GERMAN CONSULAR ATTACHE PROVES
 AN EASY MARK
Financed Scamp Who Double Crossed Him, but Took No Part in Dynamiting, Insists Won Brincken.
(By Review Leased Wire)

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-Cross examination of Lieut. G. w. von Brine ken, German consulate attache on tri- al with Consul General Franz Bopp and five others for conspiracy to dy- namite entente munition shipments in 1915, brought out today that von Brincken received but $50 a month from the consulate, although Louis J. Smith, whom the defense claims was yon Brincken's subordinate, received from $25O to $500.
 Smith, as government witness pre- Eiously testified that he was paid by the consulate to blow up tracks, tun- nels and ships on Puget Sound and in Canada. The defendan consul geRer- Il and aides have insisted that he was merely an investigator for them.
 United States District Attorney John w. Preston, after inquiring Searchingly into yon Brincken's finan- ;ial affairs, said:
 'Is it not true that you conspired with J. II. yOn KOolbergen, an absen- ee defendant in this case, to blow up 'hese shipments and to divide the re- ward?"
 Absolutely no!" yon Brincken re- oiled

MILITARY SYSTEM OF ARGENTINA Is
 MODEL FOR U. s.
Measure Soon to Come Before Congress Would Keep Half
 Million in Army and g. 5OU, ,0O0 in Reserve.
(By Review Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Argen- tina'S military system is serving as a model for the universal service bill now being considered by a committee of the army general staff. Officers fa- miilar with staff opinion said today that while details had not been com pleted, the measure was designed to keep half a million men under train- ing with 2,500,O00 trained reservists subject to call
 It probably will be three weeks be- fore the bill and estimates of cost are ready for submission. The House military committee has asked to see it and it will be sent to the capitol for the committees information though there is no indication that it will meet with any sort of endorsement from the administration. Secretary Baker has not indicated whether he woul da- pprove or disapprove.
 The main feature of the staff bill will be its provision for one year of in- tensive military instruction for all youths subject to it's terms. It is eX- pected that exemptions due to phy- sical disqualification and for other req sons, including possibly the conscrip- tion of certain men for work in indus trial plants necessary in war times, would leave available for army train ing between 450,000 and 500, 900 of the 1,000,000 boys who reach the age of IS each year
 In fixing upon a year as the mini mum for training the general staff has followed the theory that the United tat hac fn fOr of defense It has been stated to the House by Major General Scott that all though European nations give every soldier at least two years of hard work before turning him into the re- serve, because of the geographical po- sition of the country year will sui flee here. The argument advanced to support this view was that there would be sufficient time to give finish ing touches to the military education to reservists after war had broken out and before invading expeditions could be landed in force.
 In broad way the outline Of the general staff's continental army plan of last year would be followed in dis trfbuting tactical units of the reserve into 19 infantry and six cavalry divi- sions. Reservists would be liable for two years service in this force before passing into the unOrganiZed reserve.
 The result, when the system has been in operation a number of years would be to give 5OO,0OO men under arms and in process of training a million more trained. equipped, organ i ized and ready for immediate muster as first line troops and behind these the unorganized but trained reserve numbering more than 100000. This l is the basis on which estimates of cost will be made by the general satff com mittee.

not to be deprived of their liberty.
They will enjoy their peace. not a Ger

has still to hasten. The people are fine

800 Carranza Troops IN
Conflict With Americans

Washington, D. c., April 1S.-Presi-
dent Wilson and Secretary Baker had
before them today the first direct Off
cial information Of the attack on
American soldiers at Parral. 1t was a
report from Brigadier General Per
shing, and it indicated that the Incl
dent was far more serious than was at
first supposed. The report said that
800 Carranzo soldiers Joined civilians
in the attack. The casualties were two
Americans killed and six wounded, in
Guiding Major Frank Tompkins, slight
ly wounded: 40 Mexican soldiers killed,
one civilian wounded.
Major Tompkins led his command
into the city upon the invitation of a
messenger from the Carranza forces.
Once inside the city, according to
Major Tompkins' report, the troops were
set upon while en- route to the camping
ground that a been assigned to them.
The troops had been received with ut
most courtesy by the military and
civilian authorities.

Washington. d. G., April 1s.-As the
hours pass without confirmation of the
story of the finding of the body of
Francisco Villa. Washington grows
more doubtful.
Villas body was to have reached
Chihuahua City by special train some
time last night, but American Consul
Letcher has not even forwarded the
rurnors as to Villas death, which must
be circulating there.
The Mexican embassy here had no
additional information. Its last report
from Consul Garcia at FL Paso said
he was seeking confirmation.
State n war department officials
refused to comment today on General
Pershings report of the Parral fighting
which is much different from the YER
sion transmitted by General Carranza
can troops be withdrawn. The Ameri-
can report shows that Carranza troops
not only Joined in the attack upon tho
little detachment of Americans. but
followed them several miles as they
withdrew to avoid a clash.
Seek Further Details.
1t was Indicated at the state depart
ment that further details would be
sought from American officers before
a reply would be semi to General Car
rama. Secretary Lansing planned orig
inally to deal with the Parral incident
as a separate question and not in the
reply to the note suggesting the recall
of the American expedition. The reply
to the Carranza proposal for withdraw
al was still in preparation today.
1t was reasserted today that should
the body be identified as that of Villa
the expedition would come out of Mex
leo at once. No instructions have vel
been sent to Consul Letcher or Gen.
eral Pershing, however, as to the iden-
tification to be required. None will &c
forward until these officials transmit
some report.
