TEUTON FIASCO WITH RUSSIANS FORCES CRISIS

New Alignment of Political Parties Follows Collapse of Negotiations at Brest Litovsk. International N'ewn Service: WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. A new political crisis has enveloped (Itrmany. Prussian militarism seenm to have ovprrf-arliel itself in the Russian negotiations. As a resu't, a new alignment of political parties is being forced, advices tu diplomatic and administration of!K'iaN said totlay. The mitronip still is in doubt although it generally is a cepted that the present control will continue, at least for a time, the moderate Pan-Germanlsts taking the place, of the moderate socialists in t h e majority combination. Kiiipha.-!! Tx Much, derma n otlicialdom apparently emphasized the Russian situation too much, officials say. They lr.l the German people to believe that a separate peace was certain and that this would be preliminary only to the commencing of general peace negotiations. Breaking off of the Mi est Litovsk negotiations, as a re--ult. has come as a mo-t unpleasant surprise to th Orman people and especially to the socialist members of the reichstag. This is certain to be added to when the text of Lloyd George's speech to the Iiboritcs roaches Germany which will be a slow proce.: as the imperial government can be depended on to let only its own ersinn of the British premier's statements become public. Torgot Icav. 1 Policy. Interest in the new situation in Germany does not come from any belief here that it may hasten the mtiating of a rival pence movement. The attitude of the entente diplomats here, and of the officials who nave Pres't Wilson's entire oonlideuoe. is to forget peace. Germany all Germany without regard to party is not yet ready for peace. All Germans, The pacifists included, believe that Germany has won the war. While that view is retained dliciaks said today, it would be utterly useless to suggest a peace exi tpt along German lines, something which naturally ha wrr even been thought of here. The interest, however, (enters in the new political division which is on.-idered certain to follow the Russian developments. That the liberals will sharply criticize the military party is certain. The latter, to maintain their present control of the government, will have to take radical steps. The result. ith ials say. may he the anticipated military dictatorship. S'lul Sjrc!i to KikLi.

At tho same time assurances were Ki en that the Japanese army will not be mobilized 'rashly." However.

Japan could thus fulfill her obligations to the allies without making any hostile move toward Russia, it was point 1 out.

ESE RAIL AMEiiEIT Indiana Senator Would Forestall Government Ownership After the War. ' International New. Fervlre: WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. Sen. Ellison D. Smith of Xouth Carolina, was chosen by the senate democratic steering committee this afternoon to pilot the administration railroad program through congress. The steerinp committee voted to endorse him for chairman of the interstate commerce committee to succeed the late Sen. Newlands of Nevada. Sen. Pomerene of Ohio, who was a candidate for the position, may demand a caucus vote on the election, but indications are the steering committee's decision will stand. International News Service: WASHINGTON. Jan. 7. Prtst Wilson's railroad program struck its first snag today, on. Watson of Indiana, offered an amendment to the Sims-Smith railroad bill specifically terminating the government control of the railroad six months after the proclamation of peace. The amendment was crafted, it is understood, at an informal conference of conservative republicans last nisht. These republicans are unalterably opposed to government ownership. They took the position that the clause in the Sims-Smith bill relating to control of the railroads after the war poes too far in the direction of permanent government ownership. This action on the part of the conservative republicans has split the party wide open along the lines of the 1912 upheaval. Sen. Hiram Johnson of California. and Sen. I Cummins of Iowa, two of the most ! powerful of the progressive republi can leader?, have come out openly for permanent government ownership.

American Nurses Volunteer For Hazardous Duties Within Eight Miles of Battle Front

