BULL MOOSE READY
TO RETURN TO FOLD
Express Hope They And Re
publicans Can Agree on
Candidate.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE Progress
siye party will hold its national con-
vention June Z, in Chicago, concur
rently with the national convention
OF the Republican party, in the hope
that both may agree on the same can
didate for President. This action
was decided upon today, by the ma
tional committee of the Progressive
party.
Forty.seyen Of the as states were
represented at the meeting. Before
adiourning the committee adopted a
declaration OF principles in which the
Administration OF President Wilson
was criticised for its alleged, failure
to deal adequately with national hon
or and industrial welfare and the Pro-
gressive party went on record as faY-
oring a complete preparedness pro-
gram consisting OF military armament
as we'll as mobilization of all the
countTy's resources with view of the
unification of American citizenship.
A message was read from Col Theo-
dore Roosevelt, urging the necessity
for adequate preparedness, which was
enthusiastically applauded.
Progressive leaders declared that
there would be no amalgamation with
the Republican party even in the
event of both parties choosing the
same Presidential candidate. The Pro
gressive party plans to nominate ma
tionaI ticket at its convention in June.
Many of the party leaders declared
that If the Republicans will nominate
Roosevelt, or any other man who is
regarded as unobjectionable, and will
incorporate in its platform the salient
features of the Progressive principles,
both parties will unite on the same
candidates in Chicago next June.
In discussing the declaration Of prin
ciples issued by the committee, Chair.
man George w. Perkins Of New
York. said:
"The declaration issued by the Ma
tional Committee means just what it
says. 1t was prepared with great care.
There is nothing of bluff OF threat in
1t. 1t is an honest and fair statement
OF the situation.

'ENGEISH POLICE
DOGS IN warfare.
Were Taken to Russia TO
Hunt Criminals But
Enter Red Cross.

HEADQUARTERS FIRST RUS
SIAN ARMY, Dec. 16.-English po.
lice dogs, Of which there are six att
tached TO the Twenty First Flying
Column OF the Russian Red Cross.
have proved their worth in many in
stances on Russian battlefelds. In
one night near the village of Kute
VICINITY OF Lovitch) these wise ami
mails hunted out in grain fields over
which the battle surged and brought
relief to forty.nine wounded men.
The dogs had been brought from
London by authorities of the city Of
Vernaya for use in tracking down
thieves and murderers with which the
place was infested. Within few
weeks they enabled the police TO
round up these criminals. One dog,
who still retains his English name
Jack" slightly Russianized, was sew,
eral times sent to MOSCOW, ktet and
Odessa to similarly aid the police OIL
those cities.
In times of inactivity of the troops
the dogs are frequently used to con-
vey dispatches f:om one section Oh the
column to another and always per
form their task with unerring fidelity.
During battle even under heavy FIRE
they search out the wounded by scent
and the sanitars may be certain the
man to whom they are led Is still
alive since the dogs instinctively ig-
more the dead. Having found a wound
ed man the animals will carry his cap
or mitten back to the sanitaA who
follows to the spot. Each animal
wears a pair Of miniature saddle bags
in which he carries TASKS Of brandy:
In appearance the dogs resemble the
Airdale OF the Irish terrier. An ex-
hibition of man hunting was given Tor
the benefit of the correspondent at
Headquarters of the First Siberian
Corps. A soldier was directed to
hide in a clump OF bushes two blocks
distant in a field. The santtar re-
leased the dog and directed him in
the general direction of the spot.
After making several wide circles the
animal caught the scent made straight
for the hiding place at top speed, re-
turning presently with a glove. The
sanitar tucked small package in the
saddle pocket and away went the dog
ON his return journey. The sanitar,
to carry out the deception, followed
and appeared to assist the hiding man
while the dog looked on with appar-
ent interest. II

between ire aristocratic, high church
rector of St. Martin s-in-the-Lane and

shower of flying sparks. The senti.

duel ends up makes one fairly catch

woman, appears to fine advantage. es-
pecially in the stage scenes in the
