Ol'KLY CELEBRATED.
(Associated Pre •• Dispatch.)
' London, Nov, JS.—Bells rang la j
London and the provinces today for
.♦.he first since the war began In
commemoration of British victories
In France and Palestine.
It was the first sunshine of many
days and seemed to reflect in the
faces of thousands of civilians and
th« soldiers and sailors in the streets
their confidence that the clouds which
have been hanging over Europe for
more than three years were breaking.
One of the featu. „>s of the occasion
was the ringing of the bells of
Potersborough, which had been silent
for years.
In London, Liverpool and other
cities the flags of tlie allies con-
tributed impressively to the picture.
The scenes in the street? and around
the great cathedrals were not de-
mo strative, but appeared more like
those at Christmas.
In front of St. Paul's within whose
eaves thousands of plgVons have
found a homo for many generations,
great numbers of them were flying
over head and in many Instances
alighting on the broad pavement,
eating from the hnnds of persons In
the .rowd and even perching on the
Shoulders of children. Altogether It
■was a scene to make one forget war
for the moment and think of a world
at peace.

Aroused to the necessity of j
greater efforts if the nation's wooden j
fleet plans are not allowed to
draft dangerously, Southern lumber
manufacturers this week inaugu-
rated a speeding up program by
which it is hoped to increase the out-
put of ship timcbrs from 860,000 feet
to 2,000,000 feet a day. Mills which
had never before cut a stick of ship
timbers are overhauling machinery
and installing new equipment with a
v'ew to contributing their part to
the country's defense work. Many
of the larger plants will run night
and day until the government's re-
quirements have been fully met.
With the centralisation of all
lumber activities on shipbuilding
comes announcement by the South-
ern Pine Association that a general
may be attained and waste tlimi-j
nated.

secretary-manager of the .Southern

to win the war. For, in spite of the
fact that the submarine campaign
has been brought more nearly under
; control than some months, ago, the
1 submarines are now sinking ton-
jnage at the rate of 150,000 tons a
week, while America's production of

!a week. This disparity must be
'overcome.

Cypress manufacturers have of-

(A^socintetl DljpaKi1)
Washington, Nov. 23.—Arrival of
American troops in France has kept
pace with the expectation of the war
department, Secretary Baker said to-
night in the first statement has
ever auhorlzed in connection with the
progress being "nude in increasing
General Pershing's forces. Mr. Bakel
declined, however, to stale the number
of troops forwarded or to indicate
whether he anticipated delay from this
time. Movement of the forces, he said,
depended on two elements, the train-
ing and equipment «(the men and the
availability ,of shipa.
"As fast as they are ready, ships
and men will tie combined," the sec-
retary said, "as many American troops
are now overseas as we expected in the
beginning to havo overseas at this
time.'
Mr. Baker Indicated that an official
statement of the number of American
troops in France was not to be ex-
pecteiftit any time during the war. He
caused an inquiry to bo mado of the
military censor, Major General Me-
Intyre, however, which may result in
more liberal regulations as to publica-
tion of the designations of regiments,
bridages or companies which are en*
gaged in action on the front from time
to time. If there Is no sound military
reason for suppressing that informa-
tion, Mr. Baker said, he desired to give
it out.
The secretary's attention was called
to the fact that the British official
statement recently have named at least
by geographical designation the troops
used in various offensives. Apparent-
ly a new policy In this regard has been
adopted in London and the war de-
partment may do likewise.

San Francisco, C'al., Nov. £3.—Fur-
ther details of the intrigue that joined
German consular officials in Chicago,
other American cities and Pacific
ports, with Hindus and adventurers in
an Alleged conspiracy to foment revo-
lution against British rule in India,
wero revealed today iir tho United
States district court when Sukumar
Chatter]! took the stand again for the
government in the trial of thirty-four
men charged with conspiracy,
ChatterJI, a Braliaman native of
Bengal, shed light on a journey to
China that ne said he made in tho in-
terests of the conspiracy. In Manila,
he testified, he was given a letter
which had originated in the German
consular office there. This bore a
queer inscription which was to serve
as a means of Identifying tho man to
whom he was to deliver it in Amoy,
China.
Jodh Singh identified himself in
Amoy by showing a copy of the in-
scription, the witness testified and he
gave the letter to him. Jodh Singh
later told him the letter had beeni
safeto delivered to the German consul
at i*ioy, Chatterji testified.
A man by the name of Boehm ap-
peared to be active in the conspiracy
at Manila, Chatterji said, when this
man ran short of funds, he asked the
German consul at Manila to wire the
German consul at Chicago, for more
money, which, Chatterji said, was
promptly furnished.
