mo PEACE N0W"-WILSoN
Victory the Way to End War, Says
Executive to Organizers of Pa
triotic Movement.

Washington, Oct 10.-"Americans
who are discussing early peace with
Germany forget that it would mean
crushing the democratic ideals for
which the United States has always
stood" declared President Wilson on
Monday to the organizers of patriotic
educational movement who called at
the White House. He said the only
way to end the war is by complete vic
tory of the nations representing those
ideals over Germany's doctrine of
force.
MANY people" said the president,
'are inclined to let their thoughts on
the causes and principles underlying
the war wander into byways, and for
get that the main reason the United
States is at war Is to defeat gov
eminent which threatens even the ex-
istence of democracy"
The president Endorsed the plan Of
the new organization. which includes
a number of religious, business. labor
and fraternal groups, for unifying the
spirit of America. Little real misur-
derstandings of the war exist in the
United States, he said, but there is
evident considerable cloudy thinking
which a patrioSc educational move
ment can set Alright.

Lifting Power Of Heat.

Weight can be raised by heat, ana
in this agent is a great source of me-
chanical power.
A pound of coal produces by its
combination with oxygen an amount of
heat which, If mechanically applied,
would suffice to raise a weight of 100
pounds to a height of 20 miles above
the earth's surface. Conversely, 100
pounds falling from a height of 20
miles and striking against the earth
would generate an amount of heat
equal to that developed by the COM
bustion Of a pound of coal.
Wherever work is done by heat, heat
disappears. A gun which fires ball
is less heated than one which fires a
blank cartridge. The quality of heat
communicated to the boiler of work
ing steam engine is greater than that
which could be obtained from the re-
condensation of the steam after it had
done its work, and the amount of work
performed is the exact equivalent OF
the amount of heat lost.

REVOLT IN GERMANY
CREWS OF FOUR WARsHIPs MU-
TINY AT WILHELMsHAvEN-
ORDERED SHOT BY KAISER.
BERLIN ADMITS OUTBREAK
Emperor HaIts Execution of Sailors,
Except Three, When Chancellor
Warns Him-SociaIists
Are Blamed.

London, Oct. IA revolutionary
outbreak on German warships at Will
helmshaven about six weeks ago is re-
ported in a Central News dispatch
from Copenhagen. This uprising is
said to have had all the elements of a
widespread and organized revolt and
TO have been suppressed only with the
greatest difficulty. Several mutinous
outbreaks also are reported to have oc-
CURED among soldiers at the front.
These were not of such grave char
acter, the dispatch says.
The sailors on four vessels mutinied
and threw the captains overheard, it is
said.
Amsterdam, Oct. 12.-In mutiny in
the German fleet at WiIhelmshaven
the crews of four battleships revolted.
One of these battleships was the West
fallen, whose captain was thrown over
board and drowned. The crews land
ed. Marines refused to fire on them,
whereupon soldiers surrounded the
sailors. who surrendered.
A mutiny is reported to have occur
red on the German warship Nurnberg,
which was at sea. The men seized the
officers and proceeded in the direction
of Norway, with the intention of being
interned. The Nurnberg was overtaken
by destrOyers and forced to surrender.
Emperor William went to Wilhelms-
haven and ordered that one out of
every seven mutineers be shot. Chan
cellor Michaelis protested with the re-
suit that only three were shot. Heavy
sentences were imposed on the others.
The chancellors objections TO the
emperOr's order that one mutineer in
every seven be shot was on the ground
that he could not assume such respOn-
sibility before the reichstag.
One of the reasons for the muting
was bad and inadequate food.
Copenhagen, Oct. 12.-Vice Admiral
Won Sapelle, German minister of ma
rine, announced in the reichstag that
plot had been discovered in the navy
to form committee of delegates on
the Russian model and to paralyze the
fleet so as to force the government to
make peace.
The guilty parties have been ar
rested and have received their just
deserts, the minister added.
Admiral Won Capelle attempted to
link the radical socialists with the plot.

The final act of the tragedy had
taken place barely fifteen hundred
fcAt above the earth; and in the en-
suing struggle with herself Patria had
neglected to tilt the plane so as 10 lift
them to higher and safer level. Now
abruptly something that sounded as
tonishingly like the voice of an angry
dog barked sharply at them from be-
low, four times in swift succession,

shrapnel sprayed out a trife TO the
right of the biplane and well above it.
An anti-aircraft gun, a two-pounder
pom-pom mounted in an armOred mo-

AS they swept back across the boun-

raging below was disclosed to them in
painful detail.
The initial reverses dealt out to the
defenders were being driven home by
the Japanese and Mexicans in the
most methodical and businesslike fash

! thrown across the border, occupying
| the first-line trenches abandoned by
Patria's order, and busily intrenching
themselves still further close in under
the mainline trenches, undismayed by
the whitening rifle and machine-gun

With a sharp pang Of fear for Dom
