bCLSHfyIk M0Vf MAY PRECIPITATf
 ACTION BY LAPS
Crisis Will Come With Re treat of Cossack Leader
 Into Mongolia.

Washington, June 7.-The long talked of military action by Japan and China in Siberia may be precipi- tated by the movement of the Rus sian Bolshevik troops into the Siber- ian province of Transbaikalia, in .pur- suit of the Cossack leader, General Seminoff. If Seminoff retreats into Mongolia, as observers here think he must, the crisis will be at hand, par ticularly as the pursuing Russians are said to be accompanied by large force of Austrians and Germans, the former prisoners of war.
 The crossing of the Onon river by the Bolshevik is construed by the of ficials here as part of 8 campaign to exclude Siminoff from any use of the northern or Amur river branch of the Siberian railroad.
 General 'Seminoff's movements have been closely followed, as it has been realized that his campaign might sud- dely assume great importance for the entente allies, were they brought into harmony in plan to lend him ma terial support.

PLOTTED TO AID IRISH REBELLION AND HELP KAISER Indict 3 Americans and 2 Germans in N. Y. on

 SINN FEN PLOTS

 HunS in IpcIand.

New York, June Five American citizens and two subjects of the Ger man empire. one of them a woman are named as fellow conspirators in two indictments returned by a federal grand jury here today. Investigators declare their operations the most sen sational undertaken by German intel ligence agents since the war began. The indictments allege conspiracy to commit treason and conspiracy to dommit espionage. The assembling and transmission of information rela- tive to Americas prosecution of the war, the destruction of American piers, docks and troop transports with lire, bombs. destruction of quicksilver mines in this country to hamper the manufacture of muni- tions, assisting Germany in taking an armed expedition into Ireland, fo- mentation of 8 revolt against British rule in Ireland, raising of funds in this country with which to finance these operations, and the destruction of munitions factories and mines in Great Britain are charged as ramifi- cations of the intrigue.
 Many Sim Fieners
 The principals in the alleged plot are: Jeremiah A. OLeary, prominent American Sim Feiner. now a fugitive from justice on charges of espionage violations for distribution of alleged anti-draft lieterature in the magazine Bull of which he was formerly edl- tor. Madame" Marie K. De Victorica, alias Baroness von Kretschman, a blonde haired German woman of striking appearanIe and ,ahout 40 years of age, Carl Rodiger, who claims Swiss citizenship, but who is alleged to have come to this coun-' try from Germany under fraudu- lent passport; Willard J. Robinson, of New York, aged 30 and under sus- pended sentence for riotous soap box oratory here in behalf of Sim Fein influences; John P. Ryan, a Buffalo, N. Y. attorney, alleged to have been active in spreading Sim Fein propa- ganda in this country; Albert Paul Frecke, Mount Vernon, N. Y., toy whose affairs now are being administered by Alien Property Palmer; Emil Cooper. identified with Sim Fein authorities in New York: Rudolph Binder and Hugo Schweitzer both Of whom died last year, are the other two "citizen defendants named in the indictments.

 CABINET ON WAR

London, June "A scheme for an allied cabinet on war supplies to es, tablish unity and decision in regard to the food and raw material require ments has been approved by the Brit ish government, according to the po- litical correspondent of the Daily Mail.
 Five program committees will be es- tablished and will include represent atives of Great Britain, France, Italy, and the United States. Each com mittee will coordinate supplies and particular requirements, each member being an expert.
 A great part of all allied resources will be formed by these committees and their reports on supplies and re- quirements will go to the maritime council who will thus know the full measure of their shipping task. Con- petition in allied buying and trans port will be established by unified control.

CROWDER ORDERS
 RIGID SCRUTINY
 Of ASSISTANTS
Provost Marshal General Asks Governor to Seek
 Out "Slackers.o y

Washington, June With the dou- ble purpose of increasing the num- Der of men available for military ser vice and of assuring fairer admins tration of the selective service law, Provost Marshal+General Crowder to- day telegraphed governors of all the states asking immediate investi- 'gation of the draft classification lists everywhere.
 Class one. already exhausted in some localities by the repeated calls, contains 2S.7 per cent of all the regis trans according to the national aver age, but percentages in the 4,5O0 To- cal exemption board districts vary most materially, both up and down the average figures by stacker mar riages and ungrounded claims of right to industrial or agricultural exempt ion.
 General Crowder believes some reg istrants have imposed upon the bur dened local boards to escape, while in other districts an application or the regulations has been perhaps stricter than is intended.
 The governors and the appeal agents are asked to investigate and pass upon the evidence submitted on claims of exemption.
 It was said today that with the gradual exhaustion of class one. un- skilled farm labOrers, whom the boards have been allowed to place at the bottom of the lists, will have to go to cantonments. There will be no change in the policy. and the only re- lief. it is declared, will come from en- forcement of the work or fight policy oenerally

Americans Suffer Heavy Loss
 But Slaughter Numbers of HurlS
German Dead Piled Three Deep Where Fight Took P]ace-Marnes Took 300 Germans, Gained 212
 Miles on Six Mile Front and Hold Paris Road.

With the American Army in Picar dy, June 1.-(By Associated Press, As a result of the two attacks by the Americans against the enemy in the second battle northwest of Chat eau Thierry. 300 prisoners were cap turned and the Americans extended thelr lines over a front of about six miles to depth of nearly 1-2 miles While the losses of the Americans necessarily have been heavy owing to the nature of the fighting, the Ger man dead is piled three deep in places. A number of machine guns were added to the American booty.
 The German prisoners taken by the Americans, many of whom were mere boys, had only when in the line two days. Some of them wore the white 'band of the Prussian guard.
 Thought They Faced British
 The correspondent today talked with 19 year old German prisoner who was sitting under tree eating American bread and drinking French wine The soldier said he had been fighting for a year and half, for the most part in Russia. He carried d l)lCtuI t OI HIS SWcctIlcdIl OH uedNy cardboard which he said had saved his life from American bullet. The youth added that in German there was talks of millions of American sol diers. but that nobody believed it. He did not know that it was the Am orleans opposed to the Germans. He thought the troops were British as they wore English helmets. He added that the German soldiers no longer hope to reach Paris. All of them were sick of the war and he was glad he had been made prisoner.
 Gains Valuable
 The importance of the American gains on the Marne sector may he req lized when it is recalled that only the day before the American entered the line the Germans advanced about ten kilometers. The Americans now are holding the Paris road near Le Chiolet for 2 number of kilometers
 Granhic stories of last nights fiehting were related hy wounded Am ericans today. They said that at one point the Germans crouched behind boulders and opened fire when the

 ON CHILD, IS FINED

Sheridan, June 7-Rufus Kilgore of Poyen, who was arrested last week for an alleged attempt at criminal in- timacy with an eleven-year-old girl, an orphan who resides with her aunt, was tried before Justice of the Peace Kennedy, and was adjudged guilty of "simple assault" and sentenced to pay fine of $10.
 It had been charged by the little girl that Kilgore-who is Al years old with wife and one child-had forcib- ly placed his arms about her, while she was sitting on the ground under a tree, where she had gone to rest while hoeing cotton for Kilgore.
 Kilgore claimed he had no evil in- tentions in placing his hands on the child and that he merely was playing with her in friendly way.
