THE CAUSE OF THE EUROPEAN CRISIS ing.

The Russian calls the German a "niemetz, which means a mute person, and the German looks upon the Russian as a airty dog. The French cannot forget Sedan and the humiliation of 1870. The Germans that the average Rua-Elan knows best are the German overseers on the great Russian estates. The absentee landlord in Russia almost universally hires a German to run his vast country establishment The Germans make good business men and they can force more out of the peasantry, which means that for a hundred years and more the peasants have hated the Germans. Germany, with no colonies for an outlet, has felt the pressure from the north, for Russia is constantly pushing west as well as south, In-order to get further away from the Icy, wind-swept north.

Statesmen in Russia and in Germany and Austria have done much to foster race hatreds. The semiofficial press has fanned the flames. Thus, when the Germans of Prussia Austria felt the prasEure increasing, when they saw the Slays of the Balkans growing more powerful, when they saw the Turkish troops which they had trained whipped by French-armed Slav brothers of Russia, something had to break sooner or later. Politics, the Triple Alliance and mutual distrust did the rest. Uncle Dudley.

AN OBJECT LESSON FOR THE WEST MILD a great and rich people be left in a plight more absurd than we Americans find ourselves by the withdrawal of the merchant ships of belligerent Nations from the lanes of the North Atlantic? While making ready to export an overabundance out of a record crop we are suddenly shut in behind a Chinese wall. Our fathers sternly arraigned George III for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world. But George could not have cut it off as effectually as George William and the republic of France have done In the year 1914. For when we were only a colony we had ships of our own and could smuggle our trade through British restrictions. But now, When we are a supposedly independent Nation of 100,000,000 people, actually the greatest producing Nation on the globe, we have no ships and our harbors are sealed up in a twinkling by decree of the war lords of Europe.

The people of the West have not had so clear an occasion before of learning how dependent their prosperity Is on the ports of the seaboard and how important to them it is that we should have a merchant marine under the American flag. They have been inclined to dismiss the subject as relating merely to the selfish interest of a few seaports and to say that they did not care whether their products were shipped under our own or alien flags. May we not hope that this object lesson will prove profitable? It is well that the inland States ponder it as they look upon their rich harvest, with no means bt shipping it to foreign markets. stockholders may have some opportunity to recover their losses. Those men are doing this for the sake of New England, and not for personal interests.

They are serving without pay. Their hands should have been upheld by the Commerce Commissioners. The door of hope is left ajar by the majority declaration that, after some financial readjustments, the rates may be raised in the East on certain articles if close classification warrants It. i Hope deferred, however, is a poor basis upon which to rebuild the New England lines. OUR UNIQUE POSITION.

TT is interesting to mark how, pub- 's' lie opinion changes in some quar-, ters. A few months ago there was here and there a spirit of jingoism in this country, and our Government was being urged to make war on Mexico. Now, instead of being denounced and ridiculed for his "watchful waiting" policy, the President is commended warmly everywhere for not having embroiled the United States in a war. This revulsion of feeling is attributable directly to the war in Europe, when the United States stands forth as the one great Power in the world at peace with all Nations. Our unique position at this time meets with hearty approval all over the United States.

DITORIAL POINTS. Boston has only one Mayor, and would certainly have been deeply anxious Sunday afternoon if she had known that he, his wife and two children, and a party of friends were being tossed about in a heavy sea off Minots Light, helpless in a "one-lunged" motor boat. Boston has asked for $10,000,000 worth of the emergency currency, and perhaps before long we shall have an opportunity to see jOst what it looks like. Praying for success in war shows a conflict of ideas that it is hard for cornmon sense to understand. Altogether reasonable, on the other hand, is the call of the Pope to Catholics throughout the world to pray for peace, Why call the Kaiser the War "Kriegsherr" in German means nothing more than Commander-in-Chief, and the Kaiser got his English title, the War Lord," only through a mis-translation.

There was no intention of irony in the announcement cabled by the 15 American delegates of the Church Peace Union that they have safely arrived in Paris. The extraordinary appeal for neutrality on the part of England made by Dr Von Kuhlmann, counselor of the German Embassy at London, in which he states terms on which Germany would agree not to make warlike use of the seacoast of Belgium, taken in connection with the violation of the neutrality of Luxemburg, sufficiently shows Germany's attitude toward, neutrality to the respect of she is bound by treaty obligations. It was certainly hard lines for some of the passengers on the President Grant to have the steamship recalled to New York before they had had time to get over being seasick. We regret to say that there are people who would like to see a proclamation of moratorium, such as King George has signed, which in effect allows everyone In England to suspend the payment of debts and obligations, issued over here. As a result of her own action, Queen Mary of England is now colonel-in-chief of the 8th (Queen Mary's Own) Hussars, but she may not lead her regiment in action, for all that.

"Married Women In Industry." Editor People's ColumnI was much interested in reading "Uncle Dudley's" recent article, "Married Women in Industry." It seemed to me many years ago that something ought to be done about the condition of things, and I at one time, at a society meeting, made suggestion to others Who were interested in the subject.

