London.-Au those who have jour
Deyed through the Red Sea can hardly
have failed to notice the desolate red
hills that seem to rise almost directly
from the water close to the southwest
OF Suez, and will very likely have re-
marked on the preference OF a long
drink and a deck chair to a scramble
on their sun-scorched slopes. These
same hills run in an unbroken chain
parallel to the coast, through Egypt
and the Red Sea Province Of the Su-
dan right down to Eritrea- The chief
inhabitants OF this desolate region are
the wild native tribes and the Nubian

TACTICS SHOWN
BY ARMY MOVES
StrategicaI Problems of Warning
Nations Are Now Becom-
ing Apparent.
KEEL CANAL IS BIG FACTOR
Capture Of Waterway by Enemies Of
Germany Might Prove Turning
Point Of War-lmportance
of Paris and Berlin.

Notwithstanding the meagerness of
details from Europe, the strategical
problems for Germany and France
have become more apparent during
the last few days.
France must protect her frontier
against German invasion and at the
same time she must proceed as fast
IS possible towards the KieI canal
That canal is apt to prove the turn
ing point IN the war If the triple en-
tente gets control of it, according to a
military expert writing for the Chica-
90 Tribune
Germany, on the other hand, must
protect her French border and the
Ktel canal and drive her forces into
Russia as fast as possible.
The question now presented to Ger
many and France is where to attack.
The capture of Paris alone at pres
ent probably would not bring about a
cessation Of combat on the part of the
French, as the sinews of war have
been well provided further to the
south.
Berlin is not Germany even to any
where nearly as great an extent as
Paris is France. The straight line dis
lance from Namur (the fortress before
which the Germans have established
touch with their French antagonists)
to Paris is $50 miles; to Berlin, 400
miles; to the KieI canal, 300 miles.
The distance from MuIhausen to Ber-
lin is about 400 miles; to the Kiel ca
nal, 500 miles.
But the distance from Paris to Null
hansen is about $50 miles, and from
Namur to Mulhausen is 220 miles, and
almost straight south by east of 1T

KEPT THEM UNDER HIS EYE
Idea Of Garden Party for Fanatics
Proved Salvation of British Gov
ernor in india.

Lord Sufield went with the then
prince of Wales to India in 1875. At
one place the governor felt nervous be-
cause among his people there were a
number of political and religious
fanatics, who might be expected to
make trouble when the prince passed
through. He was strongly tempted to
lock them all up, but this would have
been a somewhat high-handed action,
and the governor hesitated to enforce
1t.
He mentioned his difficulty to one of
his daughters.
But why not give a garden party,
papa?" she replied at once. Invite
them all and keep them entertained
until the prince has passed through"
So fanatics garden party was Civ

as it might be possible that the en-

The German Plans.
Germany on the other hand has not
only France to attend to but Russia
as well. In considering her plans she
also must take into account Austria
Should Russia be allowed to mobilize

that she would be able to oYerwheIm
Austria, first attacking on the Lem
berg-Bucharest (Roumania) line. It
is probable that Germany is acting
with rapidfty against Ruz STA.
What press dispatches have drifted
through indicate that 10000 Germans
landed some three days ago between
Hango and Helsingfors In Finland.
This force in all probability consisted
of one army corps and one cavalry d.
vision, some additional heavy artillery,
engineers and aeronautical troops.
From Warsaw to st. Petersburg
there are u Russian corps, but as
these are not fully modified one Ger
man corps is probably as strong in
men as two Russian corps just now.
The German corps which landed in
g. d,
tersburg is undoubtedly designed to
hold the four Russian corps in that
vicinity to keep them from going to
the assistance of the other Russian
corps further to the south.
Again it was reported that the Rus
sian government has decided to evacuE
ate Warsaw, which vas officially de-
MED at St Petersburg. Weighing this
evidence, it seems probable that
| there has been a German advance from
Intersburg in the direction Of Wilma
to hold the four Russian corps sta

harm or going to any other place.
Possibly three German corps, whose

the German main army and such a
great penetration of German territory
probably would paralyze the defense
the distance is 400 miles Every
mile will be bitterly contested and
every miles means thousand of lives

kieI Canal Big Factor.
The KieI canal is the deciding fac
tor in the control of the sea- 1t is 800
miles from Namur Many of Germany's
great supply points are in the interval
between. An advance on this line
would be near the sea, where England
could help with her ships. Once the
KieI canal is captured humiliation Of
the German fleet might result which
would give command Of the Baltic sea
to France and her allies and allow the
unrestricted transport Of Russian
troops and material of war to the
north German coast.
It therefore would appear that the
strategy Of France will aim at the cap
ture Of the Kie1 canal, because it is
the most important point strategically
which Germany possesses. By this
line of action France would utilize to
the utmost England's great sea power.
In addition, by a direct invasion in
the direction of the Kiel canal France
would cover Paris and her communi-
cations better than by any other route.
An advance via Mulhausen and Stras-
burg would be extremely dangerous
and just what the Germans would like
to see France do. Hence we see why

A 900 of these were cavalry. This
means that the three Austrian corps
stationed in Galicia, or a little less
than 100000 combatants, with nine di-
visions of cavalry, about $4,000, have
gone into Russia, but Just where is
left to the Imagination.
Six corps, three German and three
Austrian, and from $4,000 to 10000
cavalry are probably advancing to-
wards Brest-Lgtovosk. By the time
these arrive there it is difficult to see
how the Russians can have more than
three full corps and 10000 to 10000
cavalry Austrian troops have ad-
Vanced along the eastern frontier that
is just north of Roumania-
It seems probable that on the
French frontier at the present time
Germany has nine corps of the active
army, assisted by one Austrian corps
on the German extreme left, near the
Swiss border. There probably are
nine more corps Of the first reserve
and nine more Of the second reserve
also on the French frontier, which
with all their auxiliaries amount to
well over 100000 fighting men.
It appears that If these million Ger
mans care to remain on the defensive
on the French border it viii take a
pretty gOodIy number Of attackers to
get them out of their intrenchments, if
they ever can do It Providing Aus
tria and Germany are directing their

reap any advantage must strike quick
Iy and hard on line as short, in a mil
itary way. as possible toward the KieI
