NEW QUARTERS OF
EMBASSY PALATIAL
by Gable to The Trnune. !

Lordon, Sept. 2S.-The American
Embassy opened for business with all
corners this morning in the new Of
fees, at 4 Grosvenor Gardens. Natu-
rallied Americans and refugees from
the Continent who called there thought
they had visited Buckingham Palace by
mistake, so magnificent are the EN-
bassy's present quarters. Jeffersonian
simplicity is noticeable only in the
rooms where carpets are not yet laid.

The house is a skyscraper, accord

stories and a sort of roof garden
above. Each secretary has a room big
enough to play tennis in, and the Am

American residents Of London who
called TO inspect the new embassy were
speechless at the splendor, and respect
for the United States, which has in
creased tremendously since the war
began, took another upward leap.

AUSTRTANS BITTER
TOWARD COSSACKS
Soldier Declares Officer
Spat in Face of One
in Hospital.

Tribune and London standard"

Tribune and London "Standard."l
Petrograd, Sept. 20. 49, Among the
wounded soldiers who recently arrived
in Moscow is a Cossack who was hurt
during the fighting at Zamosc. He says
he was captured by Austrians and was
nine days in an Austrian hospital,
which eventually fell into the hands of
the Russians.
Austrian doctors, the Cossack says,
treated the wounded, among whom were
several Russians, with Kindness and
consideration.
Officers inquired if there were any
wounded Russian Cossacks in the hos
pital. Cossacks who were dressed in
hospital clothes and had their hair cut
were silent, but one of them could not
tolerate the humiliation any longer and
proudly announced that he was q Co.'S
sack. An Austrian officer gave him
violent blow on the cheek and spat in
his face.
The wounded soldiers state that the
Austrians imposed on Zamosc levy of
10000 roubles, but had no time to col
lect it.
The returning soldiers report that
Krasnoff sustained heavy damage from
bombardment and passed several times
from the hands of the Austrians into
those of the Russians, and vice versa.
The Litovskain Russ" reports that
an inhabitant of Kovno, named Kupritz,
who was acting as first aid with the
Russian troops during the fighting in
East Prussia, was killed with a sabre
lance by u wounded German dragon at
the moment when Kupritz was about to
render him first aid.

Paris, Sept. 2s.---In ale Figaro" to-
day NJ. Palm Dorreville writes con-
Cerning the financial methods by which
Germans have always proposed TO meet
the expenses Of q war.
"They divide the war into two dis
tinct periods--O) From the declara-
ton Of war to the first decisive action,
(2J from this hypothetical date TO the
conclusion Of peace.
"They then classify the resources Of
Germany into five cacegories; % Such
funds as might be available in the gold
reserve of banks, and the war chest
Of Spandau, (2) the requisitioning OF
material necessities, 81 voluntary con-
tributions, "a supplementary taxation,
90 loans.
"Confdent in their strategical con-
ception, they estimated the first period
at six weeks, and the expenditure up
to the first decisive action at 100000
900. To meet it they have used AL the
resources which were to be applied to
enterprises that had been either post
poned or suppressed by war; for in
stance, the credits voted for great pub
lie works. They may be reckoned 1t
5000 100000. The gold reserve Of the
Reichsbank and the war chest OF Span
dau provide an additional $300,0OO,OOO.
This sum of $600,000,000 constituted
the real war reserve Of Germany. The
sum of $50 900 900 had been set aside
for the budget de Ia panique-that Is,
to meet Withdrawals inevitable in time
of war and the rest has served to
cover the issue of new votes.
ITO meet upkeep and the expenses
of the war the German theorists con-
fined their calculations to the strict
minimum necessary. They considered,
as did the General staff, that not more
than 100000 men would be modified,
and reckOned tn average expense Tor
each man would amount to 81 90 day
this being the average cost during the
war of 1870. This hypothesis gives an
expenditure Of $4,500,000 day, $780,
100000 a month, or Sl,642,4OO,OOO
year.
1.-THE Reichstag voted for the war
81 100000 900, which, with the S60O,OOO'-
600 mentioned above, practically pro-
yides for a years expenditure, leav-
ing the question of raising that sum
to the government, which can either
increase existing taxation, impose ne"
taxes or, raise q loan.
Moreover, the German estimates Of
the expenditure fall short of the mark.
French economists estimate the cost
of the war at 81 day for each man.
which would mean nearly $2,2OO,OOO,-
900 for the year. In addition, the Ger
man statistics are based on an army
of 100000 men. As things are, they
will have to call up double that num-
Der. Consequently" concludes the
writer, at is only by an issue of paper
money that this exaggerated credit
system of Germany is able to keep
her head above water"

BARRETT WARNS
ON SOUTH AMERICA
Cautions Importers That Coun-
tries Now Need Money and
Mut. al Help.

John Barrett, director general OF the
Pan American Union, in a statement
Yesterday issued word of warning to
American manufacturers who are
anxious TO extend their trade in South
America. He says money is needed
badly there, as the countries in South
America are now suffering from a seri-
Gus financial stringency, for which
they are not themselves responsible.
Mr.. Barrett says he has ascertained
by cable the exact conditions in each
country.
"These advices," he says, emphasize
that what is needed at this hour in
Latin America is not so much a sup
ply of manufactured products of the
U1ited States, although required in
considerable quantities, but money
loans and advances, credits on pur-
chases, and markets at reasonable
rates for raw products which usually
