PRESIDENT HAS
 FORFEITED LIBERTY
Unable to Speak at Manassas
 Observance

Washington, Sept. 14-President Wilson expressed his view of the gravity of the international situation which confronts the United States yesterday to a delegation of Virgin ians who asked him to visit the Man assass battlefield late this month.
 We are all hoping and praying that the skies may clear,' said the President. "but we have no control of that on this side of the water. and it is impossible to predict any part of the course of affairs"
 The President has reminded that some time ago he had promised to go to Manassas to dedicate a tablet.
 ''When I made the promise" the president told the delegation, things were just beginning and a great many things have happened since which have altered not only the aspect of cur own affairs but the aspect of affairs of the world My experience here day by day is that questions turn up so suddenly and have to be handled so promptly and som etimes with so much thoughtful discretion that really dare not let my thoughts go out to other matters.
 "I could not come to Manassas without having something to say. It would not be worthy Of the occasion if I did make preparations that would be worth while and that is out of the question. My thoughts are mort gagged beyond recall for the present.
 "I simply feel that I have for feited my liberty for the present and that my nearest duty is the most obvious and imperative duty. I have been obliged to say this to all invi- tations, however, tenn pting in charac- ter and I would not be worthy of your trust if I did not come to such a conclusion, because I know that you want these international matters taken care of as best we know how and I ought not to send my thoughts afield.''

measure does not make the rumor mongers more careful. Almost daily a dozen of such cases are disposed of with varying results A few nights ago a meteor fell near Constantinople, the career of the celestial wandered coming to an end with a vivid flash of light and sharp explosion. The next day it was asserted by rumor that British aeroplane had thrown bombs upon the buildings of the Sub- lime Forte.
 The disposition of the Constanti- nople newspapers, however, to pub- fish all the facts that they can obtain was recently shown in the reproduce ton by most of the newspapers here of some of the despatches which had been forwarded to America by the Associated Press correspondent. They were published merely as showing what a neutral correspondent had found on the peninsula.

FAIRY TALES AFL0AT
 IN CONSTANTINOPLE
Greeks and Armenians Believe Mythical Stories of Allies FeatS

Correspondence of the Associated Press)
 Constantinople, Aug. 25.-As in- stances of some of the remarkable war rumors afloat in the Turkish cap ital, the Associated Press correspond ent found that the following had cir culation and credence among a large number of Greeks and Armenians, and even some uninformed Turks:
 Mythical Stones.
 That American engineers were en- gagged in digging a canal across the narrow part of the Gallipoi Penin- sula; that ~1e Anglo-F'rench allies had built and put into operation a railroad twenty five kilometers long, and that the Allies were now busy re- building the Greek towns along the Dardanelles and the Aegean sea, which were destro.%d during the var 1ous bombardm ents. Lastly, that the French and English would be mas ters of the Dardanelles, Sea of Mar mora and the Bosphorus within four teen days.
 There are, Of course, no American, canal builders anywhere near the Dardanelles; there is no such railroad as the Allies are said to have built; the Greek towns are in ruin as be- fore; and the fourteen-day period al- lowed for the penetration of the straits is recurrently prolonged.
 The rumors mentioned are not the most extravagant that one hears in Constantinople, they are merely those heard most often and seemingly be- lievcd by a large number of the Greeks and Armenians.
 Seeking enlightment as to the rea- son for such an odd rumor as the presence Of American canal diggers, the correspondent learned from Greek resident that the Allies had en- gagged American engineers to dig the supposed canal because they had such success in canal building at Panama, and that the object of the canal through the Gallipoli peninsula was to afford a channel for the Allied fleet to reach Constantinople without having to pass the Dardanelles' forts, whose strength, no one here, even Greeks and Arm enians, longer doubt.
 Idea Illogical.
 The suggestion that such a canal would be the task of several years was altogether lost on the man who believed the rumor.
 The report that the Allies have built a military railroad from Sid-el- Bahr to a point twenty-five kilome- ters north in even more widely be- lieved. The truth is that the Allies would have to run the railroad in circles in order to make it twenty five kilometers in length unless it penetrated Turkish lines.
 An attache of the American embas- sy in Constantinople had been so inn pressed with these reports of the railroad building, in fact, that even he besieged the Associated Press cor respondent for the truth.
 False Reports Crime.
 The activity of persons who circu- late such rumors as are calculated to falsely impress the populace with the success of the Allies gives the mili- tary authorities considerable trouble The penalty for such an offence may be as much as six years 1mprison- ment and 8 fine that may mean the confiscation of all the property the offender has. But even this drastic

