There is evidence, however, that the Germans contemplate another desperate effort to get through to tho French coast ports. / Prepare to Defend Coast. Every report from Belgium hy way of Holland shows that the Germans jj-jare bringing up reinforcements and ■"suns, but so closely is the secret guarded that there Is no indication as to where, the blow Is to be delivered.

The United .States and Germany are among tlie powers which have recorded their acceptance of the declaration, while Great Britain has not taken tills action. One article of the declaration provides that It shall he binding as between belligerent powers only upon tbose by which it has been ratified. Soon after the outbreak of war it became evident that while they recognized in a general way the spirit of tlio declaration, somo of the belligerent powers Intended to insist ou great modifications of important details, basing their action upon tlie fact that thoy had not formally ratified tho convention. Since the declaration was in fact a compromise between the extreme views of the several governments which participated in the conflict, a high official hero pointed out today that it would have been neither just nor fair in Itho opinion of this government to consent to any modification. On this theory the state department felt obliged to withdraw from its adherence to the declaration, even before the German protest was received. In the course of his conversation with Ambassador von Bernstorff today Counsellor Lansing mado it clear thut ln the absence of general rules such . as the declaration to which all parties subscribed, the United States govern ment could deal only with specific complaints the German government might wish to present where it felt (bis government bad been remiss in the fulfillment of its duties as a neutral state. The German bill of protest presented today contains several specific declarations, but tlie state department has ub yet made no reply to theso. It is said, bowever, the contention that the British have violated tlie spirit of the declaration of London by seizing or detaining food supplies carried in neutral hot oms and consigned to German ports, directly or indirectly, is recognized by United states official circles as entirely sound. The same is true as to Hie complaint against the removal of German citizens not yet in a military establishment from neutral ships and also Hie extension by Great. Britain of contraband lists far beyond the limits fixed by the Loudon convention. In the opinion of American officials, however, no way is open to tho Unit ed states to require adherence by all belligerents to tlie strict. letter of tlie declaration of London. Great Britain has never ratified tlie declaration and Germany aud Austria aro therefore bsolved by the declaration Itself from adherence to its terms. It was this situation that led the stale department, to revert to the old practises of International law and treaties for guidance during the present war. ♦__ PORTUGUESE GLAD THAT THEY MAY ASSIST ALLIES fBv DMly News Leswid Win.)

HOW TOMMY ATKINS WIELDS THE BAYONET Private of Irish Guards Relates How Germans Have Tremendous Distaste of Cold Steel A vivid account of the British bayonet charges and the superiority of tiie BMtlsh light arms is given in a letter from Pte, .McC.lllicudtly of ■ the" Irish guards, which appeared in the .London Times of recent dale. It reads as foi lows: "The Germnns cannot fight like our haps. In (lie first'place, they eom on In large bodies, while we meet them ill" extended order. They cannot un dorstund bow .We nre able to fire so rapidly. Their rapid fire is only five minds pcr minute, whereas we can iCiul off 15 rounds In the same tlm* \t few days ago we were entrenched and they mude an attnek in order to break our lines, .lust ns they -were within 400. yards of us our infantry opened rapid fire, and to tell you the honest truth the scene that met my eyes was something terrible. They were falling as quick as oa'ts before tlie scythe. "They covered about ROD yard.-vwhen We Jumped out of our trenches at the eonimnnd "fix bayonets, charge." There wns a terrible slaughter. Only a few of them stood and faced our ihuyonets, - and. Lord have mercy on that few. They were, actually torn or cut to pieces. Those that ran away halted when they got to the sky-line and there put up their hands nnd the white flag. We followed them up and brought back six machine riulok-flrers and 311 prisoners. Those we captured had plenty of money but no food of any kind. "I sow many. Instances of German offieers shooting their men when they showed signs of fear at our bayonets. It is grand to see how Irishmen act and obey orders on the battlefield. When onec lliey" see* a comrade shot they put their whole heart and soul Into their work in order to get nt the scoundrel that laid low the man they loved."

