THREE AUTOISTS IN COURT 31. A. Mmey Fined Sll !r Itl i hit Around Street Car.

M. A. Shuey. 1 " Lincoln way R . drier of a jitney bus, was arraigned in city court Monday morning charged by Motorcycle Patrolman Wesolek with having driven around a street car n the left ha ml side. His jittorney declared that at the point on Lincoln way K. where the violation was alleged to havp occurred, the Headway was too narrow for pass-age on tho right side. Shuev was lined $11. Howard Ballard, L'::i R. Indiana a'.. arrested by Patrolman Pallo for failure to display proper licence taus, w as given a suspend d line of J 11 upon his .story that he had lost one of the plates from his machine. J. A. Johnson of Mishawaka was lined $11 f"r exceeding the speed limit. He was arrested by Patrolman 1 sack son.

According to the rule set down In such cases, false preteme must relate to existing fact or past event in order to constitute a crime in he eyes of the law. uch was the ruling of Judge Funk Mondav morning in the cas of the state against C. F. Hunt. Th case against the defendant, charged with rcfrauding James P. Wood worth out of $L'l, was dismissed. It was alleged that, following his removal from Lafayette to this city last spring, Hunt had secured his household goods from the freight house by giving the transfer man a check to cover the cost of packing at Lafayette which was done by one Joe Ardapplc. loiter, it is said. Hunt stopped payment on the check, which was for $21, so that he now has ins household goods without having paid the cost of packing. Wood worth who transferred tho good in this city, paid the ill to Ardapple nt Ir fayette. It is probable, now that civil action will be brought to recover the money.

RUSS FORCE IS TRAPPED (COXTIM'KD FROM PAUL ONE.) and the general staff may choose either one: 1 A campaign to take- Petrograd. 2 The establishing of a German front o f the Dvlna (Duna river for the winter. Advance Continues. Although the Russian forces of Gen. Ivanoff have received fresh supplies of ammunition and the reformed ranks nre delivering furious counter attack? from strongly prepared positions, the German ndvancc continues successfully. North and south of Molodeschno. particularly in the region west of Vilelkl. the tlghtinff Is of the most sanguinary character, with the Russians suffering er.ormous losses. The Russians are trying to

rlece the German lines, hut all their efforts have been failures. VMna'4 strategic importance was Hrst recognized by Napoleon on his invasion of Russia. The city has 170.000 inhabitants and lies upon the great Warsaw-PetrogTad railway. For many weeks it has been the ohject of a terrific offensive drive by the Germans, Field Marshal von HinJenburg personally directing the operations. Hallway lines from Kovno, to the northwesv and Rovno to the south, alr-o enter the city. Vilna has been the headquarter of the government of Luthiana and was strongly fortified, although it was not considered

a fortress in the military sense. It is one of the "keys'' to Petrograd.

(CONTINUED FROM

a mile above the city.

" 4A zeppelin! a zeppelin!'

crv on every sicie.

"Immediately there was another muffled explosion and then the antiair craft nuns and the machine tfuns mounted in the parks and upon the roofs of the buildings let loose. The sharp crsickle of the machine nins and the hifih anirle cannon sounded clear and near against the heavier roar of the busting bombs. "Over toward London Wall a sheet of flame broke forth, showing In vivid contrast with the darkened city. Above the slare of the flames volumes of smoke could be st'en rolling upward. "In the neighborhood of Piccadilly Clrcuis. whore all the light?, even those in the theaters, had been put out. the rumble and jar of explosions sounded. A fircat Spectacle. "It was a spectacle such as the human eye had never seen before. The

first trnceF of terror soon cave way

to curiosity and many persons stood out In the street?, exposed to the danger, fascinated by tho sight.

"At the first alarm the manager of

a moving picture theater In Totten

flam Court road, warned all the patrons to take refuge in the cellar, but

Instead most of them flocked Into the streets where thev stood enthralled

by the scene.

"In Wood st. a bus filled with 16

persons, was snrurk by a bomb and i'ovrn to bit?. I believe all were killed or mortally maimed. "Around Trafalgar square a s'.lrnt throng stood In the streets watching the display of fireworks, unmindful of the dangers to which they were exposed. "It wns certainly a wonderful display such as Ixmdon had never seen. 'Hell's fireworks' describes it best of all. "Most of tho bombs, dropped dur-

hovered over the city burst while .hcy

were from 100 to 200 feet above tho

roof tops. Jets of green and red fire spurted in every direction while frag

ments of Fteel rained upon the adja

cent territory.

Guns Arc Useless. " 'Where are the aeroplane patrols ?' everyone was asking, but no aeroplanes came into view to give battle to tho airship. Only the hiE,h angle guns were in action and these were useless, just as they proved useless in all tho other German raids. "Despite its great distance in the air the zeppelin was in plain view in the Hares from the searchlights and

in the lurid glare of the bursting rockets which the high angle guns fired against it. In the purple light of the earch!lght. puffs of white smoke, which at time almost hid the Intruder from view, could be seen. There were no lights on the zeppelin and apparently all its fixture had been painted Mack to make it as Invisible as posible against the sky. "Many Incendiary bombs fell along London wall. The buildings that number 1 and number 3 were shattered and set on fire. Altogether three fire were started. "It was afterwards said that three zeppellns took part but I saw only one. "I afterwards learned ths.t many bombs fell around the Woolwich arsenal, a great arms making plant on the outskirts of the city, but they failed to do any damage. It had doubtless for Its double object the destruction of the arsenal and the strik lng of terror Into London. In the first It filled, but In the second It part

ly succeeded. No One reels Hafc. "No Londoner feels safe 'vhen he goes to bed at night. No ore knows but that during the night a zeppelin may be loosing bombs above his house top. London and the east eoast are being aroused to fear. "In the raid on the night of Sept. 8 the casualties were 10G of whom 50 were killed. This shows the deadly power of the zeppelins and it is no wonder the people are bc-coming afraid. "When tho zeppelin decided to

draw off after shelling Iondon's heart it did not leave in a direct easterlydirection, but ascended until it was lost In the night clouds and then steered away." The details of the Iondon air raid brought here today on the Rotterdam were the first to be received, as they have been held up by the Hritish censor. They show that the situation in London and on the ca.st coast, as a

result of the continued nir activities of the Germans, is much iimr- dangerous than was supposed. Th British censor lias allowed only in i. rcr information relatives to z 'ppd;r

i attacks to Irak out.

A woman passenger n the Rotterdam sjid it -was reported in Lndr that one zeppelin bomb had struck s hospital !nr cripple. 1 children in Ron. elon, but Mr. Kabn and other pa.M-n. ger: had not lie.-.i.i of this.
