BERLIN PRESS ANXIOUS
Is Preparing People For De-
feat, Say Dutch---Moy Yield
Certain Points

LONDON, Oct. 5.-A Rotterdam dis
patch to the Daily Telegraph says:
"The Germans in Rotterdam are
aghast at the tone of the German
newspapers which arrived today. Only
one meaning can be attached to what
they contain-they are preparing the
German people for defeat and the
ruin of their hopes.
Official messages ask that judgment
be suspended if news should arrive
that the German troops have been
compelled to abandon certain positions
THE British troops are mentioned
as pushing on by the sheer weight OF
their masses, and the French are ad-
mitted to have taught severe lesson
A week ago such statements would
have meant the suppression Of the
newspaper printing them"

Resolved. That the United Spanish
War Veterans, body composed of men
peculiarly fitted to appreciate the
blessings of peace from their actual
and personal experience of the hor-
rors of war, desire to pledge their 10y
al and answering support to the Pres
ident of these United States and to
urge all citizens of this country to
stand solidly behind the Chief Execu-
tive in these trying times.
"Mr. Wilson yet has work to do. A
Democratic majority in both houses OF
the Congress is indispensable to his
successful performance of that work
The resolutions o. the veterans which
reflect the publis mind and conscience
make it assured that Mr.. Wilson will
be given that majority, A vote against
Democratic nominee for the House
of Representatives or the Senate is a
vote against the Wilson Administra-
ton. The personality of the candidate
himself is a minor matter.
"The duty before the American peo-
pie it to uphold the hands OF an Am
erican President who, having averted
one war, still has before him the mo-
less difficult problem of seeing us
safe through the perils of another war
in which we are not and must not be
involved"

KAISER'S PARROTS ARE

PETROGRAD, Oct. 5.-A letter re-
ceived here from Russian officer,
who is camping on the estate of En-
peror William at Rominten, East Prus-
STA, says:
Williams estate is magnificently
equipped and we have everything at
our disposal which we could wish. We
are enjoying particularly delicious din
ners prepared by his fine cooks.
His park. swarms with rare animals
and birds. We are teaching his par
rots the Russian language and they are

ter with compliments I should blush to

POSSIBILITIES in
EASTERN TRADE
Opportunity For Development of
American Trade in China Was Never
Better-COttOn Goods in Demand in
Far East.
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.)

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-A we'll known
Shanghai importer now in the Unit
ed States, is urging producers here
to turn their attention to the Far
Eastern trade. American manufacture
ers have the best opportunity ever
presented to develop great trade
with China now that commercial rela-
lions have been suspended with the
warning European nations.
E. L. Koehler has been in the east
seventeen years, conducting an i'm
porting house in China, dealing with
goods manufactured on the continent,
handling many articles made in Aus
tria-Hungary, Germany and England.
Unable now to import merchandise
from those countries, he has come to
this side to substitute American made
goods. He believes there is good
prospect for American manufacturers
to capture large part of the Chinese
commerce. Cotton goods are especial
ly in demand there at present
Chinese merchants buy almost sole
ly articles with well established trade
marks, and as many of these will
cease to be exported for some time on
account of the war, Mr.. Koehler said
one of the things to be learned is to
export to China not the goods it is as
sumed the Chinese trade will take but
the class of products that For East
erners demand.

Russian volunteer ranker in letter to
the Reich.

inferno in which have been living for

"In the midst of death one changes

SPANISH WAR VETERANS
APPROVE PEACE POLICY
eniOn Endorsing Foreign Policy
Stand by the President and
Uphold Louisville COurierJOurna

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 5.-The vet
Grams of the Spanish-American War,
who have been in annual session here,
adopted resolutions approving the for
eign policy of President Wilson's Ad-
ministration. The Courier-Journal-
over which Marse Henry Watterson so
ably presides-said editorially in COM
menting on this remarkable tribute to
the President:
at is an axiom of American politics
that there is no such thing as defeat
ing War President. By stress of cir
cumstances over which he had no con-
troll Mr.. Wilson has become a War
President. By his control of circum-
stances, which were nothing if not
stressful, Mr.. Wilson now occupies an
even more strongly intrenohed posi-
ton as a Peace President. His double
hold on the confidence and loyalty OF
the American people is accurately
voiced In the following resolutions
adopted yesterday by the Spanish-Am-
erican War Veterans assembled here
in annual encampment:
'"Whereas the members Of this as
sociation have seen during the past
two years, the gradual development Of

woman succeeded in getting her speci-
men through the customs and in safety
to a New York hotel. There, however.
his presence became known, and in a
few hours an inspector appeared to
carry off the obnoxious visitor. Still
the mongoose does ge: in and does es-
cape when he is in. A Cape Cod far
Ter whose poultry yard suffered night
ly raids lay in wait for the intruder
and succeeded in shooting an animal
the like OF which neither he nor his
friends had seen before. Ultimately
the authorities recognized it as a mon
goose, but TO this day no one knows
what series OF adventures led 10 his
presence in Cape Cod.
His presence in this hemisphere at
al. IS due to the mistaken notion that
he would be invaluable in Kidding the
cane fields OF the West Indies of rats.
In 1872 n Mr.. Espent introduced nine
OF the animals, four males and five fe-
males. into Jamaica for this purpose.
They increased with such startling
rapidity that in 1890 a government
commission endeavored to find some
way OF discriminating the pests. Evil
dence collected at that time showed
that the harm the creatures did far
outweighsd any benefit to the sugar
and coffee plantations. In the mean
tine attempts had been made to in