(By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Nov. 25.—The part which King George is playing in the war fs pictured In the Express as follows: "A continuous round or increasing activity ami a maste-y of detail such as might tax even ?. great financier comprise the p/ecei.t dailv routine ot his majesty. Often soon after G o'clock in the morning the King is busy in his study and by the time his advisers and helpers appear he has conned the despatches and documents of the early delivery, mastered their contents and perhaps made number. of marginal notes in readiness for tin luithcoming conference, "The sight of the contents of the numerous despatch boxes would intimidate most men. Admiralty, war office; home office and Indian office all contribute their dailv quantum, while from the government comes a tremendous amount of pressing business which cannot be settled without the King's sanction, but happily controversial matters liave sunk into oblivion and there are no difficulties of this sort to contend with. "The problems continually arising aneht the war are many and great, but nothing is too intricate for the King, who insists on going into everv- thing and. seaing that the needs of Hie seryices are grappled with by the business heads of the various departments. "All qualifications, equipment and location of the new army are known to liis majesty, in the same way he follows the. fortunes of the auxiliary branches pf the naval services and he is also able to quote particulars of Indian and colonial aids to the colors at a moment's notice. His majesty is also extremely solicitous as to the comforts of his fighting forces and makes continual Inquiries ns to the supply of food. clothes and the little extras that go to the maintenance of their health nd spirits. The slightest hint as to any need for any special article of apparel is accepted and . his majesty's invariable reply when anything outside the scope of the admiralty or war office is named is: 'I will tell the Queen.'"

With a desire to "secure for the mineral resources of British Columbia the splendid advertisement which can he obtained by the display of a representative collection of specimens ot tbe ores and other minerals of this province at the Panama-Pacific exposition next year the federal and provincial governments are co-operating . in the work of collecting such an exhibit The exposition at San Francisco will be probably the most important that has been held ln the United States and in spite of the war it will attract visitors not only from this continent but from many other parts of the globe. Among these visitors will he mln ing engineers and capitalists anxious to invest in mining enterprises. These are the men to attract whose attention the display of British Columbia ores Is to be exhibited. The mineral wealth of all portions of the province will be illustrated by the collection and special bulletins and reports, de* scrlptive of British Columbia mining opportunities, wlll be distributed to visitors to the mineral section nt the fair. Experience in the past has proved the value of exhibitions as a means of directing ..ttention to resources which are in need of, capital for their development and the magnitude ot the Panama exposition and of tbe advertising campaign that has been carried out to attract a large attendance will ensure that equally good results are secured in this case. WHY AID THE ENEMY? Much can toe sum in support ot tim opposition which ls being expressed in Great Britain to the continuance of payments of annuities to German royal personages who are living In the enemy's country or whose sons are fighting In the ranks of the kaiser's army. Germany has brought upon itself a struggle which will end only when that country's power to disturb the peace of tbe world has been completely crushed and until that object has heen attained no action which can in any degree prove of assistance to any person who is not whole-heartedly supporting Great Britain should be willingly taken. The Idea of paying out money which may be employed to buy a uniform, a sword or a pistol for an officer of the German army who is doing his best to defeat the nation which supplies blm with the cash savors of comic opera or a story by Mark Twain. ANOTHER GERMAN LIE NAILED. The Germans evidently have a poor opinion of the intelligence of the people of the United States. Last week Dr. Bernhard Dernberg, former minister of the colonies at Berlin, published an article in an American weekly paper in which he endeavored to prove that Great Britain had broken treaties and cited as evidence Prussian pacts with Portugal and with Italy and Austria—agreements which concern only the nations which signed tbem. Germany, again playing the part of injured innocence, has frequently charged that Great Britain had broken its word by violating the declaration ot London. To this contention the United States government <has given a reply which should at least bring it home to Germany that It will receive no aid from Washington in Its attempts to mislead the people of America by making wild and untruthful allegations against the honor of the British Empire. The object of the conference of which the declaration of London was a product was to make uniform the rules governing tbe action of tho great powera in the event of naval warfare and covered such matters as contraband of war and the taking of enemy reservists from neutral ships. At the conference there was such a wide difference of opinion on the part of the powers that a vain attempt to secure a compromise was made. That attempt is what ie known as the declaration of London. As a compromise It did not prove acceptable to Great Britain and France, although the United States and Germany both agreed to its provisions. In the declaration a clause was inserted that It should not be considered 'binding upon any powers that did not ratify it. Neither Great Britain nor France took this action. "'**i,TPTI Consequently tbe declaration of London as far as France and Britain are concerned Is no more binding then would an act of legislation passed by the Canadian house of commons hut not ratified by the senate nor signed by the governor-general be effective in the Dominion. The declaration of London, ahout which the Germans are so fond of talking, is simply a proposed agreement tn which neither Great Britain nor France has concurred. This Is clearly pointed out In a statement elv *»n out at Washington yesterdny which will convince the people of the United States that once again the government of imperial Germnny nnd its apologists hnve attempted lo distract attention from their own utter disregard of treaties and the principles of international law hy casting slurs nnon nn enemy who prefers to fight fairly.