Present Hospital Capacity, Which Can be Doubled on Short Notice, Will Care For 20 Percent of Men. Internationa'. New Servier: WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Jan. 7. American women will be right behind the American troops when the latter entei the trenches. The chief surgeon of the army announced today that women nurses will be installed in the evacuating hospitals eight miles in the rear of the actual fighting lines, where they will risk death from German shells and bombs. The women are v olunteering for this dangerous duty, a number requesting assignments to "honor posts." They are even anxbjus. to go up to the advanced dressing stations and the collecting hospitals, only four miles behind the firing line, but it is likely that these posts will be reserved for men. licM Care ;nar-.iiitoel. Very ir.iportant changes have been made in the medical end of the army, which is now composed of the most efficient surgeons and specialists in America. This guarantees to the soldiers the very best of care. To handle 20 percent o? an army of 1,000,0(0 men with facilities to double this capacity at the slightest notice. The American, specialists brought their entire staffs with them. For instance, Dr. George Schweinitz of Philadelphia, one of the best known eye specialists in America, brought a large staff with him. The treatment of men suffering from eye wounds would be commenced at the most advanced station where. If it is discovered that a patient has his Fight hopelessly impaired, instructors would begin immediate work upon him, the course continuing to the base hospitals. Blind instructors will make the trip homeward with such cases where work of reeducation will be taken up. Statistics of the British and French armies show that only one out of every J. 200 wounded men is blinded. Changrs in Treatment. The greatest changes in the treatment of abdominal wounds has been necessitate! since the SpanishAmerican war when only small bullets did rot force immediate operations. Abdominal wounds nowmade by jagged pieces of shell and shrapnel require immediate operations, although the statistics show that 00 percent of men sustaining such wounds recover. With so many specialists over here the soldiers are guaranteed better medical attention than they could get at home unless they were well to do. Among those who have arrived are: George Brever of New York. George Crele of Cleveland, O.: Harvey Cashing, a brain specialist of Boston; Frederick Washburn of Boston; Samuel Lloyd, C. L. Gibson and Charles Peck of New York; R. H. Hard of Philadelphia. F. A. Beslej- of Chicago. Angus Mclean and B. R. .hurley of Detroit. John Finney of Baltimore. F. T. Murphy of St. Lou s. M. Clinton of Buffalo. H. T. Miller of Pittsburgh. R. R. Grocers to Meet With Bakers at Request of Eby Duties of those dispensing food, and the general topic of food conservation, are to be discussed by a joint meeting of grocers and bakers of the entire county to be held at the Chamber of Commerce building Wednesday afternoon, called by County Feod Administrator A. F. Eby. "South Bend has been more careful in observing food conservation measures than have the fmalPr towns in the county," declared Mr. Eby. "In some of the smaller place?, wheatless and meatless days are not rtcogr.ized at all. either In the hemes or by restauatuers." "The meeting Wednesday will be a very important one." he went on. "In the lsteit bulletin from Dr. Baroanl. it is pointed out that the food shortage has already added at leost a year, and probably two. to the time the United States must continue in the ficht. The Italian Cf llapse ar.d the present Russian situation can be directly traced to shortage of food.'

O.: Edward ('lark of Indianapolis, Joseph Flynn of the Yale medical school and many others who gave up home practices netting them approximately :'..0,iiimi yearly t accept the p:iv of a major in the Fnited States army. lüuht Category's of Ca--.. e'me of the most important ( banges in the medical work is that th patient will be under the direct chars;!' of one of the biggest inodieal men of the luv from the time they are wounded in the trenche-: until they set Mit homeward by boat. The cases are being divided into eight categories: Head wounds, brain troubles, surgical, orthopedic. X-ray, venereal, medical and laboratory. Each department head will follow the cases nntil they are finally dispo.-ed of. Fifty per cent of th- death rale last w--k was due to pneumonia and other respiratory discuses v hich are proportionately decreasing as the men get more hardened. The mortality in the tirst arrived division is less than half that of th- !a-r units. (ld e'hex ks ."-iekness-.. Clear, freezing weather of the past week is checking the upward tendency of the sick list which has not yet reached five per nf. e'ases of social diseases have r.ot .vet reached more than lour per cent in 1,000. This is .a better record than the home army had and The chief surgeon is justly prul of it. The largest lrug order ev-r plae-d in Europe has just been sei t off to England for the American fop'e-. Britain also is furnishing a hospital train to accommodate M7 lyingdown patients. The seriously wounded and disabled men will immediately be sent back to the Cnited States r:. soon as they can travel. Although we have no hospital ships, transports will be fitted up as hospital ships accommodating from P"0 to 200 patients Only convalescents will be transported. Not a single man will be kept in Franco after he i unfitted for further ts'-r-vice. Here is the chief surgeon's adv :" to the troops here and at home on "how to keep well": "Keep your feet ns dry as possible. Wear plenty of warm clothing. Report cases of sickness immediately. Th armv will look out for the r"st."
