BELIEVE PRISONER is
YEGGMAN WANTED FOR
STRATFORD p. @. JOB

Through the efficiency of the Berti1-
lon system connected with nearly ev-
cry police department in the country,
one of the most desperate postoffice
robbers and safe blowers in the East
is believed by the police to have been
discovered in James Roach, now in
the Fairfield County Jail, awaiting
trial in the superior court on the
charge of burglarizing the drug
store of William G. Hamilton at 283
Noble avenue, about a month ago.
On viewing the BertilIon photo
graph of Roach at-ponce headquarters
State Policeman Rowe H. Wheeler to-
day said that it is his belief that the
prisoner is one of the gang of bandits
that blew =. the safe in the Stratford
postoffice a short time ago.
superintendent Eugene Birming-
ham received the Bertillon picture
and record of Roach yesterday from
the police authorities OF Philadelphia
and was asked to hold the prisoner
for the auth horities of that place as
he is wanted there for blowing a safe
in a post office in a suburb of the city.
The picture and measurements corre-
spond with the ones taken of Roach

TERRIFIC STORM
RACING in WEST;
TRAINS Rain TIED UP
Unusually Cold Weather Ac-
companies Heavy Snow
fall in Many States.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-The storm which
began yesterday in the middle west
continued today, snow, high winds and
low temperatures prevailing over Illi-
nois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebras-
ka, the Daketass Minnesota and Wis
consin. From the Canadian north
west there also came reports of unusu-
ally low temperatures. The thermorn-
eter at Prince Albert, Saska, went to
58 below zero.
According to meagre reports today,
Iowa, the Dakotas and Minnesota are
the worst sufferers on account of the
heavy snow fall and the low temper
atures- st. Paul reported 8 8 degrees
below zero, Hannah, N. D., So below
and Des Moines, Ia, 22 below. 4
Railroad traffic west of Chicago has
been seriously delayed and in many
instances trains have been abandoned.
AT Council Bluffs, Ia, more than 20
passenger trains are stalled.

cations with the west was virtually
shut off early today, all companies re-
porting that regular routes are out of

In this city the Thermometer was at
the zero mark and the prediction is for

SADAGUERA, IMPORTANT
AUSTRIAN STRONGHOLD,
IS CAPTURED BY ALLIES

London, Jan. 13-The news from
the Eastern front of the capture of
Sadaguera is regarded in military
circles as probably true although off,
ciaI announcement on the subject has
not been received. The town. which
lies a few miles to the northeast of
Czernowitz and is converging point
for five good roads, is of considerable
strategic Importance and previous at
tempts to capture 1t have found it
sfautly resisted by the Austrians. Ex-
perts say Sadaguera is really of more
Importance than Czern on ac-
count of it's stronger natural position
and the greater facilities which it Of
fers for communication purposes.
The report from Petrograd that the
offensive in GaIicia and Bessarabia
had been suspended for the present is
regarded as at least premature. The
Russian offensive which recently had
been in progress could not. it is be-
Iieved. be suspended suddenly as it
had been undertaken after careful

serve After killing the Americans,

foormed that troop trains have been
despatched by the Carranza author1-

pard today that the Americans had
been specifically warned to keep out

za's am mbassador here, delivered to
Secretary Lansing today a letter say
ing he ."deeply dep1ored the bastard
lv action of the Villa forces and CIV
ing assurances that the Carranza gov

mining men to resume their work IN
Mexico, state department officials SAID

ply from Carranza to Secretary Lans-
ing's representataions will be received
before tomorrow.

F. E. Stephenson, secretary of the.
mining and workmen,s association or
Chihuahua, who organized the party
that recovered the bodies said that
the heads were almost blown off
t"They were stripped of clothing
before being dragged out of the cars
and killed., said Stephenson. when
we arrived at the scene of the mass
acre a Carranza guard remained at
Santa YsabeI where we found a num-
Der of the bandits encamped. We
returned to the troop train to get
a machine gun and then proceeded to
the place where the bodies were
heaped.''
An expedition which left Chihua-
hua City to recover the bodies of the
1 9 slain Americans were informed by
the station agent at Santa Ysabel that
Benjamin Smell and Frank Woods
passed there bound west, half an hour
after the Watson train was reported
in trouble. The station agent said he
warned the two men to return but
they said they were armed and fear
ed no trouble. Nothing later was
heard of the party and 1t IS be1eVeCt
that they met the fate of the Wat
son train.
General Jose salazar, former Mexi-
can army officer. is in hiding today
fearing reprisal by American mining
men. It was reported that a party
of 20 Americans called at Salazar's
hotel last night. Shortly after the
arrival of the Americans the chief Of
police and county sheriff appeared at
the hotel with a posse of policemen,
deputy sheriffs and detectives
The Americans left after they were
told that Salazar had been smuggled
out of the city. A demonstration
caused all the hotels to send away
their orchestras of Mexican musicians
while plain clothes men mingled In
the crowded lobbies where resentment
against Mexicans was pronounced.
Medinivfets, former chief, Of staff
of General Villa, now a prisoner in
the city JAIL here charged with bring
ing stolen property into the United

osa in western chihuahua.

cal BertiIlon bureau.
Federal authorities have been in
this city for the last two days in an
effort to get clue to the identity
and whereabouts of the gang of ban
dts that. blew the Stratford safe and
they now believe that they are on
the right trail.
49, Roach will be put through rigid
cross examination after he is tried
in the superior court, in an endeavor
to connect him with the Stratford
job. Should this effort prove unsuc-
cessful he will be returned. to the
Philadelphia authorities and there
prosecuted for a safe-cracking job al
legged to have been performed there.
The BertilIon card connects Roach
with a similar job in Philadelphia,
about two years ago.
At the time of Roach's arrest in
this city policemen said they detect
ed him in the act of robbing Han1iI-
tens drug store at 283 Noble avenue.
In his possession were found guam
ttty of U. S. pastage stamps, which
were missing from the sub station.
This is a Federal offense.

RAILROAD TERMINAL IS
 BONE OF CONTENTION.

It is amusing to note the friendly spats between Seward and Anchorage as to which is the terminal of the government railroad. Seward trium- phantly points to the fact that no yes sells will get into Anchorage for the next five or six months as conclusive proof that the new railroad town is barred by nature from making any claims as the terminal city. In both Seward papers, however, are accounts of a gigantic snowslide, estimated to contain 5O,0OO yards of snow, which has closed the line to traffic, and which will not be removed until next spring, because another one is likely to occur at any moment. This, to an unbiased outsider, would seem to take a great deal of weight from Seward s claims and leave the railroad with out any terminal whatever.
