Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


 WASHINGTON. Sept. 30.-The drawing of odd numbers for the thir- teen million draft registrants enrolled September 12 started today by Presi- dent Wilson
 Blindfolded, the president groped into the great glass lottery bowl and drew out one of 1I,000 capsules. It contained a slip numbered 322, thus giving to men holding that serial num- Der first place in their respective class es, after registrants classified under previous registrations. The number was low enough to touch the list of every local draft board in the country except one or two of the very smallest.
 Vice President Draws Second
 Vive President Marshall drew the second number and was followed by sixteen other notsbles who had been invited to participate. Officers and enlisted men Of the army, assisted by corps of tellers. then settled down to the task of emptying the bowl. Two thousand numbers had been drawn and recorded before o'clock. indicating that probably S6 hours will be required to complete the work. The drafting continued almost without interruption through the night.
 Only the first one hundred numbers were flashed to the country by tele- graph. Because of impracticability of telegraphing all of the 1000 the press has been asked to refrain from send ing more than 100 numbers. The con- plete master lists will be mailed as soon as the drawing is over to- district draft boards throughout the country to be made public by them.
 Mrs. Wilson With President ir1tnroStn6 crowd t0 witness the opening ceremony but the interest was rather in the participation than in the drawing itself for the classification system which determines | the status of the registrants has made the order number relatively unim- l portant.
 The president with Mrs. Wilson reached the caucus room just before noon. All was in readiness for the drawing. including battery of cam eras that reached across the room di- rectlv before the bowl. This bowl, the one used in the original draft lottery had been brought from it's place at 1n- dependence Hall, Philadelphia for the occasion.

WASHINGTON. Sept 3O.-The un- qualified exploitation of Bulgaria, rrcat as the effect is certain to be on Inc whole course of the war. did not serve today to distract the attention of army officials for a moment from tho vital moves being made in the great game on the western front.
 The outstanding event of the day was tho swift forward rush of the Bel rian and British forces in Flanders. Observers here again saw more than hint of weakening morale in the Ger man ranks. due probably to the fact that poorer troops had been assigned Co this sector of the front which long had been quiet. There was plain evil dence also that the enemy was taken completely by surprise.

 ABOUT BULGARIA
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3o.-Althoush deeply gratified that Bulgaria has signed an armistice which must be fol- lowed by her elimination from the war. American officials have carefully re- trained from exerting direct influence in this momentous event. Since the United States never has declared war on Bulgaria, the government has not felt at liberty to make any suggestions to it's o-belligerents at this stage. which is regarded as purely military.
 It is believed however, that in the final adjustment of the important po- litical questions involved in the condi- tions to be imposed upon Bulgaria at the conclusion of the world war. the United States will be invited to discuss this subject with the entente allies at the peace council.
 It was stated today that no instruc- tions had been given to any American diplomatic representative in the Bal kans to extend the good offices of the United States to either Bulgaria or the Allies

 WASHINGTON, Sept. 5O.-Although President Wilson in a personal ad- dress today to the senate asked for passage of the woman suffrage fed eral amendment resolution as a vital war measure, the senate again failed to reach a vote. Leaders generally hoped for a final roll call tomorrow, but the outcome admittedly was in doubt.
 Under the weight of the presidents influence, advocates of the resolution were hopeful tonight of mastering the necessary two-thirds majority, but leading opponents were insistent that there would be no defection from their ranks.
 Strictly Democratic Policy
 Unexpectedly intervening in the sen ate fight, the president went to the capitol at o'clock to tell the senators why he regarded favorable action on the resolution necessary. Approval of the resolution, the president said, was | necessary if America is to lead the world to democracy for it will be ] judged by its acts.
 Tt is my duty to win the war" said the president, and to ask you to re- move every obstacle that stands in the way of winning it. l | tell you plainly that this measure | which I urge upon you is vital to the l winning of the war and to the energies alike, of preparation and of battle. And not to the winning of the war only. It is vital to the right solution | of a great problem which we must settle, and settle immediately. when l the war is over.

Two Votes Are Lacking

Arter the president address the senate resumed debate, while leaders recanvassed to determine the effect or the presidents intervention. Cham pions of the resolution said they could safely count on 62 of the senate's 96 votes. or two less than the requisite two-thirds majority. Opposition lead CTS declared that despite the presi- dents action none of the 3i members heretofore classed as opposed to the resolution had given any indication ci voting for it. With nine senators ab- sent, and paired-siX for and three against the resolution-the senate was said to stand 56 to 3l. respectively with a change of two senators neces- sary to carry the amendment. In spite of this fact, Chairman Jones of the suffrage committee planned to press for a final vote.
 Before the president left the Capitol today attack on the resolution from the democratic side began. Senator Underwood of Alabama told the senate that the resolutions adoption could no' affect the result of the war becaus, the war probably would be over before the proposed constitutional amend ment would become effective.
 Senators Say Not War Measure
 Senator Phelan of California, demo- crat. referred to the presidents actior as "a compliment to the senate de- claring /the executive had answered the question of Senator Benet of Soutf Carolina. as to whether the resolution was a war measure. Senator Phelar called upon the senate to respond tC the presidents appeal. while Senator: Smith of South Carolina and Beck ham of Kentucky. both democrats, in sisted that the resolution was not ; war measure.
 The senate is expected to close earll tomorrow as only few senators haV' indicated a desire to speak. Tho, include Senator Martin of Virginia democrat. wh is reported not to hav' disclosed his position on the resolution but who has been counted by opposi tino leaders as among their forces Senate leaders hope to reach the flna roll call before adjournment.
