British Foreign Office Issues a Bulletin Showing the Germans
 Commenced Activity Without Knowledge of Foreign Offices

LONDON, Aug. 27.-The British foreign office issued in the form of a white paper. tonight the report of Sir William Goschen, former ambass- ador 10 Berlin, on the rupture of dip lomatic relations with Germany. The report is dated August and says that in accordance with instructions of August 4 from Sir Edward Grey secretary of state for foreign affairs the ambassador called on the German secretary of state Gottlieb Von Ja- gow He inquired whether Germany would refrain from violating Belgian neutrality
 Herr Von Jagow' the report con tinues, "at once replied that he was to say his answer must be No as in consequence of the German troops having crossed the frontier that morn ing, Belgian neutrality had already been violated. Jagow again went in- to reasons why the imperial govern ment had been obliged to take this step namely that they had to ad- vance on France by the quickest and easiest way, so as to be able to get well ahead with operations and en, deavor to strike some decisive blow as early as possible.
 "It was a matter Of life or death for them, as if they had gone by southern route, they could not have hoped, in view of the paucity of roads and the strength of the fortresses to have gone through without formida ble opposition entailing great loss of time.
 This loss Of time would mean time gained by the Russians for bringing up their troops to the German iron tier Rapidity of action was tho great German asset while that oI Russia was an inexhaustible supply of troops'

LONDON, (Frlday) Aug. 2s.-The conflict of millions appears at last to be in progress Even such news as the sinking of the German Steamer Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse pales be- side the titanic battle evidenced by Tribute Joffre, the French eamman. der.in-ehief, to the British arms, bringing the realization that the al- lies are Sighting to block the road to Paris with the Germans hardly far ther away than New York from Phila' delphia. In the meantime the Rus. sians are drawing nearer Berlin with a mighty army.
 Not even during the first great struggle between Europe and Asia on the far Manchurian islands was such an enormous battle fought in such impenetrable silence as far as con. cerns the outer world.
 Only the vaguest generalities are given the people of Great Britain and France by their respective govern, ments. Probably the German people know little more of what their armies are accomplishing. The British pub, lie only knows a battle is raging.
 PARIS, Aug 27.-It Is officially an nounced this city is preparing for a possible seize. The matter was dis cussed by the new minister of war Alexandria Minerand, with the sub ardinates in his department, and steps will be taken to determine the exact measures necessary to place the city in a state to withstand at tack or invasion.
 Millerand will meet with other of ficials of the war office every morn ing for the consideration of develop ments and every possible phase in connection with the entrenchment of a camp such as the capital will be come.
 The government is taking the pre- caution to send most of the wounded to southern and western France and few to Paris. Refugees from Bel gium and northern France are moi permitted to remain here.
 This city is simply a way station toward southern and western towns Americans and other foreigners ir the capital are beginning to under stand that their presence in the city will not be desirable.

Best of Work on Delaware

Representative j. Hampton Moore has
conferred with War Department officials
with reference to the dredging of the Del
ware River and learned that the work on
the the 35-foot channel was progressing
as we'll as could be expected. A report
from Colonel linn, in charge of the Phil
adelphia distrlcs, dealing with the meth
cd of dredging was discussed. "There
has been some complaint that much of
the dredged material finds its way back
into the channel and aids in the forma-
ever, indicates thas the same methods
are being pursued that have been used
since the 35-foot project commenced, and
that they are the best and most econom-
ical methods known. 1t appears that
the actual cost of dredging has been re-
duced to between one and two cents per
cubic yard, and that the methods have
been studied and adopted elsewhere, as
for instance, on the Savannah River"
Mr.. Moore said that Chief of Engineers
Kingman holds that the Delaware River
dredging is being done i'll a nan
ner which promises effective results
quicker than any other method known
considering the length and character of
the river. It is pointed out that it
would be practically impossible to COM
plete the 35-ioot channel i'll a lifetime if
the dredged material from i'll front OF
Philadelphia, for instance, had to be car
ried 90 miles to deep water. On the
other hand, it is declared, by engineers,
that the deposits Of material in low places
along the river banks retain all the solid
matter, and permit the escape only of
such material as can be carried off by the
tides. 1t is further contended that most
of the sitting up Of the river is due to the
action of the tides in dislodging solid
material along the banks.

A BANKING REVOLUTION
The New Federal Reserve Act Evokes
Favorable and World Wide
Attention

"The shot that was heard around the
world" fired at Lexington, April 10,
l776, by the farmers of Massachusetts,
seems to have found a second, after a
century and a half, in the new Federal
Bank Bill, if we may trust the atten-
ton the bill has received abroad. We
have at hand hi elaborate German
review of the bill by DR.. Richard Haus-
er, Of the Deutsche Bank, of Berlin, Of
which we are glad to give the sub
stance.
DR.. Hauser calls attention to the fact
that the American undertaking is one
of the greatest that has ever been at
tempted in The realm of banking. The
English reform of Sir Robert Peel i'll
1874 was limited to the question of the
currency; and the German reform of
1876 sought only an extension OF the
business of the Prussian Bank over the
whole county. In no instance has
such an aggregation of capital had
open to it such new forms of opportun-
ity; in none have such radical changes
been made in the organization and
practice of many thousands of credit
banks as in this American legislation.
The wide reaching financial scope given
to the new reserve banks cannot fail at
once to exercise indirectly a great iniu-
ence on the business world.
From all this it will appear that our
new American legislation, though it is
mainly concerned with the situation at
home, is recognized rs being of the
widest International importance. But
while it is looked upon as revolutionary
here, and will need to be watched ami
guarded with continual care, and will
doubtless be subjected to more or less
important change, as experience proves
the need, its influence abroad will be
felt gradually, aud that along lines of a
more natural evolution. Whatever,
therefore, its immediate effect may
prove to be at home, it will, as a whole
tend to a drawing into closer connec-
ton of the markets of the world, and
to increasing their stability and theil
general exemption from ayoidable
crises; a contribution of no smell sig
~nifcance to business everywhere.-The
Financial Chronicle.

Public Business Is Public

, Public officials who do not think the
public is entitled to know what they are
doing are invited to read this para
graph by Charles w. Eliot In the July
Delineator:
"Another new and effective bulwark
of the State is to be found in the ex-
IRENE publicity with which all Amer
lean activities are carried on. Many
people are in the habit of complaining
bitterly of the intrusion of the news
paper reporter into every nook and
II Of the State, and eve into the
privacy of the home; but liz this ex-
treme publicity is to be found a new
means of social, industrial and govern
mental reform and progress. For al
most all social, industrial and political
evils publicity gives the best hope OF
reasonable remedy. 1t makes crime
and political corruption more difficult
and far less attractive. No good cause
ever suffered from publicity; no bad
cause but instinctively avoids it. In
cases OF real industrial grievances OF
expressions, publicity would be by fal
the quickest and surest cure"
