Strict Orders Given the Watch
men in All the Government
Departments.
WARNED BY ACTIVITIES
OF THE BOMB THROWERS
Visitors With Packages Subjected to
Scrutiny of Armed Watchmen
as Precautionary Measure.

Apparently warned OF possible
activities ol bomb-throwers in
connection with the European
war and munitions movements III
this country, orders were issued
today for strict surveillance OF
all suspicious characters in gov
ernment buildings. In the State,
War and Navy departments,
which occupy the same building,
across the street from the White
House, the orders went into effect
this morning.
All the watchmen have been ordered
to arm themselves. Originally these
watchmen were supposed to be armed.
but they had been allowed to discard
their weapons Now, however, all are
armed. and instead of remaining at
certain place during the day they are
compelled to walk beats" around the
building.
Strict Scrutiny Of Visitors.
Every person entering the State, War
and Navy IS supJCSI ~ 'hS
closest scrutiny. Any one carrying
bundle or a package is stopped and
forced to give a good explanation for
entering the building.
A watchman was stationed in the
open court of the building, whose in
structions were to watch the two en-
frances opening to the west and the
east, and to search every person whose
appearance was in any way suspicious,
particularly if the person happened to
be carrying a package.
The watchman's orders were positive,
and even persons carrying newspapers
and passing through the court on their
way elsewhere were stopped and ques-
toned The orders came direct from
Col W. W. Harts, superintendent of
the building.
Probably the Result of Threats.
It is believed that the precautions,
following so closely similar safeguard
ing steps taken to protect the Wash
ington railroad tunnels from possible
are the result of confidential
reaching the government
as to threats or plans involving pos
sibility of destructive efforts.

Ten Millions by March.

Earl Kitchener, the British secretary
for war, in conversation with Greek
officials in his recent visit to Athens.
is reported to have declared that Eng
land will have by next March 4,000.-
900 soldiers under arms and will be in
a position to arm and provision 6,000,-
900 Russians, and that consequently 1T
would show. great stupidity to think
the war would end otherwise than in
complete defeat for Germany.
This information is contained in an
Athens dispatch to the Havas Agency,
which adds that Lord Kitchener adj
mitted that the declaration Of war
found the entente powers insufficiently
prepared for SO long a campaign, but
said that the allies had known how to
utilize the time that has since elapsed
to complete their military prepara-
tionS.

|MR. WILSON BUSY
ON HIS MESSAGE
President Aims to Have Docu-
ment Ready for Public
Printer Tomorrow.

President Wilson's message to Congress
had not been completed today, although
the main portions of it were read to the
cabinet at the regular meeting yesterday.
The President was in doubt this morning
whether he would be able to finish the
work upon the document tonight. He
feared that he would have to work far
into the night, and the prospects were not
bright that he would be free of the duty
tomorrow, although his aim has been to
have the paper in the hands of the public
printer tomorrow. That official was at
the White House today. He has a force
of men ready to begin work Immediately
the copy is in his hands.
1t was said today that the Presidents S
personal plans for tomorrow, which the
White House will, as far as possible. OBJ
serve as a holiday, are dependent largely
upon his finishing the message tonight
No decision had been reached as to what
he would do or where he would go. That
the President and his family. including
Mrs. Gait and her mother. Mrs. Boiling.
will gather for Thanksgiving dinner in
the great dining room of the White House
was arranged some days ago The cook
Of the White House has received the i'm
mense Kentucky turkey, forwarded by
South Trirnble. clerk Of the House. and
this splendid bird will be the centerpiece
Of the Tha nksgiving table.
Sticks to Old Typewriter.
The President is understood to be re-
constructing portions of the message
which did not suit his fancy. He is
doing all the work upon his own tyne
writer, somewhat aged and out-of-
date machine, for which he has a fond
ness He has resisted all suggestions
that he should have new and modern
machine.
The President intends to go into a
somewhat long discussion of the pre-
paredness question and the necessity
for steady, regular training of a large
number Of men to supplement the regu-
lar army in time of war. He will
strongly support the continental army
proposal of Secretary Garrison. The
raising of revenue to meet the enlarged
army and navy will be discussed in a
general way, but no specific recon-
mendations are to be made. That, any
how, was the understanding in the cab
met meeting yesterday.

Unwilling to Risk Check.

He quotes Baron Ishii as follows:
Thus far we have not considered the
eventuality of sending an army to Eu-
rope. but if there is occasion therefor
Japan will immedia tely send in one eX-
pedition a very strong army. Japan
does not intend to risk check
In regard to the supplying of arms
for Russia by Japan the foreign min
lister is said to have remarked:
Russia does not need men, as only
third of the men mobilized have
been armed. BY the end of the month
Japan will have done much toward
arming completely the other two
thirds"

WILSON SEES HOPEFUL
SIGNS IN MEXICO

WASHINGTON. March 16.-Condi-
tlons in Mexico generally are regard
ed by President Wilson as much less
In n fcrment than they were few
days ago. He told callers to-day that
tho American representations and
notes had been effective and that he
felt that there now was more security
for foreigners.
Keeping open the railroad between
Mexico City and Vera Cruz the Pres
ident regards as an awkward task,
because the Carranza forces held the
Vera Cruz end while their enemies
are In possession at Mexico City. II
the road north from Mexico City Ia
the American border were kept open
as an avenue of egress for foreigners
he said the Washington Government
would be satisfied.
President Wilson stated no had no
doubt that those guilty Of killing
John b. McManus, an American citi-
zen, recently, would DO punished
With punishment of the offenders and
payment Of Indemnity to the family,
the Incident probably will be closed.
Conditions among Catholic priests
and nuns in Mexico were described as
/. ".Deplorable" by Bishop Currier o!
Matanzas, Cuba, who talked with Sec
retary' Bryan. He recently travelled
from ,Havanakto New York with sev-
eral Spanish bnd italian priests ex-
PEELED by Gen. Obregon. The priests
were In rags and told him that unde,
