Pueblo, Colo, Jan. 13.-Frank Skull
age 81, Mrs. Agnes Perme, age 36, and
Frank Perme, age II, all of Pueblo,
were frozen to death in a blizzard
Wednesday night three miles north of
Eads Colo. Two bodies were found
yesterday and that of the boy was
found this morning by searching par
ties.
The trio left Pueblo Wednesday aft
ernoon for Eads to visit Mrs Johp
Jenko, daughter of Skull and sister of
Mrs. Perme. Mrs. Jenko is seriously
ill and reported to be dying. They
were trying to reach her bedside be-
fore she died. The Jenko home Is
three miles from Eads, and the three
attempted to walk to the home from
the railroad when the storm ragged. 1t
is apparent that they became separated

yards apart. The body of Skull was
found half a mile beyond the farm
house and the bodies Of the mother
and son were found aa short distance
from the house but on the opposite
side from where Skull perished.

RUSSIAN AND GERMAN
REPORTS CONFLICTING

London, Jan. 13.-The Russian ac-
count of the session of the peace con-
ference at Brest-Litovsk shows a con-
siderable variance from the German
version transmitted by the Wolff bu-
reau Saturday. The Russian version
pictures the Russian delegates as act
ing throughout with more than sus-
picion--rather than an actual convic-
ton that the German delegates were
virtually agents of the military and
annexationist groups. One passage of
Trotzky's speech which the Wolff bu-
reau omits follows:
"The sincerity of our aspirations for
peace are sufficiently proved by our
attitude regarding the free right OF de-

Chicago Jan. 13.-One hundred
thousand volunteer workers in Chi
cago and thousands of laborers en-
ployed by the city and by railroads
today began the work of rescuing Chi
cago and the middle west from the
terrific storm which swept over this
section Friday night and Saturday,
tying up transportation facilities and
threatening food and fuel shortages in
many cities.
Railroads entering Chicago tonight
operated their first outgoing trains
since yesterday afternoon. No sched-
ules were adhered to. but virtually
every road managed to send out at
least one train. Reports from out.
lying territory indicated that major
ity of the scores of trains stalled in
the snowdrifts yesterday gradually
were proceeding toward their destna-
tions and that by tomorrow, with the
present clear weather prevailing all
lines would be open.
Brings in Trains.
The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
closed all local freight yards so as to
release the men for work in clearing
the tracks. The Chicago switch yards
were opened and scores of freight
stock trains, blocked on the outskirts
of the city, were brought in today.
In Chicago the situation, though
improving, is still forebodng. Despite
the efforts of the thousands of men,
women and children who toiled from
early morning until late tonight, il
still is impossible to make deliveries
of food and coal in many sections. The
city has been virtually without milk
since yesterday and dairies reported
today that only preferred deliveries
to hospitals and to houses where
there are children-would be made
tomorrow.
Women Dig at Drifts.
Heading many of the volunteers
digging brigades today were women
some clad in bloomers or overalls. In
some sections the women were out
at 4 a. m. They were assisted by
thousands of children. Schools will
be closed this week until the streets
are cleared releasing some $4,000
children for work in shovelling snow.
Ten deaths in Chicago have resulted
from the storm. The temperature has
been rising slowly since Saturday
afteronon and the wind has died
down.
Street car and elevated service vir-
tually was normal tonight on all the
principal lines, two companies Of
home guards aiding in clearing the
tracks.

use by our destroyers and submarine
chasers.
ut was especially gratifying to
note that the skill, ingenuity and in
Ventive resources of the bureau have
been productive of new designs de-
manded by the present methods of
modern warfare. Advantage has been
taken of every suggestion irrespective
of its sources. Intimate contact has
been established and maintained with
the ordnance bureaus and fleets Of
the allied nations, the greatest free
dom of interchange of information
and material being the order of the
day, The relationship with army
ordnance, signal service, aircraft pro-
duction board and the shipping board
has been most intimate and cordial.
The committee was gratified at the
executive ability shown by naval Of
ficers placed in charge of industrial
work.
Little Damage Done.
THE committee made special in
quiry as to the damage done to tor
pedoes at the Bliss works. IT ascer-
tanned that no torpedoes or damaged
parts had found their way into SER
vice; that spare parts for torpedoes
such as wheels, had been tamp-
cred with, but this was promptly de-
tected by the naval inspector of ord
nance and a close watch was main
tained upon these articles with the
result that the perpetrator of the
damage, one Paul Charles Hennig. a
native of Leipzig, Germany, who had
been in this country sncd 1908, has
been arrested and is now awaiting
trial.
THE committee was supplied with
full information of how many attacks
of submarines upon armed merchant
men had been warcfed off by the ship
gun crews using the battery with
bravery and skill and was given the
details of certain engagements of spe-
cial interest,

