NO SECRETS IN BRITAIN NOW
Lawyers and Doctors Must Tell All
In Wartime, on Demand of Mill
tary Authorities.

There are no secrets from the state
I'm wartime. Lawyers and doctors are
included in the phrase "person or per
sons of any class or description" who
must tell on demand, under the Brit
ish defense of the realm act.
The issue has been raised pointedly
In Ireland, where the military authori-
ties arrested a lawyer, Ii. o. Moran,
and his client, James Ryan, for re
fusing to state how certain documents
read in a Limerick law case came into
their possession.
In a statement justifying the posi-
ton of parliament in abolishing the
secrecy which has surrounded lawyer
and client, doctor and patient Sir VIII
liam Bull of the house of commons,
says:
"The safety and defense of the realm
must overrule everything. Doctors and
priests are under the same obligations
as lawyers TO give Information to the
military authority who demands it.
Many prominent people already
have discovered how extensive the
powers of the executive authorities
are under the wartime laws. Moth
ing has appeared in the newspapers
about certain occurrences, of which
sensational stories may be told after
the war"

LIqht colors the Best.

A recent investigation into the light
rejecting qualities Of dlfferent-colored
walls sheds some practical light on the
question OF what color the walls Of
living rooms should be tinted. The
results Of the research show that
white walls reflect by far the most
light: they throw back 60 per cent OF
the light that falls upon them. The
other col0rs tn order Of their light
rejecting qualities are: Cream, rose,
yellow. blue and green.

"Bounty Jumpers"

The term bounty jumper" was APP
piled to class Of mercenary and
worthless fellows during the Civil war
who enlisted to get the bounty offered
for recruits and then deserted and en-
listed again for another bounty. The
practice prevailed even during the
revolutionary war. and at one time 1t
was so prevalent that Washington Is
sued an order against those who prac'
ticed it. They were warned by Wash
lngton that whoever is convicted
thereof and sentenced to die may CON
slider his execution certain and ineyit-
able" During the Civil war they were
shot without mercy.

Carranza Wins in Mexico.

General Venustiano Carranza WIS
elected president of Mexico by what
is believed to have been the larg st
vote ever cast in the republic.
Although the voters had the privi-
lege of writing in or declaring any
name they desired, General Carranza
received all but a few scattering bal
lots. The estimated vote cast runs
all the way from several hundred thou.
sand to a million.
The presidential election was pro-
vfded for in articles adopted by the
constitutional assembly which met at
Queretaro. Many Of the old residents
say this was the first real election
ever held in the country. Reports
from various parts Of the Republic
indicate that there was no disturbance

formal notice that American
ships traversing the German SUBJ
marine zone are to carry "arm.
ed guard for the protection Of
vessels and the lives G the
persons on board" was sent by the
state department to embassies and
legations of all foreign governments
in Washington.
Following is the text of the COM
munication:
"In view of the announcement of the
imperial German government on Jan.
uary 81, 1917, that all ships. those Of
neutrals included, met with in certain
zones of the high seas, would be sunk
without any precaution being taken
for the safety of the persons on board
and without the exercise Of visit and
search, the government of the United
States has determined TO place upon
all American vessels sailing through
the barred areas an armed guard for
the protection of the vessels and the
lives Of the persons on board"
The notification, it is expected, will
be sent to Germany by the Swiss le-
cation. No obstacle will be placed In
the way of such action. Whether neu-
trail governments will admit American
armed ships to their ports is for them
to decide, but it is not expected OBJ.
jections will be made. Holland is the
only neutral which has barred armed
merchantmen.
State department officials did not
wish to say whether it was mandatory
for American vessels to have arms, or
whether they might sail without them
if they desired. Previously, the navy
department also had refused a ruling.
The navy departments position is
that it will equip with arms all ships
whose owners apply to it.
The work Of arDine merchant ships
begun, the situation passes into a new
period of waiting. Within few DAYS
at most the fist of these armed YES

may mean disaster to the submarine.
But if tho first vessel arrives without
incident in a british port, it will mean
simply that other American vessels
similarly armed will go over the same
route.
Whether an American merchantmen
or a German submarine suffers first
the result will be the same. From the
point of view of Germany at least, war
will exist from that day, and opera
tions of submarines from that day will
be strictly on a war basis.

EMPRESS ALEXANDER MISSING
The Cars consort Is Said to be In
SecIusion.

SecIusion.
According to information received
in London, thu Russian people rave
been most distrustful in recent events
Of the personal influence of Empress
Alexander.
She was supposed to exercise the
greatest influence over Emperor Mich
olas. Her whereabouts are not known,
but 1t Is believed she is in seclusion.
The Empress Alexander before her
marriage to the emperor Of Russia, in
1894, was the German Princess AliX
Of -Darmstadt.
Andrew Bonar Law, chancellor Of
the exchequer, announced in the house
Of commons that Emperor Nicholas
had abdicated, and that Grand Duke
Michael Alexandrovitch had been ap'
pointed regent. The soldiers sided
with the duma, but there was no seri-
Gus loss Of life.
The chancellor added that it was
comforting to know that the move
ment was not directed at securing
peace by Russia
The following details of the revolu-
tion have been given to the press from
a source usually we'll informed on
Russian affairs.
"The soldiers refused to act against
the crowd, which started the trouble
when 1t heard CT the ukase issued bv

ma. On Sunday the committee whi h
had met to discuss the food situa ION

cy of President Rodziano, of the 'u-
ma, and included representatives CT
the duma council of the empire d
Of the municipality. The garrison
agreed to support the provisional gov
ernment."
The revolution was comparatively
bloodless. Some fighting took place
on the first day, during which bridges
In Petrograd were blown up In order
to isolate certain sections of the city.
As far as is known here no prominent
persons were killed.
Virtually all the so-called pro-Ger-
man reactionaries are in custody.
The revolution was as successful
as it was sudden. 1t has given the
complete control of the government Of
Russia to the duma, backel by the
army, and what Is termed the Push
the War Party" is now in power.
