Trembling with fear, the two picked their way

him to work with him. After much narrowing of
eyes and wrinkles of doubt on the part of Herr
Dannhem, the latter finally, as if seized by sudden
impulse of generosity and faith, reached across the
table, grasped young Hauser firmly by the hand, and
told him that he would "let him in.

 Embracing Christianity about the middle of the seventh century, the
 Serbs gradually became the dominant race in the country which had an ciently been inhabited by Thracian tribes and which was subsequently, oc- | cupied by Huns, Ostrogoths, Lon-
 bards, Avares, and other tribes. For 1 a time Servia was subject to the By za.ntine emperor but Sl1So they re- 1 gained their independence, and in | 134O King Stephen Dushan founded

 The proclamation of independence

U. s. CANNOT OWN SHIPS WHICH CARRY
 WAR CONT TRABAND

Washington, Aug 21-The Admin istration's proposal to have the Gov ernment invest s25s0o0.00a in vessels to help carry American grain and manu- factures in the overseas trade is not regarded enthusiastically here today as 1t has been.
 The fact is beginning to become ap- parent that this Government cannot undertake to carry contrapand of war such as grain to anysof the belligerent nations and that the vessels, if bought by the United States. will have to be used chiefly in trade between ss this country and neutral European nations and between the United States and South America.
 The principal reason. given for the proposed undertaking by the Govern ment is to relieve congestion at the grain ports, but to what extent this can be accomplished if the United States refrains from attempting to transport wheat belligerent nations is not now apparent Leaders in Con gress also were inclined to argue that private capital ought to go ahead and acquire vessels now that the Govern ment probably will assume the war risk.
 Notwithstanding these objections the Administration bill will be re- ported and it probably will pass the House. The fate of the measure in the Senate is open to conjecture.

MILITARY EXPERT DESCRIBES MOVES
 OF RIVAL FORCES

A European military officer, writing in the New York Sun of today says:
 To get 9. fair idea of the war situa- tion and the meaning of the main moves of the armies it is essential to keep in mind not only what the Ger mans are attempting in Belgium but what the French at the same time are accomplishing in Lorraine. While the Germans in Belgium have very slowly and at heavy cost been able to ad- vance and have only today been able to come fully into contact with the main Belgian and French forces, the French have been carrying out opera tions in Lorraine which are bound to have results of a. most important bearing not only on the outcome of the war but possibly on the German moves in Belgium and the whole Ger man operative plans
 While the Germans are making their first aggressive movements along the whole line from the Vosges up to Lfege (which they evidently expected to reduce rapidly and then cross with out delay through Belgium into FTance) the French along their whole front remained on the defensive and waited to feel for and discover the. reIetsve placing of the German forces.
 The German moves finally revealed that their main forces were massed behind the advance guards of the Ger man right wing in Belgium and in the region of Coblentz and Cologne, sepa- rated from Lorraine by the Eifel Mountains and the Ardennes. The French saw in that disposition of troops indication of weaker points in the German centre in Lorraine and the German left wing in Alsaee.
 The moment the German intention of striking through Belgium along the valley of the Mouse was made clear the French army of the centre, SUD- ported by the group of the French right wing at Belfort, began it's coun-. ter offensive through Lorraine. with the object of striking at the German base (CobIentz- -Mainz3 along the old road of French invasion into Ger many. That was always a successful road for France. as it was in the days of Turenne and in the days of the French revolution. The French steady successful advance on that line is con- frmed by today's latest official des- patches are still victoriousIy pressing on.
 Reports from Russia indicate only completed it's vast mobilization and l that it began on Sunday it's advance | on Germany and Austria
 l As the peace of advance of an army
 of that magnitude is not more than l about twelve miles a day and the re- isgion of Russian concentration is not ] revealed it is difficult to judge of the time it will take for the main forces l to come into contact with those of | Germany and Austria. Between now | and that event all engagements re- l ported in that theatre of war will be l.merely advance guard encounters of