Amsterdam, Jan. 13.-The report OF
the Wolff bureau, the German sen:
official news agency, on Saturday :
deliberations at the Brest-LitovsN
peace conference, says that at le
opening of the sitting Count CZefnlu'
Austro- Hungarian foreign mihister'
announced that the central powers
recognized the Ukraine delegation as
IAN independent delegation req 'trt-
ing the Ukraine republic" but thht
formal recognition of the Ukr3iniah
republic as an independent state
would be reserved for the peace
treaty.
M. Trotzky, the Bolsheviki foreign
minister, followed Count CZernln
saying that such conflicts as had oc-
Cured between the Russian govern
ment and the Ukraine have had no
connection with the question of the
sclf-determinatlon of the Ukraine con
cerning which there is no room for
conflict between the two sister repub'
lies
Ukrainians PlaCated.
NJ. Bolubowysch, the Ukrainian sec
retary of state, accepted the state
ments of Count Czernin and M
Trotzky and announced that his dele
gates would participate in the peace
negotiations on that basis.
The delegates discussed the German
claim that the Russian wireless state
ments issued during the recess consti-
tuted a transgression of the spirit OF
the armistice. M. Trotzky desired to
know in what particular the spirit OF
the armistice had been transSressed
and General Hoffman, of the German
delegation, replied:
AT the head of the armistice treaty
stood the words, bring about lasting
peace Your Prussian propaganda
transgressed this intention, because 1t
did not strive after lasting peace but
to carry the resolutions concerning
civil war into the countries of the 'cn-
tral powers
Germans Have Same Right.
M. Trotzky answered pointing out
that all the German newspapers were
being freely admitted into Russia,
even newspapers which were support
ing the views of the extreme Russian
reactionaries. Complete equality had
been observed in this respect, and 1t
had nothing to do with the armistice
treaty. General Hoffman retorted that
this protest was not directed against
the Russian press, but against official
government statements and state
ments which bore the signature of
Ensign Krylenko, commander-in-chief
of the Bolsheviki forces.
To this statement Trotzky replied
that the treaty contained no restric-
tions or expressions of opinion by citi-
zens of the Russian republic or their
governing officials. DR.. Richard Won
Kuehlmann, German foreign minister,
interrupted NJ Trotzky saying
No Interference Internally.
"Non-interference in Russian az
fairs is the fixed principle of the Ger
man government, but the government
has the right to demand reciprocity IN
this respect"
Answering DIR. Won Kuehlmann'
Trotzky replied:
"On the other hand, the Russians
will recognize it as step forward II
the Germans freely and frankly ex-
press their views regarding Internal
conditions in Russia as far as they
think it necessary"

ley MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wIRE}
Washington, Jan. 13.--Complete sat
isfaction with the work of the navy's
ordnance bureau and its preparedness
for war is expressed by Representa-
tive oliver of Alabama, chairman of
the house naval investigation sub
committee, in a statement tonight
summarizing for his colleagues re-
suits of the ordnance phase of the in
quiry.
THE testimony convinced the COM
mittee,' says the statement, that the
prevalent belief and opinion as to the
navy's readiness are well founded"
The statement says that more than
LOO merchant ships have been equip
ped with guns and ammunition by the
navy since March IA last. and that
appreciable quantities of guns, large
and small, with ammunition, have
been furnished to England, France
and Italy. Many merchantmen of the
allies in addition to virtually the
whole American merchant flet have
been armed to fight submarines.
Duties Well Performed.
1.-THE committee was so impressed,
after exhaustive inquiry, by the eff
cient manner in which the bureau had
in every way performed the extraor-
dinary duty which war imposed" said
Mr. Oliver that the committee di-
rected me to make a summary of what
investigation.
THE bureau, so far as could be
learned, has fully satisfied the de-
mands made upon it by the vessels
operating in European waters. A
letter from Vice Admiral Sims COM
pliments the work and spirit of the
ordnance department. Other officers
in the war zone, writing in similar
vein, have given like testimony.
"As a preliminary to it's hearings,
the committe was most faborably
impressed with the business organiza-
ton.
Kept Things Moving.
"By a system of progressive reports
and follow-up methods provision eX
lists to insure the actual delivery of
material. The signing up Of a con-
tract marks but the beginning of ac-
ton: the follow-up and thorough in
spection systems and the policy of full
cooperation with the manufactures
insure prompt delivery.
1.-The organization of the bureau in
time of peace had been developed so
as to make it an organization for
war with the result that it is working
smoothly and efficiently notwith-
standing the fact that the expendi-
lures have increased from about 49,
coo, 900 to more than $3.50, 900, 900.
despite the pressure placed upon
the bureaus by the demands for more
ordnance materials for standard
types, it has been able to develop
much new material including large
depth charges, new submarine bombs,
non-richochet shells, bomb dropping
sights, howitzers, guns for throwing
depth charges, smoke screen appar-
atus. heavier ordnance on aircraft
and many other important designs
which we feel it unwise to disclose,
and make much progress on essential
articles of lesser Importance.
New Sources of Supply.
Where there were shortages in the
market of various materials, the bu-
reau took steps Immediately to de-

