MAN FINDS BRICK MINE
IN GROUND HE BUYS

PITTSBURGH. July 1.--If a man
bought a lot with the intention of
erecting a brick building and found
buried in the lot a quantity Of per-
fectly good brick. he should con-
slider himself lr3ky. That is ex-
actly what happened to George Raj
BILE. of McKeesport. He bought a
lot in Sixth avenue Between Locust
and Sinclair streets, and set to work
a gang Of excavators. who were not
engaged q great while until q steam
shovel brought up q load OF brick.
Investigation showed that the lot
was almost full ef brick that never
had been used. They were in perfect
condition. The bricks were carefully
removed and are 10 be used in Raibie IS

LEIPZIG. July There was a
dramatic scene In the war criminals

Major Benno Won crusius. who 10 on
trial charged with murder. shoot
down wounded French soldiers In

That Ia a lie. never killed q

accused officef. leaping to his feet.
Won Crusius 10 on trial Jointly with
General Karl stenger. stsnger was
accused by France with gfving
orders to take no prisoners and Won
crusius was alleged to have put the
orders into effect. Both defendants
denied that any such orders had BEEN
given.
More Than nifty witnesses. most Of
them from AlSace and Lorraine. were
summoned 70 Leipzig to testify
against the two German officers.
The Alsatians have woven . strong
net of testimony closely about both
officers. One witness said he had
seen Won Crusius with revolver in
his hand stalking among the wound
ed French soldiers on the battle feld
putting them 70 death.
The offenses with which the two
officers are charged are alleged to
have taken place in the first four
months OF the war when the French
invaded Germany and there was hard
fighting in the mountains of Alsace
and Lorrains.
A German army surgeon testified
that he had treated Crusius in 1915
for a nervous breakdown and that
he believed the collapse was due to
the strain imposed upon him by the
orders of his chief. Won Crusius
commanded q brigade in Stengers
army.
stenger, stern old Prussian and
typical German army officer, sat in
court wearing his iron cross and
staring straight ahead. He showed
no sign of emotion as testimony was
given that he had ordered wounded
French soldiers to be killed. El
