He wanted the German right, in the
first advance on Paris, to swing west
| ward as far as 1t could be induced tc
go, and he made his dispositions with
a view to leading it there. The result
was that the German west wing was
tolled away to a dangerous distance
from the center, and when Joffre was
ready to strike and assume the of
fensive, he had the shorter lines, his
forces were completely in hand, and
he drove back an enemy that had been
flushed with the mistaken confidence
that victory was fairly in its grasp.
Everything that extends the lines
of the Germans while in the enemy's
country, and at the same time leaves
the shorter lines of the French, is in
favor of the allies. Belgium has been
abandoned because present abandon
ment Is the surest means to eventual
redemption. There is no sentiment
about the war in such deadly stage
and so King Albert leads his army into
French territory with confidence that
he will play his part in the bigger
strategy and in due time lead it back
into his own land.
Verdun, Nancy, Toul, Belfort, all
have held out against the Germans
thus far. Paris is for the time secure.
The line has grown longer and longer,
the French are on the inside, feeling
for the weak places, and strengthening
their forces. Winter approaches apace,
and Germany confronts the dangers
of winter campaign in hostile terri

fashion, and with the Cossacks ham

A French crash through the center
might at any time divide the enemy,
wreck his communications and demon
alize his whole campaign. That seems
to be the elimination toward which
the strategy of Joffre is aimed.

(FRoM THE WASH iNeToN TiMEs).

Washington, Oct. 21.-General Jof
fre's task at the beginning of the wal
was to prevent the Germans from
crushing France by reason of their pre-
paredness and numbers. Initially
everything was on the German side. In
long war, numbers would be the al
lies side. In q short war they would
be on the German side.
To make the war last two months
was the first task. That would be
long enough approximately to equal.
ize numbers. After that 1t would be
a contest on something like even
terms.
Joffre has been the victor in that
he has accomplished all that he
could have hoped to do in that time.
The Germans have failed in that
they fully expected to be in Paris,
with France at their feet, before now.
Instead they are today fighting on the
III anu oil
effective offensive only in Belgium
The battle line extends from the
Swiss frontier to the sea. 1t would be
hard to make Belgium believe that
anybody's neutrality is secure in this
struggle; but yet it is apparent that
the Germans hope to avoid violating
either Holland or Switzerland. They
cannot afford it. The military ex-
igency is not pressing enough to justi-
fly arraying those sturdy little coun-
tries against Belgium.
So the battle line cannot be extend
ed unless by dint of a German move
down the channel coast. or a farther
German move in the southeast, beyond
Belfort; perhaps both of these. 1t is
very doubtful whether the move in the
southeast will be attempted, because,
first, there is lack of German forces
to carry it on, and second, it would
be an invitation to the Italians to pre-
cipitate themselves into the field at

COURT Of NATIONS
TO END ALL WARS
S. ]. ELDER, WHO REPRESENTED
u.s.AT HAGUE, SAYS DEGREES
CAN BE ENFORCED.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 22.-That a SUI
preme court of Europe to prevent ex
cessive ornaments and compel the
maintenance of international treatie.
may be found practicable after the
present European War, as a proven
tive of further gigantic struggles be
tween the nations, is the belief of Sam
uel j. Elder, expert on international
law. Mr.. Elder represented the Uni.
ted States as senior counsel in the
fisheries dispute before The Hague
Tribunal in 1910, and is close stu
dent of European affairs.
The court of the nations, with GER
tain definite powers, particularly with
reference to ornaments and treaties,
would be a sure preventive against
sudden clashes such as occurred the
first of August. he says. He believes
that the decisions of such court can
be enforced. His idea is that, when
the decision OF the court has been
given, the nations that have signed
the contract to abide by the findings
of the court will. If the convicted
nation does not accept the decision,
proceed to enforce policy of non-in-
tercourse with the guilty nation as re-
CARDS trade and mail. That such q
course would soon bring an offending
nation to terms is the opinion of Mr..
Elder.

APPLY SLOAN'S FREELY FOR
LUMBAGO

Your attacks of lumbago are not
nearly so hopeless as they seem. You
can relieve them almost instantly by
a simple application of Sloan's Lini-
ment on the back and loins. Lumbago
is a form of rheumatism, and yields
perfectly to Sloan's, which penetrates
quickly all in through the sore, tender
muscles, limbers up the back and
makes it feel fine. Get a bottle of
Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any
druggist and have it in the house
against colds, sore and swollen joints,
rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica and
like ailments. Your money back if
not satisfied, but it does give almost
instant relief.

RAILROAD MUST SHOW

WEST POINT AND WINoNA MUCH
DISTURBED BY cuarAlL,
MENT OF SERVICE.

