Won MOLTKE OUT?

Lieutenant Gcnefal HelTutn Won
Moltke is nephew of The great Won
Moltke, strategist and director OF
the German war of 1870. There is
reason to suspect that his moral and
intellectual bent was not by nature
toward a military career; but he was
a favorite nephew, he bore a great
military name, and the i1eXorable
caste system of the empire drew
him to service in the army. The
present Kaiser, apparently for SEN
timental reasons largely, wanted the
younger man of the great house TO
be head of the army in turn, and de-
liberately selected him for chief Of
staff long before he was actually
designated for that post. Won Moltke
did not consider himself equipped for
the place, and is said to have excused
himself twice from assuming 1t. In
1905, however, he yielded, and be-
came head of the war machine.
Now comes the report that he HIS
been removed by the Emperor be-
cause his strategical conceptions did
not commend themselves and the
campaign has not been so successful
as was hoped. One story is that the
Emperor wanted the campaign to in
clude plans for bold stroke directly
at England, and that Won Moltke
would not listen to him This alone
seems t. cast suspicion en- the whole
story. How was the bold stroke to
be aimed and executed? Down to
date, Germany's chance of such a
coup has been about as good as of
circumnavigating Saturn on its
rings.
Doubtless there have been sorry
disappointments among Germans
who counted on "Paris in ten days"
after an unopposed march through
Belgium. But the chief German fail
ures, after all, hav. been attrihut-
able to diplomatic errors. To plunge
irrevocaoly into the war with so in
adequate an understanding of its fac
tors as Berlin displayed, was "worse
than a crime; It was I Dlulnder' The
general staff didn't perpetrate that
blunder. The Emperor, above all
men, should have known whether
Britain was going to remain neutral; !;
whether Italy would stand by the
Triple Alliance. Surely the general
staff cannot be held responsible for
losing Italy rs an ally and gaining
Britain as an enemy!
But there must be somebody to
blame. The chancellor is reported TO
have beer charged with the diplo-
matte blunders; it need not be
strange if irresponsible imperialism
shall now seek to hold the chief of
staff responsible fo- failure to ac-
complish the impossible.
The most moving reason, IN all
the circumstances, for doubting the
story of Moltke's removal is the sem
timental one. The name of Moltkc
has not yet ,ost its magic. To re-
move Moltke would De to scrape off
the gilt and glamour. Germany
would stand aghast, ready to believe
there was no limit to the possibility
CT disaster III situation that could
unmake a Moltke.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S TRIUMPH


 Tho result of the Niagara Falls conference so far as 1t has gone. is such triumph for President Wilson's much misunderstood policy as to astonish even tho staunchest supporters of the President says the New York Times. The protocol signed by the South Amer ican medators and the delegates both Mexico and the United states opens the way for the establishment peace in the troubled republic the institution suitable preliminaries of a Government chosen to duct its affairs for the benefit the people chosen by thom without hindrance The dsinterestedness Of the United States is made clear to the world, and what is the point to the Mexicans themselves, who reasoning by their past experiences and the trouble caused by the American interventonists have been justified in doubtng sincerity
 We promise to recognize the Provisional Government be up through offices of the conference and to restore diplomatic relations with Mexico, and we exact no indemnity whatever Mexico binding herself her part to take measures for the payment of all just claims for the destruction of the property for eign residents. We avoid war war which while f. threatened was obviously to the taste of but few Amer jeans and they not of the patriotic type but we do more and even better than that for as one party to riparty movement of which the three South Amer republics acting jointly and the Mexican delegates are the other parties we pledge lasting friendship with Mexico and establish on new and promising footing our relations with all Latin America.
 In fact the result of this mediation conference, which the easily disheartened were calling failure only yes erday may fairly be called prodigous and unpreced tented history international relations It will be hard for many persons realize all that has been accom plishcd by Mir. Wilson's acceptance of the good offices but the result will loom large in history; and it ought be taken a wholesome antdote to many of our ills imaginary, including business depression. In il all there is nothing satisfactory than the assured of establishment of relations with the prncipa countries of South America which should be of grea mutual benefit hereafter.
 The only possible source of trouble will be th council representatives of the two Mexican factions The facts that the ConsHtuuonalists have agent take part in the council and that they obyous anxious to be represented aa well in the mediation con ference show that the that party know tha
 the aid of the United States and the South American rC publics is essential to the of Mexican Gov enment hereafter and that whatever individuals anon
 the agents may say or accused of saying, the cour cn will take up its deliberations in the right spirit W have no doubt whatever of the outcome.
