 CENDARMES AGAIN

Sonora mas decided to revive the cd fiscll gendsTme system employed for preventing smuggling along the porler in the days of Diaz. Mexican t'ousul Leievier announced yesterday morning. General KosterlitZky eleven years ago was head of these guards n Sonora, with his headquarters in II HsrmcsillO.
 Headquarters for the new guard VII be in the same place, which is ne1r the center of the Sonora bound STy on the north and therefore most cJas Snient General Carlos Plank.

It will relieve the line riders and sol diers now used for this purpose. It probably means that smuggling things in and out of Sonora will be muhc more difficult in the future.

 White and Freeman entered tke ring on tip toes and started slugging tactics from the sounding of the first gong. White opened up the affair when he landed a stiff right to the local mans jaw. following this with a left to the face Then Freeman opened up. He had the advantage of reach and of weight. and inside a few moments had pounded White about the ring until he became groggy. The soldier was game. though. and came lack in the second round plugging and swinging. Several times he fell to the. floor when his groggy. wild punches went into the air. and finally he went to the mat for the count fol- lowin a battering-ram blow on the point of the jaw and jarring punch to the kidneys.
 The wrestling match was between McAlister and Stank-rg. and was one of the best features of the program. McAllister secured two of the three falls. the other going to tie. In The second fall Stanberg went to the mat in four minutes twenty seconds. and in the third fall. while in the third he lasted nine minutes twenty-three sec- onds. The match was scientific and fast, and although Stanberg was con siderably. outweighed. he put up q game and consistent battle.

Washington. June THE army
general s,aff Is working on plans for

strength. Creation of more than
twenty infantry divisions is contem-
plated, it was learned today. This
mean addition of about seven hun
dred thousand to the army exclusive
of those called for special purposes.
The new divisions will be added to
the regular army and to the national
army.
It is likely that the regular cavalry
division will be disbanded and its regi-
ments scattered on Mexican border
patrol. while twelve national army
cavalry regiments will serve dis
The four hundred thousand men
called in the June draft will go thru
the depot brigades; most of them
going to replacement units, but the
majority wifi receive training in the
depot brigades after which they will
be formed into the new divisions.
The period of training has been
shortened. BY March, 1919, it is esti-
mated all except replacement units
will have been sent to the firing line.
With the draft working smoothly

predict that shipping abroad will be

RAY HALL APPEAL
Uniform Seems to Have No At
traction for Musician.
Put Back in Glass 1 He Fights
for Exemption.

The blare of the bugle when the
siren call of the uniform evidently
fail to have any attraction for Ray
Hall, a well-known Topeka musician.
He has appealed from the decision
of the local board and is asking that
the first district appeal board grant
him deferred classification on the
grounds that he contributes to the
support of his mother and his child.
A few days ago it was announced
that Hall had been recla ssified by
local board No. l and placed in class
1, subject to immediate call to the
colors. Hardly was the ink dry on the
assification report when Hall put
in an appearance at the city hall and
announced his appeal to the district
board.
He Claims Dependents.
1t is reported that Halls mother
is a part owner of the Kellam dance
hall-which place is doing a big busi-
ness just at present Hall is in
charge of the orchestra at Kellam
Hall. In his appeal he says he is
contributing about $40 or $50 a month
to the support of his mother. He also
says that he is contributing $40 a
month to the support of his child.
under orders of the court.
One of the members of the appeal
board said this morning that there
have been a good many inquiries as
to the chance Hall has of being given
deferred classification.

Berne, June 7.-Austria Is about to
undergo an experience similar to that
of Russia, when the Gar was de-
throned. Innumerable attempts have
been made against military works and
esta ablishments.
In the Adriatic region, Slavs have
destroyed mines in the ports and
canals of Dalmatia and on the Cro-
tian coast. In Bosnia, Hungarian
patrols have been massacred and rail-
ways seriously damaged.
The food situation is very serious
and the government has posted de-
crees in the region from Gratz to the
sea, declaring that revolt, desertion or
completely in military transgressions
are punishable by hanging or shoot
ing.
Profiteering There, Too
The burgomasters of Munich,
Crefeld and Dessau have been i'm
prisoned for profiteering. At Munich
the burgomaster narrowly escaped
1ynching. A mob, which charged he
had filled his residence with govern
ment food, stormed the house but he
had fled. They seized the food and
sold it at huge profits.
The food situation in some parts of
Germany also is growing worse, it is
reported. At Cologne, a mob at
tackled an unguarded food train, COM
pletely emptying it.

SINK SO PER CENT!
Allied Navies Have Made Rec.
ord Against U-Boats.
More Than Half Constructed
Have Been Destroyed.

Washington, June 7.-Senator Swan
son, acting chairman of the naval
committee. after conference with
navy heads today declared that the
destroyed sixty per cent of all Ger
man submarines constructed and that
they have cut shipping losses in half.
The German submarines recently
operating off the Atlantic coast, Sena-
tor Swanson said, are believed to have
been driven from the coast and also
from the main American shipping
routes. None of the American craft
stationed abroad, Senator Swanson
said, has been or will be withdrawn
to this side because of the German
raid. Senator Swanson said his in
formation was obtained from highest
navy department authorities
The indications of the last few
days" he said, "are that the German
submarines that came over have been
driven at present from the coast and
from the main lines of travel of Amer
lean vessels.
Navy Isn't Worried.
THE navy department is not dis
turbed and is doing everything pos
sible and I am confident no German
submarines will be able to do any
serious damage on this side. Move
ment of troops and food to Europe
will continue uninterruptedly."
Declaring German submarine at
tacks here had been expected and
that frequent warnings that the
undersea boats might come over were
given mariners. Senator Swanson ex-
planned that at the outbreak of the
war it was decided best to send the
main American naval force to CO.
operate with the allies abroad.
THE result of that policy" he
added. "is that the loss of mercha nj
vessels has been reduced by half and
about sixty per cent of all German
submarines that have been constructed
and commissioned have been de-
stroyed. There is no question OF
this"
