OUR PLACE IN THE WAR.
CambOn Sees Much in United States
EfOrts-Russia Not Hopeless.

Paris, Oct. 25--"Make 1t very clear
to the American public" said Jules
Cambon. general secretary to the min
istry Of foreign affairs, to-day to the
Associated Press, referring to the
recognition given by David Lloyd
George, the British premier, to the
economic, military and naval effort of
the United States in the war, chow
highly public opinion in France an
preciates all that the United States
has accomplished and how grateful
>it is for it,"
1T is the general conviction that it
is the United States which will have
the honor to finish the war and place
its foot on the monsters head" NJ.
Cambon continued. "The energy of
the American policy, as evidenced by
the embargo measures, meet with the
entire approval Of the French govern
ment. Everybody realizes that it is
an effective and complete blockade;
that is the sole means to prevent a
continuation OF the provisioning of
Germany, while at the same time it
strikes at the morale Of the country,
which daily becomes more depressed
Proofs Of depression are visible in
demands for changes in the govern
ment personnel and in rumors OF a
ministerial crisis
NJ. Cambon confirmed anew his con-
fidence In the Russian people.
Although American cooperation
in the war allows lis to accept with
out fear the possibility of Russian
collapse NJ. Cambon concluded, "I
think that despite all this Russian
people will recover themselves and
still give us happy SURPRISE

JURY SAYS MURDERED BROTHER
Parts of Dead Mans Body Found
Buried Oh Premises.

Richmond, Va, Oct. 29.-Dr. A.W.
Chamberlain Is in Jail here charged
with the murder Of his brother, A. p.
Chamberlain, an eX-judge Of the
Iowa bench, whose body, dismember-
ed and horribly mutilated, was found
late Sunday afternoon deeply buried
in the yard Of DR.. Chamberlain s
home ten miles west Of Goochland
Court House, Va. Dr.. Chamberlain
was arrested Thursday after the dis
appearance OF his brother earlier in
the week had aroused suspicious Of
his neighbors. A search was insti-
gated Immediately. Sunday the ma
ked torso was found at the bottom Of
a fence poSthOle. The stomach is
missing and the heart and lungs are
chopped to'pieces, leading to the be-
lief that the man was first poisoned
and then butchered
Until the finding Of the body DR..
Chamberlain was kept in the insecure
Jail OF Goochland county. Feeling
against him became SO intense Sun
day, however. that he was moved
here to avert lynching. The coro-
ner's jury verdict is that Judge
Chamberlain came to his death at
the hands of Dr.. a. w. Chamberlain,
In manner not determined.
Governor Stuart will tomorrow be
asked to call special term OF court
to try the accused man.
Suspicion points to Dr.. Chamber
lain because, it Is alleged, he and his
Lrother had quarrels over an account
due the brother. Dr.. Chamberlain
says that he paid this account Mon
day night before Judge Chamber
lain's disappearance. He holds re-
ceipt for the sum dated that night.
Upon collecting the account Judge
Chamberlain announced his intention
to depart Immediately for Cheyenne,
Wyo., according to the doctor, who
says he thinks his brother was way
laid by robbers after he left him.
Judge Chamberlain was GO years
old. He and his brother came to
Virginia from Iowa about three years
ago. Dr.. Chamberlain is near his
brothers age and Is married. His
wife LEFT for the West Monday, jus.
before the tragedy, it Is said.

"Baltimore's Best

fened upon us years
ago by the shopping

q From the beginning
of this store, nearly
twenty years ago, we
have Striven to do
these things:
TO serve as well as
to sell;
To give the store a
homelike and h0spi-
table atmosphere;
To m axe courtesy,
liberality and friend
illness everyday vir-
tues among our peo-
pie;
To sell dependable
merchandise at fair
prices, permitting no
misrepresentation of
quality orvalue, either
in the public prints
or behind our count
ers;
Tomake good, cheer
fully and willingly,
any shortcomings in
any article we sell.
q 1t is these principles
that have been woven
into the success of
Baltimore's Best

not even content with

are ever trying to
make it still better.
