The note said Crones was sorry to be obliged to leave the good city of New York for my safetys sake but added you really are not clever at all Your detectives are looking for me and no one can catch me"
 The note addressed to the Chief of Police. New York" said also that Crores was at the Grand Central sta tior at 11:3S o'clock last night, and concluded with the sentence, thanks for your kindness"
 Although the Grand Central station had been under surveillance several days the police here declared they had not seen Crones or any one resembling him They said, however. there was no doubt in their mind that Crones was the owner of the note.
 Crones has written several letters to locdh newspapers since escaping from Chicago. but this was the first direct communiCation the police have re- ceived Extra precautions were taken

The Russian army which captured to cut off the retreat of the Turks, Petrograd dispatches report the cap ture, after heavy fighting, of the towns of Mush and Achlat, to the south.
 Along the Black sea coast Russian warships are harrassing the retreat ing Turks. The northern wing of the Russian army has captured the town of Widje and is driving the Turks back in the direction of Gumish Khaneh, which is on the road to Ire bizond, while large Russian forces are moving westward from Erzerum with the object of cutting off these Turkish troops before they can reach d new line of defense.
 The Germans have been operating vigorously against the British and French along the Yser canal in Bel gium to the north of Ypres. From the British 350 metres of position were captured and held, despite efforts to recapture it. After a heavy bom- bardment. the Germans attempted to cross the canal and occupy French positions and several groups did sue ceed in making their way to first line trench. The French, however immediately drove back.
 The British south of Loos in a lively engagement succeeded in mak- ing an advance to the edge of a mine crater held by the Germans. The French in Champagne, between the Mouse and Moselle rivers and tC the west of the forest of Apremont have bombarded successfully German positions while in the Argonne for est a mine exploded by the French ! shattered the German works. l That progress is being made by the Teutonic allies in the direction of Av. Iona seemingly is shown by the report that the Albanians who are fighting
 with them have occupied the town o 1 Berat, situated about 31 miles north
 east of AvlOna.

There were no casualties. Considerable damage was caused to outbuildings, of a restaurant and to two dwelling houses. Two naval seaplanes went up at l1:05 a. m, and pursued the raiders, but without result.
 Meanwhile, two other German sea planes were making for the Kentish coast. The first passed over the | Kentish Knock light vessel, dropping bombs in that vicinity at 1l:20 a. m l The last raider made straight for Wal
 mer. Reaching that town at 11:27 a | m., flying at less than 2500 feet, il 1 dropped six bombs and turned sharply 1 to the east
