The Austrian attack, directed towards Lybitt, was evidently the favorite out- flanking maneuver, and the fighting about the Tomaszow (on the Russian frontier, nerth of Lemberg) has been particularly severe.

That town is half encircled by the Russian forces at a distance of ene march from its strategic points.

Surrender on Sept. 2, 1870, settled the fate of the Third Empire, laid the solid foundation of a new Ger-. man Empire, gave Alsace-Lorraine and supremacy on the Continent to Germany. * Today 2,000,000 of Germans in arms in France, in Belgium, in Russia and in Germany will endeavor to celebrate the anniversary by achievements which shall make the day memorable anew. In the nineteenth century it was the birthday of German unity and military great- ness. Today, for every German, the words of Gen. von Bernhardi, “Our next war means world power or downfall,’ have a particular meaning. And on this German holiday, on which also the first month of the war termi- nates, it would be impossible to deny that Germany has marched far upon the road to what her statesmen have long called her ‘‘Place in the Sun.” Her victorious armies have already proved utterly that the German ‘“‘ma- chine,”’ created by the father of Fred- erick the Great, used by him, remodeled by the soldiers of the German uprising in 1813, moulded on grander and more splendid lines by Von Moltke and Von Roon, is still as marvelous as ever. A Month’s stchicvements. In one short nnesnth the av_ay has swept through Belgium, crushed the feeble Belgian forces, broken down te north- ern gate to France, and has driven be- fore it French armies still unbroken, but yielding steadily to terrific blows dealt by numbers always superior—despite the terrible losses of each advance. To the precision and efficiency of the machine there is added the enthusiasm, the devo- tion of the soliders, who are fairly rival- ing the Japanese in their recklessness and contempt for death. Once more, the German army has been mobolized more. quickly, equipped more completely, handled with more skill and judgment, than the French. Once fmore it has been left to the French soldiers, aided by a small but sturdy army of English, to seek to repair, to redeem, the er- rors of politcians in the cabinet and palterers in the field. So far they have failed, not decisively, but wholly. French Have Allies Now. Yet the wonderful achievement of German arms should not blind the ob- Server to the manifest difference be- tween Sedan day 1870 and 1914. On tho earlier day, the surrender of Napoleon left the road to Paris open, while Ba- zaine, behind the walls of Metz, was doomed to surrender when starvation came. No thought of further resistance. save a brief siege of Paris, could have troubled the German invaders. No ally in Europe moved to succoi prostrate France. Yet Paris resisted %or long months. Gambetta raised hundreds of thousands of men, who fought brave battles, even won cne. strained German endurance severely bevore the inevita- ble came. Today, so far as French or German official statements go, no army of France has been routed or capturéd. On the Vosges, the Eastern army is fight- ing on even terms with an army it has confronted for weeks, now advancing, now retiring. On the Meuse a second army, from Verdun to Mezieres, still holds the ground which, like the posi- tion to the South, is the first line >f French defense within sight of the frontier. Only on the north has I'rench retreat been serious, and here some hundreds of thousands of French, with less than 100,000 English, are fikhting and retir- ing, now( thrusting back, now slipping away the main army, which has penetrated some © miles into France. The fact that a political min- istry sent masses of troops to the re- mote Vosges, and left. Paris open, ex- plains German progress, but already French corps are coming back and re- inforcements are arriving from England, as well as from the south and west of France. “German Outlook Ominous, Eestward, on the Vistula, Russian ad- vance has begun with unexpected promptness, and with East Prussia al- mcst wholly lost, troops. The first are on the Somme and the Meuse. Panic-stricken Germans, fleeing from the Cossacks, are as fa- miliar at the moment in East Prussia as French refugees leaving their homes be- fore the Uhlan advance in Picardy, Artois and Flanders. Looking seaward, the German pros- pect is even more unattractive. ‘Our future is on the sea,”’ said the Emperor years ago, and now, while his great battle fleet lies helpless in Helgoland, English cruisers the world over are sweeping up his commerce and mer- chant marine, Japan is filching his Chi- nese colony, England’.-has taken Ger- man Samoa, and the patches of German land in Africa are doomed. At the close of a month of war, the German Emperor stands where Napo- leon stood before Austerlitz, with a splendid army, a loyal nation, a shin- ing record of military triumph. But for the Kaiser, Austerlitz has not yet come. France is not yet crushed. Se- dan day sees French defeat, but not disaster. She is losing the ‘first round.’ But neither in Paris, London nor St. Petersburg is there any hint of averting a second. Even Servia, the occasion of the tragedy, is stepping over into Bosnia, while French and English cannon are driving the Austri- ans from the foot of the Black Moun- tain. A month of horrors this has been, made more terrible by the fact that it has insured more months of suffering, struggle, human misery. A month in which each day’s news, gathered hastily from newspapers still fresh from the press, contains deeds and events which will be remembered as long as written history endures. British Commandeer Three Powerf! Wireless Stations. NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—The British Government has commandeered the three high powered wireless telegraph stations at Poldhu, Towym and Car- narvon, Wales, and has made an emer- gency war ruling that no merchant ves- sel may send wireless messages while within three miles of the English coast, according to information received here by E, J. Nally, vice-president and gen- eral manager of the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. of America. These sta- tions, completed only a short time ago, were to have been opened to the public today. The control of this wohidbiides Plant in Wales, Mr. Nally said, would enable the British Admiralty to keep in constant communication with its navy vessels anywhere within a radius of 3000 miles. He said he had been informed also that the British Government has éemanded the exclusive services of 150 Marconi wireless operators employed at Welsh stations. —_-__—_— Embassy in London Dentex Turkey Will Enter the. War. LONDON, Sept. 1.—It is denied em- phatically here by members of the Turk- ish embassy that Turkey intends’ to enter the general European war. The embassy says there is no intention of such an action, and adds that the Porte’s stand has been communicated to tne British Government. The report that Turkey was about to enter the international conflict was due primanily to a story that German army and navy officers had joined the fight- ers of the Porte to teach them modern systems. This report is denied here. It is believed, however, .that Turkey has been busy with warlike preparations and that she may take the side of Germany in the hope of recapturing the islands, now hse sp which she recently lost. the road to Berlin f is defended by second and third line FRENCH mei naar * ARTILL RY Ss in ACTIC )N-- GUN “ ” %, reads Wey: Py. ps hi N + Dy itil , ; PP ad? * a i ¥ i, ate Besa = ! ‘a 4 Ae: ¥ so! x ‘4 a¥ Fy ‘ — ° - 3 Spek Re cot ‘ .

