NEW YORK, April 1.-The COM
bat between Fred Fulton and Carl
Morris. which will take place next
Wednesday at the Manhattan Sport
ing club in Harlem. will feature this
weeks boxing program. The bout
should be extremely peppery. This
will be due in large measure to the
irritation on the part of Fulton due

the Minnesotan IN four rounds two
years ago.
Fulton denies that ne was knock
ed out, but admits that he was
beaten by Morris The Rochester
giant is sure, however, that Morris
has little chance to repeat his vic
tory.
Bill Browne has been selected to
referee the bout. Charley White
was the first choice but he had to
decline on account of poor health
White isn't as clipper as he was in
his old eagle-eye" days and he
realizes that yanking these two
giants of the ring apart would be
too great a risk.

ALL MEN CALLED
ON BY GERMANY
Hindenburg Will Make Su-
preme Effort to Bring War
to Close This Year.

COPENHAGEN. Denmark (via
London). April . - Germany, ac-
cording TO information reaching
here from Berlin. now is ga-lering
to the colors every available man
for "a supreme military effort TO
bring the war to a victorious con-
clusion in this years campaign
goal which Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg and his advisers consider
by no means impossible of attain
ment.
Without altering formally the
law of military service, the German
authorities have in practice extend
ed the period of service beyond the
45th year and are retaining with
the colors and in many instances
for fighting duty with active units
in the front line, landsturm men
who have passed this age.
The policy of the German war
department, as stated in the rel his
tag last week by a military repre-
sentative is TO Overdraw men over
40 from the front line after they
have done six months Of duty there.
but military exigencies compel the
holding of these over-age men for
service in the so-called etape. or re-
gion behind the actual lighting
front.
Muster Older Men.
For some time the German au-
thOrities. in a grand combing out of
men earlier pronounced unfit for
service, have been mastering men
on the very verge of the age limit.
but up to the present they have an
nounced that the necessity has not
yet arisen for legislation raising the
age limit to 65, as has been done III
Austria Hungary.
The operations of the labor serv-
ice law, now in full swing, are fur
ther releasing for service at the
front every available man behind
the lines, every man capable of car
rying a rifle, so that the next two
or three months should see the
German armies at their maximum
size.

able factory and employing every
available machine on war work and
manning them with labor obtained
under the labor service law is con

1t is uncertain whether the often
sive will be directed in the east or
in the west.
German newspapers now are
thoroughly broken TO the censorship
and the publication of field post let
ters has ceased, so the most careful
scrutiny of the German press gives
no indications as to what direction
the troops, released by the shorten
ing and Strengthening of the Somme
line, are going.
There is reason to believe that
the Encouragement has by no means
reached its limit, particularly in the
southern sector.

must WORK OR not EAT
Five Negroes Arraigned in The Po-
lice Court This Morning to Answer
Charge of Idleness.

Among the cases before the Pollce
Court this morning were those OF
five negroes who were charged with
refusing to work when employment
was offered them by merchant on
the. river front. According to the evi--
.dence, the accused had been engaged
in transporting salt from railroad
ears into the store Of the complain
:at who testified that the men
could earn from 80 to 40 cents per
hour. He also said that it was neces-
sary to make new schedules every
day, as thre was always some feat
ure about the work which the ac-
cused were wont to bring up before
they could be induced to labor.
The first of the accused to speak
in his own defense alleged that he
was physically unfit to handle sacks
of salt containing 200 pounds. Others
had similar reasons to urge for de-
clining the proffered employment
Some plead advancing age, etc.
Justice Cation told the accused.
that they who refused to work should
not eat, and further that should they
fail to find employment within the
following hour, where they could
make money for themselves, they
would be rearrested and given ninety
days upon the. roads, where they
would labor without pay and in the
interests fthe state of Virginia.
