WILSON LAYS ANSWER
 BEFORE THE CABINET
GERMANS PLAN AMAZING COUP

LONDON, July 21-The British government and people now fully realize that Germany is planning the greatest coup in all history and that her campaign in Gaca and away the north the shores of the Baltic sea is all part of one vast scheme which has for its pur pose the encirclng of the whole Russian army in Poland.
 1t is ceary the intention of the TetonS to capture Riga and to advance in the south and in easery direction closing in from both Hanks in the of the Russians to
 the east of the Polish capital and endeavOng to compel the Russians to Surenwer en maSSe While the mmenslty of the plans compel respect military people believe that scheme of such gigantic proportions can hardly be expect ed to succeed The that the Russians have received orders to gradually evacuate Warsaw indicates accord
 ing to some of the London newspapers that the grand duke is alive to the danger threatening The idea o millions of men being cut off from supplies and compelled to lay down their arms strikes some military observers as something too supendous for realization but that such is the German plan is indicated clearly by all the Ieutomc recent moves Asquith asked parliament last night to vote the government an additional credit Of seven hun
 red and fifty millions The frequency of these requests keeps the minds of the people constantly onthe tremend ous cost of the war but it is understood that on British wealth must the allies depend in large measure for sue cess The money will be granted although some labor members are expected to m~ke speeches ot radical nature during the debate or he matter

 SERIOUSLY.

DURHAM, South Africa, July 21.- The liner Benalla, bound for Aus tralia, is afre in mid ocean a thou sand miles from here and the eight hundred passengers aboard are threatened with frightful fate.

DISPUTE OVER STREET
 WORK IS ALL SETTLED

A dispute took place today over the material that was being used for fill in the street work and Contractor J. p. Mantell laid off all his men pending an investigation to show who was right. The street committee of the city council and the mayor held an informal meeting with the result that Mir. Mantelps contention with respect to the particular piece of filling under discussion was borne out City Engineer Whitfield objected to the presence of little bad dirt that cot into the filling accidentally. The men loading the wagons had instruc- lions to be careful of the dirt placed in the fills and Mir. Mantell was more than willing to remove all dirt object ed to but the city engineer demanded that the whole load be thrown in the dump. Mir. Mantell then called off work and requested the city engineer to get the opinion of any independent engineer in the railroad service. The street committee after looking into matters decided that the dirt placed in the fill should remain and Tom McCOnaty was appointed inspector to decide such matters in future.

1O,OAC'OO
The excess of the mounts granted for
maintenance are due partly to the extra
ordinary high prices, partly to a higher
number of sick-days than estimated
The amount granted for hire OF servants
at Peters Farm Hospital has proved in
sufficient, as the number of able inmates,
willing to work has been insufficient for
the work to be done.
The head-nurse at the leper asylum
having been the object of a british attack
in the vicinity of the asylum, it was con
sidered right to grant her a public tele
phone to make it possible for her at any
time to communicate with the surround
ings.
The oor-Commission in Christiansted
has reported, that an extra grant of Frcs.
5 0 of the amount granted must be asked
for as so many applications of such an
urgent nature, that it has been impossible
to refuse them have been made this year.
