man, at least, fought all he could to
maintain the level of lofty idealism,"
he said referring to the President.
II cannot help comparing the state
OF the world to-day with similar cond
lions after Waterloo century ago."
said Bishop Shedden, "for then Europe
saw a great peace, the Congress of
Vienna starting with the noblest ideals
and degenerating into vulgar rapacity
"Historians tell US to-day there never
was a peace settlement which carried
within itself the seed of so many future
wars as that wonderful Congress of
Vienna, which was to end war forever.
What verdict, we may ask, will the
historians of the future pass on the
peace of Versailles?
"Of one thing. however, I am certain.
May /, as an outsider, say it to you?
When the dusts of political controversy
have cleared and personal failures and
mistakes have been forgotten, no one
will be able to deny that one man at
least fought all he could to maintain
the level of lofty idealism. And for
that Christendom and the world in gen.
eral will always have TO show gratitude
and honor to America"

Merchants Indorse Plea
For Phone Rate Raise

Action by the Public Service Com
mission of the I'd District upon the
application of the New York Telephone
Company for increased rates has been
recommended by the Merchants AS
sociation of Greater New York, com
mittee of whose members has investi-
gated the company's condition.
The recommendation sets forth that
the company is unable to meet fully
the public's demand for service. 1t
says there are at present $4,000 un-
filled applications for telephones and
that a considerable time elapses be-
fore applicants can obtain new or ad-
ditional service.
These conditions" says the COM
nittee's report, 'can be remedied
and the service restored to a proper
standard only by extensive additions
to the plant, to provide which a great
sum of new capital is required. 1t
will be difficult, perhaps impossible, for
the company to obtain the needed new
capital unless the revenues are suf-
fcient to assure a fair return to in
vestors" The present revenues are
insufficient for actual operating costs,
the report says.

Amundsen Probably
Trapped for Year
In Arctic Ice Pack
Believed to Have Missed
Great Chance oCrOss Pole
by Return to Siberian
Coast With an Open Sea
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

SEATTLE. Oct. 16.-Moving west
ward in dense masses, the great Arc
tic ice pack trapped Captain Road
Amundsen's North Pole expedition at
Cape Serge, Siberia, last month, and
unless he has found some means of ex-
Treating his ship from her frozen fet-
ters he has been thrown back whole
year in his daring venture to drift
across the pole.
j., by returning to the Siberian shore in
the Arctic, instead of sailing eastward
Amundsen missed the chance of life
time to add great page to Arctic an
nals: In the eastward section the Arc
tic Ocean was clear Of ice.
News of Amundsen's plight was
brought to Seattle by Olaf Swenson
Of the Hibbard Swenson Company, of
Seattle, who arrived home on the fur
corporations power schooner Kam-
chatka. He headed the company's an.
nual expedition to Kamchatka and the
Siberian Arctic on the schooner.
Three Men and Woman Aboard
Amundsen has only three men and
one woman aboard with him on his
ship, the Maude. The woman Is an ell
derly native he took aboard at Nome
as seamstress for the expedition.
"Amundsen went back to Siberia to
pick up several natives" said Mr.
swenson this morning. captain Han
son, of the Maude. retired from the
expedition at Nome. The vessels chief
engineer and sailmaker also left the
SIP there and it was necessary for
Amundsen to strengthen his crew. So
when he left Nome later in the summer
he sailed back to Cape Seegre, Siberia,
which lies about 225 miles northwest
Of Nome. There he was caught in the
ice and unless conditions have changed
and he has succeeded in forcing his
way out, which is unlikely, he is stuck
for the winter
Handicapped by Small Crew
"If Amundsen had had full crew
when he left Nome he would have had
the chance of lifetime to add a bril-
liant page to Arctic history The ice
this year is all packed to the westward
leaving an open sea in the eastward
sections. North of Bering Strait and
Alaska our vessel, the Kamchatka, went
as far north as 70 degrees and Is min
utes this year and we could have gone
further without any difficulty. Open
water lay before US. If Amundsen
could have sailed into the eastward
stretches instead of having to head
back to the Arctic shore of Siberia he
would now be long way on his at
tempt to drift across the pole"

He was educated in the Atheneum in
BRUSSELS, in the Military School,. the
Engineering and Artillery School and
then the War College. emerging from
them an expert in military strategy
and mathematics. On being graduated
he was engaged as professor in the
War College and there devoted many

Anticipated Invasion
General Leman was said to have
been one of the few Belgians who was
not surprised by the outbreak Of the
war and the invasion of Belgian soil.
He had even predicted the scene of the
violation. for one day while riding with
his troops he pointed toward the
seclessin Forest and remarked: at is
through there they will attack u.s."
He had predicted correctly
The Germans, under Won Emmich,
attacked on August 4. The first shock,
which had been expected to wipe out
all Belgian resistance, was broken and
the enemy divisions we're thrown back.
Thcv renewed the concentration, as
saultng the forts again and again in
succeeding days, with only small
localized successes.
Twenty-Five thousand Belgians who
manned the fortress and outstanding
forts of Liege turned back the Ger
mans for thirteen days. Forty thous-
and Germans were lost in the assault.

Kaisels picked shock troops which had
expected rapid sweep through Bel
