Fitting every occasion . dress as Needed. ‘Washington, April 3.psAdministration plans for raising an ‘army on the principle of universal lability to ser- vice, to be submitted to congress as the pending war resolutfon is adopted, are based on selective conscription of young men to be summoned to the colors as rapidly as they can be trained _an dofficered. A detailed scheme for the registration of eligibles has been worked out. After married men, others with de- pendents, those whose service is re- quired in industries have been ex- empted, others within the age limits fixed will be examined physically and those found fit will be selected, possi- bly by lot, until the first 500,000 to be trained are secured. It was made clear today that 500,000 is nowhere the limit needed, and that t is expected that more than 509,000 available will be found in the first classification. Others will be trained as rapidly as possible by officers from the regular army, national guard and officers’ reserve corps. Maximum and minimum age limits for the first call are fixed in the ad- winistration plan, but wiil not be made public until it is presented to con- gress. In recent discussions a mini- mum of eight years and a maximum of 23 cears have been mentioned. 3 ¥ eliminary military steps possible under existing laws were added today to those already taken. They included direction by Secretary Baker that the first class at the West Point military academy be graduated April 20, sup- plying 125 highly trained young offi- cers. . At the navy department it was an- nounced that steps have already been taken to insure close co-operation be- tween the American fleet and those of he entente allies when the necessary wthority has been granted. The American embassy at London has been in close touch with the British ad- miralty. Standardization of the munitions in- dustry will be one of the first direct steps taken under direction of the na- tional defense council. A continuous and adequate flow of weapogs and ymmunition of all kinds will in- sured. not only for the American forces,_but to the entente armies.

WE GIVE S&H GREEN TRADING STAMPS WE GIVE S&H MAYOR MITCHEL'S CHARGES AGAINST SENATOR WAGNER Did Not Intend to Infer He Was Dis- loyal to This Country. Albany, N. Y. April 3.—When Mayor John P. Mitchél of New York stated that the opposition of Senator Robert B. Wagner to the passage of the Mills Rockaway fortifications bill indicated that the senator was working more in the interests” of Germany than in the interests of the United States, he did rot intend to charge the legislator with consclous and intentional dislovalty to this country. This declaration was made by the mayor late today while under cross examination before the bar of the senate on charges of baving made a fzlse and malicious report con- cerning Senator Wagner in his legt: lative capacity. Friends of Senator Wagner inter- preted Mayor Mitchel's explanation as a vindication of the senator’s patri- otism. The senator’s friends pointed cut that the maypr's statement that he did not mean to accuse him of delid- erate disloyalty had removed from Mr. Mitchel’s comment on the senator's legislative conduct the principal cause for grievance. The hearing will be re- sumed tomorrow. FORTIFICATION CONSTRUCTION AT ROCKAWAY POINT.

So far, however, firms generally haVe indicated entire willingness to co-operate with the gov- ernment. The corridors of the war and navy departments were busy today and an air of suppressed excitement prevailed in all offices. Immediate preparations must be made to double or treble the clerical forces of both departments to meet the coming strain. New quar- ters must be found to house the new civil elements. Bulldings near the state. war and navy structure are be- ing looked over for this purpose. Only one big move in preparation for war remains to be made in the navy department. That is mobjlization of the naval militia and the various class- es of the naval reserve. The former will go on the re: ips of the line, filling out skeleton crews and making the ships ready for action. From the latter will come,the men for the coast patrol and submarine chaser services as well as additlonal men for line ships. . Probably 15,000 men could be added to the navy personnel at once by this mobilization. Tt bas been estimated that double that number wggld be re- quired for full patrol of th® Atlantic coast by motor boats. It seems prob- able that unless sufficient volunteers respond promptly, the universal service system may be invoked to fill up the navy’'s ranks.

I¢ * the| 0 PERSONS MISSING ) FROM TWO BRITISH SHIPS The Trevosse and the Alnwick Castle, Which Were Torpedoed With Warning. New York, April 3.—One hundred and ten persons, including two women and one baby, are missing from two British steamships, the Trevose and the Alnwick Castle, each tos without warning by German subma- rines. There were no Americans on either vessel. ‘Twenty-four survivors, six of them passengers, arrived nere today on the French steamship Venezia of the Fa- bre Line, which rescied them at sea after they had been adrift four days and four nights, during which five oth- er men died from exposure. Besides these five, two of the crew of the Tre- vose were killed by an_ explosion. The Trevose, a freighter, five of whose crew reached here on the Ven- ezia, was sunk on March 18 when twelve days out from Newcastle, Eng- land, with coal for Alexandria,. Egypt. George y, steward. of South: Shields, one of the survivors. said the boat captain sent a torpedo into the Trevose at 10.30 2. m. The explo- sion did not sink the ship immediate- ly and the surviving 25 men took to the boats. About a half hour later, Grey said, the submarine showed it- self and sent a crew to the Trevose, that disposed of the ship with a bomb. Ir their boats the crew drifted until night, when the Alnwick Castle ap. ‘They had been on this ves- sel only twelve hours when she was torpedoed by an unseen U-boat. The Alnwick Castle was going from Lon. don to Cape Town and carried 100 head of blooded catle for South Afri ca. Besides a crew of 100, she had five cabin and nine steerage passeng- ers. The Alnwick Castle was 200 miles at sea when disaster came at 6.30 a. m. The 159 persons aboard included the Trevose’s crew of 25 and among the Alnwick’s passengers were one Wwo- man and her three months old child. The othar woman on board was the.
