Three distinct explosions in ai c many buildings, one after the fire once e virtually had been brought undar con- t trol, led to the general belief that en- c emv agents were at work. Mayoi ^ Mayo practically placed the city undei f military law by turning the situation ( over to naval officers, and some 2.5QC * marines and bluejackets from nearby < naval stations assisted the police and T home guards in maintaining order and j preventing vandalism. r Naval patrols rounded up suspicious x persons throughout the afternoon, while five men were arrested as suspects.

That iieans the nation's fighting is to be lone by young men without families ' Impendent upon their labor for sup- J ;ort and unskilled in necessary indus ^ rial or agricultural work. Pro vest Marshal General Crowior .nncuuecs the new policy in an exhaustive report upon the operation of he selective draft law submitted to Secretary Baker and sent to Congress. ] le says Class 1 should provide men ] or all military needs of the country, . :nd to accomplish that object urges miendment of, the draft law so as ic ^ provide that all men who have reach- ^ id their 21st birthdays since June 5, 917, shall be required to register for j ilassification. Also, in the interest >f fair distribution of the military bur- ' len, he proposes that the quotas of tates or districts be determined iereafter on the basis of number of nen in Class 1 and not upon popula* ion. Available figures indicate, the re- j >ort says, that there are 1.000,000 1 >hysically and otherwise qualified men inder the present regulation who will >e found in Class 1 when all quesionnaires have been returned and the ilassification period ends February 15. i ro this the extension of registration! o men turning 21 since June 5 of last j ' ^ear and thereafter will add 700,000! iffective men a year. Class 1 comprises: * Single men without dependent rela- 1 ives, married men who have habitual-; ' y failed to support their families, who 1 tre dependent upon wives for support | 1 >r not usefully engaged, and whose! . . , , 1 i amines are supported dv incomes .* ndependent of th?ir labor; unskilled! ! arm laborers, unskilled industrial la- i ; >orers, registrants by or in respect of i vhom no deferred classification is ilaimed or made, registrants who fail 0 submit questionnaire and in respect I 1 >f whom no deferred classification is j ilaimed or and all registrants' lot included iu any other division of j ' he schedule. i Narrowed down under the analysis i >f the first dralj; made in the report,; he plan places upon unattached single j nen and married men with indepen-J 1 i ? wirtrtf a# a t*t/^4 LCIlt LLt UOL Vi.

Realizing the seriousness of the sit-: ( Lation, the German and Austrian em>eror8 have conferred at length with heir chiefs or stairs, ana ine ixermuu nd Austro-Hungarian foreign minis-: er who attended the peace negotia-j , ions at Brest-Litovsk, have been sent I >ack there post haste, probably for the lurpose of attempting to moderate the | ! ltuation.

House and arrangements already have been made for the United States to carry on its part' of the compact.

That quick arnrlr fn <rottinc tVio Amor-i/^r) armv tn the front is most vital is indicated by a statement of Major General Mauric? j chief director of military operations at J the British war office. General Mau- jJtt rice says it is probable that with their I heavy reinforcements, drawn from the eastern to the western front, the Ger- M mans shortly will make a strong of- n fensive against the British and French armies and that the enemy may be expected to make some gains. 0 ALLIES TO SUPPLY LACK OF ARMS AND EQUIPMENT Washington.?An engagement by the United States to send a great army against the Germans in time to offset the defection of Prussia was disclosed through the publication by Secretary Lansing of a review of the work of the Americas, mission which recently participated in the inter-allied war con- fl ference at Paris. American fighting men are to cross the Atlantic as rapidly as they can ba mustered and trained. France and Great Britain on their part undertake not only to join in providing ships to carry them hut to see that any deficiencies in arms ana equipment are made up on the other side. SEPARATE PEACE WITH GERMANY NOT PROBABLE Petrograd.?(By the Associated ^ Press.)?The changes of a separate peace between Russia and the central 9 powers being effected seem remote, because of what are regarded as Ger- J tnany's unreasonable demands. Leoa Jm Trotzky, the bolsheviki foreign miniiter, and his associates take the st&nt that the Baltic nrovincea ar? in ra&i [ty under, military pressure while they continue to be occupied by Germany, md that their votes with respect t# peace must be ignored, as now these provinces are virtually German dependencies, the loyal Russians having fled. The Russian delegation upon its return from Brest-Litovsk laid before the council of commissioners at Petro?rad Germany's demands, which carts=d amazement and the declaration that 4 the council was not favorable to acceptance.
