the Servian society called Narodna
Odbrana, in Belgrade, which or
ganized the conspiracy: with methods
by which the bombs and weapons
were Struggled into Bosnia, and re-
lates how the conspirators at Sara
tributed their weapons and took their
places on the street to await the

ted that with second bullet he in
tended to kill Field Marshal Oskar

OFFERS
TO SELL ALASKA
RAILROAD TO i. S.
Secretary Lane Gets PROPOSE
ton as Part of Govern
ment Project.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-An offer
TO sell or to lease the Copper River
and Northwestern railroad to the gov
eminent for use in connection with
the railway the government is pre-
pairing to build in Alaska was made
today by j. Pierpont Morgan to Sec
rotary Lane, of the interior depart
ment The secretary replied that,
pending a report from the board Of
engineers now surveying proposed
routes in the territory, he was UNI
able to consider any proposition for
acquisition of existing lines.
Mr.. Morgan came to Washington
to keep an engagement made last
week, and was in the secretary's wait
ing room on the minute. While he
waited his turn with other callers he
chatted with officials and manifested
great interest in the departments
business methods
AS the head of the New York bank
ing house of Morgan & Co., Mr.. Nor
gan represents the control of the Cop
per River and Northwestern railroad,
which Is owned by what is known as
the Alaska Syndicate, a pool in which
the Morgan and Guggenheim inter-
ests are the principal factors.
The road Is 1861 miles long and
extends from Cordova, it's southern
terminus in Prince William sound,
in a northeasterly direction to Ken
nicott, the location of the Bonanza
Copper Mine. 1t constitutes the out
lot to the sea coast of tho copper
mined by the Guggenheim interests
in Alaska. 1t passes within thirty
miles of the Rich Boring coal fields
on the east and, 1t is said, branch
line easily might reach the Mata-
nuska coal fields on the west.
Mr.. Morgan pointed out some of the
advantages he believed might accrue
to the government from control OF
the line and said he desired that the
secretary should be assured that in
the event the Copper River property
be regarded as desirable to the gov
eminent 1t would be available at
agreed upon terms.
A year ago, William Loeb, jr.,
general manager of the Guggenheim
interests. discussed with Secretary
Lane the acquisition by the govern
ment Of the Copper River line, but
until today nothing tangible de-
veloped from that discussion.

PLAN CENTREFOR
RED CROSS HERE
Meeting Tomorrow Night Called
for Purpose of Further
ing Idea.

Plans are under way to have New
ark and other cities and towns In
Essex county play a prominent part
in the Red Cross work that is being
carried on In this country and abroad.
At a meeting to be held tomorrow
night in Wallace Hail. in the Y. M.
c.. A. building, preparations for the
furtherance of the idea will be made.
Charles Jenkinson, director of the
Atlantic division of the American Red
Cross, will preside at the meeting.
1t is, proposed to have Newark as
a centre, and to form branches in the
other cities and towns of Essex .coun-
ty. The meeting tomorrow night will
be free to the public.
Mr.. Jenkinson said today: Our
idea is to let the public know just
what the Red Cross is doing here
and abroad and what it could do
locally In case of any big disaster
such as large confiagration. There
are sources to be taught women and
children in first aid to the injured,
the, care of the sick and sanitation
and we plan to try and furnish pure
lAllh lilo I'll lflb poor.
About 1870 churches in this section
have planned to send delegates to
the meeting at which local boy
scouts will act as ushers. The Or
anges and Montclair will be especial
ly represented by large delegations.
The plan has the Endorsement and
co-operati ton Of the Newark Board
of Trade, the Associated Charities,
the Y. M. G. A. and all the women's
organizations in this vicinity. If the
branches to be established in the
outlying towns grow sufficiently. they
will be made independent although
they will be somewhat under the su-
pervision of the Newark headquar-
tiers.
Charter members of the organiza-
ton may Join upon the payment of 81
admission fee. The dues are 81 a
year, half of which is retained by the
local chapter for maintenance ex-
penses and a contingent fund. The
other half is forwarded to headquar-
tiers in Washington.

HEAR RUSSIAN
SOCIAL WORKER
Mary Antin Tells Presbyterians
of Her Opposition to Settle
ments for Foreigners.

| Mary Antin, q Russian social work
er of New York, was Sthe guest of
honor and principal speaker last
| night at the first lecture of the series
gwen by the members of the. Presby-
| terrain Union. The meeting was held
in the First Presbyterian Church. A
short business session preceded the
program, with the president, DR.. La
ban Dennis, presiding. The evening
closed with a social hour.
Miss Antin, who has been doing So
cial work for some time, is very much
opposed to settlements for foreigners.
She declared that If the American
people really want to help the poor
immigrants who come to this country
they must not shun them, but try to
help them by being friendly. The
speaker used as an example the time
when she was a child and her family
had been in America but a short time.
They moved to Boston, she said,
where they. had American people as
neighbors.
She declared that the members of
q family living next door at the time
her family moved in would have MOTH
ing to do with her folks, and soon
after moved out because of "the for
eigners." When the children of the
American family grew up the girls
took up social work and returned to
| the very neighborhood to carry out
| their work.
There are not words" declared the
| speaker, ''that Will emphasize the
point strong enough to show the
American people that they are doing
wrong by using this method. The
preamble to the Constitution is a good
example for you Americans to stand
| by. Be kind to the foreigners, and
when they have adopted your Amer
lean ways you VIII be proud of them.
| During the season there will be
many lectures given by the union,
| including a talk by ]. Herman Ran
| dali, d. d. He will deliver a lee

