Indignation in France

Indignation IN France
PARIS, August 1.-The deep in
dignation caused in France by Ger
manys methods in beginning the
war is voiced by the Temps, which
says:
up to the last moment the
French and Russian governments
had given Germany credit for acting
in good faith: these no longer doubt
that it is in ambush. Russians,
Frenchmen and Englishmen must
stand united against. the powers of
brigandage, which have just been
unmasked
The British government yesterday
informed the German ambassador
that England could not remain neut-
raj. We did not desire this war, but
since it is forced upon us, with good
heart we will wage it. For forty
years Germany has prowled around
us, with the constant idea of striking
a. blow with the minimum risk, but
by prolonging the menace ishe taught
US our lesson.
Germany attacks us now at an
hour when all our material and NOR
Eal forces stand in united array
against her.

people with magnificent union
hurls itself to the fray as single
man."
The lobby of the chamber of depu-
cd
bers, many in uniform, all eagerly
discussing the crisis. All agreed
without distinction of party to vote

government will ask for the defense

aggressive attitude of Germany which

All museums and galleries in Paris
have been closed and the various
staffs have gone to war.
All possible measures have been
taken to ensure Paris will not lack
for food. Special trains have been
reserved for the transportation of
foodstuffs, particularly milk. In the
event Of the home supply becoming
inadequate a decree suspending the
prohibition on the importation of for
eign fresh meat will appear in the
official gazette tomorrow, thus as
surfing large supplies from Argentina
and other parts Of the world, in the

tary funeral services viii be held for
rear admiral Alfred T. Mahan, U. s. n,
retired, who died Tuesday. He had ex-
pressed a wish that there should be no
military Domp or any honorary pail
bearers. The funeral will be held this
evening and interment will be made at
Quogue, Long Island.
Rear admiral Mahan was accredited
with being the greatest Of modern
writer's on naval strategy, but ceased
his writings on the present war when
president Wilson issued instructions
urging army and navy officers to de-
sist from anything resembling partisan
discussion of the struggle in Europe.
It is said emperor William, of Ger
many, was greatly influenced by ad-
miral Mahan's earlier writings. London
newspapers today state that every ma
ton in the world began to profit By
his teachings soon after the publica-
tion Of his book on sea power, issued
