To MAKE EUROPE TREMBLE

In a dispatch dated July 18th, the
Kaiser is reported to have declared the
war would end in October Also, in a
Petrograd report, via London, dated
July goth, it is said telegram sent by
him to his sister, the Queen Of Greece
reads as follows:
''I have paralyzed the Russians for at
least six months and am on the eve of
delivering coup on the western front
that will make all Europe tremble"
Just what degree of truth there is in
these reports, is not known, but indica-
tions point to fighting, during the next
few months, on a scale which the world
has never before witnessed.
Does Kaiser Wilhelm expect to crush
Russia, and then in turn the armies of
the west all in few months time?
