German Women in City Required to Register June 17-26 Enright Sets Dates and Sends Out Circulars of Instructions Must Bring 5 Photos Registrants Must Call Between June 27 and July 2 for Registration Cards Registration of German womenfolk in New York will begin on Juno 17 and last until Juno 26, Police Commissioner r.nright announced yesterday. Thou? sands of informative circulars were sent out by the department. All female subjects of Germany fourteen years old or moro are required to register, even though first naturalization papers I,ave been obtained. The registration hours will be from H a. m. to 10 p. m. daily. Commission! r Enright estimates that lho total registration will be about 40,000. He plans to make the formality as simple as possible.; for the regis? trants. They will be notified when they may cull at the police station in the precinct in which they live to obtain registra' ion blanks, which they may fill out at home. Signatures to the blanks must be witnessed at the police station, however. The circular sent out, in part, fol? lows : "You are required to furnish five un? mounted photographs of yourself (not four, as stated in registration affidavit), not larger than 3 by .5 inches in size, on thin paper, with light background. The photograph shall be of the shoul? ders and full face, without hat or other head covering. If able to write, all five photographs should be signed by you across the face of the photographs in such a manner as not to obscure the featuies. "You will be handed four blank forms of registration affidavits (not three, as stated in registration affi? davit), which you or your representa? tive must comspletoly fill out, with the exception of the blanks indicated to be i. led out by the registration officer, and these must bo produced by you per? sonally to the registration officer, and must be signed and sworn to by you in the presence of and before the. regis? tration officer, who will fill in your de? scription and supervise the affixing of your finger prints and the attaching of your photographs. If you cannot write you must make your mark in the sig? nature space, and affix your left thumb print in the space provided opposite the signature space. "You are hereby informed that after, you have registered you must again) present yourself between June 27 ancf July ... 1918, inclusive, before the reg istration officer who took your oath, to obtain your registration card, at which time you must sign your name or make ; your mark and place your left thumb j print in the presence of tho registra- | tion officer. When you appear for reg- j istration the officer at the station house ; will stamp one of your registration I affidavits, naming the date and time j you are to return and obtain your reg istrntion card." 50,000 Lose Homes In Fire at Stamboul !

Anti-Conscription Confer? ence Issues Statement on ! French's Proclamation c DUBLIN, June 7. A warning to Ire- ' ! land that Lord French's recruiting i proclamation does not meamthe with- I j drawal of conscription was made in a j I statement issued last night by the Ant i- I j Conscription Conference after a four- ? ? hour session at Mansion House. Tho I Lord Mayor of Lublin presided at the | , meeting, and John Dillon, Joseph Lev- i lin and other Nationalist leaders, as ! I well as representatives of labor and I the Sinn Fein, were present. The Lord Mayor of Dublin, it was ; announced, will proceed to the United i ! States when the attempt to conscript | ? Ireland is renewed. The imprisonment I j of the Sinn Feiners without trial is con- j I demned and tho Irish military admin 1 istrntion denounced. , The statement says nothing of the i I attitude of the conference toward the recruiting campaign. Its reference to the proclamation of Lord French fol- ! lows: "The conference takes note of the j ] latest proclamation from Field Marshal | French. In view, however, of its terms : we warn our countrymen against false . ? confidence that conscription is at an [ ; end. In the future, as hitherto, Irish- j | men must trust above all else their i own unbroken unity and unshakable ] purpose for safety against a renewal of ; ! the danger of conscription which the ! proclamation has only provisionally i postponed." In regard to the Lord Mayor's pro : posed visit to America, tho statement j ? says that the Lord Mayer "has patri- | I Otically promised to hold himself in readiness to take up the mission when I ever any fresh attack on the right of I Irishmen to self-determination as a I nation may be attempted." Senators Would Reduce Me Adoo's Tax Estimates Home Market Club Repre? sentative Advocates In? creased Duties on Imports Cites British Example Representative Johnson Intro? duces Plan for Taxing Sec? ond Class Mail Matter WASHINGTON, June 7. Discussion opened to-day before the House Ways and Means Committee preliminary to the framing of the new war revenue bill which is designed to raise one-third of the nation's expenses by taxation. As the hearings began rumblings of discontent came from the Senate. In? stead of the $8,000,000,000 suggested by Mr. McAdoo as the amount which should be raised under the new rdvenue act, many Senators, including members j of the Senate Finance Committee, were said to be disposed to favor a reduction to $6,000,000,000. Thomas 0. Marvin, ? of Iloston, representing the Home Market Club; Benjamin C. Marsh, of the Farmers' National Committee on War Finance, and Representative Al? bert Johnson, of Washington, were the first witnesses at the House committee hear,ng. Mr. Marvin advocated the raising of several million dollars more revenue by increased import duties. Drawing a comparison with England, he pointed out than in the United Kingdom import duties t.iis year would reach $400,000, 000, or $10.25 per capita, while in the United States they would amount to only $168,000,000, or $1.68 per capita. Mr. Marvin admitted that th jre were considerable difficulties in the way of flaming a tavitF law that would meet the nation's requirements after the war, but maintained his defence of a pro? tective tariff. In urging i heavier tax on ii comes, Mr. Marsh declared that du'ing the war no patriot desired an "licorne of more than $50,000. He said that he favored the confiscation of all incomes above that "igure and estimated that by this moins $1,600,000,000 could be] raised, and heavier taxes on lower in? comes would vjeld $1,800,000,000 more. Representative Johnson introduced ai plan for graduated taxes on second class mail matter. The afternoon sessions of the com? mittee were executive. The hearings will be continued to-morrow and Mr. I Mi.rsh is expected to complete 1 is tes? timony. June 13 has been :it as a ttntative date for closing the hearings. British Recruiting Gain3 The recruiting of Uritish subjects ? has taken a decided jump in the last i few days, which is attributed by the j British and ("anadian Recruiting Com- ] mission to the U-boat raid and to the , draft convention between the United Slates and Great Britain, whwich be comes effective soon.

