She BOUGHT QUICKLY
TO AVOID THE RISE

"He who hesitates loses OUT said a
Salem woman today, referring to the

extra supply Of sugar. She called up

told her that sugar was now 81 per
sack. She sail to wait minute while
she talked with her husband and that
she would call up again later.
Here ensued family conference on
how long the war would last and how

RUSSIAN TROOPS
READY FOR ACTION
Size of Country Makes Mobilization
Seem slow-Poles Are Promised Au-
tonomy and Freedom.

ST. Petersburg, Aug. 1j.-Russians
were counting today on becoming an
important factor very shortly in the
European war.
The war office seemed to realize that
TO the world the mobilization of the
ears troops must have seemed slow
but it was explained that this was un-
avOidable, the cOuntry's extent being
so vast that it was necessary to bring
the soldiers great distances to the
frontier
Actual army movements were kept se-
cret but it was announced that the first
line of reserves was ready for service
and that an enormous fierce was oper,
ating in Austria in the Styr valley
This column, the war office stated, was
well on its way to Lemberg. capital OF
the Austrian province of Gallieia.
1t was denied that the Germans had
occupied Russian Poland and admitted
that the Poles had been promised auto
nomy and freedom in the matters of re
ligion and language if they stood by
Russia in the pending struggle. The
opinion was expressed that they could
be counted on.
Conformation was given of a report
that shot nad brought down a Ger
man military aeroplane which wa
scouting over Suwalki and that foui
German officers were killed.
AS soon as the ear begins throwing
his forces across Germany's eastern
frontier, it was declared a change will
be seen in the situation in Belgium
since it will be absolutely necessary fol
the kaiser to weaken himself there tC
resist the Russian invasion.

GERMAN CHANCELLOR
ISSUES STATEMENT
Appeals to Americans Sense OF Fair
Play and Asks That Germany's Side
Of War Story Be Examined.

London, Aug. lj.-Much interest was
expressed here today in the war state.
ment issued Friday by Imperial Chan.
cellor Bethmann.Hollweg of Germany,
apparently mainly as an appeal to the
United States.
The message was given out officially
through the German wireless stations
aud by the Marconi Wireless company
TO the British press.
"The present war is a life and death
struggle, it said in part, between
the German and the MuseOvite races of
Russia The latter country provoked
the struggle, it was asserted, and
France and England were drawn into it
through "an unnatural alliance" with
Russia.
lnasmuch as England "stood in the
way of the German attack on the north
ern coast Of France, it was declared
Germany twas forced to violate the
neutrality of Belgium, but we had
promised emphatically to compensate
that country for all damage inflicted. "
at is with heavy heart" the
message concluded, that we see Eng
land ranged among our opponents. Eng.
land has placed herself on the side of
Russia, whose instability and whose
barbaric insolence nave helped this war,
the origin of which was murder.
:" We expected that the sense Of JUS
tce of the American people will enable
them to comprehend our situation. We
invite their opinion as to the one.sided
English Representations and ask them
to examine our point Of view in an un-
preiudiced way.
"The sympathy of the American ma
ton will then lie with German culture
and civilization, fighting against aalf
Asiatic and slightly cultured barbar.

SANEST
Fourth In History Of This
Great Day
Restrictions Greatly Lessen
The Death Toll

Chicago, July 7--Statistics com
piled here show that the country en-
| joyed the quietest Fourth in its his
tory. The figures are:
Dead, 13; by fireworks, 6; by gun
powder, A; by torpedoes, 2; by revol
yer, /.
Injured, 243; by fireworks, 105;
by gunpowder, 80; by torpedoes, 5;
by toy pistols, So; by cannon, Al;
by runaways, a.
Accidents last year were 80 dead
and 1,131 injured.
The record this year, due to the
increasing sane Fourth" movements,
Is thus far less than half of the prev.
ious year, and shows but small pro-
portion of the accidents Of a few
years ago when the use of fireworks
was practically unrestricted. The fig
ures for this year, however, may be
somewhat increased by more complete
returns.
The property loss so far reported
was trivial compared with s123,O00
last year. The yearly loss suffered
from fireworks ranged from $60,70O
in 1902 to S724,000 in 1909.
There were fewer deaths in the
celebrations this year than in any of
the sixteen years that records Of the
toll have been kept, with the excep-
tion of 1899 when only three lives
were lost. But in that year. the in
jured was reported at 1,074 or three
times that of this year.
Philadelphia report of 10 injured
was more than that of New York
which had the next largest number.
The casualty list at Pittsburgh also
was high, reaching twenty-seven, but
with no fatalities.
So stringent was the enforcement
in Chicago of the ordinance prohibit
ing the sale of firecrackers and fire.
works that only one person was killed
and three injured slightly in this city.
The names of two boys who died from
burns received in the explosion of fire.
works they had dug from rubbish near
an abandoned factory were added to
the list, however.
Curiosity led Vera Allen, eight
years old, to the spot where she had
seen boys place a torpedo on car
track. A street car came along and
exploded the torpedo, piece of it
setting fire to the fiimsy holiday dress
she wore. When her mother ex-
the flames the child was
dead.
One of the three injured was a
woman who was struck in the hip by
a stray shot.

The reports OF three accidents from

Miss Mary Pollock injured knee and

Young Terman fell at his home
Sunday and dislocated his arm at the
wrist and at the elbow. DR.. ]. Stober.
OF Lexington, was called and he sum-
moned DIR. John Maglott, Of Mans
field, in consultation. The fractures
were reduced and the lad was resting
comfortably this morning.
Miss Pollock, who had spent the
day in Lexington, was returning
home and the horse she was driving
frightened at a barking dog. The
horse, reared, plunged and threw the
young woman to the road. Her knee
and shoulder were badly bruised. The
horse was caught.
The Warner child was riding
pony about the yard of her home
when she slipped and fell to the
ground. She struck upon her thumb,
dislocating it and necessitating med

SHARP
May Not Resign Until Early
In August

Washington, July 7--Representatiye
William G. Sharp, new Ambassador tc
France, probably will resign his posi-
tion in Congress only few days be-
fore sailing for Europe, early in Aug
ust.
He intended, when he first returned
to Washington last week, to file his
resignation within few days, but be.
fore leaving for Elyria he informed his
colleagues that he would not give up
the place until about August 1.
This destroys the possibility of a
special election simultaneous with the
primary election August II, and ap-
pears to do away with necessity of
a special election to choose a success
sor to Mr.. Sharp. If the resignation
is not filed until August 1 the special
election could not be held before
September /.
BY that time the regular election
Will be only two months distant. Mr..
Sharp probably will remain in Ohio
until next week. An effort will be
made to have him make an address
at Columbus next Monday.
