THIS IS "BALANCE

of power m: DECLARES SHAW

British Writer Sees As Much Danger in Russian Domination As in Prussian Militar ism English Are Proving j Their "Weight." Ln.N'Io.V. A 11 sr. 12. The News publishes the following: Dally iiv gforgi-: hfrnard mi.wv. "Now that we are at war it Is wll we should know what the war is about. To begin with, we art not at war f)Pcau.e Germany rnudf an in- ! famous proposal that we should allow her to violate Helgian neutrality. If it had suited us to accept that proposal we should hive found plenty of rcann f r accepting it. The devotees of our own neutrality have found some of them already no more j infamous than the diplomatic reasons! we have Riven in the past for courts which happen to be convenient to us. i Let us therefore drop it. "Our national truck of virtuous indignation is tiresome enough in peaceful party .strife at home, at war it is ungallant and unpardonable. lt us take our pugnacity to the field and leave our hypocrisy and our bad Mood at home. They weaken the heroic tighter and encourage only blackguards. For Hula nee of Power. "This war is a balance of power war and nothing ele, and the fact that we all have to face is that if our wide is victorious the result will b an overbalance of power in favor of Russia, far more dangerous to till other combatants than the one we are fighting- to redress. "Prussian militarism has bullied us for forty yearn. and months a? neither Germany nor France- believed that we would liirht when it came to the point. That is why there was yuch n wild expression of delighted surprise when the P"rench thamber learned that we were ame alter all. That la why the kaiser, though reck1 of evnr' other interest concerned, offtTetl us tht best excuse he could Invent for our neutrality. Pelievln we are only too ready to snatch at it. And that is also why we had to take off our coat and sjj.11 in. We had to show that when it comes to a balance of power wo are no mere weights In the scale. Mint n-ht Hani. "Our Immediate business. fore, is to light as hard as dummy therewc can. for our weight when the settlement comes, will depend on the part we shall have played in the coniliet. ".Meanwhile the political influence of organized labor at home must not le waved in idle and exasperating platitudes about the wickedness of war and the extravagance ot big armaments and the simplicity of nonintervention and all other splintered planks of the old peace retrenchment and reform platform. The difference between the foreign policy of the socialise and the foreign policy of capital is simple. Capital sends the flag at the heels of speculation for profit; socialism would keep the (lag at the head of civilization. Capital badly wanted at horne, Is sent abroad after cheap labor. Financiers use the control of the army and the tle?t. which they obtain through parliament solely to guard their unpariotic investments. That is the root of the present mischief. "France, instead of using her surplus income in abolishing French .slums and building up French children into strong men anil women, has lent It to Russia to strengthen the most tyrannical government In Kurope and to secure the interest on her loan she has entered Into an un natural alliance with Russia a-gainst ! her more civilized neighbors. Can't Throw Stones. "We have no right to throw stones at France on this account, for we made an agreement with Russia of a till more sordidly commercial character for the exploitation of Persia with capital that should have fed our

starving children, and now mark tho ( peace, practically Issued an ultimaconsequences. Germany, with hos- turn to Austria. He ordered her In

Ry our blindness we have brought about the war. Wo hart deliberately added to the strain by making a military and naval antiCiemian alliance with France without at the atne time balancing its effect by assuring Germany that if she kept peace with France we would not help Russia against her nor in the last resource allow Russia to advance her frontier westward. "Is it to be wondered at that Potsdam militarism with a chronic panic and with militarism raised to desperation by the menace of Russia. France Hnd Kngland has made a wild attempt to cut its way out after a despairing appeal to let it tight one to two instead of one to three. Could Have Kcit Peace. "Let us be Just to Potsdam.