HL AND. WIND SWEEP THE CITY Sudden Downpour in Places Reaches Proportions of a Cloudburst. Gen. Thunder advanced to the outer defensés of St. Louis this afternoon and for a time there was heavy cannon- ading, followed by a downpour of rain which in some portions of the city reached the proportions of a cloud- burst. In the Walnut Park district in North- west St. Louis hai] was mixed with the rain, but the icy shrapnel was small and did little damage. The heaviest rain was in that section of the city between Sarah street and the city limits and between Laclede avenue and Baden. In the West End the storm broke suddenly about 12:40 p. m. and in a few minutes many streets were turned into miniature rivers, as the sewers were unable to carry off the water. Storm Increases. At 12:45 a light rain began falling in the downtown district north of Chouteau avenue. This developed into a downpour about 1:0 p. m. For about half an hour the fall was al- most as heavy in fhe central part of the city as it had been earlier in the northwestern section. Reports from South St. Louis were that the rainfall was at no time heavy there, though theré were showers about the time the rainfall reached its maximum elsewhere. At Fairground Park, bathers, many of them women, made a hasty rush for Shelter, as bathers usually do when it rains, although when the storm broke most of them were up to their necks in water, and as wet as they could possi- bly be. : Wind Heavy for Time. ' At 1:30 there was a heavy wind from the north, which drove the rain in blind- ing sheets through the downtown streets. This wind lasted only a few minutes. The rain then settled to a steady downpour. In the first stages of the storm light- ning struck an electric light pole in front of the Laclede Avenue Police Sta- tion. The damage was slight. Rain did not begin to fall south of Chouteau avenue wntil about 1:30 Pp. m At that time there had been no rain 1n Carondelet, the extreme southern por- tion of the city. A sheet of fire came from a fuse box on the front platform of a west- bound Eighteenth street. car on Pine Street, near Broadway, during the storm, and the reflection of the flame in window fronts could be seen for sev- eral blocks. When F. B. Lintke, the motorman, replaced the burned-out fuse and start- ed his car, the controller box caught fire. This was quickly extinguished. Detective Woods was the only passen- ger on the car, and neither he nor Lintke were injured. It was necessarv for another car to push the Eighteenth street car to the car barns. Several cars on the Olive lines were disabled during the storm by the blowing out of fuses in the overhead switches. These blowouts usually occurred when there were flashes of lightning. Traffic on several other lines was also delayed by the storm. The rain brought with it a sharp de- Cline in temperature. At noon the of- ficial reading was 88 degrees and at 2 p. m. it was 73. The storm had then spent its force and the sun was shining. STREET SWEEPER HURT WHEN AN AUTO SKIDS Driver Goes to Police Station and Gives Bond to Answer Charge of Careless Driving. Robert Soper, 75 years old, of 2021 Franklin avenue, a street sweeper, sus- tained a fracture of the right leg and cuts on the head today at 8 a. m., when an auto driven by William H. Coffey, of 5600 Cates avenue, salesmanger of the Ferguson-McKinney Dry Goods Co, skidded on Washington avenue 50 feet west of Grand, and struck him. Soper was taken to the city hospital, and Coffey drove to the Laclede Avenue Police Station ani gave bond for his appearance in court to answer a charge of careless driving. 7 Coffey said that in attempting to avoid hitting another auto, he turned a little to the left. He said that his ma- chine then skidded, and hit Soper, who was at work on the streets. He said the accident was unavoidable. 17 TYPHOID CASES AT »* HOSPITAL NOT UNUSUAL Superintendent Says He Does Not Attribute Them to City Water. Supt. Chapman of the city hospital said this afternoon that 17 typhoid cases are at the hospital, two of the patients being internes. Chapman said that the number of ty- phoid patients at the hospital at pres- ent is no larger than in previous years, and he does not attribute their illness to the condition of the city water. In previous years, Chapman said, _ the number of typhoid patients was about the same, if not greater, than the pres- ent number. The two internes who are afflicted with typhoid fever are C. A. Arnold and J. W. Towey. The Post-Dispatch fs the only evening news- Paper in St. Louis that receives or publishes mews gathered by the Associated Press. 4 Fierida National Bank Closes.

