WILL BE CORPS OF EXPERTS
Washington, May 7. Nine regi
ments of army engineers; composed
exclusively of highly trained railway
men, will be the first American troops
sent to France.
They will go "at the earliest pos
sible moment," the War department
announced today, for work on com
munication lines. Nothing will be
given out as to when and from where
they will sail because of submarines.
The new forces will be volunteers,
raised at the nine great railway cen
ters of the country. Each regiment
will be commanded by an engineer
colonel of the regular army, aided by
n adjutant. All other officers will
be railway engineers or officials.
The expedition will have a total
strength of between 11,000 and 12,000
men, each regiment being composed
of two battalions of three companies
each.
Recruiting Points.
Every branch of railway workers
necessarv to the building or opera
tion of lines will be represented and
the War department expects a re
sponse to the call that will insure a
force already trained to the minute,
an army of experts in railway opera
tion. Recruiting will be directly under
the colonel of each regiment. Re
cruiting machinery of the regular
lervice or the National Guard will be
placed at their service and it is hoped
that the .enrollment of the trorjpswill
take little time. The recruiting points
will be New York, Chicago, St. Louis,
Boston, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Atlanta,
San Francisco and Philadelphia. :
Officials believe the railroad broth
erhoods will co-operate in . the re
cruiting efforts. The railway com
panies already are organized for co
operation! under the Council of Na
tional Defense.
War Department Statement.
The department's statement!,, fol
lows: '"The War department has sent out
orders for the raising as rapidly as
possible of nine additional regiments
of engineers, which are destined to
proceed to France at the earliest pos
sible moment for work in lines of
communication. It is requested of the
press that no speculation or rumors
regarding the force be carried other
than that given out. All details re
garding the force will be given out as
fast as compatible with the best public
interests."
It was explained that these engineer
forces were not in any way connected
with the army organization planned
by the War department and already
made known. They represent an ad
dition to the total military prepared
ness program upon which the country
is now engaged.
Because of the technical nature of
the tasks before them it is regarded
as probable that no preliminary mili
tary training will be necessary for
these troops and that they can be sent
forward as rapidly as they can be re
cruited, officered and supplied with
personal' equipment.

Speakers..
RECRUITING OFFICERS GO
Norfolk, Neb., May 7. (Special
Telegram. Beginning at Columbus
this morning good crowds attended
meetings held' by the lecturers and
demonstrators on board the "Pre
paredness Special."
Weather was fine and attendance
somewhat lessened by the fact that
farmers felt Imperative duty to utilize
every minute in fields, but interest in
domestic science and gardening work
was great and the town meetings were
alt large and enthusiastic, especially
those for school children.
The special made long stops only at
Columbus, Humphrey, Madison 'and
Norfolk, but lecturers were dropped
off at smaller' stations between and
at all stations crowds gathered at the
depots to welcome the visitors.
At Humphrey, where a two-hour
stop was made, a band met the spe
cial and d long procession escorted
lecturers to various meeting places.
At Enola, where the train paused iust
long enough to let off three speakers,
a band was playing and a fine crowd
waved flags and cheered.
Each speaker made repofts of the
numbers addressed and the day meet
ings ending at 6 this evening showed
upwards of 4,500 in attendance. The
special remained at Genoa over night
and the three meetings in town were
largely attended. An interesting fea
ture of the stop in Genoa was a visit
to the Genoa Indian institute, where
the Hereford herd famous throughout
the west was highly complimented by
dairy and live stock experts.
Recruits Are Signed,
Accompanying the special are rep
resentatives of the army and flaw and
they report recruits in every city visit
ed. Lieutenant Governor Howard
meets the train at Fullerton tomor
row and will remain with it several
days. . i
Whatever reeling ot antagonism
there may be on the part of farmers
towards being addressed by "book
farmers was soon dissipated, tor the
lecturers made no effort to tell farm
ers how to farm, but impressed upon
them the necessity of doing what thev
know how to do just a little bit more
efficiently this year than ever before.
Professor Franzcn and Miss
Loomis of the State College of Agri
culture are prime favorites among the
tanners and larmers wives in tins
section and their meetings were large
ly attended. Dean Burnett is expect
ed to join the party tomorrow and
remain with it the rest of the week.
Unusual activity is manifest m the
corn propaganda and the corn acre
age of this section will be 100 to 150
per cent greater than any time during
the last ten years. Oats are showing
splendid stand all along the line.
Anthrax is Epidemic
In Carter County, Okl.
Ardmorc, Okl., May 7. Six hundred
head of live stock are infected with
anthrax in Carter county, Oklahoma,
according to Carl Russell, federal
farm agent here. Veterinarians under
his direction are making a desperate
effort to check the spread of the mal
ady, he said, and are vaccinating peo
ple as well as horses and other animals.
U. S. Prepares for
Three Years' War
Cleveland, May 7. Newton D.
Baker, secretary of war, who was

