In African JunaIes.

The African jungles seem to be the
field Of operation for many motion
picture producers at the present time,
the object being to photograph the
wild beasts in their lair and build
the story of the play around the many
incidents. Producers have concluded
that more thrilling effect can be pro-
duced by the pictures when they Wis.
ualize the animals as innocent partici-
pants In the plays instead of training
them to appear as prescribed by tbs
scenario. The latest announcement
made of wild animal picture comes
from George Kleine, stating that
the Italian manufacturers have com

central Africa, using the jungle beasts
instead Of trained animals. This com

SUIT AGAINST

Bill to Completely Dismember
Big Corporation.
CRIMINAL SUITS TO FOLLOW
Nation Declares Company Earns Abo1
81 Per Cent. OF Gross Freight
Revenue In New
England.
CRIMINAL SUITS TO FOLLOW

New York Under orders of Presi-
dent Wilson and Attorney-Ge Nc
Reynolds, a Sherman law antitrust
suit to dissolve the New Haven Rail-
road, trolley and steamship combina-
tion in New England was filed here,
The combination was scathingiy
scored as combination in restraint
of trade and commerce"
The bill charges that the New
Haven has acquired control Of nine
railroad systems, % boat lines and
1900 miles of trolley lines. It charges
that the New Haven earns about 81
per cent. of the gross freight revenue
and about 95 per cent. of the gross
passenger revenues of all New Eng
land railroads.
Asks Separation OF All Roads.
The Government asks that the con-
tract, combinations and conspiracies in
restraint of trade and commerce. to-
gether with the attempts to mo-
nopolize, be declared in violation Of
the Sherman antitrust law. 1t asks
for the separation of all the railroad.
steamboat and trolley lines, and for
the breaking up Of the control of
steamboat lines through the naviga-
ton company.
| It is further asked that the Court
declare the acquisition of the Boston
and Maine stock by the New Haven
illegal, and that the New Haven COM
j pany and the Boston Railroad Hold
ing Company be directed to sell all the
stocks and bonds held by them in the
Boston and Maine and its leased lines.
Finally the Government prays that
all of the sales necessary to the break
ing up of the alleged monopoly be
made under the supervision and direc-
ton of the Court to persons not stock
holders or agents. or otherwise under
the control or influence of the New
Haven company.
It is charged in the suit that in ac-
quiring railroad, trolley and steam
ship lines necessary to traffic mo-
nopoly complicated and elusive meth
DDS have been resorted to in order to
conceal the real character of the trans
actions.
/ The suit was filed by H. Snowden

the Southern district of New York.
1t bears the signatures Of Attorney.
General McReynolds; G. Carroll Todd.
assistant General; T. w.
Gregory and Frank M. Swacker, spe-

ment of Justice is now preparing

eral grand jury in New York when il
asks criminal indictment of New

Hurting the Saloons.

Frank Lyon, the portly character
actor, was deeply touched the other
day when approached by a ragged
and hungry looking beggar who
pleaded for dime. Lyon dug down
into the depths Of his capacioua
pocket and discovered a dime, which
he placed in the hands of the beggar,
Just as matter of curiosity, he kept
his eyes on the man as he strolled
away, and to his surprise the beggar
headed straight for moving picture
theater. WELL" remarked the as
founded Lyon, II have often heard
that motion pictures were hurting the
saloons, but I never knew that the
effect was as serious as that"

