thing now occupied by German armies.
The cardinal point in the desire OF
official Germany, if the assumptions
are correct, is large indemnity. This
is demanded not only to compensate
Germany for the steadily growing war
costs, but to provide guarantee"
against future attacks. The usual re-
ply to arguments that exhausted na-
tions probably would be unable to raise
the hus sums in question is that they
need only cease paying out the billions
spent annually on armaments or re-
duce such payment to finance the re-
quired indemnity.
The second cardinal points is the
restoration Of Germany's colonial en-
pire in undiminished form, with GER
tain additions, presumably at the ex-
pense of Belgium. That nation would
be permitted to retain it's independence
and territories, with the exception OF
the Meuse line Of fortresses. The de-
mand for annexation of a strip of ter
ritory down to the coast line has been
dropped; if, indeed, it ever was part
of the governments program. Even
naval experts are no longer agreed on
the necessity or advisabflity of obtain
ing the much discussed naval base on
the English channel.
France is looked to to provide
large part of the expected indemnity.
Territorial demands against France
apparently are confined to rectihca-
tions of the frontier for strategic rea-
sons.
In the East the situation is less
clear. Earlier in the war the gov
ernment apparently did not contem-
plate or even desire accessions OF
territory at Russia's expense, beyond
possible change of the frontier for
strategic reasons. 1t was felt that re-
tention of Russian Poland by Russia
would present certain advantages from
the viewpoint of German internal poll
cies. The steady cnain of victories
and the insistence of Austria produced
change, however. Chancellor Won
Bethmann Hollweg in his August
speech indicated clearly the determin-
alton to deprive Russia of a portion of
her territory, to be administered joint
" by Germany and Austria-Hungary.

Charleston, Oct. 19.-After an exam
ination today and tonight of twenty
four witnesses, the coroner's inquest
into the shooting here last Friday OF
Sidney ]. Cohen, newspaper reporter,
in the rooms of the city Democratic
executive COMMITTEE, was adjourned
until tomorrow. Testimony tonight
tended to place the blame for Cohen's
death upon Edward B. Mcdonald, for
mer policeman, now held on charges
of conspiracy to commit murder, as
sault and battery with intent to kill"
Only one witness placed the blame for
the shooting of Cohen upon Mcdonald.
Henry ]. Brown, another former po-
liceman, held on charges Of murder
in connection with the shooting, fired
the shot that wounded William E. Win
gate, according to Dunn. Wingate was
one of four men wounded at the time
Cohen was killed.
"The shot that killed Cohen was
fred at ]. A. Black" testified Magis-
trate George Lunz. Lunz, however,
said he was unable to identify the man
who fired this shot. Black is chairman
of the executive committee, which had
met to decide the result of the pri-
mary election in which John P. Grace
and Tristriam T. Hyde were seeking
the Democratic nomination for mayor.
The meeting was broken up by the
shooting, but later the committee mel
under military guard and declared
Hyde the nominee.
Lunz said that apparently every po-
liceman in the room had his pistol
drawn.
Conflicting evidence regarding the
first shot occurred again. Many wit
nesses claimed that the first shot came
from the anteroom, while others in
sisted that it occurred in the commit
tee room.
Policeman HOgan's Language.
T. Allen Legare, among the last wit
nesses tonight, said tnat he was in the
anteroom when Chief Cantwell called
out something he did not understand
and that in a few minutes seven Or
eight men came into the anteroom to-
gether. He quoted Policeman Hogan
as telling Chief Cantwell: Call right,
chief; there will be hell when I get
in there"
E. A. Cobia, who was in the ante
room, said that Policeman Hogan said:
<'I am going to get what I came for or
they will have to carry me in a wag-
on" Chief of Police Cantwell and Po-
liceman Hogan started into the room
and two shots were fired close to-
gether, ne said.
w. D. Heron said that Policeman
Hogan entered the room and that fire
flashed from his pistol. He said Win
gate stepped into the room and fired
toward the telephone where City Chair
man Black was standing.
Witnesses were pretty we'll agreed
that policemen were in the room with
their pistols drawn.
Er;5oooo That CaDfwe1 Shot
Further evidence that Chief of Police
James R. Cantwell fired pistol in the
room was introduced Witnesses as
serted that the policeman's arm was
knocked up as the weapon went off.
Several witnesses said that every po-
liceman in the room appeared to have

departed Tuesday for Milwaukee which
is to be their future home. The bride
has large acquaintance in Edgerton
and vicinity who contribute their best
wishes for happy married lire.
The four young men who are sing
ing their way to the Frisco fair gave
one of their programs at the Methodist
church last Thursday evening. There
was good audience present and all
attest to the excellence of the enter
tainment. The vocal and instrumental
music, as we'll as the readings, were a
trifie better than given us by travelling
troupes. May the boys have the good
fortune to sing themselves right through
the gates of Frisco's fair.
1t may be safely written that there
will be no public demonstration in the
way of 4th of July celebration in Ed
gerton for the year 1915. Not because
the patriotic spirit for the days of 1776
has fallen by the wayside, but because
all the people of Edgerton are united
in the opinion that it will be better to
celebrate where they please and in a
manner that best suits themselves.
Some will join nearby cities, some will
| 90 to the lakes and rivers, while others
will stay at home and pass the day with
| family reunion or neighborly gather
ing. It also may be safely written that
the glorious 4th will be sane one in

After the Famous Masterpiece by
 AlphOnse Daudet.

There are some things in the story that are unpleasant-but no more so than in life itself Sapho is true to Hfe-there can be little question as to that, And in her story there is both lesson and warning to every "good' wife against taking her supposedly established position too much as a matter of course. As a play it holds interest from start to finish. There is no dullness. It is food for thought along many lines-and for those that have neither read the book nor seen the dramatization, there is some thing in store.
 As a rule there is no show at the Casino Theatre on Wednesday nights, but in order to accomodate those who are unable to see it Thursday night a special performance will be given to- night. Those who saw the show last night were well pleased.
