GRAND CROSS BESTOWED
ON VICTORIOUS GENERAL
BERLIN, Jail. 25.—The Grand
Cross has been bestowed upon Field
Marshal von Mackenzen by the
Kaiser. Accompanying the presen
tation is a personal letter to Mack
enzen from the bmperor thanking
him in the name of the German
people for his wonderful victories
“under God”.
The presentation is very signifi
cant as the only other wearer of
this covetted decoration is Marshal
von Hindenberg.
BERLIN. Jan. 25.—The General
Staff reports further gains on both
banks of the Aa river where the
fighting is continuous and heavy.
The Russians are rushing reinforce
ments to strengthen their lines in
this section and additional attacks
of great violence are expected on
both sides.
PETROGRAD, Jan. 25.—Says a
General Headquarters bulletin: The
Russians have been engaged in
heavy fighting on the east where
they have successfully withstood
the efforts of the Teutons in their
attempted advance over the frozen
marshes on the Riga front. The
fighting has been of a desperate
nature and the Teutonic losses have
been very great.
The Teuton artillery has been
ineffective and the Russians have
held every position which they
sought to capture.
LONDON. Jan. 25.—Conflicting re
ports are arriving as to the battles
on the Riga front, fairly good proof
that the situation is a draw. Simi
larly patrol engagements on all
other fronts show that the situation
is tightening into a deadlock.

WASHINGTON, I). C., Jail. 25.—
Senator Borah directed a stout left
hander at Wilson today when he
introduced a resolution asking the
re-affirmation of the Washington
and Jefferson .words of wisdom
against tlie United States entering
into entangling alliances.
All the senators well understood
the reason of the introduction of
PLKASAXT CARD SOCIAL.
The Miners Home Club held an
other very plesant card social last
night. The following were the
prize winners:
Among the ladies, Mrs. Mary
Smith, 1st, and Mrs. Louis Stadie
second. Among the men C. C.
Croks 1st and Chac. Kammerrick
second. 20 tables were set.

i this resolution which wras character
ized as a flank attack upon the Pre
sident’s peace policy and the wis
dom of entering into a League to
Enforce Peace. The resolution
upon beirtg read was met promptly
by a motion to lay on the table
which was done without debate.

could get busy with the railroad le
gislative program.
It is admitted that on almost
every hand the administration meas
ures will meet with filibustering
and that it will never pass its rail
road legislation as desired.
The fight to lead the senate demo
crats is still acute between Walsh
and Martin. Kern, the retiring
leader who was defeated for re-elec
tion in Indiana, has been asked to
support one or the other but fails
to make a sign that he desires
either. The followers of the party
i suggest that it be left to Wilson
r to decide, but most resent this as
serting that Wilson has entirely too
much influence in the Senate as it
is.
