ment headquarters today to speed up
the return movement o. state troops
from the border so that all organizations
will be home for muster out by April
L. State troops still on the border ap-
proximate 100000 men.
II is understood that a shortage of
funds, due to failure of the army ap-
propriation bill to be passed before ad-
iournment Of congress, caused the war
department to quicken the rate Of speed
at which state troops were being re-
leased under former orders.
Under the plan being followed In send
ing home the remainder of the national
guard units. it was estimated that the
last of them would be moved shortly
after April Is. AS a result of the new
instructions. it will be necessary to ad-
vance dates of departure Of many of the
organizations.
Officers are at work on new SEIZED
ules, but many dates cannot be set def
initely until after advices regarding

KOIb and Schwartz Held
For Further Examination

AHOBOkEN, n. j., March 6.-Fritz
Kolb, a German in whose possession
two bombs and other explosive material
were found yesterday, and Hans
Schwartz, arrested early today, were
held for further examination in court
today in connection with an alleged plot
TO blow up munitions intended for the
entente allies.
Schwartz, who says he is chemist,
thirty-seven years old, was held on sus-
picion. He made a long statement to
Chief Of Police Hayes, in which he re-
vealed, the police allege, plans for an
other explosion at Black Tom, ~ j.,
yesterday, with Kolb and himself as the
conspirators.
Schwartz, the police say, denied that
he was connected in any way with the
Black Tom explosion last summer or
the explosion at Kingsland. The failure
of the plot to blow up Black Tom, the
police declare Schwartz admitted. was
due to faulty construction of the bombs,
Kolb was identified at police head
quarters as a former employe of the
Canadian Car and Foundry company at
Kingsland by Thomas Steele, negro,
also a former worker at that plant.
Steele told the police he worked in the
same room with Kolb where there had
been an explosion previous to the great
fire and that of twenty-eight men en-
ployed in the room, Kolb was the man
who disappeared.
whispers of a bomb plot overheard
several weeks ago in a Hoboken bar
room led to the arrest of Kolb yesterday
and the discovery of the explosives in
his quarters at a small hotel opposite
the piers where the German merchant
vessels have been tied up since the be-
ginning of the war. Several witnesses
have been questioned in an effort to
connect the prisoner with the disastrous
explosion of war munitions at Black
Tom, n. j., and with the destruction of
the plant of the Canadian Car and
Foundry company at Kingsland, N. j.,
where huge quantities of shells were
made for Russia.
The Hoboken police worked on the
case all night in cooperation with the
police of New York and federal detec-
tives. 1t was expected today that more
arrests would follow.

Members Enthusiastic Over

Route, and Declare Showing
in Parade Was Best Ever

Atlanta's Loyal Legion came marching
home again Wednesday, tremendously
proud of the showing they made in the
inaugural parade at Washington. when
the crowds along Pennsylvania avenue
lifted their hats and cheered to the
echo as Mayor Gambler and the ninety
nine other Legionaires swung into view

Secretary McAdoo, we were told, jumped
up and shouted, Three cheers for At

when we marched past, that we couldn
tell whether it was senator's or news

The Legion special came back as it
left, on schedule time, thanks to the eff

the other officials of the Southern rail-

Though they admitted being bit
tuckered, the enthusiasm Of the Lee

turn as when they left, and the account
they gave of the trip was enough to
make any man who heard them regret
that he wasn't along.

Wilson and Aswell. Louisiana; vinson,
Georgia; CarIin and Glass, Virginia;
Dixon, Indiana; Rouse, Johnson, Kir-
cheloe and Sherley, Kentucky; Decker,
Missouri; Gray, Alabama, and Sims of
Tennessee were in a group Of Democrats
who called on the postmaster general
and who were told about the plan.
Democratic leader Kitchin of the house
della led his departure for North Car
DINA to go to the postoffice depart
ment to register his protest.
Most of the congressman who saw
Mr.. Burleson went on the latter's invi-
tation to discuss the new plan for sys-
tematizing postal accounting by estab-
fishing central auditing postoffices in
county or district groups This subject
was overshadowed, however. when the
news of the civil service order was
broken.
On southern member asked if the post
master general had called them there to
ask their views, or to tell them what hao
been done.
81 am telling you what is going to
happen" he replied.
The postmaster general is quoted as
having told them that it was too late
to protest as the order had been de-
termined upon and would be carried out
He intimated that he was not the author
of IT, but that ii was a measure of
efficiency and economy.
MAY HELP REPUBLICANS.
Another member suggested that the
order would put many Republicans in
office, as many of the more active as
sistant postmasters are Republicans re-
tanned by the Democratic postma sters,
and still another wanted to know what
would happen if the one man certified
from the examination were a negro. The
postmaster general, according to those
present replied that the examinations
would have to take place and there would
be mo special privilege to any one"
western Democrat asked why the
order if issued at all, should not pro-
vide for certifying the three highest In
the examination as eligible to postmas-
tership, as was done when the fourth
class postmasters were blanketed into
civil service, instead of combining the
choice to the one person who happened
to stand highest. The postmaster gen
eral said that congress had had the OPP
portunity of legislating to that effect
but did not do so.
In the discomfort voiced by members
after the conference, some of them COM
planned that the order would take out
of political life some of the most &C
tive supporters of the representatives
in congress.
A majority of the Republicans Joined
with Democrats recently in rejecting
a proposition for putting all postmas-
ters under the civil service, when an
amendment to that effect was offered to
an appropriation bill in the house. al
though Republican Leader Mann and
few others favored it.
