NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—By an Associate Editor of the Army and Navy Journal.—The smashing- plunge of the German army on thc allies' lines from Brussels to Waterloo has pushed them buck on the strong defensive lines of tho river Dyle and is more clearly developing the German plan of operations, It Ib a principal of military tactics that an army launched on a movement must bo pushed through. Any vacillation results in confusion. The (buttle now going on may be expected to, continue until the Germans have, been "through" and* separated the Belgians from their French and British allies or until they have met an allied force strong enough to turn them back. ' While the news is fragmentary, it shows definite military moves; The presenco of the guard corps and of the German helr-uppnrent ls,slgnlflcant. Most Important German Army For reasons of policy and sentiment lt Is customary to attach the guard corps to the most Important urmy of the country. This indicates that the movo through Llcge embraces tho principal part of tbe German active army. The rail system oi- Germany also tends to (his conclusion. Thu main lines of railroads from all north Germany lend to tho Dussoldorff- Cologne district. This means that tho Germnn armies can ibe most quickly moved to this district and can be most readily supplied there. Fivo German army corps, tlio fourth, seventh, ninth, tenth and tho guard corps, have been located west of Llege. The length of lino occupied indicates that at least eight corps* are on the main line and probably 10 corps. This would mako a force of 350,000, which by now ls being dally Increased by reserve organization. Franc* Has Learned Lesson Tho locations of tho French army Indicate that Franco could readily move eight corps to oppose this German advance. Until the arrival of the British reinforcement the French were In danger of being outnumbered by the German forces. The withdrawal from tho line of the Dyle and the- abandonment of Brussels to the Germuns indicated that France has. taken to heart the lesson of 1870 und that she is depending upon her main line of resistance closo enough to homo territory to allow her army to get thoroughly organized before tlie deciding buttle. The German capture of Brussels at first reading would seem to be u great military advantage, but two things lead me to think that no decision hus yet been reached ln the battle be* tween the opposing armies in this district, Antwerp Strong Fortress. First, American refugees were not only allowed to take trains from Purls to the English channel, but were allowed to go all the way across France from Switzerland during the concentration of the French nrmy at the border. This would indicate, that the French army moved to the front rapidly and satisfactorily, according to the plans previously mude, France should therefore have now tn the theatre of operations the army deemed necessury to stay the German advance, also placed In u defensive line selected for tills end. The second reason Is that, lt h&s been known for many years that Belgium has not planned a prolonged resistance in the field to tlio paBsago of a hostile urmy. In 1887 the Belgian council of defence decided that Bel- glum could count only on holding Antwerp until allien could come to hqr aid. Antwerp was defended by a continuous liuBtloiied line. This hus since been further strengthened by a lino ol detached forts entirely surrounding the city, bo that Antwerp Ib now one of the strongest fortresses In Europe. As .a further defence, similar lines of forts were constructed about Llege and, Namur.ln 1887 to 18W,.in order that a garrison holding them might deny the valley of the Meuse river to an enemy. It ls probable that the French general staff in its plans for a war witn Germany huve counted on little assistance from Belgium. The resistance put up so fur uus beeu u surprise to all students and the delay oi the Gorman advance has been of enormous value to tbo French. Threatens German Fiank. The retirement of a portion of the Uelghm army to Antwerp will guard the present capital of the country trom cupture by Uermuns and will also tbieuten tue Uermuu flunk lu case of their further advance, requiring the Uermuns to detach un equal force to oppose tlio Beiglpn garrison.