Special to The Neaos.
Jackson, Miss, Oct 22.-What &C.
ton 1t will take in the matter Of the
petition of citizens of West Point and
Winona to require the Southern Rail-
way in Mississippi to reinstate the two
passenger trains that 1t recently took
on between Columbus and Winona
will not be known until the regular
! meeting Of the commission on Nov. 4.
The officials of the railway APP
peared before the commission at a
special session in response to
citations to come here and
show cause why the trains should
not be restored. Vice-President R. ".
Taylor, of the Southern in Mississippi,
and General Counsel S. R. Prince, OF
Mobile, appeared, and stated that the
operation OF the two trains was dis
continued because they were not
profitable, In fact had been losing
propositions.
r. l.. Betty, secretary of the Bust
ness Mems association of West Point,
came here to attend the meeting, and
addressed the commissioners, stating
that adequate passenger train facili-
ties depended on the continued opera
ton OF the two trains. Petitions from
citizens of Winona, West Point and
towns between those places were read
before the commissioners.
When Vice-President Taylor stated
that the trains would be operated dur
ing the Clay county fair at West Point,
Mr.. Betty was evidently greatly
pleased.
The commissioners reserved their
decision in the matter until Novem-
Der 4, taking the question under ad-
visement until that time.
Before adjournment the commission
ers adopted an order refusing to grant
ehO iCquOot vi VI IuC
Central and Y. and NJ. " railroad for
a rehearing on the SHOW case," in
volving the transportation by passen-
ger trains of show private and bag
gage cars of tent theatrical troupes.
The commission at previous meeting
issued an order requiring the two
roads to carry such equipment when
offered provided it met the require
ments of the Interstate Commerce
commission. This was done with the
idea of discrimination between
theatrical organizations playing in
opera houses and under canvas.
The Mobile and Ohio railroad was
given an extension of time to COM
plete passenger and freight depot ia
cilities at Mulden.
The commission passed an order
notifying all parties in interest thai
causes on the docket for the Novem-
Der meeting of the commission would
come up on Nov. 4, as Nov. 8, the reg
ular date for the next session, was on
the date when state elections woul:

Rotterdam, Sept. IS (By MaiD -
Prudent men in Holland continue tc
talk of the European War in whispers
and behind closed doors, and one
would almost think the Duke of Alba
was making another descent on the
Lowlands. A few days ago-before
Queen Wilhelmina addressed the open
ing session of the Staten-General on
the subject of neutrality, expressions
pro and con could be heard in the
cafes and other public places. But
the gentle language of Her Majesty
penetrated deeply-editors have again
taken to their mental retreats and the
0urghers again think of the floods
that will inundate most of Northern
trail Holland in case any warning ma.
ton should attempt an invasion.
Holland has begun to realize the
delicacy and difficulties of her posi-
ton, and the danger of any pronounced
sympathy with one or the other of the
belligerent powers. 1t is feared that
London might take advantage of any
expression of feeling in favor of the
allies in the hope of getting The
Hague to make concessions which
would bring the Germans over the
Dutch borders. This part OF the issue
Is clear enough-even to the Germans.
whose press refers to it now and then
that it is better to have Holland afraid
of England than in love with Germany.
Holland on the whole seems 10 have
been well satisfied with the pre-bellian
status in Europe. Germany was a
good customer of the Dutch colonies
and put annually millions into the
Dutch railways and oversee, river and
canal bottoms. That there are at
present out of work in Rotterdam
some $4,000 men who heretofore made
a comfortable living in the transport
business created by Germany industry,
is a daily reminder that after all the
interests of Holland do not wholly lie
in the destruction of Germans foreign
commerce. Holland, in addition to
handling a great part of Germany's
supply of food, also carried fully one
fourth of the raw material imported
by the German manufacturers and
about one-fifth of the German exports,
having almost entirely the traffic orig
mating in Rhenish-Prussia, Westphalia
and other parts of the empire enjoy

unemployed, and lessen the suffering
of those unable to find work. The

The cities, too, have been given the
right to issue such money, backed by
the municipal property. This has had
the tendency to restore confidence and
recently much silver has been taken
out of hiding so that now conditions
are fairly normal.
Public work which had been de-
layed for one reason or another has
been inaugurated by the national gov
eminent, and most cities are having
their sewers given a thorough over
hauling. In Rotterdam, for instance,
many streets have been torn up from
one end to the other, and large force
is being employed in lifting black,
evil.smelling ooze from the canals by
means of wire baskets at the end of a
long pole-a primitive way of doing
things, but one which helps to keep
people in bread, II not in butter. Then.
TOO, the artificial advancing Of food
prices has been given much attention.
Proclamattons and announcements
everywhere direct that this or that be
sold at such and such a price.
Money is being collected for the
support of the poor. The fact is that
Rotterdam, like all port cities, has
sub-stratum of inhabitants to whom
bare feet, ill-clothed back and empty
stomach are of greater concern than
all else. Already the policemen patrol
in pairs, and where formerly it was
crime to spend a night sleeping on a
bench in the park this no longer
arouses even the slightest attention.
The systematic interference of Eng
land and France with Dutch shipping
is not relished here. Holland, it is
said has given every proof that she is
willing to do her best for the preserva-
ton of her neutrality. That some
grain has entered Germany from Hol-
land cannot be denied, but recently
the government has put stop to this
All railroad cars entering Germany
are now examined by the military ali

traband is confiscated. The Dutch
government has agreed that food be-
longings to those articles which have
been included in the list of commodi-
ties coming under the head of hostile
assistance and at present Germany is
getting none of these. Some time ago
it was learned that some Dutch farm
ers along the border had been doing a
little business with the Germans, but
now this has been stopped.
