Predicts War Will Be a Draw

The Boston News Bureau
prints the following letter from
a leading Philadelphia physician,
who is at the same time mill
tary authority, now at the front.
to Boston friend:
"The Eastern war area is very
interesting. Germany will eventu-
ally occupy Warsaw and two
railroad centers, fortify and en-
trench and hold Russia at bay,
then devote her time and strentg
to the Western campign. If she
is able to do this, and | think she
is, there will be little fear OF
Roumania entering the war.
Turkey plays minor role
will eventually lose Constants
nople and all her European pos
sessions and will be the football
of all nations. After the occu'
patton of Warsaw Germany will
offer advantageous peace terms
to Russia, allow her to have ;
free hand with Turkey, and Rus
STA will eventually accept Gal
opinion to the contrary; other
wise the war will last into 1916.
The Western campaign viii
remain in 'statu quo Even /
Germany should be able to taxi
Paris or Calais, she is not apt o
foolish eonugh to invade Eng
land, a few Zeppelin and Taub
raids will no doubt be made. o
one thing you may be sure: TIL
allies will not gain or cross tn
Rhine in 1915.
Germany will continue t
give a good account of herself

to be called out until the usua

ments in bond from Italy to
Germany via the St. Cotthard
tunnel. Should Italy side with
the allies, Germany would find
herself in a precarious position,
and would have to depend OF
Scandinavia, Denmark and Hol-
land for some minor SUPPLIES.
"The war will end, no doubt
in draw. | do not think it is
the aim of Germany to acquire
territory; she may eventually
hold Belgium. Your sympathy
will naturally turn toward the
country where your forefathers
came from, but it behooves yor
to consider cause and effect-tht
ultimate result. If Germany
wins the world would face an
other NapoleonIc period, prob
ably not one-man power. bu
a one-country power.
Should England win Ger
many will be partitioned int
small kingdoms and principal
ties, and assume the same posi-
ton she held prior to 1879. Ger
many, being the most virile, tn
| healthliest race, will in two o
three decades assume her natur
al position, and will eventual,
come together with her natura
: ally, England. Both nationns be
: long to the same tree, and mus
t recognize their mutual advan

e my of both countries. Englan
does realize this. but she has t
link her fortune with Russia fo
self-preservation.

return. His great hope for years had
been to travel abroad. He wrote to
Eloise that at last he had his hearts
desire.
Eloise was glad that he was having
happy time before settling down into
business life. Now she had not heard
from him for some months. This wor-
ried her somewhat. Then her guar
dian was acting strangely. She had
been planning to secure quite a sum
of money through the sale of small
piece of property Uncle Reuben had
left her, to help her Aunt Huldah
build an addition to her home. To
this the city lawyer had paid no at
tention. Two monthly payments had
thing-so. picturing one Of those
avaricious, grasping ogres of lawyer
she had read about, Eloise started for
the city to demand an explanation for
these irregularities.
Eloise had the address Of the law
yer, but first went to install herself
at the home of friend of her aunts,
not knowing but that her business in
the city might take up several days.
Her aunt had filed her mind with
decided prejudice against Lawyer
Rolfe Eloisa set her lips very firmly
as she reached the address of the at
torney's Office She was inexperienced
in city ways. SThe hurry and hustle
of the streets had confused her. She
stood before a door on the second
floor of big Office building. It bore
the name of Adrian Rolfe. There
we're the names of other attorneys
also. The hall was somewhat dim.

and looked into the store windows for

Four times during the morning she
repeated the calls There was disap
pointment each time. She went to
the house of the friend of her aunt
where she was stopping and recited
her experience.

who was old and cranky and suspi
cious, just like Aunt Huldah.
"Oh, do you think so?" murmuret
the distressed Eloise. Then what an

NEW YORK, Aug 28.-Bradstreets
Review Saturday says:
Unlifting factors continue 10 assert
themselves in trade and industrial cir
cles. but at the same time there is a
degree Of unevenness in particular
sections and certain industries that de-
prives the situation Of uniformity.
However optimism as to the future
seems undated; our international po-
litical relations. apparently grave ear
ly in the week appear TO have imprOv-
ed: the southern situation is brighter;
money everywhere is plentiful at low
rates; collections are somewhat easi-
er. bank clearings excel those Of
1912 and 1913 while Of course, dwarf
ing those of 1914: railway traffic is
heavy; foreign orders for manufactur-
ed war supplies continue of large pro-
portions higher prices prevail for iron
and steel, premiums rule on some fin
ished articles for early delivery; mills
are falling behind on shipments; cop
per has emerged from its recent spell
OF dizziness; lumber, long depressed, is
in better shape
ION the other hand. buyers have not
entirely divorced themselves from
conservatism; retail trade though
good in some sections, is not altOgeth-
er favorable; wet, cool weather in the
west having checked distribution;
rates for foreign money continue to de-
cline paucity of dystuffs curtails Ope-
rations in some textile lines; the wheat
crop movement from the southwest
has been held back by wet weather at
threshing, and this seasons exports
of American wheat show a decrease Of
- per cent from the two months OF
last year."

extended into the smaller markets of
the country, with a more favorable
