RUSSIAN TROOPS
EAGER TO REACH
POLISH CAPITAL
Believe the War win End
When Warsaw Falls: Red
Army Has Plenty of Every,
thing Except Cavalry.

Warsaw, Aug, s Thy the Associ-
ated Press, Sergeant William
Cook. of Fay, Okla, member of the
American typhus expedition, cap
tured three weeks ago by the boil
sheviki at Minsk, has arrived. hav-
ing been released. He came by
way of wilma and Riga, where he
joined a Red Cross courier.
Soldiers in the bolshevik army,
he said, ARE all eager to reach
Warsaw, as they believe the war
will end If the capital is taken,
Some bolsheviki apparently do not
care whether the war eaos. MANY
are young fellows who look on war
as a lark"
The soviet army has plenty OF
soldiers, rifles, machine gun and
ammunition, Cook says, but he did
not see any artillery except six
captured cannon. He saw many
American automobiles and motor
cycles being used. and remarked
that the bolsheviki are fairly well
fed, having lived off the country
they have captured. Little disCi-
pline prevails, he declared, but al
though there is no saluting, Off
GERS are respected. While on the
march, the bolsheviki reminded
Cook of crowd of American farm
err boys going to picnic, as they
made no effort to preserve forma-
tons. Whenever they desired,
groups would rest one day he
counted eleven airplanes flying to-
ward the front
Regarded az Freak.
Cook. who fought in the Ameri-
can ranks in France, was captured
when he remained with the anti
typhus train at Minsk. Cook was
taken for a Polish soldier by the
bolsheviki, who stripped him of
everything except his underwear
and then paraded him through the
streets. When 1t became known
he was an American, soldiers came
for miles to see him and he was
regarded as freak,
A bolshevik officer at first
ignored Cooks plea that he was a
relief worker. Two
weeks after his capture Cook was
taken before the commissair, who
related the good points of the
soviet form of government. Cook
remained in Minsk a week before
he could obtain papers to give him
authority to travel. During that
time the bolsheviki began closing
stores. taking them over for the
government While there he lived
on black bread and tea.
Cook served twenty years in the
United States army.
While in Minsk Cook met Louis
Jennings, an American lumber
dealer. Jennings, who Is still an
American citizen, did not leave
when the bolsheviki threatened
the city because Mrs. Jennings
was visiting in q nearby town.

.OF RUPP PROBE
Colonel Won't Shield Anyone
Connected With Wife Stab
bling Case at Langley.

NORFOLK, Va, Dec. 30.-Col-
onel W. N. Hensley, commandant OF
Langley Field, announced today that
there would be no Developments in
the case of Lieutenant r. ID. Rupp,
U. S. A., accused Of attacking his
wife with a knife on December IT.
until the findings of the Court OF
Inquiry now conducted by the War
Department were made public.
HIGHER OFFICER INVOLVED
II the court recommended that
Lieutenant Rupp be court -martialed.
Colonel Hensley said. the trial would
begin without delay. Colonel Hens
lay declined to discuss the report
that another officer OF higher rank
than Lieutenant Rupp would also be
placed on trial. He said he could
not discuss the case until the recon-
mendations OF the court OF inquiry
had been made public.
1t developed yesterday that on the
night Mrs. Rupp was attacked. there
was a military ball at Langley Field,
attended by the officers stationed
there and their wives. Mrs. Rupp,
who had been in the sitting room
with her husband and other guests,
went up TO her room to dress for
the ball. Lieutenant Rupp and
Lieutenant Crosby, who was a guest
at the Rupp reidence. went outside
for a smoke.
DISCOVERED LADDER
Lieutenant Rupp then discovered
ladder leaning against the house
under his wifes window. He went
up to her room and after Quarrei,
it is alleged, he cut her several
times across the face, and stabbed
her twice in the left shoulder an |
once in the back with pocket
knife. Then he rushed downstail $,
declared his wife had been attacked
in her room by a woman, and eE-
hibited an earring which he said had
been torn from the ear OF Mr.
Rupp's assailant.
Two days later he declared his first
story was false and assumed all re-
sponsibility for the attack on Mr..
Rupp He requested Colonel Heenslcy
, to send him before medical boar
to have his brain examined.
/ An investigation by the Hampton
police brought out the fact accordirg
! to the civil authorities, that the ear
ring found in Lieutenant Rupps pos
session had been the property of
Hampton woman. She will be wit
ness when Lieutenant Rupp is pla Il
on trial. The Hampton police have
considerable evidence gathered during
the investigation of the case that the
military authorities decline to discu :.
Colonel Hensley says, however, that
he intends to bring to light every par
ticle of evidence to be had. He denied
reports that he was in any way trying
to cover W the facts in the case.

were excellent breeding places for
MOSQUITOES, and the residents suffered
accordingly.
COST or LIVING Low.
In the winter the Potomac some
times froze so tight that persons
could skate as far as Mount Vernon.
The streets were dead at night. The
shop windows were barred and shut
tered. and no lights except antiquat
ed gas lamps illuminated the high
ways.
The FIRST exhibition OF incandescent
lights in Washington was at Smith
sonian Institution. Mr. Reese said.
The professor" who had charge OF
the exhibition placed the electric
lights in a tank filled with goldfish.
People gathered from far and wide
to see the experiment and voiced
their astonishment with sundry
"oh's" and "ah's."
The cost of living fifty years ago
was not as great as 1t Is today, Mr.
Reese said. Despite the fact that nc
reconstruction period after the clNil
war was on, the housewife then could
buy two pounds of pork chops for
twenty-five cents and two pounds OF
sausage meat for the same price.
.GRAssHOPPER PLAQUES.
Mr.. Reese's father owned a house Al
Fourteenth and q streets. He bought
the property for three and one-hdii
cents a foot. There were no ASH col
lectors in those days. Ashes were
dumped in the streets.
Plaques of grasshoppers and frogs
hit the city. Mr.. Reese remembers the
day it literally rained millions 81
frogs on the White Lot in back OF INC
White House. Millions of grasshop'
pcrs also tormented the inhabitants.
"a lot of people would completely
get rid of the English sparrows, said
Mr.. Reese But I tell you these same
English sparrows were responsible
for getting rid of the pest of grass
hoppers."
