WANT POLES REMOVED FROM SITE OF BRIDGE ON NORTH MICHIGAN ST. The telegraph and telephone poles on X. Michigan st., which were temporarily disarranged to allow the construction of the Michigan st. bridge, may never be replaced, according to Thomas Beaning, superintendent of police and tire alarms. Richard. Klbel, president of the park board, Beaning. and C. X. Spencer of tho

American Telegraph and Telephone f

Co., met with the board of public works Tuesday morning in an effort to solve the problem. The park board, according to Mr. Klbel, wishes to remove all telephone poles from X'. 'Michigan st. To take their poles from their present route, according to Mr. Spencer, would mean a circuitous route on the east bank of the river, which would cost at tho least $G,00U. The telephone company wishes to continue in its present route and install a pole at the south abutment of the bridge to carry its wires across the ricr. The matter will be discussed further at the Tuesday night meeting of the board, at which time the following assessment rolls will come up for hearing; Trunk sewer on Indiana a v. from Miami to ?darine st.; cement walk and curb on Lincoln st. from Sample to C. I. S. railroad: various street improvements; widening of Terrace av. from Woodward to Portage a v.

Uo j believe Germany will lose in this struggle?" said Mme. Stdle-Pour-tot, in answer to a question at her home at o':!2 W. Kighty-Kighth st. "There can be no doubt about it in my opinion. The Prussian empire had reached the apex of its grow th and it was bound to decline. There is no

overcoming the determined spirit of the French, the sublime devotion to their cause, their intense patriotism, their loyalty to principle. With the aid of the Rritish and Russians defeat for the allies is impossible, and I believe the Germans are beginning to realize that they arc up against a stone wall." Mme. Stelle-Pourtot said the French

were ready lor war two years ago, ana that all realized that a gigantic struggle with Germany was only a matter of time. If the people could have had the deciding vote on several occasions within the last five years when the dominating policies of Emperor William practically were forced down the throats of the French, there would have been war, she said, but the government placed its veto upon that course. Women Arc Heroic. "When Relgium was invaded the spirit of patriotism spread over France like wildfire." she said. ' The son of a woman employed by me who had been rejected as a soldier because of a disable elbow, sang with joy when

'he was permitted to join the colors.

In no place in the world were so muny regiments of troops formed as in Paris, and the French women were noble in the extreme. I do not recall a mother or ymms man's sweetheart who wept hecause their sons end lianoes went to war. Those who ept did so becaus.; they themselves were not permitted to carry guns and go upon the tiring line." Ordered to Kouriret, where the French wounded were brought. Mme.

Yv'hen armies are made up of such material there is no such term as defeat." Lack Real Spirit. Referring to the wounded German soldiers who came under her observation near Arras, Mme. Stelle-Pourtot said they generally lacked the true spirit of patriotism and were selfish, irascible and stubborn. She told of one olticer who became peevish when a nurse offered to him a plate of soup which he disliked and threw It into her face. Several wounded French troops who witnessed -the incident shouted. "Death to the scoundrel"

"I told this German ollicer that he was a shameless creature" she said. "He sneered and turned his lace to the wall. Despite his conduct he was well treated hy the nurses, but they were glad when he was well enough to be sent to Paris, where he now is probably. The average German soldier I talked with proved to be surly, spiteful. Idled with hatred of all who are opposed to the Prussian idea of things, and firmly convinced of the invincibility of the kaiser and the cause for which they were giving up their lives." Mme. telle-Pourtot told of an Incident in which the aged mother of Dr. Delbct, well known surgeon, figured prominently. Mme. Delbet was

in ner nome on tne .Mouse wnen me Prussians appeared on their march to Paris, and she was obliged by one officer to stand for three hours and watch troops file by. Meanwhile she was insulted, despite her is 4 years, by scores of the troons. She told of cruelty to

the peasants on the part of the Germans and mistreatment of women in the villages through which the invading Germans passed. Milk Same Cow. "Despite the record of horrors this war will unfold to the historian," said Mme. Stelle-Pourtot, "it has its human side. I used to visit the trenchts near Arras daily, and often sang for the French troops on these occasions. There were two lines of Ucnchea across a farm, about 100 yards apart and there was a cow which the Germans and French soldiers treated royally. According to agreement, the French were to milk the cow in the morning and the Germans at night. While the cow was being milked not a shot was fired. I should like to know what became of that cow, but I'm afraid I never shall find out." According to Mme. Stelle-Pourtot, the German love for sardines lost the Prussian army many men. The French would tie a box of sardines to a string and throw it between the trenches, the assurance being given th.it the Prussian who would go after the box of sardines might eat its contents provided he agreed to become a prisoner. At least "0 Prussians were captured by a group of jO French troops, she said, but the system fell into disuse when the supply of sardines gave out. Mme. Stelle-Pourtot became a victim of insomnia as a result of her work on hospital trains, and this was aggravated by the thunderous reports of bursting shells. Her conditon became so alarming that the chief of the unit to which ?he belonged ordered her to return to Paris in January. She thereupon came to New York on the advice of her physician, but she asserted that as soon as her condition would warrant it she would return to the tiring line.