a three-year war at least and that
he has little hope of an early

Senate Eliminates Embargo
Section Clauses Objected

Secret Debate.
PRESIDENT IS CRITICISED
Members Say Consideration Is
Unnecessary if Taken Into
Executive's Confidence.
SUPPLIES GO TO TEUTONS
Washington, May 7, After five
hours debate behind closed doors the
senate eliminated modifications in the
embargo section of the espionage bill
to which President Wilson objected.
' Senators understood the I govern
ment has information to show that
under present conditions information
of military value is getting to the
enemy and that the censorship sec
tion would stop it. '
Retention of the embargo section
was supported by facts showing that
despite all precautions supplies are
getting into Germany through neutral
'countries.
Senator Martin, the democratic
leader, told senators President Wilson
had called him to the White House
and said he would be embarrassed in
dealing with the question of supplies
getting into Germany if the senate
passed the embargo section as amend
ed with restrictions last week.
Senators Lodge, Fall, Reed, and
others declared that the senate would
never have been put in the position
of having to reconsider its ario" if
the president had called in leaders
before the bill was sent to the capitol
and explained the need for this legis
lation. Portugal Rents German
Ships to Great Britain
(Correspondenca or The Associated Press.)
Lisbon, April 20. Sixty of the seventy-six
German merchant steamers
which were in Portugese ports when
Portugal entered the war and which
were promptly seized by the govern
ment have been turned over to Great
Britain on a rental basis. England
has rented the ships for $7,000,000 a
year, to be paid after the war.
The renting of the ships to Eng
land has caused a good deal of criti
cism, particularly at this time when
the lack of merchant ships is sending
up the cost of living and disturbing
the whole range of Portugal's exports
and imports.
One of the most serious results
from the lack of shipping is the coal
famine. Ordinarily coal costs about
$6.50 a ton, but the price now is $37
and $40 a ton.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, May 7. (Special Tele

agreement made by attorneys repre
senting Mrs. Emma B. Manchester,
supreme guardian of the circle, and
Mrs. La Rocca and the faction that
has been trying to oust Mrs. Man
chester fro moffice.

her articles to Mrs. Manchester for
censorship.
Attorneys for Mrs. Manchester are

shall $8,000 additional spent for other
items connected with the suit.

referee for two weeks, is allowed $300
for his services.
Stout, Rose and Wells, John J.
Sullivan and Arthur Mullen were at

What Decision Means.
The dispute grew bitter with the
split in the convention at Memphis
in April. That convention divided
into two factions, one headed by Mrs.
Monchester and the other by Mrs.
Mary La Rocca.
The controversy was referred by
the supreme court to Judge Root as
referee. His investigations would
have included the taking of tsctimony
from about seventy-five witnesses, liv
ing in twenty states. Just as he was
about ready to start on this big task,
a true was agreed upon.
The truce in effect provides the af
fairs of the circle shall remain in
statu quo until the meeting of the
convention at Atlanta in July. At that
time the Supreme Forest will take
action.

one in London and the other here
appeared today as one of the first
actual steps to co-ordinate the power

While the inroads of the subma

essential to conserve every ship for
the most needed freight and the only
way that this can be done is to have
the allies submit their needs to a

Small Percentage of Grain
Washington, May 7. Headed by
Gustave Pabst, a delegation represent

was heard today by the senate agri

The actual amount of grain used in
brewing, principally barley, they told
the committee, represents less than
three-quarters of 1 per cent of all
the grain produced in the United
States.

, Paris, May 7. The Germans con

morning in attackj on the west of
the French., front in the region of
Laffaux and in the afternoon on the
eastern section from Braye to Cra
onne. The French held the whip hand
and beat off wave upon wave of the
enemy's dwindling reserve, with ter
rible losses.
More than that the Frenchmen,
after hours of stiff fighting, still had
the energy to dash forward and main
tained fresh positions in the regions
naturally fortified.
German Flank In Danger.
The desperate resistance of the
Germans and the frequent counter at
tacks in force are comprehensible
when it is realized that if the French
capture Allemant and Pinon they will
outflank the whole line running north
to St. Quentin. General Nivelle, how
ever, has no sinecure, as he is con
fronted by the famous Siegfried line,
a system of fortifications on which
the Germans have lavished weeks of
work and which is of the most formid
able type. ' '
On the right wing German bat
talions streamed out of Filain wood

French; in several places tfley have

possession of this road which enabled
the Germans to hold up the French

Britons in Bullecourt.
British Headquarters in France, Mar
7. (Via, Lcndon.) The British have
pushed their way well within the town
of Bullecourt. Hand to hand fighting
has developed there.
Renewed fighting broke out about
Bullecourt today. The British, who
had been holding positions south and
east of the village, where thev had
been violently attacked during the last
four days, moved forward just before
dawn in a general attack upon the vil
lage itself. "
There had been patrol lighting in
Bullecourt before this, but todav's at
tack was cjf an enveloping nature. It
met with stubborn resistance, but
steady progress was being made as
this dispatch was written, and khaki
clad troops have passed well to within
the town, which Jies absolutely astride
the Hindenburg line, the front trench
and two systems of support trenches
all being within the village limits.
British Official Report.
London, May 7. After sharp fight

west of Bullecourt and have taken
a number of prisoners, according to
an official statement issued by the
