son of $4,000.

Petrograd. April 1s.-Trebzond. the
most important Turkish city on the
Black Sea coast. has been captured by
the Russians. The news is contained
in an official communication issued here
tonight. which says:
"Trebzond has been taken. Inc
united. energetic efforts of our Cauca-
sian army and Black Sea feet have been
crowned by the conquest Of this forti-
fed town. the most important position
on the Anatoian coast.
"Our valiant troops, after the san
culinary battle of the l4th on the Kara
Dere River. pressed the Turks without
respite and surmounted incredible OBJ
stacles. everywhere breaking the fierce
resistance Of the enemy.
The well combined action Of the
feet permitted the execution of most
hazardous landing operations and lent
the support Of its artillery TO the
troops operating in the coastal region.
work OF CoOrdlnatlOh'
Credit for this fresh victory also IS
psrtly due to the assistance given the
Caucasian army By the troops operas-
ing In other directions in Asia Minor.
BY their desperate fighting and heroic
exploits they did everything In their
power to facilitate the task OF the de-
tachments on the coast.
A statement issued few hours ear
lier said:
.'In the coast region our detachments
pursued the Turks and occupied the
village Of Drona. ten yersts six and
half miles, east of Trebizond.
West of Erzerum our troops. after

Puts Peace Strength
of Regular Force
at 250,000.
REJECTS EVERY
CUT IN FIGURES
Bill Passed Without a Roll
call and Now Goes to
Conference.
Prom Trs Tribune Bureau

Washington, April ia regular
army of 250,000, and which, with re
serves and militia. will aggregate
! 100000 men, was voted by the Sem
ate tonight.
The amendment authorizing the
President to ,i.lcrease the army at
once or at any time TO 100000 men
was proposed by Senator Brandegee,
of Connecticut, a Republican, and
was adopted after a spirited debate,
in which Senators Lodge and Hoke
Smith urged that if anything should
be done in the way of preparedness
il should be done at once. The
amendment was passed by vote Of
43 to 81. Both New York Senator's
voted in favor Of the increase, which
is not to be accomplished by the fill
ing out of skeleton commands, but
by the creation of additional regi-
ments of cavalry, infantry, artillery
and other arms. The amended Sen
ate bill was then passed without a
record vote.
The final size Of the regular army
will depend on the conference COM
mittee appointed to adjust the differ
ences between the two houses Of Con-
gress. The House bill provides for
a regular army Of 100000 men, while
the Senate bill goes up to 100000.
In this connection the vote on th-
Kahn amendment in the House is I'M
portant. BY change of only twelve
votes the House would have favored
an army Of 100000 men.
Considering the regular army as fixed
at 100000 men, the bill passed by the
Senate would soon provide force OF
1000. 900 men with more or less train
ing. There would be 2S0.Ooo militia,
2s1 900 in the volunteer army. and the
regular army reserve, winch unuel tnls
bill would swell very rapidly.
Five-Ycar Enlistment Term.
In connection with the reserve OF
men who have served in the regular
army an amendment adopted changing
the term of enlistment is important.
This provides that the full term Of en-
listment shall be five years, OF which
two years shall be with the colors and
three in reserve. instead Of four with
tho colors and three with the reserve,
as proposed in tho committee bill. or
four years straight with the colors. as
is now the law. This amendment was
proposed by Senator Nelson. Of Min
nesota, and was adopted unanimously.
Another important amendment adopt
ed to-day increased the coast artillery
By 5000 men at once. instead Of spread
ing such an increase over several
years.

other evidence that steps, seemingly
emanating from government sources.
are being taken persistently TO fan
into flames the anti-American feel
ing in Mexico is circulation of re-
port that Germany and the United

WILL DELIVER LAST u. s. WORD
ON U-BOATS At JOINT SESSION
WITHDRAWAL HINGES
ON GERMAN CRISIS

Washington. April 49,
That the German situation
would have a bearing on the
impending decision as to the
governments course IN
Mexico was thought prob
able to-day. though no Off
cial would talk about the
matter.
If a break in diplomatic
relations with Germany is
foreseen by the Adminlstra-
ton, it is virtually certain
the troops will be recalled
from Mexico Immediately.
They would be needed at
home. as military prudence
would require that steps be
taken to prepare for any
eventualiiy.
