NOT TO SEND VOLUNTEERS.
Japanese Abandon Project Of Army
for Europe, Government Dissenting.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
TOXIC, March S.-The project to or
ganize and send a japanese volunteer
army to Europe has been abandoned
The promoters explain that they failed
to get the governmental sanction.
which was judged necessary.
The plan was rejected by the military
authorities for two reasons. The hrst
was that II it were carried out it would
affect the strength of the army in war
time, as the volunteers would natur-
ally come from the ranks of reservists-
The second reason was that the sur
plus arms of the army having already
been sold to the allied powers, the army
had no arms and ammunition available
for the volunteers.
The promoters then decided to work
for the dispatch Of one regiment, N
stead of two divisions, and applied 10
the army authorities for approval, only
to meet again with failure.

were alone and unsupported.
Many surrendered in consequence. On
the whole they are under the impress
sion that they were grossly mishandled
by the Prussian officers.
THE treatment of their own wounded
by the Germans was callous to a de-
gree. Although numbers were lying in
front of the trenches in many places,
no effort was made to pick them up.
AT last our men were compelled by
pity, at considerable risk to them
selves, to endeavor to reach these
wounded. but the Germans continued
to shoot and they hit some of our men
while engaged on this errand of mercy,
although their intentions were obvious.
There is reason to believe that many
of the wounded were Bavarians and
Saxons. while the men in the trenches
were Prussians"

The police have been unable to find
anything giving the slightest clue to
the identity of the woman.
The woman, the police say. probably
was about sixty years old. She was

Day Breaks Cloudy, But With
a Promise of Fine Weather;
Cool Wind Blows From Sea

HAVANA, April 5.-The day of the
worlds heavyweight championship
fight between Jack johnson and Jess
Willard brok with overcast skies in
Havana and a decidedly cool wind
blowing in from the sea.
When the sun rose it was behind q
solid ban> of clouds. but as the day ad-
vanced blue patches of sky appeared
here and there, bringing hope OF fine
weather to the fighters, to the fight
promoters and to the thousands OF men
who had journeyed to Havana to wit
ness the big battle.
Havana has been stirred by this event
more than by any other thing of re-
cent years and dawn found the city
fully awake to the unusual occurrence
of the day. The downtown fight head
quarters was crowded with ticket
rival in Havana of wealthy Cubans
from all over the island.
johnson prepared coolty to defend
his title His only indication of ner-
yousness was over the exact moment
Jack Curley and other hackers of the
fight would arrive at his headquarters
with the $4,000 cash named in the ne
gros contract as signed In Paris. This
very important event was set for IL
o'clock. Johnson chatted and laughed
with the men about him during his
preparations for the trip to the ring
as If he had not care in the world
This supreme Self-COnndenCe is rated
as one of the champions best assets,
especially against a man of nervous
temperament
Willard Plans Slow Fight.
Willard retired early last night and
declared this morning he had had a re-
freshing sleep. He said he was glad the
day of the fight had arrived, as he had
been training nearly nine weeks. first
having got in condition to fight at
Juarez March 6.
1t was apparent that Willard was
1oath to discuss his plan of campaign.
He did say, however. that he proposed
to go slow and that he expected to take
4 good deal of punishment during the
first ten rounds, hoping to wear john
son down and get an opportunity to
land a Knockout blow.
Willard was confident If he could
land two or three rights on Johnson
the fight soon would end. Willard said
Johnson's ability as a boxer would
give him opportunity to make a better
showing in the early rounds of the
fight. but never In his ring career had
Willard felt any discomfort from any
blow delivered on his body and he did
not fear Johnson's jabs. Willard seem
ed very fit, indeed, when he left his
quarters for the park The inf1amma-
ton to his eye from the splash Of
chloroform liniment last night has
yielded rapidly to treatment. and 1t Is
not believed 1t will have any i'll ef-
fects.

Very Few Children Lost.

Very few children became lost from
their parents on the White House
grounds. and it proved one of the hap
piest egg-rolling Easter Mondays. The
parents seemed to take unusually good
care of their children this year, per-
haps because the grounds were damp
and they feared that Johnnie and Willie.
to say nothing Of Helen and Mary,
would catch cold.
SO many of them brought blankets
for their young charges which was
very thoughtful and worked very we'll,
indeed-as long as the children chose
to stay upon the blankets. But 1t must
be admitted that the children didn't
stay on the blankets very well.
One collarless. tagless and nameless
brown bulldog was the only one of
his genus to get within the grounds,
and he was soon hustled to the fence
and quietly dropped over.
The White House grounds are to be
cleared Of children at o'clock. as fast
as possible. and II 1t does not rain
the concert by the Marine Band will
begin at $50 on the ellipse.
The outlying parks Of the city drew
large crowds all day. Out at the Zoo
vehicles were barred, and the children
had full sway. The popularity of the
Geological Park was only equaled by
the Soldiers Home grounds. which
early received q large influx Of chill
dren and their parents.
