In the King address proroguing Parlia-

with reluctance, England went to war for
the protection Of public law in Europe
which had been set at naught as had pub
lished treaties.
The King declared that he had every
confidence in the patriotism Of the coun-
try and that ne looked forward to a sue
cessful conclusion of the war.
The King did not deliver his speech in
person. but it was read by a royal COM
missioner. In opening, His Majesty said:
After my government has exhausted
every effort to maintain peace in
Europe ! was compelled by the eXcr-
cisng of my treaty obligations and
the interests of the empire, to go to
war. NV navy and my army with
unceasing vigilance. courage and skill,
are sustaining with our gallant-allies,
a just and righteous cause.
An enthusiastic demonstration in the
House of Commons marked the conclu-
sion Of the reading of the royal speech.
Will Crooks, q prominent labor MEM
ber from Woolwch, asked whether it
would be in order to sing the National
anthem. The speaker assente1 and the

WOUNDS "WHIP" TO
AYENGE DEATH OF
FLORENCE SCHENCK
Alleged Detective, Who
Says Vanderbilt Groom
offered to Pay for Girls
Murder, Meant to Kill
Wilson.

NEW YORK, Sept 1st-Charles II.
Wilson, Gwynne Vanderbilt's stable
manager. whose love affairs have fur
nished gossip for two continents, was
backed up against wall in the Van
derbilt stables at the Westchester horse
show at White Plains yesterday after.
noon and shot at five times by Frederick
Schultz, said to be a house detective at
the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Wilson escaped
with a slight wound in the foot
According to Schultz, Wilson promised
him 5000 to take Florence Rosser
Schenck, with whom the famous whip
had lris best-known affair, to San Fran
cisco and there murder her. Miss
Schenck died last January from broken
heart. her friends said. 1t was after
conversation of 10 or Is minutes dura-
ton on this subject yesterday afternoon
that Schultz suddenly pulled a revolver
and emptied 1t at Wilson
Stable men rushed forward and
wrenched the revolver from Schultz
while others lifted Wilson to his feet
Sheriff Doyle took charge of Schultz
who began to talk to the excited crowd
around him. He declared that he had
avenged the death OF Miss Schenck,
whom Wilson cast off. Before he could
talk further he was hustled away to
n cell.
One of the high priced Vanderbilt
horses, according to witnesses of the at
tack. saved Wilson's life When Schultz
opened fire the stable manager leaped be-
hind one of the animals. leaving the
sleuth the alternative of killing the horse
or using for his target that part of Will
sons anatomy that was still in range.
This was Wilson'S feet, and Schultz made
the most of his opportunity.
Although Schultz denied that he had
intended to harm the famous whip, but
had planned only to scare him, witnesses
say that as he was being led away from
the stables to Jail he shouted back to
Wilson:
Il meant to kill you, but I didn't be-
cause you are not good enough for that"
If the shooting follows. as his assaiant
asserts, from Wilson's treatment of Flor
ence Schenck, it is the fourth or fifth
event In the aftermath of trouble directly
connected with six months in the summer
OF 1906. when the whip and the beautiful
daughter of DR.. p. 5. Schenck of Nor
folk. Va finished season at the London
horse show with a gay tour of smart set
cafes i'll that city and Paris.
Wilson met Miss Schenck that year,
when she was eighteen years old and he
was DO. Ele persuaded her, the girl claim
ed, under promise of marriage, to make a
secret trip to Richmond. Va, on which
Wilson explained that he was married
but that as soon as he was free he would
make her his wife.

ENGLAND NEEDLEW0RK MAD,
SIR GEORGE PRAGNELL SAYS
Defeats Plan for More Workrooms
Out of Princes Fund,

LONDON, Sept 1S.-"England is needle
work mad" declared Sir George PragneII
at a meeting of the London Committee
dealing with the prevention of distress
He was speaking in opposition TO a plan
to create more workrooms out OF the
Prince of Wales fund, and he managed
TO defeat the plan. Instead the commit
tee decided to buy goods for the troops in
the regular course of business, thus help
ing to keep trade in ITS usual channels.
A trip through shops and public houses
in London indicates that Sir George
Pragnell was correct about the needle-
work craze. Barmaids. cashiers, wait
resses and women clerks are knitting
and sewing every leisure moment. The
papers abound in notices of guilds which
were soliciting tine help of the olsen
gagged women In making shirts and other
garments for the soldiers.
Impossible truck made out of impos-
sible materials" was the way one man
described much of the output Of the hit
or-miss sewing circles which are not
working under Government direction.

positive stand, reiteratng his previous

commanders are likely Go have difficulty
in leading them over 200 miles TO Cracow.
Among 1000 captured Austrians at the
battle of Tomascow, Russian Poland,
there was not single officer, reports q,
correspondent Of the London Standard,
telegraphing from Petrograd a remarks
able explanation Of the Generalization of
the Austrian army.
There have been many previous ac-
counts of the Slav and Czech soldiers OF
Austria being driven into battle by their
officers with revovers. The decimation
of their officers reported at Tomascow,
IL true. indicates what a terrible revenge
has come to the common soldiers. In
subsequent engagements, said the corre-
spondents informant, the same operation
was repented-the Austrlans would lose
their officers and then abandon their
guns and raise the white flag.

the face of attempts on the part of labor

have gladly waived all holidays and are
working Sundays whenever it is neces-

Union officials took the position that

what do you think she wanted? To

would have it that that was Just the

In America could easily be trained

"None but native teachers should be

their earliest years that they can &C.
