THE FIRST MISTAKE.

Reports of the campaign in Servia,
Bosnia Herzegovina, and adjacent
parts of Austria afford ground for
the suspicion THAI the first big mis-
take anybody made about this war
was made at st. Petersburg.
1t consisted in the assumption by
the Russian government that Scrvia
would need some help in her fight
with Austria.
If it could have been realized
then that Servia would he able, with
out assistance, 70 give such an ac-
count of herself as has been present
cd to date, there would have been no
ccrasion for Russia 20 NEEDLE. That
would have left Germany without
an excuse to mix; that would have
saved France, in turn, from erter-
ing; that would have obviated the
necessity for stirring up the Bel
gian hornets nest; that would have
left England free to remain neutral.
And Servia would have got away
with a lot more glory.

MERIDIAN HILL PARK
TO Be STARTED SOON
Plans Completed for Beautiful
Reservation Atop Sixteenth
Street Hill.

Work on what is designed to be the
most magnificent park in the United
States. to be located on the top of
Meridian Hill overlooking Washing
ton. will be started, within a few
weeks by the office of public build
ings and grounds.
Plans have been worked out under
the direction of Col w. w. Harts, and
they provide for landscape architec-
ture and gardening on a magnificent
scale. 1t will be a long time before
the park, as planned. can be COM
pleted. as it must of necessity be slow
Iy worked out. When completed, how
ever, il will vie with the worlds most
famed garden spot. The site in upper
Sixteenth street on the plot bounded
by Fifteenth. Sixteenth and w streets
and Florida avenue, is regarded as an
ideal one.
Advantage is to be taken of the
steep grade. and there will be few
changes in it.
The beauty and scope OF the plans
can be grasped only through the
drawing prepared. The top of the
hill will BE- extended on grade as far
south as possible. where a concrete
cliff will drop it to the lower level.
On top of this cliff will be a paved
plaza and walk, affOrding a view of
the city and the Potomac valley al
most to Alexandria, or as far as the
eye can reach.
In the center will be a big fountain
pouring water into pool From this
pool will run a continuous cascade of
rippling water TO the lower end of the
park, where il will flow into another
great pool flanked by two fountains and
forming the background for a staue
site.
The upper end of the park above the
cliff will be level. and will have double
driveway for carriages and automobiles
arched bv shade trees. These drive
ways converge upon circular drive.
the center of the circle affordiN park
raced down. both sides of the central
cascades. Square-trmmed linden trees
will afford borders and background
Down Sixteenth street will run con-
crete wall. apparently an architectural
feature for landscape effect. but In
reality a retaining wall. The main en-
trance for pedestrians will be located
in sixteenth street midway of the park.
on the other end of the cliff plaza semi
circular concrete stairs will run from
the upper to the lower level of the park.
This park will be located exactly On
the meridian of Washington, and from
this fact II derives its name. To many.
however. the hill has been known Tor
Years as sixteenth street hill.

ENGLAND IN EGYPT.

German and Austrian consuls
within the last few lays nave been

Deaf Mutes May Help
In Defense of France

PAkIS. Sept. 13.-With almost the en-

France at war, men who are deaf and

in III" national defense. The minister
of war has received letter from one Of
the offic"-s-of the mutes' organization,
i'm which these persons plead for an oD-
purtunitv to serve their country.
AS a matter OF fact, our intrmity is
more apparent than real" writes the pc
tltioner. The great ma jority Of us are
men Of good constitutions. healthy
vigorous and trained III athletics and
gymnastics. Many Of us are excellent

sight than on the hearing in this work
"However, We believe that we can rem

bearers of ambulance stretchers, or in

i'll offices or bakehouses; in the national
arms and munition factories: in the ma

are employed already. or any place
where the call to arms has caused many

The minister has taken the appeal
under consideration and expects to find

The generalShip that thirty-two
years ago almost at Il single stroke

The country AS i whole h,... IN
AMPLE supply of gold C meet its
obligations; hence their recommen-
daijon that the entire country con-
Il butte to god fund, aggrcgating
$15O,OOG,00
This gold will not be shipped at
once, but drawn upon as our cbli-
cations mature, TO make good the
balance remairing after our foreign
credits are applied. 1t may be that
only small part Of the $50, 100000
will ever be shipped. The chances
are that after our foreign creditors
find that we intend to scruDuluusly
keep our obligations they will choose
to have the obligations renewed in
stead of paid. Money is working
easier in London constantly, and the
discount rate is row lower there
than in New York. 1t wouldn't be
the first time that a creditor, after
finding that he could get his money,
had concluded hat he didn't want it.
Moreover, it is 20 be considered that
merchandise imports have now
fallen off heavily, while our grain
exports are very large.
The action of this committee
shows that the leading bankers of
the country are not alarmed over
the gold situation. They know that
under present conditions the people
of this country are not going to
buy either goods or securities
abroad in large quantities. The
bankers are in position to dis
courage any revival Of such activity;
they intend TO look after that in the
future, but they also intend to settle
up for past purchases without
quibbling. They consider that the
usefulness Of a gold reserve of
81 200, 900, 900 lies in the fact that it
enables us to meet an adverse trade
balance when it occurs. They
couhtess considered also that Just
at the moment when a new opror-
tunity has opened to us in inter-
national finance it would be very I'M
wise to adopt purely defensive
policy. We want right now to as
sure the whole world that this is
safe place to do its banking and
keep its ready cash. Did a bank
ever gain much new business at a
time when it was refusing to pay
deposits?
Incidentally, it may be remarked
that there seams to be good deal
of misapprehcnsion about the pre-
cautionary measures adopted in
London, Paris, and Berlin. Steps
have been taken at these capitals to
substitute paper money in the
circulation for gold, and to prevent
the latter from being drawn for
boarding. This is similar to our
own action in issuing additional
bank notes, thus enabling the banks
TO keep the gold certificates in their
reserves. Gold payments have been
made discretionary with all the
banks of issue aDroad in order to
give them control over the situation,
but it does not follow from this
that gold will not be released for
settlements when
20 maintain the practical
parity of their paper issues and to
support the national credit.
incidentally, it may also be re-
marked that the Federal reserve
system has had at the very n1ment
of its initiation 2 demonstration
that the banking field of the United
States cannot be divided into air
tight compartments. The Federal
reserve system must be operated as
practically one system.
