CASPIAN LAKE NOTES.

The season is now at its height
and nearly all the cottages are filled.
The rain of the past two weeks has
been very grateful to the farmers in
this vicinity, although it has damp
ened the spirits of the campers
somewhat.
The golfers say that the course
was never as good as now, and it is
patronized as literally as ever. One
of the tennis courts has been put in
commission and the other will soon
be. The club house has an abund-
ance of water and new lockers have
been added.
The Landons went to the Peace
celebration at ST. Adams, and re-
ported that it was one of the best
pageants that they had ever seen.
Mrs. Stebbins has a brother from
Chicago visiting her.
Master Kenneth Walker of West
Newton, Mass, is the camp mail car
rier this year.
ID. G. Sanborn of Richford is Wis
iting his brother at Birch Lodge.
Miss Lucille Robinson of Morris
vile is visiting a college classmate,
Miss Helen Cutler.
Mr.. Stone, who has been teaching
at a summer school in Hampton, Va,
is expected at camp this week.
The Harebs of Tauton, Mass, are
some of the latest arrivals.

SAVED BY SELLING
England Hears Turkey Has Bought
 German Cruisers

LONDON, Aug. 12-The Daily Mail says that on Monday the German government again approached Bel gium through Holland, asking that Belgium reconsider it's refusal to all low the German army to cross Bel gium, pointing out that Germany had no quarrel with Belgium, and that such action would save the useless
 expenditure of money and blood. Belgium again refused, the Daily
 Mail says. It understands that Fur
 key has assured the British govern ment that the cruisers Goeben and Breslau, which are now in the Darda - nelles, will be disarmed, but that there are reasons to believe that Fur key has purchased them and intends putting them into commission.
 This, in the opinion of the Daily Mail, would be q grave breach of neutrality. If Turkey intends to en-
 ter the war as Germany's ally or to
 pay of fold scores against Greece, the Daily Mail says, "she must be
 warned that in either case retribu- i tion will be swift and certain. It ap- pears that Germany offered to sell the Goeben to Turkey some time ago 1 but the deal failed because Turkey kstipulated that the vessel be deliv- cred with crew"

BRUSSELS, Aug. 12.-On the report that operations on an extensive scale were iminent, correspondent by per- mission of the war control. made a cir cult along twenty miles of the Belgian front. visiting the extreme advance, talking with officers and men. The Belgians are on the alert as important bodies of German cavalry are making their way through the country above Liege, proceeding in the direction of Tongres and St. Trond.
 The correspondents impression is that no heavy fighting is likely in Bel gium Limburg, where the Germans have little or no infantry. By the Op- position offered by Belgian troops at Liege, the Germans lost precious time which was profitably employed by the French and British in massing troops at Weinberg. 'afl
 All day forces have been disposed so as to be supported by a fortified mass at many chief points, but little or noth- ing has been done around Brussels. It is thought that this city is used as a bait to attract Germans. The Belgian people are anxious regarding Brussels, as the German cavalry are carrying their raids nearer the capital but such considerations are unlikely to have any effect on the general staff.

At Least $1OO,OOO,OOO Will Be Needed to Take the Place of Duties on the Usual Imports from the Warning Countries
TOBACCO AND BEER
 WILL BEAR BRUNT
An Increase of Income Tax Which is Favored Would Not Become Available Until July 1 of Next Year
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATcHl


 WASHINGTON, August 12.-The problem oi raising about s100,O00,O0o to offset the government loss in import duties expected to result from the European war, will be the subject Of d conference between Secretary McAdoo and House Leader Under. "ood, tomorrow.
 Treasury experts tonight completed a statement showing the imports from the war zone. They would not hazard an estimate of the probable loss in revenues, though informally il is admitted that the total might be in the neighborhood of $1O0,0O0,OOU for the year. Figures also have been prepared to demonstrate what might be raised by increased taxes on h- quors and tobacco and by adding to the income tax.
 Representative Underwood and Senator Simons, chairman of the senate finance committee, are making a thorough study of the situation, but will not attempt to frame a definite plan of action until Secretary Me Adoo has outlined the actual condi- tons. Then the advice of President Wilson will be sought.
 The normal revenue on importa- tions from the countries now affected Great Britain. Germany, Austro- Hungary, Russia, France and Bel gium approximate s116,O00,000 a year. Germany exports many things that the customs experts say may be provided by England or other coun- tries.
 Japan might take advantage of the opportunity to increase it's expo7ta- tions of articles normally supplied by Germany The chief loss will be in pottery, faces, embroideries, toys, l dyes, etc.
 Among schemes being informally | considered is one to change the in ternai revenue tax on cigars and to- | bacco, making it an ad valorem tax | instead of a flat tax on amounts. In l this way it is estimated about s40,- 1 100000 could be raised. From an in l creased beer tax it is estimated that 1 $30,000, 900 could be brought in. No 1 change in the income tax would be effective until after July 1, next
 Senator Shields. of Tennessee, is- sued a statement today urging the use of the income tax to provide 1 any additional revenue needed T favor an increase in the income tax" he sad, thus placing the burden OF the wealth of the country, which al- though receiving greater protection and benefits, always has borne, pro- portionately, the smallest share of it's maintenance"
 1 The treasury statement today showed that the custom receipts for the month of August up to date az gregated s7.766,53S against $10.205,9 ,95S for the same period last year. and 1 that since July the total has been sS0. .755,0O0, about s7.O00,0O0 less than during the first six weeks of the last fiscal year.
