WASHINGTON, May 25. Itussia is out of l lie war, us rar 11.4 military power is concerned, for at least two jeaiK, and France Is near the end of her man power. This Is the opinion of American military men and stu dents, according to the reports of American military observers. Great Hritain h;is considerable "punch" left, but the struggle is reaching a point where the I'nited States must bear the main burden. American ex perts believe that the war will last long. They believe that the first half million men is a "mere drop In the bucket," and that other vast incre ments must follow. They deeiare that the west front fighting Is mis interpreted and unreliably reported. They maintain that for months the American people - have been led astray in reports of the lighting. The ullles, they declare, are not making I be headway that Is reported here. PEACE PROPOSALS TO ORWARDED S TO TOREIGN NATIONS STOCKHOLM.

In 0110. of the 'cases dismissed here today Mr. Sheridan was charged with forging the name of John Servia. an alleged Catholic priest, to a promis sory note in the sum of $S0ti0. This transaction occurred on February S, 101O, according to the Indictment re 1 turned against Mr. Sheridan, and the money taken from the Dank to satis fy the note was the property of K. 1". and Mrs. Emily I'rchle. In his motion asking for a dismis-1 sal of this action the district attorney , said he had made a careful and painstaking search for Mr. Servia. al leged signer of the Instrument, but 1 had failed to ascertain his where- I shouts. The district attorney said I such a man w as thought to have been j in lioseburg about the year 19 Id, but he could find no person who knew where he was located at the present time. District Attorney Neuner al-.-o set out in the motion for a dis missal that C. K. Murks, William Carlon and F. . Stewart, three of ihe principal witnesses for the state. !iad died since the Indictment against I Mr. Sheridan was returned. The lion lapse of time between the time 'or the alleged shady transaction and I the prescent dale made a conviction j in the case impossible, according to the district attorney. In the other action Mr. Sheridan was licensed of embezzling, in con- nection Willi withdrawing from the bank approximately $511110 belonfing , to Mrs. I-aura verreii. or r.dennower. This monev.