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy. saturday, Jan. 12 Thy the Assoc
ciated Press. )--Aerial warfare, on an
extensive scale is developing now that
operations along the Piave river and
on the mountain front have become
inactive owing to the wintry condi-
tions. Beginning with series OF
night raids during the moonlight over
Padua and other undefended Italian
cities, the enemy now is becoming
bolder and daily appears in broad
daylight above the small cities near
the front.
Shrapnel Bursts in Air.
Three raiders approached yesterday
and the crowds in the streets saw
spectacular battle in the sky. The
Germans flew at an altitude of ia, 900
feet where the temperature was about
80 degrees below zero. From the
ground the airplanes looked like tiny
white specks in the bright sunlight.
Shrapnel from the, city's air de-
defenses burst all around them.
A great cheer went up from the
crowds as a fleet of Italian Capronis
made straight for the raiders The
Germans adopted the ruse of Drop
ping and the sightseers became tu-
multuous in their shouts because
they thought the enemy machines
were being dripsn down by the Ital-
| ian airmen.
Two Are Brought Down.
But the raiders regained stability
and succeeding In planning away until
two of them were brought down by
Italian airmen. Both of the raiders
were captured and proved to be Ger
mans, as had been expected.
AS they alighted, the enemy avia-
tors sprang from their machines and
set them afire before their captors
could interfere. A third raider was
taken at about the same time by a.
British chaser on the upper Piaye
river
No one was killed by the raiders
but fragment of falling shrapnel
wounded boy who had been stand
ing in the street.
Renewed Activity Seen.
These daylight raids after the re-
cent destructive and deadly night
raids over Padua, Castel Franco, vi.
cenza Maestreand Monte Belluna, lead
to the impression that the enemy has
embarked on an extensive air raid
policy somewhat similar to the sub
marine campaign. The air attacks
are directed chiefly against civilians,
instead Of the military, apparently
with the purpose of terrorizing the
civil population.
The enemy's avoidance of fighting
IN the open with the Italians and their
allies makes II evident that the inyad-
ers are less interested in obtaining
mastery in the air on the military
front than in spreading fear among
the Inhabitants of the towns and the
peasantry far behind the front.
Among the many recent raids only
one has been made against military
objective. This was against an aerial
camp Of the Italians and the British
near Treviso and was so heavily re-
pulsed-eleven enemy machines being
destroyed-that all later raids have
been made against the undefended
communities

WORLDS GREATEST
COLLECTION OF
STAMPS FOR BERLIN

.Berne, Feb. 20-The worlds great
est stamp collection, at present in
Paris, and valued at $2,500,OOO, has
been bequeathed to the Berlin Postal
Museum. 1t was the property of
Philip Ia Renetiere, wealthy
Frenchman, who died at his home in
Switzerland last year. 1t is supposed
that the will was framed before the
war, as there is no reason to believe
that the owner had pro-German SYM
pathies in the present conflict.
The Berlin Postal Museum has al
ready one of the finest stamp collec-
tons in existence, but this bequest, if
the French courts allow it to stand,
will put it out of reach of any rivals
La Renetiere commenced his col
lection in 1854, and spent upon it the
greater part of a large fortune. It
includes the only known speciment of
the 1856 81 cent British Guiana, the
most priced stamp in the world, said
to be valued at $4,000. The coIlec-
ton has never been exhibited, and it
was always supposed that the owner
intended to leave it to the city of
Paris.
