RETREAT DUE TO
111 PICE
Hus&ians Poured Through Gap
Between Wings of Austrians
and Von Hindenberg’s Army.
London, 3:44 a. m.—The Petrograd
correspondent of The Daily Mail, sends
the following:
"It now is admitted semi-offieially,
but not ;et mentioned in the official
communications, that it was the failure
of the German crown prince to hold his
position in the center which compelled
a retreat along the whole line. While
General von Hindenburg on the left
and the Austrians on the right w'ere
both maintaining their positions, the
crown prince's army was fleeing back
to the fatherland.
The Russians poured in between the
wings thus left in danger and at
tacked them, each on two sides, forc
ing them to scramble back to the
frontiers and losing terribly all the
way.
The excuse made In Germany of
bad roads is ridiculed here since in
spite of bad roads, the Russians ac
complished marvels in marching. The
Russians, unlike the Germans, do not
depend upon the resources of the
country they are traversing hut bring
ample provisions with them.
"It appears that six German princes
were killed in this battle, three of the
Lippe family and one each of the
houses of Hesse, Waldeck and Reuss.”

CONFESSES TO
MURDER OF TWO
Lonely Farm House Mystery
Cleared Up-- Bodies of Aged
Couple Cremated After Killing
Poughkeepsie, N. Y.—The death of
George Voshurg and his wife In their
lonely farm house near Pine Plains
during the Christmas holidays of 1912
was stripped of Its mystery today by
the alleged confession of John Wood,
a farmer. Wood told the district at
torney and the sheriff that he with
three companions slew the couple with
an axe, robbed them of SBOO, and then
burned down the farm house. The
charred bodies were found In the cel
lar.
The district attorney placed Wood
under arrest and announced that he
had confessed the crime, bpcause he
could no longer endure the tortures of
conscience and wished “to clear his
soul.”
Upon information said to have been
furnished by Wood, Jesse Pells. Orvtl
Smith and Oscar Post, his alleged ac
complices. were arrested near the vil
lage of Pine Plains later In the day.
Wood was quoted as telling the fol
lowing story of tho crime:
“Post started the whole thing. Vos
burg had a chattel mortgage for about
SSO on his furniture and was going to
foreclose. Post got me. Pells and
Smith and we went In the night to
Voshurg’s house, first securing an axe
from the woodhouse on the farm of Ja
cob Hinsdale, where I worked.
"Post knocked at the door and Vos
burg opened it. Post demanded the
mortgage and Voshurg refused to give
It up. Then he ordered us away. Vos
hurg then secured a revolver which he
fired once when Post swung the axe
on his skull. I guess It killed Vos
hurg Instantly. Post dropped the axe
and entered the house. We followed.
Found SBOO.
“Mrs. Voshurg came out of her room,
Pells caught up the axe and hit her like
Post had hit the old man. Then we
ransacked the house and took all the
silverware. We found SBOO In cash
and took that too. Thpn we opened
all the doors and poured kerosene
around and set fire to the house. We
burled the silver in the woods nearby
and got It two weeks later and sold it
That’s about all there is to It. I’m
greatly relieved."

The Building World
Is Making Ready
for Greater Activity
Immediately a rift eomes fn the war
el on d and humanity turns its energies to
building up The tom-down properties of
the world there will he an increase in the
prices of all building materials. , ,
Railroads, our largest users of build
ing materials, will be breaking all former
records in building and extending activi
ty. Foreign countries will be calling for
and paying for our building materials just
as they are calling for and paying for out
horses and mules and food stuffs now. t
The inevitable result will be a steady
and decided permanent, increase in the
prices of all the different materials that
go into the construction of factories and
stores. .
This in turn will mean that whoever
expects to build will have to pay a much
higher priec*> for the erection of the same
class of building a few months lienee than
they would have to pay now.
To build now is to take advantage of
a SURE saving. It j< to get better work
manship piompter service better
grades of material.
It i- taking advantage of a rising
market.
