AL. the Germans Are
Not on Battle Front

BERLIN, SFeb. 3.-According to the
records OF the sick insurance Office
Of Berlin it appears that the with
tlrawaIs OF workmen from employment
in shops and factories for war duty
last year were far less numerous than
had been generally believed. Espe-
cially was the reduction slight in the
Youngest and the oldest classes OF
men subject to military duty. Thus
workmen between II and 20 years old
represented on January l, 1915, 16.2
per cent. OF all the names on the lists,
but BY October they had been reduc-
ed only to 1916 per cent. The reduc-
tion for the class between Al and 10
years was from s.s to rs per cent.
Even for all the classes subject to
military duty the average reduction
for hesnine months was only about 8
per cent. tits remarkable fact that
even now the class Of young men be-
tween 81 and 25 Isl larger than Sany
other one in the shops and factories
Of Berlin, constituting 1916 per cent.
of ali the names listed. X

SEATTLE; Wash, Feb. 3.-The Pa
cific northwest again today faced the
task Of battling with an almost IN
precedented snow storm which has
,paralyzed rail communication, disor-
ganized city life, held residents in
out lying sections, snow-bound, and
caused many thousands Of dollars
damage to buildings which were not
strong enough to Withstand the weight
Of more than two and a half feet OF
snow on their roofs.
With continued cold weather and
more snow in prospect the outlook
is not promising today for early re.
sumption OF normal conditions. All
roads are tied up by snow In the
mountain passes and railroad officials
have abandoned hope OF raising the
blockade until the storm ends. In
Seattle and other cities, street car
lines are completely blocked by snow.
Schools have closed and business is
practically suspended, awaiting the
end of the storm.
The greatest single losses from
the storm occurred in Seattle where
the dome st. James Catholic Cattle.
dral collapsed under the weight OF
snow yesterday causing damage to
the editlce Of $4,000.

Eyewitness Tells Z
How a Zeppelin Acts.

\ LONDON, Feb. 3-The testimony of
a resident Of a seacoast village in Nor.
folk during Mondays Zeppelin raid is
given as follows in the Manchester
Guardian:
About 5 o'clock in the evening /
heard noise in the sky above my
cottage and saw Zeppelin coming
down, rather slowly, at a steep angle.
1t then righted itself and cruised about
us II taking its bearings. 1t was OF
a grayish brown color, like a rat. All
the people Of the village came out to
see the air ship, which after circu-
lar movement along the coast dropped
bombs near some farm buildings in q
field and then made off. 1t was over
our neighborhood altogether for about
three quarters Of an hour and seemed
unable to find its course. A witness
who saw a Zeppelin over London IN
the last raid says that the present
one seemed twice as large.
