Pay' With Canadian Govern-! ment--DPrisoners-of-War Are Also! Accumulating a Government Cred ht, Ottawa, Aug. 27.~--Canadian sol- diers at the front, ypcluding those who are now prisoners of war in Germany, are piling up quite a tidy little savings accoumt with the Can- adian Government, .The pay allow- ance to the Canadiaps is in mogt cases being held to their credit at the London Paymaster's office, as the men at the front have little ap- portunity to spend money while in the war zone, and prefer to leave all but a small portion of it tc their credit in London. According to ad- vices received at the Militia Depart- mfent from London; a considerable; portion of this accumulated pay was recently invested, on the request of | the soldiers, in bopds sold by the British Governmemt™ in eonnection with the recent war loan. : The Canadian prisoners of war in Germany are alsé. accumulating a Government Credit at the rate "of about 75 cents per day. The pay al- lowance of those men from the Gov- ernmelit. is being continued . while they are prisoners, but it is imprac- Yicable to forward it to them in Ger- niany, and the monthly amount due thein is being regularly placed to their eredit, less the shilling per day or $1.75. per week, which is being forwarded through the British War Office through arrangement with the United States Consul-General at Ber- lin. The War Office is forwarding a shilling per day to British soldiers who are prisoners in Germany, and it was not thought wise to allow a larger sum to the Canadian fellow- prisoners for spending money.

Shirk, a Brooklyn lawyer, confirms fa report that he is getting ready to apply for an indictment, perhaps in New York county, against a ring of blackimailers who have been getting thousands of dollars from millidn- aires. A wealthy Pittsburgh regident, who was entrapped. into a $250,000 demand, is Mr. Shirk's client, and the leaders of the blackmailers is said to to be an Englishman gnd a woman of French and Spanish extractionand of great beauty According to Mr. Shirk, the wo- man moves in Newport society under an assumed name; she has a record in London and Paris. The English- man wears a monocle, and the other members of the group are two men and twa women. The woman is the last word. in "beautiful adventuressess," accords ing to Mr. Shirk after his return from Atlantic City, where he and Harry V. Doughterty, heed of Dou- ghterty's detective agency, were bath- ing near her. The story had it that the Pitts- burgh man met the adventuress ata hotel in Lakewood, N.J., in Febru- ary, 1914; that she had eyes as big as cherries and was all curves and that in April at Atlantic City she threatened to sue for breach of pro- mise unless she got $250,000, FROM BERLIN TO WARSAW.

Plattsburgh, N.Y., Aug. 26.-- Theodore Roosevelt in an addfess at the military instruction camp here, declared that for thirteen months the United States had "played an ignoble part among the nations," in that it had "tamely submitted to seeing the weak, whom we had covenanted to protect, wronged," and "had seen our own men, women and children mur- dered on the high seas without action on our part." The former president condemned the Government for having "not ta- ken the smallest step in the way of preparedness to defend our own Tights" Germa as '"'utterly brutal and ruthless in its Sisiagard of international morality," and declared that it "would be a base of abandonment of maqrality' for American manufacturers of mu- nitions of war to refuse to make shipméifits 'for thie use of the armies that are striving to restore Belgium to its own people." Munition makers who refused to make such shipments should be put, he said, on a "roll of dishonor". He added that we may be able to hold our own when the hour of peril comes to us in our turn." He renounced the peace at any price. advocation in Germany's cam- paign. He described Germany as "the most powerful of modern military nations, utterly brutal and ruthless in its (disregard of international mor- ality." "There exists no finer body of Am- erican eitizens in thls country than those citizens of German birth or -des- cent, who are in good faith Ameri- cans and nothing else. : . The professional German-American has shown himself, within the last twelve months, to be an enemy to this coun- try as well as to humanity. The re- cent exposures of the way in which these German-Americans have work- ed together with the emissaries of the German Government---by direct connection---against the integrity of American institutions and against America doing its international duty, should arouse scornful indignation in every American worth calling such, The leaders among the pro- fessional German-Americans have preached, and practiced what comes perilously near to treason against the United States. "Under The Hague convention it was our bounden duty to take what- ever action was necessary to prevent and, if not to prevent, then to undo, the hideous wrong that was done to Belgium. We have shirked this duty. We have shown a spirit too abject, that Germany has deemed jit safe to kill our women and children on the high seas." ~ Cotton As Contraband. New York Her What will Th 'the effect of Great Britain's declaration that cotton is contraband of war? - How will it affect our exports of the great South- ern staple? The answer given yesterday by the cotton markets--which presumably reflect the consensus of experts--is that the 'effect will be negligible. Contracts for future deliveries of the fibre closed slightly higher than on Saturday, before the royal proclama- tion 'was known. Possibly some sustaining influence was exerted by the accompanying an- nouncement that the British Govern- ment "contemplate the initiation of measures to relieve as far as possible any abnormal depression which might temporarily disturb market conditions." This suggests possi- ble purchases for government ac- count or treasury assistance to Brit- ish spinners desirous of accumulat- ing a reserve of the staple. ; So far as actual a from this country are concerned the proclamx tion will probably cause yery little! change.
