tawen to safeguard American lives, was contained in the note to Germany This was inserted 1t was explained. in the document in order that consideration might be given 'to the critical situation in re- spect of the relation between this country and Germany which might arise were the German naval vessels to destroy any American vessels" or cause the death of American citi- zens."
 that a general misuse of her vessels of tho American flag to escape the. consequences Of war would cast doubt on the real character of vessels en- titled to fly the Stars and Stripes and thus impose, it would seem. "a mea- sure of responsibility," on the British government if American vessels or lives were lost by the carrying out of the German proclamation of sub marine warfare.

DISCHARGES DAMAGE
 
 :. SUIT FOR $250.0O0
of Stories in Kleist Case Against Owner of Dacia Causes W Judge to Act.

New York, Feb. 12.--A jury try ing suit for s25o,ooo damages brought against E. N. Breitung, mil- lionaire owner of the steamship Dacia, by Max Kleist, who married Miss Juliet Breitung, the defendants daughter, was discharged today in the federal court because of the publica- tion yesterday of stories to the effect that kleist has been twice assaulted since his wife had ceased to live with him. The court held that publication of these stories would doubtless tend to influence the jury in Kleist's be- half. K1eist based his action on a1- legged alienation of his Wife's affec- tions from him by her parents.
 Before discharging the jury Judge Hand called to the witness stand newspaper reporters who testified that Kleist made yesterday, before the opening of court, the statements at tributed to him in the newspa pers concerning the alleged assaults. In discharging the jury the court directed that the expense of a new trial, if ordered, be borne by Kleist.,
 Kleist was quoted as saying yes terday that one of the assaults was committed in New York by gangsters and the other in a New Mexican mine owned by the defendant.