L—The lives of 300 Dassengers of the excursion boat City of Chicago, which caught fire about i2 miles out from this harbor in Lake Michigan at 5 o’clock this morning, were saved by the resourcefulness of Capt. Oscar Biork. His wireless failing to work, Capt. Bjork ordered the engines set full speed ahead and 45 minutes later the big boat, with a carrying capacity of 2600 pas- sengers, sunk her bow into the Gov- ernment pier and was wedged fast. Throughout the ordeal the officera and crew stuck to their posts, although the stokers and enginemen were chok- ing with the smoke and the flames were bursting from the upper works. To avoid panic, the passengers, nearly all of whom were asleep in their cabins, were not notified to come on deck until the pier was dimly visible through the morning mist. “Women and children first,”’ ordered i brought into the city on the rescuing craft. The flames were supdued after a three hours’ fight by the fire tugs, as- sisted by streams from the excursion boats. The stern settled a few feet owing to water accumulating in her hold, but the prow remained wedged in the pier. The'City of Chicago left Benton Har- bor, Mich., 85 miles from Chicago, short- iy before midnight. The fire started in an air shaft leading into the cook’s galley amidships.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1—Paul Fuller, personal representative of President Wil- son, is due in Mexico City today, to discuss with the Government there ques- tions relafing to thé American occu- Ppancy of Vera Cruz, as well as differ- ences between Carranza and Villa. Although administration officials have not announced their position in any formal way, it is generally understood that recognition will be withheld until a complete agreement between the two chieftains has been reached and arrange- ments made for a constitutional elec- tion. Provisional President Carranza has or- dered the port of Vera Cruz closed, ac- cording to official advices yesterday from Gen. Funston. State Department offcials are not inclined to regard the action as unfriendly. During the Huerta regime Vera Cruz similarly was closed, but foreign ves- sels paid little attention to the order. Carranza’s decree would prevent Mexi- can ships from putting in at Vera-Cruz and, if enforced in an unfriendly way, mignt exact heavy penalties from for- eign vessels entering any other Mexican port after they touched at Vera Cruz. In some quarters there was a dispo- sition to regaru Carranza’s attitude as one of resentment against the con- tinued occupancy of Vera Cruz bv American troops, but State Department officials did not share this view.

