Another semi-official hint
from Washington that the 91st
division, now at Camp Lewis,
might see service in Russia rath-
er than in France was contained
in a special dispatch today to the
Seattle P.-I.
In an article commenting on
Maj. Gen. Woods assignment to
command the western department
of the army, after being relieved
from command of his division,
the seth, the Washington corre-
spondent says this is regarded in
some circles as possibly putting
him in line for an important task

He adds:
ut is estimated that a Russian
expedition, going by way of ST.
IBERIA from the Pacific coast, is
not improbable, and that Gen.
Wood, by reason of his expert
ence in Cuba and elsewhere, is
singularly equipped to assist in
the rehabilitation of Russia"
This seems to confirm other
conjectures from Washington
that Pacific coast troops would be
sent west rather than east.
On the other hand, the United
Press today disposes of Gen.
Wood as follows:
Following his conference with
President Wilson, there was a re-
port today he would be assigned
to command American troops in
Italy. 1t appears certain he will
not be placed where there would
be danger Of a clash between him
and Gen. Pershing. Army Off

WAUKESHA, Wis, May 20
Grace Lusks future probably
will be in the jury's hands at 6
o'clock tonight.
The final arguments dealing
with the shooting of Mrs. Mary
Newman last June were made to-
day.
While only one woman has
ever been convicted of murder in
Wisconsin, galleryites at the Lusk
trial do not anticipate an acquit-
tai verdict. Third degree man
slaughter with sentence of two
to four years is the popular fore
cast.
The state asked a life sentence
for first degree murder. Prose-
cutor Corirgan's closing address
today was aimed at the insanity
defense.
Miss Lusk entered upon the
last day of the three weeks trial
looking extremely tired. For her
the ordeal was far from over.
The verdict, expected tonight,
means life or death to her, she
declared.