Senator Fall, of New Mexico, to-day donounccd the proposed treaty between the United States and Colombia as an I example of what might com? from closet! diplomacy. Tho treaty, which provides for tho i payment of $25,000,000 to Colombia,] with other concessions, for the taking of ?and for the construction of the Panama fanal, is ponding before the Senate Foreign Relations ''onimitt.ee, where it was sent after efforts to have the Senate adopt it failed. "The treaty would make the United States an ally of Colombia against "practically every Latin American conn try." declared the New Mexico Senator. "It is an ofTence against those coun? tries that have joined us in this war." Plan to Enlist Is Sent to Wilson President Is Considering Mrs. Booth's Proposa!, Prison League Asserts A plan for enlisting carefully se? lected inmates of state. prisons throughout tho country into the army and navy of the United State:; has been submitted to President Wilson by Mrs. Ballingtop Booth, it was announced yesterday at the headquarters here of the Prison League of the Volunteers of America. The President is ?aid to have taken the proposal under advise? ment and .Mrs. Booth expects a final decision in the matter within a few days. "Mrs. Booth .submitted to the Presi? dent some particulars as to what the prisoners were doing for the war," said the statement, regarding the White' ?louse interview. "Many undergo daily military drill; in one prison some 400 men turn out to tue call of the bugle. The average number physically and otherwise tit (o bear arms is estimated on the basis of wardens' returns, at 40 per cent. Plan Favored by Wardens "The vast majority of wardens are favorable to the attachment, of men under their care to the fighting forces of the country. Mrs. Booth's idea, however, is not to form a prison force as a separate unit, as France did, but that they should lose their identity on selection and be drafted in propor? tions, as the military authorities may d.cide, into the various divisions of the army and navy or at work which they consider best suited to their ca? pacity. "Mrs). Booth pointeil out in her state? ment that the men were in excellent health, doing hard work in prison at handicrafts now vital to the movements of a modern army, and that they had proved their loyalty and reliability under the severity of prison discipline. They would, she suggested, be selected by the Parole Hoard, with a military representative, "Men in prison had contributed at leust $100,000 in Liberty bonds, were buying thousands of dollars' worth of war stamps every month, and many i were spending their leisure making garments for the Red Cross. Opposes Sensational Methods ".Mrs. Booth emphasized the neces? sity of avoiding any sensational meth? ods in exploiting tho men's part in the war. Such is the spirit awakened within the walls as to the justice of the war and the criminality of its chief actor that the men themselves are averse to any display of their readiness le fight and die for their country. They simply want to do their bit vit hout any fuss, "The case in all its bearings is tiow well understood by the President and the military authorities and Mrs. Booth expects to hear in a few days I the final decision on the matter-."

Frenchman could write,! for wo know that thorn are American mid English writers with similar spir? itual vision. Hut it. is of a style far more characteristic of French than of any other literature'; albeit the trans lator has rendered it. into our vernacu? lar so admirably that in the absence of ? the title page we might suppose it to ? liave been originally English. It be? longs in thai fine category of war ro? mances which is illumined with the titles of "The Tree of Heaven," "Mr. Drilling Sees It Through,.Hie Earth? quake" and some othors works which disclose, at once with the accurate skill of a Burgical analyst and with tho win- ? tin? charm of an idyllic poet, the spir- I itual transformation which comes to true souls through the anxieties, the labors and the losses of the great war. A lovely young French woman loses \ her officer-husband, to whom she is pas? sionately attached, in an early buttle of the war. Overwhelmed with grief, she seeks seclusion where she may spend j her life alone with memory of him and of their mutual love. But tho war is unescapable. Wherever she goes its echoes haunt her ears, its scenes af- ? front her vision She then seeks relief in working for the wounded, doing this with efficient zeal, but at the same time giving her mind and heart to her hus? band's memory. But this division will not permanently do; and so at the last there conies to her the supremo and convincing realization, "You no longer count!" "The only hope of a resurrec? tion lies in giving one's self to the com? mon need and losing one's self in it with love." It is a noble work, of ex? quisito human charm, and of spiritual splendor.

