With the American troops landed

rSses and United States sailors al
rs4dy in that region. it was held here
today that the proposed BOlsheviki
thrust in the north will be futile.
Germany has done her utmost to
stir the Bolsheviki to make a drive
in northern Russia. even getting a
STka4y, providing for such an effort.
Or ]he other hand. there have been
Indications that the allies expected to
forestall such a movement by taking
the initiative and moving southwark.
The number or nature of the new
troops is not revealed, but ii is as
sumed that they came from English
or French camps and are well sea-
soned. Press dispatches indicate that
they are from the northern tier of
States, and that many OF them can
speak Russian, thus combining the
military with the propaganda often
sfve.

CLOTHING FRAUD IN ONE CITY.
Federal Officials Believe II Is Confined

Washington, Feb. 23.-Army quarter
master corps officials think the alleged
frauds unearthed in New York in con
nection with preparation of uniform
cloth were confined to that city.
The alleged thefts upon which the in
dictments returned were based are be-
lieved to have occurred in November and
December, 1917. Reports by war depart
ment investigators stated that large
amounts of uniform cloth disappeared
between the time the rolls of cloth were
dispatched TO sponging houses and the
receipt of the rolls after this process had
been completed While a report on the
loss sustained as result of these pee
ulations has not been made to the quar-
termaster general, officials say the po-
lice estimate is greatly exaggerated, as
the entire lot of cloth handled in the pc
Rod investigated would not be worth

A Monarchy Now Threatens
Distracted Russia, the
Bolshevik Believes

Washington, Feb. 23.--Thc American
general staff is watching the new Ger
man sweep into Russia with little more
than academic interest, quite convinced
that Russia is no longer a military fac
tor TO be considered and that the situa-
ton has little bearing, at the present, at
least, on the battle fronts.
Large captures OF military stores bear
little relation TO the equipment of troops
on the Italian or west fronts, officers
here say. as the guns and rifles captured
can be of use only as long as the ammn'
milton supply captured with them holds
out.
Observers, both here and in Russia, it
is understood, are satisfied that as the
German drive continues, II will meet
with more resistance.
The government will receive detailed
report from Brigsdier-General Judson,
who has just returned from duty at the
American embassy in Petrograd.
The turn of events in Russia, in the
view here, swings upon the object of the
German high command in renewing oper-
atoms The taking of Petrograd, if con-
ceded, might be desirable for its effect
in Germany and Austria.

DECREASED PRODUCTION.
Of Bituminous Coal in the Face of Great
ly Increased Need.

Washington, Feb. 23.-Bituminous Goa
production in January was at the low
est since September, 1916. In making
public the figures yesterday, the geologi-
cal survey blames the slump entirely
on railroad congestion. The January
output was 42,727,000 tons, an average
of $4,000 tons daily.
I'm the face of a greater need than
ever before" said the surveys state
ment, "the country entered the second
month of the year, some five million
tons behind the mark set in January,
1917"
Beehive coke production in January
increased 1000 tons a day over the De
cember output, which was the lowest
in a year The total January output
was 2,339,000 tons. By-product coke
production fell off sharply.