Augustine BIrrell, secretary for Tre- 'end. correct J v described tho situation is'to the seditious newsnaners which nro being published In the Green Isle when he said thai he did not regard them ns a danger hut as an insult to the sentiments of the vast majority of the Irish people. The people of Great Britain have coined two new expressions to describe the chronic pessimists who take a dismal view of the progress of the war. They call them "Dismal Jimmies" and the "A.I.L.," the latter representing the "all is lost" brigade. There are a few. of these useless Individuals In all countries, Confirmation by a Dominion government investigator of the report that German money was used to finance the attempted Hindu Invasion of British Columbia last summer Indicates the ramifications of Prussian efforts to secure world domination. But the attempt to cause disaffection among the Hindus in India was foiled as effectively as most of tbo other schemes of the German empire. Mrs. Pankhnrflt, former militant suffragette, who is now touring Canada, says that she had her faith in men revived by the manner in which tiie men of Great Britain have responded to the call of duty. It Is to bo hoped that when the war Is over it will he found that the misguided women who played the part ot wild- eyed furies in the motherland for the past seven or eight years will regard that period as a shameful episode of the "votes for women" movement which must not be repeated, •> '.■^9444444^*'/^4 -?-5 <? -s - iy? 4-94*&_44> * 9 4 <!> WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING .. 4 9 neighboring nation whom it had given Its solemn pledge to protect.—-New York Herald.

(By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Ont., Nov. 25.—Major- Gen.

Hughes incidentally took some raps at critics of himself and also declared that if the struggle Is not over by spring he himself will take the field. Addressing the Canadian club In the afternoon Gen. Hughes took unto himself the credit for the change In destination of the Canadian contingent to Plymouth. "I would not accept Lord Kitchener's advice that ample protection had been afforded for the transports and demanded to know what ships were being provided, with the guns they carried, and so on,'' he said. "As a result of this continual hammering away the people of England came to know that German submarines were hovering In the British channel." The minister also claimed that, hav- ing discovered that spies from the German empire were busy, he hnd sent out misleading statements as to the sailing of the contingent which completely foiled the Germans. The minister In referring tonight to criticisms said: "My critics will stop their yelping as a puppy dog chasing an express train gives up its job as a useless task."

FLAMES WEAPON OF GERMAN ARMY Frederic Wile Explains How Every Soldier Carries Discs to Ignite Houses. (By Frederic W. Wile In Chicago Tribune.) What I have seen proves conclusively that the Germans not only carried culture into Belgium, but also carried materials with which to set the country afire. A Belgian-American merchant who lived for a long time in New York before returning to his native country nas just arrived -in England from Antwerp and Brussels. He brought with him three small sacks about the size of n child's bean j. They were filled with innocent looking discs of charcoal about as large as an American 5 cent piece with a hole in the middle like a Chinese coin. These sacks had heen sold to him by a German soldier. They hear the printed number of the regiment, to the equipment of which they belong. The soldier said that every man in his regiment carried as many of the sacks as could comfortably be kept in his pockets or in the lining of his uniform. The discs have been freely used by the Germans in their campaigns in France and Belgium for the purpose of firing houses, buildings and forests in the enemy's country. ™~ Bursts Into Furious Flame, I have seen a prominent English chemist's analysis of the discs, which he certifies are made of nitrocellulose, a highly explosive and inflammable BubBtance. I myself have tested the amazing qualities of these discs, which the British soldiers have nicknamed "German confetti." As soon aa a match Is applied to the disc It splutters like a freshly lit firecracker and then hursts into furious flame like lighted kerosene. The disc does not remain in the spot where it is thrown, but jumps about like a firecracker. The combustion causes no noise, and when the disc has done its work not a solitary trace of what caused the fire can be found. The German soldier explalsed that the practise is to light an entire sack of the discs and then hurl them through the window or door of the building which tbe troops desire to burn. ■ Three different forms of this Incendiary ammunition have come to the attention of the British war office. One is a twig-like piece, another is a small square slab, and the third is the disc heretofore described. The French and Belgian officials have positive evidence that countless buildings in various regions have been set aflame by this "German confetti." Plan Retreat From Belgium. The merchant who possesses this remarkable proof of the methods of warfare to which Germany has resorted informs me that there is unmistakable evidence that the German army is quietly preparing for an eventual retreat rrom Belgium. The German troops are still being told that the reason that the advance on Paris has been abandoned is the widespread prevalence of cholera In the French capital. This merchant also asserts that the spirit of the German army Ib tar from being as loyal aa thought abroad. He declares that the German soldierB are secretly offering to barter or sell their uniforms to obtain civilian clothes in order to desert to Holland, wblch, he said, already contains many hundreds of deserters, who contrived to cross the frontier In citizens' garb| Visitor—So you've had three dogs, 11 cows and two horses killed by autos so far this year. Why don't you put in a complaint? Farmer—Never! I'm willing to take ray medicine. I was one of tho yaps that kept hollering for -good roads.