CIRCUSES SLAY LOSE MUSICIANS

Mt or tin Men Are Forrun Horn Saj Representative of IOC Show. "The managers of all the big tent shows are confronted by a very peculiar problem growing out of the I'uropewn war." said a representative of Miller Rros. & Arlington's 101 Ranch Wild West show, last night. - x Nine-tenths of all the musicians In I thi country are Europeans and the majority of them are reservists and have been called upon to return to their respective countries and Join the colors. Nothing hut their inability to secure safe ptu.satre across the ocean prevents them from leaving. "In the 101 Ranch Wild West concert band there are ?,2 musicians. The b-ader is an Italian and probably a third of the players are Italians. Among the others are Relgians, Germans, two Russian?, a Pole and three Austrian.. More than half of th-m are reservists, and the chances are that within a short time they will have to be replaced in the band. This; however, is a more serious thing than many people realize. There is scarcely a strictly American band in the Fnited States outside of the small cities, and usually these musicians have other employment and simply play in the town band for pleasure or to earn a little extra money. Even the marine band in Washington, employed by the United States government, is composed v of foreign musicians, and this is the case with the majority of the regimental bands. "However. South Rend people, who will be given an opportunity to see the 101 Ranch Wild West show on Thursday. August 1!0. need not be afraid of attending a show without music. No matter what happens musicians will be found to complete the band, although under the circumstances it will be a dilficult task, not only for the 101 Ranch show, hut also for all the hi circuses which are in the same predicament. Incidentally, the performances given ly the lei Ranch show this year are credited with heinK superior to anything ever before given by this typical exhibition." War Correspondent in London From Berlin Gives Some Inside 'Dope' on War Brew. LONPOX, A up. 12. Robert Crosier Long, famous war correspondent and one of the last Americans to leave Rerlin, declared Tuesday that it was Austria's action, not those of GerI manv. which plunged Kurope into warfare. HV UOHKIIT CROSIFR LONG. LONDON, Aug. It. During the war crisis I was received by Foreign Minister Von Jagow. by Asst. Minister Zimmerman and by liaron Stamm. chief of the Knglish department of the foreign otflee. I also had long talks with Kussian Ambassador Swerbenmeff. I was shown by DethmannHollweg a copy of Austria's threat to Russia to tear up the triple alliance negotiations after Russia's partial mobilization. Kaiser Wilhelm did everything for raee. The direct causes of the war were two. For neither Avas Kaiser Wilhelm guiltv. The first was the incredible folly of the Austrian foreign minister. Count Rerchtold. in refusing to negotiate with Russia direct after July 2s, and after Russia had mobilized the districts of Kieff. Odessa. Moscow and Kazan against Austria. Rethmann-Hollweg, in his zeal for imperative language to resume nego tiations and declared that otherwise Germany would not desert her. Rerchtold then climbed down and started direct negotiations with St. Petersburg. Russia had then mobilized all her army. Germany claims that Russia and Frame began the actual lighting. Russia by attacking the German patrol at Postken on Aug. 1 and France by dropping bombs from aeroplanes near Nuremberg on Aug. n m In this war beyond doubt, nil blood guiltiness lies on two powers. On Austria for her undue narshnes to ervia and also for IJcrchtold's pigheaded obstinacy and uedantry; on the Russian side for dishonesty in secretly mobilizing a full army at the moment when Czar Nicholas was imploring the kaiser to intervene for peace. 1 was told that the kaiser was even more angry with Austria than with KiuMa. 1 proof of fiermany's pacirtc intentions In the fact that the war ! rinds Germany in a different military position. Her fleet is dispersed and her allies' troops are caught in the ! Servian mouse trap. This alone proves that Kaiser Wilhelm and the German military party did not want war.

