ENGLAND EXPECTS
CONSCRIPTI0N FOR ALL
Kings Approval of New Military
Bill Sought, Is Belief.

London, April 2S.-Much comment
was caused in political circles tonight
By an official announcement that King
George made a journey from Windsor
70 London this afternoon to confer
with Premier Asquith and Earl Kitch-
ener. and Immediately returned to
Windsor.
The War Council OF the Cabinet sat
for two hours this morning and
assembled again this afternoon for an
other long session, after which 1t was
understood to have adjourned until 20
morrow morning.
Whether another Cabinet has arisen
is not known. II is believed that the
Kings visit TO the Premier and War
Minister had 10 do with the securing
Of the Kings approval Of the new mill
tary bill.
The universal opinion Is that there
no longer is any alternative to the
introduction OF general conscription
bill. with possibly a clause giving an
other month for a trial of scheme for
the voluntary recruiting of married

Two Turn to Aid United States.

II was learned that two of the in

Tombs. have agreed to turn govern
rnent witnesses and reveal all the work
ings of the making of fire bombs in Dr.
Scheelc's factory in Hoboken and on
some Of the German liners in the har-
Dor notably the Friedrich der Crosse.
When the grand jury filed out OF
court the Fay trial was resumed and
several detectives who trailed Fay,
Scholz and Daeche, and later psrtlci-
pated in their arrest, were put on the
stand.
Louis G.. Fuchs, employed at DR..
Iust's Sanatorium. Butler, NJ Y, where
DR.. Herbert A. kienzle and Engelbert
Bronkhorst. who. with Max Breitung:
make up the Fay group, met. told OF
purchasing fifty sticks Of dynamite for
Bronkhorst. Some of the explosive
was used by Bronkhorst in water pipe
work in the sanatorium grounds. the
witness said The government con
tends that at least eight sticS found
their wav into the possession OF Fay
and Scholz.
John A. Saldarini. a government wit
ness. who stored his automobile at the
yerage kept for time by Fay and
Scholz. on cross-cYamination proved a
good cornerstone for the defence the
accused will try 10 build. He said that
he saw some tanks in the garage Ike

ARE INDICTED
Two, Accused in Friedrich

Lieutenant Robert Fay and his CO
defendants, Walter Scholz and Paul

irterposc an ingenious defence to the
governments charge that they con
spircd to blow up munition carrying
ships. They will admit that the seven
huge steel tanks were intended as the
containers of deadly bombs, as the gov
ernment charges, but they will plead
that they were not constructing the
bombs to blow up munition ships. but
were seeking to perfect a bomb which
they intended to patent in this country.
During the cross-eXamination Of one
Of the governments witnesses ycster-
day. ex-Judge Henry L. Unger made it
plain that he would try to prove that
his clients were just enthusiast'c in
ventors and not conspirators.
Bombs Called Wicked
The witness was James +. Moore
a government machinery and ordnance
expert, stationed at Fort Wadsworth'
He testified that he had examined the
workings Of the four foot bombs which
Fay and Scholz had in their rooms and
found them "practicable, ingenious and
wicked" He explained that they could
be primed 20 explode under the stern
Of vessel at time determined by
the plotter.
"But the mechanism which you have
just described is original, isn't IT :"
asked Mr.. Unger.
81 wouldn't say it was original said
Mr. Moore.
"But it was such that patent could
be granted on it?
"I'm not familiar with patent laws"

which has been investigating German
bomb plots entered the court and the
Fay trial was suspended while join,

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys

urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is ir-

relief two or three times during the
night. When the kidneys clog you must
help them flush off the body's urinous
waste or you'll be a real sick person
shortly. AT first you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region, you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness stom-
ach gets sour. tongue coated and you feel
rheumatic twinges when the weather is
bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts: take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for few
days and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid
Of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for gen

to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calonel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches. dizziness and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel '1oggy' and
''heavy." Note how they clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spir-
its. lOc and 2sc box. All druggists.