FISHERIES AGREEMENT MAY BE RECONSIDERED (By Dnily News Leased Wiro.) OTTAWA, Nov. 25.—There is still a possibility of tho fisheries agreement between Canada and the United States being ratified *by treaty. The resumption of negotiations would have to come, of course, from the United States as the Canadian government recently gave notice that' the negotiations were off, so far as it was concerned, owing to the long delay of tho United States in ratifying the agreement. Tho fisheries department her0 had, In fact, begun the formulation of new fishery regulations to he enforced by Canada on the various boundary waters, Word has reached Ottawa from nn authoritative source, however, that Ihero ls a desire at Washington to have the matter taken up. If this should not lead to the rat lfi cation of the agreement it Is urged hero in some quarters that Canada should meet thc American fishermen at their own game. This Is spawning time on the great lakes and fishing with nets Is prohibited In the Canadian waters, while the American fishermen are still allowed to make large catches. Similarly at the Pacific coast the Canadians are restricted while the Americans can use nets. To remove the restrictions on Canadian fishermen on the various bound ary waters would put them on an equal footing with the Americans, but it would hasten the depletion of the fisheries. This In turn would compel some International agreement for the restoration and preservation of the various fisheries. CANADA ASKED TO SEND FRUIT TO BRITISH TARS (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

PAYMENTS MADE TO GERMAN FAMILIES Asquith Asked About Annuities to Royalties Whose Sons Are Fighting Against British Empire. (By Daily News Lensed Wire.) LONDON, Nov. 25, 10:42 p.m.—The question whether the payment of big annuities was being made to certain relations of the reigning royal family when members of their families were fighting for Germany against Great Britain was raised In the commons today by William Young, M.P. for Perthshire. Mr. Young asked Premier Asquith whether he was aware that Prince Albert of Schlesweig-Holsteln, son of Princess Christian of Schlesweig-Holsteln, a daughter -of the late Queen Victoria and aunt of King George, was engaged as a combatant with the German army; whether the prince was In this country at the outbreak of the war and whether any effort 'had been made to detain him. Mr. Asquith replied that he had heen informed that Prince Albert "waB serving in a military capacity in Germany," but that he had no knowledge when he left England. Mr. Young then suggested that the status ot the prince's family, who, he said, evidently were German citizens, should be inquired into and asked the premier whether he considered it "just and expedient that the British taxpayer should he called upon to pay $30,000 per annum for the upkeep of this German family." To this Mr. Asquith would not reply. The propriety of continuing a similar pension to the Duchess of Albany, widow of a son of Queen Victoria, whose son, the Duke of Saxe-Cohourg and Golha, is -fighting for Germany, also has been questioned.

Our own ships could pass by a channel known ortly lo our own pilots. The possibility of laying* such mines cannot 'he doubted nfter the experience we have had, provided that it iba carried out under cover of artillery. Ambitious Scheme '.'Besides tho mlnrs our torpedo and submarine division would come Into action. The latter can move, almost hid (rum sight with only the periscope above water; through It the captain can see the sea and spy out danger or booty. The submarines will play a big role In the mlne-lnying*. When once these mines are laid forts with the heaviest artillery and airship sheds will be butlt. A guerrilla war, with submarines supported toy air cruisers will cause nur enemy much anxiety. "In tlie French harbors which Up opposite Great Ttfitaln our fleet of commerce-destroyers would also find n base.

When the French north coast Is in our hands such an Invasion—which is now con* si tiered a foolish romance—will foe slly possible, especially when England continues to send troops away from her Island.
