According to information secured
by the South Bend police department,
Ernest l.. Dodge, who pleaded guilty
to the charge of manslaughter Mon
day in the circuit court, has been
wanted for the last II yN2rs by the
police of Littleton, n. H., where, it is
said, he is charged with stealing a
team of horses. The information was
run down by the local police through
their Bertillon system. The infor-
nation had not been received until
after Dodge had been sentenced to a
term of from two to 21 years in the
penitentiary by Judge Funk.
Nothing had been Known as to
Dodge's place Of residence until word
came from Littleton, y. H., to the
effect that he had been a fugitive
from justice for IL years. 1t devel-
oped also that Dodge's father is a
farmer living near Littleton and that
son when the latter made an appeal
to him.
Dodge had been teamster and af-
ter being forced to leave his home
town he finally got work with a circus.
1t is said that he became stranded
in South Bend a year ago when he
became drunk and was left behind by
the circus. He followed his business
as a teamster and worked at odd jobs
until he became mixed up in the
drunken brawl in the west end and
was arrested on the charge of murder.

The general relief committee. re-
Gently appointed, is making every ef-
fort 20 cope with the unemployment
situation here and wisely urges that
whenever possible the relief for the
unemployed should be in the form OF
employment. The committee has sug-
gested that each snow fall should be
made TO furnish as much employ
ment as possible and asks that people
be required 10 slean their sidewalks.
While there is no ordinance by
which the prompt cleaning OF walks,
in districts outside the fire limits can
be compelled, / wish TO most strongly
urge upon citizens in these districts
the adoption of the above suggestion.
A spirit of cooperation at this time
will go far in solving the present
problem. Deny no man work who
applies for it if there are walks to be
cleaned, or any other work that can
be done about the premises.
LAS to the district within the fire

owners that there is a city ordinance
which requires that all walks be clear

after any fall of snow. and TO insist
that this ordinance be observed.
While unusual weather conditions at
times are such that ice is formed
which cannot readily be removed

remains that at ordinary times walks

vON H|NDENBURG
To STRIKE NEW
PLACE IN LINE
German Field Marshal in East
ern Command Masses His
Troops for Assault Between
TiISit and InSterburg.

! PETROGRAD, Feb. 9.-Gen. Mack
enzens army has ceased taking risks
since its left wing was forced adrift
/ last Friday from the strong position
at Kamion, north of the junction OF
the Bzura and Vistula rivers where it
had fastened itself for more than a
month.
The order to avoid more heavy
slaughter must have been imperative,
for in the final stage of the last assault
on BolimOw the Germans abandoned
several field guns as soon as they saw
that the Russian counter attack was
likely TO develop into a fierce infantry
battle.
This defensive seems to be con-
nected with a substantial movement
through Leneyza to Thorn of troops
intended to reVamp the important
German formations which are again
being moved into East Prussia
Some Poles who managed TO come
through this area describe great ac-
tivity on the part of the motor trans
port. Marshal Won Hindenburg, in
his supervising tours. never leaves his
car. but keeps his feet wrapped in
plaids owing to the gout
The Germans are using hundreds OF
squadrOns of motor trucks, each car
rying 20 men with three days rations.
They cover about l 6 miles an hour
All signs strengthen the belief that
Won Hindenburg will next try his bat
tering ram on the northern line in
East Prussia. between Tilsit and In
sterburg. Very heavy reserves are
being pressed behind this gap where
the Russians on Saturday repulsed an
attempt on the offensive side by the
eastern most German column which
a week ago was being forced out of
the forest region.
Kaiser i'm East Prussia.
The kaiser is said to have reached
East Prussia for this new develop
ment of the winter campaign. The
right flank of the German army is al
ready threatened by the Russian
strength in the extreme north of Po-
land where the cavalry is now spread
over a wide front
The Russians surprised and broke
thrap j ~ important German posi-
tion beside Lake Djela, west Of Rvpin
and captured, besides a number of
{ prisoners, an immense quantity of
barbed wire.
Dispositions of growing strength on
both sides forebode very heavy bat
ties between the Polish frontier and
KOenlgsberg
The continuous inflow of Austrian
prisoners is the outstanding feature of
the present Carpathian operations
The Russians have taken three i'm
| portant fortified positions in the Lat
orcz valley to the left of the main
| Austrian positions and have again
driven back the strongest AustrO-
| German army to the south of Beskids
! The Russian retreat into the open
country which preceded this victory
seems To have been followed as a
tactical maneuVer by the army OF
BukOwina. which is drawing back
| from the narrow mountain roads in
the hope of securing a decisive bat
| tie on a greater scale than was pos
sible during the recent slow progress.

ITALIAN SOCIALISTS WANT
TO JOIN ALLIES IN WAR

ROME. Feb 9.-Within the last 10
DAYS more than 1000 Italian socialists
have adopted resolutions urging the
government TO join the allies and in
tervene in the war. The pressure that
was becoming heavy before the earth
quake disaster is being again renewed.
While Premier Salandra have given
no intimatiOn that Italy win alter its
attitude OF strict neutrality, he holds
almost daily conferences with Min
lister of War Zupelli, whose efforts
have put the entire Italian army on
war footing.
Turkeys apology for the Hodeida
incident has removed one possible
cause OF war. but the Italian public
is insistent that this scountry must
regain territory now held by Austria.

Crime.

NEW BRITAIN, Conn. Feb. g.
Rev. Father Joseph Zerbris OF 81. An
dreWs Lithuanian church. and Miss
Eva MagIn, his housekeeper, were
murdered sometime last night, the
crime being discovered today.
There is no immediate clue as TO the
author Of the crime
The crime was discovered by Mrs
Anna Schnyder, a neighbOr whose
suspicious we're aroused when she had
failed 10 see Father Zerbris and his
hOusekeeper about the premises since
early yesterday. She found all doors
lecked and the windows secure. but
gained entrance through a cellar win
dow which she broke. She found the
body of Father Zerbris lying en- the
floor OF the front room. She found
the body OF the housekeeper at the
top OF the attic stairs.
Father Zerbris had two bullet
wounds through his heart and a cord
tied tightly around his neck. The
housekeeper was shot through the
mouth and the right wrist. The cords
were tied about her neck.
The rooms bore evidences Of q ter
rife struggle. So far as could be
learned today Father Zerbris was OF
friendly terms with all his parishiCn-
.ers. However. il was stated thai
about two years ago the priest re-
ceived several threatening letters from
New York city. which threatened
him with serious harm unless he gave
up $1,000.

1t is said that Kamnitzer's lawyer,

the trial in the city court was half

time and it was only through the
timely advent of Detective John Kues-

Tuesday morning that the identfica-
ton was corrected.
Conjecture On Outcome.
There was conjecture among law
yers as TO just what the outcome
would have been if the jury had been
sworn and the trial had proceeded.
Apparently it would have given the
defense the advantage of being able
10 dlscredit the witnesses for the
state. Patrolmen Rudynski and Czen-
kusch, by showing that they had iden-
tilted the wrong man as the man from
whom they had purchased liquor.
When the mistake was discovered
Deputy Pros. Nye insisted that the
case go out so that now the real de-
fendant can be arrested on new af-
fidavit and the trial will come up be-
fore another jury If the jury had
been sworn it is believed that the
case could not have been pressed
against Ferdinand KamnitZer mas
much as according to the warrant he
would already have been in jeopardy
