Republican A. p. Leased wire1

NEW YORK. May 10-New Works historic city hall. built more than 100 years ago. and considered architectur- ally one of the most beautiful buildings Tn the country. was threatened with destruction today when fire broke out Tn its wooden clock tower. After an hours work by firemen, however, the flames were under control
 The city hall was the scene yester- day of the reception to the French commission. Only a shell of the tower remains, the clock being destroyed but the statue of Justice which surmounted the tower still stands.
 Many priceless relics were saved, al though some damage was done to the interior of the building by water
 The whole building. had been wired for electric lights. for the illumination in connection with the reception to the French commission. It was thought possible the blaze was caused by de fective insulation.

The architect was John McComb. Con- struction began in 1903 and if was completed in 1912.

Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

NEW YORK, May 10.-With wit nesses called in behalf of David Lamar, the defense opened today the trial here of Captain Franz Rintelen, of the Ger man navy. and five others charged with conspiring to disrupt the muni- ton trade of the entente allies in this -eountry in 1915 by fomenting strikes. The number of defendants was re- duced from eight to seven through dis missal by the court of the indictment against Frank <. Monett, former at torney general of ohio.
 It was expected Rintelen would be the first to offer his defense, but his counsel announced that he could not "contrOVert the governments case fur ther than he has in cross examination or expects to do in summing up"
 Lamars attorney opened with a statement of what he proposed to prove asserting he would show that his clients prosecution was the result of q conspiracy by great financial interests on account of Lamar's antitrust ac- tivities.

BRITISH FLEET
 BETTER AFTER MAR
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

LONDON, May 10.-In the house of lords today, Lord Curzon announced that the program of the minister of shipping provided for the creation each year of mercantile shipping aggregat- ing 3,000,000 tons gross. The govern ment. said Lord Curzon, was taking the most drastic steps in it's power to ac- Guire merchant ships. After the war. he predicted. the British mercantile fleet would be equal or better than be- fore the struggle.
 Lord Curzon gave figures showing that before the war the United Kingdom had 45.3 per cent of the mercantile ships under 1900 tons each and 45.2 per cent in December 1916.
 In ships exceeding 500 tons each. he said. the Linked Kingdom had in June 1914 3,9O0 vessels of gross tonnage totaling 16.900,000 tons. The core spending figures in March 1917. he said, were $500 ships aggregating nearly 16,000,000 tons.

Washington, Feb. 18.-The Greek Le-

blockade of the coast of Greece. and
the poor classes are living on herbs and
grass. The statement follows;
"Ten deaths from starvation have
been reported from the province OF

mania, two in the province Of Preceza'
one in Eubia and one in Messina. The
poor classes have begun to live on
herbs and grass. .e epidenics of
enteritis and dysentery are rapidly
spreading in the country.
Notwithstanding the complete exc
cution of the Allies ultimatum, no re-
taxation of the blockade has been
brought about. Numbers of fishing
boats constantly are sunk or seques-
tered by the ships enforcing the block.

Germany Already
Replacing Ruined
Parts of Vessels
Order for Parts Given Simulta=
neOusly with Wrecking COM
mand, Says Teuton Captain

Philadelphia, Feb. 1S.-"The Pub
lie Ledger" prints the toIlotoing by
Lincoln CoLcord, from Ne1C York:
Not only the Kronprinzessin Cecilie,
but every German steamship intened
H. American waters, was similarly dis
abled at about the same time, and the
order Of the imperial government to
which Captain Poiack testified IN MS
particular case was general order
sent out by the German Embassy to
the captains OF all interned German
ships. from New York and Boston to
Honolulu and Manila. My informant,
Captain Won y, is man prominent
in German-American shipping circles.
He told me all this quite frankly, as
between sailors, but placed me under
obligations not to reveal has identity.
The order Of the imperial govern
ment in this matter was fully expected
whenever the situation seemed TO war
rant it, and all preparations had been
made for quickly and thoroughly car
Tying 10 out.
The engine room was selected az TIE
field Of these operations, for va
riety Of excellent reasons. In the first
place. IL had been determined not 10
destroy the ships or permanently In
jure their huils. For the immediate
Issue, all Germany had in mind was 70
keep them OUT Of the hands OF & pos
sibie bel!igerent for a period covering
the next year. So, IN case the ships
were taken over by the United States IL
would be extremely difficult TO dupli-
cate the destroyed parts OF the Ger
man machinery on this side of the
water. Patterns Of the missing or dam
aged parts would have 10 be made. IL
might be necessary 10 turn out special
mach merry for the work. On the other
land, the patterns and requisite ma
cEinery were already in existence In
Germany.
This is the interesting point Of the
whole matter. As soon as the order
went forth 10 destroy the engines OF
interned German ships in American
waters there is every reason 10 believe
that companion order was given in
Germany to start the work OF duplicat-
ing those specific parts injured or de-
stroyed.

GERMANS TN RUSH
FOR CIVIL POSTS
Schoolboys and Men Ex-
empt from War Respond
to Service Law

Berne. Feb. 18.--It is possible. VI not
probable, that a continuance Of the
war will mean specialization OF busi-
ness in Germany, the closing OF all
Int the most necessary businesses and
the mobilization of all efforts IN a
determination to ward off what Ter
many believes to be efforts to dismem-
Der that country and its allies.
All indications are that Germany
eventually will adjust herself to the
conditions brought about by the civil
service law passed last fall. The Ger
man War Bureau, which is putting into
effect the provisions OF the law, re-
ports that it has had unexpected sue
cess. and points to the huge NUMBER
of applications for employment re-
ceived from all classes Of the popula-
ton, which seemingly are anxious to
serve the Fatherland in civil capsc-
ity. ,..
The plan, however. constitutes a
problem not to be ignored in the tut
ure. On the basis of returns up to the
present, the number Of youths who
have applied for work of any kind mas
keen so large that the authorities have
not been able to avoid the conclusion
that schoolboys deliberately are at
tempting to evsde their studies by OF
fering their services to the govern
ment.
The boys know that they are not yet
liable to be called into military service.
Failure to make public the pay to which
they would be entitled as civil workers
for the government has, II Is believed,
in many cases led them to hope tor
high wages; or a spirit of adventure
has inspired many of them TO seek
work for the Fatherlsnd.'
Many who have applied for employ
ment, it is believed, have done so IN
the hope that they may evade military
duty. These generally are men who
have been found unfit for service at
the front, but who hope TO avoid as
signment TO uncongenial tasks in garrl-
son work and expect to be able to stay
outside the army by showing that they
are serving their country In an impor-
tant way in some civil capacity.
The large number OF women april
cants for civil duty has not been an
unmixed benefit, since women employees
in regular male occupations have not
proved able to do mems work satisfac-
torily and despite their best efortc
are much inferior to the former male
helm
