A statement by the public in- formation committee says this moy be_done by Saturday. Reports current today that tions already had been made prob- ably aross from the fact that many boards have numbered their registra- tion cards and in some cases, proba- bly. already are publishing the lists as or selec- required by regulations. The last éistrict will have to complete this work, however, before selecticn can begin, as the administration is de- termined to leave no loophole for jug- gling of the serial numbers. It is for that reason thai public posting of the lists and the Ming of duplicate copies with the provost marsal-zeneral has been required in advance of selection. The care with which the numbering of the registration cards !s being car- ried out make it certain that the drawing will be based entirely upon the numbers. No names will be in- volved in the actual process of selec- tion which will closely approximate, it is understood, the jury wheel sys- tem.

RUSSIANS WILL COMPLETE - ESTABLISHMENT OF REPUBLIC Opinion of C. E. Russell, Member of American Mission. Petrograd, July 5—The Russian people will fulfill their task of estab- lishing a republic, in the opinion of Charles Edward Russell, a member of the American mission to Russia. Mr. Russell today issued the following statement on the observations he has made here since his arrival some weeks ago. “I venture to appea! to my fellow democrats in the United States and eat Britain for a more svmpathetic attitude toward the struzgling demo- cracy of Russia. I appeal to editors not to print wild-eyed stories of im- pending ruin and chaos and to news- paper read not to believe such stories if printed. “There is no anarchy here. There is only a lmited amount of disord The people of Russia under the most tryimg conditions In story have miven zn example of dignity and self- restraint. “It is well to face the facts frank- Iv. but it is also well to look beyond surface conditions to the true b: of Russian development. Every phase of the present situation is a logical and normal outcome of natural causes. The substance is sound and hopeful if cnly other democracies =zive help whoie-heartedly instead of standing bp_to prophecy destruction. “These people know their job and will do it. I suggest it is about time to do_away with all ‘criticism and zive them a chance.” STRIKE OF ADAMS EXPRESS TRUCKMEN AT HARTFORD.

The Bulletin’s Circulation in Norwich is Double That of Any Other Paper, and its Total Circulation is the Largest in Connecticut in Proportion to the City’s Population Cabled Para_graphs Agarchists Are Still Active in Rus Petrograd, July 5—Despite the inci- dent of last Monday when _Cossack troosp raided anarchist headquarters and arrested a large number of the oocupants who are now under guard in the Winter Palace small bands of anarchists still continue attempts to inflame the soldiers against the tem- porary government and to persuade the regiments in Petrograd to march agahwt Marinsky Palace and forcibly remove the representatives of the gov- ernment. ;i OPPOSITION DEVELOPING IN CHINA TO RETURN TO MONARCHY Many Militarists Are Adhering to the Republican Ranks. ‘Washington, July 5.—Belief here that the monarchical coup @' etat in China is destined to failure was increased today by each item of news both offi- cial and unofficial which came to the attention of the state department. Minister Reinsch reported that at least some of the northern military leaders who are feit to hold the coun- try’s destiny in their hands have taken the fleld in opposition to General Chang Hsun’s attempt to destroy re- publicanism in China. News of the creation of an emer- gency republican government at Nan- king, headed by some of the strongest méh’ of China,.with reports of active military preparations to besiege the monarchists in Peking, was received with keen interest. ¥ The adhesion of many militarists to the republican ranks is interpreted here as showing that Chang far over- played his hand and that the greatest gamble of his adventurous life will not Succeed. Nevertheless, fear is felt that he will make an active resistance with his considerable military forces and that an attack by the republicans and possibly serious damage to Peking may follow. Chang probably couid maintain himself for some time be- hind the Peking walls, especially as artillery is lacking in China. A com- promise is rendered doubtful by execu- tions, particularly that of Prince Pu Lun, who, though a Manchu and a cousin of the restored emperor, has been an ardent republican and pro- gressive. The action of Tuan Chi Jui in ac- cepting his former post as premier under_instructions from President Li from his asylum in the Japanese em- bassy at Peking, has strengthened faith in “the ultimate success of the republic. ; “Tuan has been one of the republic’s strongest men, with influence among the military party. On the other hand, the imprisonment by Chang of Wang Shih Chen, formerly republican mem- ber of war and appointed to a simi- lar post in the monarchical cabinet, confirmed the belief existing here that Chang had appointed many men to office in his cabinet who had neither accepted nér been consulted. The im- perialists had clajmed the support of Feng Gwo Chang, who is in actuality acting president of the republic. Chang Hsun has taken control of the telegraph wires from Peking. Dr. V. K. Wellington Koo, the Chinese minis- ter, called at the state department to- day, but had no information farther than the pro-monarchical reports sent out by Chang’s leade: LABOR UNIONS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RIOTS Denial Made by Frank Morrison, Sec- retary of A. F. of L. Washir n, July 5—Charges that labor un were responsible for the East St ¥ $uis race riots drew an em- phatic d 1 today from Frank Mor- rison, secretary of the ican Fed- eration of Labor, who, absence of President Gompers, iss a for- mal statement on the subject Mr. Morrison made public gram received today from Olander, secretary-treasurer of INinois 'Federation of Labor, w has been forwarded as the American Federation of Labor’s reply to a mes sage from the Boston branch of the ued a - tele- Equal Rights League. The telegram follows “Press despatches allege Nezro Equal Rights League of Boston has telegraphed to you charzing trade unionists with responsibility for East St. Louis riots. Any such charge is viciously untrue. Tt wns the East St Louis Central Labor Council, havinz negroes in membership, that request- ed the investigations by the state council of defense following the d orders in May. That investigzation showed that southern negroes had been misled by false advertisements and unscrupulous employment agents to come to East St. Louis in such numbers that they could not securs either work or decent living quarters. “The effect was to make acute the exploitations of labor, both nesro and white, and to seriously disarrange so- ~ial as well as economic conditions and to arouse bitterness on all sides.” DISGRUNTLED LABOR LEADERS TO FIGHT CONSCRIPTION They Are Led by Jacob Panken, a Socialist Lawyer, New York. New York, July 5—Twenty-five la- bor leaders, led by Jacob Panken, a socialist lawyer, as the orgzanizers of the Conference for the Maintenance of Workers Rights and Standards, at a meeting today prepared plans for fighting conscription and what they termed the “conservation attitude” of Samuel ~ Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor. Mr. Gompers denounced the organ- ization at a meeting of the Central Federated Union last week, saying It was designated to supplant the activ- ities of the American Federation of Labor. Ieaders of the movement to- day were inclined to admit thq charge but defended their organization on the ground that Mr. Gompers had “be- trayed labor's rights and smiled on capital.” Panken announced that the confer- ence would extend its ramifications in- to every industrial community in the country and added that funds would not be lacking to fight attempts at conscription of men who believed their constitutional rights were being violated. DEATH OF OLD-TIME MiSSISSIPPT RIVER PILOT on the Robert E. Lee During Race With the Natchez.

Smith of Water- bury, who also died at the Archer home, stricken from the records.

States Attornev Alcorn objected and the mo- tion was denfed. “Undoubtedly Poisoning.” Everett L. Wells of Hartford was the witness called by the prose- cution.
