and a blacksmith shop, the latter fronting Sailor street. Mr. Ashley, who will have charge of the property in the event he and Mr. Brown secure a lease on it, said no plans affecting that part of the property fronting Main street had yet been considered, but that the rear building facing Ninth street would be razed and a modern business block erected on the site as soon as the exact nature of the improvement had been decided on. Bank Likes Location. It is understood that the recently organized German-American Trust and Savings Bank company would not be adverse to securing a location in the Wakefield property if the room now occupied by the Light, Heat & Power company could be secured. Inasmuch as the latter company holds a six years lease on this room It Is a question whether it would agree to surrender the lease. The pending deal for the Wakefield property Is among the most Important of the several Main street realty transactions In recent months, which have resulted in a big boom for Main street real estate. Since the first of last fall the Tremont block, Eighth and Main streets, the Wolford block, between Ninth and Tenth streets, and lots on Main street, near the, corner of Eleventh street, have been sold outright. The pending deal is the first negotiated under the ninety-nine year lease arrangement.

BY ROBERT CRANSTON, Staff Correspondent The International News Service. NEW YORK, Jan. 25. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in terstifying today before the federal commission on industrial relations, strongly defended his attitude in the Colorado mine strike, but at the same time advanced the opinion that it is just as proper for labor to organize for its own protection as for capital to do so. In addition to being an active director of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company, Mr. Rockefeller is also one of the chief directors of the Rockefeller foundation, one of the philanthropic aggregations of capital which are being investigated by the commission. Describes Occupation." Mr. Rockefeller, asked about his occupation, said: "That is a hard question to answer. I spend part of my time directing tho Rockefeller foundation and part directing the industries established by my father. At other times I devote myself to matters of investment." The witness began reading a statement which had been prepared in advance, part of which follows: "Any one who has followed the controversy which has arisen out of the Colorado situation will have observed that no effort has been spared to make it appear that I have attempted to exercise a kind of absolutism over the coal industry of Colorado, and particularly that I have tried to dictate a policy of non-recognition of unions.

' "An attitude toward Industry and toward labor such as Is here implied, is abhorrent to me personally, and so contrary to the spirit of ray whole purpose and training that I can not allow these allegations to pass unnoticed. I believe it to be just as proper and advantageous for labor for advancement of its legitimate interests, as for capitol to combine for the same object. Combinations of capital are some time conducted in, an unworthy manner, contrary to law and in disregard of the interests both of labor and the public. Such combinations cannot be too strongly condemned nor too vigorously dealt with. Although combinations of this kind are the exception, such publicity is generally given to their unsocial acts that all combinations of capital however rightly managed or broadly beneficient, are thereby brought under suspicion. "As respects the question of tlui recognition or non-recognition of labor unions in Colorado, my attitude has been in conformity with the views I have expressed relative to the responsibility of stockholders, directors or managers. The discharging of men and the framing of agreements as functions which belong to the management and not to the stockholders or directors. The Colorado Fuel and Iron company has been managed on this principle. The decision of the officers with respect to the recognition of the union was reached without consultation or communication with me, and I had no knowledge of their decision until the strike had been declared."

GIANT ZEPPELINS SAIL FOR BELGIUM

Expected to Spring Surprise on Kaiser's Birthday, Wednesday. TBY LEASED WIRE. GENEVA, Jan. 25. Two of Germany's biggest and newest Zeppelins sailed secretly from Freiderichshafen last night for a German base in Belgium. It is believed that they will make a spectacular raid of the Kaiser's birthday, Wednesday. The new dirigibles are 96 feet longer than the old airships and each is equipped with a special platform on which hydro-aeroplane scouts can alight, or from which they can fly. Each Zeppelin is equipped with a hydro-aeroplane for reconnaissance duty and each carries sixty bombs. The airships carry enough fued to enable them to travel 280 miles without stopping.