Dr. Arthur Gravatt, 28 years old, was arrested yesterday afternoon at the home of Policeman Frank Yew- ell at 4366 Page avenue, where he has lived since he married Yewell'’s daughter, Colleen, Dec. 17 last. An entry on the police blotter at the Deer Street Staion says Gravatt is held as “suspected of bigamy.” The police are investigating an accusa- tion that he had a wife in Chicago when he married Miss Yewell. Dr. Gravatt’s arrest was made at the request of his father-in-law and his brother-in-law, Charles Yewell. The Yewells today refused to make a statement for publication or to per- mit Mrs. Gravatt to see reporters. Gravatt denies he has a wife in Chicago. He says he once practiced medicine there, but knows of no basis for the bigamy accysation. SOFIA SEES NEW COMET Reports Say It Can Be Observed With Naked Eye.

April 10, 1907. 8 ‘POSTDISPATCH aha, Circulation vs — of 1914: s 73,820: 316,127 Biggest ee of the Mississippi LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ) Dangerous Pedantry in Mexico. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. @©n your front page last night this dispatch: Washington, Aug. 41.—Brigadier-General ‘funston has reported to the War Department Provisional President Carranza has de- Jiared the port of Vera Cruz closed. Funston estates that this will have a serious effect on the city’s food supply. In other words, First Chief ‘Carranza—he is not provisional president or any other kind of presi- dent, but only the chief military leader of a suc- | @essful revolution, which has not yet given way to ~@ elvil government—has again reminded the ‘Washington Government that the presence of “armed American soldiers in Mexico is unnecessary and offensive to Mexican dignity. .@Carranza has been accused (by American inter- co scegrguat altruists and theorists generally), of a “dangerous péedant,” because he has stood tly for the sanctity of his country’s soil the sovereignty of the Mexican people * the soil of Mexico. He has refused to take wer@ers from Washington, hence he is a “danger- - @us pedant.” | There is a far more dangerous pedantry than s ‘a in the mental attitude of the Washing- - ten Government—more dangerous and much less Washington Government, with no warrant force, insists upon having an army in Mexico .te see. to it that the Mexican people organize a etvil government on the lines laid down by the Wea Government. Yor Carranza’s “pedantry” {t is to be said thet ae: is based on patriotism and self-respect. The m Government's pedantry is based, so oes as the public is permitted to know, solely _ypon an altruistic ideal, and a somewhat stubborn ‘personal determination to see the Mexicans swal- low it, whether they like it or not. _@ur army ought to have gone into Mexico two years ago, when the Americans had a billion dol- lars’ worth of property there to be saved, and ' when 75,000 American citizens there had business @f employment at stake. Having waited until mest of this property was lost or destroyed, and ‘nearly all of the Americans driven out of Mexico, We ought never to have sent an army into the ' country at all. We ought now to bring our troops home immediately. Every day they stay there their: presence is a provocation to Mexican fire- _ eaters to commit some act of hostility which will eee this country into a long, costly and wholly — war.