But an objection- was raised by 'a man of wisdom and experience. "Why, my dear woman! The class of people you wish to reach do not read or even take the papers." (I had suggesetd that at least, might be reached by published articles upon the subject.) How, then, can they be reached? How can the cure be found for the condition of things referred to?

Beverly. The question has never been decided. There are two clauses of the Constitution under which some have thought the National Government could exercise such power: the one that gives Congress exclusive control of interstate commerce and everything pertaining to it, and the other. giving Congress authority to establish Postoilices and post roads. No person questions the right of the National Government to exercise exclusive control of the postal or mail system as a means of transmitting intelligence, and some good lawyers have thought It might, under one or both of the provisions above referred to, exercise similar control over the telegraph and telephone business, making a Government monopoly of both as it does of the postal system.

NErgr.ie CZIEtito ft, WAR DAY BY DAY Aug 4, 1864A Confederate Cavalry Column, Under Gen John McCausland, That on July 30 Had Pillaged Chambersburg, Penn, Attacked a Railroad Garrison at New Creek, Va, and Being Repulsed, Withdrew Toward Moorefield.

fr 11---s' 1r o' I I- 4 s' ST ASHURatto: 1 d. I' VA. ...,,0 ir SCENE OF McCAUSLAND'S RAID IN MARYLAND, PENNSYLVANIA AND W. VIRGINIA. (From the Official Atlas.) FIFTY YEARS ago today a Confederate cavalry column from Early's command, under Gen John McCausland, which on July 30 had pilaged and burned Chambersburg, Penn, attacked a garrison defending a bridge on the D.

O. Railroad at New Creek, NV Va, and being repulsed, withdrew toward Moorefield, where defeat and dispersal at the hands of Federal cavalry awaited it. Gen Jubal A. course in detaching this column and ordering it to destroy Chambersburg, or collect $100,000 in gold- from its citizens, had aroused the bitterest resentment in the North. The war was entering on a savage phase, of which this course of procedure was a striking example.

Gen Early justified the burning of the Northern town as an act of reprisal for burnings of private houses by Gen David Hunter in the valley of Virginia; but what was Intended for an act of military reprisal had developed into an expedition for pillage and wanton destruction of the property of unarmed people. Evidence of this Is to be found in the official report of one of the officers who commanded a brigade in Gen McCausland's column, Gen Bradley T. Johnson. The report of Gen Johnson constitutes a severe arraignment of the policy adopted by Gen Early, and casts a blemish on the record of soldiers who had shown their gallantry on many fields. "At Chambersburg, while the town was in flames," wrote Gen Johnson, "a quartermaster, aided and directed by a field officer, exacted ransom from individuals for their houses, holding the torch in terror over the house until it was paid.

The transoms varied from $750 to $150. 0.After the order was given to burn Chalinbersburg and before, drunken soldier pltraded the streets in every possible disguise and paraphernalia, pillaging and plundering."

Turned Back at Cumberland. The p6rtinacity with which Averell's column had followed the raiders apparently saved Hancock from the torch.

It also prevented the raiders from crossing the Potomac there into West Virginia, for Averell's guns covered the in wConfederates stw ar tl by the National turnpike, tghe Cumberland. This place was the headquarters of a military zone, and Gen B. F. Kelley; commanding there, had a sufficient fotce to repel the raiders, which he did In a skirmish lasting all the afternoon of Aug 1. The Confederates, in withdrawing, left 30 dead and wounded on the field.

It was now time for Gen McCausland to think of rejoining Gen Early in the Shenandoah Valley. To do this he must cross the Potomac and the Alleghanies. Marching by night through an obscure road from near Cumberland, the column headed for Oldtown, where the South Branch enters the Potomac. They found the ford guarded by a small force of Ohio recruits, or "100-day men," who, after withdrawing across the river to a blockhouse at Spring Run station, on the railroad, fought for a time, and surrendered, on the threat that if taken they would be slaughtered. Having cleared the way across the river, Gen McCausland marched into the mountains of West Virginia, proceeding to Springfield.

Beyond that town the column, on Aug 3, crossed a wire bridge over the South Branch of the Potomac and then destroyed it. The troopers next moved to Romney, from which point an expedition was sent westward to seize the railroad bridge across New Creek, near the Potomac. The bridge was protected by a blockhouse. Defense of New Creek Bridge. The Confederates appeared before the blockhouse at m.

They had marched by two routes, one 18 miles long the ether 25. and were fatigued. They found the hills near the blockhouse so steep that their artillery could not be drawn up them. The Federals were protected by a palisade and abattis around the blockhouse, and had six cannon, which they used with good effect The defenders of the bridge numbered only a few hundred men, under Col Robert Stevenson of the 154th Ohio National Guard. They fought well, and when at dark the Confederates withdrew they left 25 dead men on the hillsides.

