FRENCH YOUTHS OF 1919
ARMY CLASS CALLED
TO ENTER TRAINING

Paris, April l6.-The 1910 con-
tingent of the French army youths
OF l9 years. is just going to the bar
racks TO begin training. Although
called out 4 year before the usual
time, these young men are in better
condition physically than any OF
their predecessors,
They are starting out in as high
spirits as the army did in August,
1914 shouting from the car windows
that they will beat the Germans.
The scenes around the railroad
stations in the last two days have
been more like the time OF mobiliza-
ton than any which have been Wit
messed since, contributing to wave
OF optimism which seems to have re-
placed the anxiety which was felt in
the early days of the great German
drive.

CZERN|N "SASSES
AUSTRIAN RULER
HAS SHARP EXCHANGE OF
OPINIONS"-COUNT TO
ENTER ARMY.

London, April l6.-Count Ger
min has decided to enter the army
after retiring from the foreign pory-
folio, the Copenhagen correspond
ent OF the Exchange Telegraph
Company cables. He will command
a brigade on the Italian front.
The correspondent also says the
count had an interview of half an
hour yesterday with Emperor
Charles and that a sharp exchange
Of opinions took place.
The entire press OF Vienna, dis
patch from that city reports, is join
ing in a chorus OF praise for Count
Czernin. The newspapers refer to
the fact that he has concluded peace
with Russia and is preparing to do
so with Rumania. The opinion is
generally expressed that the count
some day will return to Office.
The Fremdenblatt says that Count
Czernin has enhanced Austria S
prestige throughout the world in q
remarkable manner. The Reich
Post remarks that his only possible
successor is some very strong man.
The Weiner Tageblatt insists there
must be no deviation from the
counts foreign policy, adding it is
self-evident that his successor must
enjoy the confidence of the people.

ties, and the public must wait for a
daily ration of half a teacupful.
Wholesale complaints of the quail
ity OF the food being supplied at the
public kitchens throughout Ger
many appear in the newspapers. The
director OF public kitchens, in re-
ply to these attacks, issues the fol-
lowing statement:
with the continuance of the war,
the quality of the materials we re-
ceive becomes ever poorer, and the
choice more limited. We are COM
PEELED to take what is offered US or
go without, Complaints OF defect
i've quality are simply ignored, and
II we insist upon receiving a regular
supply we run the risk OF being en-
tirely cut off, The fat quota al
lotted us grows ever smaller, spices
are now scarcely obtainable, and the
substitute spices have a bad flavor.
The vegetable supply is now limited
to kohlrabi and turnips.'
A pessimistic article on the potato
situation by a member of the Prus-
sian house of deputies says that the
&C, cage under potatoes has decreas-
ed by one-hfth as compared with the
peacetime figure. Not only is the
acreage less he says, but the de-
mand is greater, and a crop double
that OF peacetime would not fully
suffice"

MARKET REPORTS
N. Y. MARKET EXCITED

New York, April l6.-There was
renewed excitement and a further
sensational break in prices at the
opening OF the cotton market today.
Liyerpoor cables reported the full
maximum break of 100 points per-
mtted for the day in the market
there before the local opening with
sellers at low prices. and there was
further active Liverpool selling
around the local ring as well as con-
tinued general liquidation.
The opening was 100 to 1l3
points lower on old crop positions
with May selling at 27.95c and July
at H.40c during the call.
Later deliveries opened at a de-
cline of 81 to 66 points, with Octo-
Der selling at 26c and December at
26.45c during the first few minutes.
No fresh bearish feature was in
effect, but sentiment was extremely
nervous and unsettled and liuuida-
ton was probably stimulated by re-
ports that the break in futures had
checked demand for both spot cot
ton and goods.
The suspension of local -four
broker was announced, but it was
considered of little or no influence
on the market.

GLOOMY VIEW AMONG
HUNS REGARDING FOOD
Official Promises Are Not Taken
With Confidence.

Amsterdam, March 27.-(Corres-

A gloomy view of the food situa-
ton in Germany was outlined by
DR.. Won Bretterich, the Bavarian
minister of the interior, in a fore
cast which has appeared in the Ber-
lin newspapers. The public was
told that mot only is there no
chance OF the potato ration being
increased, but we must think our
selves lucky if it is maintained at
its present level" The Bavarian
minister said he hoped the bread
ration might not have to be reduced
hnd that the meat ration may be
kept at its present height, but there
WAS little confidence in the tone OF
this assertion.

on which many hopes were based a
few weeks ago were not yet on the
market in any considerable quanti-

bearish effect today on corn. The
general rains were said to have been
OF great benefit in preparing the soil.
Unfayorabl war developments tend
ed also, according to some authon-
ties, to carry the market down grade.
Opening prices, which ranged from
lisa lac lower, with May Sl.27 and
July Sl.49@l.4o IA, were followed
by a sharp additional break. espc-
cially in the July delivery.
Oats, like corn, showed weakness
on account Of bearish weather and
war adyices. The market lacked
support. After opening Ia to 3-4
off, with May "a to 81 l-2c. prices
continued to sag.
Provisions were depressed by the
liberal increase of lard supplies dur
ing the first half OF April. Besides.
hogs and grain afforded no stimulus
to buyers.
