Ell PESIMISMO DE LOS RUSOS

SELECTION OF FIRST DRAFTED
ARMY SOON WILL BE
UNDER WAY

Washington, June 6-The mighty
roll Of honor of American manhood
had begun to reach Washington to-
night from states that had completed
their count of the men OF military age
registered yesterday. At late hour
only a few complete reports had been
received, but preliminary unofficial re-
turns were sufficient to show that mil
lions of men awaited the call to
arms.
Two states, Delaware and YER
mont, and the District of Columbia,
had reported complete returns when
the Provost Marshal Generals Office
closed tonight at II o'clock. Tab
ulations will be resumed tomorrow
morning.
The official figures were too scant
for an accurate estimate Of the total
of the men who have registered. The
first reports show that the census bu-
reau's estimates of eliglbles had been
equalled but officials pointed out that
the number by which one or two cit
les alone had exceeded the estimate
would wipe out the deficiencies of the
several smaller states sending In the
first official returns.
Registration Goes On
In some Of these cities registration
was still in progress today, the at
torney general having approved the

SHORTAGE OF FREIGHT CARS

The shippers of Maysville have been
appealed to by the Department of
Commerce at Washington through the
Maysville Chamber of Commerce for
the highest possible efficiency in the
loading and unloading of freight.
"The demand for freight cars at the
present time" writes Mr.. e. f. Pratt,
Chief of Bureau, "is far beyond that
of any previous period in our history.
When our troops are actually in the
field this demand will be greatly in
creased.

American Railway Association is CO.
ordinating the freight traffic resour-
ces of the country in an effort to meet
this demand but 1t will be unable to do
so without the help of all those in
terested.
at appears that very large per-
centage Of freight cars are sent out
loaded only to the minimum safe ca
pacity fixed by the tariffs Of the car
riers, although the maximum safe ca
pacity of the car is in some cases
twice this minimum. The Bureau be-
lieves that great improvement will
follow If this situation is brought to
the attention Of shippers and others
concerned, and it is pointed out to
them that unless cars are loaded to
the maximum and delays obviated
there will not be cars enough to 60
around, with resulting hardships to
everyone.

accounting. But It Is upon the in
dignation Of men and women whose
sons or other kin have met the issue
with courage and cheerfully record
ed their names, that the government
chiefly depends to bring slackers in
to the open.
AS the registration figures came in
tonight, the work Of preparing for
the next great step proceeded with
out interruption. Already the ma
chinery which will govern exemption
is virtually complete. 1t is probable
that a few days will see 1t duly pro-
mulgated by President Wilson and the
work of assembling the boards in
each community under way.

A WORD WITH WOMEN
Valuable Advice for Maysville Readers.

Many woman endures with noble
patience the daily misery Of backache,
pains about the hips, blue, nervous
spells, dizziness and kidney disorders,
HOPELESS of relief because she doesn't
know what Is the matter.
1t is not true that every pain In the
back or hips Is trouble peculiar to
the SEX" Otter when the kidneys get
congested and infamed, such aches
and pains follow.
Then help the weakened kidneys.
Don't expect them to get well alone.
Doan's Kidney Pills have won the
praise Of thousands Of women. They
are endorsed-Read this Maysville wo-
mans convicing statement:
Miss Dora Edgington, Wood st..
Maysvilles, says: II have used Doan's
Kidney Pills and from the results re-
ceived, | have every reason to recon-
mend them. At times, my kidneys have
become weak and have been irregular
in action. My back has ached, too and
has been very weak and lame across
my kidneys. When ever have used
Doan's Kidney Pills for this trouble
they have never failed to relieve the
complaint in short time. gladly ad-

READY TO COPE WITH
RUSS COLLAPSE

Washington, June 8-The Japanese
embassy today denied knowledge Of
reported representations by Japan to
the Russian government that Japan
and Great Britain would be obliged
to consider what measures to take in
case Russia withdraws from the war.
The State Department also professed
ignorance of such action on the part
of the japanese government and in
pro-Russian quarters 1t was declared
that any such communication would
surely be deeply resented by the Pc
trograd government and 60 far to-
ward precipitating the, break the AL
lies have tried above all things to
avert.
There was a disposition In the same
quarter to ascrlbe reports to Japanese
activity to German influences seeking
to create distrust between the Allies.
1t is known, however. that condi-
tons in Russia are such as to have
inspired some Of the allied powers to
place themselves In position to deal
with developments adverse to their in
terests, This has been done without
ill-feeling toward Russia, but out of
prudential regard for the maintenance
OF what the Entente powers believe Is
their present military superiority,
Recent public utterance of proml-
nent Japanese have indicated that the
explanation Of Japans failure to dis
patch troops to Europe might be
found on this basis. as Japans splen-
dldly organized military force might
be used In case OF need TO repair any
OBJECTIONS In the lighting lines caused
by an unexpected collapse Of Russian
