WHERE AUSTRLANS HURL
BOMBS AT SURGEONS
OPERATING ON WOUNDED
BY William G. Shepherd.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent. J
SALONIKA, Greece, Feb. 24.-(By
Mail. )-Seventy-five girls from Can
ada, standing among their hospital
tents on little hill seven miles out
from Salonika, looking into the sky.
Above them circling Austrian
aeroplane shells; three terrific expo
sions on the earth nearby, heavy
thud of one shell that didn't ex-
plode and that would have killed a
tentful of wounded men if it had--this
was my first glimpse of No a Ca
nadian Hospital. The Austrian Kill
Ter sailed away.
In the name of God and humanity,
why did he try to kill the nurses
and surgeons and sick and dying men ?
You feel these things more when you
see them for yourself than when you
read about them. In one of those tents
at the time, not hundred feet from
where an Austrian shell fell, great
surgeon from Canada was toiling
with his knife on the vitals of a
young officer, using all the skill and
science that 20 centuries of study have
afforded the art of surgery, and one
of these Austrian shells might have
wiped out that scene, actors and all
the surgeon, the man who was hold
ing the merciful ether cone, the nurs-
es who were standing nearby with
the surgeons tools and the senseless
man himself. Or might it not, with
the strange trickery of shells killed
all except the man on the table and
life him to come to his senses, with
no kindly ether pouring into his
lungs and with the vital operation
only half done. The possibilities
are too terrible to consider. Not a
shell hit the great group of hospital
tents. But the point is that the
Austrian tried to hit them.
You feel strongly. as have said,

with a dangerous weapon. James J.
Lake, manager Of the Carroll House, at

man William II. Adams is nursing a dog
bite on the right leg. All Is the result
of an alleged alteration between Lake

The trouble started when Barr, in
guiding his motorcar to the curb be-
fore the Carroll House, accidentally
scratched the paint on Lakes car, which
was already parked there, the police say.
Then events followed so fast that Police
man Adams, who broke up the racket,
hardly knew what was happening until
reserves from the First precinct station
came changing pell-mell into E street in
response to a telephone call from some
excited bystander.
Although Lake was badly used up in
the encounter with Barr, who is alleged
to have struck him with an automobile

SHORTAGE OF MILITIA
SUPPLIES is DENIED

Secretary Of War Bakers attention
was directed yesterday to shortages of
equipment and other difficulties which
State troops In general and the New
York militia IN particular were expert
encing In preparing for their service on
the border. He issued a statement ex-
planning that there was no shortage of
necessary supplies for the State troops,
but that there was some delay in getting
equipment to its proper destination and
that the War Department was doing its
utmost to provide a remedy.
There are, Of course, some delays"
said Secretary Baker, owing to the ne
cessity of sorting out the consignments
OF material from the warehouses, num-
bering and packing 1t and getting II
aboard express trains to its proper des-
tlnation. But the War Department is
straining every nerve to eliminate these
mistakes and get the State troops sup

BAKER EXCUSES
ia GUARDSMEN
War Secretary Releases Navy
Yard Recruits, Who Will
Make Ammunition,

In liae with the new policy of the War
Department, to avoid building up the Ma
tional Guard with employees OF the van-
Gus navy yards whose services in shell
manufacture are more valuable than
their services as militiamen, Secretary
Of War Baker yesterday excused ia
members of the District Guard who have
been employed at the Washington Navy
Yard.
This action was taken at the sugges-
ton of the Secretary of the Navy, who
said yesterday he was acting on the
same principle as the British and French
authorities, who kept men working on
ammunition instead of sending them to
the front
Their work in making ammunition
was more important than their shooting
it." he explained.
How far the exceptions in the National
Guard will extend to others employed in
service OF the government connected with
war supplies, has not yet been decided.
