More Go to the Front.

Detroit, Mich., May 4. —Forty more members of the Michigan naval reserve left Tuesday evening for Norfolk, that number having been called for by the navy department in addition to the 225 already waiting at the Norfolk navy yard to be enlisted for service in manning the auxiliary cruiser Yosemite. It is expected that the Michigan men will go aboard their ship about Thursday. Nearly all the members of the Michigan naval militia have now gone to the front.