MEET GAS ATTACKS
 WITH FIRE BOMBS
Sir Hiram Maxim Tests Plan and
 Finds it Practical
Correspondence of the Associated PressD

Correspondence of the Associated Press) London, Aug. 31.-The British l army plans to fight the German gas attacks with fire. This is the scheme recommended by a committee of in- ventors headed by Sir Hiram Maxim, who has designed a simple apparatus with the government is now testing. The object of the apparatus is to cause large and rapidly preading fires by means of specially designed incendiary bombs thrown in the path Of the advancing gas at a distance of several hundred yards. By this means since the heating of the air must cause an upward current, it is ex- pected to drive the gas out of harms way.
 Maxim's Scheme.
 Sir Hiram's explanation of the scheme is as follows:
 "The German gas at one atmos- here of pressure is two and half times as heavy as air. In escaping into the air it very quickly becomes mixed with a large quantity of air. sc that by the time it reaches our trenches it is, as a rule, less than i
 
 ing air; that is, it is extremely light as compared with the air, but it is quite strong enough to prove fatal. In most cases we find the air that has only one -thousandth part of chlorine is the one that has done the most harm.
 Drive Gas Upward
 "It occurred to me some months ago that, if a fire could be produced between the gas and our trenches. the rapid uWard movement of the air would take the chlorine along with it, and this is quite true. The bombs that l made were to be thrown by l hand, but it was found that in order l to be thrown any distance, they had to be made quite small, and | m OreOver, they could not be thrown | them. l delivered 100 to the govern | mont for experimental purposes. | few of these have been tested, and it | was found that the fire should be greater and farther away, so have | designed a very much simpler and | larger form. The firm in London who purposes to make them have de- signed a machine for throwing them with great accuracy a distance of 300 yards, which will be quite enough. By this means fire of any size may | be produced and if the fire is large | enough the gases must be dissipated; i+ cannot be otherwise.
 "The first bombs I designed in- |

MR.. GOLDMAN MOVES SOME

Nj. B. Goldman has bought another
stock of goods which will invoice
about $1,000. The new store is in
Brooksville and the transaction was
a record breaker. Mr.. Goldman with
Mr.. Gene Dobbs as chauffeur, left
Ocala yesterday afternoon at two
o'clock, drove to Brooksville, paid for
the stock, put the keys of the store
in his pocket and came home, arriv-
ing here at midnight last night.
He considers that he has made a
fine bargain in purchasing the stock,
and will dispose of most of it there in
a great sale. Mr. Goldman is a shrewd
but honest trader and can look thru
stock of merchandise and make an
intelligent lump sum price on it.
When he buys he makes money. The
new store at Starke is doing well and
his son Jake, who is on that job, is
much pleased with the outlook there.

Petrograd, April 9.-The gigantic
conflict between Russians and Austro-
Germans in the Carpathians, engag-
ing over million men and 5000 guns,
is drawing to a decisive stage. The
Russians are advancing over a fifty
mile front, from the Topla river to
the Uszok pass, but fighting is pro-
crossing on battle line over a hun
dred miles long.
Both sides have withdrawn all
available forces from Poland to
strengthen their armies in the Carpa
-thians. Having taken Smolnik, the
Russians are now in position to
launch drive against the rear of the
Austians, who are fighting desper-
ately. to stem the Russian advance on
Uszok pass.
Snow and cold fogs make operations
extremely difficult. On the border Of
Bessarabia and Bukowina, the Aus
trians are fighting desperately, hop
ing to compel the Russians to weaken
their Carpath;an forces by sending re-
inforceemnts, but the Russians are
holding their owr. The Russians are
pouring through the Dukla, Lupkow
and Rostok passes and threaten to cut
off the eastern wing of the Austrian
army, under General Boerovitch.
