DUMA ORDERS AN
 EARLY OFFENSIVE
WOULD BE TREASON TO HER AL LIES TO DELAY ACTloN--SEP-
 ARATE PEACE STUNNED.

Petrograd- Duma in secret session has passed a resolution for an immediate offensive by the Rus sian troops The resolution declares a separate peace with Germany or pro longed inactivity on the battle front to be ignoble treason toward Russia's allies for which future generations never would pardon the Russia of the pesent day.
 "The Duma, therefore, considers, the resolution adds, that the safety of Russia and the maintenance of the liberties which have been obtained lie in an immediate offensive in close cooperation with Russia's allies.
 Members of the American commits sion devoted a day to informal confer esces with prominent Russians. Elihu Root, head of the mission, met Alex ander J. Guchkoff, chief of the muni- tions bureau. Ambassador Francis IS arranging other small dinners and luncheons to enable the members ot the American mission to meet the Russian cabinet ministers.
 The Americans are arranging foP visits to Moscow, Kiev and Odessa and possibly to Roumania. Rear Ad- miral Glennon and other naval offl- cers will visit the Russian naval cen ters independent of the commission movements. Maj.-Gen. Scott and the offices of his staff will make independ- ent visits to military places.
 Indications are that the commission will remain in Russia three or four weeks.
 The announcement that the cabi- net had decided to suggest confer ence of the entente allies for examl- nation of treaties was followed by the publication of the note sent to the other governments in question: The note suggests a conference to revise the agreements existing among the allies as to war aims, with the excep- tion of the London agreement, which proyides that none of the signatory powers shall conclude separate peace.
 The first act of the Pan-Russian congress of all councils of workmen's and soldiers delegates, upon which de- bends the immediate destiny of Russia in regard to both international and do- mestic questions, was to ratify the expulsion by the provisional govern ment of the Swiss socialist Robert Grimm. who is reported to have been the medium through which the Ger mans attempted to arrange a separate peace with Russia.

MACEDONIAN TO BE
 NEW WAR CENTER
OFFENSIVE UNDER GENERAL SARRAIL'S FORCES SEEMS
 TO BE NEAR.

New York; he massing of entente troops in Thessaly, south of the cen ter of the line now held by General Sarrails forces, taken in connection with the withdrawal of British forces on the extreme eastern wing, along the lower reaches of the Struma river, apparently is an indication that big events are in the making in the Mace donian theater in an attempt to re- take Serbia or at least that portion of it as far as Nish, through which runs the famous Berlin Constantine pie railway.
 Along the Vardar and Morava river valleys, northward through Serbia, undoubtedly would prove easier ground over which to operate than northward along the Struma and through western Bulgaria to the june tion of the railway at Sofia. No inn pediment is being placed in the way of the troops that have been landed 1 in Thessaly and with the departure of former King Constantine from the country, the Greeks are said to have | become more friendly to the entente 1 cause by placing their adherence in the provisional government of Eliph- ! therios Venizelos.
 Although on the eastern wing the British have given up many villages which they previously burned, they are holding tightly to the bridgehead position on the left bank of the river | Struma in the Lake Tahinos-Butkovo section, northeast of Saloniki. That the retirement of the British was vol untary is indicated by the Bulgarian official report, which does not men tion any fighting. There has, how ever, already been some activity on 1 the part of the British in the Vardar- Lake Doiran sector, but Sofia reports that the attempt made by them to ad- vance near Daulti was repulsed.
 East of Arras, on the front in France, the British troops have been compelled to fall back from advanced positions before an attack delivered by the Germans, which was covered by heavy bombardment. Otherwis there has been no fighting anywhere in France or Belgium, except by raid ing parties and by the artillery wings of the opposing forces.
 The Russian army and navy are giv- ing more evidence of aggressive in- tent, by increasing activities in vari- ous sectors, notably Volhynia and Ga lacia.
 The Russian naval arm has been SO largely in evidence in Baltic waters that Berlin announces that it has been found necessary to carry out ex. tensive air raiding operations on Rus sian bases in this area.

AMERICAN ADMIRAL
 LEADS ALLIED NAVY
SIMS IN GENERAL CHARGE Or FORCES IN IRISH MATTRESSES
 ALLIED SENIOR OFFICER.
RESPONSIBILITIES ARE BIG
During Absence of British Naval Com mander-n-chief Vice Admiral Sims Takes Charge of the Allied
 Naval Forces.

