Italian Socialists Hear of Chicago Woman's Attempt to Keep
 Italy Neutral.

Ferris Aug. 2.-The Giornale d'ltalia of Rome publishes a statement issued by direction of the socialist party alleging an attempt to brtbe Italian socialists to oppose Itaiy's en- trance into the war.
 An accusation of corruption against Italian socialists, made by the cri de Paris, has evoked an explanation to the effect that on May 16 last a Zurich chemist, named Nathan, was presented at a socialist councL st Bologna by M. Creulich, dean of the Swiss socialists. as having just returned from the United States, charged with a. mission by an American woman which should be of interest to Italian socialists on account of the financial dinicultis of the party.
 Nathan. asked to explain, is alleged to have said that an American woman living in Chicago ana I well known peace advocate had charged him to of- fer from s2o,00 to s40.000 to aid d peace propaganda by tne Italian so- cialists. M. Greulieh was then closely and is alleged to have given the name of Mrs Warren Springs of Chicago as that of the woman con- cerned.
 The statement adds that the social. ists passed 8 resolution deplorinF M. Greulich's participation in the affair.

The Hard Lot of Neutrals.
 (Detroit Free Press).

It Is rather surprising to read about the anti-American campaign that our Washington correspondent reports in connection with Australia and New Zealand. The antipodean peoples have heretofore shown themselves strongly sympathetic to the United States, and mem ories of the enthusias- tic reception they gave our battle ship fleet on it's world tour during MT. Roosevelt's presidency have re- mained very distinct in many minds. The Australian welcome on that oc- casion was especially cordial That the friendly sentiments then enter tained should now be transformed in to hostility is strange and its reason for alteration is elusive.

Man Not Yet Conquered. (Boston News Bureau.)

we are now approaching the end of the first year of the war. What has been learned? First that the British empire is a democracy; the government, from Egypt to India, from Canada to South Africa, from Ireland to Australia, ex- lstlng for the people and not the peo- pie Tor the government. Nothing but such war could have shown the unity of the British empire or the loyalty of the people to themselves ana the principles of their govern ment.
 Second, it has shown the unity and the patriotism of France.
 Ihlrd. it has shown the indepen- dence of the Swiss; the simplicity and efnciency of it's national offense.
 Fourth, it has shown the character of the Dutch in Holland their hos pltality to their unfortunate neigh DOTS coupled with their rugged inde- penoence and self-reliance.
 Firth, 1t has shown the unity prog ress, resources and reserves of Russia.
 sixth, it has shown the patriotism and progress of the nations of south
 
 thelr old enemy the Turk in Europe.
 seventh. it has shown the efficiency or the German military machine in which the organization and not the individual counts; it has shown Ger many organized by Prussian militar- ism. &'
 Eighth, 1t has shown that not the gun. put the man behind the gun Is the real thing; it has shown that the defense of human liberty, of human democracy is where it always was. With it's human defenders.
 The submarine is not yet the con- querer of the sailor and the warrior of the air is not yet the conqueror of cities
 The man in the trench, the war; rior with his spade, is still the de- fender. He has not yet fallen, con- quered by machinery, organization or military autocracy,
 The man and not the machine is still to the front

 Ten thousand persons were in the funeral procession, including represen- tatives of the Irish Volunteers and the Irish National Volunteers, both contin- gents in uniform and many of the former carrying rebel bikes" mem- bers of the Ancient Order of Hiber- nians ,and delegations from Irish trade and labor unions. A number of priests walked behind the hearse, which was preceded by pipers playing a dead march.
