Sentiment in Congress to Amend
Draft Law so as to Take
Them In.
DETAILS OF CHOICE
KNOWN BEFORE NIGHT
Drawing Likely Before End of AVeck;
Crowder to -Make Statement
Today.
Washington, -D. C, July 17. Sen
timent is apparently growing in con
press in favor of amending: the con
scriptions law 50 IIS to make aliens
liable for military service or other
wise to relieve the requirements
placed under the present allotment on
communities with large foreign pop
ulation. Bills to this end have been pre
pared in both senate and house, but
the administration has not indicated
that it will favor any change. Many
officials hold to the opinion on the
other hand that to compel aliens 'to
serve would be a violation of interna
tional law.
Seven States Not In.
All but seven of the states had re
ported completion of their local con
scription machinery tonight, encour
aging officials in their hope that
drawing of lots to determine the or
der of liability may be held before
the end of the week.
Four states reported ready during
the day, and the Avar department has
been informed that in those remain
ing to report only a few local dis
tricts are missing.
Although no details have been re
vealed, it was learned tonight that
the plan of the drawing to be held in
Secretary Baker's Office virtually has
been completed and that an announce
ment on tho subject may be made by
Provost Marshal General Crowder to-
morrow.
May Know Today.
Secretary Baker's final approval for
the plan is yet to be given, but .Gen
eral Crowder may reveal enough of
the details to guide newspapers in
preparing to publish the result and to
inform registrants what facts they
must ascertain in order to know their
exact position on the liability lists.
The states from which reports of
complete exemption arrangements
were arranged during the day are
Utah, Alabama, Ohio and Virginia.
Reports are still to come from Illi
nois, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi,
New York, Missouri and Pennsyl
vania. More Complex Arrangement.
There are indications that a more
complex arrangement than has yet
been outlined publicly will be em
ployed in the drawing in the interest
of perfect fairnes.-.
As far as can be told now, every
registrant will have to be informed
not only of the serial number placed
on nis card by the local exemption
board, but also of the exact number
of registrants in his district. Other
wise he will be unable to know until
he is ordered before the board what
his order of laibility is.
Given his own number and the total
number of registrants in his district,
any registrant can figure out quickly
what place ho occupies in the line
as soon as the- results of the lottery
are announced.
IT there are 1,500
registered men,
above that will
blank in that
drawn, and the
every serial number
be representee! Dy a
district when it is :
rotation numbers of;
the drawing will pass them over.
Thus, if No. 1,423 should be drawn
first, No. 1,5(19 second and No. 1,247
third, the order of liability in a 1,500
district would be No. 1,42S first and
No. 1,247 second.
Eased on Actual Showings.
While officials of the provost mar
trial's office refused today to discuss
charges of unfairness in allotment of
quotas made yesterday in the senate,
it was pointed out that the poulation
estimates of the census bureau upon
whitfh the allotment was made were
the registration. Under the law the
bureau had to consider the fluctuation
of population since 1910, the last cen
sus, and the war department had to
count in aliens, in making allotments,
even though they are exempt from
service.
Officials believe that in the mam
this plan was fair, but they realize
some inequalities may result because
of the lartre alien population in some
-
sections.
Two plans hav been suggested for
changing the law so as to eliminate
this ineoualitv reapportionment of
J
quotas with the alien registrants left
out of consideration, or amendment of
the draft act so that aliens will not
be exempt. Both suggestions have
many supporters in congress and it is
not unlikely that one of them will be
given administration approval.
Holds Up Measure.
Today Senator Chamberlain, chair
man of the senate military committee,
revealed that he had drafted a meas
ure to make all aliens, wherever pos
sible under existing treaties and ex
cepting enemy aliens, subject to draft.
The senator s,aid he probably would
not introduce his bill until he had se
cured some opinion from the White
House or the war department.
Meanwhile Representative Dent,
chairman of the house military com
mittee, submitted to Secretary Baker
a bill introduced by Representative
Rfcgers, of Massachusetts, proposing
that the draft quotas be apportioned
according to the population of "mili
tary eligibles," instead of according
to total population. Mr. Dent said
that if the secretary approved his
committee probably would report the
bill favorably.
At the war department there has
been no indication whether either of
these proposals will have the backing
of the administration.
Department officials feel the dis
cussion in congress, if it develops into
action, may indefinitely postpone the
raising of the national army. The
suggestion, therefore, has been made
to some .senators interested that the
present draft be allowed to proceed on
the basis planned and that the ques
tion of corrections be threshed out
between now and the time of the next
draft.
DRAFT FIGURES TO
BE REARRANGED
- Lincoln, Julv 17. The fact that
Hawaii has enlisted 1,990 more men
for the army than the draft calls for
has necessitated the reconstruction of
the figures affecting Nebraska. Lee
Metcalf, secretary to the governor,
has been busy today in an effort to
rearrange the figures for Nebraska,
which means that because of the over
enlistment in the islands each county
in this state will be benefitted its pro
portionate share; not very much, but
just enongn so that air. Aletcaiie nas
had to c'o over the entire state appor
tionment and make an apportionate
reduction for each county.
It has also been discovered that one
county in the state, Hamilton, en
listed more men than the quota as
signed, 5.54 per cent. These figures
had to be taken into consideration,
with the end in view to making an ap
propriate reduction in all counties.
Authorities at Washington have
notified Governor Neville that the
quota of men to be raised by Nebras
ka this time is 13,900. Deducting the
5,691 men who have enlisted in this
state in the National Guard, federal
or some other service, leaves the num
ber to be drawn from the draft 8,209
Deduct from the over-enlistment in
the islands the quota for Nebraska of
24, leaves the total to be drawn by the
draft as 8.185 in the state. The 5.54
per cent of over-enlitsments in Ham
ilton county will not affect the state
tot-l, but will lower each county s
quota a very little.
SAVE A MILLION
TONS OF GOAL BY
REDUCING TRAINS
New York, July 17. Passenger
trains representing 16,267,028 miles
of train service a year have been
the railroads of the
country to facilitate maximum tran
sportation of freight for successful
nrosecution of the war. Fairfax
M
Harrison, chairman of the railroad's
war board, announcea tonigni. j.ms
was done, Mr. Harrison pointed out,
to savp man nower. fuel and motive
power to be applied to the transports
tion of necessities. Cutting of this
vtlume of passenger service, he as
sorted, "will make available for
other nurnoser. over 1.120.000 tons of
coal."
"The railroad systems in the east
ern department," the statement add
ed, "have cut out 8,598,696 miles of
passenger train service, thus saving
716,113 tons of coal per year.
"The Pere Marquette and the Wa
bash, the only roads reporting as
yet from the central department, have
eliminated together 846,600 miles of
service and plan to eave 49,555 tons
of coal."

