THE HORROR OF TT.

Some reports of the battle on the
Marne give the losses of the allies rs
$4,000 and Of the Germans as 100.-
900.
How much longer" says the New
York Evening Post for September FL,
'can the human conscience stand the
horrible carnage now going on in Eu-
rope without revolving against It? AL
ready the estimate OF the losses in the
900 upward. Such items as the GEN.
sorship passes for publication hint at
a slaughter of unequalled magnitude.
Of wounded lying uncared for by the
tens of thousands, Of rivers gorged
with dead, Of a beautiful country raw
aged by the frs of friend and foe
alike. Not since their retreat from
Belgium began have the French dared
to give out a casualty list, while the
British have ceased to give any total
Of losses since the campaign changed
in favor of the allies. We only know
on the Marne, far greater for the al
lies than during their defensive CAM
paign. Now they are hurting their
troops against breastworks defended
by artillery, which, the allies confess.
is beyond anything in its destructive.
ness
The Times correspondent says the
battlefield of the Marne was a picture
Of death and devastation-long lines
of newly broken earth marking the
burial trenches. some Of them 150
yards long. with the dead placed in
them shoulder to shoulder and often
In layers. What the sufferinss Of the
wounded must be is beyond imagina.
ton. Noel Buxton's horrible picture
Of the wounded in the Balkan wars
with its tale Of ghastly mutiliations
and foul wounds, of the agonized suf-
ferinss Of thousands of men with
limbs shot to pieces or eyes shot out
gives some idea Of the horror and
makes US sicken at the thought Of the
hideous slaughter now going on.
perhaps it is because Of the CEN
sorship that the unlocking world Is
not in greater revolt against the bru-
tall wicked, indefensible savasery of 1t
ALL The world shuddered over San
Francisco, Messina. st. Pierre; it
thrilled to the horror and the heroism
in the loss Of the Titanic. Somehow
or other 1t fails. whether through
numbness or inability. to articulate
the anguish 1t must feel, to react to
the magnitude of the destruction of
human life now going on in Europe.
If we could see and hear the truth Of
it all, just as it is; II we could realize
in some measure the suffering Of the
non-combatants alone, the public
opinion Of the rest of the civilized
world would, we believe, compel the
grounding Of arms before, as seems
likely today, It is brought about by
the exhaustion Of the belligerent ma
tions."

OF them even have acquired the habit OF

oil representatives, here are waiting with
interest for news OF the experiences Of
this party In attempting 10 penetrate into
the TampiCu district.
This was the summary ~ Admiral Rad
gers report given out at the Navy De-
partment
He reports that W II. Lynne repre-
senting Texas company. which has large
OH properties at Panuco. near Tampico. has
arrived at Vera Cruz aboard the tug
Pan American. His tug had cleared from
Fort Arthur FOR Tampico. hut on arriving
on Panuco River he found that fighting
was going on IN the vicinity OF Tampico
and that IL would he decidedly unsafe for
a tug 10 enter the river or for his employ
ees to attempt to return to work. He
accordingly abandoned any attempt to
reach Tampico.
Admiral Badger says that Mr. Lynne
reports that all Americans have aban-
doned their oil property in the vicinity
OF the Texas Company's we'll. leaving
MeAicans in charge. and that so far as
he knows no Americans have been able
to return 10 their property. Mr. Lynne
was told that Mr. Walker of the Huasteca
company was turned back at ramplco
and could not get out TO Caslano.
Mr.. Lynne came TO Vera Cruz after
/ being unable 10 go TO Tampico for the

individuals instead OF groups OF from
so to 500 each.
The refugees arrive invariably in a
most excited and even hysterical state.
II IL no wonder. when one learns OF the
threats to which practically all have been
subjected. and In many cases Of their ac-
tual imprisonment and suffering. that they
show great agitation upon reaching alb
solute safety at Vera Cruz. But then
fright rapidly wears of and their ideas
undergo a change.
From persons obsessed with the desire
to get out of the country as soon as
possible they become impressed with the
attractiveness OF the ships Of the United
States navy IN Vera Cruz harbor and
the presence on shore OF a force OF 5000
men. The Stars and Stripes Tying over
the public buildings OF Vera Cruz are
TO them the finest sight Of recent years.
Mexico suddenly takes on new as
pect. and they at once make IN their
minds they want TO stay, their Idea being
that the American forces are going 10
advance soon and that they can return
In the trail OF a victorious army.
Hence the great difficulty Admirals
Fletcher and Badger have experienced in
getting the refugees to board the steam
ers chartered by the Government to trans
port them to the United states without
expense TO themselves and. once there
