Wounded to Death a Cor pOraI Hands GrenadeS to a Companion to
 Make Use of.
OTHER INCIDENTS TOLD
Roman Catholic Priest and a Banker Are Most Popular Men in
 the Army.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY, April IS. Commanders of the American forces who fought in sev- eral days fighting last week with the French forces in Apremont Wood sector, are finding it difficult to pick out men who especially dis tinguished themselves.
 One commander sized up the sit uation by saying that every man acted like a hero. He gave a pa- thetic account of a young corpor- al, who, hit in the head by piece of sharpnel, with a grenade in each hand, gave these to a companion and said:
 I'm done for. Write mother Take these hand grenades; don't waste them" He then fell in faint and died in the hospital the next day.
 One of the most popular men with the soldiers is Rev. Desvalles, a Roman Catholic priest, of New Bedford, Mass, attached to the Knights of Columbus, who worked and aided the wounded at the front, braving all the terrors of shell and machine-gun fire, to help dress the wounds of those stricken on the field of battle.
 He passed cigarettes to the sol diers and afforded them untiring attention for the little details which count so much as they were being picked up and carried to the hospi- tals in the rear. -
 Another popular man is a young banker, formerly of Springfield, Mass, who was pressed into serv- ice as stretcher bearer. He was the smallest man in the outfit. Ar ter several trips he became exhausts ed and unable to hold the stretcher, his wrists giving out under the strain. He refused to give up, but had his companions tie the stretcher to his wrists so he would hold it until the journey to the rear was finished.

 The belief prevails here that the officials of the Hungarian min istry and the Austrian ministry have not been fully in accord with the plans of the Prussian military party, nd that the forcing from office of Count Czernin, owing to his alleged movement to feel out France on peace terms. brought affairs in the Dual Monarchy to head.

DATELESS.-Advices this after noon say that having been checked by the British on the more north ern front in the Ypres sector, the Germans have renewed heavy bombardment of the British front farther south between Labasse Can al and Nieppe Forest.
 It is suggested that the Germans contemplate another drive in this section in taking Bethune and cre- ating a new salient.
 This would give them three inn portant salients to maintain, the more southerly one with the point at Montdidier, reaching towards Amiens, the middle one with the wedge resting at Bethune, and the more northerly one with the point now at Bailleul.

TWO ADDITIONAL
COAL LINES; Is
LIB. BAGS SOLD

Two more coal lines were establish
ed under the Fuel Committees super
vision in the city today, and at both
places the police were called to check
the rush of coal seekers, who came
from all directions when the news
leaked out. One was opened at the
Hill coal yard on Fairfield avenue
and the other at the Vincent brothers
coal yard, where coal was doled out
in bags of rs pounds each. More than
400 families were accommodated at
each place.
The original coal line at the COM
mittees office, 142 Golden Hill st.
contained more than 1000 persons at
o'clock and during the rush one
woman tainted. She was treated at
the Manufacturers Liability Insur-
ance Co. hospital. The city ambu-
lance was called, but she left before
it's arrival.
The committee being supplied to
issue only 200 orders for quarter-ton
lots, more than 500 were turned away
from the office.
Fuel Administrator Siemon is
spreading the supply over as large an
area as possible and is again supplying
street pedlars. One hundred tons,
given by DeVer H. Warner from the
supply of the Bridgeport Gas Light
Co., was turned over to the pedlars
and it was quickly distributed in all
sections of the city.

ADMINISTRATION DRIVE
AGAINST VICE A JOKE

ing employed in this class of work
than by all the alleged white slavers
that they are supposed to catch.
1.-THE net sum total of Saturday
nights grand crusade was what?
Nothing but one conviction SO far,
and that was Cora Davis. All the 9TH
er cases had to be continued. The
gambling end of the crusade netted a
few penny ante games such as might
happen in the smallest towns, and
they gould surely have been cleaned
up without all the big noise and bally
hoo.
There is only one thing that sug-
gests a reason for the comedy and
that is a clumsy endeavor on the part
of the city and county administrations
to cover up, their tracks in the Baby
DolP affair. I might say, and with
out exception, such places were to a
| certain extent protected by politics
and when the police did their duty
they got in wrong. There will be no
crime wave now or at any future time
in Bridgeport whether there is light or
not. The city is clean, far beyond
any city the size of Bridgeport in the
country, and it is getting cleaner
through the tireless work of the de-
! ipartment'

the outlook for immediate relief is
very remote.
The captain of the McWilliams said:
1.-THE government ships are doing all
they can to clear the waters adjacent
to New York of ice, but as fast as the
fields are broken up it knits together
again and the only chance would be
for a favorable wind to spring up and
carry it out to sea. There is little
chance of much coal being moved by
water under present conditions as
captains are afraid to risk their boats
in the ice and shippers are not willing
to pay for the damage"
In conclusion the doughty skipper
said: ''I have been to sea all my life
and my service includes sealers, whal-
ers and other northern sea craft, but
in all my life 1 have never seen the
equal of this winter for pure cussed-
ness. The largest rivets in the hull
of ship are simply bitten off by the
ice and it is taking not alone chance
of losing the boat, but of going down
with her to venture among the ice
i packs which blockade the Sound and
harbors of New England"

danger the country, not merely the
life of East Prussia"
With regard to Alsace-Lorraine,
Herr Harden writes:
Neither Premier Lloyd-George nor
President Wilson believes Germany
is willing to surrender Alsace-Lor-
raine to France at the present mo-
ment, but what about Germany's at

FOR KILLING OF
TWO DIPLOMATS

Petrograd, Jan. 22-Premier Le-
nine and Secretary of State Bonch-
Burevitch have ordered the Red
guard and soldiers to comb the city
for ''the motor car with Red guards
and sailors who killed Shingaoff and
Kokoshkine." The murder of the
former ministers has created feel
ing of protest and revulsion among
the Bolshevik officials, who are anx-
ious to prevent the situation from get
ting beyond their control.
The Petrograd council of work
mems and soldiers delegates has
adopted a resolution of the strictest
censure of the murderers, declaring
it never could approve summary JUS
tice and that no crimes had been COM
mitted by those killed. The resolu-
ton urged all soldiers to search for
the murderers.
It has been learned that the sailors
who were among the assa ssins were
not part of a crew stationed in Petro-
grad, but had recently arrived from
Finland, where they had been at
tached to the Baltic fleet.
Four other members of the Ker-
ensky government. patients in another
hospital, were transferred today to a