French Again Repel Strong German
Attacks fi the Vicinity of
the Teten.
An important success has been won
by the French in the Verdun region.
As the result of an attack last night
all the positions west of hill 304,
after the attack of June 29 'and 30,
were recovered. German prisoners to
a number not yet ascertained by the
French high command were taken in
the action.
The Russian armies are continuing
their vigorous offensive in eastern
Galicia and other groups of the em
pire's vast forces are apparently
ready to spring into activity at vari
ous points along the 800-mile front.
London, July 17. The admiralty
announces the capture of four Uer
man steamers by British destroyers
in the North Sea. The steamers are
the Pellworm, Brietzeig, Marie Horn
and Heinz Blumberg.
The captured steamers are all
small, the largest being the Brietzeig
of 1,495 tons gross, owned in Ham
burg. The Pellworm, 1,370 tons
gross, also owned in Hamburg. The
Marie Horn, 1,088 tons, from Schles
wig, and the Heinz Blumburg, 1,226
tons, registered from Hamburg.
Two other German steamers were
with the four vessels later captured
when the group was signalled by the
British war craft. Al six made for
the Dutch coast and two of them
reached the shore. These two were
badly damaged by gunfire.
"We gained ground slightly during
the night northwest of Wirnemon,'
the war office announced today. "In
the Nieuport sector one of our raid
ing parties encountered a large party
of the enemy in front of the German
positions. After a sharp tight our
troops drove back the enemy to their
lines and bombarded them in their
trenches."
Paris, July 17. German troops
made a strong attack on the French
positions in the vicinity of the Tetot,
but were driven back, leaving a num
ber of dead, the war office announced
today.
VIENNA BITTER ON
DEPOSED HOLLVEG
Vienna, Via Berlin and London,
July 17. Although the Vienna Press
generally regrets Chancellor von
Bethmann-Hollweg's fall, several
newspapers today bitterly commented
on the former premier's tendency to
ward compromise on all Questions.
The Zeitung sarcastically pointed out;
that "Hollweg swallowed with equal
facility the conservatives' principles
of annexation as well as the demo
cratic principles of no annexations.
'"Although he described treaties as
scraps ot paper, the editorial con
tinued, "he doubtless would have been
ready to swallow the opposite prin
ciple of sanctity in order to save his
job. His marvelous stomach could
have stood it but it seems too much
for others."
The Neue Freie Press declared
TT t1
nouweg mignt nave known he was.
signing his own death warrant when;
he approved the kaiser's Prussian1
electoral program."
ASSISTANT SECRETARY
OF THE INTERIOR DIES
Washington, D..C, July 17. B. O.
Sweeney, assistant secretary of the
interior, died suddenly at his home
here today from angina pectoris. He
had suffered with the' disease for:
some time but remained at his task

