 ceedings for Their Return.

S., were captured on the American side of the border They had crossed the ice on the St. Cro1x river, two miles above this city from the New Brunswick shore. Three of the men had fled to Aver Junction, where they were about to board a westbound train, when H. c. Gillis, United States immigration inspector, arrested them. Another was caught here.
 in this city said that formal proceed Ings would be started at once through the administration at Ottawa and the British ambassador at Washington seeking the return of the alleged fu- gitfyes to Canadian soil. The inmi- grafton department, however, 1t is un- derstood, will first pass upon the status Of the men as applicants for admission to the country. A special board of inquiry IS expected to be ordered soon
 The escape from the camp at Am herst was effected by tunnelling for 150 feet under the walls to a point beyond the sentry lines. It was said at the camp that the subway was a remarkable piece Of engineering work involving much labor

COAST LINE OF UNITED
 STATES OPEN TO ATTACK.
Major General Leonard Wood Tells the
 Senate Military Committee.

{ Washington, Jan. 19.-Major General Leonard Wood told the senate mili- tary committee today the coast line of the United States was. open to attack by any we'll organized foreign army, despite its equipment of forts, mines and submarines, and that the oceans formed no serious barrier to invasion. He declared that in the country;s pres- ent state of utter unpreparedness for war, a trained force of 150, 900 men could infiict incalculable damage be- fore an army could be assembled to meet it.
 Events of the European war clearly demonstrated, the general said, that the sea was the best medium for the
 movement of troops. and he pointed out that force of 126, 900 men. fully equipped, had been landed at Gallipoli from a single expedition of 9s ships against submarines. mines and an un- derwater screen of barbed wire that fringed every available landing place. troops cannot be improvised to meet regulars, General Wood declared the fundamental basis of any policy of adequtae national defense must be the principle that with suffrage goes an obligation for military service. Such policy had been advocated by George Washington. he said, and If it had been adopted Canada would have become Dpart of the United States in the war Of 1872.
 aoniy sonce in our history have we been prepared for war; he added That was immediately after the Civil war, when we had a million and a half trained soldiers

POVERTY IS THE PRINCIPAL
 CAUSE OF IMMoRALiTY According to Report of Illinois Senate White Slave Committee.

Springfield, H., Jan. 1s.-Poverty is the principal cause of immortality, a minimum wage for girls and women should be $S week, and unreguiafed conditions of domestic employment render the home, inc many cases, a breeding place of commercialized vice. according to the Illinois senate white slave committee investigation report, made public tonight.
 Thousands of girls, it says are driven into prostitution 'sbecause of the sheer inability to keep body and soul together on the low wages they re- ceive." The system of domestic em- ployment in America is condemned in positive terms. HUnregulated condi- tions of domestic employees, uncertain hours. absence of definite social status and lack of creative opportunities rem der the home in many cases for the women servants a breeding place of immortality" says the report.
 Investigations disclosed that more women of the underwo1d fell into dis honor from domestic employment than from any other work. Of 1S1 girls sent to the state training school at Geneva, H., who had worked for wage prior to commitment, the committee found that 115 or 63.55 per cent had been engaged in domestic service
 Eight dollars week is fixed by the committee as the least amount that will meet the necessary items of a bare living for girl employed in a large city.

GERMANY's PROPOSAL IN
 LuslTANIA CASE REJECTED.
Because of Omission of Acknowieds- ment of Wrong Doing of Submarine Commander.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Germany's proposal to incorporate In the settle ment Of the LAsftania case reserva- ton of any admission of wrong doing by her submarine commander is un- derstood to have been rejected by the United States. A new proposal from the Berlin government is expected monentarily, however, and the con- troversy may possibly be closed by elimination of all merits or demerits of the actual torpedoing of the vessel, Germany agreeing to pay an indemni ity for the American lives lost, reiter- ating expressions of regret and calling attention directly or by inference to the contention that she already has given the most effective disavowal by making assurances for the future.
 If in the new proposition there should be another such reservation or any attempt to justify the sinking of the Lusitania on the ground that the act constituted a reprisal in retaliation for the British blockade of Germany, that also probably will be rejected. There were indications tonight, how ever, that Germany believes that the United States might under certain circumstances, accept a proposal emitting mention of the legality or iliegaIfty of the act. One of some what similar nature resulted in an agreement over the sinking of the steamship Arabic.
