JAP CRITIC TELLS OF
ALLIES COMING VICTORY

Paris, Aug. 24.--Admiral Akiyama.
who, as aide to Admiral Togo, plan
ned the battle of Tsushima, Is on the
way to New York after visiting all OF
the allies countries.
IT am thoroughly convinced that
the allies are in twofold superiority
to the Germans" said the admiral be-
fore sailing. ITO be perfectly truth
full the Germans were a nation much
stronger than we ever imagined. What
they have done in the last two years
will remain a marvellous monument in
the history OF the world.
But what has made them so strong
Is their organization and preparation
in military matters These advantages
no longer exist. The allies by practice
and experience have accomplished all
the Germans had perfected.
"All that remains to Germany to-
day Is her national unity, which Is
the fundamental element of her
strength. But / have come to won
der how long such unity can with
stand the strain OF the dangers which
threaten 1t with increasing intensity.
German unity is artificial rather than
natural. Their discipline lacks elias
ITCHY and cannot last. Any way the
development of the war is entirely
favorable to the allies

Mr.. Siemp when questioned as to;
who he thought 1t would he. replied
that letters are being exchanged now
with two or thres strong Republicans
either Of whom. may make the rare.
He declined to gi-e their names. but
