sPAIN ASKS BRITAIN FOR
PROTECTION IN MEXICO

Rear Admiral Mayo, commanding the
American naval vessels at Tampico,
Mexico. reported to the Navy Depart
ment yesterday that he had been in
formed by the commanding of1cer Of the
British cruiser Hermione that he has In
structions to care for Spanish subjects
In the event Of any disturbance at Tam
pico.
II has long been known that Spain
feels very deeply the fact that hundreds
: of her citizens have been killed, or de-
ported, and their properties confscated
In Northern Mexico, and the Spanish
government and its representatives have
been inclined to blame the United States
Heretofore, Spain has looked to the
United States for assistance. This is
stilI the case in Northern Mexico. as the
United States Is the only nation having
numerous representatives in rebel terri
tory.
At Tampico, however, the United
States In not the only nation having
warships on the scene Great Britain
and Germany also have naval vessels
there. That Spain should turn from the
United States to Great Britain at the
first occasion where IL had the oppor-
tunity to exercise a choice is regarded
as a clear indication. not only Of its
preference in the matter, but also that
iE..does not recognize the United States
ache only power capable Of acting in
Mexico.
yegotiattons in Vain.
As a matter of fact, all that the
United States has done for Spaniards in
Mexico has been TO intercede with the
rebel authorities. In the case OF the
sraniards expelled from Chihuahua by
villa, the efforts OF the United States re-
suited only in the statement from Villa
that he knew these Spaniards to have
been aiding the enemy. Similarly,
promise from Villa that at Torreon he
would expeH only those Spaniards who
had been helping the Huerta government
was accepted by the State Department,
though, elsewhere, it is recognized that
in interpreting this promise, villa is
both Judge and jury. 4
At present 1t Is reported that 500
Epgniards have been ordered from
Torreon by Villa, and their properties
ccnfscated, but as the State Department

Admiral Fletcher's reports of Monday
regarding the arrival Of large bodies of

the Great? -.
The characteristics found in one
are not unlike those possessed by the
other; the problems that confront the
one are much the same as those mas
tered by the other in the great Seven
Years War of 1756-1763.
But can the great William measure
up to the standard of the great Fred
erick, the powerful war lord, the mar
velous fnancier and the wise ruler?
Frederick finished the seven years
war with military prestige of Prus-
STA largely enhanced, its boundaries
intact, no national debt and no in
crease in direct taxes.
AS in this war the contest saw its
start through a purely technical dis
pute and before it's finish practically
all Europe had part in it.
Frederick, soon after his accession
to the throne, started a war with
Austria, over the possession of
Silesia, basing his claim to large
part of the country on an old transac-
ton in which, he said, Austria had
played a greedy and dishonest part.
In the first and second Silesian
wars, 174O-42 and 1744-45, he won
Silesia. His title was recognized at
the treaty of Aix-la-C hapelle in 1748.
Maria Theresa, ruler of Austria,
was bent upon the recovery of Silesia
and France and England had not yet
settled the differences that arose dur
ing the capture of the country. A
defensive alliance against Frederick
had been arranged between Austria
and Russia. The French and Indian
war started in 1854 in America. Two
years later France and England were |
fighting in the Mediterranean. Eu-
rope was all set for a great war. 1t |
came the same year-1756.
Russia proposed to Austria the |
partition of the Prussian territories. |
The wary Frederick demanded of the |
powers their intentions. Receiving |

WILL KAISER WILHELM BECOME ANOTHE
FREDERICK THE GREAT?

SdAOuy duU Iu0I Tie AuSIIldu du-
vance in an indecisive battle at Lob
ositz. The Saxon army after a siege
of some weeks capitulated at Pima,
leaving Frederick in possession Of
the country.
In 1857 the Diet of the German en-
pire declared war on Frederick. Aus
tria, Russia and France completed
new treaty of offensive alliance.
Sweden soon joined the allies. A few
more declarations of war didn't
bother Frederick the Great any more
than they seem to do Kaiser Wilhelm,
his successor.
His alliance with England was of
no great aid at the time, although
the statesman Pitt was just taking
hold and starting the work that was
to aid Prussia. Frederick had only
100000 subjects. The array against
him was the most powerful Europe
has ever witnessed. ..
Frederick's only hope was to strike
quick and hard. In Bohemia he de-
feated the Austrians under Charles of
Lorraine and Gen. Browne before
Prague. Brilliant victories followed,
then violent reverses. In 1853 Prus-
STA seemed to be PROSTATE even after
England came with financial help.
In 1859 Frederick revived his spent
army and fought on the defensive
and was frequently defeated.
Peter III. succeeded to the throne
of Russia in 1862 and being an adj
mirer of Frederick repudiated his al
lance with the other nations and
threw his aid to the Prussians. At
this critical period the assistance was
just what Frederick required to pre-
vent his ultimate defeat.
Peter was deposed by his wife,
Catherine H., and the Russian troops
were ordered home. Sweden, too,
withdrew from the struggle. At the
close of 1852 truce was signed be-
tween Prussia and Austria and the
