PRICE THREE CENTS. NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, SATURDAY, APRIL 17,1915 —TWELVL PAGES. STABLY - RUSSIAN GRAND DUKE SHOT IN ABDOMEN BY GEN. BARON SIEVERS Incident Follows Heated Collcqy; Regarding Defeat of Russian Teath Army in East Prussia. GERERAL REPORTED PORTED 10 HAVE TAKEN HIS OWN LIFE Olaims i | Aeroplane Berlin German Dropped Shells in Greenwich, in Metropolitan District of London— French Battleship Shells Turkish Position Near Egyptian Oity of El- Arish—Allfes Gain Ground. I A report is published by a Prussian newspaper that Grand Duke Nicholas, Russian commander-in-chief, has been | shot in the abdomen by General Baron Bievers, commander of the Russian Tenth Army, which was defeated and | driven from East Prussia last Febru- ary. The general is said to have com- mitted suicide. There is no confirma- tion of this report, official or other- wise. The official German today, statement of evidently referring to yester- day’s raid over England by a German aeroplane, says shells were dropped in Greenwich, in the metropolitan dis- trict of London. Despatches from London yesterday sald the aeroplane | approached no nearer than thirty miles from the city. Unofficial ad- vices, from Berlin are that consider- able damage was done by the Zeppe- lins which raided England twice this week and that -officers and men on British patrol boats were killed or wounded. Shells Turkish Position. The French minister of marifde an- nounces further naval operations against the Turkish forces which pro- | ceeded against Egypt. It is said a French battleship shelled a Turkish 'position near the Egyptian city of Bl- Awish, which is clnsu to the border of Palestine. Two persons ln Strassburg were s'ightly wounded; otherwisé no dam- age was done by the bombs from the | airship. ‘There were no important engage- mients in France yesterday, and in the east operations are being delayed hy the spring thaw. The Berlin official announcernent says a small position near Arras was lost to the allies, but | that other engagements resulted (o the advantage of the Germans. Greatest Battle in History, From such scattering reports as are permitted from the eastern front it is becoming apparent gradually that the greatest battle of the war—at least, so far as concerns the number of men engaged—Iis being fought in the Carpathians, along the 115 mile front from Bartfeld, in northern Hun- gary, to Stry, in Eastern Galicia. This line, roughly, parallels the boundary between Hungary and Galicia, running through a difficult mountain region through which the Russians hope to break a way into | the heart of Hungary. German war correspondents style this battle the greatest in the history | of the world, and it is estimated that 8,500,000, men are taking part, cording to the German reports, lussian advance, which a week seemed to be threatening the vity of Hungar has now checked definitely It is said that the' Russian losses in killed, wound- ed, sick and prisoners are 500,000, Russian reports throw little light on the situation. The official state- ments of late have mentioned de- tached engagements, in which some local successes have been claimed. Newspaper despatches from Petro- grad are similarly restricted, It ap- pears probable, however, that the Russians have sustained at least a temporary check This is indicated by the statement in the latest official Petrograd report concerning the bad condition of the roads, which hinders military operations. Russian Grand Duke Shot. the ago Berlin, April 17, via Wireless Tele- graph to sayville, N. Y.-—The General Anzeiger of Duisburg, Rheinish Prus- ela, says it learns “from an absolutely unimpeachable source” that the re- ported sickness of Grand Duke Nich- olajevitch, commander-in-chief of the Russian forces, was due to a shot in the abdomen fired by a late General Baron Sievers, of the defeated Rus- sian tenth army. The General Anzeiger says General Bievers was summoned by the Grand Duke to explain the defeat of the Rus- sian Tenth army. A heated colloquy took place, the newspaper says, and the Grand Duke gave General Sievers a hox on the ear. ‘Phe latter there- upon drew a revolver and wounded the grand duke, subsequently turning the weapon upon himself.
