REFERRED TO POLICE.
Circular Which Protests Against War
It Came From Chicago.

A strongly worded proclamation
against war, the distribution OF which
apparently was timed in anticipation of
the registration tomorrow, circulated in
Barre to-day. The leahet was printed in
Chicago and is described as one of a Sc
ries put out by the national Socialist
party, which has lately lost most of its
eminent leaders in the United States be-
cause of alleged unpatriotic measures
submitted to referendum among Social
lists throughout the country. The leaAet
treats of war as a capitalist institution,
but wisely omits reference to registra-
tion. A copy is in the hands of the po-
lice, who are not wholly ignorant of the
identity of persons circulating the leahet

KRONSTADT SAILORS
SEEK REPRESENTA-
TION IN NEW COUNCIL
They Also Ask That Former Emperor
Nicholas Be Handed Over
to Them.

Petrograd, via London, June 4.--Sail-
ors from the Kronstadt garrison, which
recently declared its independence of the
central government, arrived in Petro-
grad early to-day with the announce
ment that more sailors would come from
the ships at kronstadt to make common
cause against those now in authority
Later reports said that sailors had land
ed on an island north of Petrograd and
begun an attack, A visit to the fortress
showed that the story of the landing
and the attack was untrue.
The visit, however, was sufficiently
alarming to provoke intense excitement
and TO cause the Abandonment of mil
itary fort. The troops of sailors who
came to Petrograd said that the demon
stration could be stopped through cleo
tion to the council of worl<ingmen. The
sailors also demanded that former En-
peror Nicholas be handed over 20 them.

DRAFT REGISTRATION
TOMORROW IN SIX
2 BARRE WARDS
All Men Between Ages of al and 80, In
elusive, Are Required to Present Them
selves for the Purpose, Begin
ming at 2 in the Morning.

All is in readiness for registration day
in Barre tomorrow. The machinery nee
essary to receive the registrations of
young men of the 2l 81 ages has been so
arranged as to accommodate the eligible
ones in every ward. Registrars have re-
ceived their final instructions, and at 7
o'clock tomorrow morning they will be
found at the following posts;
Ward l, Church street school; ward 2,
Spaulding school; ward 3, Summer street
school; ward A, Brook street school ;
ward 5, Woodchuck knoll SCHOOL, ward 8,
the court room at city hall. Registrars
will be present at all hours during the
day, from a. m. until 8 p. m. Mayor
Glysson is the moderator, City Clerk
James Mackay the chief registrar, and
Health Officer Dr. j. w. Stewart the sur
geon. Register early is the final word
from the officials.
All men between 81 and 81 are asked
to familiarize themselves with the mum
Der of the ward in which they live, in
order that they may present themselves
at the proper registering station. For
the reason that large number of the
men who are going to register are not
thoroughly conversant with the English
language, and, therefore, in some in
stances, do not know the names of their
employers, the latter are asked to see to
it that all men subject to registration
are advised as to the proper names of
the men employing them. In this con-
nection, the registrars urge all employ
Frs to ascertain at noon whether all of
the eligible men in their employ have
registered, and if there be any who have
not registered to urge upon them the
need of doing so at once.

SUGGESTS SEPARATE PEACE.
Baron Rosen Wants It to Keep Russia
from Complete Dissolution.

Petrograd, via London, June Ain a
long declaration published in yester'
days Dyen, Baron Rosen, former Rus
sian ambassador to the United States
and former member of the council OF
the empire. suggests as a means OF
exit for Russia from her present chaotic
condition diplomatic conference with
the entente allies to determine possi-
BILE basis for peace with the central
powers. The original aims of the war
the complete ruin of the enemy-have
become hopeless, he declares, and the war
promises to develop into slow process
of more or less general exhaustion of
both sides.
Russia is on the edge of a preci-
pice," says Baron Rosen in his declara-
tion. Safety demands that she find
an exit before the growing anarchy
wrecks the country. She must say good
bye to illusions and look the truth in
the eye. The watchword of war to the
end must be considered in the light of
conditions.
These conditions are becoming worse
with increasing disorganization. The en-.
emy as well as the allies are informed
of that fact. We are running the risk
of being abandoned by the allies or left
to the necessity of making a shameful
peace If we defer following the only
course conformable with dignity and
honor. We must abandon the use of
words which mean nothing clear and
definite and begin a diplomatic confer
ence with the allies and the United
States, which has joined the coalition,
and find out what conditions of peace
will satisfy them and at the same time be
in accordance with the spirit of the
declaration of the temporary govern
ment and the principles proclaimed by
President Wilson"
Baron Rosen acknowledges that Rus
sia is late with such diplomatic sug-
gestion which, in his opinion, should
have followed President Wilson's appeal
to the belligerent countries. AT that
time, however, the governing classes of
all the countries were so intent upon the
dea of the complete ruin of the enemy,
ne comments, that no one government
could assert its readiness to solve the
problems of the war by conferences.
