was charged with conspiracy to
commit murder, assault and bat
terry with intent to kill. No
conspiracy charges were made
against Brown.
1t was indicated that Mayor
John z. Grace would contest the
decision of the executive COM
mittee which declared Tristram
L. Hyde, the Democratic nom1-
nee for mayor.
Examination by the coroner of
/ eight witnesses cleared up but
slightly the question in what
manner Sydney j. Cohen re-
ceived his mortal wound.
About all that was accom-
pllshed was to set up the likeli-
hood that the young newspaper
man was laid low by bullet
proceeding from one of three
distinct eruptions of gunfire.
The consensus of the testimony
so far adduced seems to be that
In the center of the room was a
man some witnesses identify as
Henry j. Brown, shooting sever
al times, more or less promis-
cously while struggles for pos
session of revolvers held by Com
mitteeman Mcdonald and by
Chief Cantwell resulted in the
discharge of those weapons. Ev-
ldence up to Eow leaves the DOS
slbility open that Mr.. Cohen NAV
have met his death by a bullet
from any one of three sources.
To-day will probably see the
close of the inquest into the death
OF Mr.. Cohen. Little headway
has been made, according to the
latest advices, into establishing
the identity of Mr.. Cohen's slay-
er. The most direct testimony
adduced was that of Jerry w.
Dunn, who said he saw Edward
Il. Mcdonald shoot Mr.. Cohen.
A local interest is added to
this tragedy by the fact that
Mr.. Cohen was a classmate of
Mr.. Il. f. Hanna at Charleston
College. Mr.. Hanna says that
Cohen was a man of exception
ally fine character.

Principal Scene of Action
In Great War Now inSerbia

But here che was check mated
by the agreement of Russia and
Great Britain to divide Persia
between them. Only a strip
thirty miles through along the
Danube divides the Teutonic
Powers from friendly Bulgaria
and allied Turkey. Against this,
the sole barrier between them
and ConstanIinople, they have
now struck.
And into this strip of territory
the French and English are
pouring their troops to aid their
ally, Serbia.
Already many thousands of
British and French troops who
were landed at Saloniki are on
their way to form a junction
with the Serbs or to take up
strategic positions against the
Bulgarian advance.
The advIces from Athens de-
clare that 1.-THE fall of Strumnit-
"a is imminent" The dispatch
continues: THE Serbs, aided by
the allies. repulsed the Bulga-
rians, who retreated on Strum-
nitZa.
1T is learned from diplomatic
sources that Field Mashal Won
Mackenson, the German COM
mander, has demanded REIN
force
Fighting on Big Fronts
There has been plenty of heavy
fighting on both the Eastern and
Western fronts, but nowhere
has either side attempted gem
eral offensive. The Germans
still are making a great effort
between Riga and Dvinsk and
have met with some minor sue
cesses, but thence to the Rou-
manian border, wherever there
has been any fighting it is the
Russians who are attacking, and
they, too, claim some gains.
Much the same conditions pre-
vail on the Western front. The
British have been attacking ca st
of Vermelles, according tc the
Berlin report, while the Ger
mans attacked the French near
Souchez and French took the Of
fensive in Champagne, Lorraine
and the Vosges. None of these
attempts is making any marked
alterations in the positions of the
armies.
According to latest advice S
Italy has declared war on Bull
garia and has dispatched a
squadron under sealed orders,
presumably to join her allies in
blockading the Bulgarian coast.

Uegun. FOR Cne Gnlru time IN
this war the Austrian armies are
crossing the three moat rivers
that protect the northern bor-
der of the peasant kingdom, the
Danube, the Save and the
>Drina.
But this new campaign diff els
from the former attempts at con-
quest in that it has German co.
operation and control. This not
only increases it effectiveness,
but gives it another aspect. For
Germans and Austrians, for all
their alliance, look at the world
through different eyes. The
Austrians called their invasion
of 1914, Stratexpedition, a mere
punitive campaign to avenge
the murder of their Archduke.
But the cold commercial eyes of
the Germans see in the present
movement the completion of one
of their fondest dreams of rail-
road extension. The conquest
of Serbia means to them the fill
ing in of q missing link in the
system Of German railroads
which shall eventually connect
the North Sea with the Persian
Gulf, Ham burg with Bagdad.
When the Germans captured
the capital of Poland they pro.
claimed their achievement by
pnt.iag up on the station bulle-
tin boz krd in far-away France a
notice ! that "Begiunlng today
express trains on the German
state railroads will be through
from Lille to Warsaw"
So now the German papers are
not talking about the prospec
tive punishment of naughty lit
tie Serbia, but are congratulate
ing them selves on the proba BILE
completion of the Hamburg. Bag
dad Railroad.
A German paper says: when
the road to Constantincpie has
been won, connection will have
been tablished between US and
our allies on the Bosphorus. A
single line of rails will stretch
from Ham burg to Ragdad, and
the road will be free for the pas
sage of German products to Tur-
key and of Turkish products to
Germany. Then an united COM
merclal sphere will stretch from
the North Sea to the Persian
Gulf, and as far as the frontiers
of India, and the rich products
of the soil of Asia Mlnor-espec-
tally corn and cotton-can find

everlastingly at it great progress

DEARTH OF PRIESTS IN
MANCHURIA.

Only fifteen missionaries are left
to administer the Faith in South
Manchuria, China. Bishop Coulet, P.
F. M, states that not only the war
but illness has reduced his priests to
this small number. The Vicariate is a
vast one, and the Christians scat,
tered in every part. The means OF
communication are very poor, SO that
the task before the present handful OF
apostles may be better imagined than
described. Some centers can be visited
only twice year, others only once
under favorable conditions. Now it
will be almost impossible to keep in
touch with the little flock of converts
made at the cost of so much labor.
The Bishop would like the help of a
few more religious communities, but
this is hardly the time to secure them
All plans of expansion must be laid
aside. Previous to the war there was
no cause for complaint regarding re.
suits obtained; during 1914, 1923
adults and 1854 infants received the
sacrament of baptism.

But medieval towns, especially in
Italy, even when fifty miles asunder,

credit to the Church, whose spirit was
responsible for the cultural instinct of
the medieval peoples. This is what
the Roman Church does for religion"
he tells us, feeding the soul not with
with a drop or two of the tincture of
worship, but making us feel one by
one all those original elements of
which worship is composed; not bring
ing the end to us but making us pass
over and feel beneath our feet all the
golden rounds of the ladder by which
the climbing generations have reach
ed that end; not handing us drily a

letting it declare itself by the glory
with which it interfuses the incense
clouds of wonder and aspiration and
beauty in which it is yelled. The
secret of her power is typified in the
mystery of the Real Presence
(p. 290) He also calls Her the "only
poet among the churches, 'the only
church that has been loyal to the
heart and soul of man." and shows at
length the insuficiency of Protestant
ism in this matter.