Usted States that it has a direct interest in ‘the result of this war—that democracy is at stake. We believe that democracy as a ee institu- tion is destined not only to survive the results| of this war, however adverse they might prove, but to stfengthen, grow and flourish, despite any conceivable military triumphs of autocracy in the present struggle. Democracy “fs involved to the extent that democratic governmental forms—and ferms only—are menaced, “Their complete over- throw could change the political geography but not the essential political character of European peoples or of Britons. There is one thing even stronger in Germany than iron militarism itself and that is democracy—democracy manifest and democracy potential. Let us not be blinded to the internal truth by the outward spectacle of the German people in action as a war engine, a dis- ciplined fighting machine, obeying the dictates of a single autocrat. Imperialism, through the lat- ter years of peace and preparation, has only held Germany in control and command and retained the sympathies of the industria] masses through a lib- eral, progressive policy and concessions to the spirit and vital principle of democracy. Democracy is incidentally, not primarily, in issue in this war. Primarily it is not a war of principles, but of politics—-a war of nationalities, of flags, insignia and the paraphernalia of arma- ments. It is a war of ambitions, vanities, preju- dices, resentments, a letting of bad blood;) and there are Czars and imperialists upon both sides of it. There fs no clear-cut issue ‘of democracy over which the nations have aligned or declared themselves, for or against. A German victory would leave the German people themselves ulti- mately to be reckoned with’ over the issue of democracy. On the other hand the complete de- struction of the German Empire would leave questions of democracy to be settled among the conquering Allies. When the day comes and popular rule is squarely asserted against the fiction of divine right, will not England herself amend her outward form of government and doff her royal vestments? Will not the impotent crown be swept away as well as the potent scep- ter, and the last vestige, pretense and empty tra- dition of monarchy disappear with the _ sub- stance? | In the meantime the United States can best up- hold, strengthen and aignify democratic institu- tions by maintaining its neutrality and impar- tial friendship towards every one of the afflicted nations. In no other way than by the contrast of peace can we preserve the great vital example of a working democracy to an aspiring world. The logic of Winston Churchill might have been addressed to us with equal force a century ago, when Napoleon assaulted Europe. If yielded to, it might have drawn us into every European war and continental brawl] in the last century. If yielded to, the logic of Churchill might veritably have involved democracy by endangering, by weakening, the world’s foremost successful experi- ment in government by the people. = = ~~ bag HOMEOPATHY FOR NOSTALGIA. Representative Burke, of Wisconsin, says that the trouble with Congress is nostalgia. The sys- tems of the members are thoroughly permeated with the germs of this obscure disease. It causes them to be restless, to seek alleviation at resorts and the baseball park and even to absent them- selves in large numbers from. Washington and break the quorum: Fortunately study of the complaint has pro- gressed to the point where unfailing specifics can confidently be prescribed. A powerful germicide exists for its complete eradication. If Congress- men are too homesick to stay in Washington and earn their handsome salaries, the voters have a homeopathy which they will apply in November with every prospect of success. Independence day was not quite as safe and sane this year as last. Those who met death as a reguit of fireworks and accidenta._ numbered 40, an increase of eight over 1918, and those wounded numbered 1466, an increase of 335. However the figures show a significant and gratifying decrease from 1909, when the dead numbered 215 ahd the injured 5092. Though other explanations are given, the in- crease over last year is probably due te a fall- ing off in the energy with which the safe and sane campaign has been conductéd. There should be no let up. The figures should show a continuous decrease, instead of a slight increase. Eyen a list of dead one-fifth that of five years ago is a reproach. ‘= = * rw. ae ONLY ONE SNOOKUMS. A reader of the Post-Dispatch at Marianna, Ark., asks a question which, he admits, has caused him nights of restlessness and days of anxiety. It induced him to write two whole pages of large letter paper relating his fears and: hopes as to the probable answer. He asks for a candid, unhurried consideration of the great question. In fact, he would allow us a j month for its most careful study. The question is: “Do you think that the Newlyweds will ever have another Snookums?” _ We do not. No family was ever blessed with janother Snookums.e It would not be’ possible. a 2s rewire baby No. 1, the glorious fruit of " |the honeymoon, is, was and always will be sole “Jand inimitable.