LEGISLATOR'S HOUSE DESTROYED BY FIRE Colored Maid Saves Youngest Child of Representative J. A. Coons. BY LEASED WIRE. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 25. The family of Joseph A. Coons, a member of the lower branch of the state legislature of Lebanon, was saved by a colored maid early today when fire started in the residence of A. G. Ruddell, president of the Central Rubber company. Representative Coons leased the house during the legislative session while the Ruddell family is spending the winter in Los Angeles, California. The maid, Nellie Linsey, awoke Mr. and Mrs. Coons and carried three-year-old Joseph A. Coons, Jr., while tho representative and his wife grored their way through smoke-filled halls to an exit. The maid ran barefoot with the child through the deep snow to the home of J. W. Pennell, across the street. Firemen saved the Ruddell house, after about $3,000 damage had been done.

FOR KAISER'S BIRTHDAY ON WENDESDAY GERMANS EXPECT TO WIN BIG VICTORY

MOTLEY ASKS LIVES FOUNDED UPON GOD

Man wants to seek the pleasures and riches of the world and have the kingdom of God added to his worldly store. The Lord instructs "that the -kingdom of God shall be sought first after which "all these things shall be added unto you." Based upon this thought the Sunday evening sermon by the Rev. W. R. Motley at the Central Christian church, laid stress on the fact that a sucessful, honorable life could only be built with the kingdom of God as the foundation.

MASONIC CALENDAR

BY FRANKLIN P. MERRICK, Staff Correspondent of International News Service. PARIS, Jan. 25. This is expected to be an important week In the operations in the western theatre of war as there is good reason to believe that tb.3 invaders will try to give the Kaiser a victory for a birthday present on Wednesday. French and British airmen have reported important German concentrations in West Flanders and along the German center during the pas three days. The French are reported to have evacuated St. Georges, south of Nieuport in Belgium, as a result of the combination of floods and German artillery fire. In the district around St. Hubert and Cour De Paris', in that section of the Argonne known as the burned forest, the Germans succeeded in blowing up fifty yards of French trenches but the other positions of the French there are being maintained. The French trenches at Cour De Paris dominate a valley, at the bottom where flows a small tributary of the Aisne. The Germans have been concentrating attacks against the French there for several days in an effort to clear the valley of its defenders. According to late dispatches from Upper Alsace, the struggle at Hart-mann-Sweilerkopf, between four and five miles north of Steinbach, is still in progress with the French on the offensive. The French are trying to clear the Germans from the wominating hill tops where the defenders hold strong positions supported by artillery. The French had penetrated as far as the barbed wire entanglements of the

German trenches last night, and had thrown up hasty earthworks from which they could launch a fresh attack at daybreak.

FOX TIGHTENS RULES Wants Court Papers Handled More Carefully. Judge Fox threatened the lawyers practicing in circuit court that if any more court papers were not available when needed he would make a ruling that all papers should be kept in the filing cases. The judge said this was the only judicial circuit in the sta'e where lawyers -were permitted to carry away complaints, answers, petitions and other documents and leave a card in place. He said the privilege had been abused and would be rescinded unless some change was made.

Because of the extreme weather the baptismal service which was to have been held at the Central Christian church last night, was postponed.

war. There were only nine vessels of her class in the German navy when

w ar began, and those have been do-

stroyed were the newest. 1 hough liuilt at a cost of $1,250,000, the Bluecher has always been regarded as a "naval misfit." She was laid down according to plans that were behind the system on which British ships were being constructed at the same time. Thought changes were made later, she could not be brought up to date.

Commenting upon the naval victory ; won by the British, the Daily Mail; says the moral superiority now lies ; with England. "The children of Drake and Nelson still keep the North Sea," it say?, ; "and have lost none of their ancestors' I valor and seamanship." With the other newspapers, it at the i Fame time flays the Germans for their: bombardment of English coast towns, saying: "The great and glorious achievement In more welcome because it was accomplished against the very force that has been misused by the German admiralty for the bombardment of Scarborough and the murder of unoffendcivilians." Bluecher Sacrificed. The Daily News presents the unique theory that the Illnecher was sacrificed to save the Moltke, Seydlitz and Derfl'linger, these ships making their escape while the British warships were destroying the Bluecher. Baron Fisher, chief aea lord of the admiralty, received hundreds of congratulatory dispatches today, this holng his seventy-fourth birthday anni-; versary. Most of the messages con-. blned congratulations on both ni 3 I
