 EQUIPMENTS
First Major Increment of Ma tional Army Mobilized and New On Way to Various Cantonments Throughout Country.
tBy Review Leased WireJ.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. - While mobilization of the first major incre- ment- of he National army was pro ceeding today throughout the country, Secretary Baker ana he chiefs of the war department appeared before the senate appropriations committee to present requests for an additiOnai s7S7,416,OOO with which to provide equipment for total force of 2,300,000 men.
 Ordnance for Men
 Included among the items is the ordance equipment for the next 500,- 900 men of the National army, al though the 3O0,OO0 or more on the move today toward the training can tonments are only half of the first call.
 Mobilization Smooth
 Dispatches from all parts of the country indicated that mobilization was being carried forward smoothly and amid scenes of popular enthusi- asm. Almost the entire 45 per cent of the first force of 6S7,000 men will be under military control and training by Saturday.
 Essentials Provided
 Every essential for the halts and comfort of the men has been provided for. They will be fed and sheltered without difficulty, and their arms, uni forms and balance of their war eQulp- ment will be ready for them as rapid ly as they are ready ro use it.
 Busy Days Ahead
 There are busy days ahead at the cantonments. Not only must the men be examined by military doctors and finally accepted for army service, but they must be organized immediately into provisional companies for admin istrative purposes and to make pos sible their final assignments to infant ", cavalry or artillery or to the spe- cial corps.
 Partly Equipped
 Pending the time when the fighting forces of the National army begin to take shape it is not essential that full uniform equipment be available for every man. Many of the young re- serve officers who are to command units of the National army are not now at the cantonments. For addi- tional training, after their graduation from the officers training camps, some have been attached to National Guard units; others are at service schools preparing to become instruc- tors to the batteries, machine-gun companies, signal battalions and other highly specialized arms.
 Commanders Envied
 Regular officers assigned to com mand regiments of the National army are looked upon somewhat enviously by their comrades. It is common eX- pression among the officers that the task of training the absolutely new forces is an inspiring one to man who likes ro see his company, troop or battery develop from day to day. The National army men have no old theories of soldering to learn. They are ready to put all the vim of youth immediately into the lessons of today from the battle fronts.

Suede Reticence
 Probably COUers
 National aLChagrin
fRr Review Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Sejt. 19.-Sweden's official reticence concering exposures made by Secretary Lansing of the part her diplomatic agents have taken in transmitting German messages is re garded here largely as cloak to GOV CT what must necessarily be an em barrassing internal reform.
 Officials Not Anxious.
 Officials of the state department to- day made no effort to conceal the fact that the United States is disposed to accept the unofficial statements of re gret and indignation from Admiral Lindman, minister of foreign affairs at Stockholm, as a true indication of the Swedish peoples attitude. Cable grams from London, have quoted a spokesman of the British government as saying that the same admissions made to it by the foreign minister would be regarded there as satisfac. tory. Until official admission of a measure of guilt is made, however. and promises of greater care in the fu- ture are given, it appears improbable that Swedish diplomatic representa- tives will be afforded the same facill. ties for the transmission of their dis patches.
 Messages Delayed.
 Although the American government has not placed any restrictions on the Swedish legation here there is daily evidence that code messafes sent to and from Stockholm through cable stations in the control of Great Brit ian are being subject to indefinite de lay.
 Changes In Government.
 Rejorts from Stockholm that chang es in the government would include the placing of Admiral Lindman in the premier's seat have gone for towards convincing this government that Swedish sentiment has been so arous- ed that formal assurances will soon come that such incidents as those dis covered will not be repeated.
 No Mexican Action.
 The disclosure of the part played by the Swedish representative in Mexico when he acted as messenger for minister von Eckhardt is not re- garded by state department officials as having created a situation demand ing any action by Mexico.

RELATIONS WITH

 BROKEN IN SOUTH
Argentine Senate Votes by Overwhelming Majority to Break Of Diplomatic Rela- tions with Pirate Nation.
;By Review Leased Wlre. ]

Al SNAito othoNC Oe q NONC Ol 90 lO I today declared for the breaking off of relations with German.
 The resolution now goes to the chamber of deputies. There is strong public feeling in favor of it's final passage.
 By Review Leased Wire.l
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. = News that the Argente senate had voted overwhelmingly to sever diplomatic relations with Germany was received in Washington tonight with gratifi- cation and no little surprise.
 Situation Aggravated.
 Officials had recognized that recent disclosures concerning cablegrams to- Berlin by the German minister at Buenos Aires through the Swedish foreign office had aggravated the sit uation brought about by Germany's sinking of Argentine ships, but it had been assumed that, with the German minister handed his passports. no further official action would be taken pending receipt of Berlin's explana- tion of the messages.
 Would Be Welcomed.
 Although it is understood the state departments purpose in making pub lie copies of the cablegrams was only to expose the German governments worldwide system of duplicity and in- trigue, it is no secret that Argentine's participation in the war would be vel comed.
 Effect Powerful. .. Even the breaking off of relations, it is pointed out, would have a pow erful effect on public opinion in all South American countries where Ger man influences are known to be strong.
 Is Food Producer.
 That action also probably would re- suit in considerable benefit to the allies by restricting Argentine grain and Meat exports to neutral countries through which they might find their way to Germany.
 Argentine is now the only good neutral food producing country.

H0B0KEN REBELS
City Authorities Refuse to Close Sa- looms at 10 D. m., in COnformance With Military Order.

New York, July 12.-The request of Brig. Gen. N. M. Wright that saloons on the Hoboken waterfront should be closed at 10 D. m. was finally refused yesterday, after eight days of argu- ment, by the Hohoken city commits slonerS, who defied the threat of the army to force the closing of the saloons if the city authorities did not take the action requested. The com- missioners, however, did vote to close all saloons throughout the city from midnight to a. m., and gave orders to saloonkeepers along the water front that they should keep. their places closed from midnight of Satur- day to o'clock on Monday morning.
 The New Jersey state law requires that all saloons shall be closed from midnight of Saturday until 6 a. m. Monday, but side-door business is the rule and not the exception in many urban communities. Nearly 200 Hoboken saloon keepers attended the meeting of the commissioners at which the ruling was made. May or Patrick F. Griffin told the waterfront liquor dealers that he would expect their cooperation in keeping closed on Sundays, and thereby reaching a solution of the liquor problem (which should be to the satisfaction of the military authorities"
