LudendOrff Worried Over Talk
 of Revolution in Germany
Captured Secret Order Shows That Civilians Are Trying To Arm Selves, Many Soldiers Are Desertng
 And Officers Express Doubts of Victory.

British Headquarters, in France, Aug. Fl (By The Associated Press.) J. Germany's military leaders now have become distinctly worried over the prospects of revolution in Germany.
 General Ludendorff, in a captured secret order, has taken steps to em- ploy the assistance of his commandinf officers and various government agencies to help him stamp out the glowing spark which has been seen. The order, which is more Illuminating than anything which has come out of Germany in many months, follows:
 Tt has come to my knowledge through a letter addressed to the Royal Prussian Ministry of War that men on leave have spoken publicly of revolution which is to break out af- ter the war.
 Civilians Arming Selves.
 "A soldier, said to have come from the industrial region of Rhenisch Westphalia, declared in a train that in his home district, men were going on leave, taking weapons with them for the aforesaid object and that it was easy to take home German or captured revolvers as we'll as hand grenades separated into two pars.
 'I desire that the clothing of men going on leave be searched as test cases before their departure. It will be possible to carry this out at the baths and dressing stations.
 Il wish to impress upon all super for officers who happen to hear such Obiectionah1o talk oy who hoar of if through others that they must deal with it at once and without hesitation. The home authorities and the director of militarp railways have been direct ed to take corresponding measures"

Salt Lake, Utah, Aug. 21.-Seven enemy aliens of the third war prison camp at Fort Douglas are in the post hospital with their bodies full of buck shot as the result of an attack upon prison guard early this morning, it became known late today.
 All of the seven were more or less severely woundede, it is reported, but only one is in serious condition. The names will not be made public until a detailed report of the matter is sub- mitted to Washington.
 Tuesday night the prison officials discovered tunnel which the pri. soners had started under one of the buildings in an effort to dig out.
 The discovery put the prisoners in an ugly mood, it is said. During the night a dozen or more of them are reported to have congregated outside their barracks and to have begun to utter vile epithets to the guard who was walking his beat.
 The guard ordered them to disperse and return to their beds. The prison CTS refused. The guard is said to have repeated his orders to them to desist and retire, whereupon the prisoners began to attack him with stones and missiles.
 Under this attack which gave indi- cations of assuming an organzed at opened fire with his shotgun. tempt to break for liberty, the guard

GFN. BERNHARD|'S REPUTATION IS
 BEING SMASHED
Famous German Writer Commands Corps That
 British Are Licking.

London, Aug. 21 CBritish Wireless Service).-The present series of Ger man defeats have involved a German officer, who is perhaps better known to the reading public of the allied nations than almost any of tho Ger man generals.
 He is General Bernhardi. the author of the famous books which so frankly revealed Germany's war aims.
 He commands the 55th corps of the Sixth army, which has been steadily driven back by the British across the plain of Lys toward Armentieres.
 The 55th corps has been badly hit in endeavoring to hold Merville salient confronting the forest of Niephe.
 It lost many positions and was bad ly shaken by the enfilading fire of the British batteries as it retired.

, ing the signature of the chief of staff |of the Forty First Infantry Division recltes that courts martial have had an inceasing number of cases where |subordinates emphatically refused to accompany their units into the line and where the Superior officers have neglected to enforce obedience by afiling to compel the towards to go forth into the front line."
 Obedience in this respect, the order said, must be enforced even though 1t may be necessary to resort to force and the use of arms.
 It is right, the order said, even to go to the length of shooting man as an extreme necessity.
 Another captured order deals with the investigation into a case where a German airplane was shot down, prob ably in mistake by German troops, and the occupants secretly buried. "Such procedure" the order said. "is unworthy of the German army"
 Officers Express Doubts.
 In still another document, General Ludendorff says there are constant reports of German officers on leave violating utterances that are calculat- ed to awaken feelings of doubt as to German preparedness for battle. He mentions an officer in Berlin who said that further offensives were impos- sible on the western front because of the shortage of horses and oats. Gen. eral Ludend0rff warns officers against spreading unfavorable rumors He declares that it is remarkable that they never bring encouraging news home from the front and adds that it is "bettertit ito color. the sun with rosy hue than with black paint"
