FARMER HELD
UP AT POINT
OF REVOLVER

Sheriff Holmstead of Monroe Cen
ter, teIephoned police headquarters to-
day that Isaac Ravelle while driving
wagon near Monroe Center last night
was held up at the point of a gun by
two masked highwaymen who over
hauled him in a high powered touring
car. The bandits went through his
pockets and took $50 which he had
on him.
According to further Information
obtained by the police, the wagon was
travelling along the road without hav-
ing any lights and when overtaken
by the bandits in the auto it was
sometime before Ravalle could make
out the fact that the men were hold
ing gums within a few feet of his head.
They were careful to avoid getting
the glare of the light from the auto
lamps. so that it was impossible to get
anything like a description of them
in the darkness. After they had sat
isfed themselves of the fact that he
had nothing else of value rpon him
they turned their auto around and
drove toward Bridgeport at a high
rate of speed.
Sheriff Holmstead is of the opinion
that the men belong to Bridgeport and
the traffic squad have been instructed
to investigate drivers of cars which
were known to be in the vicinity Of
Monroe Center. lastuight

This mornings newspapers print the
story of the manner in which the
marquis, after having worked as an
engineer for the Krupps for IL years.
made fortune of 1000, 900 francs
in commissions on the sale of submar-
ines built on plans furnished by him.
The newspapers now declare the sub
marine plans which he took to the
Krupps were stolen from the French
ministry of marine.
M. Labeuf the engineer who drew
the plans tells the Petit Parisen that
they were stolen, but he makes no
direct charge against the marquis.
The first submarines produced by the
Krupps, it is claimed, were recog-
nized as copies of the French sub
marine Aigrette.
The marquis, in his own defense,
says he accepted offers made to him
by the Krupps only after he had Of
fered his services to both France and
England, and that he built four sub
marines for Russia before working
for the Krupps. He denies that he
stole the plans of the Aigrette.
The marquis, it appears, built q
ship yard in Bordeaux in close prox-
unity to the government establish
ment there.

SCHROEDER TO

IN ARMY Lines

/. Amsterdam, April 26-Vice Admiral
Schroeder, the commander at Zee
Fbrugge, according to reports reach
ang here, will be deprived of his COM
mand for being taken by surprise by
the British on Tuesday,
German newspapers in comment
ing on the, raid on Zeebrugge gener-
ally take the hint given in the official
reports of Berlin and represent the
enterprise as having been a failure.
Some, however, admit that the attack
was made with great boldness.
The cement laden ships which
weres sunk close to the coast, will not
hinder the exit and entrance of the
German naval forces the Keel
nische Zeitung says.
The Lokal Anzeiger says the raid
ers succeeded in blocking the water
way to a great extent, but the sub
marines still are able to, leave their
harbor as a narrow passage remains
The Weser Zeitung regards the Brit
ish version as a fantastic substitution
of the wish for the deed and adds:
''It is q success of which we Ger.
mans maysboast."
The Koelnische Volks Zeitung sees
IN the attack evidence that the ex.

HUNLAND WAGES
FAR below The
COST OF LIVING
Working People Undernour-
ished Money Has Only
One-Fourth Value.

Washington, April 26-Increase in
wages paid in Germany have utterly
failed to keep pace with the increas-
ed cost of living, says the April bull
letin of the Department of Labor.
The average increase in wages has
been SO per cent. while the living
cost has gone up 800 per cent. The
greatest increase in vegas has been
received by Prussian metal workers
who are now getting So per cent
more than they formerly received. In
creases as low as 16 per cent have
been reported and some women are
still being paid less than $3.50 per
week.
The purchasing power of money
has dropped to one-fourth it's value
before the war according to the bull
letin. German workingmen, it says,
are being underfed. One egg per
week is their allowance. O1eomar-
garine is limited to an ounce and a
half for a family of four.
Sugar is more plentiful, the family
allowance being one and one-ha1f
pounds. Coffee is practically unob-
tainable. Potatoes are the heaviest
item in the ordinary diet.

SHIPS LEAVE The
SHORES OF PORTO
RICO IN BALLAST
Sugar Planters File Protest
and Claim Shipments Are
Behind Last Year.

San Juan, Porto Rico, April 25-
Steamships and schooners with suf-
fcient capacity for carrying 100, 1000
bags Of sugar have been dispatched
from Porto Rico to the United States
in ballast or else sent to Cuba for
cargoes of sugar within little more
than one month when there have
been ample sugar cargos offered here
according to shipping men.
Sugar men who are not moving
their crops as rapidly as they wish
say that ships are not permitted to
obtain cargo in Porto Rico because
the allotment of spaces for sugar N
the West Indies is largely controlled
by representatives of steamship COM
panies doing business here.
Nineteen steamers took sugar from
Porto Rico to the United States dur
ing March carrying total of ap-
proximateTy 100000 bags. Ship
ments are approximately $4,000 tons
behind the shipments for the same
time last year.

FURTHER HUNS
ADVANCE, MORE
IS Their Peril

On the French Front in France,
Thursday, April 2T.-(By the Associ-
ated Press)-The more they advance
on the road toward Amiens the more
perilous becomes the salient the Ger
mans are forming in the Somme re-
gTon, especially in view of the fact
that the Allied reserves are virtually
intact and the Allied armies now are
commanded by single chief.
The present moment is less favor
able to the German plans than when
they started their advance on March
81. Then a weak point existed be-
tween the French and the British
armies. Now there is no sensitive
part of the line, since the unified
command hes0 given the opportunity
to make the most practical use of al
the Allied troops.