Some Hunnish Conspiracies SHOT W ??ill-lice \\0U\ .' By Goonre I'.arr Mc imo, pp. 161. IHxlcl. There have been many entertaining novels on the war published this year, but of them all this book written by the author of "Brewster's Millions" is one of the cleverest disclosures of the inner workings of the German Secret Service in New York, with the coopera? tion of American Germans, for the de? struction of munition plants and the destroying of docks and shipping. At the Black Downs Country Club, in Jersey, the guests are greatly startled by the shocks from heavy explosions, which prove to be the destruction of the Reynolds munition factory, a few miles from the clubhouse, which car? ried a large contract for the Allies. In that very select gathering of this smart club were some of the people who had planned the outrage, the chief perpetrator being Paul Zimmerlein, an American, born of German parents, who conducted the campaigns of havoc from his otlice, which was but a smooth-run? ning piece of machinery for German intrigue. Davenport Carstairs, also a member of the country club, was a wealthy and influential business man, at whose house distinguished people from all parts of tho country were en? tertained. As events prove, many im? portant secrets of the government leaked from the Carstairs house to the German Foreign Office, and it was re? vealed that they came from Mrs. Car? stairs, who also was of German parent? age and who had been working for sev? eral years for the German government. Through the efforts of an American of? ficer engaged to Carstairs's niece and Heiliges, their butler, who turned out to be an English Secret Service man, many : of the plots were thwarted and the ; conspirators caught. It remains to be , seen what happens to Mrs. Carstairs 1 for her disloyal acts to her country. Mr. McCutcheon has written many '' novels of intrigue, hair-breadth escapes and what not, but \n this latest book from his facile pen we have conspir aey in its highest form and some of his best romance, together with a fine pict? ure? of the sociological working of the German mind in relation to the mother country.

I'ryco. lamo, pp .'17!' Eloughton, Mifflin Com IK.liy. Let us bcirin by saying unhesitatingly that Mr. Pryce has here writt.m an ex? traordinary book. It is extraordinary i in the audacity of its theme and plot, and it is extraordinary in the exquisite , art. with which it portrays woodland! scenery and also with which it dissects ? Mid discloses the feminine mind and heart. Indeed, in these latter respects we should be hard put to it to name its superior. Possibly there ic a touch cf the meticulous. He is so careful to tell precisely how every individual prlint of sunshine fell upon every in Richard Fryce ('?The Statue In th? Wood"; Houfrhton Miffiin Co.) -4-.-__ dividual leaf. Possibly ther.? is a little too much of art and too little of the careless of nature. Yet, it is all so un H eakably charming that we are a ib ? mod of ourselves for our own meticulousness in taking exception to it We feel as though wa had com : plained of a crumpled roseleaf on a couch. When, however, we turn to the theme, 1 or rather to the plot involved in the working out of the theme?titnt is an? other story; concerning whit-h we are compelled to say that the autl or seems to us to have sacrificed the truth of human nature to c'ramatic art. The whole idyl, romaneo, drama, v. hat you will, centres and turns, of course, upon he incident which closes the First Book. Let us grant that th" author has there expressed the inexpressible with all possible dtlicacy an.l with a minimum of offence; differently, im? measurably, lroni the way in whico Zola or Hall ruine would have treated ! it. Let us grant, too, in our copious ! ness of credulity, that such an incident could have been possible with such persons. Yet wo are moved everlast? ingly to deny the possibility of the man's acting thereafter as lie is repre? sented as doing; unless, indei i, he was a very, very different creature from that which Mr. Pryce has portrayed. Such a performance as the book records is simply contrary to human nature. If Coram was guilty of it he was a ' physical, mental and moral mon? strosity. The book, we repeat, is a most ex ! ceptional one, which will attract much attention and provoke much contro? versy. But it sneiris to us to suffer from an exaggeration of "art for art's sake, without regard to plausibility, human nature or common sense. A Romance of Age OI.T) FEWM! AND TIIH THINGS THAT PAPS.

