WAR WILL COST 70 BILLIONS
Estimate Made By NikoIa Tesla of
 the Terrible Conflict.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

 New. York.-Taking issue with other statisticians more moderate in their estimates, Nikola Tesla, the famous inventor of electrical contrivances, says the total cost of the general war now going on probably will not be les than $70,00O,000, 0,000.
 ''The present war may easily in volve 20,000,000 combatants," said MT. Tesla. q have seen an estimate of a total cost of $50,0000 000 a day. This is too low. The number of those dis abled through wounds and disease was recently placed at 500,000 This, also is too moderate. It would be less than two and one half per cent and it must be remembered that in the most re- cent great war preceding this, the Balkan struggle, the casualties were ten times greater, or 25 per cent.
 Observe that it is reported Belgium lost $300,000,000 in two weeks fight ing while there were no large cities in the path of the Germans
 "The difficulty with most statisti- clans of war losses is that they simply consider the cost of military opera tions. This is small fraction of the war waste"

CHARGES
 IF BARBARIT|ES
THEY SAY THAT TIME FOR WAR WITH GLOVES ON HAS
 PASSED"

London.-A dispatch to the Reuter- an official statement:
 Owing to strategical considerations 1t has been impossible to cooperate earlier with the Belgian army in the defense of their country, but the en- agreements which we have undertaken are only the more solemn and our CO., operation will be still closer and will be pursued with extreme energy.
 "In contrast with the considerate treatment accorded German prison CTS, it has been established that the enemy considerers as nonexistent both international conventions and the most ancient traditions of right and military order. We are suffering veritable fn- vasion of barbarians We wish. in- deed, to remain civilized, and will do so till the end, despite this return to savagerySon the part of nation which has pretonded to be an arbiter of eivi is innossihlo to preserve toward our presoaae adversa- ries the chiyalrous generosity which until now has been the rule between soldiers
 Time for war with gloves on has passed. The enemies with whom we exchanged at Fontenoy courteous words before opening fire have become today our faithful and useful allies. We have before us unbridled savages. We owe to them only the strict obser- vance of the rules of humanity and the laws of war
 The minister of war has issued strict instructions that German pris- oners, officers as well as soldiers, are not to be treated with the considera- tion and favor which should be re- served for our own men. Life is as- sured, naturally, but that is all we owe them"

NJ EVIDENCES
 IF A CONSPIRACY
INVESTIGATION OF INCREASED PRICES YIELDS NOTHING
 IN NEW YOhK.
NO UNUSUAL RISE IS FOUND
TlreIiness or the Inquiry, However, May Have Prevented General
 Advance in Prices.

New York.-The federal inquiry in- to the higher cost of food stuffs since the war began in Europe has not de- veloDed that the increases were un- warranted, according to Roger B. Wood, United States assistant dis trict attorney, in charge of the in- yestigation.
 No evidence of conspiracy to force up the price of food has been dis closed which would warrant criminal action being instituted by the gov ernment," MT. Wood said.
 Generally speaking, there has been no unusual rise in the price of food stuffs There have been increases in few commodities, but some of these have become dearer because of na- tural causes.
 T will admit that the timeliness of our inquiry might have arrested a gen eral upward movement of prices, due to the greed of wholesalers and re- tailers."

IN NORWAY WHEN
 THE CRISIS AROSE
GERMAN KAISER SoJOURNlNG THERE PEACEFULLY, NOT
 EXPECTING WAR.

Ghristiania.- the kaiser is most to blame for the worldwide war or not, it is fact that he was so- journing peacefully in a Norwegian fjord when the crisis arose.
 The story of how he received the news that great events were impend- ing was told here by one of the pilots who was aboard the HohenzoIIern, the Prussian royal yacht, at the time.
 The yacht was at Balholm, one one of the most picturesque of the long, deep arms of the sea pentrating the coast, Saturday, July "A.
 The day before, the kaiser had been fishing for trout and had been very successful. He had ordered the trout cooked as part of a banquet which he was giving to 200 persons, mostly Nor wegian friends.
 It was arranged that the yacht and the squadron of 40 war vessels which had been mane,Wering in the vicinity ,..ss5 ,....a5;7'2 23 : ;. eaavass.y. Iulv 9, at sunrise. |.
 The kaiser shook hands 6he pilots as they came aboard abC,d noon Saturday. He was in excellent spirits and said We who pretend to know our way about the seas would really be helpless without you"
 At this moment an officer approach ed. He had a wireless message in his hand, which he presented to his sovereign with a deep obeisance.
 The kaiser scanned the contents and instantly his face became very grave. He turned to high naval Of ficer and handed the message to him. The officer read and then appeared as if struck dumb.
 The kaiser took the message from , the officer, wrote a reply on the back, and handed the slip to the messenger, saying loudly to the officer: Every thing is moving"
 The kaiser hastened to his saloon and his suite followed Banquet was forgotten. Orders were given for , leaving instantly. The kaiser began a series of conferences with his of. fieers."
 What he meant by Everything is moving" is matter of conjecture. He may have simply expressed sur prise at the rate with which an un- expected situation was confronting him.
 One the other hand, his words may be taken to equal Everything is going along as arranged"

AVIATOR CORD AND WIRE.
The arrival of the seroplane

The arrival Of the aeroplane has
given US a new industry, or rather a
modification of an old one, namely,
that of manufacturing aviator cord
and aviator wire. The Roeblings
have devised o special kind of wire
aviator cord to be used for stays on
aeroplanfs. The cord consists OF a
number of fine wires of great
strength stranded together. The
strength of the different sizes runs
approximately from 1000 to 1900
pounds. For steering gear more
flexible cord is provided, composed
Of six strands of seven wires each,
with a center of either cotton or
wire. The aviator wire differs from
aviator cord in that it consists of a
single wire instead of a number of
wires twisted together. The wire
is made in IL sizes, with a breaking
strength that varies from 1000
pounds to 175.-Scientifc American.
