 Unjustly Represented
 In conclusion Senator Borah said that the United States had been represented unjustly in the Senate and elsewhere as not observing it's treaties as a sort or dishonest merchant who did not live up to his contracts.
 q wish the senators who have been say ing this would rise now and give an in stance of treaty violation by the United States
 T am ready to send to the desk" he continued, ,sevidence that Great Britain
 has never had an important treaty with the United States that Great Britain has not repeatedly violated. The very diff culty in which this country now finds itself is due to. the United States forgiv- ing violations of treaties by Great Britain and accepting as, binding on it an obsolete treaty abrogated by Great Britain.

 District Attorney Whitman expressed himself highly gratified with the verdict. '1t speaks for itself.' he said. Becker is guilty. It was proved. He must pay the penalty of his crime
 Mrs. Becker remained in the sheriff's office long time after her husband had been returned to the Tombs. She was too nervous with grief to leave immediately. When she went at last she had to be as sisted from the building.
 This the sixteenth and last day of the second trial was devoted to the judge s charge and deliberation of the jury.
 In his review of the evidence Justice Seabury directed the jury that to find the defendant guilty that they must decide that the stories of Rose. Vallon and Web Der were supported by witnesses not in- volved in the crime. This centered em- phasis on the testimony of Charles Pitt, Jr., who was Becker's press agent when the former police lieutenant was master of the old strong-arm squad. Pitt was a witness for the defense at the first trial, but at the second he took the stand at the call of the district attorney.

A Million and a Half
The Petrograd correspondent of
the Times says:
The forts of Lemberg have fallen
and other Austrian armies have been
engaged in northern Galicia near
Lublin. We may yet have to chron-
icle the complete disruption OF the
dual monarchy's armed forces.
tThe operations extended over an
enormous front of 200 miles and
probably a million and a half men
were engaged. The Austrians' ex-
treme right sustained enormous
losses but the most terrible blow was
dealt them by the gallant Ruzsky's
army, which starting from Rovno,
proceeded toward the southwest
spreading fanwise so as to involve
the region north and south of Lem
berg, menacing the rear of the Lub-
lin army and threatening to cut its
communication.
ITO parry these movements the
Austrians transferred several army
corps from the west side of the Wis
tula and moving them behind Lub-
lin, hurled them at Ruzsky.
THE result of this movement is
chonicled in today's official bulletin
of victory. The Austrians' desperate
onslaught on Ruzsky's army has been
attended with a whole series of dis
asters, notably the destruction of the
Sixth army corps at Laschoff, a few
miles east of Towaszow.'

MOURNING FOR THE
DEAD AND MISSING
SAD-FACED WOMEN AND old MEN DOING THE
WORK IN THE GERMAN CITIES

Copenhagen, Sept. 5.-The Count
of Thornberg, who arrived here this
morning from trip through Ger
many, reports it is a land of mourn
ing.
Germany's last line of reserves has
been called to arms. The losses have
been colossal, the heaviest being at
Mons, Charleroi and the line before
Paris.
The streets of the cities through
which the count passed were almost
deserted and the tramways, omni-

ways are being conducted by women.
Germany is almost denuded of men,
both old and young.
