.DESERTERS WILL
 NEVER BE ABLE
 TO RETURN HOME
LIST IS PLACED IN HANDS OF DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, ON ORDER OF PROVOST MARSHAL GENERAL CROWDER; STOP RE- TURN OF THOSE WHO FLED

Cochise county's deserters from the national army will find that every ave nue of egress into the land which they fled to escape military service is effectually closed to them. In com. pliance with instructions from Provost Marshal General Crowder, the local draft board yesterday placed a list of all men from this county who have earned this onerous distinction in the hands of the department of justice for this purpose.
 The compilation of the list shows there are many former residents of this county who now are exiles from their native land from this cause. Most are Mexican registrants Never again will these men be permitted to return to this country, it is declared. If they should elude the vigilance of the bor- der officials they will have but small chance of escaping the system which has been built up for the express pur- pose of experimenting those who fled during the nations peril.
 Classified as deserters are those who failed to register; those who reg istered and neglected or refused to respond to calls to appear before the local board, and those who disappear ed after qualifying for service. These men who failed to return question: naries or neglected to appear for their physical examinations on dates speci- fled are also defined as deserters in the instructions of the provost mar shal and be dealt with accordingly.
 Many are already regretting their rash move. They are finding that even the inhabitants of the favorite haven of refuge, Mexico, are disposed to treat them with scorn and con tempt. In letter to a friend here, a member of the stacker" colony at Chihuahua whose name is oppressed in deference to his family, gives an idea of the conditions there.
 Appealing for assistance, he writes: If you have any old clothes to spare, please send them to me. Most any thing will do. Shoes cost S25 per pair. Hats, coats, pants, etc, are just as high and am in rags and have to go hungry lots of times. Work is awful scarce and wages are poor. Anything you can do for me will be appreci- ated."

FRENCH ARMY IN LORRAINE
Troops Under Marshal Petain Are
Given Warm Welcome by
Residents of Metz.

Metz, Nov. 22-The historic event
accomplished when Marshal Petain.
commander in chief of the French
armies, made his entry into Metz. the
great stronghold of Lorraine and the
pivot. of Germany's effort to crush
France, may be said more than any
other happening to consecrate the vic
tory of the allies in this war. The oc-
casion, in which the French comman-
der figured for the first time as mar
shall of France, also gave rise to one
of the most picturesque demonstra-
tions ever carried out by the people of
Lorraine
From early in, the morning all the
roads leading TO Metz were crowded
with Lorrainers on their way TO the
city to raise their voices there for Mar
shall Petain and for France. People
unaccustomed to any tongue other
than the German for years began many
days ago brushing up their knowledge
of French In preparation for this oc-
casion, and although the majority of
the population undoubtedly has a per-
feet acquaintance with no other tongue
than the German, little of that lam
guage was heard III the streets.

German newspapers report that the
united workers and soldiers councils
have proclaimed Oldenburg, Oestfries-
land, Bremen, Hamburg and Schles-
wig Holstein republic. The capital
will be at Hamburg.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, ac-
cording to the semiofficial Wolff
agency, has telegraphed the Berlin
government asserting categorically
that the German army, because of the
hard terms of the armistice and of
the internal situation, is in no posi-
ton to renew fighting. The German
military leader added that even oper-
,ations against the French army alone
would be impossible.
Berlin. Nov. 25.-The movement to
withdraw from Germany and create a
separate republic is gaining ground
rapidly in the Rhineland, according to
reports from Cologne to the Socialist
Vorwaerts. The movement finds
strong support on the part of the cler-
lcais, as result of the Pruss.an gov
ernment's announcement of it's inten-
ton to disestablish the church.
Recent events in Berlin have also
apparently increased the fears of the
Rhlnelanders regarding boIshevism.

for Greater Kiel has adopted reso-
luton declaring that all authority be
invested in the council until the
fruits of the revolution can be safe

ellis. The bourgeois class is to be ex-
Guided.
Berlin, crushed, broken and dispir-
tied by privation, has accepted defeat
with almost incredible apathy.