The Federals lost seven men killed and 29 wounded. This tight was the last made by the raiders on the Potomac. They now headed for Moorefield, In the valley of the South Branch, with the Intention of grazing their horses and resting the command before moving over the mountain to the Valley of Shenandoah. As soon as the direction of their march was determined, Gen Averell, who had halted at Hancock, began to move in the direction of Moorefield, near which, on Aug 7, he struck and dispersed the raiding column.

WHITNEY. 4 WOODSTOCK, Vt, Aug 3Samuel Brenton Whitney of Boston, one of the foremost organists of the country, and widely known as a composer of sacred music, died shortly after noon today at the home of his sister, Mrs James 8. Jones of this town. Mr Whitney, who lived on lAralnut in Boston, had been in failing health for a year. Last Christmas he came to Woodstock for his annual visit and was taken worse.

It was only a week ago that actual fighting began along the Danube, and events have occurred with such rapid succession mat Austria has practically abandoned her campaign against Servia in order to face about and meet the oncoming hordes of Russia from the north. The little 1 I kingdom where the trouble started finds that the elephant's foot has been raised from its head.

What has been the cause of it all? The match that lighted the fire was the assassination of the heir to the Austrian throne and the kindling which spread the flame was interlocking international politics, while probably the real fuel for the fire are race hatred and race rivalry.

All have helped. Servia has stood in the way of Austria's march of progress southward: Every effort during the last century has been made by the dual monarchy to extend her lines to the seacoast. It therefore, a bitter pill for the House of Hapsburg when Servia emerged from the Balkan struggle stronger, bigger and more arrogant than ever. Austria knew that Servia must be crushed, and had it not been the killing of Francis Ferdinand it would have been some othet outbreak, some other excuse. This was shown by Austria's declaration of war when Servia accepted all of the exacting and humiliating demands except one.

Servia could not allow Austrian officers to enter her territory and court-martial her citizens. Then the kindling began to blaze. Diplomats have the web of International polities over the whole of Europe that no string 'could be pulled without affecting the rest of the net. Russia also is pushing southward to the Aegean. She wants Con-I stantinople so that her year-round ports in the Black Sea will be open to the commerce of the world and controlled by her own Navy.

Corn- merce cannot grow on the shores of the frozen Baltic. Russia, therefore, could not stand by and see Austria lay hands on Servia. When Russia became restive Germany rushed to the defense of her ally, Austria. When Germany dared war on Russia then France, the ally of the Czar. was drawn Into the whirlpool.

In New England, too, I have found the finest of our large citiesBoston. New York, Philadelphia and Chicago have each their respective claims, but to my mind Boston has them beaten so far that you can hardly see the dust that the others raise as they trail "down the pike" behind Boston.

I wish to qualify also regarding the Boston Globe and the "Uncle Dudley" editorials. I have never read a better, cleaner and more newsy paper than the Globe. and when it comes to your editorials, which I have read every day since being in New England, they are by far the ablest, cleanest and most instructive and entertaining of any that I have ever read. May you live long' and prosper and keep on editorials, because I expect to rez'd the Globe during the balance of my life, no matter where my vocation may "drap" me. I am somewhat of an amateur newspaperman myself, having written newspaper articles for my personal friend, Gov Judson Harmon of Ohio, during the Democratic Presidential nomination campaign, when I was attached to his headquarters for four moths.

TN asking Congress $250,000 for the relief of Americans in distress abroad, President Wilson has set in motion a practical plan at an early hour. There are probably more than 50,000 Americans in Europe today, and with financial arrangements all disrupted these travelers cannot obtain funds to meet the ordinary necessities of life.

When traveling nearly every American aims to carry as little actual cash as possible, securing I what money that is needed by frequent visits to banks and business houses where letters of credit and travelers' checks are valid. Consequently the need of cash at the present moment is most urgent. Furthermore, many of the American tourists at this season are persons of small means who are traveling for educational ptprposes as well as for enjoyment, and their funds are not so extensive that they can afford to be delayed through lack of train service for any great length of time before they fall into actual want. cash at the present moment is most urgent Furthermore, many of the mercan our Ai tists at this season are persons of small means who are traveling for educational purposes as we as for enjoyment, and their il funds are not so extensive that 'they can afford to be delayed through I for any great lack of train service a length of time before they, fall into actual want. askin A GOOD AND TIMELY MOVE.

And all this was done by a man entirely self-taught, with only the memory of what he had seen in Europe to draw upon.

He had to send abroad for books on architecture, for there was not one in this country. As for architectural and mechanical drawing Bulfinch knew little of it, and when called to Washington to finish the Capitol Building, he was filled with awe at the sight of Latrobe's work in this direction, for Latrobe had been a trained architect. Bulfinch had enjoyed 20 years of success at Boston before he went to Washington, where the family resided for 12 years. The State House was built on land adjoining Gov Hancock's garden. The corner-stone was laid by Gov Samuel Adams, assisted by Paul Revere, on July 4, 1795, and it was finished in three years.

When Buifinch was commissioned to design and build the Massachusetts General Hospital he was sent to study some of these institutions In New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, and he constructed a building that ranks among the most beautiful in the country.
