WAR CLOUD TURNS
OUT As RAINBOW
Threatened Moroccan Dis
sension Is Cleared Up.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald
Berlin, Aug. 19.-After the first burst of
fear that permeated Germany as re-
suit of the Morocco embrogiio, Teutonic
stolidity asserted itself and to-day the
land is waking UP to the fact that the
Kaiser and the diplomatic corps were
working hand-in-glove with the result
that Germany has succeeded fguratively
in twisting the tail OF France and Eng
land, and also heightening the strength
of the government party within her own
boundaries. .
In fact, what seemed at first a war
cloud of plackest hue has taken on a
serio-comic color that is amusing both
the supporters and enemies of < the
Kaiser. What foreshadowed a conflict
with the armies of Great Britain and
France has now settled down to a game
of diplomacy between Germany and the
latter with Germany in the place Of
yantage -. - -
: sThe German press, after the fffrst flush
of excitement. began to analyzec the
Kaiser's motive in sending the Panther
to Agadir and dissection ofsthe implied
threat uncovered a cunning that has
greatly raised the Kaiser in the estima-
ton Of the people.

ovERJoYED AT TROUBLES
Fear of War Over Morocco Al

Other Nations-Food Shortage
:. Results from "Tieht" Position

Berlin, Aug. 19.-With the German
pulse again beating with rhythmic pre-
cision, all fear of war allayed through
out the land, and diplomatic relations
with France on. the high road to a sue
cessful termination, the German press
and people are taking fresh interest in
the affairs of other nations-particularly
those of their much hated and feared
neighbor, england. .-
The affairs of this country are ever
of interest to Germans, for there is
mutual suspicion and dislike on both
sides Of the political fence. Therefore,
anything that tends to discomfort either
country is the subject of critical COM
ment and jeers from the other. Just
at present, the predicament in which the
British lion finds itself, because of a
series of labor disputes, leads to much
caustic comment from Germany.
Island Is Too "Tight.,
The German press, with much gusto.
reviews the labor troubles of its sister
monarchy and draws conclusions there
from that have a direct bearing upon
the firm, though eminently quiet stand OF
Great Britain in the Morocco contro-
versy. 1t points out that the tight
little island" as the English are fond
of calling their insular home, is really
so tight that the least disturbance in
Englands relation with q great power
would result in its jacket bursting and
the disintegration of an empire main

As proof of their assertion, they call
attention to the food shortage COCA
stoned by the seamen's strike, and, when
that had scarce become a matter of
history, the enormous advance In prices
that resulted from the dock handlers
walk-out.
The fact is,'' says an influential pa
per. that England is absolutely at the
mercy Of the first to attack her. Her
preservation lies in the entente cordaile.
Well may she look to arbitration trea-
ties, friendly diplomatic relations, and
the support of her neighbors, for were

Special Cable to The Washington Herald.
London. Aug Ito celebrate the CEN
tenary Of peace among English-speaking
peoples. as marked by the signing Of
the peace treaty between England and
America in 1915, an important scheme
for permanent memorial is being dis
cussed in London by representative men
of both nations. Andrew Carnegie is
chairman Of the American COMMITTEES,
with Col. Theodore Roosevelt as hon
orary chairman. and the governors of
forty-six States Of the Union as honorary
vice presidents.
The celebration Will take place in 1914
1b. and win most probably take the form
Of either O purchasing Sulgrave Manor,
Northamptonshire, the ancestral seat OF
the Washington family, as a lasting
memorial of the peace and a center OF
interest for all the Anglo-Saxon race, or
CD the building Of a bridge across the
Niagara Falls. connecting British and
American territory, and to be toll free
to citizens Of both nations. Possibly, IL
funds permit, both schemes may be real
lied, so that each country will possess a
peace memorial.
William B. Rowland chairman of the
international organization committee,
now in London, said to a reporter: "A
decision will be arrived at probably be-
fore the end of the year. We have ap-
preached the owner Of the Sulgrave
estate with a view to securing an option
on reasonable terms. ] think the idea
would be to devote the house to the
purpose Of a museum for the housing
Of objects and documents indicating the
close and peaceful relations between the
two countries, and to lay out the 200

Bridge Across Niagara.
''The proposed bridge across Niagara
Falls would be a grand connecting link
between the two shores. The new struc-
ture would be free to all passengers, and
as there are thousands Of British Wis
itors during the year this form of memo
rial would be of some benefit to them.
We shall seek to get in touch with the
English people who are willing to CO.
operate in the celebration, and II is likely
that a British committee will be formed
in connection with the larger project.
There will be a series of public gath
erings in America, England, Canada, and
Australia. An influential committee will
be organized in Canada and Australia
and probably In all the British colonies.
A conference of the interest will most
likely be convened in New York in the
autumn.
There has been no hostility along the
:. 900 miles Of American-Canadian border
during the last 100 years, so that the
celebration will assuredly evoke wide
spread interest. 1t has also been sug-
gested that history OF the period might
proftably be written for the special bene-
fit of school children in the various coun-
tries They would thus have an oppor-
tunity, which has never been afforded. OF

directly to a scene that occurred at the
wedding of Mile. Steinheil to NJ. del
Perugia at the Church OF st. John the

So anxious were the photographers to
secure good copy for their respective

BASEBALL PLAYERS, ATTENTION

All amateur ball players in Denver
who desire any information about the
Negro National Baseball League of
America, which has been organized

do well to see Lloyd Hall, as he is
one of the best in the Wst, and played
ball on the city league as catcher for
Lewis team and was also the back
stopping kid for the Rocky Mountain
Athletic Club team last year, and this
year we find that his name has been
placed on the eligible list with the
Chicago team, although he will prob
ably try out with the K C. Giants, as
they are in need Of good baseball
catchers. The organization of this
league will give young ball players all
over the country a chance to prove
what they could do in fast company
There were none of them better than
you at one time, and they pay good
salaries, so it is quite business.
Catcher Lloyd Hall is taking much

mended some of Denver's best play
ers to the big managers of the league
