GERMANY NEEDS
MORE SOLDIERS
Kaiser Begins to Feel Lack Of
Fighting Men for His
Armies.
OVER MILLION MEN DEAD

Paris. Feb. l5.-Americans arriving
in the French capital today from Ber-
lin, who were in position to see
what was taking place behind the
screen. regard General Won Ludden-.
dorff, the first quartermaster general
OF the German imperial army, as the
most vital person in the small group
surrounding Emperor William re-
sponsible for the German policy.
The military situation in Germany,
according to the same source OF IN
formation, is regarded as beginning
to be affected by the exhaustion of
man power. Nearly every man in the
country between the proper ages has
been replaced by men physically I'M
fit for active service or below or be-
yond the age limits.
The German losses in dead, off
cially placed by the last public an
nouncements as having reached
slightly beyond 100000 officers and
men. is, according to cautious esti-
mates, 100000 or 100000 beyond that
figure. The sanitary service OF the
German army has been very good and
because of this high percentage OF
wounded soldiers has been able to
return to the active army. Yet the
number of permanently disabled
among the wounded probably will
bring their irreplaceable losses con-
siderably beyond the 100000 mark.
General Won Luddendorff, the Amer
leans say, appears to be the brain
that conceives the military plans,
while Field Marshal Won Hindenburg,
chief of the general staff, is the hand
that executes them. General Won
Luddendorff is described as being
of a military mind rather than of a
political one Yet his immense in
huence in the encourage OF the Ger
man emperor gives him voice in
purely political and foreign policies.
Americans whose business in Ber-
lin was to study the springs OF action
of the German government, say they
know that General Won Luddendorff
dislikes Americans and has contempt
for their military strength; that is,
while aware OF their potentialities,
yet so far as any organization and ap-
plication of them is possible, they
could not, in the opinion of the Ger
man quartermaster general, be
brought to bear upon the present war.
which, in his belief, will be finished
before the United States could get
into action.
The conviction in the small group
responsible for the acts of the Ger
man government appears to be that
the submarine war can be successful
against England within three months;
that in any event it is powerful arm
for immediate and continual use until
the war is ended Consequently it
will be used for all it is worth.

Naval Officer Is
Arrested Often
Across Germany

Copenhagen, Feb. l5.--(Via Lon
don. )-Warran Officer Hardy OF the
American gunboat Scorpion, station
ship at C0nstantinople, arrived here
last night from Constantinople after
an experience of arrests, detentions
and trials covering the period since
the announcement of unrestricted
warfare. Hardy left Constantinople
January 80, and as he was wearing a
uniform, was the object Of suspicion
from the outset, .-
He was taken from the train at
Sofia, Budapest and Vienna, but in
each instance was permitted to pro
coed. When he fell into the hands of
the German authorities at Dresden,
however, he was detained in mill
tary prison for three days. Thence
he was forwarded to secret service
headquarters at Berlin.
After an investigation he was per-
mitted to proceed to Warnemunde,
where he was again detained before
being put on board the ferry for Den
mark. The Germans apparently
feared he might be carrying informa-
ton, for he was subjected to the full
course of acid washings and other
scientific methods Of detecting COM
munications written in sympathetic
ink. His uniform and effects were
searched in the most thorough man
ner. Hardy is the only exception SO

Spring came to New York at 1880
last night, so the makers Of almanaes
say.
There was q menthol tablet in her
mouth, her diaphanous garments were
heavy and chill with fog as. according
20 the ancient formula Of city poets
she ran with light feet along the ave-
nues." and her toes were cold.
No one saw the CLEAN OF datodlis m
her hair, nor caught the ripple Of her
laughter in Park Row thirty minutes
before midnight yesterday. Not even
a book beer sign welcomed her.
Mist drove in from the sea before
her and dmmed the outlines OF the
skyscrapers In the park dirty ridges
of snow still glimmered- bleaching
bones Of winter. The squat fountain
in the middle Of the square did not
leap into life at her touch. II re-
NAMED mute and dry. Spring has little
influence in New York.
Above a few stars glimmered Ike
pale anemones IN the cloudy sky. II
may be that beyond where the river
craft were believing in the mist spring
found their earthly counterparts IN
some leafess woodland that thrilled at
her coming and laughed. But New York
did not hear her laughter. II heard
her sneeZe.
