WOOD HAS EYE ON
OFFICERS RESERVE
Would Call Them Out at Once for

Washington, April 14.-Major Gen.
Leonard Wood. commanding the East
srn department Of the army, has rec
commended to Secretary Of War Baker
that there be called into the federal
service for period OF intensive train
ing all the officers Of the reserve corps
who live in the states included in the
present territory Of the department.
There are between 500 and 900 reserve
officers in the department, majority
Of whom live in New York, Pennsyl-
vania and the New England states.
General Woods suggestion is for two
camps, one in the north, probably in
New York state, and the other in one
Of tho southern states.
New officers of the reserve corps are
being commissioned every day, and as

HAIL GRANDMOTHER
OF THE REVOLUTION
Royal Reception Ends Forty-Four
Years in Exile

Petrograd, April 1.-THE arrival
Of Nine. Catherine Breshkovskaya
was the occasion of dramatic gath
lutionary and terrorists times to give
her an enthusiastic and emotional
welcome.
All Petrograd. in fact. turned out
to acclaim the "Grandmother Of the
Revolution on her Homecoming from
Siberia, where she had spent forty
four of her seventy-three years in ex-
lie. A vast crowd, waving red flags
and singing the "Marseillaise," ex-
tended down the west end of the
Nevsky Prospect as far as the Mix
oelaievsk.
When the Associated Press corre-
spondent arrived he found the crowd
trying to storm the station. to which
were admitted only veteran Nihilists
and deputation from the ministry
OF justice, headed by Minister Of Jus
tice Kerenski, together with delega-
tons of welcome from Petrograd,
Moscow and Dorpat universities and
High schools.
At the suggestion of M. Kerenski,
the reception committee adopted a.
plan unique in Russian history for
the welcoming Of Nine Breshkovsk-
aya-a plan symbolizing Russia's
transition from autocracy to democ-
racy. The welcome took place in
the gorgeous suite in the railway sta
ton called the Imperial reception
rooms, which under the old regime
were used only for the reception of
royal personages. The large drawing
room In this suite, which had been
the scene of meetings of the worlds
most powerful monarchy, was now
the gathering place of the worlds
most extreme democrats, republicans
and socialists. Around the room
were scores of baskets and wreaths
of flowers, the scarlet tulip predom-
inating-a flower which bids fair to
become the floral emblem of the New
Russia The flowers bore various in
scriptions, such as ITO Our Dear
Grandmother" ITO Russia's Martyr
Heroine
Revolutionary Veterans There.
Among the revolutionary veterans
the correspondent found Nine. Vera
Figner, Mile. Vera Zassulich, the
former Duma member Pianuich and
Professor Nicholas Morosoff. Mime.
Figner spent twenty years in Jail. but
was released some years ago through
a whim Of Nicholas II. after he had
been pleased with the singing Of her
brother at concert Under her heavy
fur cap she looked like the typical
heroine Of a Nihilist romance. Be-

mated that Fort Munroe, Va, alone,

ilton could care for another 200, Fort
Totten the same number, and the 9TH

The general would give to those who
attend these fort training camps the

How about uniforms for these

man can be taught to handle a gun
properly we need have little worry
about how he will wear his uniform

train our men in civilian clothing.

FURTHER PROOF OF
LOSS OF BREMEN
Owners Of Bond Coupons Aboard
Ask for Reissue

New York, April 14.-Further proof
that the German submarine Bremen
was destroyed or lost at sea was re-
vealed in the financial district yester-
day, when 1t was learned from trust
company that large batch of cou-
which were on board had never
reached the consignees. The affidavit
in the possession of this institution,
showed that the giant undersea boat
had cleared the port of Hamburg with
a cargo in which were the coupons.
Further than this no other informa-
ton was given.
In the belief that there is no chance
Of the Bremen reaching America,
those to whom the bond coupons were
shipped recently made application to
the issuing companies that new cou-
pons be issued.
The ingenuity of the Germans in
shipping securities to this country was
disclosed by the statement that the
bonds, from which the coupons had
been detached, had arrived safely,
presumably on the Deutschland. The
face amount of the bonds was said to
have been less than 100000.
Left in August, 1915.
A Copenhagen dispatch received
in this city by way Of London on Au-
gust "a, 1916, indicated that the
Bremen had left Hamburg and was
we'll upon her way to New London, her
port of destination. It has been be-
lieved that the British admiralty was
in possession of the real facts con-
corning the boats fate, Sbut no state
ment was ever issued to clear up the
mystery.
February Fl dispatch from Stock
holm said that the Bremen had not
been lost, but that her failure to ar
rive at New London was deliberately
planned. This was denied later in an
other dispatch, which said that infor-
nation obtained by the Associated
Press indicated that the boat had
been lost in q storm. . ...[
The request by the governing COM
mittee of the stock exchange that the
members compile for the federal au-
thorities all information in their pos
session showing the amount of cash
and securities held in this country
either by or for the account Of alien
enemies brought forth new estimates
as to the amount of American secur-
tiles held by Germans. Bankers who
received consignments of stocks and
that the am&unt now on deposit here
was between $25, 900, 600 and $50, 000.-
