Pro-German Affiliation.

Petrograd, Sept 19.-Dr:- Judah
Leon Magnes. noted New York rabbi.
was barred from Russia not because
he was a Jew, but because his pubic
utterances had classified him as pro-
German.
Attorney Henry Sliozberg, leaolle

Isra elite worker, made this statement
TODAY. He explained why Dr. Magnes

HUNT HUSBAND NOW
Mother-in-Law and Wife Have Found
Jiney Drivers Car.

Gasoline tank empty. a tire flat and
the engine out of commission, the
Ford l.. c. Feuch is charged with
stealing in a warrant issued from the
court of Topeka, was found in the
weeds near the south end of the Santa
Fe bridge. The car belongs to Mrs.
B. E. Sweet, mother-in-law of Feuch,
and it was thru her efforts that the
warrant was issued calling for Feuch's
arrest.
Feuch had been using the Ford as
jitney and Mrs. Sweet told the county
attorney he bought it from her agree
ing to pay her $50 a month, but had
paid nothing. When he and the Ford
disappeared Sunday, at the same time,
she concluded he had stolen the car.
Mrs. Feuch, her daughter, was also at
the office of the county attorney.
The Sweet-Feuch car has something
of a history. 1t is said to be the same
car in which Velma Swearingen and
Ruth Lane were riding when struck
by a street car, September 2, and the
same car in which Raymond Lyle re-
ceived injuries. The search for the car
has now ceased and Mrs. Sweet and
Mrs. Feuch are looking for Feuch.

MOVE KAISER QUARTERS
From West to East Front to Meet
Greater Crises.

London, Sept. IA Berne wire
less dispatch today states that the Ger
man great general staff has been
moved from the western to the east
ern front.
The great German headquarters
which directs operations on all fronts
and at which the emperor and chief
of staff spend much of their time, was
IN Belgium in the early weeks of the
war and subsequently was moved to
northern France. In the spring of
1915 it was in a town near Lille. Ac-
cording to unofficial reports it was
transferred later to a small village
further east.
Since the appointment of Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg as chief of
staff, it has been reported that he de-
sired to leave in France and Belgium
sufficient men to hold the line and
devote his energies to the east for he
is credited with the belief that it is
on this front that the first conclusive
victory must be won. Last week he
returned from France to the eastern
front.
1t was also reported that Emperor
William, Chancellor Won Bethmann-
Hollweg and representatives of Aus
tria- Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey
were at the eastern headquarters for
conference which was to decide the
shaping of the campaign in the east.