But te won't be Snookums! = = * oO BACK TO THE BENCH. : Here is concrete evidence of the industrial re- vival which every circumstance in the world’s industrial situation had foreshadowed for this country with the coming of autumn. Five thousand shoemakers have returned to work in St. Louis factories and 6000 more, it is announced, will resume activity within the next fortnight. EKurope’s shoemaking is in suspense while her shoemakers fight each other in hostile armies. Europe needs more shoes now than ever, for her millions in the field, and can get them only from the United States. | The quickened demand will be felt on the ranches of Argentina and Bolivia, whence hides will come to American tanneries in increasing vol- ume, to be transformed into footwear for the en- larged European market. Europe's peoples, locked in a death grip on the field of battle, have ceased for the time being to compete with this country in the arts of peace. = = > Mi Ai A FAE-FETOHED VIEWS OF NEUTRALITY. Without formally protesting against our pro- posed purchase for American registry of ships now flying the German flag, the British Foreign Office adopts the extraordinary French official view, that such purchase would place funds at the disposal of German subjects in large amounts and be equivalent to supplying the German Gov- ernment with financial assistance. London adds the further point that the transfer of ships in such large numbers from a belligerent is without precedent: e The, adoption of the principle that any or all transactions are interdicted which would increase | the financial resources of a people at war would greatly restrict the privileges of noncombatants, whereas the whole tendency of recent progress has been to enlarge their privileges.

Ever since the Balkan war there has been an intense jealousy between French and German military men as to the untested merits of the artillery of the two countries, and this rivalry contributed ret a little to the bit- terness leading up to the war.

The season is more than two- thirds spent, and Wagner is worry- ing along with a batting average of .260, with about the same chance attaining a .300 mark as the Nap have of overhauling the Athletics. Altogether, thisis a red-letter year in the history of the Pittsburg club. Wagner promises to drop out of the charmed circle of hitters for the first time in his great career, while Fred Clark now is almost destined to chap- erone his first second division bali club. The Pirates are in last place, but only 1% games out of fourth place. hey are eight full games our of first division, and their chances of climbing into the “fat four” are too remote to even get passing con- sideration. The Last Straw. Should they finish last they will furnish only another upset to a sea- son unusual in baseball circles. Be- fore the curtain rang up in the par- ent league the Pirates were desig- nated as the “best team on paper’ in the circuit. It was a team of vet- erans, conceded a rattling good chance to bag the bunting before Father Time claimed several’ of its stars. Already Mike Mowrey, who promised to be an important cog in the machine, has drawn his uncondi- tional release, and has passed qulet- ly into oblivion, while Wagner has ‘tumbled out of the .300 crowd of hit- ters. Koney, who was purchased at a steep price, has been victimized by the first base jinx, and is bat- iing all of .246, while there’s a rumor in the inner circles that he is tick- eted for release. The club ig ge & ing in fits and starts, most of the latter being false.

As the club now stacks up, however, it con- tains no man who could be looked upon as a successor to Clarke. Pirates Trim Cards. Despite its poor showing, the Pittsburg club has been year to maintain its sway Cardinals. So far the Pirates have won 10 and Jost five to Hug’s men, being one of the three teams in the circuit that has the edge in the battling to date. Cincinnati, with 10-6 and Boston with 12—6, are the others. The Pirates are here this time for a four-game _ series and with Manager Huggins out of the lineup the local pros- pects cannot be called exactly roseate. Just the same there are a lot of fans who are more than eager to see Sen- ator Nash in harness and while they re- gret the loss of Huggins, unquestionably the most consistent winning player of the local club, they do welcome the com- ing of Nash, who has the earmarks os a star. Some day Hug will be obliged to quit. He’s prone now to injury and his spik- ing at the hands of Big Schmidt may cause him to be shelved for a week or more. His shin, has been lacerated in three places and 4ntection has set in, but the chances of serious developments are not great.

Central was runner up last year, and its loss will be felt by the league. As to football, Central will get a late start but will most probably turn out an eleven.
