The former Gallipoli commander frankly admits that his generals fail- ed to decimate
 ed to advance in order to spare their decimated troops, and tells how the men, many of them under fire for the first time, suffering agonies from lack of water, stood their ground until shot down. So intense was their thirst that men even Tapped up the drops of moisture exuding from the water-filled canvas bags carried by mules. Because there was no water reserves were not used when needed.
 Failure of the British government to send the 5O,OOO endorsements he had requested, caused the collapse of the Dardanelles enterprise, Genera Hamilton asserted.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-Rev. Reve. Slaughter, pastor of local church, has been indicted by the gra2d jury on the charge of having betrayed g young girl. The members of his con- grsgation, including the parents of the girl, upon whose testimony the indictment was returned, have cone to the defense of the minister and have secured his release on $1O,O0O bail.

The arrest of the popular minister on the seri ous charge has created sensation, but his friends believe that he will. have no difficulty in establishing his innocence.

BLAME GOVERNMENT .FOR THE HIGH PRICES
Portuguese Believe the Government
 Should Have Regulated Prices as Was Done in Germany.

LISBON, Feb. 2.-Despite the fact that troops are patrolling the streets of the city to keep order rioting of serious nature was renewed last night and several clashes between the mobs and the troops occurred. The people are demanding that the cost of living be reduced as they are unable to pay the high prices demanded by the dealers. Scores of bakeries were footed but no attempt was made to destroy the city by fire.
 The leaders of the mobs have been arrested and will be tried for melting riot, which, under the laws of Por- tugal is serious offense punishable by long terms of imprisonment.
 The starving people, who are un- able to obtain employment owing to the war having crippled all lines of industry in the country, are blaming the government for not taking steps to prevent prices being advanced by the dealers as was done by the Ger man government.

SAYS CHILDREN
 ARE |LLEG|TlMATE
Brother of Dr. MOhr Testif1es that Wife of Murdered Physician Had
 Duped Her Husband.

PROVIDENCE, Feb. 2.-The first week of the trial of Victor Brown and Henry Spellman, the negro defen- dants who are charged with having murdered Dr. c. Franklin Mohr, has produced some sensational evidence, and has shown that intense hatred ex- ists in the hearts of the relatives of the dead man against his wife who had been charged with plotting his death.
 During the trial yesterday after noon a brother of Dr. Mohr testified that the dead man had told him that Mrs. Mohr's two children were both illegitimate, one of them being the child of the Nova Scotia preacher who had caused the hrs. break in the hap piness of the couple.
 Commissioner Moulton of the Prov idence police testified that he had been present when the negroes con- fessed in police headquarters after their arrests, and that Brown had staled that Mrs. Mohr had purchased the motorcycle upon which the accus- ed slayers rode to and from the scene of the murder. She had also pur- chased the revolver which had been used to shoot her husband and had promised him 5000 to kill Dr. Mohr.

PREACHER CHARGED
 WITH SERIOUS CRIME
Charge of Betraying Young Girls Charges Believed False.

CHINOOK, Wash, Feb. 2.-A sen sation was created here yesterday when Rev. Alfurther was arrested on a complaint sworn to by a fifteen year old girl charging him with having ne- trayed her and other young girls whose parents are members of his church. ,.
 The parents of the girl who laid the complaint and majority of the parishioners are helping to clear the the preacher and have secured his release on bonds. The girls parents assert that their daughter has been wayward and is untruthful and that reliance cannot be placed in her state ment given to the police.
 It is generally believed that Rev. Alfuther has been guilty of no wrong doing and that the charge has been brought by representative of the li- quor interests who are trying to dis. credit him for his activities in the prohibition campaign. Prior to the election when the prohibition meas ure was voted upon, the preached had toured the state in the interests of prohibition and has since been sub jected to .indignities from the repre- sentatives of the liquor interests, and has received letters threatening to run him out of the country.

ID INVESTIGATE
 BRANDE|S FITNESS
Reported that President Wilson Has Declined to Withdraw His Ap-
 pointment to Supreme Bench.

~.s, Feb. z.-It is ru- mored in congressional. circles that President Wilson has declined to withdraw the appointment of Louis D. Brandeis whose name he sent to the senate for confirmation as jus |tice of the United States Supreme Court to succeed the late Justice La- mar
 The appointment of the trust buster' to the supreme court is meet ing with opposition from many of the Republican senators whose sympa- thies were with Richard Ballinger when he was forced out of Taft's cabinet as a result of his opposition to Clifford PinchOt's conservation pol icies as applied to the coal fields of Alaska. Brandeis Is given a large share of the credit for Ballinger's forced resignation.
 It is understood that Senator Wads- worth, chairman of the sub- judiciary committee, has started the investiga- tion as to Brandeis fitness to be ele- vated to the bench of the highest court in the land.
 After the Alaska coal land contro- versy Brandeis gained more fame by his efforts in the advance freight rate investigation before the Inter- state Commerce commission. Later he represented the people in the court cases by which the Illinois and Ore gon ten-hour day laws and the Ohio nine-hour day for women was tested in the courts as to constitutionality. During the past year. he has been connected with the Investigations of the New Haven railroad in which he opposed the monopoly.

SHIP PURCHASING
 BILL IN HOUSE
Measure for Initial Appropriation of Fifty Million Dollars IntrOduc.
 ed by Rep. Alexander.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. D. Representative Alexander of Missouri. has introduced ship-purchasing bill in the House which is a slight modi- fication of that favored by Secretary McAdoo during the last session of congress but which was defeated when many of the Democrats voted with the Republicans against the measure.
 r The bill introduced by Alexander provides for an initial appropriation of fifty million dollars by congress and the formation of a corporation in which the government would own the controlling interest, to build or lease ships in order to provide vessels for handling the commerce of the nation, especially to South American coun- tries.
 In speaking on his measure Alex ander declared that American consuls in every South American republic had complained that during the past year sufficient vessels had not been pro- vided to care for the growing trade with the United States.
 It is believed that the bill will be made an administration measure as it Is known to have been approved by several members of the cabinet before being introduced into the House.