Washington.-A brief message from London brought the Navy Department it's first news of the appointment of Vice Admiral Sims to command the allied naval forces in Irish waters dur ing the absence of the commander of that district The department has no information as to the admiraPs new responsibilities.
 The government has given Admiral Sims wide powers to enable him to meet any situation that may arise
 Much of his time has been spent in London and Paris, and advices are the first to indicate that he has been at sea with his ships. The news led to much speculation as to what American warship he might be using as a flagship. The only facts disclosed by the department have been that destroyers have been sent to British ports and the naval collier Jupiter to a French port with supplies.
 Tremendous responsibilities have been placed on Admiral Sims. The tale of torpedoed ships in Irish wa ters is an oft-repeated one. It has been said that even without the Amer ican vessels, the British have had thousands of destroyers, submarine chasers of all sizes and kinds, mine sweepers, aircraft and every other known method of combating subma- rines posted in these waters in the effort to keep open the shipping ] lanes.
 All these forces now are under Ad- miral Sims. On him also rests prob ably the duty of arranging for the arrival of all vessels plying Irish wa ters.
 By some it is said England's action might have political effect in Ire land, where the situation is turbulent with the approach of the fish con, yention period. It might tend to show, it was suggested, that the Brit ish and American governments are n perfect accord.
 The text of the official British statement reads:
 During a short absence of the British naval commander in chief on the coast of Ireland, Vice Admiral Sims of the United States navy has hoisted his flag as allied senior off cer in geIferal charge of operations of the allied naval forces in Irish waters"

 A hearty cheer greeted the mission as they passed out of the station and several red flags were waived. Big crowds, free at lunch hour, greeted the mission all along the way and showed the warmest interest in the far dis tant allies.
 On the way the procession passed the headquarters of the Italian and Belgian missions, representatives of which watched them passing with in. terest. The flags of Russia, Belgium and Italy are now flying from the state, war and navy building in recog- nition of the missions now here.

 The sinister intrigue Is being no less actively conducted in this country than in Russia and in every country in Flu rope to which the agents and dupes of the imperial German government can get access.
 United States in War for Freedom.
 The great fact that stands out above all the rest is that this Is a Peoples war, war for freedom and justice and self-government amongst all the na- tions of the world, a war to make the world safe for the peoples who live in 1t and have made 1t their own, the German people themselves included i; and that with us rests the choice to break through all these hypocrlsies and patent cheats and masks of brute force and help set the world free, or else stand aside and let 1t be dominated iong age through by sheer weight of arms and the arbitrary choices of self constituted masters, by the nation which can maintain the biggest armies and the most irresistible armaments- power to which the world has af- forded no parallel and in the face of which political freedom must wither and perish.
 For us there is but one choice. We have made 1t. Woe be to the man or group of men that seeks to stand in our way in this day of high resolution when every principle we hold dearest is to be vindicated and made secure for the salvation of the nations We are ready to plead at the bar of history, and our flag shall wear new luster.

herican Array Headquarters in
France National guardsmen from
every state in TIL Union have arrived
IN France, it is permitted to be an
nounced. They are among the troops
now training, or lately arrived.
While it is not permitted to disclose
the identity of units, it may be said
that all those which sailed from the
United States have arrived safely and
in good health, and that some already
are in training within sound of the
guns on the battle front.
They are showing spirit in keeping
with the purpose of all concerned to
make the American expeditionary
force homogeneous American army, in
which each division, whether regular
national guard or national army, can
not be distinguished in efficiency from
the others. The former State troops
are billeted over wide area and are
pronounced excellent soldiers.
The Guardsmen have been arriving
in the American zone for many weeks.
They are scattered somewhat, lent far
as possible the unit of each state has
been kept close together, except in
one case. They found the regular
army had made good preparations for
them, and while many are billeted in
houses in French towns, others have
been Quartered in low wooden bar
racks especially erected.
The troops from the various States
have been recognized by the French
population and have been welcomed
enthusiastically. Many of the units on
arriving in billet towns wore the
French red, white and blue cockade
pinned to their campaign hats. These
were given to the soldiers when they
landed at base ports. After sufh-
cient time to rest from the journey,
which in some cases has been ex-
tremely tiresome, the troops have
been set to work training for actual
service at the front In all quarters
they are declared to be most enthusi-
astic and their soldierly qualities have
drawn high praise from the French
instructors.
Observation-Disclosures Of the
arrival in France of the first National
Guard units gives the first official no
tice that an extensive troop move
ment has been accomplished despite
hostile submarines, shortage of troop
and supply ships and other obstacles,
but without the loss of man. Thou
sands of men have been moved to the
seaboard from all parts of the country,
loaded on transports and safely land
ed in France without any general
knowledge of the facts having been
disclosed" TO the country at large.
War Department officials were graft
fed at General Pershing's decision to
announce the arrival of the National
Guard forces, but permission to pub
lis,h the designations of the guard
units now at the training centres in
France still is withheld. Unless Gen
eral Pershing sees fit to release the
information there is no present pros
pect of As publication.
