Times correspondent at Namur Of a
battle between the French-Belgian
troops and Germans at Dinant indi-

front nearly fifteen miles westward
into Belgium. Dinant is about thir-
teen miles south of Namur and fifteen
miles west Of Marche, one of the

east of Waterloo and about twelve
miles southeast of Brussels.
The censorship put into effect by
the British authorities, who control

A Brussels dispatch to the Standard

ASSERTS RUSSIA IS
READY TO STRIKE

London, Aug. 1S.-An official com.
munication ISSUED by the French war
office received from the Paris cor
respondent of the Exchange Telegraph
company, says:
"At the moment that the German
main force comes in contact with our
troops says the war office, "our al
lies will force both Austria and Ger
many to engage in an additional
struggle which, it seems likely, will
be of giant proportions.
"lt is we'll known that the Germans
anticipated the decisive defeat of the
French, so that they might immedi.
ately follow up such success by a
battle against our allies. 1t is also
we'll known that they counted on the
slow mobilization of the Russian
forces and upon disturbances in Po-
land to gain time for their arms. The
czar. however, by his promise to give
autonomy to Poland. has obtained the
fidelity of the Poles and Russia S
mobilization has been accomplished
with remarkable rapidty.

forward for an offensive blow, the re.
suit of which will soon be felt"

Toxic. Aug. 1S.-The government
is preparing for war. The fleet is
manned ready for action.
The army has been made ready and
several corps are prepared to go on
board the transports, which are fully
provisioned and have steam up.
There is no doubt here that the
ultimatum delivered to Germany will
be denied and that immediate hostili-
ties will follow.
The ultimatum, which has been
transmitted to Berlin, demands the
withdrawal of German warships from
the Orient, or if not withdrawn they
be interned for the war, and the
evacuation of Kiaochou.
1t gives Germany until Sunday, Aug.
%, to begin such withdrawal and un.
til Sept Is to actually comply with
the demand.
After the ultimatum was sent
George w. Guthrie, the American am
ace by the Japanese foreign minister,
Takaaki kato, and the situation was
presented to him.
He was told the action Of the Japa-
nese government was in the interest
of peace in the Orient.
Trading Vessels in Danger.
The governments position, Guthrie
was informed was that the presence
of German Warships in Far Eastern
waters and the maintenance there of
a German base is detrimental to
peace in the Orient, inasmuch as trad
ing vessels are always in danger OF
capture by the Germans.
Guthrie was asked to emphasize to
his own government that Japan had
no territorial designs herself. The
territorial colonies she desires turned
back to China.
The foreign minister gave the most
profuse assurances of Japans friend
ship to the United States and declar-
ed that under no circumstances will
anything be permitted that would in
any way offend the government of the
United States.
Owing to doubts whether commune
cation with Berlin was assured Ja-
pan in order to insure the arrival Of
the utimatum forwarded it to Ber-
lin by six channels, including Wash
ington, London and Stockholm. The
government also notified Count Won
Reed, German ambassador to Japan,
and likewise retarded the time limit

Captain H. Mel. P Huse, carrying

O'Shaughnessy, addressing Col. Ca

Carona smiled and bowed politely,

Il have no authority to discuss any
other matter than the delivery of the

Carona's attitude changed entirely
after he reached the Mexican train
with the Mass women. He held the
train only long enough to permit the
removal of Mrs. O'Shaughnessy, her
son, their baggage and one automo-
bile. He then said he must hurry and
departed with two automobiles be

automobiles to the American lines

Fact 10 Shown by Mans Esaerness to

Why is II that railway magnates,
presidents of banks and heads OF
great enterprises who must perforce
do business in cities, almost all try to
have homes on farms In the country,
where they develop soils. plant crops
and breed animals? 1t Is because there
is wearisome monotony in piled up
brick and stone. There is confusion
in crowded streets and changing troll
ley cars and hot smoky railways.
These things man has made. and they
are needful, but they are not life, much
as the farm boy may imagine them to
be.
Life is in the open country. Life is
In the growing grass. the waving fields
of wheat, the springing corn. Life is
