TEXAS GUARDSMEN
 PROVING LOYAL Hesitant Troopers Are Now Joining Colors; Only Al
 Face Courtmartial
;By Review Leased Wire. }

SAN ANTONIO, May 27.-A further <eduction in the number Of Texas guardsmen who did not respond to the call to mobilize for service on the border was reported tonight at Fort Sam Houston. Of the original 116 who were cited for courtmartia,l only fl remain who still are liable for tri- al and it is confidentl expected that before the hearing opens' next Thurs day the number will be reduced to less than dozen.
 Twenty-six members of the national guard who had been held as prisoners because of their refusal to enlist. were mustered in today and assigned to various companies preparatory to leaving for the border. The original 116. it developed included not merely those guards who refused to enter the federal service, but those who were absent from the company stations at the time the call was issued and did not receive notification promptly Messages have been received from a number who are on their way to re- port for duty.

 at St. Paul.
(ey Review Leased Wire.)

ST. PAUL, May 27.-James J. Hill, railroad builder and capitalist pioneer lay in a serious condition at his home here tonight, after having undergone critical operation latte this after. noon. Eminent surgeons, nurses, members of the Hill family and a few close friends kept vigil through the night Archbishop John Ireland, long time friend of the Empire Builder. '' was among those who visited the sick room.
 Anxious friends of Mir Hill tonight gained some slight encouragement from the following statement issued by the doctors:
 MT. Hill rallied quickly and fav- orably from the operation. There was no alarming fever and his tempera' ture was very good. We are only fearful because of the patients age The crucial point in his condition will not be reached for a few days. But anticipate no trouble. MT. Hill is suf fering with a carbuncle on the poste- rior of his thigh, which has resulted from bowling"

RAILROADS MAY LIFT LID ON SHIPMENTS OF
 LIQUOR INTO ARIZONA
Arizona Republican Thinks Common Carriers will Soon Decide that They Can Haul Liquor Into State.

Liquor shipments will be accepted by railroads running into Arizona under the personal use decision of the state supree court. This will De the substance of an announcement by the railroads within three days, it was learned yesterday on substan- tial authority, says the Arizona Re publican.
 That he could take no stand on a matter which, he said, was news to him, was the statement of Attorney General Wiley Jones, when appraised of the situation.
 There will either be no attept to combat the move of the railroads, or else the roads will win any such com
 bat, was the firm opinion of the Republicans informant.
 Believing that no test cas would settle the matter of personal use and that each attempt to import liquor under the supreme courts interpre- tation of the law would necessitate a separate trial, the common carriers have shied wide of accepting ship ments. A good deal of attention has been paid to the matter by the rail road attorneys and by a trauc asso- citation, representing all the carriers. When the personal use decision was announced and furore of expecta- tion, not to say glee swept the tsate, the railroads hurried round with q lot of wet blankets and cooled tons and tons of ardor by being interview ed on the subject of not accepting shipents. Since the the matter has simmered, the phrase personal use" has become firmly fixed in the Ari- zcna vocabulary as a synonym for booze, and the attitude of expectancy has been gradually but surely relax ed Now, probably by this screed. it will be more or less tautened. eith- CT until the next cold douche is ap- piled or else the matter is settled to the certain joy of the lover of his tipple
 Statements that the railroads had decided to announce willingness to carry liquor for personal use were definite enough. But as to details well, there siply were none. Questions as to the facts concerning shipping" and bringing" in the eyes of the law, the attorney general was non committal. though he believed the supreme court had held that if it is legal to bring in mite of liquor it Is also legal to have it sent in.
 A week ago the state was flooded with circular letters from an eastern brewery promising-nay, guarantee lng-to ship barreled beer into the state at a figure that made bootleg prices look like the. list of munitions stocks. With the hopes. tl,fs an nouncement campaign also raised a perfect fever of thirst.

