As far back as last November Govâ€" ernment experts were at work on this problem. They experimented .with various alloys of steel, trying to find one that would stand the strain of such a shell. Finally they succeeded. They produced a 17â€"inch gun that would suit this purpose. Various exâ€" periments have been made and are believed to have been entirely successâ€" ful. It is stated that the shell will be carried 25 miles and will work havoe on a scale entirely unpreceâ€" dented. NEW YORK PRESS ON THE SITUATION "It is time to have done with a naâ€" tion which has repudiated every scrap of international law. It is time to have done with a State which has adopted a policy which is alike a chalâ€" lenge to humanity and a negation of all that civilization means. If the wouldâ€"be murderer misses, if his bulâ€" let goes astray, does society less cerâ€" tainly incarcerate him? It is not the fault of the German commander that every American on the Arabic was not drowned. All that the assassin could do was done. All that the butâ€" cher could do to make the massacre complete was done. If chance spared Americans, it was chance alone. Southern district: Ideal harvest weather past week; cutting comâ€" menced and will be general by end of this week. > tion. Northern district reports good harâ€" vest weather; wheat and oats turning; barley harvest started. e Thus is answered the question why no advance was made when Warsaw was about to fall and the main bulk of the German troops were concenâ€" trated on that front. It also explains why after the great movement of Kitchener‘s army to France early in July the troops were not used. Nothâ€" ing was to be done until these guns, which the great armament factories of Britain have been working on for six months had been delivered in suffiâ€" cient quantities at the front. "Since this is the case, only one road remains open to Mr. Wilson; there is only one course that he can follow with dignity and with honor. Without delay, further protest, any diplomatic exchange whatsoever, the German Ambassador in Washington should receive his passports, the American Ambassador in _ Berlin should be recalled. "The time has come now to act. To talk further is to encourage, not avoid, murder. It is to compound with infamy and continue relations with savagery. It is to write ourâ€" selves down willing victims, as conâ€" senting to the continued slaughter of Amoricans.

TURKS LEVY WAR TAX ON ALL FOREIGNERS A despattch from Rome says: Desâ€" patches from Salonika received by the Giornale U‘Italia and the Tribuna declare that the Turkish authorities in addition to prohibiting the departure of Italians from Smyrna have levied a heavy war tax which foreigners never before have been required to pay, and which many Italians in Smyrna, beâ€" ing almost destitute, are quite unable to pay. M. Venizelos, it is declared, may consent to territorial concessions in the Balkans on the condition that Greece maintain a predominant posiâ€" tion in the peninsula, but her particiâ€" pation with the Entente allies now implies a greater demand, in the reâ€" presented view of Venizelos, since Austroâ€"German â€"successes _ augment the value of her intervention.

