Now there are two dangers which we all as Americans have to avoid in talking of American effort. We are only heinniu. Our engagements with the enemy have been hardly more than skirmishes.

The M. A. Hanna Co., owner of the property, said Thursday niyht no accurate estimate could be made of the number of dead. Four hundred and fifty men were working in the mine when tlie explosion occurred. Fourteen ate known to have been killed, one body has been recovered, man.v are missing, and several injured. The majority of the miners employed at the Sliver mine were Austrian and Pinns. Aeordill.4 t' the owners, a i't'it of lUhtninif caused the blast, the If.htnin- struck wires connected with tlvnamite which had been placed by the shot tirers and the explosion of the blasts detonated boxes of the explosive which had not yet been temoved to a safe elistance.

Premier Lloyd leor.'ie said Thursday it was true the Americans were coming ami being brigaded with the allies, but thai it was on the distinct unders'antling that when men were obtained they should replace the Americans to enable the Americans to form their own divisions. That was the honorable undertaking upon which Pres't Wilson was prepared to send over a very large force to France, the premier continued, hence it was imperative "that we make a most drastic comb o'U in order to maintain our strength and prestige at the vital moment."

The Americans can feel about their army in I ranee that its arrival in its present numbers is otie of the i;reat achievements of military history: that the way it is taking hold has brought new hope and conlidence to our allies and that we are already a ical factor in the war. as no one expected we could U'coine ill this terrible and critical car. We have not fought in a ureal baltle. we have not taken any considerable part in a first-rate engagement, but we have done what was asketl of us and more, and at Scicheprey ami Cuiititfiiy ami In Ucllcau wornls, o have done it in a manner which has not escaped the attention or praise of llritish and I'rench on leers, who at this tune in the war are not ovcr-casily pleased. As it flow stands, our troops are put into active service In some fashion cn the front for one inonlli after lliej anhe in TuroK.

I up almost intlcf inilt-1 . and this

means that we are adding to ' I'ocirs arm) at the rate of Hi (German divisions each month. This contribution, moreover. Is equal to the strength of the annual increment to the I'rench army coming from the new das., of recruits. It i neailv half as large as the income (icrinany draws from each of her classes. We are going to have surprises and disappointments, sad losses and Inescapable failure. Hut it is the universal testimony of all who return from I ranee that our joung officers and our oung soldiers learn promptly, learn willingly and are mastering tlie great lessons with a succcs which earns and deserves general commendation. We already have reason to be proud of our army in I'ranec. It is already a fact and a factor in this supreme crisis of allied fortunes. If it has not jet restored the balance of numleis In t ween the enemy and Loch it will do it lefore the campaign is over. It Is a ear since one battalion of American troop-, struggled to keep their ranks- in their march through Paris. a )ear since they stood in the held of the invalids, siirrtuindetl !i) a mob of t heeriiig Parisians, who saw hi this slight force the pledge of a real ft 1 rev which was to come. And we have come. Our new tnxips are not the match for Oerinan veterans, nor in au)thing hut courage the equals of the mcu of Potain and Ilaig who have stood fat for four cars. It i no time to lxast or to exaggerate, so far our achievement has been solid rather than brilliant, but it is an achievement which will be rcmemtcred foiv ever when the victory is won. We we have our first million of fighting men in Irancc and 0 shall have them toward the end or this campaign the (icrman, if he has not won the war Ix'vond all question. Mill have lost it lejond recovery, for a million this )car means two next, and a ostHncmcnt of (erman decision to neu ear means an adjournment without date. And in defeating the German hid for decision in the next two months. I'och can Ik counted upon to do. no Ics-. than half a million Americans are read) to tlo their share. We are in Picaitly. hampagne, ltriaiue ami Alsace now. On ihe Iin.- ami in Ihe fight our fust divisions have proved their mettle ami won I heir .iiii-; we can )x proud without boa-ting and grateful without setting iimii their scrv itv a value which our own soldier- are ihe lir-f In reject.
