International News Service: LONDON, Aus. .The Russian situation is more critical today than at any previous time, following tho resipnation of Premier-War Minister Kerensky. Advices from Petrograd today emphasiezd the seriousness of the double military and political crisis. Kerensky was prevailed upon to remain in the. cabinet, hut it is tottering and the belief is widespread that its days rvre numbered. Already attempts are being made to form a new government, but it was pointed out today that Germany may havetimed her new peace movement to coincide with the chaotic state of affairs that has developed in Russia. With the Russian armies in peril and I anarchy rite in Petrograd ami elsewhere, the kaiser is neneveci to nae seized upon this as an opportune moment to again launch a campaign for separate peace with Russia. When the German government was outmaneuvered at Stockholm it withdrew its patronage from the internationalist peace conference at Stockholm. b:t there were evidences today that the kaiser may again extend paternal recognition to the meeting if there is any chance of its helping Germany's peace campaign.

i na fQ) 3a iro j st BIGGEST FIGHT IN HJSTORY OF U. S. 1 3 Age Limit For Generals Placed by Pershing Causes Undercurrent of Protest in Washington. International News Service: WASHINGTON. Aug. 4. Tlie biggest army tipht in the history of the service impends today. It is between the younger element and the older. Refore it finally is settled there is a distinct likelihood that congress may be injected into the situation. The fight comes over the juestion of promotion to general rank. On Pres't Wilson's desk today is a long list of colonels recommended to be made brigadier generals. Tlie list was compiled by Maj. (Jen. Tasker H. Rlis.--, acting chief of the general staff. The average ape of the men who are thus suggested for promotion, and incidentally for leading the heavy lighting on the battle line in France, is above 31 years of age. This in tlie face of a recommendation by Maj. Gen. Pershing, in supreme command of the American forces in France, that the ape limit for brigadier generals be lied at about 4 3. llepresent f),i s Ihh1. Gen. Bliss represents the old school in the army. lie is a strong believer in the system of promotion by seniority. It is in accordance with this belief that he lias recommended the ranking colonels for promotions. In ti e last list of promotions a number of colonels were overlooked by Gen. Scott because he feared "that they might be too old for the hard service thaf. would be found in France. It is admitted that some of these obi men have been marked now for promotion by Gen. Rliss. It is understood here that Gen. Pershing's recommendation as made to the war department, Jcclared that modern war was no work for an old man. He pointed out that while these men undoubtedly were fully equipped from a scientific viewpoint for dire:ting fighting, they rjid not have the vitality and vim to stay with their troops in the violent work that tnrst ho faced in fighting tlie Germans. In making this recommendation Gen. Pershing had tlie advice of Field Marshal Jolfre of tho French army and of Gen. Haig of the British army. They pointed out that under modern conditions of warfare, the brigadier gei erals were compelled to pet personally into th game and to stay with their men !n everything that, was met. Old men cannot stand the pace, Pershing w a" told, and this is the message that he sent back to this country. si;cci:sMn to zimmi:um.v. International News Sera-ice: THE TIAGUi:. Aug. 4.
