RUSSIA DENIES P0GR0Ms.

tians and Jews in HARMONY.

LONDON, September 2.-The Russian
embassy here has thought it desirable
formally to deny reports of pogroms
at Wilma. which it attributes to Ger
man and Austrian sources.
The embassy has received a dispatch
from Petrograd est. Petersburg) de-
claring that these reports are without
foundation and that Wilma is perfectly
calm The Christian and Jewish popu-

Sedan Day Celebrated.

Sedan day was celebrated here with
iubilation because of the victorious news
which arrived from the east and west.
The Russian defeat at Ortelsburg recalls
Sedan by the huge number of prisoners
taken.
"The Brazilian military attache at Ber-
lin writes that the German victory did
not come as a surprise to those who wit
messed their maneuvers in peace. and de-
clares that the effect of the Krupp heavy
artillery is astonishing.
1.-The Times correspondent at Amiens
reports that the Germans came UP like
food raised by storm
During the first month of the war more
than 2.O0O,oGO German volunteers came
forward.
The chief of the German sanitary de-
partment officially declared there are
many proofs that the Eng ish and French
are using dumdum cartridges.
THE state of health of the German
army is good. noted hygienists accom-
panying the army"
The statement conflicts to some extent
with one issued by the French embassy
earlier in the day, which speaks of the
progress of the Russian offensive army.
The official claim Of the Germans, how
ever. that 1000 Russians were captured
exceeds in magnitude any operation thus
far recorded.

BIG POSTAL STATIONS
FOR HEART Of CITY

Washington soon will have two big
financial postal stations and mail deposit
tories in the heart of the city to replace
the present main post office at Pennsyl-
vania avenue and 18th street northwest.
On October l the present station 6, on
G street near 18th street northwest, will
be transferred to the LIE Droit building.
at sth and F streets northwest, and De-
cember /. station C. now at 1910 G street

Bankers Have Backed of the ad-
Foreign Manufacturers. whicn A ,ns
English and German manufacturers Of
electrical equipment have had over the
United States in their competition for
South American trade has been that their
bankers and capitalists have stood back
Of them. The German bankers would ar
range to finance a projected electric rail-
way in one Of the republics of the south
and stipulate as condition Of the in
vested money that all supplies. as far as
practical. should be purchased from the
fatherland's producers. In this way Ger
man and English capital has worked in
close cooperation for the expansion Of
the German and English export trade
With the sources Of Europe's export
stopped and with the boarding and with
drawal Of all her capital for destruction
| in her own family quarrel. it is up to
the business men of this country to take
as legacy the old worlds methods and
placing Of foreign investments Of our
capital.
South America is a growing market for
! all kinds Of electrical machinery and sup
plies. Brazil has just commenced a pro-
gram for the extensive use Of electrically
developed waterpowers which will cause
| her to demand hundreds Of thousands
| Of dollars worth of highly finished ma
chinery. Imports of machinery and ep-
planes for the maintenance of electric
railways and central stations and for the
| construction Of new ones should bring US
heavy business. We ought to be helped
/ to this trade by the many American
electrical engineers now in service in
South America. As one illustration the
| principal electrical needs of the beauti-
full Rio de Janeiro are met by one central
| station company. in the charge OF ar
American engineer.
| 1t is said that the American goods in
general are far superior to those of
European countries. especially of Ger
many. but that they are not always suf-
| f1ciently superior to overcome the diff
| ferences in cost. However. in such
markets as are forced by the war to de-
pend entirely on US for their electrical
supplies, the better quality Of our goods
would likely make it difficult to dislodge
US when Europe begins again to practice
the competition of peace.

ran TO rake BUSINESS. prep ara
tons to take up Europe's business
where she left it. and they are de-
termined to lay foundations for a per-
manent expansion. One of our trade
journals has endeavored to do it's part
toward clinching opportunity by print
ing its recent issues half in Portu-
guese and Spanish and distributing
copies among all importers of cleo
trical wares and electrical concerns
throughout South America.
Such parts of Africa as are able to
keep business free from the incubus
of war hysteria should also prove good
markets for our electrical goods. We
also. according to authorities on cleo
trical export, should have increased
sales in Canada, India and China.
Our losses in this branch of exports
to Europe, on the other hand. will be
very real. Last year the Americas
electrical export to England was
greater than the similar English export
to the United States by about 5000, 900
Germany took electrical goods from the
United States to the value Of $215, 900,
while she took $4,000 worth Of such
goods from England. America sold
only about $4,000 worth of electrical
machinery to Austro- Hungary, a neg

CO., England has been selling about ST.

tainly fall to us. Altogether, England
does an annual business with her colo
mics in electrical exports of about SO

English colonies somewhat more than
$11 100000. In regard TO South America.
Argentina has been taking yearly totals
Of electrical goods from England of 81

United States. America has had the ad-
vantage in trade with Brazil. selling ST.
0OO.O0O worth to Great Britain is ST.,
$50. 600.
OF course. Germany has come in for a
great slice of the South American trade.
For example. most of the electric light
companies OF Chile are German, and they
have favored German supplies wherever
possible. German electrical engineers
and German capital have been sown
thick throughout South America. and the
empire has been one OF the most success
full exporters OF electrical equipment and
supplies to these countries.
BY the time European countries set
about the CALLING business of reconstruc-
ton. the United States should have firm
ly established, at least, the world su-
premacy Of its electrical industry.

choppers, tear to their meal like
starved dray horses cantering for
their oats. A few have time to rinse
the SCOT and charcoal from their
faces, while others sit down to the
table with hands soiled from their
labor and faces yet reeking with per-
spiration. The eyes of a most affec-

is not feasting; it is boiling, cram

of beans and strong coffee. Within a
few minutes they rise, take their dust
covered hats, and rush to the scene of
toll. If Nature permits, they may
converse on the way, edging in a word
now and then between the resonance
of hiccoughs. At night, ten long
hours having been taken in expanding
the whole energy of each body, the
men take more time at the table. In

exhaustive tension of the days labor,
they retire to their Creeping" hunks

How to succeed, new to get on in
the world-that is the problem that
millions of earnest men and women
are striving to solve, each in his own
way, but all, consciously or uncon-
%sciously, observing the same general
principles.
There is nothing in such an effort
at variance with the highest moral
standards. In fact the Jealous pur-
suit of such an object has a beneficial
reflex action upon the character as
it has upon the physical and mental.
nature.
Saving has a beneficial moral eff

is acting a lie, is essentially immoral
and breeds many other irregularities
and sins. On the other hand, temper
ance and integrity go h~and-in-hand
with thrift. This course is the harder
one. but it is doing the hard things
that develops strength and character.
Successfully resisting the tempta-
ton to extravaganza, at the same time
that it stifens your mental and moral
backbone, increases your material re-
