THE LAST GREAT
EUROPEAN WAR.

History repeats itself--but with varia-
tons. A hundred years ago France alone,
under the leadership of Napoleon, faced
Germany, Austria, Italy, Russia, and
Great Brittian-AND WON.
At thirty-six, Napoleon had conquered
every nation of Europe and in the battle
of Austerlitz in 1905, practically brought
the continent under the subsection of the
French army. Then Austria, Germany
and Russia formed the great coalition
against France, only to be beaten in bat
tie after battle until they were forced to
sue for peace. England, thanks to her inn
pregnable navy, was the only nation not
forced to acknowledge Napoleon's rule.
1t was the snow covered sleeps of Rus
STA rather than the military science of Eu-
rope that finally turned the tide against
him.
Thespresent European crisis gives par
ticular opportuneness to the offer of Ma
poleon's Memoirs, announcement of which
is made in another column of this paper.
Few books throw more Illuminating
and interesting light on the underlying
causes of those years of conflict than the
fascinating story of the man whose mete-
oric career left Europe sown with the seeds
of discomfort.
Eventually" said Napoleon, Russia
will rule the world" The present conflict
will go far towards determining the truth
of that prophecyand day by day it will fur
nish an absorbing illustration of the ad
vance which has been made in the art OF
warfare since the days, only century ago
when France alone had Europe at her feet
Napoleon's Memoirs, written by his
private secretary, Baron DeMeneval, will
give you a clearer insight into that ire
mendous upheaval of Europe which the
present crisis seems destined to reproduce
We were fortunate in securing the story
of "The Marshal" appearing exclusively
in our paper. 1t is beautiful story Of
French history in the time of Napoleon
Our readers are greatly pleased with it
The Madisonian will always give you the
best.

DUTCH GROW BITTER
AGAINST ENGLAND

ROTTERDAM, Oct. There is grow
ing bitterness of feeling throughout Hol-
land against England because of her
interference with Dutch shipping and
her holding up of cargoes of foodstuffs
and needed supplies. such as copper.
This feeling is not pro-German, but 1t
is frankly anti-British.
Although it is reported that an ar
rangement has been made between Eng
land, the United States and Holland
whereby foodStuffS are no longer 10 De
held up, Hollanders generally resent the
concessions their government was com
pelled to make and especially the fact
that they were compelled to place them
selves under obligations to England in
order to prevent complete paralysis or
the Dutch trade.
Every ship that sails to or from Hol-
land Is being held up by the British and
French fleets. and ransacked from stem
to stern. Charges are made that the m
tenational mails are interfered with
although up to the present these ailega-
tions have not been officially lndorSed
by the Dutch government
While the Queen and court circles
have been inclined to sympathiZe with
the German cause. the plain !)utch
burghers have been, and still are, FRANK
lv anti-German. They look upon Bel
GUMS fate as what can be expected Tor
Holland il Germany wins the war But
England's action in carrying the right
to search to the present extreme has
absolutely annihilated all sympathy
with her in Holland.
All the facts relating to the holding
UP of the Holland-America liners en-
route from New York and Philadelphia
are only becoming known here now: The
Dutch national pride has been badly
hurt by learning that when British
commander took possession OF the Moor
6an, and took that vessel into Queens
town harbor he ordered the captain
down from his own bridge.
Even Englishmen here declare that
this was a conspicuous example OF
disregard for ethics and tactlessSess.
There is much wonder here as to'what
will be the result when similar tactics
are followed by British warship COM

UNDERSTANDING ON

State Department officials declared
emphatically today that the stage or
diplomatic negotiations with Great Brit
ain over seizure of contraband and con-
ditional contraband Of war had not yet
reached that of formal protests. Sign
ing of a formal agreement between -he
two nations is not in contemplation
even in the future, it was stated. Some
sort of "gentlemen's agreement "a
mutual understanding-will be reache1
soon, ii is expected.
Negotiations here between British
Ambassador SpringRice and state De-
partment heads and at London between
Sir Edward Grey and Ambassador Page

Administration officials believe the
principal contention of this Government
for unrestricted shipment of foodstutfs,
agreed to by Great Britain, leaves but

T0day'S War
Summary
By JOHN EDWIN NEvIN.

JAPAN-Constant bombardment
by land and sea of the German
fortified positions of Kiachow
have resulted in several fires be-
ing started inside the Notifications.
The Japanese expect that the gov
ernor must soon surrender, but
they anticipate a spectacular dash
for freedom by the German squad
ron inside of the harbor. A spe-
cial Japanese squadron has been
detailed to attack them as soon
as they emerge.
FRANCE-Heavy naval guns,
manned by naval gunners, have
been sent to the right and left of
TIE battle line north of Paris in a
final effort definitely to outflank
the Germans. The British Indian
troops, who land at Marseilles,
are reported as already on the fir
ing line.
ENGLAND-Interest continues
to center in the bombardment of
Antwerp because of fears that it
cannot long hold out. The war Of
flee has no additional word regard
ing the operations in France, other
than they continue successful"
BELGIUM-King Albert is in
personal charge of the defense Of
Antwerp, which is being subjected
to a constant bombardment by
German field artillery. Most of
the villages which make up the
suburbs of Antwerp have been de-
stroyed by the Germans.
RUSSIA-The war office Of
ficially announces distinct victor
les over the Germans in Suwalki
province, Russian Poland, and de-
clares that the main Russian army
is already engaged with the COM
bined Austro- German army in Ca
licia, near the first line of the
Cracow defenses.
SERVIA-It is admitted that
the Servians cannot take Sarajevo
capital of Bosnia, by storm, but
it is declared that the general Of
fensive of the combined Montene-
grin-Servian army in both Bosnia
and Herzegovina is continuing, and
that the attempts of the Austrians
to retake Semlin have failed.
GERMANY-The German war
office statement today denies that
the Germans have given way be-
fore the allied assault. 1t is stated
that an evident French thanking
movement is in progress, but that
steps have been taken to frustrate
il. The French operating from Toul
are declared to have met with Sc
rious reverses.
The Washington times., 1914-10-02
Three Branches Merged.

The administrative and fiscal affairs
of the office were likewise comprised Of
three executive branches. that of the
assistant postmaster. having charge of
general executive detail; that of the
cashiers division. having charge of
finances pure and simple, and that of
the money order division, dealing solely
with money order matters. These three
branches have been merged into the
division of finance, under Mr. Corridor.
The new arrangement is in accordance
with the plan of reorganization initiated
by the Postoffice Departmet in a num-
Der of large cities. and the Washington
plan has profited by these reorganiza-
tions to the extent of a greater simplifi-
cation of machinery.
The main difference between the
| Washington and the other plans is the
complete elimination of the office OF the
assistant postmaster in Washington.
Postmaster Praeger believes the great
est advantage in this reorganization lies
| in the ability to give a more efficient
| service in handling the NAL. 1t enables
| the same force of men to be shifted
from one "emergency" to another.
