f THE MDHXTXG OREGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1. 1913. 1200 GERMANS ARE KILLED IN 2 HOURS Russians Pour Shot at Few Feet Into Enemy Entangled in Barbed Wires. DEADLOCK ON. IN POLAND Offers of Rewards to Deserters and Sending or Typhoid. Patients to Enemy Are New Ways- Ten tons Haw of Warring. BY PERCEVAL. GIBBON. Special cable to th. New York Times. !ublihed by arrangement with the Times.) ZTRAEDOW, Poland, received ton ton, Jan. 25. (Dispatch to the London Daily Chronicle.) Today is the com pletion of a month since the army fell tiack upon the Rawka and Bzura posi tions, where during the whole of that time fighting has been incessant. The Russian line, save for readjustments of front and small strategic variations a certain points, is the same as on De cember 19. Neither army has succeeded in gaining territory, and the whole long line of combat on this section of the front is beginning to wear something of the appearance of a stalemate. Though the Germans continue their attacks, these have changed in char acter. There are no longer those ter rific attacks upon 20 or 30 positions at once. As at Zuzow four days ago and as at Mogila on the following day, they are affairs limited to a single point. Mogila is a point where the Germans have sapped their way up to within 30 paces of the Russian trenches and are lying so close that they can no longer shell the Russians. Wire Stops Attacks. It is the position which I described In my last message, when the Germans attemoted a bayonet attack on a Rus sian trench which was protected with the usual barbed wire entanglement The Russians had also made a chevaux de frise of spiked poles, constructing them in short lengths like hurdles and winding them about with barbed wire like prickly cocoons. These were man ufactured in one trench and thrown forward over the breastwork to lie be fore it in an ugly tangle of barbs and points. It served the purpose of slow ing down the mass of Germans rush ing upon the trench, while the Rus sians rose to their rifles and opened a shattering fire into the thick of them at a range of only two or three TThe slaughter was naturally fright ful. The Germans brought down large reinforcements to the position and upon tho heels of the first charge the second and third lines came racing up. The Twentieth Siberians stuck to their trench, firing and piling up the dead In front of the breastwork till the Germans at last succeeded in getting hold of the chevaux de frise with grap neis and hauled some away, making a gap through which they could get at the trench. Siberians Also Reinforced. But in the meantime the Siberians had been reinforced, too. The great wood at their back contained a couple of Drigades of men. and at the psycho logical moment these rose yelling in their places and delivered a smashing counter attack with their long bayo net. The Germans were unable to stand before them, and with reserves pouring into the trench and Joining in the counter attack the enemy was driven back at the bayonet point over and beyond their own trenches, which the Siberians have since blown up. It is becoming a commonplace now to record of the German losses In these attacks that they were heavy. Lives and ammunition are two things which they never stint, and upon this occasion in less than two hours they left on the ground not less than 1200 killed. The German aeroplanes are now re laxing their duties of reconnoissance and bomb dropping to do the work of sowing proclamations. One has one side printed In the form of a five-ruble note. The reverse side shows an im aginary sketch of a very fat Russian soldier apparently enjoying the time of his life as a prisoner of war in Ger many. The letterpress offers a premium of five rubles to any Russian prisoner or deserter who will bring his rifle with him. Typhoid Patients Sent to Foe'. Another piece characteristic of Ger man ingenuity occurred near Kudva rioff at a point where the trenches lie within hailing distance of each other. The Germans hoisted a white flag and called out: "We've got fresh coffee. Come over and get some." - The Russians duly replied: "We've got fresh tea, you come and get some of that." Eventually the Germans made a fresh proposition to send 15 men to the Russian trench and the Russians to send the same number to them. This was agreed to, and 15 men from each side crossed and entered the opposite trench. As soon as the Russian 15 were safely In their hands the Germans hauled down the white flag and opened fire. It turned out that the 15 Germans were ill with typhoid. One conclusion emerges from the tangle of dally events on this front; that whatever may or may not be pos sible as regards the Russian offensive, the Rawka-Bxura line can be held In definitely and Warsaw Is as safe as ever. BRITAIN HAS YEAR'S FOOD Statistician Figures Bread Plenty, Though Liquor Would Be Scarce. LOXDON, Jan. 17. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) In a booklet entitled "England's Food Supply in War Time." Dr. R. H. Rew. head of the bu reau of statistics of the Board of Agri culture, declares that England is safe for at least a year, no matter what happens. "Bread." he points out. "can be made from other cereals than wheat. By the simple expedient of altering the popular type of loaf, the country could add 10 per cent to its wheat sup ply while as a food it would gain In nutritious elements. "It is a conservative statement to eay that for a year there would be no reason why anyone should go short of bread, even If nothing reached our shores. Livestock, however, would have to go hungry, and beer and whisky would be scarce. Moreover, in potato production the country is self-sustaining."

