Not Enthusiastic For War, but ThOy
Welcome Il Now Since II Started.
Dondon.-The censorship OF war news
is the most complete and rigid and all
embracing censorship that was ever
enforced since censorship was invent
ed. Nothing whatever was given out
In the early days of the war except
that which favored the British side. II
was obvious that the Germans were
moving remorselessly on, even If they
were not moving much faster than
glacier. But the newspapers were
only allowed to print news Of more or
less doubtful Belgian victories. They
grew restiye under 1t. but that was all
the good 1t did them.
Lord Kitchener is in command.

wants something published Most times
he wants nothing whatever printed
On this occasion he called the London
newspaper men together. He said he
wanted to confer with them. The
newspaper men decided-before they
met Kitchener-to offer not to publish
anything which might anticipate any
movement of the troops or in any 9th
er way embarrass officials.
81 shall establish news bureau"
said Kitchener in that peculiarly grim
and uncompromising way he has, "and
through it all the news the government
wishes published will be given out"
The conversation went all to pieces
at that point "Kitch" looked at the
newspaper men. They looked at
'Kitch." By and by one of them said
fearlessly:
every good, sir"

is contrary to the desires Of the gov

CANAL WILL CHANGE
WORLDS GEOGRAPHY
Report Shows How Distances
Have Been Cut In Hall.

Washington, d. C.-The National
Geographic society has issued a state.
ment on the probable effect Of the Pan
anna canal on the commercial geOg-
raphy Of the world. 1t says:
at seems that the Panama canal
will carry most Of the freight passing
between the eastern coast Of the Unit
ed States and the western coast of
Latin-America and that the shorter
distance and lower rates which it of
fers will greatly increase that trade;
that the trade between the eastern and
western sections Of the United States
will be greatly increased and trans
ported at a much lower charge per
ton; that it will sufficiently shorten
the distances to Japan, northern
China, Australia and New Zealand to
increase steamship service and ma
terially increase the traffic with those
countries, and that the European cOun-
tries will use the canal in most of
their traffic with western America and,
in exceptional cases, with northern
Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
THE canal has shortened travel
routes between New York and Yoko-
hama by $3.50 miles; between New
York and Shanghai, about 1000 miles;
between New York and Australia,
about 5000 miles, and between New
York and western South America by
from $500 to 1000 miles. 1t also re
duces the distance from Europe to
western South America by more than
5000 miles. International commerce
doubled in the thirty years following
the opening Of the Suez canal and bust
ness and personal interrelationship be-
tween the occident and orient was in
creased in like proportion. Will SINH
lar results follow the like shortening
Of trade and travel routes by the Pan
anna canal?
zone of the most important results
of the opening of the canal will doubt
less be found in it's effect upon the
movements of merchandise between
the eastern and western sections of
the United States. The data at hand
seems to justify an estimate of about
100000 tons per annum Of freight
moved by rail and about half a mil
lion tons by water from the Atlantic
coast section to the Pacific coast sec
ton and about an equal amount from |
the Pacific coast section and Hawaii |
to the Atlantic coast section. The |
freight charges on these 100000 tons |
are estimated at from $250,000,O00 to |
$300,000,000 per annum. The canal |
will chop huge amounts from these
charges"

SEEKING GOOD WILL OF U. S.
England Wants America to View War
as FIGHT on Autoeraey.

London.-England is grateful for
Americas favorable opinion which the
numerous dispatches to the London
newspapers described as being almost
wholly on the side of the allies. To
England one curious development of
this war is that American public Opin-
ion has become something of appre-
ciable value. Hitherto in great
world questions Americas opinion has
amounted to little and has received
slight consideration. Now, however,
the good will of the United States is
eagerly sought, and it is realized that
when the end comes Washington will
play an important part in the settling.
England is not asking for direct
American support. fully realizing that
Americas duty is strict neutrality, but
the governments of the allies, the pub
lie men and the newspapers urge
America t. think that this is a fight
against autocracy and military dicta-
tOrship which, if it ended successfully
for the kaiser, would leave America in
a dangerous position.
The only point of irritation which
has appeared here is the possibility Of
German ships being transferred to the
American flag and transporting food
to Holland, whence it will be shipped
to the German army. 1t is considered
that this is n doubtful question Of pure
neutrality. Some commentators pro-
fess some agitation on this point, while
others take the view that America can
be depended on to observe all the pro
pTieties.

mate, now a member of 1.-THE system"
who Is expected to call. Jane confesses
that the money for the butchers bill has
gone for a new hat. Brand, Hudson Ce-
ment company president, offers Bob $40,-
U0O to use his position as chemist with the
United Construction company to cheat the
specifications for cement work on the
Recos River dam. Jane overhearng asks
Bob to accept. His refusal, in the face
OF their poverty, chills her. Brand wiles
Jane into a conspiracy to make Bob
earn" the $4,000. He takes her for an
auto ride and they are seen by Dick
She receives 800 "conspirator's money"

vague idea of making him cease his rides

The Takachiho was on patrol duty
outside Tsingtau when she fouled the
mine. Japanese destroyers heard the

of the cruiser which, however, disap-
peared quickly, and in the darkness it
was possible to rescue only II men.
Twenty-eight officers, 54 non-commis-

The Takachiho was built in 1885
and refitted in 1900 She was a vessel
