CHICAGO Horse Market.

Chicago, March '12.-Trade in horses
was not as brisk as it was week ago,
there being only few buyers at the
auction. The private sales, too. were
few. The traders present were mostly
from the east and south, and while
they needed horses, yet the offerings
were fairly heavy, and they just picked
over the stuff, and demanded good
prices.
Receipts OF horses are estimated at
1000 head. compared with 1,123 last
week, 1905 a year ago and 1,037 two
years ago.

No farmer with five COWS or more
should be without one, he said.

the increased need Of wool and food
and because sheep could be raised
cheaper than any other animal, farm
ers of Indiana should raise them.
Tuesday, Schwab lectured on the
good points of breeding hogs. He used
three hogs as examples.
G.. NJ Frier addressed the farmers
on Patriotism in Action on Indiana

CONGRESS Cheers at
Presidents Promise
to Redeem Alsace

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Although
the Presidents address today was
punctuated literally by applause there
was one great demonstration when he
declared that France must have right
for wrong IN Alsace-Loraine. At that
the entire assembly arose and ap-
plauded and cheered loudly.
Otherwise the presidents address
was delivered in the silence which de-
notes the rapt attention of an audi
ence which realized that 1t was pass
ing through a great % minutes in the
life of the world.
Instant and enthusiastic praise was
given generally in congress. Leaders
and rank and file joined in expression
OF emphatic approval with few reser-
vatlons 1t was the general opinion
that the presidents address had posi-
bilities of fastening peace and influ-
encing the Russian negotiations, which
at the same time concretely giving
peace terms and endorsing Lloyd

Enlistment in Navy Finds
Mother for John" Puddy

DALLAS, Texas, Jan. S.-The desire
to serve his country and wide publica-
ton of a dispatch from Dallas two
weeks ago that he did not know his
name or place of birth, have led to
the location and identity Of the mother
OF John Puddy, according to Captain
Walter Ball, in charge of the naval
recruiting station here. The mother
is Mrs. Jack Puddy, of Bolton, Tex.
Two weeks ago. Young Puddy ap-
peared for enlistment in the navy. He
passed a perfect physical examination,
but said the only name he knew was
"Puddy," and that he did not remem-
Der his parents or place of birth.
Capt. Ball heard puddy's story and
christened him John" Puddy, Fort
Worth, Tex. aged 49, Puddy was
then accepted for service.
Publication of the story, Captain
Ball said, brought letters to him from,
parents in many states, seeking lost
sons. One letter from Mrs. Jack Pud'
dy, Belton, Texas, interested Capt
Ball The exchange OF letters with
Mrs. Puddy definitely established. &C
cording to the naval officer the rela-
tionship, between the Belton woman
and the naval recruit.
John has been given a furlough and
left today for visit to his mother.

-sEcRETARY BAKER
-SECRETARY BAKER

WASHINGTON. Jan. S.-The ex-
pected German offensive in the west.
Secretary Bakers weekly war review
says, twill possibly be their greatest
assault" but ''the British and French
armies can be relied upon to with
stand the shock. The review this
week makes no mention of American
troops.
Summarizing the situation on the
eve of possible great offensive, Sec
retary Baker confidently points out
that through sixteen fierce battles of
great magnitude the British and
French have steadily pushed ahead
with methodical and cumulative gains.
The expected offensive, he points out.
probably is being delayed for massing
great supplies of ammunition, guns
and troops and the Germans may be
expected to strain every fibre of their
remaining strength"
In the Italian front. the secretary
points out, French successes have
turned the scale against the Austro
German invaders and the west bank
of the Piave is being held firmly
Hampered by heavy snow falls In the
Alps, he says, the invader now is con
fronted with the tremendous handicap
of maintaining his transport which
neutralzes the advantage of holding
higher ground.
The period of adjustment, Secretary
Baker says, has passed and it may
now be expected that "the French
British and Italians fighting side by
side, will be able to master the situa
ton

HUNS CRISIS
IS SERIOUS
4
(By Associated Press)

Russia, apparently will continue
peace negotiations with the Central
Powers at Brest-Litvosk. A Berlin
dispatch received in Copenhagen says
that Russia's representatives arrived
at Brest-Litovsk, Monday and that the
negotiations we're to be re-opened yes
terday afternoon Foreign minister
Trotzky accompanied the delegation.
Official conformation of this report
is lacking but proba bility is lent to it
by the fact that neither Russia nor
the Central Powers has declared Of
fcially that the peace negotiations
have been broken off definitely. Ger
many suspended the negotiations tenn
porarily late last week because it
could not meet the Russian request
that the conference be transferred to
Stockholm.
The political crisis in Germany
brought about over the annexation
policy of the government is most seri-
Gus, according to reports from neu-
trail capitols. 1t is reported that Gen
eral Ludendorff. as leader of the mill,
tary group, threatened the resigna'
ton of himself and Field Marshal Won
| Hindenburg should the government
continue to support Foreign Secretary
! Won Keuhlmanns peace plans.
