KILL TWO AGED
 MEN DEFENDING
 NEIGHBORS' CASH

CoV1ngton, Ky, March 6.-With one bandit dead and a suspect in custody the police of three cities Covington and Newport, Ky, and Cincinnati, O., are searching the river front for the third member of the gang that held up a meeting of the Ninth Ward Building association of Covington last night and killed two of the directors and wounded a third, the latter the chief of police of Covington. One of the bandits was killed by Chief Kleumper after he had shot down the two directors, Andrew Nordmeyer, 6S. and John Rehm, S3. Nordmeyer was president of the association.
 The six directors of the association had just been called to order by Pres ident Nordmeyer when the three ban dits leaped into the room and with drawn revolvers demanded the money on tho table, which amounted to about s2,5OO. Rehm attempted to hide the cash box and fell across the table dead, with a bullet through his head. The other directors made a wild rush for safety, as all three of the bandits had opened fire with their revolvers and Nordmeyer fell into the arms of his son, also shot through the head. Chief Kleumper, in civilian clothes, returned the fire and was shot through the cheek, but not before one of his bullets had reached the heart of one bandit.
 When the bandits dashed from the place they shot their way through the crowd in front, attracted by che fir ing, to an automobile.

 MT. Redmond passed away peace fully at 7:45 o'clock this morning. Death was caused by heart failure following the operation, which was for an intestinal obstruction. This was borne courageously and it relieved the patient, but heart failure intervened on Tuesday night.

POPULA TON OF PETR0GRAD IN FLIGHT
FOUR TORPEDOES HIT VESSEL OFF
 PORT IN IRELAND

Belfast, Saturday, March 2- The British liner Bulgarian has been tOrDedoed off the Irish coast. There were 61O persons aboard, nearly 500 of whom have been landed at an Irish port. The Cal garian was struck by four tor pedoes. Two officers and 46 men were lost.
 The Allan liner Bulgarian was a vessel of 17,515 tons gross. 56S feet long and 70 feet beam. She was built in Glasgow in 1914.
 The last report given out con- ceTning the liner was in April of 1916, when she sailed from Hali- fax for England with Canadian troops.
 A most unusual circumstance in connection with the sinking of the Bulgarian is the fact that she was struck by four torpedoes. In no previous case had a merchant man been subjected to such a heavy attack by submarines.

THIRD EXPLOSION AT CRAPHOPHONE
 CO.,, ONE BURNED

James Jacobs, 26, of LIP State street and a foreman in the making and grinding room of the Gpaphophone company on Barnum avenue, was se- verely burned about the face, hands and neck this forenoon when the gum and pulverizing machine, the belt of which he was adjusting, exploded from some unknown cause.
 This is the third explosion which has occurred at the plant of the Graphophone company, the two other blow-ups being the result of sabotage on the part of disgruntled Worknen who tried to force the company to re- instate foremen who were discharged. These explosions were disastrous in their consequences, as several work men were killed by the blasts which even threatened to wreck the build ings.
 There is a strong belief that the ex- plosion which injured Jacobs was the result of a conspiracy among the workInen in his department, but up to the present no definite steps have been taken along those lines, although the police will investigate the matter. Officiols of the company state that the explosion is a mystery to them, as the foreman was fixing the belting of the machine when the blast rocked the building and threw the workers into a wild panic.
 JAS soon as order was restored it was discovered that Jacobs, who had been hurled away from the machine, was terribly burned about the face, meek and hands and it was only the fact that he was thrown away from
 the machine by the force of the ex- plosion which saved his life. 1 A call was sent in to the Emergency
 Hospital which was answered by Dr. J. F, Keegan, who upon seeing the seriousness of Jacobs injuries ordered
 him removed to the Bridgeport hos Dita1

The shells were infrequent until late in the afternoon, when the Amer ican artillery livened things up a bit, firing on a town in the enemy lines where troops had been seen.
 Although the weather was bright and clear for the first time in several days, a mist arose from the snow and observation was obscured by the groDnd haze. Aerial forces took ad- vantage of the improved weather and operated freely. Groups of enemy planes came over for photographic work, but they were kept high in the air by the American anti-aircraft guns. Planes from the American lines alsS were out in force. In the trenches the men divided their time between watching the aerial opera tions and drying themselves cut in dugouts.