PERSONAL USEvLAW
 WILL BE INITIATED
 BY THE ''DRY" FORCES
A. R. Bucknam Receives the
 Word that Temperance
 Federation will Father Law to Provide for Shortcomings

Word has been received by A. R. Bucknam, temperance leader of Co chlse county, that constitution amendment calculated to provide for the shortcomings contained in the present prohibition law, is being drafted by the Temperance Federation of Arizona. Mir. Bucknam has re- turned to the Warren District after a sojourn in Douglas.
 He understands that the proposed amendment will provide for personal use. thus meeting the demands of a large majority of citizens who are convinced that only through the adop- tion of personal privilege legislation can the cause of true temperance be promoted. The Following. letter con. tained the first news of the promised action:
 MT. A. R. Bucknam.
 Dear friend The Executive Com mittee of the Federation had a meet ing Monday, and decided on an amend ment @ be initiated. It is not jus; what l wanted. but as you say in your letter. it is necessary for us to unite and l believe that whatever the majority of the Federation decides is best should receive our united sup ] port, whether it meets withour ap proval or not. The proposed amend 1 ment will, l suppose, be printed in g day or two, and then we shall have chance to consider it's provisions
 Very truly yours,
 JOHN WIX THOMAS.
 President Temperance Federation of Arizona"
 An initiated measure providing foi personal use will subscribe to policy for which Mir. Bucknam has fought valiantly from the first. After years of experience in the temperance cause, he found that enforced tota abstinence works incalculable harm to the prohibition. MT. Bucknam is receiving congratulations from all sides for his part in the work framing the policy of the proposed amendment

KAISER TO FORCE
ALIENS TO FIGHT
All Male Foreigners in Germany Five
Years to Be Regarded as Ger
mans and Must Enlist.

London, March 16.-An Amsterdam
dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph
company says the municipal authori-
ties in Germany have been instructed
to take census OF all neutral foreign
ers who have lived in each city for
more than five years. Male foreigners
who have lived uninterruptedly for
five years in Germany will be consid-
cred as having lost their previous citi-
zenship and will be regarded as Ger
mans and therefore liable to military
service. These men will be enrolled in
the army and put to work in offices,
releasing men of the landstrum for
service on the fighting line. 1t is said
that there are 10000 foreigners of
fighting age in Germany.

THE WAR
TODAY

One of the frequent pauses,
which has characterized the Ger
man campaign for Verdun is again
in evidence.
On the entire western front ar
tillery exchanges are still in
progress, but the German crown
princes army has halted either
to rest or bring up reinfOrcements
for a continuance of the assault
on Verdun.
Apparently there Is anticipation
on the part OF the French that the
next German move may be made to
the southeast of the fortress In a
thanking operation, as the French
guns have been extremely active
along the heights Of the Meuse
overlooking the WOeyre plain.
1t is Officially declared in Berlin
that the change in the head OF the
ministry Of marine, involving the
retirement of Admiral Won Tirpitz,
who is succeeded, by Admiral Won
CapelIe, signifies no change in the
German governments submarine
policy.
The Russian advance toward
the Mesopotamian frontier is
rapid and they expect soon to be
in touch with the British forces.
The Russians are said to be with
in fifty miles of the last difficult
pass which will place them in the
rear of the Turkish Bagdad army
and their object is to cut the rail-
road to the north, thereby prevent
ing the Turkish army from getting
supplies, and cooperate with the
British against Bagdad. The Rus
slams are making progress
against the Turks along the
Black sea coast toward Trebf-
z0nd, having captured a number
of officers and men and several
machine guns. In MesOpOtamia
the British have attacked an ad-
vanced position of the Turks, bay.
0nneted a considerable number
and captured others.
The Italians and Austrians con-
time to shell one another Wig
orously and occasionally the in
fantry takes a hand but no ma
terial changes in positions have
been reported.
In East Africa the BOer Gen.
eral SHUTS is pressing the Ger
mans, who are reported to be
retiring southwark along the Tan
gerry.
