SHIP SAVES NAVY filters
Picked Up 35 Miles From Florida
Coast-HeIoJess For 10 Hours

An Atlantic Port, May 9.-With
their hydro-airplane adrift at sea and
in danger of sinking, Ensign Arthur
Laverents. naval aviator, and c. G.
Cotton, observer, were rescued by a
coastwise steamship thirty-five miles
off Mama, Fla, Monday, and arrived
here on the ship.
The men had been floating on the
plane eighteen hours without food or
water. An engine breakdown had
forced them to drop to the sea.
One pont0on of the plane sprung
a leak during the long hours riding
the waves. The craft would not have
stayed afioat more than half an hour
after the rescue the aviatorS said.
Sharks added to their peril.
The captain of the rescuing steam
ship said a heavy squall was coming
I'D when the aircraft was sighted.
High seas had begun to break over

Washington, May 10.-Senate action
on the house resolution proposing
submission to the states of an equal
suffrage amendment to the federal
constitution has been postponed in
definitely because a canvass of the
members showed that supporters of
the resolution number less than the
two-thirds necessary for it adoption.
This announcement was made by
Senator Jones, of New Mexico, chair
man of the senate woman suffrage

senate that the resolution will not be
called up as planned. He added that
formal notice of the indefinite post
ponement will be given in the senate
later.
Senator Jones said there is no in.

will be made to do so until there are

Steel Cooperation Makes Dea
With u. s.

Washington, May 1O.-The war de
partment, in conjunction with the
United States Steel corporation, will
construct gigantic ordnance plant
at point in the middle west, it was
announced.
The site has not been selected
!CannOn and prOjectiles of the larges
lcalibre will be manufactured at the
plant. The announcement follows:
The secretary of war hass entered
into an agreement with the United
States Steel corporation, by which
that corporation will undertake to
construct and equip for the govern
ment a modern ordnance plant upon
a site located in the interior of the
country, to he selected.
"A committee formed of officers of
the corporation and its subsidiary
companies, men fitted by education
and experience, will be in immediate
charge of the work These men will
receive no compensation for their
services. The plant is to be built,
equipped and operated at the expense
of the government by the United
States Steel corporation without pro-
fit. Cannon of the largest calibre
will be manufactured, as well as
heavy projectiles in large quantities.
"While the United States Steel cor

ers, are full of work and have always

AMERICAN SOLDIERS
AMBUSHED BY FOES
Night Patrol Silently Cut to
Pieces by Germans.

With the American Army in France,
Toul sector fell victim to a silent
enemy ambush.
The Germans evidently used bayo-
nets and the butts of their rifles.
The Americans went out early in
the evening and nothing further was
happened to cross the spot where the
others had been ambushed.
Not one shot was fired during the
encounter, as far as was known.
American heavy artillery was fired
for the first time in the sector north
west of Tout
After several weeks spent in prepar-
alton, the American artillerists, hav-
ing picked >out targets in the rear of
Montsen, reported that they We're
ready TO open fire a couple of days
ago, but for reasons not disclosed the
guns We're not fired until now.
About forty big shells We're sent
over MOntsen at the heavy German
batteries composed of 2O3's captured
from the Russians, which had been
fired for some time, especially at the
American battery positions.
Every day the Americans become
stronger. Apparently they are better
entrenched than the Germans, who are
being continually harrassed day and
night. Despite the enemy's heavy eX-
penditures in gas, he has obtained no
advantage in this sector, the Ameri-
cans disseminating this every move.
One of the American patrols en-
countere6 an enemy working party.
They shot the sentinel and rushed the
enemy, but later retired owing to the
superiority in numbers the Germans
had over them.

An Atlantic Port, May 10.-The

American war ship, with a shell which

Because of the fine work of the

stations.

succession at the nearest enemy, miss

So great was its force the craft was

Washington, May 10.--Since Secre

ures concerning the present size and
the approximate size a year hence
of the armed forces of the United
States
The American armies when the May

men. These statistics give:
Minimum number of our men now
In France, according to the statement
of Secretary Baker, 100000; number

22;1, coo.
OF these 1,225,000 are drafted The
remaining million is made up of the
national guard, regular army and spe-
rial troOps-all volunteers:
An army of two and ane-quarter
million men is respectable sized
force If they could all be gotten to
France by the end of this summer they
might we'll prove the deciding military
factor on the French front.
The war department plans to have
at least 100000 American soldiers in
France by July l.
The 100000 men now under arms
includes 100000 regular army, ma
fiOnal guard and special troops, and
100000 drafted men. OF the l,247, 900
drafted men called to the cOlorS SO
TAR. nearly, one million, it is seen, are
already in service. The remainder
will be in the camps and environments
before the end of this month.
There are 100000 men now in
class /. This class cannot possibly
be exhausted this year. None will be
called from the other classes until
next year This was learned at the
war department For this reason is
is unlikely this session of congress
will change the draft ages, either up
or down, despite the demands of mem
bers of the house military commit
tee.
Representative Kahn, Republican,
California and others want the ages
Increased from thirty to forty, and
are clamoring for immediate provis-
ion for an army of 100000, in line
with fromer President Taft's sugges
ton.
Under the present draft law, calcu-
lated from the number of remaining
registrants in Glass 1, it is probable
before the end of this year, the Unit
ed States will have under arms at
feast men, ana prrnups mere.
This is the basis on which the house
military committee is now making up
the army estimates.
One thing is certain, the United
States troops will be sent to France
as rapidly as possible,
Mr.. Bakers announcement sent q
thrill of encouragement through mill
tary circles which have been consid-
erably dis heartened ~ecause hitherto
nothing excepting alleged shortcOm-
jngs of the army received publicity.
