General DukhOnin
Is Murdered By
.Hfuriated Mob
fRx Review Leased Wirel

PETROGRAD, via London, Dec. A.
british Admiralty. per Wireless
Press. AN official announcement
was issued today signed by Ensign
Krylenko, the Bolshevik commander
in-chief, confirming the killing by in
furiated members of the Bolsheviki
of General Dukhonin, former command
er-in-chief of the Russian armies, who
recently was deposed because of his
refusal to request German army Off
cials to enter an armistice with the
Bolsheviki.
General Dukhonin was killed by be-
ing thrown from a train after the Boil
sheviki forces had captured head
quarters at Mohiley, where he had re-
manned after his deposition General
Korniloff, also a former Russian COM
mander-in-chief and who some time
ago started an unsuccessful revolt
against the Kerensky government.
fled from Mohilev before the arrival
of the Bolsheviki forces.
The text of the communication of
Krylenko follows:
To-day l entered into Mohilev at
the head of the revolutionary troops.
The headquarters was entirely sur
rounded without fighting. The last
obstacle TO the cause of peace has
fallen.
81 cannot be silent on the sad act
of lynch law practiced upon the for
mer highest commander-in-chief, Cen
eral Dukhonin. Popular hatred sur
passed the limits of reason, and in
spite of all attempts to save him, he
was thrown out of railroad train at
the Mohilev station and killed. The
flight OF General Konriloff the day be-
fore the fall of headquarters was the
cause OF this excess.
Il cannot allow the banner OF the
revolution to be stained, and il is
necessary strongly to condemn such
acts A revolutionary people are fear
ful in struggle but they must be soft
after victory"
General Dukhonin was dragged from
a train in which it was intended to
send him TO Petrograd and beaten to
death.

GERMANS CEASE
Their ATTACK
ON HA|CS LINE
(By Review Leased wire)

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRANCE. Dec. 4.TThe Germans up
, to noon today had not renewed their
attempts of yesterday to smash the
British front south of Marcoing. but
it seems improbable that the enemy
will allow matters to remain as they
now are.
The situation. therefore, is still one
that cannot be dismissed lightly. in
view OF the heavy concentration or
guns and troops which Won Hinden-
burg has brought to bear on this line.
There has been no change in the
respective positions of the opposing
forces since east night. Exhaustion
and the necessity of recognizing his
depleted ranks have undoubtedly fore
ed the enemy to pause for breathing
spell.
The ground won by the Germans
yesterday could in no wise compen-
safe for the shambles caused by Won
Hindenburg's disregard for the lives
of his men But it must be borne in
mind that he was playing for vastly
bigger stages than have yet been won.
In his latest attacks there were un-
doubtedly tremendous efforts to break
through with great possibilities OF a
drive out into the open such as he
engineered in Italy.
The situation today was much easi-
er for-the British. Yesterday was ad-
mittedly a rather anxious one, but
abundant reinforcements arrived. The
checking of the Germans incessant
massed attacks was due only to the
gallantry of the British soldiers, who
did not yield before fierce assaults
by greatly superior numbers.
In their stupendous efforts against
La Vacquerie the Germans swept for
ward in dense waves with absolutely
no concealment and were slaughtered.
During the. afternoon they delivered
a very heavy attack west Of Masnieres
and succeeded in smashing through
the British line, but an immediate
counter attack forced them to fall
back.
The opening fighting which has de-
veloped along the new battle front
has created an entirely new situation,
which holds out many possibilities
and now more than ever. involves the
question of generalship which may de-
eide the issue.

Cochise County Citizens Vote
Strongly In FAVOR of Good Roads;
Warren District Approves Is to I
Western Metal
Producers Will
Protest Prices
(By Review Leased Wire)

SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. A.
Whether on not western meal pro
duers will approve federal price fixing
of silver or any other metals appears
decidedly questionable in view of the
prevailing sentiment expressed this
afternoon at the opening session of the
ducers at the commercial club.
While no definite action was taken
in the matter. the spirited debates in
dicated a steadily growing sentiment
in favor of launching a vigorous pro-
test against government interference
in the metal market, especially with
reference 10 silver.
Oppose Profit Tax
Violent opposition was also express
ed to the excess profits tax law in its
present form. While expressing a
willingness to do their share towards
helping in the war, even the confisca-
ton of their own property, if need be,
the metal men insisted that the law
in its present form was discriminatory
and unjust TO the metal producers.
The proposition OF the Idaho Mining
association to the effect that the law
should be amended so as to- elimina ,e
all reference TO capitalization and to
provide for taxation on the basis on
which individual incomes is based,
met with strong support, but action
on this was deferred temporarily.
Want Legislation Deferred
In order that the various problems
might be presented to conference in
concrete form, committees were ap-
pointed to report tomorrow One COM
mittee is TO draft resolution bearing
on the excess profits tax, aho her is to
present data and recommendations re.
lating to the silver question and still
another is to present data and recon-
mendations concerning lead and zinc.
A telegram was sent tonight % Sec

committee representing the confer
ence can reach Washington.

King deferred his departure for Wash.

Christmas Mail
Is Arriving In
France; Reported
(By Review Leased Wirel

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Dec. 4.-Christmas mail for
the troops began TO arrive in the Amer
lean zone today. In one town aone
a thousand sacks were delivered. The
contents of most of them consisted
of packages of various sizes. Some
of the packages had written on them
open at Christmas" and similar in
scriptions.
The American postoffices have
made every plan TO keep the mails
moving from them to the positions
where the addresses are quartered.
Many Of the offices are small and it is
feared unless they are constantly kept
cleared congestion may result from
the heavy Christmas mail that is ex-
pected.

elated over the report that Lieut.. Col.

Even newspapers friendly to the

ed action idications that America in
clines to accept the consequences of
the Bolshevviki rule, and that France
and England will be left to carry on
the war alone"