Nonagenarians do not often figure [ at all in fiction, and still more seldom | are heroes and heroines. In this work j they do, and they are invested with a i fascination not less than that of the I most buoyont youth. It was a daring I experiment for Mr. Couperus to make, : but the delighted readers of his former | works will take this un with a conft | dence which complete reading will am? ply vindicate. We are accustomed, of course, to | romances in which the influence of ] heredity is felt, the influence be i queathed by ancestors long passed ! away. In this case it is the subtle influence of those still living but so j old as to seem a part of the buried | past. The work is a psychological I romaneo of singular pqwer; sombre at I times with the forebodings of fate, and | at times tragic; but always invested I with genuine human feeling.

''Success succeeds.'1 Whitelaw Reid's : historic phrase comes to mind when ! ever we open one of Mr. Oppenheim's ' novels. We do not mean that their j success is inexplicable or undeserved. But when all is said and done, his im j mense popularity resolves itself chief ' ly into the antithesis of Dr. Fell. We ; liktj him. Perhaps the reason why we 1 cannot tell, but we like him, ana that is all there is about it. This is, of 1 course, a detective -or, rather, a mys I tory?-story, and it is absolutely in I teresting from start to finish. It deals with the war, and with Germai. in- : trigues, plots and deviltries, and, de spit? Mr. Oppenheim's Inclination to melodrama, is seldom so extravagant as to challenge credence; at any rate, in this day, when the impossibilities! of yesterday are tho commonplaces of to-day. Men Who Dared to Die Classic. Tales of the Heroism of French Soldiers THB NEW BOOK OF MARTTBS By <?>".rr?i lnihaim-i Translated from tito French by Flor? ence Blmniond?. 12mo. pp. 221. The Ceurge II. lloran Company. It is well named; yet not without alternativo. It might as fittingly have been called a book of heroes. Indeed, the two titles are indissolubly related. | A martyr is always a hero, and a hero is always a potential martyr. We should hesitate to say which of the two phases of the one character is the ; more fully portrayed in this singularly luminous, sympathetic and inspiring Reginald Grant ("S. O S. Stand To"; l>. Appleton & Co.) volume. Both are brought out in a manner which will be quite unforget? table to any one who reads the book. The talas?we know not. and care not | to what extent they are literally true I and to what extent they are imaginary, ? since every word of every one is su? premely instinct with perfect truth? are those of a surgeon's hospital obser? vations, experiences, work; of the suf? ferings and heroism of the torn and shattered soldiers who are brought in from the battlefield; of the spiritual i illumination which glorifies pain and triumphs over death. Note an example taken at random. It is at Verdun: Sometimes a wounded man hroueht us the latest news of the battle. Be? tween his proans, he described the incredible bombardment, the obsti? nate resistance, the counter attacks at the height of the hurly-burly. All these simple fellows ended their story with the samo words, sur? prising words at such a moment of I suffering: "They can't get throturh now . . ." Then they began to moan again. It is a wonderful book which Mr. Du? hamel has written, and which Miss Simmonds hns translated into English with exquisite ? sympathy, grace and skill. But then, it is a wonderful theme: perhaps, the most wonderful that the wold has ever known. Old-Fashioned Romance TUR KN'CUANTEI) BAHN. Bv <,ra.-e Livingston Hill I.utE.

Maybe it seems trite and j threadbare to some sophisticated souls; ' but after all it is no more so than 1 human life itself. And ave we not told that that novel should portray hum-in I life? Go to, therefore, all who would i scorn the old-fashioned romance of the girl who lived in a barn and was ! wooed and wedded by the young mil j lionaire who came in a motor car.

Studies in Lechery j THB ritlOTTY I.A.DY. Hy Arnold Bennett, limo. , pp 852. Tho Ueorge If. Doran Company. I We do not generally look to Mr. Bennett for attractive characters, but I we must confess that we hail scarcely expected to find even in his works ( uite so repulsive a degenerate pervert ; as the "hero" of this tale. Plenty of : other fictional?characters have con? sorted with the loose fish of the streets \ and music halla. But when a man goes to tell a supposedly decent young ; woman -A her husband's death in the | war, and instantly begins lasciviously l speculating upon her sexual charms, : we beg to drnw the line. So, too, we are accustomed, without protest, to see courtesans exploited in romance; but we must protest that no requirement of literary "art" even "for art's sake" calls for the exploitation of un? dressed scenes between them and their lovers in their bedchambers. Mr. Bennett has unquestioned skill of portraiture, and at times a raro dramatic power, and these qualities are | opulently displayed in this volume. But the whole thing is feverish and ? hectic with abnormal sexuality. Even \ the stupentlous issues of the war and ; tho inscrutable mysteries of life and 1 death can never quench tho sux-con sciousness of his characters or causo them to rise above sensual desire. T?o ?"slow wcrking of conscience" effects some changes in them, hut never aro ? they convincingly removed from the ? ? plane of physiological passion. To: adapt the sentimental Tommy: You may change, you may alter their i ways as you will, i But the scent of patchouli will hang' i round them still.
