MAKES PEACE PLEA TO ITALY
Catholic Press Agency Says Emperor
of Austria Has Made Offer-U. S.
Sees Trickery IN Move.

Stockholm, May 1.-The Catholic
International Press agency announces
that Emperor Charles is making q
fresh offer, appealing to Italy to ac-
cept it in behalf of her own inter-
eStS.
Washington, May Although it has
been predicted frequently that if the
present German campaign should fail
peace offensive" would be inaugurated
by the central powers, there has been
no previous intimatiOn that new
move of this nature was being made.
Officials here regard the report that
Emperor Charles is about to offer
separate peace to Italy with. the same
sentiments they repeatedly have ex-
pressed toward other peace offers. AL
though without any information other
than that contained in Stockholm
dispatch, they freely express the
opinion that the chief purpose of such
an offer was to create discOrd among
the Italians. to weaken their resistance
and at the same time attempt to quiet
unrest among the Austrian people.

With the American Army in France
April 29.-The enemy laid down q
heavy barrage in front of the Ameri
can trenches in the Toul sector al
three a'clock in the morning, the bonn
bardment lasting an hour.
After ar interval of silence he re-
peated the performance at five o'clock
and half an hour later the German in.
fantry started for the American lines
SO intense was the American counter
attack that the enemy was repulsed
without getting close enough to be en-
gagged by the American infantry.
The Germans have been stripping
the bodies of dead French soldiers in
other sectors and wearing these
clothes. have come over at the point
where the French and American lines
join.
This method of. attack was used
during the attack on the Americans al
Agreement forest two weeks ago. Or
that occasion they spoke French and
said they had come to assist the Amer.
leans, but the ruse was discovered and
they were driven off.

SENATE BILL ASKS
ARMY Of 100000
Senator Hoke Smith Introduces
Measure.
LARGEST DRAFT TO BE MADE
War Department Preparing to Issue
Call in May for 100000 for the
National Arny-To Fill
Cantonments.
LARGEST DRAFT TO BE MADE

Washington, May Measures to
add millions of men to the American
army were introduced in the senate on
Monday. Senator HOke Smith of
Georgia introduced resolution call
ing upon the military affairs commit
tee to prepare bill for an army of
100000 Senator Reed of Missouri
Senator Poindexter introduced bill
directing the secretary Of war to call
100000 to the coIOrs.
To Gail 100000 Men.
The largest drafts yet summoned to
the cOlors since the initial call which
organized the National army will be
made by the war department almost
Immediately. The first call will affect
the May contingent ordered out. The
department made it plain in its week
ly review that it intended increasing
the number of men called into service
at once.
If the plans now considered are car
ried cut, as believed absolutely nee
essary, the call for May will total 300,-
600 men, while the call for June Will
reach very nearly 100000.
Fill All Cantonments.
Army officers refused to discuss
their intentions in advance of official
action by Secretary Baker and Pro
vOst Marshal General Crowder They
privately admitted, however, that the
figures mentioned above were approx
imately correct. Quotas after May
and June will be reduced to fit the
cantOnment and camp limitations 1t
is hoped, however, to get as large Il
percentage as possible of the men who
will be called this year into service
at once, so that they can be sent over
seas to complete their training before
next winter.
Ask Army of 100000.
1t is no longer secret that the
estimates now in hand will raise
the total army strength to 100000
fighting men. 1t is equally well I'M
derStOOd that even greater expansion
will be required before the close of the
fiscal year.
1t is made plain by all army Off
Gals that Americas imperative duty
will be to provide the replacement
units for the French front.
