300 COWBOYS CAUSE
LEE EMBARRASSMENT
More Answer Call Than Asked for;
Accommodations Short.

Petersburg, Va, June 11.-There are
800 men at Camp Lee whose position
may require special action on the
part Of the War Department before
they will know where they are at.
Several weeks ago the War Depart
ment sent word to various draft
boards to recruit men for a veterinary
school to be established at Camp
Lee. The order called for 1,e00 men.
Men came from all parts. princi-
pally from the cattle country of the
great North and Southwest. The re-
suit is a motley gathering Of men
dressed In the garb of the plains,
at the camp.
When Adjutant Sturgess, in charge
OF this new school, called the roll
yesterday, he found 800 more men
than accommodation is provided for
When called before the officer these
800 men admitted they had not been
called for service. but had paid their
own expenses to accompany their pals
to the range. Efforts to eliminate
them by means of physical examina-
tions failed. These men from the
plains. many of whom admitted they
had spent their days and slept with
the clouds for covering, qualified in
every respect fPom the physical
standpoint Now Adjutant Sturgess
is in a quandary. He will appeal to
the War Department for a solution.

TN JEFFERSON,
DANIELS SAYS
His Philosophy Gives Direc,
ton Even in This War,
Speaker Shows.

Charlottesville, Va, June 11.-"In the
philosophy of Jefferson, there is light
and direction for every change and
chance in human experience" said
Secretary Josephus Daniels this after
noon in addressing the graduating
class Of the University of Virginia.
His understanding Of human aspira-
tions and his many-sided sympathies
embraced all ranges of thought, COM
passed all systems Of government,
constituted him the counsellor Of men
seeking the best In every domain of
life, and makes him today as much tie
brother OF lovers of liberty rs he was
! when he loved America and France
into lasting friendship.
TT h the glory of this university.
born in the brain OF Jefferson, that
this mission has ever been. As eN-
pressed by its founder, for here we
are not afraid Of the truth wherever
1t may lead, nor to tolerate any error
so long as reason Is left free to
, combat it
Painting jefferson as a lover OF
peace, the Secretary of the Navy
said:
NO man has lived who worshipped
| more sincerely at the shrines OF
peace than Jefferson, and yet he
wrote the document that has furn-
isned the shibboleths OF every fight
er for freedom for a century and a
=, half. 7 abhor war and view IL as
| the greatest scouyge Of mankind he
wrote to Elbridge Gerry. in 1877,
That sentiment, iterated and re-
iterated during his life, was his
passion.
"wbat Jenerson asserted as es-
sential when q country Is at war
has been attested to in our day by
President Wilson. who recently
said that one year of war had ce-
mented US together as a nation more
I than q century Of peace.
In what is our confidence OF
victory today? 1t is found in two
! utterances OF Jefferson as timely to-
| day as when uttered. Writing to
Gen Shoe. he said: Whenever an
appeal to force shall take place,
feel a perfect confidence that the
energy and enterprise displayed by
my fellows citizens in the pursuits
of peace will be equally eminent in
those of war;
He appreciated that q country
without a large military force would
make errors and would require time
for mobilization OF its full strength.
for he wrote in 1872 to Duane: Tho
seeds of genius which na:uro sows
with even hand through every age
and country. and which Only need
soil and season to germinate, will de-
velop themselves among our military
men,
"Reverses came in tina. war. but
the seeds of genius gerIninated in
y N l.. i -
Lake Champlain, though not till after
military defeats on land had left our
capital in ashes. Already these seeds
have brought forth fruit in thIa way,

modified American power to throw

Losses Of Germans
Now Enormous.
BY ERNEST p. ORR.

(Statf Correspondent of j. y. 81
Paris. June 1.-THE losses t;lc Ger
mans are suffering in the present
drive are described by correspondents
at the front as almost fantastic. The
Germans are living up to their bcas'
that they would waste 100000 men 10
reach Paris.
Constantly fresh divisions. called up
from all parts OF the Western front,
are thrown into ths battle. The Teu-
ton advance is most serious below
Ribecourt, where the Germans are
exchanging mounds of dead for bits
of French soil.
The Paris military critics believe the
German aim is vast encirclement Of
the forests of Compeigne and VIllers-
Cotterets. and to reach the Cre:l SEN
lis-Meaux line in order to bclhbard
Paris.
The enemy's masses are densest be-
tween Bethencourt and VigEemont,
convergng in the direction of Com.
reigne. The French press emphasizes
that the Amiens offensive was
launched on a 60-mile front, The later
drive toward the Marine on a ID-n'ile
a 20-miIe front.
Marcel Hutin. the military critic,
writes:
1.-TWO fresh divisions of Prussian
guards and two Of Crown Prince
Rupprecht's Bavarian divisions have
had to be withdrawn because of the
heavy losses"
The Echo de Paris says:
THE Germans have thrown their
whole strength into the present struE-
gle. counting upon ending the war by
the end of the month. We must not
be surprised IL the enemy now also
throws his naval strength into the
struggle simultaneously witt a great
attack on the British front"
