MAR|ON,S SECOND
QUOTA may BE 3S7
This With 10000 In Second
Draft---Has Now Credit
of Thirty

The regulations and rulings of the
war department regarding the first
and second draft are changing so often
that to the average reader, there is but
little certainty as to anything.
However, this much is true: On the
first draft, the gross quota for Marion
county was 354. As 428 men had en-
listed from the county, there was an
excess of IA men and consequently,
when the call of the first draft came,
no men were required from this coun-
ty.
No provision is made by law for cred
iting a county the excess quota, which
instead, is distributed in the state in
accordance with the rules as prescrib-
ed by the president. Hence, when the
second draft is made, Marion county
will get no credit for that excess Of
IA men.
Again, the federal authorities have
given the assurance that all men enlist
ing after June 30, will be credited to
the county on the second draft. As to
how many men Marion county will be
called on to furnish on the second
draft, all depends on the number re-
quired of the state. t
The first draft was for $4,000 men
when Marion county's quota was 354
men, According to the best information
to be obtained, the second draft will
be for 100000 men, and if this is cor
rect, the quota of Marion county will
be 387.
If the present regulations are not
changed, all men who have volunteer
ed for the army since June 80 in Ma
rion county, will be credited on the
second draft. The records of the local
recruiting office show that since June
80, only "a men have enlisted. Hence,
there is only credit of 81 men to
date that may be credited against the
call of the second draft of 3S7.
There will be this credit of 81 men
and all others who enlist after june 30
up to the time men are called up for
the physical examination. The general
impression now is that while the call
for the second draft may come within
a few weeks, those accepted will not
be called into active service until af-
ter the first of the year.

WILL BE IN TRENCHES
IN VERY SHORT TIME
French General Makes Thi.
Prediction to United Press
Correspondent
BY J. w. Pegler,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent)
American Headquarters in France,
Aug. 15.-American soldiers will be in
the trenches of France, facing the Ger
mans, in a very short time.
This was the forecast made to the
United Press today by the French
general commanding the poilus giving
the Sammies their lessons in trench
fighting.
''The first American contingent will
be ready to begin actual fighting very
soon," unless difficulties new unex-
pected interrupt their training,'' said
the general through an interpreter. He
was sitting in his office with General
Sibert.
"The Americans have made surpris-
ingly rapid progress with the French
fighting practice" he said ''They
have made their training work of
pleasure by regarding bayonet, gren-
ade and rifle drills as sport. They
didn't like trench digging, but it is
just as much matter of life and death
as bombing and shooting the Ger
mans.'
The greatest affection exists between
the American and French soldiers. The
Americans have so effectually grasped
the methods of fighting that rivalry
has sprung up between the Sammies
and the French chasseurs.
"Give my greetings to their fellow
soldiers, who are aiming at the same
noble object. bid them hearty well
come to France and hope they may
soon be able to share the glory of those
men already here.

Expect Long Strike.

San Francisco, Aug. 15.--While most
of the San Francisco street car lines
were either badly crippled or practically
tied up the United Railroads today com
menced preparations for long strike.
Supplies in large quantities were TAX
en- to the car barnes at Oath and Utah
streets for The strikebreakers. Cot for
$50 men were installed and more strike
breakers were imported. A trainload of
men arrived from the south, according
to a report at the labor temple.
B. F. Bowbeer, leader of the strike,
this afternoon declared he had received
an anonymous letter informing him that
q sfvigilance committee was being or
ganized to drive him from the city. An
attempt is being made to learn the
source of the message.
Bowbeer, and J. j. O'Connor, secre
tary of the labor council, this after
room asked Acting Chief of Police
O,Brien to enforce the city ordinance
forcing platform men to have seven
days of experience before being allowed
to operate car. They charged that alb
solutely "raw'' men are operating cars.
Strikers asserted over 1900 men are
now out.
The United Railroads today made
every effort to restore normal condi
tions, but with little result.
1t is estimated by strikers that 80 per
cent of the city lines are tied up.
At the ear barns it was stated that
sixty strikers have asked for their jobs
back.

Miss. Rankin admitted today that she

since her condemnation of them in the

MORE WOMEN PICKETS
ARE LODGED IN CELLS
Treated as equals" by Police Who
Turn Deaf Ear to Appeals for
Proper Night Apparel.
Es7uu.s 5weHso1 Chairman

Washington, July 5.-Lack of prop.
er night apparel is the latest plea
of militant suflraglsts against being
thrown into cells for creating distur-
Dances in front of the White House.
Thirteen women, all anxious to vote
and pleading for equal rights"
quailed before the mandates of the
law and became just plain frightened
women when confronted with the pro-
spect Of going to the House of Deten-
ton without being allowed to first pro-
cure lingerie, toilet articles and 9TH
er little things necessary to feminine
comfort.
Unfeeling police, however, ruled for
once that they should be treated as
equals" and they were driven off
to their cells without being allowed
to make preparations. Their next step
was to send hurry call to suffrage
headquarters for apparel and toilet ar
ticles, but as time for Tights out" ap-
preached they faced going to bed as
best they might, just as some half a
dozen other women prisoners were