splendid physique was undermined.
Mr. Sweeney had been assistant
secretary since 1914, when he left
his law practice at Seattle to join
Secretary Lane, lie was 06 years
old' and a native of Missouri. He
practiced law at Trinidad, CoL, and
served in the Colorado legislature be

HEAVY LOSERS
ON WEST FRONT
Enemy Losses on the Western Front
Total 350,000 Men in Three
Months.
French and British Offensives of
Spring Months Cut Big
Inroads.
i
the
French Front, July 17. Severe in
roads have been made on the strength
of the German troops holding the
line on the Franco-British front dur
ing the attacks delivered on them in
the months of April, May and June.
An estimate made on well established
averages demonstrates -that their
losses must approximate 350,000 men.
Before the spring operations of the
French and British began, the Ger
man iront nad been divided into two
sections entirely independent of each
other. One faced the French between
the Oise and the Swiss frontier and
was under the command of the crewn
prince. The other confronted the
British from the North Sea to the
Oise and was commanded by the Ba
varian crown prince.
At the beginning of the Franco-
British offensives, the Germans had
at their disposal on the whole front
stretching from the North Sea to
Switzerland 147 divisions, of which
105 were actually in the front line
and forty-two in the rear ready for
employment at any point where
their help was needed. These reserve
divisions were about equally distrib
uted in the northern and southern
sectors.
On Russian Front.
The situation on the Russian front
permitted the Germans to detach
some of their active divisions irom
that side, and at the same time they
formed several new divisions, which
ey brought ix the French front so
that on June 20, the number of their
divisions facing the French and Brit
ish was 155, in spite of the fact that
they had replaced the active divisions
brought from Russia by landwehr un
its sent from this side.
The strength of the German forces
on the r ranco-tJritish iront, cannot,
however, be calculated exactly from
the number of their divisions, for not
fewer than 112 of the 155 have been
thrown into the battles at various
times and twenty-three of them have
been twice engaged, thus totalling in
reality 135 divisions which have been
;n action.
As a general rule, a division is not
withdrawn from the firing line until
it has lost one-third of its effectives,
and thus the German loses may be
lairiy accurately gauged. r or in
stance, a German division nowadays,
when at full strength, numbers ap
proximately 7,500 infantrymen.
Therefore the 135 divisions which
have passed through the fire haye in
all probability each lost 2,500 killed,
wounded and prisoners, making in all
347,500 casualties in the infantry
alone in less than three months.

HE CRIES "SLACKER"
New York, July 17. A parrot,
mascot of a battleship, trained to cry
'slacker" when his tail is pulled, was
enlisted in the campaign here in navy
recruits. A petty navy onicer ap
peared on Fifth avenue -with the bird
on his shoulder and whenever he
passed a man of military agev pulled
the bird's tail. The officer marched
from Twenty-third street to the land
battleship "Recruit" in Union Square,
and soon had trailing behind him a
crowd of shop girls, who every time
the bird "shrieked "slacker," riiaae
an effort to induce the man thus ad
dressed to fall in line and enlist.

THE GERMAN GOLD
Washingtno, D. C, July 17. Re
ports that the activities of the Indus
trial Workers of the World in the
west recently had been financed by
German gold have failed of substan
tiation after an exhaustive investiga
tion by agents of the department of
justice.
Officials said today that they be
lieved nearly all the German money
in this country has been located and
that virtually none of it has been
used in that way.
A number of arrests were reported
today from various sections of the
west of members of the I. W. W. un
der the present alien enemy proclama
tion. It was said that the percentage
of German sympathizers found in the
organization is higher than ia many
other organizations.