No censorship on cables and modifl* cation of the present strict supervision of wireless Is contemplated In the plan. Should the German government, ■which has -protested agnlnst the strict censorship of the wireless, approve the new suggestion, it will be promptly put into effect. The Plan would permit the sending of code messages at the Snyville, L..I., wireless station by the German gov ernment or any other government, but an American naval officer would be retained in charge to prevent unneutral messages being sent. Under the tentative Instructions given by Secretary Daniels of thc navy department, stating President Wilson's order, no code messages of any hind have been permitted to leave the coast wireless stations. Germany pointed out that under The Hague convention a neutral nation is not obliged to censor messages. The American government took the position, however, that military or naval Information should not be transmitted from the shores of the United States directly to ships at sea, thut this was tantamount to using American territory as a base for hostile operations. At first It was contended und virtu ally decided that the American government should apply equal tensor- ship on cables and wireless. The point was debated in cabinet council, however, and the conclusion was reached that the cable did not stand in the samo relation as the wireless. To censor the wireless, moreover, it was realized, would mean a stupendous undertaking. England protested against a possible censoring of the cable, claiming that Germany was at liberty to cut the cables at sea. It was finally admitted that while under international law a neutral government -was not re quired to censor cable messages, it should protect Itself against the un neutral use of wireless stations as there was no physical means for bei llgerents to interfere with wireless messages when once sent from a neu tral station.

"Thero is no harder worker on the team than Schang, and he is Improving in tactics, but his value is offset oy his erratic throwing. Stealing on Schang hns been a profitable man* Sliver for many teams in this brush. Schang Is game, and doesn't hesitate to throw at any time, ibut his dlsposl* tlon to chuck the ball wild has often opened the avenue to the plate for op ponents. 'No fault can be found with Schang. He had very little experf enco when he came here and he will hav0 to 'be educated in championship games. His -ability to drive in runs Justifies Mack in using him frequently behind the bat.

Ho realized quickly the dream of hatred of the destroyer of the dead. Ho was the "*»" who organized tho feudal mltltary plan to overrun Servia and to open the way to Salonika, It was he, the cursed, who conceived the iniquitous project of destroying the pan-slavonic movement and he provoked tho European conflagration to uphold tho balance of tho Hapsburg monarch. 'Tho old and decrepit Francis Joseph, who favored peace, fell at onco into tho hands of the feudal party of thc military clique with little thought of tho crisis to come Ii/.er and which would spread throughout Europe. They wero taken toy surprise and did not understand how the triumphal journey of Francis Ferdinand through tho annexed provinces would prove so insulting to Servia as to provoke the tragedy at Sarajevo. It was equivalent to sending Austrian police to Belgrade to aid in tho processes of high treason. "It is impossible to relievo the crisis between Austria and Servia, now that diplomacy haa failed and tho armies are ready. In this contention ono Is wrong. The Austrian government desires war and is pleased with tho German alliance. Can Russia rcmnln neutral and permit Austria to annihilate Servia? Sirch a thing Is Impossible. Franco has for 40 years de* sired the destruction of Gormany. It is known that in 20 years sho would havo little chance of victory. ' "The only sincere friends of pence wore Italy and England, but in the course of events they are forced to look after their own interests nnd to live up to tholr treaties. Of the two, Italy is the more embarrassed, as she is obliged to live up to the terms of her treaty with Austria In splto of the fact that the sympathies of the nation are with Servia and the Irlplo en tonte. The national antipathy that the Italian people have for Austria is especially strong in northern Italy. But the government is hound to fricn-|ihlp by treaties. Tho accident of Prevesa and tho decree of the Prince Hohenloe were provoked at Trieste and were resented at Flume. It Is impossible that tho Italian people would agree to support Austria in arms. The ultimatum which was sent by Francis Joseph to the Vatican has.not proved very satisfactory t*»j the Roman gov ernment. The crisis 'between Sorvla ond Austria is very serlpUB and may break out at any time. Is It possible that Servia can resist Austria unaided? Is it possible that Europe will permit Austria to permanently occupy Servian terltory? Can Italy remain neutral and permit an Austrian Invasion of the Belconl peninsula? The enemies of the peace of Europe are at Berlin and Vienna. Wilhelm hus strained at the bit for several years and has never made a move on account of his fear of the British fleet. But for the last 10 years he has found In the person of the heir to the Austrian throne a docile and yet ferocious Instrument, docile to thu kaiser .but ferocious in his ambition to increase 'tie prestige of tl'o Hapsburgs and to damage'Italy and Sorvla. So In the twentieth century will tho stnry of an IhauHpleiou-* operative of u cursed dynast/ be written lu blood."

