WASHINGTON, Keb.2 7. Congress was a.kod Wednesday by Sc'y I!aker for a deficiency appropriation of JS2S,"27,200 to pay for tlu subsistence of the army c vers: as during the remainder of the present fiscal year. The law recently passed by congress repealing lö billiun dollars of war appropriations, cancelled 5 J.f'D.400.000 of the K. 431. 000, 000 appropriation earned for the quartermaster corps. r;nd the secretary t xilaiwt. d that this 'a rye reduction caused the deficit. Obligations of larpe .amounts have been de eloped, the existence of which was not known at the time of the repe.ilin- of the bill," Mr. P.aker wrote "There are extraordinary and un-anticipated demands for supplies and funds required for the maintenance of the large forces overseas and for the settlement of obligations in Knpland, France and ' isewhere abroad."

WASHINGTON. Feb. 27. Mai

Gen. Crowcier, judfce advocate general of the army, appearing before the senate military committee Wed- . nesday at a resumption of hearings on the court martial situation, said ! i!:at all imprisonment sentences Im- ', posed on men of the n,-my during ' the war and found upon reviewto! be too severe would be mitigated

through the president's power of re mission.

Gen. Crowder said that within 60 '

lays the 3,000 sentences imposed ' since the beginning of hostilities

I would be reviewed by r; special j board headed by l:rlg. Gen. Samuel IT. Ansell. vho was acth.g jadgo

! advocate general during the war and

whose testimony as to severity of court martial sentences led the committee to extend its investigation. i Steps toward iaitii,ating the sen-' tences weie beg 'n, Gen. Crowder said, prior to the investigation by the senate committeee. Practically all cf tht? men sentenced to dishonorable discharge and imprisonment, he said, already have had the dishonorable discharge revoked. He.

I added that 1,200 men sentenced to

long terms at Leavenworth, Kanbad been honorably restored to duty

in the last ear. Confidential Order.

Chairman Chamberlain read into the record of the hearing a confidential order on conscientious objectors, which he said was sent to all camp commanders in the United .tate by Adjt. Gen. Learned at the direction of Hec'y Ilaker. The order i as placed in the record follown: "The secretary of war djrects that' you be instructed to segregate the conscientious objectors in their divt- j sions and to place them under super- j vision of instructors, who shall be ! especially selected v .h a view to in- j silling that these rr."r will be nan- '

died with tact and consideration and that their questions will be answered fully and freely. "With respect to their attitude of objecting to military service, these

j men are not o be treated as violating military laws, thereby subjecting themselves to the penalties of the ar

ticles of war, but their' attitude in this respect will be Quietly ignored and they will be treated with kindly consideration. "Attention in this connection is invited to .a case where a number of conscientious objectors in one of outdivisions, when treated in this manner, renounced their original objections to military service and voluntarily offered to give their best efforts to the service of the United States as soldiers. "It is desired that after the procedure above indicated shall have been followed for a sufficient length of time to afford un opportunity to judge the results from it, a report of the action taken and the results obtained under these instruction is to be submitted to the war department by each division commander. As a result of the consideration of these reports, further instructions will be issued by the secretary of war as to th. policy to be observed, in future in the case of conscientious objectors. "Under no circumstances are the instructions contained in the foregoing to be given to the newspapers."

IUY AWNINGS IN SO ITH HKND. We believe the merchants of South Hend wish to I.now whom they are buying from. An awning manufacturer from an other state, representing himself as from i?outh Uend. is canvassing the trade and such ordeis as he receives are sent out of town to be made up. We believe, knowing this, that ' the merchants of this city, will continue to patronize home industries. öur awnings are made in outh Uend by South Pend labor. We support South Iend Institutions and believe we should be given the preference over outside concerns who hive no Interests horo whatsoever. SOUTH BEND AWNING CO. -iooi-27
