plans, all these airships will be used
for the invasion of Russia.
The kaiser's purpose is to march

Russian territory is planned, not only
to combat the Russian advance now
under way but to drive back the Co.'S
sacks and occupy large extents of Rus
sian territory.
The Germans were two days late In
mobilizing 100000 troops to 60 to the
assistance of the Austrians, thus com.
pelling the latter to evacuate Lemburg.
This information was supplied by
Isidore w. Held of New York, who ar
rived in London today, having left
Berlin on Friday. DR.. Held said he
had learned a good deal of the inside
Of the German plans and war policies
from f1cers in the German army with

wolves, instead of working up and
down as others do, and while standing
with a foot on each side of the shaft,
the lads clothing became twisted
around the shaft. His hold was loos-
ened from the frame and he was whirl-
ed around within the frame of the
tower with such a force that, when a
sudden gust of wind would come, his
head and upper part of his body would
strike the heavy timberwork of the
frame.
His screams, as he realized the
deadly shaft was breaking his grip on
the frame work, quickly brought him
aid, but not before he had been seri-
ously injured. In being whirled
around his head struck the heavy tim
bers of the tower and his skull was

treasury losses due to a falling of Of
imports, are contemplating placing a
stamp tax on all beer and patent med

to be hoped that they will think to
put some of it on ammunition and a

President F. II. Rawson Of the
strong Union Trust Company Bank Of
Chicago has issued the following cir.
cular letter to depositors and Gus.
toners, which explains the position Of
all Chicago banks:
Dear Sir:
On account Of unprecedented condi.
tions prevailing In Europe and sus.
pension Of specie payments. the only
thing for the banks Of this country to
do Is to protect their money supply
by some similar action. As o precau.
tionary measure the Clearing House
Banks OF New York, Chicago, and
other cities will this morning go upon
q Clearing House Certificate basis,
and the customary notice for the
withdrawal Of savings will be re.
quired.
Fortunately since the last disturb.
ance in 1907. measures have been
taken to prevent q currency famine,
namely, the Aldrich.Vreeland Act. for
which currency associations through.
out the country have already been
formed. In few days the method OF
obtaining currency under the pro.
visions Of this Act will be In full op.
Grafton, and from that source currency
can be obtained to carry on business.
Tor the next few days there will nee.
essarily be misunderstanding and an
noyance in . conducting our affairs.
During this period Of adjusting our
selves to new conditions, we beg your
cooperation and help in meeting the
situation.
We are fortunate, indeed, II such q
calamity as Is now hanging over Eu'
rope had to happen, to find our coun'
try in such strong position. With
splendid crops In sight, with the Al
drich.vreeland Currency Bill now ef'
fective, with the new Federal Reserve
Act ready to be put into operation
we should face the situation with
calmness and satisfaction, realizing
as we must. that present conditions
are the result of events entirely foreign
to our own strong position. II bank
ers, business men, and citizens Will
unite in acting with GOODNESS, we shall
find ourselves rapidly adjusting oul
affairs to new conditions which will
steadily improve.

FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL coNvEN'

The Chicago Eagle calls on all good
citizens 10 fight for new State Con-
stitution. The Citizens Association
voices our sentiments when 1t says:
at IS universally admitted that the
present Constitution of Illinois, adopt

been outgrown; and that the slow and
difficult process required 10 amend II
has for many years seriously retarded
the progress OF the people OF the State
by depriyirg them OF the power to
properly meet new governmental
needs arising from the changed condi.
tions. The accumulated evils arising
from this situation have now become
so numerous and acute that adequate
relief can be obtained only by revising
the Constitution In such a way that 1t
will cease 10 be a hindrance TO good
government Such necessary reforms
as the abolition OF the system of mi
nority representation in the Legisla-
ture; reyision OF the teXation system;
consolidation OF local governing and
taxing bodies; and reduction in the
number OF elective officers can only be
secured without intolerable delay by
modernlzing the State Constitution.
Adequate powers of home rule for
Chicago can also best be secured by
this Statewide method.
For forty years proposed amend
ments have killed each other off, One
