BITTER DESPAIR !
/" SWEEPS AUSTRIA
Believed That Not Even Great
Victory Can Stem Tide OF
Internal Trouble

Va WASHINGTON. April 2l-(Associa-
ted Pr"ss) Dispatches received by
the state department from neutral
countries make it clear that q great
feeling of despair is pprmeating Aus.
trim and hopes for clearing away, Of
political difficulties based upon an ulti.
mate military triumph are now rapidly
fading.
Heavy clouds, Indicating a coming
internal storm Of severest violence, are
gathering over Bohemia among the
among whom there are NUT

sistence upon the adoption of the peace
principles enunciated by President Will

At Vienna and Mt Budapest, state the
official reports, it is now becoming
recognized that not even q decisive

front will bring internal relief to the

Submarine Failnre
!, In Berlin, according to a Swiss de.
spatch, there is also the greatest dis
satisfaction in the rcichstag, particu-
larly over the submarine situation.
Despite the recent elaborate explana-
tions by Admiral Won Cape1e, the min.
lister of marine, that the submarines
were growing in effectiveness and the
power of Great Britain upon the sea
was being materially weakened, the
claim is being widely expressed that
the submarine campain has been a
failure and that tho victory promised
through the unrestricted use Of this
branch of the navy is growing more
md more distant.
Deputies from each Of the several
parties. in the reichstag are criticiz.
ng the German admiralty for the fail
ure Of the submarines and bitter disap.
pointment at results are being express
ed; Won Capelle is being kept on the
defensive and is being obliged to add
explanation to explanation.
The Cologne Gazette, quoted in de-
spRteh from Amsterdam, says that the
Czechs of the Southern SlAv league
have announced their intention of con.
tinuing in their campaign for an i'm.

Urge People To Fight
CONSUMPTION

LONDON, April 81 - ASSOCIATED
Press -Irish parliamentarians included
in the main faction headed by John
Dillon and the Roman Catholic heir
archy of Ireland have united in the
common cause of opposing any effort to
enforce in South Ireland the conscrip,
ton sections of the Man Power Bill,
irrespective of the terms of the Home
Rule Bill to be presented in the house
of commons as a government measure
at any day.
Yesterday, in Dublin, the Irish party
members met in conference with Dillon
and decided to stay in Ireland during
the crisis they believe has been reached
in the relations between Ireland tn,
rest Of the United Kingdom. They will
stay on the ground to resist conscrip,
tion.
bcrs pledged himself to use all the
political power of the party to defy
the English efforts to force involuntary
service upon the people Of Ireland.
Catholics United
The Roman Catholic hierarchy has de
clared its support Of the anti-conscri rip.
tonlsts and the Sim Fein movement,
even though leaders among the latter
have openly announced that Germany
is their ally and that Germany's cause
is now the cause Of Free Ireland. The
bishops counsel only passive resistance
to the law, however. and announce their
opposition to acts Il violence.
Reports on this decision of the bish
ops cabled from Dublin, point out how
easily this passive resistance may be
turned into active resistance through
the almost certain action Of hotheads
pledge to resist CONSUMPTION by the
most effective means at their disposal
will be circulated today among the
Irish Roman Catholic and it is be.
lieved that ninetenths Of the Irish
Catholics will pledge themselves nc,

>AdWces From Washington Say
Call For Hawaii's Quota Def
initeIy Decided Upon

Word came from Washington yes
terday that the war department is
planning to call out q quota Of draft
men from Hawaii for the National
Army The figures of the draft are
now all in the provost marshal gen
erals office, having been forwarded a
short time ago by Capt. H. Gooding
Field, selective draft officer for Ha.
waii.
Captain Field is in possession of no
information from Washington as to
what the draft call will be but when.
ever it comes the number Of men ask ed
for will be furnished without delay, as
every man in Glass l, has been physi.
cally examined and qualified for serv.
ice, and the address Of each Of the
1888 men is correctly recorded.
1t is understood that the action Of
the war department in planning to
call a quota from the Islands is in
response to the patriotic desires of the
people. 1t is known that Delegate Ka-
lanianaole has been persistent in his
efforts to have Hawaii included in the
present call for quotas from the States.
Furthermore, it is understood at
Washington that the Delegate and
other territorial officials, have demand
ed that the credit for volunteer en-
Iistments in the army already made
from Hawaii be waived, and not he
considered any part of the man power
which Hawaii can still furnish.
Glass One Charted
Captain Field s figures of Class |
men have been charted so that the
provost marshal can tell at a glance
their classification by nationalities, oc-
"upations, ages and even those that
have had military training. The lat
ter refers particularly to the National
Guard of Hawaii, the draft-age mem
bers of which had a separate ques.
tionnaire, under which about 1900 men
, were listed for military service. This
questionable was handled entirely
through local board No. | of Honolulu,
of which G. II. Cooke, is chairman.
The serial numbers for the national
guard commence at 50Ol, so there will
be no mixup with other serial figures
II the Territory.
Volunteers Considered
The provost marshal general 5 Office
has had under consideration the vol
lnteer enlistments already made from
Hawaii and was inclined to consider
this as a part of the quota to be. In
Ill probability this phase will he
waived and Hawaii will furnish a full
quota under the present call.
81 have had absolutely no informa
ton upon the subject of what Hawaii
may be expected to furnish in the wav
Of men for the National Army said
Captain Field yesterday. 81 know this,
that we are prepared to meet the call
at any moment whether it comes by
cable or mail, but it will certainly come
by CABLE
1t is now believed that Hawaii 5
national guardsmen who have been reg
istered under the selective draft pro
visions, will form a part of the Class
l lists and these will be called to the
colors just as are the civilian draftees
