Foe Outstrips Allies
In Increasing Forces
Germany is still increasing her
forces faster than the Allies have been
able to increase theirs, in spite of the
Americans being shipped abroad, and
in spite of the Italians sent into France.
The rushing of American troops to
speeded up. Further shipping will
have to be converted both by this
country and by the Allies to the use of
the American army.
Up to the present Hindenburg has
won the man power race. The state
ment by the British General Staff pub
lished this morning, the frankest COM
ment of an official sort ever published
on the war, makes this plain. The
emphasis in it is all on man power.
Our inferiority in numbers is placed
first among the disadvantages from
which the Allies suffer. And all the
other disadvantages, exterior lines,
vulnerable points, and lack of room
to maneuver in the North, either
spring from shortage of men or are
Germany Has Taken
Over Austrian Army
Can Germany keep rushing men to
the West front faster than the Allies :?
boiy To
Developments in Austria, the extension
of Germany's power over Austria, and
the recent agreement between the two
powers letting Germany treat Austrias
soldiers as her own, Austria's rail
roads as her own and making the food
problems of certain parts of Austria
a German problem, for that is what
the agreement recently published
practically amounts to.
Austrans are to be brigade ed with
Germans and Germans with Austrians,
with the officers of either power over
the soldiers of the other. That is
the polite way it, is putt but it doubt

into the German army under German
commanders.
This means the combing of Austria

Austrians, except Austrian artillery,
have not been used on the Western
front. Austria has been afraid to
provoke her people by sending her
subjects to fight other than a defensive
war But the Communication of Aus

that when Germany needs Austrians
to keep up the hammerng on the West
front she will take them.

JAPAN TO RAID SIBERIA.
America Agrees With Allies on Plan
to Protect All interests.

Washington, March 6.-Exchanges
regarding the situation in Siberia and
the proposed action there by the Jap
anese are continuing, and apparently
have developed the fact that there is
no difference in principle between
Japan and the allies or between the
United States and Japan, although the
United States has not given formal
assent to any operations which may
be undertaken.
1t is understood there is still a
chance that peace and order in ST.
IBERIA and the elimination of German
intrigue and propaganda can be Sc
cured by the Japanese without the ex-
hibition of actual force.

Washington.-The city of Denver in
the Supreme Court lost it's fight of
twenty years duration against the
Denver Union Water Company over
consumers rates.
Injunctions restraining the city
from enforcing an ordinance reducing
water rates 20 per cent alleged to
be confiscatory on the ground that it
would take the company's property for
public use without compensation, were
sustained
Justice Holmes, Brandeis and Clarke
dissented, being of the opinion the
proceedings should be dismissed. Low
er court valuations of the company's
property at $13.415,S99 were upheld.
Since the proceedings were instituted
the city obtained an option to pur-
chase the property on the basis of that
valuation.

JOHN REDMOND

London, March John e. Red
mond, the Irish Nationalist leader,
died at 7:40 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing. Death was due to heart failure,
following a recent operation for an in
testinal obstruction. This was borne
courageously and it relieved the pa
tient, but heart failure intervened
Tuesday night. For more than twenty
five years John e. Redmond fought
for home rule in Ireland and for a
majority of that time he was the rec
ognized leader of Ireland's struggle
for liberty"
Redmond was born in 1851, the son
of w. A Redmond, member of Parlia-
ment from Ballytrent He was first
elected to Parliament from New Ross,
in 1881. In 1885 she was elected from
New Wexford and in 1891 from Water
ford. He had visited America several
times, generally for the purpose Of
raising funds to push the home rule
movement. His son, William Archer
Redmond, was elected to Parliament
from East Tyrone in 1911.
Redmond's brother, Maj. William H.
X. Redmond, member of Parliament
from Glare, was killed in action on the
west front recently.

as to enable it to reassemble its forces
for the supreme struggle against i'm
perialism, and to assist the proletariat
of other European countries to revolt
against its oppressors.

mountains rather than submit to the

London, March 6.-The often-re-
iterated statement of English corre-
spondents that anything may happen
in Russia at any time and that
nothing need cause surprise may pos
sibly be illustrated by the develop
ments there pending the ratification of
the Russo-German peace treaty, ac-
cording to reports appearing here.
1T is said that a section of the Boil
sheviki is in no wise pleased with the
surrender of Nikolai Lenine, the Boil
shevik premier, and is inclined to join
the Left Social Revolutionaries, the
war spirit of which, according to the
Daily Nails Petrograd correspondent
predominates and constitutes a for
midable opposition to the peace party.
This war party, it is said, advises that
the PetTograd governmental institu-
tions be removed into the interior of
Russia, from where they can continue
the fight against the Germans.
Opposition to the Germans is said
to be greater in the Moscow and pro-
vincial councils than in Petrograd.

tion of Lenine and Trotzky, the Boil
