ADVISES PEACE Offer
COMPLETE RUSSIAN DEFEAT NOT
POSSIBLE. SAYS GENERAL
Won MoLTkE.

| Western Newspaper Union News Service
London, Aug. 24.-Cermany is in
dulging in the first thought of possible
defeat which she has cOuntenanced
| since the war began.
While the German fleet at Riga was
meeting with decisive defeat, Gen. Won
Moltke, former chief of staff, was tell
| ing a secret conference OF German cab
met ministers that the possibility OF
complete Russian defeat could not be
hoped for by those well informed on
the situation. At the same meeting
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg and
Karl Hefferich, secretary of the treas
ury, announced that the empires H.
nancial resources are in danger of ex-
haustion and advised the preparations
OF acceptable peace proposals. The
information about the financial situa-
tion in Germany is presented by the
Teegraf, at Amsterdam, and is as fol-
lows:
AT the secret conference Of cabinet
ministers, political leaders and influ'
entail writer's, called by the German
imperial chancellor before the reas.
sembling of the Reichstag to discuss
the political situation, the Telegraat
says Karl Helfferich, secretary of the
treasury, explained that the new Ger.
man war loan would completely ex.
haust the empires financial resources
and that the increase in excheQuer
bonds would cause bankruptcy. There
fore, DR.. HeIfferich urged. 1t was need
full to prepare for an honorable peace.
chancellor Won Bethmann-Ho Hollweg,
according to the same report, declared
that the difficulties of the empire
we're increasing and advised his hear
ers to use their influence to soften
down bellicose inclinations and expan.
sion policy in the Reichstag and the
peace proposals which would be &C.
csptable to the four members of the
entente.
"Dr. Bernhard Dernberg's report Of
the failure Of his mission in the
United States and other neutral coun-
tries. the Telegraaf says. made a
strong impression on the conference
General Won Moltke. former chief
Of the general staff, declared that he
fully agreed with the chancellor and
added that only those not fully in
formed on the situation could hope
for the possibility of complete Rus
sian defeat.
Despite these declarations, the
story concludes, the meeting refused
to adopt resolution advocating mod
Grafton in the Reichstag, whereupon
the chancellor declared that if a ma
jority in the Reichstag should show
an irreconcilably chauvinistic attitude
he would be obliged to resign, as he
could not accept responsibility for
German disaster"
Rumania is expected to enter the
war on the side of the allies, within
possibly even so short a time as a
week.
Japan has announced that greater
assistance will be given Russia by its
government in the way of war NUM-

Anyhow.

Did you ever stop to think tina,
there IL . very definite reason Why the
present war in Europe has dragged
along for . year with neither side
gaining much advantage over the
other? The reason. as I figure II out
10 aeroplanes. Orville Wright writes
in Golfers. In consequence OF the
scouting work done by the flying ma
chimes. each side knows exactly what
the opposition forces are doing.
There is little chance for one army
to take another by surprise. Napoleon
won wars by massins his troops At un-
expected places. The aeroplane has
made that impossible. II has equal
ized Information. Each side has such
complete knowledge of the others
movements that both sides are obliged
to e.swl into trenches and fight BY
means of slow, tedious routine rather
than by quick. spectacular dashes.
My impression Is that before the
present war started the army experts
expected 1t to be a matter Of few
weeks or. at most. few months. Today
It looks as II It might run into years
before one side can dictate terms.
Now. a nation that may be willing to
undertake a war lasting . few months
may well hesitate after engaging In
one that will occupy years.
The daily cost Of . great war 10 OF
course stupendous. When this cost
runs on for years the total il likely to
be so great that the side which wins
loses. War will become
prohibitively expensive. And the
scouting work in flying machines viii

seems to me. in bringing this about.

COLDS SIREN LURE FOR MEN
sands That They May Gain
Riches Quickly.

1t was in 1898 that the rush of gold
seekers to the Klondike reached its
food. The ninety Fighters probably
never will know the fame Of the forty
miners. but they have a place in the
long history Of the gold hunters. the
men Of all nations. ancient. medieval
and modern The book has q hundred
chapters telling OF failure and of death
to every one lightened with the story
Of success.
H. NJ. Cadell recently visited the
Klondike. and there made = study of
present conditions. He describes them
and adds an interesting account Of the
early day rush to the Northwest terri
tory. The Smithsonian institution has
put Mr.. Cadell's report into print. 1t
Is an interesting document. Some of
the happenings in the Klondike were
duplicates Of like happenings in Cali
fornia and Australia during the first
years Of the surface washing in those
fields. These applications show that
human nature is unchanging.
Men went to the Klondike daring
hardship and death that they might
get rich quick. Some Of the gold
seekers we're quickly successful. A
large percentage Of the successful
ones almost literally threw their mon.
ey away. Easy come. easy go. This
sort Of thing has marked gold min.
ing in all ages. The Klondike is not
what It was, but human nature stays
the same. The discovery Of gold at
