GERMAN MOVES FAIL
Offensive to Which Apparently Great Importance Was Attached Said to Have Come to Naught.
rETROGRAD (via Londou) March 30.—4:66 a. m.—A review of the German offensive movement in the Niemen district, to which it is said great importance was attached, is contained in an official statement issued by the war office last night. The communication follows: "From official documents which we have captured it seems the German attached enormous importance to their offensive movement in the transNiemen district, which failed on the 27th. The principal task was assigned to the Thirty-flrst division supported by three reserve regiments with a large body of cavalry. These troops advanced from Kalawarya on Krauss with orders to push forward at all costs to Lozdziejes and to cut oft Russian forces, which were engaging a German army west of that point. "During an engagement In which we took German trenches on the 27th, near the village of Vakh in the direction of Solrlenki, Captain Suvaroff leaped into an enemy trench and captured a machine gun, the flre of which he turned against a German reserve. "The Germans in the execution of this plan made prodigious effort and even attempted to envelope on the ice of lake Dusja our right wing, which was operating north of Lozdziejes. Moving over the ice of lake Duaja the Germans also attempted to turn our position in the passage between the lake and Simno. In two instances, however, near the villages of Siemeniska and Metelica we developed counter attacks against German attacks which had penetrated our rear and annihilated them completely. "During the last two days on the left bank of the Vistula the Germans have been very economical in their artillery flre. It would appear that the German forces In that region have been considerably weakened."
BUSINESS IN GERMANY NOW IN SATISFACTORY CONDITION.
Leading Industries Somewhat Hampered By Lack of Men—Women and Girls Seeking Work.
BERLIN (via London) March 30.— The business situation in Germany is regarded as fairly satisfactory and considerably better than might have been expected in view of the war. All industries, of course, are running on a restricted scale, chiefly because of the virtual cessation of over seas exports but as a large proportion of the skilled workmen went into the army the sharp curtailment In production was not attended by a corresponding increase in unemployment.
More women and girls are seeking worij in some branches of industry
Miss-'TThan can And employment but this is Brasj.f far from being the case with the men. On the contrary the leading industries of the country are seriously embarrassed by the scarcity of skilled workmen. This is true of the coal and iron trade, ship building and certain sections of the chemical industry.
A pronounced scarcity of workmen is reported from the great industrial district about Essen. The demand for coal is greater than the mines can meet, although its export has been -prohibited.
MARK CASE TO PARKE.
By agreement of the parties concerned, the divorce suit of O. E. Mark, former pastor of the Centenary church, was' venued to Parke county Tuesday morning in the Superior Court. Mark filed the motion for the change of venue Monday, setting out that he. would be unable to obtain a fair trial in Vigo county.

ISO LOST IN SINKING OF BRITISH STEMS
Crews and Passengers Given Little Time to Leave Vessels When German Submarines Attack.
LONDON, March 30.—10:30 p. m. Upward of one hundred and fifty lives were lost In the sinking by German submarines of the African liner Falaba and the British steamer Aguila, bound from Liverpool for Lisbon. The Falaba, which was torpedoed In St. Georges channel, Sunday afternoon, carried crew of ninety and about one hundred and sixty passengers, and of this total only one hundred and forty were rescued. Of those rescued eight died later from exposure. The Aguila had a crew of forty-two and three passengers and of these twenty-three of the crew and all the passengers were lost.
In both cases on sighting the submarines the captains tried to escape by putting on all speed possible, but the underwater craft overtook the steamers, showing that Germany now has some of her most modern submarines engaged in the blockade operations against England.
The captatn of the Falaba, who was one of those lost, was given five minutes to get his passengers and crew into the boats, but according to the survivors before this was possible torpedo was flred, striking the engine room and causing a terrible explosion. Many persons were killed and the steamer sank in ten minutes.
Trawlers which happened to be la the vicinity rescued most of those whe were saved others got away in the boats which were ready for launching and which were quickly lowered when the order was given to abandon the ship.
SEVENTEEN MORE SAVED.

This is the fourth boat that put off from the Aguila after the submarine attack. It was believed up to the present time to have foundered. The number of men now supposed to have lost their lives with the sinking of the Aguila is nine.
CONDITIONS IN PORTUGAL NOW SAID TO BE CRITICAL.
Ninety-five City Councils Oppose Attitude of Government—Many Bread Riots Occurring.
PARIS, March 30.—Apart from news of monarchlal and revolutionary origin, intentionally exaggerated, information from impartial and reliable sources shows that the Portuguese crisis continues serious, says a dispatch to the Journal from Madrid. Ninety-five city councils are said to have forwarded protest.3 against the dictatorial character of the government while only seventeen support it.
The increased price of flour has caused rioting and a number of bakeries have been stormed by crowds. The government has opened negotiations with banks for a loan.
The dispatch says that several soldiers were arrested at Oporto because of a revolutionary propaganda they were conducting and that nine bombs charged with nitro glycerine were found in the railroad station at Gaya.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va., March 30.— The German auxiliary cruiser Frinz Eitel Friedrich lay quietly at her dock today with smoke lazily pouring from one funnel and with no evidence of an intention to dash through the fan of hostile cruisers off the capes. There seemed no doubt that the limit of her stay was hourly drawing: to a close hut the time still was guarded as a strict secret.
The battleship Alabama arrived in Hampton Roads and while the authorities were silent as to circumstances which actuated the government in sending the warship here, it seemed apparent that the purpose was not to protect, the Prinz Eitel within the three-mile limit as had been suggested.
Marine men here assert that one reason for the presence of the Alabama Is to see to it that the British merchant ships which leave almost daily do not carry fuel to the allied warships off the capes. Scores of men at the docks declared that the British merchant ships after taking cargo and coaling their bunkers have taken on deck loads of coal such as would not he needed for an oversea voyage. Marine men also Insist: that, the allied warships frequently have been within the three-mile limit at night and that one of the ships ventured within the capes last week.

I KILLS SELF
Creeps Into Room Where Aged Relative Lies Sleeping and Inflicts Fatal Wound.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., March 30.— Mrs. Clotilda Cohen, 85 years old, member of the prominent family of this city, was shot and killed today by Henry B. Cohen, her grandson, who then turned the revolver on himself inflicting a wound from which he died later in a hospital. The tragedy occurred in Mrs. Cohen's home and she was killed while in bed.
Henry B. Cohen's bedroom adjoined that of his grandmother. Acting upon an impulse inspired by a suddenly deranged mind it is believed the grandson must have crept into the aged woman's room, brought his weapon close to her face and then flred. The servants in the house heard the shots and notified the police. Physicians and police were soon on the scene and after convincing themselves that the woman was dead hurried Cohen to a hospital.
Cohen was formerly in business here
