Recruiting Left To

Washington, Oct. 7.-Dissatisfied
with recruiting Of national guardsmen,
Secretary of War Baker today author
lied commanding officers of the army
commands to discontinue recruiting
service at their discretion.
The decision was based on a recon-
mendation by the general staff. Re
cruiting has been disappointing. Great
difficulty has been met in trying to
fill up the national guard regiments at
the border or ready to leave for the
border.
The department had built an express
i've system of recruiting, with regular
army officers and militia officers co
operating. The stations, it was admit
ted, have not met expectations.

Hops Selling Freely
At II and ll12 Cents;
Car Shortage Affects

The hop growers association of this
city reports fairly active sale of hops
at the present time. The price ranges
from II to liz cents, pound and the
demand is good. A ear load was sold
yesterday and scarcely a day passes
without recording sale.
The ear shortage on the Southern Pa
cific is bad feature of the situation
since it is tying up the money of grow
ers on sales already made. The money
is not due from the purchaser until the
hops are aboard the cars.

Omitted Press staff correspondent
The Hague, Sept. 17.-(By mail.) -
The Dutch government only two months
ago sounded the european belligerents
on the prospects of peace, the United
Press was informed today. Every bel
ligerent except France, expressed will
ingness to enter an informal discussion.
Frances reply was such fiery refusal
that one person who learned its contents
described it as almost an ultimatum.
A Rome dispatch to the United Press
yesterday carried the first intination
that Holland had been putting out peace
feelers This dispatch stated. that the
allies had informed Holland that peace
overtures at this time would be con
strued as a pro-German move.)
Dutch officials have not only resumed
their attempt at peace negotiations, but
they are now convinced that the end OF
the war is a long way off.
The one positive indication that peace
is impossible at present is the wide diff
ference of opinion between each of the
opposing sides regarding the situation
in the ranks of the other. During the
past few days / have been in Copenhag-
en-, Berlin, The Hague and Rotterdam.
The first impression obtained by trav-
eler is the wide chasm between the con
tending parties.
Germany Confident.
Copenhagen, which Is tremendously
anti-German, believes that Germany is
about to fall to pieces. There are re-
ports of unrest, starvation, depression
and lack of soldiers in Germany. The
people of Copenhagen and also residents
of The Hague believe the allied often
sive on the Somme, in Russia and Ga
licia and Hungary is having great sue
cess. They can't understand why the
much talked of "revolution" in Ger
many doesn't begin. No one pays any
attention to the German victories in Ru
mania.
In Berlin there is some depression
some pessimism. but the faith in the
ability Of the army to hold out is not
being shaken. Everyone in Germany
keeps maps of the battle fronts and
watches the progress of the fighting
closely. The people have amazing faith
in Won Hindenburg. Interest centers in
Mackensen s offensive in Rumania.
The Berlin newspapers emphasize the
shortage of British tonnage. They de-
clare food prices have advanced as
much in England as in Berlin. France
Berliners believe. has exhausted her re-
serves and her army is weakening daily
more than any other army.
The streets of Berlin, Frankfort, Bre-
men and all large German cities are full
of soldiers all the time. refuting the oft
repeated statement that Germany has
exhausted her reserves.
"The allies are losing 5000 men a
day on the western front. " was the way
one German put it. 81 suppose our los
ses are great, too, but we can keep it
up as long as they can. We will hold
out until the allies get enough of it."