London. Sundays developments
appear to furnish new proofs that
Austria is fully determined to make
war on Servia, and the possibilities Of
D general European war seem greater
than have ever confronted the pres
emit generation.
The SeTvian reply to the Austro-
Hungarian ultimatum was an accept
Rnce of almost all the imperious de-
mands, except that Austrian officials
shall participate in the investigation
and fix the responsibility for the anti
Austrian propaganda.
Servia proposed an appeal to the
powers at The Hague for the settle
ment of that feature Notwithstand-
ing this humiliating surrender, which
was more than Europe expected of
the proud little nation, the Austrian
Government today gave the Servian
Minister his passports, which may be
construed as a virtual declaration Of
war
Austria committed an act of war by
arresting the chief of the Servian gem
eral staff, General Putnik, near Buda-
pest, but he was soon released by the
Emperor's direct command.
No Formal Declaration.
A formal declaration Of war is not
expected, because Servia is not a
party to The Hague convention, which
requires this. The suspension of all
Parliamentary and judicial institu-
tions has been decreed in Austria, and
an ironclad censorship has drawn q

ing there, except what the Govern.
ment wants the world to know.
Even now the Austrian armies may
be closing in upon Servia and launch
ing sudden blow. as Japan did when
she sent her feet against the Russian
ships without warning.
While Austria announces q partial
mobilization" the Austrian Ambas
sador at London has issued signi
ficant notice to all Austrians liable
for military service to remain home.
The only possibility of averting wal
at the eleventh hour which Austria
recognizes is that Servia shall recon
slider her reply to the Austrian note
and bow to all the demands. Even
then Austria proposes to exact pay
ment for all her expenses in connec
ton with her military measures.

EDITORIALS in FILMS
PATRONS WILLING 70 Be TAU oHT
RY WAY or SCREEN.
Pictures That Tell Story Solely TO-
the Purpose Of Driving Home
Moral Are at Prevent Much
Too Scarce.

The motion picture has adopted
many guises in its search for the
blinking dimes. 1t has robbed the
stage Of It's plays and idols, furnished
an efficient tool to the teachers Of
geography and natural history, out
slapsticked the comic supplements in
the animated cartoons, and run the
news columns a close race for interest
with its news pictorials. 1t now re-
mains for the newest type Of picture
to be taken UP more universally, and
the editorial writer will be able to see
a rival on the screen. Pictures tell
ing story solely for the purpose Of
driving home certain moral are at
present scarce, but there Is every in
dication that they will become more
and more popular, for the picture pa
tron has been found perfectly willing
to be taught lesson by way Of the
screen. The American Bankers as
sociation, the National Safety First
societies, and the crusaders for fire
prevention are among the organiza-
tions who have found these film edi-
torials" most useful.
Just as there were sermons in
stones" a long time ago, SO there were
editorials in films back in the early
days of pictures, but the helter-skel-
ter march Of progress In new art
drove along other avenues and the
film editorial was allowed to Ian
guish. David w. Griffith was prob
ably the first to produce pictures Of
this type and It was Frank Woods,
NThe spectator" who christened them
film editorials" Director Grifith's
production were In thousand foot
lengths and told THE Story of
Wheat" 1.-THE Story of Coal' and so
on with many other industries. The
reels all followed the same general
tone of treatment, and The Story of
Wheat" may be taken as an example.
This tale opened on western plains,
with scenes OF the harvest in the
wheat fields Of Kansas. Then to the
mills, and on to the bake-shops Of the
cities and into the homes of rich and
POOR the camera followed from the
yellow kernel to the loaf Of bread
All this was interesting enough, but 1t
was mainly intended as sugar-coating,
the. producers moral was reserved for
the last. With swirl the scenes
swung to the wheat pit. and an at
tempt to corner the market The les
son was driven home in the contrast
between the idyllic beauty of the
early views and the greed and strife
81 the financiers, followed by the uni
versal suffering attendant upon sue
cessful corner. It was film editorial
with q punch"
Il liked to work on those pictures"
said Mr.. Grifhth to a writer in the
Dramatic Mirror, s'and some day !
hope to get back to them and do
some really big things, for think that
some OF the greatest work of the mo-
ton picture is to be done along those
lines. Think of the value of motion
pictures OF this kind to political
party with a big issue before the
voters. The perfect motion picture
editorial will take its place in the
making OF history along with the
press and stage"
