RUSSIANS Eating
ONLY HORSE MEAT
No Other Flesh Available with
Price $I.50 Pound.

Petrograd, March l3-Ho"se flesh is
the only meat available in Petros 80,
and queues OF forlorn and hungry
people extend for blocks on each side
OF the butcher shops. A more varied
crowd cannot be imagined. Ragged
and well-dressed children, fur-Clad
women and shabby servants and street
sweepers and army officers wait hour
after hour with unbelievable patience
for few pounds of horse flesh.
Each queue eventually becomes an
indignation meeting against the eS-
isting order OF things. The women
especially are bitter. blaming the Bol-
Sheviki for all their troubles. II one

FRANCE STILL NEEDS
RED CROSS nurse
Speaker Tells Girls That Class Of
Help Desired.

American girls should not go to
France in any other capacity than
that of accredited Red Cross
nurses" said Lieut.. Jean LaBat, OF
the French Mission. in an address
to Y. W. c. A. girls last night at
the association building. Fourteenth
and G streets northwest.
In Lieut.. LaBats opinion there
are enough French women in France
to take the place OF men, indus
trially, and to carry on special war
work. For American girls to go
to France in numbers. would mean
a strain both on transportation and
feeding facilities.
II the American women will re-
place men taken by the army. if they
will keep the home fires burning
against the return of their men
from war and keep up their own
battle front of unbroken cheerful
ness, then. said the lieutenant.

HUNS ARE At ODESSA
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.
Britains far eastern possessions.
Every European capital is tonight
agog with rumor, whisper and gos-
sip. Even Berlin and Vienna are
mystified. The Pan-German news
papers and the expansionist Aus
trian journals are printing columns
of speculatory boasts, but it is clear
from their vagueness that outside
of the central. army command and
a few of the highest ministers, the
two Kaisers. the Sultan and the
Bulgarian Czar, the Teuton plans
are unknown.
Those who have throughout be-
lieved the whole advertisement of
a gigantic western drive has been
a big bluff. designed to distract
entente attention from the eastern
and far eastern spheres, find strong
support for their theory in the news
that Odessa has virtually fallen,
But this latest and most momentous
phase Of the world war. the Teuton
penetration in the direction of asia,
has not been devoid of advertising
methods. such as marked the con-
centratlon in the west. On March

boast about the direct free route via
Russia to Persia and Afghanistan. "

Again experts profess to see in these
methods concerted Teuton effort to
bring about peace by -egotiation.
Through hints at the Handwriting on
the wall as Berlin journals boast
fully call the menace to Britain's far
eastern domains. the Kaiser Is be-
lieved to be trying TO "scare England
into negotiated peace which would
allow him to keep in the east what
he has conquered.
