ARMY NEEDS MEN.
The Situation Calls for Extraordinary
Efforts of officers to Recruit.

Washington. January 3.-Not in re-
cent years, except in war times, has
the army been so badly in need OF men
as at present. A recent circular adj
dressed to all officers of the recruiting
service. made public at the war depart
ment, calls attention to the fact that
recruits are needed in large numbers
for the coast artillery. Recruiting Of
ficers are enjoined to redouble their
efforts to secure recruits qualified for
the military service.
Officers on duty at the war depart
ment admit that the situation is one
calling for the most extraordinary eff
forts. Particular emphasis is given in
the circular to the necessity for devel-
oping to the utmost of recruiting in
the large cities, and recruiting officers
have been asked if more officers should
be sent them to assist in the work.
1t is declared at the war department
that the present prosperity and the
labor famine of the country are more
or less responsible for the inability to
get new men, and it also was stated
on account of the lack of the oanteen
a great many men were refusing TO
enlist.

several sensational field goals were
thrown by nearly every one of the five

Gompers to Help Shea.

Chicago, January 3.-President Shea
and the other men on trial with him
were much cheered today when they
received a cablegram from Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, now in Havana,
saying that he would make every eff
fort to come to Chicago, and would
leave Cuba ON the first available boat.
1t was announced today that the de-
Tense will make another effort to show
that the men now on trial on the
charge of conspiracy made every eff
fort to end the strike by arbitration,
and could therefore not be guilty OF
the charge made against them. Evil
dence along this line has already been
ruled out by Judge Ball.
