AMERICAN SENTRIES
FIRED ON, | WOUNDED

Portland, Me, March 23.-Private
John Poor of the Third company, ar
tillery corps, at Fort Williams, was
shot and probably fatally wounded
early today while attempting to cap
ture two men who had made their
way into the reservation despite the
presence of a heavy guard, and had
reached a point near one of the bat
teries of 12-inch guns. The. men es-
capped.
Because of the reported presence
of suspicious character near the forts
the guard force has been greatly in
creased.
On Wednesday night a shot was
fired at a soldier on guard at Port
land head light. More experienced
men were later detailed for duty at
the fort and early today two men at
tempted to pass in the darkness. Poor
grappled with them and was shot in
the groin. The chances are against
his recovery. The bullet was from
a revolver Of a large calibre.

necessitates this restriction.
Applicants for second lieutenants
commissions are being assured that
every opportunity will be given after
enrolment in that grade to advance
themselves to higher rank.
The department has appealed to
young men who care to offer their
services to apply without delay to
the commander of the military de-
partment in which they live for
necessary papers and information.
Letters should be addressed to The
Commanding General, Eastern De-
partment, San Antonio, Texas, OF
Western Department, San Francisco,
Cal. They will receive prompt at
tention and arrangements for the ex-
animation of an applicant will be
made to suit his convenience as
enarly as possible.

troops. 1t is fighting men who are
lacking, line officers who may look
for service at the front in time Of
war. Army officers believe the fail
ure to fill up this reserve is due Only
to lack of information as TO the re-
quirements, for it is the fighting
lines that are attractive to young
men in war time.
Eventually the reserve officers
training corps, composed of units at
universities, schools and colleges, will
provide more than 5000 men a year,
it is estimated, for reserve commits
sions. The first fruits of this scheme
for educating reserve officers, how
ever, win not come until 1918, and
thehn not more than 5000 junior Off
GERS can be expected to be turned into
the reserve. In all probability many
of these will be required for regular
army commissions, reducing the re-
serve strength by that much.
The law prescribes that no man
shall be commissioned in the reserve
without having passed examination.
The war department has realized that
lack of previous military experience
of any kind is probably preventing
young men past their college days
from making application. For that
reason every effort has been made
to make it known throughout the
country that military experience is
not required. Men will be commits
stoned who have never worn a uni
form or faced drill sergeant. The
army will gladly undertake to furnish
those who are otherwise suitable
with the necessary professional train
ing after they have entered the ser
| vice.
This applies, however, only to thu
grade of second lieutenant. FRS
lieutenants, captains and major
must show previous military expert
ence to earn their commissions. Tn,

which they may be put. Only sim
pie field uniform is required for re,
serve officers, involving little ex-
pense, and the government assures
this cost also eventually.
In war time reserve officers would
be required to report for duty either
in person or by letter, as he may d.
rect, to the commanding general of
the department in which they reside
They will be assigned to regular or
volunteer regiments, as the occasion
warrants, and when called out will re

MAY ELECT SECOND
L|EUTENANTS FROM
PRIVATE CITIZENS

Washington, March 24.-The grade
of second lieutenant in the officers
reserve corps of the army has been
thrown open by Secretary Baker to
men without any military experience
whatever, provided they are physical
" and mentally adapted to military
life. An urgent plea has been sent
out to men between II and 80 years
all over the country t send in appli-
cations for commissions with assur-
ances that the army viii supply after
enrolment the military training
necessary to fit them for duty.
Under the national defense act, the
crps should be able to furnish Of
fcers for force of 100000 volun-
teers in war time, and also serve as a
reservoir from which additional Of
fcers for the regular army could be
drawn at need. Less than 1000 men
have been given reserve commits
sions in the line, despite the fact that
the law has been in operation for
more than eight months. Applica-
tions are coming in slowly and army
officers are using every means IN
their power TO attract young men tc
this service as patriotic duty.
There appears to be no lack of mer
desiring to serve in the staff corps re,

quartermasters division and the medi