BRITISH REGAIN GROUND Trenches Previously Lost Before La Bassee Recaptured French Say Advantage Generally Has Been op. Their Side. PARIS, Jan. 31. The French War Office today issued the following state ment of the progress of the war: "The struggle during the day of January 30 was confined on almost every front to artillery combats. The cannonading was intense at numerous points. Our artillery has everywhere secured the advantage. "Before La Bassee the British army retook all the trenches which it mo mentarily lost. The Germans cannon aded the belfry and church of Fonque vlllers, to the south of Arras. "In the sectors of Arras, Roye. Sois sons. Rheims and Perthes our batteries have destroyed two of the enemy's pieces, several field works, a certain number of lance-bombs and dispersed several concentrations of troops, bivouacs and convoys. "In ttie Argonne, in the woods of La Grurle, where our troops were obliged on the 29th to retreat slightly, as al ready reported, the Germans delivered yesterday near Fontaine Madame three new attacks, which were repulsed. "From the Argonne to the Vosges there has been no change. We hold, notably near Badonvlller, the village of Angomont. which the Germans pre tend to have occupied." BERLIN. Jan. 31. (By wireless to Sayville. N. Y.) The following state ment was Issued today at army head quarters: "In Flanders yesterday there were artillery duels only. "At Guinchv, south of the highroad between La Bassee and Bethune, and near Carency, northwest of Arras, the Germans took some trenches." SEA BALANCE IS TURNED DISABLEMENT OP FORMER GOEBEX PUTS RUSSIA IN CONTROL. Turkey's Transport Service Vitally Af fected If German Contribution to Navy Is Ont of Action. LONDON. Jan. 16. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Recent re-r,n-t th.r the Sultan Jawus Selim, fnrtnarlv the German battle cruiser Goeben, had been put out of action for at least several months by torpedoes or mines in the Bosphorus still lack con firmation, but failure to hear of any movements or tne oatuo cruiaer u British naval experts to oeiievo me re nr hnr disablement Is true. th. iativ strength of the Russian and Turkish naval forces In the Black Sea is greatly artectea ir me ouium Jawus Selim is seriously disabled. At .i ...ti.rii of the war the vessel was accounted one of the crack warshipsof the German navy, and did serious dam age to British and French ports In the Mediterranean before she was turned over to the Turks. British naval experts declare that the removal of the Sultan Jawus Selim as a fighting force would leave the balance of power in the Black Sea to the Rus sians, and leave Turkey without the sea transport which is vital to her. The Russians possess five battleships In the Black Sea. These are the Evstafii, Ioann Zlatoust, Pantelimon, Rostislav and Tri Svyatitelya, of which the first two are eight and the others respectively 16, 18 and 21 years old, mounting between them 12 40-caliber 12-inch guns, four 35-caliber 12-inch guns and four 45-caiiber 10-inch guns. Opposing these the Turks have normal ly the Kheyr-Ed-Din Barbarossa and the Torgut Reis, two 24-year-old former German ships, armed each with four 40-caliber 11-inch guns and two 35 caliber 11-inch guns. Reckoning naval strength in big guns, the Russians can oppose 20 to 12 of the Turks, if the Sultan Jawus Selim is not counted. But with that vessel Turkey has preponderance in numbers of big guns, with the further advan tage that ten of these guns are modern 11-inch weapons mounted on one of the fastest and most modern battleships afloat. SEIZE F PRICE REGULATION W ITHIN LAW FUL POWER OP GOVERNMENT. Remedy May Be Invoked If Proof Is Given of Charges That Specula tors Are. Rigging Markets. LONDON, Jan. 16. (Corespondence of the Associated Press.) If it can be proved, as certain members of the House of Commons have alleged, that the Increased price of flour, bread and other commodities In the English mar ket is due to the work of speculators or combinations of dealers, one of the most important of the war acts passed by Parliament last Fall will be brought into operation. This is the "unreasonable withhold ing of supplies act." which was one of the emergency statutes passed imme diately after war was declared. It is perhaps the most socialistic of the nu merous laws passed to strengthen the hands of the government in the prose cution of the war and Its gperation is carefully limited in the text to the duration of the war. The act pro vides: "If the Board of Trade is of the opin ion that any foodstuff is being unrea sonably withheld from the market, they may, if so authorized by His Majesty's proclamation (made generally or as re spects any particular kind of food stuff), and in manner provided by the proclamation, take possesion of any supplies of foodstuff to which the proc lamation relates, paying to the owners of the supplies such price as may, in default of agreement, be decided to be reasonable, having regard to all the circumstances of the case, by the arbi tration of a judge of the High Court selected by the Lord Chief Justice of England." SUBMARINE SINKS VESSELS (Continued From First Page.) British ships had been torpedoed in the English Channel off Havre by a German submarine. They are the steamers Toko Maru and Icarla. The Toko Maru was bounJ from New Zealand to Eng land. Her crew was rescued by the trawler Semper. Her cargo consisted in part of clothing and a contribution of 1500 ($7500). New Zealand's gift to Beleian refugees. No details are avail able concerning the torpedoing of the Icarla. SHIP PURCHAS S E SECRET ENEMIES Many Senate Democrats Hope Republicans Will Succeed in Encompassing Defeat. WISDOM GRAVELY DOUBTED Fears of Possible Complications En tertained by Some; Others Op pose General Policy of Gov ernment Ownership. ORERONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Jan. 31. The so-called filibuster on the Government ship-purchase bill, while being conducted solely by Repub lican Senators, is regarded with con ntrlarabla favor on the Democratlo side of the Senate, and many Democrats are hopeful that the opposition will prove successful. Few Democratic Senators believe the ship-purchase bill is wise legislation. Most of them would be glad if the bill could be killed. Few of them have the temerity openly to voice their true convictions. While the Democratic caucus, after several days of discussion, went on record as favoring the bill at the behest of the President, action was taken re luctantly, in the hope that something would develop sooner or later which would justify the majority in laying aside the bill. -Out of courtesy to tbe President, however, the caucus agreed that the ship-purchase bill should be pushed.

CARDIFF FIGHTER PILES UP AD VENTURES AT FRONT. Escape From German Captors and Bag ging of Spies Give Variety to Life of Star of the Ring. r rtvnnxr Ton 17 f Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Private Har ry Jones, the well-known Cardiff boxer, has returned home to recuperate from wounds receivea in me v Meuse, where he underwent many ad vnturea as a member of the South Wales Border Regiment. After passing unnurt ihiwubu treat from Mons. in which his battalion i- . ri i . ii fi .Tones' law. broken last Spring in his ring contest with Dai Roberts, was rsnroi .i his fifiA This laid him up for luu . . - a few weeks, although he lost no time in getting back to tne ironu -n u. the incidents of the retreat was this: Jones was holding an officer's horse when a shell carried away the animal's hind quarters, leaving the head and forelegs In his possession: "I knew after that I wasn't to be killed," said the boxer. His most surprising adventure was his escape from German captors. While fighting on the Meuse Jones got lost and fell into the hands of five Germans. It chanced that all five had lived In London and spoke English well, and one had an English wife and seven children in England. Jones" abil ity to make himself entertaining at least procured him good treatment. The captors kept a close watch on him until late at night, but grew drowsy just as a thick fog came on. which enabled Jones to make a dash after ho had wriggled a few yards. Running into the French lines, Jones there chanced upon Tiger Smith, a famous boxer in his day, who defeated Gunner Moir. for the championship of England. Hearing from the French that two German spies had been Seen in a wood nearby, the two veterans of the prize ring started out after them. - They bagged the two spies and brought them to camp. ... , Jones was later wounded In the knee by a rifle ball and Invalided to Eng land. He intends to return to the front as soon as cured. . Fighting blood runs in Jones veins, for he met in the trenches along the Meuse his two brothers for the first time since the South African wqr. One of the brothers is the champion mid dleweight boxer of the British army and navy, a much-coveted honor in the boxing world. ' Mazamas Tramp to Oswego.
