NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-The delay In
the fall Of Warsaw is due to the far
wider ambition of capturing the Rus
sian field armies. which is the domi-
nant objective OF the German general
staff. If Warsaw's occupation were
the sole consideration of the Germans,
or even II 1t were one Of several pr1n-
elpal objective, the Polish capital
would now be in possession of the
kaiser.
The actual entrance Of the Teutons
INTO Warsaw, while marking one OF
,ne most triumphal offensive cam
palgns in all history, will yet, in It,
sell, be but an incident Of the Polish
operations. The capture Of capitals
nas an immense moral effect in war
tare, but the capture Of armies brings
wars to far quicker end. The Ger
u.ans. therefore, are not wasting their
11urength by concentrating against
Marsaw, and permitting the Russian
army to move of at will to prepare
new oe1enses further to the rear.

One Soldier Killed.

BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Aug g.
One soldier and one Texan was killed
and two soldiers and two rangers
wounded in a fight with Mexican raid
ers at San Bento early today, reports

Moral Support.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Before
according moral support to any
faction in Mexico, the United States
Pan-American republics, it was de-
clared here today on good authority.
This it was said was why Secretary
Lansing had called the diplomatic
representatives of Argentina. Brazil.
Chile, Bolivia, Uruguay and Guate-
mala into conference with him on the
subject.
The United States will profit ma.
terially by joint action, it was point
ed out. It will avoid the imputa. on
Of selfish interest, it will make the
six Latin-American nations share the
responsibility for the plans success
or failure and it will give whatever
action is taken the complexion OF a
joint pan-American move to end
conditions which have caused grave
embarrassment on both American
continents.
Action, it was believed. will follow
the conference very quickly. Besides
the Mexican row it was expected the
conference would consider conditions
in Haiti.

STATION PLATFORMS
ARE FOR PASSENGERS
No More Jumping Off Into Cinder
Piles on the Middle Division
Of the P. R. R.

Passenger trainmen on the Middle
division of the Pennsylvania railroad
were yesterday notified of a new rul-
ing, relating to unloading and loading
passengers. In the future all passen-
gers will get on and off the cars at,
station Platforms. No more walking
along the tracks to rear cars or jump
ing off into cinder piles. The order
posted yesterday at all station was
issued by w. Brooke Moore, passenger
trainmaster fthe Middle division, and
is as follows:
Where a station platform does not
accommodate all the exits of pas
senger train, trainmen will direct and
require passengers to pass through the
train, either from the front or rear, to
location where they can descend
from the train to the station plat
FORM
The new rule is in accordance with
the safety first movement. At many
stations passenger trains are often so
long that. when they stop. several cars
are still beyond the wooden platforms,
and, heretofore, II has been necessary
for passengers in the cars beyond the
platforms to get off on the ties and
walk to the platforms.
Following the new order, wherever
a car stops beyond the platform proper
the tFainmen will have to make tho
passengers walk through the other
cars until they reach a point where
they can descend directly onto the
platform.
The doors of cars stopped beyond
the platforms will not be opened and
1t is expected that the new order will
prevent many accidents in the future.
