Republican 4. p. Leased Wlre1

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-Represen- tatives of the American Constitution al League, of which Charles s. Fair childs, secretary of the treasury during President Clevelands admin istration, is president, today ap- peared before the house woman suf frage committee and urged that &C., tion on the proposed suffrage con- stitutional amendment be deferred until after the war.
 Through Everett r. Wheeler of New York the league argued that pas sage Of the amendment by congress at this time and a campaign later for its ratification would divert the attention of American women from the necessity of putting forth every energy to help win the war.
 Dr. Lucien Howe, of Buffalo a member of the league and fellow of the Royal Academy of Medicine. argued that women were not quaIi- fled to vote. He also presented statistics tending to show that the high rate of infant mortality made 1t necessary for the women to keen their places in the home instead of giving their attention to politics.
 The speakers at today's hearings are not connected with the National Association Opposed to Woman suf- rage, but represent, they said, an organization composed of both suf- fragists and anti suffragists. favor ing action by the individual states

to join with the present political par ties in the formation of a new pro- sressive party. The aims of the pro posed organization, as set forth in Senor Palavacini's manifesto, are 10 unite politicians and people for the democratization of Mexican institu- tions and to secure increased immi- grafton and foreign capital to develop the country, giving both individual and capital full guarantees of safety and protection. with the Understanding that both be subject to Mexican laws.
 The new party. he asserts, should work for the democratization of the army. of industry and of the govern ment, and should be anti bureaucratic but not in continual opposition to the established government. Another pur- pose would be so to unite opposing fac tions in support of an established pro- gressive government, that revolutions would be impossible after elections, or any change in the government.
 The manifesto also declares for re- ligious liberty and respect for all creeds.

The newly landed divisions of former national guardsmen began active work in hand grenade training, their instruc- tion going on despite the snow which today covered the ground in some plac- es to a depth of foot. Other former guardsmen who had been found to be good marksmen were picked for snip ing work and began learning the finer points of that practice
 A division of regular army men which already has been at the front resumed today the carrying out of maneuvers during which airplanes CO., operated with the artillery. This di- vision is rapidly nearing the point where it will be classed as expert in this co o-operation and the aerial ob- servers are becoming equally efficient Both 75's and guns of larger calibres are being used.

He knew of the threat of a revolution in Russia long before the revolution actually broke out and counseled the emperor, so far as foreign diplomat could do without making himself dis tinctly offensive. of the danger which hovered over his head and advised him to give Russia a real. parlia- mentary government.
 But the empress, who was th- real power, reinforced by Rasputil., the mystic monk, and other fanatics and by the bureaucracy, nullified Buchanan's advice until it was too late. After the crush came Buchanan supported the attempts to help the democratic regime, but where the most solid and able Russian patriots had failed. the little group of friendly foreigr, diplomats in Petrograd, who attempted to aid Russia in pilotins her way through the chaos could not be expected to succeed.
