ing with the Russ bolsheviki in

belief that the basis of peace remains
as follows:
First, Poland will claim only the
territories inhabited by majority Of
Polish and Catholic population. The
soviet government does not contest
this point.
Second-Poland will claim for the
peoples once forming part of an
cient Poland the right freely to de-
termine their lot.
Third-The declaration of the so
Wet government on these counts
which often has been repeated but

on. around Ciechanow. northwest Of
Warsaw, due to efforts Of the Poles
to cut off two Russian divisions that
entered the Danzig corridor.
All civilians in the Posen district
from II to so years OF age are mo-
bilizing. 1t is stated 100000 fresh
Poles will be ready to take the field
within month. Women are drilling
with the men. Twenty-Five members
of women's battalions have been cap
tured.
The Poles have just equipped three
squadrons of bombing airplanes Of
10 machines each. Bombing machines
already are in action. Neutral avia-
tors who accompanied the expedition
behind the lines say they witnessed
bolshevik company blown up by
one bomb.
Dissatisfaction here with the situa-
ton resulted in opponents of the gov
eminent, drawing up proclamation
declaring Posen's independence Of
Russia and Austrian Poland. A men,

ton and supplies.

quent confession
II crush the stpchnine In a glass
and take il with salts. It's easy enough
10 get il II you know how"
This statement, II is alleged, was
made by Eva Bond Pettibone on the
morning Of Armistice day in Bcnning-
ton, many months previous TO her
death on April 6, when Il is alleged by
the state that dose Of strychnine sui
phate was administered TO her with
fatal intent by her husband. Byron NJ.
Pettibone. He is on trial in superior
court here for his life, charged with
murder in the first degree This was
the surprise sprung by the defense
here Monday, and IL was given by a
witness, Mrs. Lillian Wray of Boston.
former resident Of Bennington. She
testified she recalled the incident when
she read in the papers that Mrs. Petit
bone died suddenly Of strychnine pois-
oning and that her husband was
e..arged with administering the fatal
dose.
This testimony. coming as II did
from responsible witness who was
not ahaken in the least by a brief
ross-examination, was the most tell
ing point yet registered for the de-
fense and IL lays the basis OF their
contention that she took the overdose
herself by mistake. This testimony,
together with that OF several promin-
ent Bennington citizens, including the
pastor Of the First Baptist church, as
TO the reputation borne by Pettibone
in the community on the question Of
being quiet, peaceabe and inoffen-
sive" citizen, occupied the attention Of
the court during the afternoon.
AT adjournment at o'clock, Benja-
min Harrison Pettibone, brother Of
the respondent, was on the stand ex-
planning the affectionate actions Of his
brother and Ills wife during their
many visits TO the Pettibone home
stead In North Pcwnal
The state closed its case at the open
ing of court Monday afternoon when
Miss Nellie Hogan identified the tran
script of the confession made by Petit
bone on July 10th before Attorney
General Frank C. Archibald and Dep
uty Sheriff Edward Shannahan in the
court house at Bennington and this
second confession made by Pettibone
within "a hours after his arrest was
