The German Advance.

Present indications are that the Ger
man movement toward France, checked
somewhat az the outset by the perhaps
unexpected resistance of the Belgians
at Liege. is now progressing, though
on doubtless slightly different basis
Through the veil of censorship come
bits of information TO denote first that
the Germans have moved around to the
north of Liege, occupying several
points between that city and Brussels,
apparently with the object of clearing
the way for large bodies of troops ad-
vancing toward Namur. Today's dis
patches indicate that matters are devel-
oping rapidly to the point Of a general
engagement between the allies add the
right wing OF the kaiser's army. Fur
thermore, there are signs that a large
German force IS massing on the from
tier between France and Luxembourg
Germany, with Metz as a base. Finally.
there is a considerable force, as yet
unmeasured, in southern Alsace in
touch with the French column which
last week took Altkirch. Muelhausen
and Kolmar and later fell back to the
rear of Muelhausen.
It would seem to be the strategic plan
Of the Germans to make their main ad-
vance in the center. through the
Moselle valley. This would bring them
Evening star., 1914-08-12

against the northern portion OF the
strong French line of fortifications
paralleling the German boundary, but
1t would have the advantage of greater
concentration than is possible at either
the northern or the southern end OF
the German line. Moreover. If such
movement could be successfully pressed
home into French territory it would
have the effect of dividing the French
forces But at the same time 1t would
leave the German column exposed TO
the danger of flank attacks from either
north or south, with the possibility OF
a severance of communications.
1t is impossible at this stage to ascer-
tain the exact numbers now in the field
on the two sides. One estimate places
the total assembled German force at
1000 men. with a French force OF
100000, an English force of 100000 and
a Belgian force of $4,000, a total of
650,0O0 allies. But these figures are
purely speculative and are in no sense
reliable. Perhaps not until the end OF
the war will 1t be possible to know the
real size of the respective armies. In
figuring on the prospect of the cam
paign it is to be borne in mind that the
present German movement is offensive,
and that in such a campaign there Is
need of a heavier force than that on
the defensive. Advancing into an
enemy's country. the kaiser must throw
against his opponents more men than
they can present to resist him, and
at the same time protect his rear by
a considerable percentage of active
troops Thus. if the allies should
finally mass 100000 men to resist the
German advance, it would probably be
necessary for the kaiser to have an
active force of. at the least, 1,250,000
to assure progress, all other considera-
tions being equal.

Antitrust PROGRESS.

The decision Of the federal court of St
Paul ordering the dissolution of the
harvester trust comedies in time with
the announcement that the New Haven
dissolution suit has been settled out of
court" Thus progress is being made
toward the readjustment of industrial
and transportation conditions to accord
with the law. The settlement of the New
Haven case. by agreement between the
government and the directors saves long
and expensive litigation and manifests a
desire on the part OF the responsible off,
cials to comply with the law as laid down
and insisted upon by the government. In
the case of the harvester trust there will
probably be an appeal and the Supreme
court of the United States will be called
upon for a final decision, so that many
months may pass before this matter is
settled.

Aqueduct Bridge Scored Again.

Once more an official recommendation
of the early replacement of the Aqueduct
bridge is placed on record. Maj Kutz. in
charge of the local rivers and harbors
work, in his annual statement of the con-
dtion of the bridge. urges that a new
structure be authorized and completed as
speedily as possible. He notes that dur
ing the past year the repairs to the piers
through the filling of cavities and flaws
in the foundations were nearly as extern
sve as those in the year previous and
much more extensive than those during
the two years prior to that period. Thus
it is evident that. generally speaking. the
deterioration ofsthe bridge is progressive
and there can be no guarantee whatever
of any lessening OF this impairment of
stability. The patches and repairs are
purely temporary expedients and from
an engineering point of view must
find their limit In a short time. 1t
is true that the bridge has been under
treatment for defects Of foundation for
