An Opportunity for Investors

Securities, which were already low.
have this week been quoted In Wall
Street much under their level OF per-
manent value and UNEXPECTEDLY favor
! able investment opportunities have
been created by the unsettlcmcnt which
the European war menace has spread
through the financial world. Il IL not
In good times, It Is in bad times, 1t is
in times precisely Ike these that money
is made by investors.
The prices current for American
stocks and bonds represent reductions
on Europe's account and not because
OF any fundamental unsoundness in
the economic position of the United
States. There IS every reason. there
fore. why persons possessed OF avail
shares and obligations pressed for sale
as bargains in the light of their endur
ing merit and should take advantage
of this ocCa sion when good American
values are being sacrificed as a result
Of foreign necessity.
This is not the time to contract
domestic holdings of securities. II II
the time to increase commitments; and
the statement IS made without seeking
to minimize the destructive effect of
European war waged on any extern
sive scale.
For more than generation Europe
has been accommodating large aggre-
gate OF American securities, obtained
for the most part in periods of panic
disturbance here when this country was
obliged by domestic circumstances 10
/ find market at any cost for It's In
vestments Nothing less than war
OF horrld dimensions or the prospect
of It would induce Europe to let go
any large part OF these holdings.
/ II has been European selling which
has preripitated the fresh decline in
the Wall Street share list, with bonds
suffering proportionately. II there Is Il
continuation OF European liquidatiDg
pressure THE SUN Is of the opinion
| that American investors should wei
come and seize the opportunity to
benefit ut the unfortunate expense of
| foreign investors, thus reversing the
process by which American stocks and
bonds have found Judgment abroad In
the last forty years.
When there has been such shrink
age Of quoted values as has taken place
the investor need not concern himself
very much with the possibility that
there may he further contraction after
he has made his purchase Tested by
the experiences Of the past and Judged
by the promise OF the future of the
United States, American values were
quoted yesterday IN Wall Street at bet
ter than bargain prices. Any add
tional concessions which European In
vestors may make can only enhance
the attractiveness of the bargains.

Fifteen OF the twenty Democratic
Representatives in Congress from this
city. inilamcd with wrath against the
pragmatiSm of the Hon. DUDLEY FIELD
MAIoNE. have highly resolved to ask
Mr.. WILSON to restrain that diligent
amateur from his political pleasures
and conlinc him 10 his official duties and
collection of duties. There is to be a
conference" at the White House this
afternoon; a meeting which may turn
out 10 hc more of monologue than the
bold bcllers OF the cat expect.
If Mr.. MALONE NEEDLES with matters
that are none of his concern the ag
grieyed Fifteen should remember that
imitation is the slncerest ilattery. MT
MAIoNE's political interferences have
high precedent; If he seeks TO regulate
certain candidates. he but conforms with
the modern habit and passion; II he
won't mind his own business he proves
thereby his devotion 10 the present
American science of government. And
such an engaging young Warwick II Is
with so profound a discretion, such
tact. knowledge. dexterity. such miracu
lous success IN nursing Democratic
unity.
We fear that the Fifteen or theti
delegates will find their valOr oozinl
out at the palm of their hands as they
approach the White House. What un
bridled audacity to complain of ar
official whose intelligent comprehensive
Of and benevolent activity in the poll
tics Of New York are not second ever

1t can hardly be doubted that history
will lay heavy need OF blame upon
Austria Hungary for the war which
was formally declared yesterday upon
Servia. Even should the conflict be
limited to the two States Immediately
involved the moral aspects Of the event
will not be improved. though the dire
consequences may he alleviated.
1t cannot be denied. and there Is no
reason to deny, that Servia has given
grounds for anger to her more powerful
nelghbor. But il is not credible that
the Austrian accusations are true IN
their fullest purpOrt; 1t Is not even
probable that the Seryian Government
was privy to the cOnspiracies which re-
suited in the murder of the Archduko
FRANCIS FERDINAND. II may have been
wilfully blind and Indifferent to anti.
Austrian agitation and Pan-Slav propa-
gandiSm but there is neither crime non
cause for war in that attitude. Moth
ing. in fact, could be more natural; II
must be admitted, however, that moth
ing could be more eXaSperatlng TO the
Vienna authorities.
In a word, the friction between the
two Governments has been serious fol
years and of late 1t had become acute
but there was nothing In II which might
not have been smoOthed out by diplO
macy. In the murders mt Scrajevo the
| Austrans in fact gained strong nd
vantage in the controversy. In 50 fal

Above all. RUSSIA, the friend, ally an,

The ultima tum served last Thursday
upon the offender was not demand
for reiress, 1t was provocation to
resistance. It was not framed to pre-
serve peace but to inclte war. Really
the reply made by Servia was marvel
sire to avoid trouble. 1t refused moth
ing of the Austrian demands and con-
coded the greater part of them In the
fullest extent. Some little rag of con-
tention 1t ventured on to save the
country's self-respect, 10 spare Its pco-
pie from absolute AFFECTION. But to all
intents and purposes the Servian note
left no scrap of grievance on which to
base quarrel. II its surrender was
not complete enough. then II offered to
submit to arbitration.
The Austrian excuse for rejecting the
olive branch thus held out is the un-
provablc pretence that the Scrvian Of
fers were not made In good faith. In
sistcnce IL made upon the one unac-
ccpted proposal that Austrian officials
should invade Scrvia and supersede the
Scrvian machinery Of law and Justice
in tracing out and Furnishing and.
Austrian activities In Servian territory.
The impossible nature of this reQulre
mcnt must he plain 10 all the world.
All honest sentiment must back up
Servia in her refusal to abrogate her
Independence and sovereignty in such
manner. Austria herself must have
been conscious that she was asking the
impossible; and her making the demand
in the first place. her harping on 1t In
the second, and her ignoring the plea
for arbitration in the third, are pretty
nearly all the evidence the nations will
need to find her guilty OF wilfully fore
ing war on n weaker nelghbor.

dustry has not been realized except ny
its promoters. 1t will reduce the voy-
age from New York to Boston by sew
enty-four miles. Twenty-Five feet deep
at low tide when the last dredge has
been removed, aud from 100 to $50 feet
wide, 1t will permit the passage of YES
sells of deep draught at all times and Of
the largest battleships at high water.
The Cape will no longer have terrors
for trading and passenger ships; where
they enter In, either from Buzzards or
Massachusetts Bay, storm cannot reach
them. and all the way between New
York and Boston they will DO assured
OF safe passage. Twenty per
cent. OF shipping disasters on the At
lantc coast now occur along the Cape;
lIatteras has no more sinister reputn-
ton. No less than 5000 steam and
1000 sailing vessels pass through Vine
yard Sound every year, and from Prov
incetown round to Woods Hole their
pilots must be ever on guard to outwit
the treachero,s seas that beat upon
the great arm thrust out from the
mainland.
The Cape Cod Canal will be not only
boon to shipping but an opportunity
TO industry. In the valley through
which 1t passes mills and factories are
sure TO spring up from Sandwich TO
Bourne, and the western side of the
Cape in course OF time will become
great manufacturing district 1t is es-
timated that 100000 people travel be-
tween Boston and New York by water
rail routes every year; the canal will
afford an all the way water passage
absolutely safe. For naval purposes
the short cut will undoubtedly have It's
advantages and in time of war n def
mite strateglcal value.
The opening of the canal nearly 900
years after the Pilgrims landed at
Plymouth may seem like consumma-
ton unaccountably deferred, for there
has been no lack of proposals to cut
through the Cape in the last 200 years.