Two Rug Peddlers Are
Fined $40 Each for Not
Having Licenses to Sell

Robert and David Bardofa, OF "a
East 115th street, New York, were
fined $50 each in the Fourth Precinct
Court by Judge Herr today on the
charge Of peddling without license
They were arraigned by License In
spectors Fletcher and Jessup, who
found the two selling Turkish rugs in
Somerset street.
Robert, who is twenty-seven years
old and can speak English, did the
talking for David as Wen as h,msvlf.
When sentence was imposed Roberts
commercial bent asserted itself. and
he told the court that David did no
peddling, because of his inability to
speak English.
David was learning the game and
holding the rugs while Robert did the
selling, the latter insisted. Later on
David might peddle. the brother said,
but just now it was impossible for
him to do so.'

ARMIES PREPARE
FOR BIG BATTLE
CONTINUED from FIRST pase.l


ninety miles southwest of Warsaw,
Killce and Busk on the Bug river,
thirty miles east of Lemberg. To the
left of this army, between LODI and
Kalisz, is another German force, and
on the right of the main German army
Is an Austrian force.
The bulk of the Russian troops are
on the east bank of the Vistula, but
portion of their forces are still on
the west side of the river. The nature
Of the country makes 1t probable that
the centre OF the battle line will be
between Sandomir and Ivangorod,
both on the Vistula river and about
sixty miles apart.
In order to take up these positions,
the Germans have been compelled to
abandon strong positions along the
river Warthe and avail themselves of
the transportation facilities of Rus
sian railways, which are incompar-
ably poorer than what they have been
accustomed to. The Russians are de-
scribed as keen to engage the enemy
in country of their own choosing
and near the base of their supplies.
Berlin declares that all of the west
ern part of Russian Poland is now in
the possession of Germany, and that
every place west of the Vistula, with
the exception of Warsaw, is in their
hands
Should the Austro- German forces
suffer defeat along the battle front
now forming the way would be open
ed, it is being argued In London, for
the invasion of Silesia. which, next to
the Rhine provinces, is the richest
district of Germany. But 1t Is not
anticipated, even in the event of their
victory, that the Russians will adj
vance with any great speed. The to-
Biography of the country and the lack
of transports precludes the possibil-
ity Of, anything like the German
sweep through Belgium.

FAUNCE FAILS TO
GET REDUCTION
OF BAIL BOND
Indicted for Conspiracy Follow
ing Crash of RoseviIle
Bank.

John B. Faunce, an indicted direc-
tor of the Intercity Realty Company,
charged with conspiracy to defraud
the Roseville Trust Company, lost an
other slSirmish in his fight for free
dom today and drew down upon him
self some pointed comments by Chief
Justice Gummere. The proceeding
today was an attempt to have reduced
the $4,000 bail in which Judge Os-
borne held Faunce for trial. M. Case
we'll Heine, counsel for Faunce,
brought physician, lawyer and
business man from New York to testl-
fly to the unlikelihood of Faunce's de-
fault should a smaller bond be re-
quired of him,
The chief Justice said: you gem
| tlenen are quite eager in your testi-
mony In the prisoners behalf, but you
do not offer to contribute toward his
ball" Faunce went back to jail UNI
der the same amount of bail
DR.. Livingston J. Adams testified
that Faunce had gone to Connecticut
upon his advice that "a change of
climate was necessary for Faunce's
health. A. b. Barton, New York
lawyer, testified that he had acted as
counsel for Faunce and knew him to
be an honorable and honest man who
would not default a bond Frank
Wenton also was a character witness
with similar testimony.
Mr. Heine pleaded for a reduction
of the bail, first on the ground that
the crime of which Faunce Is charged
is punishable only with a maximum
of three years in prison, and second
that Faunce left New Jersey for Con-
necticut solely for the benefit of his
health and without knowledge OF
having been indicted here. Faunce
said that he had fought extradition
from Connecticut only upon advice
of counsel and not through fear of
being found guilty and punished.
The chief justice said 1T is diff
cult to believe that this man closed
his Jersey City office and left the
State without knowledge of his in
dictment or suspicion that one had
been found.
"The comparatively light sentence
possible should guilt be proved has
nothing to do with the amount of
bail. Doubtless Judge Osborne had
good reason for fixing 1t at $4,000,
and ! shall not change ii"
