NOTORIOUS PRISON
HOLDS 8 EXALTED
CULPR|TS OF CAR

PETRoGRAD, Oct. THE motor
ious Troubetskoi bastiOn OF the fort
ress of St Peter and st. Paul now
houses eight exalted culprits who are
awaiting the nations verdict. They
are General Rennenkampff, whose
record as a military judge in 1906,
during the attempted revolution, is
appalling in "frightfulness;" NJ.
Bieletsky, former director Of police
and accomplice of agents provocateur;
the reactionary former minister OF
the interior, NJ. Makaroff. who pro-
cured the election of a burglar to the
Duma to act as SPY; NJ. Sikremieff.
accused of serious offenses as chief
of the army motor supply office;
former Minister of Justice J. Chtche-
giovIteff, whom the late Count Witte
characterized as the "most clever.
most corrupt man in Europe" Prince
Alexander DoIgorukoff, the cavalry
commander seized last week as
supporter of General Korniloff: Cen
eral Voyeikoff, the former Emperors
palace commandant, and finally Alex
ander Protopopoff, once classed as
patriotic member OF the Duma, next
an oppressive minister of the interior,
and last the slave of the Monk Ras-
putin.
Prisoners Well Treated.
According to popular belief the bas-
tion cells are stone sacks" which,
being below the level of the river are
liable to inundation, but such is not
the case. The lower row, in which
there are thirty-six cells, is on the
ground level, but there are no prison
ers here, and the upper story. with
the same number of cells, is out of the
reach, of the recurring river floods.
From the condition of a vacant cell
the impression is gained that so long
as the iailer behaves considerably,
in the Troubetskoi bas-
tion involves no physical suffering.
The cell was not damp and the sani-
tary arrangements were modern.
From an examination of the prison
regulations and the statements made
by Assistant Governor Kurindin an

U. S. to Buy 100000
Bicycles for the War

Chicago, Nov. 17.-Within the next
six months, the y. S. Government will
purchase 100000 bicycles for military
purposes.
This information comes from Wash
ington by unofficial but absolutely re-
liable authority.
Col. George Pope, executive secretary
of the Bicycle Manufacturers Associa-
tion and Secretary Walter f. .Rinek, Of
the United Cycle Trades Directorate, it
is said, are to assist the government in
mobilizing this big number of BICYCLES
in so short a time-and under the ex-
isting shortage of materials, by conn
piing u list of all of the bicycle max
ers of this country, the location and
capacity of their plants, their position
to fill orders at short notice, and other
data. This list will be filed with the
Quartermaster' Department, together
with each bicycle manufacturer Is cata-
logs. In this way, the Quartermaster s
Department will be able to get rush de-
liyeries whenever necessary.
1t will also probably enable every
bicycle manufacturer to get part of the
100000 order, if the price satisfies
him, in view of the fact that not even
the combined output of several Of the
largest bicycle factories could fill the
100000 order within the specified time
without throwing their commercial
business out Of gear.

Having been on trench service prac-

five times wounded, he is now in Eng

Washington, Nov. 17-All allied

E. M. House will participate.

highest authority.

world are entitled to know exactly

its members are in Europe for the pur-
pose of determining how the war can

1t is necessary, however, to place a

factors that enter into the suestion of
making military victory possible. Com

of the allied powers is one of the
factors.

french SOLDIERS
! DELIGHTED TO GO
TO ITALIAN FRONT
Are Enthusiastic Over Chance
To Get In Mixup With
Germans In Open
By W. S. Forrest

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the French Armies in the Field
Nov. 17-Afire with enthusiasm, glad
to get out of three years in the trench
les to fight an enemy almost in the
open, Frances troops left for Italy
with a battle of the Name spirit.
Now that this tangible evidence sof
Frances aid to her ally has departed,
permission was granted today for the
United Press staff correspondent ito
tell something of the ardor with which
the French troops started.
They were like school boys son IA lh0i-
iday | saw them arriving lat village
on the main line railroad after long
marches that tested even their war
tried legs. They swept into the streets
halted, threw off their heavy march
ing kits and with never a stop for rest
began working like beavers to stow
their kitchens, camions, horses, tents
and other impediments into waiting
trains. They sang and ehattered and
whooped.
The Poilus were anxious to get
away. One detachment outspeeded the
others. They got aboard first, the en-
CINE chuckled with stentorian whuffs
and the train sailed out on the first
lap of the sixty hour journey, its hui
man burden happily packed aboard.
Not one minute was lost in backing
in second train. It, too, was loaded
and started with vim and enthusiasm.
Then came third, and the press
went on and on.
The most interested spectators were
a large group of German prisoners
working en- a nearby sidetrack. They
very soon learned from the shouting
French soldiers whore the loaded trains
were bound.
IF any evidence were needed of
frances morale and how her fighters
regard the war, the scene today was
sufficient. The troops had the morale
of the early months of the war. 1t was
a chance to fight-and to fight not
from rat-ridden, vermin-infested, stink
ing trenches-but this time probably
in the open. Officers and men alike
hailed the chance.

business between Jaarez and Eel Paso
will be suspended in case Villistas, re-
ported preparing to attack Juarez, sue
ceed in capturing the city.
Only four hundred soldiers constitute
the present garrison in Juarez and the
city was thrown into the widest excite
ment when the bandit advance guard
was sighted. Many civilians crossed the
Rio Grande to seek safety in Ell Paso.
Bandits along the river continued this
morning to fire across the river at AM
ericans travelling along the roads but no
casualties were reported.

How Long IIill a Battery
Last?

-
That depends to a
tremendous extent on
the quality Of the insul-
alton between the plates
1t is the insulation
that protects the plates
from contact with one
another--from short cir
cuiting---and perhaps
running the battery.
In perfecting Thread
ed Rubber Insulation,
Willard has developed
the sturdiest, most dur
able battery insulation
made---one which great
ly reduces the chances
of "broken down" insul-
alton.
And this important
factor in long battery
life is backed up by Will
lard Service, which will
test and fill your battery
regularly, give you good
advice in battery care,
and offers expert work
when you need depairs
or recharging.