The mechanism is operated In the usual way 'by a keyiboard, but, instead of dying gradually away as they do with ordinary piano notes, maintain their volume as lon*g as tho key Is pressed.

The proposal of Major-General Lord Aylmer that German prisoners of war should be sent to Canada nnd given an opportunity of taking up land and becoming settlers Is one which Is worthy the favorable consideration of the government of Canada and or the Imperial military authorities. In this war, it should he distinctly understood, there ls no animosity either on the part of the people of Canada or of Greut Britain against Germans as a people. ■ Past experience hug shown that thc Germans make excellent settlers and readily adapt themselves to conditions In tbls country, becoming in practically every case, in the second generation at least, patriotic Canadians. In any such move there must, of course, be no coercion. German prisoners of war taken by the Hritiah however, could very well be brought to Canada to he held until the ond of the wur and on Its conclusion could bc given tbe option of settling in this country or of being sent home to Germany. PRESIDENT WILSON'S MEDIATION The offer of President Wilson of tlie United States to mediate between the contending powers of Europe, while it will of course be courteously received and replied to, appears nevertheless Utopian Hnd IU timed. One cannot read the great address deliv* eied on August .: by Sir Edward Grey, minister of foreign affairs in the home government, reported verbatim in the London Times just received, In which hy sots forth the efforts which have been put forth by tho 'British government to mediate between the great powers of Europe to prevent this war, and the ill reception which these efforts hud from Germany and Austria, and tho obligations which rested upot* Britaln which required her Intervention therein, with the knowledge of the high esteem entertained for Sir Edward by the European powers u*\1 of the great extent of the British preparations for warlike operations which have since taken place, without having a realization that any Intervention at this stage cuuuot be but fruitless of good. It Is true that the German imperial chancellor did on August 15 give an interview, in which he represented "the war us u life and death struggle between the Germans an-d the Russians, arising from the assassination of. Archduke Francis Ferdinand and hla wife," and as declaring that England ovails herself of a long-awaited opportunity to begin a war for tho destruction of the commercially prosperous Germuny, &c„ ftc, and asking tho American people for their sympathy and good will In the fight of Germany against one-sided English representation:-' und against a slightly cultured barbarism. This appeal of tlm German chnncellor may possibly be the reason of the proposed mediation of the president. The duy for mediation has, however, passed, as the president cannot hut find out. Neither side can now recede. The making of this appeal, is, however, strong evidence that Germany realizes that the war had not, down to that date at least, proceeded to hor satisfaction.

Mr. White said that the circumstances were exceptional. It was only two weeks since war was declared and the government had beon obliged to face an altered situation. It was possible the government might have to adopt other measures to raise war taxes. For tho present it was thought best that the tax be moderate and general. He snld that tbe new taxes would 'be a comparatively small ■burden and the question of raising further revenue could be considered later. P. B. Carvoil said be realized that this was not the time to discuss ways and means of raising revenue. However, there were many on his side of tho house who did not agree with this. He hoped that when the next move camo tho man with tho fat bank, ac--, count would be called upon to show his loyalty. Ho would have liked to havo seen the liquor tax heavier. Mr. White said that the tariff experts whom he hud consulted were unanimous In the view that taxes on liquors had been raised as high as they could possibly go. Any further Increase would not result in an increase in revenue. Mr. Carroll said be hud been asked by the labor organizations in his constituency, -South Baton, to protest against any increase in the taxation on necessities of the poor. He proposed a stamp tax on cheese, automobiles nnd incomes. A large revenue could be produced by such taxes and the burden would fall upon people able to pay. Dr. Edwards of Frontcnac figured that the sugar tax would umount to about $3 per family per year. Ho did not think the Canadian people would object to paying it.

"Tho pontiff shed a few tears while with his tired hand, he made slow'f the sign of the cross. His venerable white head rested softly on his pillow, his eyes were bright and his face bore the smile which lighted It throughout Is life. Ho wns an example of the most perfect calm ln the face of death." PLAY BALL AT ROSSLANP TOMORROW (Special to The Dally News.) ROSSLAND, B.
