is NOW ENDURANCE WAR
Premier Asqulth Tells Parliament the
Struggle viii Last Long Time.
Gives Russia High Praise.

London.-The war has become and
Is likely to continue for some time a
contest Of endurance, Premier AS
quith told the House Of Commons
while making a general review in NOV
ing the adjournment Of Parliament
from July 20 until September IA.
The premier remarked:
1--WE should be ungrateful and in
sensible indeed if we did not recog-
nize at this moment the indescribably
gallant efforts being made by our Rus
sian allies to stem the tide Of inva-
sion and to retain inviolate the intes-
rity Of their possessions.
81 don't think in the whole Of mill
tary history there has been a more
magnificent example Of discipline and
endurance and Of both individual and
collective initiative than has been
shown by the Russian army in the last
seven weeks.
"Our new allies-Italy-are, with
carefully prepared movements, stead
lily gaining ground, making their way
towards the objective which we be-
ueve in a very short time will be with
in their reach"
The British feet was today far
stronger, the premier continued, than
at the beginning of the war
after all" said the premier, "this
submarine menace, serious as it has
appeared to be, is not going to infici
fatal OF substantial injury on British
trade. The seas are clear. We have
our supplies Of food and raw materi
ais, upon which we and the rest Of the
country depend, flowing upon us II
the same abundance and with th'
same freedom; and / may say without
much exaggeration, judging from the
insurance rates and other matters
with the same immunity from serioui
hazards and risks as In times o
peace"

Americans among the crew, Of whom
there were 20. Statements by the men

guns only after the liners skipper had
ordered full speed ahead, and had be
gun to trace a zig-zag course in an
effort to make his shop loose from the

The French minister at Port-au-
Prince expressed an urgent desire that
his legation be guarded by French
sailors inasmuch as the Descartes had
arrived. He thought also a French
guard would tighten the burden on Ad-
miral Caperton's 400 men.
The American expeditionary force is
expected to remain in Haiti unutil last
ing peace is restored.
It was that the danger in the city
Is regarded as increasing. It is expect
