Springfield, H., March 2i.-Adjt.
General Dickson late yesterday can
celed furloughs for fourteen Illinois
national guard officers detailed to the
annual convention OF the National
Guard association March p, IS and 20
in New York.
Gen. Dickson talked over the long
distance telephone this afternoon with
Adjt. Gen Thomas j. Stewart, of
Pennsylvania, president OF the asso-
citation, and while he did not suggest
the postponement of the convention
he did say subjects Of Importance
should not be considered without the
representation OF this state.
The situation is simply this" Adjt.
Gen. Dickson said 1t is general
knowledge that call for troops may
come at ANY moment Gen. Barry,
commanding the central department,
has directed that steps he taken to
make all preparations with respect to
mobilization camps. The war depart
ment has demanded that immediate
rcquisition be made for supplies 10
equip the Illinois regiments on war
footing. Congress meets April 2.
Under such circumstances it is
deemed highly inadvisable for officers
Of the Illinois national guard to be
absent from the state during the per
i0d OF the national convention
Should mobilization be necessary, the
best place for national guard officers
TO be Of service TO their commands Is
Id Illinois,
Gen. Dickson wished to lay special
emphasis on the point that the tore
going situation is precautionary rath-
er than otherwise.
Representatives OF the adjutant gen.
eral today, in conformity with the or
ders from Gen. Barry, went over the
state fair grounds and Camp Lincoln,
checking up on actual conditions as
preliminary to demonstrating the mo-
biliZation camps Of last summer.
1t Is understood the decision as to
the location of the mobilization camps
rests with Gen Barry and that he may
designate some other place than
Springfield 1t is evident, however,
that Springfield will be the destination
OF the troops, in the event they are

troops apparently has not been eradi-
Gated. although a stiffening in the
Russian. defense in Galicia, Bukowina
and Rumania recently had indicated
that the Russians were to make no
more voluntary retrograde move
ments.
Following Tuesdays reports of the
falling back by the Russians in east
ern Bukowina toward the Besserabia
frontier comes the news that, disloyal
to their colore, the Russians in south
ern Moldavia, from Fokshani north
ward, have quit their trenches and
fed in disorder. The enemy by rea-
son Of this detection has materially
bettered his positions for an advance
eastward. and at last accounts was
continuing to, develop his success.
The Berlin war office says the Rus
slams have suffered heavily in men
killed or wounded and have lost more
than 1000 men made prisoners and

Meanwhile NJ. Kerensky. the
Russian premier, has reiterated to

the results achieved by the revolution
and declared that no counter revolu-

A continuation of the stormy
weather is still holding up major OPP

though the British here and there
still are engaged in minor trench
raiding activities. in which small po-
sitions have been captured and addi-
tfonal prisoners taken.
The fighting on the Verdun front
for the moment also has reached a
pause. only the big guns being active.
There have been artillery duels along
the Aisne front. ~
Hard fighting is in progress between
the Italians and Austrians on the
Bainsizza plateu and on the heights
around Gorilla. In the former sector
the Austrians are defending tena-
ciously a powerfully fortified line to
which the Italians have come within
striking distance. In the fighting the
Italians are still using large numbers
of airplanes, which are effectively
bombarding enemy positions. More
than 1000 additional prisoners and

taken by the Italians.
