BRYAN PRAYS FOR PEACE
Special Peace Day Services Held Sun.
day in Carnegie Hall.

New York-Hope that the Euro
pean war will be the last object les
son of the horrors Of strife, and that
after it the effort of man will be de-
voted to production rather than de-
struction, was expressed Sunday by
Secretary Of State Bryan at a special
peace day service at Carnegie Hall.
To-day, when q number of nations,
all our friends, have been drawn into
the vortex Of war" said Secretary
Bryan, our first duty is to use such
influence as We may have to hasten
the return Of peace. There will be
ample time afterward to discuss ways
and means for preventing future ap-
peals to arms.
Our interests are SO entwined with
the interests Of other lands that no
nation can live or die unto itself alone.
If we had no higher reason for en-
couraging conditions conducive to
peace, we should find ample justifica-
tion in the fact that burdens Of war
no longer are borne entirely by its
direct participants.
I'VE must not be discouraged If this,
the greatest Of all wars. broke out
just when we were most hopeful of
the substitution of reason for force in
the settlement of international dis
putes. 1t may be that the world needs
one more awful object lesson to prove
conclusively the fallacy of the doc
trine that preparedness for war can
give assurance of peace. This assump-
ton is built upon the theory that
peace rests on fear. whereas all his
errors in international affairs arise
from a failure to understand the fun
damental truth that moral principles
are as binding on nations as on indi-
viduals"

London.-Lieutenant General Hell

General Staff, has been removed from
that office by the kaiser, according 70
report received here.
An Amsterdam dispatch to the Daily

Continuing, the dispatch says the

but General Won Moltke preferred to

The emperor, adds the dispatch,
wished to detach a large number Of
airships and aeroplanes to attack Eng.

Europe.
The great effort of the allies to en-
velope the German right may be said
to be in operation again and it is be-
lieved the whole French column from
Roye northward to Arras is moving
eastward against the German posi-

There is evidence from other

They have evacuated West Flanders
and their attack on Antwerp is be-

the Belgians busy and to prevent them
from operating on what would be Gen

But the battle is not yet over and
it may be many days before either
side attains its objective. Except for
the forces absolutely needed else
where, the Germans are maintaining
their strength in France and besides
fighting off the French efforts on their
right, are themselves remaining on
the offensive on the French right.
The army of the crown prince,
which has been in the thick OF the
fighting since the Germans began
their invasion of France, made an at
tempt to slip through the wood OF La.
Crurie, but the French report says
was thrown back to the north OF the
Varennes-La-Harazee Vienna-La-v Vile

part of the Argonne forest, so that
the French must have made a con-
siderable advance in this region and

have been keeping up a heavy artil.

The real work is being done on the