"Well, when I look at them I thank M. Venizelos affirms that he has no preconceived bias against the central empires. What he wishes to achieve, the advices state, is the union of all Greek territories, which, in his view, is only obtainable now by fighting Turkey. Accomplishment of Greek aspiraâ€" tions by coâ€"operation with the Entente allies would, in the view of Venizelos as outlined from Athens, have been easier before Italy entered the war, because of the occupati®n by Italy of Acgean istands claimed by Greece, and now further complicated by Greek expansion in Epirius, in Southern Alâ€" bania, thus @rousing Italian jealousy. Union of Territories Can Only Be ‘ Effected by Fighting Turkey. . A despatch from Rome says: Adâ€" vices of a confidential nature received here from Athens outline what is deâ€" clared to be the policy decided upon by former Premier Venizelos, who has been asked by King Constantine to form a Cabinet, and has announced his readiness to do so. The outline is substantially as follows: GREEK PREMIER‘S POLICY. The German System the Most Highly Organized. Since the war broke out, we have just begun to understand how imporâ€" tant and how continually busy are the secret services of the various Euroâ€" pean nations. The "spy" is employed by all the military offices of Europe, and although the German system is believed to‘be the most highly organâ€" ized and efficient of them all, there has been many a clever bit of secret work done by the agents of England, France and Russia. Sir Robert Badenâ€"Powell, the wellâ€"known founder of the Boy Scouts, has some of the most exciting exploits in question to his credit, and he describes several of them in his book, "My Adventures as a Spy." This is the stofy of his mission to get information about a new power house and a drydock in an unnamed foreign country: It was early morning, and several carts were waiting to come in. Noâ€" ticing that the policcman at the gate was talking to the driver of the first wagon, I jumped alongside the second wagon, on the side opposite the poâ€" liceman, and so passed inside the wall, and continued to walk with the vehiâ€" cle as it wound its way round the new building. I then noticed another policeman sazhead of me, and employed the same tactics to avoid him. Unâ€" fortunately, as I rounded the corner of the building, the first policeman spied me, but I walked on as unconâ€" cernedly as I could until I had put the corner of the new building beâ€" tween him and me. Then I fairly hooked it along the back of the buildâ€" ing and rounded the far corner of it. Speaking at the close of a dinner M. Millerand declares he felt highly honored by Lord Kitchener‘s visit to France, and was glad to learn from the British Field Marshal‘s own lips of the complete accord uniting the two nations. Addressing the British War Minister directly, he said: "Yours is not the only voice which praises our soldiers, for the enemy also gives them their due. After a As I did so, I noticed that the poâ€" liceman was coming fullâ€"speed, and that he had called the other policeâ€" man to his aid. I darted round the next corner, out of sight of both, and was halfway up a ladder at that side of the building when round the next corner came one of the policemen. I at once "froze," keeping absolutely A despatch from Paris says: A joint inspection of parts of the westâ€" ern battle line was made by Lord Kitchener, Great Britain‘s Secretary of War, and Alexander Millerand, the French War Minister. They were accompanied part of the time by Gen. Joffre and Sir John French, Comâ€" mandersâ€"inâ€"Chief of the French and British armies. The military leaders paid particular attention to conditions in the Champagne and the Woevre.. An official note, which gives details of the trip, says Lord Kitchener and M. Millerand were greatly impressed by the splendid appearance of the troops and their high morale. Sevâ€" eral conferences were held, but the nature of them is not disclosed.

My first act was to look for a line of escape in case of pursuit, and presently I found a short ladder leading to the stage below, alâ€" though it did not go to the ground. Then I proceeded to take notes. From my position I had an excellent view of the dockyard and the excavations for the new dock, the dimensions of which I could easily estimate. I whipped out my prismatic compass, and quickly took the bearings of two conspicuous points on the neighboring hills, and fixed the position so that it could be marked on a largeâ€"scale map for purposes of shelling the place. Meanwhile my pursuers, satisfied that I was not in the interior of the power house, proceeded to examine & shed close by. One man went into it, while the other, by accident or design, stood at the foot of the ladder by which I had come; so I climbed down the shorter ladder to the lower story, and from there I quickiy swarmed down a scaffolding pole and landed safely on the ground. Here I was out of sight of the man guarding the ladâ€" der, and taking care to keep the corâ€" ner of the building between us, I made my way out of the gate without being seen. immovable. He drew nearer to the ladder, passing almost under me, and looked in at the doorways of the unâ€" finished building. Then he doubtfully turned and looked back at a shed beâ€" hind him, and finally ran on round the next corner of the power house. To put an egg into a bottle without breaking the shel, soak the egg, which must be fresh, for several days in strong vinegar. The acié of the vinegar will eat the lime of the shell, so that while the egg looks the same it is really very soft. "Let me assure you France is united. People, Parliament and Govâ€" ernment never have been more firmly determined, in close accord with our heroic and faithful allies, never to lay down our arms until the day arâ€" rives when we shall have attained our goal, and if the road to Tipperary is long, the price is sufficiently high to justify us paying for all the delays, difficulties and sadnesses along the road, because the price is the liberaâ€" tion of the world." Lord Kitchener, speaking in French, thanked M. Millerand for his kindâ€" ness in extending an invitation to visit the French front, and said that after seeing the splendid troops of Gen.
