WAITING REPORTS
 0N SELECTIONS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, July 26.-Reports of the first selection boards to fill their quotas for the selective draft army are eagerly awaited by Washington off cers because they will give the first definite information as to the probable percentage of rejections to be expected among the ten million registrants for physical reasons or for dependents.
 All available statistics indicate probable rejection of one in every four for physical disability. In localities this will vary greatly. There is no available data as to dependents, how ever, as to how many must be excused under industrial exemptions.
 It appears probable that peculiar re- suits will be brought out in some dis tricts. If the reasoning of some off cials is correct, the lowest rejection and exemption rates will be disclosed in well-tod communities, such as the suburbs of large cities, where men of comfortable incomes make their homes. Sons of such men, it is suggested, have had better food, better care and better surroundings than the factory hands of nearby towns and they should be in better physical condition.
 In factory towns, on lhe other hand the rejection rate for physical disabil- ity probably will be high. Virtually every married man of those registered in these places is the sole support of his wife and children and such men cannot be taken.

BE EXEMPT F
 BRIDES DEPENDENT
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

TRENTON, N. J., July 26.-Accord- ing to the interpretation placed by the military authorities on a letter just re- ceived from Provost Marshal General CroWder in reply to inquiries, drafted men who have married or who shall marry before they are called for eX- animation will not have to serve in the conscript army if their brides are de- pendent upon them.
 The impression has prevailed that registered men who married after June did so only to be ina position to claim exemption and that their mar riage would be regarded as an attempt to evade the draft, but would not be recognized as a bona fide claim. The following paragraph of the provost marshaPs letter, military authorities say, seems to upset this impressions:
 In reference to marriage after June ,, 1917, it would seem in like manner that the claim to discharge because of dependency should be determined at the date of calling. If the person called Is then a married man and has a wife at that time depending upon his labor in the sense in which that term is used in the rules and regulations it would seem that he could be discharged from the service if, in the opinion of the board, the claim is substantiated"

PAMPHLETS TELL
 0F MANY STRIKES
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire]

IRONWOOD Mich, July 26.-Mine owners on the Gogebic range and in the copper country east of here are waiting the action of a committee of mine workers appointed at a secret meeting held here last night by leaders of the |. w. w. which will confer with representatives of the mine owners to- morrow regarding demands which some of the workers say they feel should be granted.
 Early this week pamphlets were dis tributed in this neighborhood and in the copper mining district calling at tention to the fact that the miners Of Montana, Utah and Arizona are out on a strike and in which is set forth the demands that the men will make here. Refusal of these demands, the pam phlet says will result in a general strike of miners being called.
 The pamphlet demands that S6 a day be paid for six hours work; the abolition of the contract system; two men to each machine for underground drilling; abolition of the blacklist and the right to organize labor unions.
 Miners who have arrived here from Risbee and Globe, Arizona, say the pamphlets distributed are identical with those distributed in Arizona be- fore the trouble started there.
 William Kellett sheriff of Gogebic county has been given authority to swear in as many deputies as he may think necessary in event of trouble.

 It was before the divorce suit was filed, Walker asserted that a proposal was made to do away with Ender. He said Mrs. Finder told the police after her arrest that all this was the TO- mantle rawlings of youth who had evil dently conceived the idea that she would receive large amount of money after the death of her husband
 According to Walkers story. he asked a barkeeper where he could get a man to commit a murder, and a city detective was called in, disguised to look like a desperate man. Shortly after the supposed murderer had re- ceived his first payment Walker was arrested.
 Walker said he was born in Big Springs, Texas. and had his schooling at Los Angeles. He said he had lived also in Louisville.

AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN FRANCE, July 26.-(By the Associated Press. 1.-The French government has extended to the Americans free use of the French mails, so, if similar ar engagements are made in America, the members of the United States expedi- tionary force can send letters or post cards home without any charge what ever. If it is desired there is no doubt that similar postal arrangements can be made with Great Britain for such reciprocal action already exists between Great Britain and France
 The soldiers rejoiced today over the arrival of a large consignment of to- bacco from America. French cigar cites, cigars and smoking tobacco have not appealed strongly to the American soldiers and there was a temporary shortage of the familiar brands from home.
 Y. M. C. A. headquarters have been established near the base and it is ex- pected that the work of this organiza- ton will be handled rapidly, the need of amusement for the men being already marked. The Red Cross has sent over large quantities of baseball supplies and is also making provision to furnish the men with moving picture machines and films.

GRAND HEADQUARTERS OF THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE, Iuly 26. (By the A. P)-The Germans in a persistent effort to recapture at least some part of the Chemin Dcs Danes transferred their attention to- day to the region of HTurtesbise, on which they launched a strong attack, supported by heavy artillery concen- tration. The infantry assaulted again and again, but notwithstanding the heavy masses thrown into the action, they were unable to secure any ad- vantage other than entrance into a small section of advanced French trenches to the south of Allies.
 The German storming battalions were caught by an intense barrage fire as they left their trenches, and their ranks were rapidly depleted. De tails of the attack on the California and Classmates plateau, in which the Germans suffered the most complete defeat in the first half of the week, show that some of the Prussian rcgi- mcnts lost fifty per cent of their eff fectives. They employed more than 100 batteries during the bombardment,