TO HELP EN Is Recruiting at Every Point and Stands Ready to Do Her Part, is Statement of Toronto Official. DETROIT. Hich.. Aug. 12. Canada Is recruiting in every central point and will do her war duty in every possible way, though public improvements must suffer from necessary econornv and business will have a period of stagnation, was the statement yesterday of Dr. J, (. Reaume, minister of public works, in the Ontario cabinet, who has been at a special meeting to review the war situation held In Toronto. "Everywhere the regular army is being fitted out to go to the front whenever the call comes from England." said Dr. Reaume. "The militia and volunteers will probably be held for coast defense. Never before has Canada been as united as at the present time. Had England undertaken the war alone some of the French might have been discontented at the thought of fighting England's battles, but with England and France lighting side by side on the continent, we find French and English parading arm in arm through Canadian cities, each outdoing the other in honor to both countric s. "Canada will suffer in arioiis ways as a result of the war. Already I have canceled contracts for public improvements to the extent of $230,000 that were authorized by the last parliament and other departments will be forced to economize in any way they can. "This will mean tho unemployment of many whom the government would otherwise have employed and will keep money out of circulation. In addition to this Canada depends largely on London for financial assistance. and this will of neeersity he withheld. Therefore Canada may expect industrial stagnation while the war lasts." AMERICAN YARDS CAN SUPPLY SHIPS Within n Year's Time Could be Able to Turn Out .Million in (iross Tonnase. NEW YORK. Aug. 12. Shipbuilding concerns in the Unite! States could turn out within one year from the start of the hostilities in Kurope more than 1,000.000 gross tonnage in es?els that could be need In transAtlantic service, according to a statement given out yesterday at the oflices of the American beau of shipping. This would be approximately one-half of the total tonnage in which financial Interests in this country hold stocl--in foreign countries. Reports received from all the ship constructing plants on the Atlantic seaboard show that nearly 100 average sized ocean going steamships could be built In the yards stretching from Maine to Virginia. They could be completed within 12 months from the time of making contract and would give such an impetus to American shipping as never has been known. Many concerns on the Atlantic seaboard have a capacity for ship? of 21.000 gross tonnage, irrespective of the work on the immense war vessels in the different yards. A great network of shipbuilding concerns lies from New England to the Virginia shores, and some of them have produced the largest commercial steamships that have been constructed in this coun-i try. notably the Dakota and the Min-1 resota, each of L'V.TIS gross ton".' which were designed for the Great! Northern Steamship company, owned ' by James J. Hill. , LITTLE IMPORTANT NEWS IS GIVEN OUT Movement of Hritlsh Troops U Kept i Sevrot Think Iacge Still Holds Out. LONDON, Aug. 12. The otticial press bureau announces at this period no news of hostilities of any importance can be expected. Movements of the Hritish army or those of cooperating nations cannot be divulged and over the proceedings of fhe enemy lie the fog of war. There is good reason to believe that the mass of German troops on western frontier are distributed between Thonville and Liege and that Lorraine is held comparatively lightly. Further to the south there is every indication that Austrian troops have entered Alsace. It is believed that the forts of Liege are still unhtken. AUSTRIAN'S AUK OKDFRKR TO MvAYK F RAN UK AT ONCE.

PRICES ON SILKS MAY BE BOOSTED Dealers Dorian That Supply of Haw Material AVill lo Exhausted Soon. NOV YOIIK. Aug. 12. Dyed silk goods probably will increase considerably In price because of the war. according to manufacturers in Paterson, N. J., centre of the silk manufacturing trade. These dealers declare the supply of raw ?ilk for manufacture now in hand will keep mills running from six weeks to two months, and that if new supplies are not found by that time the industry will lie hard hit. Olav Hers of the Imhoff-rerg Silk Dyeing eompan.v, said: "Silk dyeing stuffs come for the most part from Germany. Potato starch ordinarily costs three or four cents a pound, and is now costing 12 cents and is hard to get. The same is true of bichloride of tin. which tomes from India." John Grossgeba tier, vice president of the Columbia Ribbon company: "Spot silk- that is the supply ready for market is high, hut the silk for future delivery Is not high. There is no great shortage on the raw material now. but the dyeing materials have lumped three or four times in price." Julius Rrandes said: "We are not laying off men. Our supply will last nearly two months and we shall keep going with full force. Our raw material comes partly from Japan." Frank Frost said: "The raw material from Japan usually is shipped through the Suez canal and by Oerman ships. It may now be necessary to ship across the Pacific and there are only three companies which handle silk material on that route. We have enough raw silk to last about eight weeks."

U-r-Di rectors of the Xew York, New Haven and i Hartford railroad Tuesday capitulated to the government. As a result the civil suit for the breaking up of the system, for the divorce of the lloston and Maine and for the giving up of the steamship and trolley lines will not be brought to trial. There will, instead, be a "peaceful dissolution." The capitulation was so complete that the directors assented to stiff er terms than those that hud originally been laid down by Atty. Gen. Mclleynolds. Refusal to accept these terms on July 2 3 forced the rilins of ihe suit, which was on so broad a basis and carried such sweeping charges of violation of the law that Tuesday's development began at once I to be looked forward to. Notwithstanding the agreement that will bring- the civil suit to an end, it was announced in Washington Tuesday night that the criminal prosecution of directors responsible for the misdeeds committed in the name of the Xew Haven will not be affected.
