The defeat of the Servians seems to
be utter and irrsparable. If any
thing can be inferred from the con-
fused and conflicting accounts of Sum
days battle, it is that the Servians
did not fight it all, the only actual re-
sistance made to the advance Of the
Turkish columns being from the Rus
sian volunteers, who fought with sing
ular bravery, and fell where they
fought. Whatever else may come of
the fateful struggla in Eastern Eu-
rope, Ssrvias destiny is settled. That
little State has fallen forever from its
position of semiindependence, and it
cannot even choose its future position,
because, unlike Montenegro, which it
far surpasses in population and re-
sources, it has proved itself incapable
of fighting for a position. Diplomacy
or battle will determine whether
Servia is to become dependent of
Turkey, of Austria Or cf Russia, but it
has decided against itself the question
of its own independence The apathy
and decentralization of the Servian
forces doubtless proceed from the
terrible distress they have labored
under for several weeks, but the con-
trast is a very vivid one with the elan,
enthusiasm and, indeed, braggadocio
spirit that marked the opening of the
campaign such short time ago.
OUR Imperial Cousin, William of
Germany, is developing system of
wise craftsmanship in the matter Of
keeping the nation out of scrapes and
looking ahead for a fair share of the
substantial rewards of peace. In his
speech to his Parliament yesterday
he made it known that the blood Of
the sons of fatherland would not be
invoked but to defend German inter-
ests and honor, and referring to the
depression of trade and industry in
Germany and throughout the world
indicated that the governments COM
mercial policy will be for the protec-
ton of German industry from the
prejudicial effects of one-sided Gus
toms regulations in other countries"
His majesty means business of the
reciprocal kind no doubt.

THE AMERICAN CYcLoPEDIA

of discovery in every department of knowl-
edge has made a new work of reference an
imperative want.
The movement of political affairs has
kept pace with the discoveries of science

trial and useful arts and the convenience
and reinemen of social life. Great wars
and consequent revolutions have occur ed,
involving national changes of peculiar mo-

which was at its height when the last vol

been ended, and new course of CONNER
