Today saw the German embassy de-
serted by the greater part OF the large
stan that ordinarily keeps 1t busy as a
hive. Most of the attaches and clerks
nave been sent to Cedarhurst, Long
Island, for the summer. Prince Won
HATFIELD and Haniel Won Haimhausen,
counselors, being among the number.
But Ambassador Bernstorff is on the
Job. He Is likely to be on the job for
some time to come. for the count, II
appears, has suddenly become an i'm
portant factor In international AFFAIRS.
In diplomatic circles 1t Is said Count
Won Bernstorfr has entered upon. an
ambitious program. that Of assuring per-
manent peace between the United
States and Germany and OF preventing
recurrence Of the present difficult
situation. This. Of course, implies his
expectation Of bringing about an ami
cable settlement, Of the trouble result
ing from the torpedoing of the LUST
tania. Undoubtedly, the ambassador
does entertain such q hope.
Believes Limit Is Reached.
As his friends tell 1t. the German am
bassador 10 an experienced diplomat. a
student OF wars and the things that
bring or prevent wars. He has watched
the course Of events in Europe and has
seen failure after failure follow efforts
Of diplomats to stem tho mad tide. Ono
nation after another has been drawn
into the contest.
1t is Count Won Bernstorfrs belief
that this trend OF affairs has rea ched it's
limit that the time when diplomacy
has always been SO in the past, he is
said to reason, and should be 40 in the
present conflict. And when once the
entering wedge Of diplomacy has been
driven SrH,. IN. from that time will date the

has been no more successful in it's
diplomatic efforts than have European
countries. and the failure to abrogate
the British order in council Is cited as
evidence.
What Germany Wants.
Germany wants the war to end with
two results. She wants the menace of
Russia on the east removed. To this
end she hopes to drive back the Rus
sian line beyond Warsaw and to pro-
claim Poland an independent kingdom.
Poland then would stand between Ger
many and Russia. Germanys other
desire Is said to be freedom to extend
her commerce on the ocean. There Is
where the United States comes in, and
there is where the assurance seems to
arise that Germany has no wish to
break with this country.
The German contention in this re-
spect Is said to be the American con-
tention. The United States has sought
ltb put a stop to Englands violation of
the rights Of neutrals by a diplomatic
correspondence. Germany has sought
to do the same thing by submarine
warfare. Neither has succeeded CON-
pletely, and each probably thinks its
method the better. But both. accord

Plan at Store Tomorrow.

Marked zeal Is being shown by en-
ployes of the Paiais Royal in "proft-
sharing day" to- be held tomorrow.
Both employees and patrons Of the
store are to be benefciaries Of the
novel plan.
In appreciation Of the services of
employees, as well as OF the generous
patronage Of it's large regular ellen
tele. the management hit upon this
idea Of setting aside q day solely for
the benefit Of employees and patrons.
Letters by the thousand were sent by
friends. announcing the plan. These
letters read:

sharing day at the Greater Palaiu
Royai--the one day in the year set
This sale means for you prices much
less than on any other day OF the
year, and to me It means share OF

and that shall have the pleasure Of
waiting on you. I am. -
No less interest 10 being shown by
customers in this plan than by the
employees. Advertismenst stating the
bargains to be had appear on other
pages of The Times. and 1t is expected
that tomorrow the Palais Royal Will
break all sale records.
Customers have been asked by the
management to deal with the clerks
who have served them so faithfully
throughout the year. The advertise
ments indicated plainly that custom
ers, as well as the clerks, are to have
q legitimate and genuine share in the
profits on account OF the low range
Of prices charged.

service of the Turkish government.
An interesting career was that OF
Buchanan Pasha, an American citizen
and formerly resident Of Seattle.

known in this country, was formerly a
rear admiral in the Turkish navy. His
death occurred on May q after sew

was asked by Abdul Hamid, the prede.

to enter the Ottoman naval service.
He became naval adviser to the former
sultan and in that capacity was charg-

Picturesque Career. ... ..
Bucknam Pasha'S career was pecuI
fairly picturesque. He was born in
Nova Scotia As years ago, was taken
to Maine when an infant and went to
sea as cabin boy on a merchant sail
ing ship when but a. He remained -,
sea until he had become commander of
many ocean craft, both sailing vessels
and steamships, on both the Atlantic
and Pacific. He was for some time
chief officer of the City of Picking,
of the Pacific Mail Steamship line, and
later was manager of that company at
Panama. At this time he was best
known in Honolulu. He had the posi-
ton of superintendent at Cramps ship
yards, Philadelphia, at the time the
Mediidia was building there, and was
commissioned by the Cramps to take
the vessel from Philadelphia to Con-
stantinople. Arriving in Turkey Mr..
Bucknam met the sultan, who was so
impressed by his breadth of knowledge
and experience IN naval affairs that he
appointed him. naval adviser to the
throne. Buchanan Pasha's task was to
build up navy for the sultan, who
had devoted his attention almost ex-
clusively to the army. His naval pro-

Buchanan Pashas immediate supervi-
