May Infuse to Appeal. The peculiar phases of the case include the possibility of a refusal of either side to appeal from an ad-er.-e decision of the lower court. The suit as it now stands is against the prosecution of Vanderburgh county, and any decision or ruling made in the Vanderburgh superior lourt is efleetive roily within the bounds of Vanderburgh county. If the court should rule finally in favor .f the li-iuor interests in the rase, and enjoin the prosecutor, and he should refuse to take an appeal, the plaintiffs would have won in the cue county only. The law would become effektive in all the other . 1 ounties of the state. unless the brewery interests instituted suits in eac h of them, and final de( ision in the county court at Kvansville favors the law, it will become effective in all counties of the state, exept other suits should, be filed against it in other countos and sustained, or unless the breweries appealed and should ifet a favorable decision from the supreme court before A rail 1'.

"The c.Timpions of peace in this country." he declared, "have been doing the dirty work f the kaiser.

The inhabitants of Petrograd await corning events with an outward calm, according to the latest dispatches received here, and continue to pursue their ordinary business life seemingly unconcerned over the great interests at stake. The Daily Mail's Petrograd correspondent, in a dispatch sent last Thursday, repeats a statement that the majority would welcome th. arrival of the Germans, fearing un outbreak of uncontrolled anarchism with riot and murder. The bulic of the population, the correspondent says, is ti.-cd of revolution, tired of hunger and disorder and tired of the uncertainty perpetually overhanging them, declaring that they are experiencing all of the disadvantages of the tzar's regime without any of its advantages. The London morning papers for the most tart are without news from their Petrograd correspondents and the only i: formation of current dato received here consists of official pronouncements. The Petrograd correspondent of P.etiter's, limited, sends an official statement that the council of the peoples' commissaries lias appointed a special general staff and has issued a decree reiterating its warning that martial law must be used mercilessly to repress "criminal attacks," and extirpate the counter-revolutionary. Measures, it is officially declared. have lieon taken for the registration and distribution of foodstuffs and the mobilization of the entire population for defense work. The special s,taff will appropriate all property lequired for defensive purposes. I xt inordinary Session. An extraordinary session of th-3 central executive committee of soldiers' and workmen's delegates was held on Friday evening. M. Sverdloff presided and read a statement reviewing the situation in which he said that it was now clear that the Germans would not reply to the Smolny institute's last appeal, or if they did, their answer would b? completely unacceptable. He asked the committee to adopt a resolution expressing confidence in the people's commissaries and approving their measures aiming at peace. The resolution passed with only six dissenting votes. In the last two days the Germans have not met with a single case of resistance, a Petrograd dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph company says. Evacuation of the port of Reval is proceeding slowly, the soldiers declining to assist. The headquarters of the Russian western army has been moved to Smolensk, -0 miles southwest of Moscow. The change was marie in such haste that the staff lost touch with the various annies. ri:.( i: ti.kms sriwiTTi:i at rkiist-litovsk session A--.. i;ite.I I're. Service: PETROGRAD. Wednesday. Feb.

'Vi' , ':" A Scene From "The Shophertl OP NEW DRAFT Total of 74,206 Selectives Will Start For Camps Within Next Five Days. Intornati .n.il News Service; WASHINGTON, Feb. 2Z. Movement of 74,106 selective service men 66,023 white and S.lSf, colored to various camps, began todiy and will continue for live days. Early reports received by Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder indicated that the entrainment of the men is proceeding as smoothly as well oiled machinery, elaborate arrangements for train service having been made in advance by the various adjutant generals of the states whoso men have been called to the colors. The white men will be distributcdamong the following camps: Devons, 6,.r7ä; Fpton, 7,r.0'; rj-, 7.f00 : Meade, O.O'.oO; Lee, ft, 000; Grant, .",000; Taylor, 6,000; Dodge, 1 5.000; FuiiEton, I'.iJOO; Travis. 7 , r 5 s . Colored men will be sent to these camps: Jackson, 2, f. SS; Gordon, 2. son; pike, 2.O00. On March 4, various states will send 0.471 white men to Camp Greenleif at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., and 4,226 to Fort Riley. About 70.000 Remain. This makes a total of S4.2S2 men to bo sent to camps during these two periods. Odicials in the provost marshal general's oflice estimate that when all these men get into camp there will still remain about 70,000 white and colored men to be inducted into the national army under the lirst draft. While no date lias been set for sending them to camp the impression prevails in official circles that an order to entrain them will be issued within the next three weeks in order to clear up the first draft and pave the way for the second draft.
