WAR REVIEW
FOR THE DAY

The Roumanians have suffered fur.
ther reverses at the hands of General
Won Falkanhayn's invading forces, ac-
ment by the German war Office.
Taking total of more than 2,100
prisoners, and a dozen machine guns
operation carried mountain peak on
the Moldavian frontier of ROumania
east of Kedzivasarhely, penetrated a
Roumanian position in the Predeal
region and scored advances south OF
Rothenthurm pass, the statement
asserts.
Apparently the Russians are holding
their own well along the northern
part of the Moldavian boundary line
Berlin reports them withstanding the
AustrO-German attacks.
London reports a further success
by the British who last night renewed
their attacks in the extension of their
Somme offensive of the Ancre brook
A gain of ground along the north bank
of the river east Of Beaucourt is
claimed. Berlin declared a British
attack in this region last evening
failed. 1t records the repulse also OF
an assault on the Somme front west
of LIE Sars and announces that the
British were forced back westward
along the Thilloy road and lost five
machine guns.
Paris records no activity by the
French infantry in the Somme region
after yesterdays attack in which the
positions taken by the Germans in
the village of Saillisel were reclaimed,
according to last nights announce
ment.
Berlin declares the French attack
on both sides of the village of Sally.
Saillisel. but failed to gain.
The entente drive for Monastir,
which has forced the German-Bulgar-
ian defenders of this Serbian city
back upon it's inner line of defense,
apparently has halted. Berlin reports
the repulse of renewed strong attacks
by entente troops in the Cerna river
region and on the Monastir plain.

APPEAL
AGAIN BLOCKS
BRIDGE ORDER

The appeal of Jonathan Evans ct. al
from the awards of the board of public
works for property damage which
would be done by the building o1
South G. street bridge is still pending
in the circuit court
Attorney Wilfred Jessup who repre-
sents the Evans family, said today
that negotiations for the sale of the
property are still under way and that
it will be impossible for the case to be
tried for some time. r-.s
Now that the commissioners are on
the verge of calling for an emergency
session of the county council to pass
on the bridge appropriations, this pre-.
sents serious proposition.
The councilmen at the September
session made much-a-do about the
pending suit and there is much ques.
ton whether the appropriation would
be legal if granted before the suit was
settled.
It is feared that in case the commits
sioners decide to. ask for the appro-
priation for the south side bridge
again, as from indications they will,
the county council will refuse to grant
ii until the suit is settled.

Normal Conditions Prevail
Again Today After Drop in
Pressure Due to Misunder-
standing.
TALK OF STARTING
ARTIFICIAL PLANT
City Officials Inclined to Be-
lieve that Clever Idea"
Will Not Affect Pending
Suit.

Thursday when the natural gas
pressure, coming into Richmond from
the West Virginia fields, dropped from
normal pressure of approximately
$50 pounds, as indicated at the main
regulation station just east of Rich
mond. to about Is pounds, Supt. John
son, Of the Light, Heat & Power COM
pany became decidedly worried and
made arrangements for the operation
OF the artificial gas plant.
AT noon today, however, a normal
pressure again prevailed and Johnson
states that no more trouble is to be
anticipated.
Result Of Misunderstanding
"The pressure drop yesterday was
not the result of any shortage Of the
natural gas supply; 1t was the result
of Misunderstanding between the
pipe line company and the gas pro-
ducing company" Johnson asserted.
The gas pressure as it arrives at
the city's main regulation station nor
mally registers between 120 and $50
pounds. At this station the pressure
Is cut down to normal IL pounds
for distribution through the city's belt
line This belt line Is tapped at seven
places and at each tapping place the
pressure Is reduced to a normal Z
ounce pressure for distribution into
residences, business houses and fac
tories.
When the belt pressure is less than
10 pounds there is not enough pres
sure for distributing gas through the
city's low pressure pipes. Last night
this belt pressure dropped to pounds
and Johnson at once ordered all the
seven local regulation devices cut out
and the belt gas sent directly into the
low pressure pipes.
Pressure Above Normal
BY mercury regulator at the COM
pany's plant the direct current from
the belt was kept at an average pres
sure Of 8 ounces. one ounce more than
normal. in the low pressure pipes
throughout the night.
City officials were inclined to look
askance at the sudden droppage Of
gas pressure and the company's pub
lie announcement, yesterday, that the
artificial gas plant might have to be
called into service.
The city now has pending an action
In circuit court to set aside the state
public utility commissions "70 cent"
gas order on the ground that the
rates had been based on a valuation
of the companys property which in
cluded some properties not actually
used and useful in the distribution of

WANTS BOTH
OLD and new
PUBLIC JOBS
Will Endeavor to Retain
County Post and May Ac-
cept Strayer's Deputyship,
He Announces.

II consider myself as being in line
for reelection to the office of county
attorney" said Gus Hoelscher today.
Under no agreement am l bound to
turn the job over to another"
Mr.. Hoeischer admitted that he has
been offered the position of deputy
prosecutor. He said that he saw. no
reason why he should not hold down
both the county attorneyship and the
position Of deputy prosecutor at the
same time. :
Works for Public Largely
"I could devote almost all my time
to public law work in event l held
both Offices" said Mr.. Hoelscher. "The
combined salaries of the two Offices
would make this possible. The coun-
ty in this way could obtain better
results for its money than II one man
was appointed to each position"
It is understood that Hoelscher is
satisfactory to, Commissioners Seaney

Hoelscher Still Undecided
Hoelscher'' states that he has not
definitely decided to accept the dep
uty prosecutorship nor to seek re-
election as county attorney as he has
under consideration an offer to be-
come affiliated with an indianapolis
law firm as a member of the firm.
Prosecutor Frank T. Strayer
said today that he had offered the dep

regarded him as a man thoroughly
competent to. hold such position and

NO TEACHERS
in THE COUNTY
HOLD LICENSE
TO GET PLACE
County Superintendent Must
, Hold Three-Year License
to Be Eligible to Position,
Says Williams.

Nobody In Wayne county is quail
fled to take the position as county sup
erintendent Of schools which will be
left vacant by the resignation Of c. O.
Williams who has received the ap
pointment Of Deputy State Superin
tendent. This was made public by
Mr. Williams today when he was
asked about possible successor.
A three years state teachers license
for common schools which has been
earned by grade made in examina.
tion, is a requirement. The appoint
ment must be made from the residents
Of the county. No citizen of Wayne
county holds the proper kind of Ii.
cense.
Only One License
There are several teachers who hold
life licenses which were awarded them
when they were graduated from state
normal schools, but these will not do
Mr.. Williams will not leave for his
new position before March Is and it
will not be necessary for the county
board of education to appoint a sue.
cessor before March /. This will give
those who want the job, two chances
to make the necessary licenses
The next teachers examination will
be held the last Saturday in January.
It is anticipated that about fifteen ap
plicants for the position of county sup
erintendent will take the examination
on this date. A three years license
requires an almost perfect grade.
Because no one is yet qualified, it
is expected that no applications will
be filed with the county board of edu.
cation until after the grades for the
January examination have been made
public
The position pays $1,40O a year and
it is four year office. Mr.. Williams
second term expires next fall and in
June the county board of education,
composed Of all township trustees,
will elect successor. In March they
will appoint man to fill out the un-
expired term of Mr. Williams.
After a county superintendent is
once in office in this county, there is
seldom any competition against him
if he runs to succeed himself. Never
has superintendent been turned out:
they have either. died in office or re-
signed of their own accord.
