Russian Aim

LONDON, Aug. THE military eX-
pert of the London Times discusses
he German-Austro-R Russian military
situation today as follows:
"On Germany's eastern frontier
Russian armies are mobilizing more
apidly than was at first expected.
twenty days from last Sunday were
allowed before the aggressive advance
AN begin but the Russian armies are
Working we'll. and the main lines are

IF this rate can be kept up the

concentrating behind the Vistula, will

The Russian plan Of campaign but as
Berlin is the center of gravity 1t is

CRUISERS GOEBEN AND BRESLAU SUNK IN
BATTLE WITH BRITISH IN MEDITERRANEAN
Prince Fred'k
And Kaiser Mix

PARIS. Aug. IA graphic story
of how Germany came to be plunged
into a great war with all Europe
reached Paris Thursday. The re-
sponsibility for Germany's position
rests on the shoulders of the b. llicose
crown prince and not on the kaiser
himself.
While the emperor was cruising in
Norwegian waters the crown prince,
cooperating heartily with the mill
tary party, threw himself into pre-
pairing the way for a declaration Of
war upon Russia.
When the kaiser arrived in Berlin
the militarists headed by the crown
prince, had gone too far for the
ruler TO draw back without COM
promising the nation.
The emperor's rage was terrible
and his quarrel with the crown prince
was so violent that he struck him,
finally becoming exhausted with fury.

NEWS OF GERMAN VICTORIES
MAY BE SUPPRESSED.

1t is fair TO point out that the
cutting of the German cable has
cut OF Germany from direct COM
municatiOn with the outside world.
Practically all of the news from
Europe in the past few days has
come from either London. Paris or
Brussels where the foes of Ger
many exercise strict censorship OF
all cable news. IL Il within the
power OF the cenSOrs 10 suppress
any and all news. The fact that
the London cables. since the Ger
man cables were cut, tell almost
solely English, German and Bel
gian victories must be taken to in
dicate that beyond doubt the Ger
mans have not been victorious i'm
some of their battles. There are
always two sides TO q story. When
the German side finally i told. it
may show that they have captured
many English merchant ships. have
inflicted damage To their foes i'm
naval battles, and it may contra
dict some OF the London cables
about the German losses at Liege.
