Many, of Ancient Origin, Seem to Have

(Mrnerationa of Peasantry.
LONDON. Jan. 26. (Correspondence
of the Associated Press.) The British
official eyewitness, in his latest dis-
n.tfh rof.r. to the number of charms
and amulets which have been collected
from prisoners. Many of these are
probably of ancient origin and have
been handed down through many gen
erations of peasantry.
Not a few of the prisoners are in pos
session of so-called "prayers." which
are really written charms against death,
wounds, disease and every Imaginable
eviL One such document mentioned by
the official eyewitness begins thus:
"A powerful prayer. whereDy one is
protected and guarded against shot
and sword, against visible and invisible
foe. as well as agamsi aii manner or
ea-il. May God preserve me against an
manner of arms and weapons, shot and
annon. long and short swords, knives
r daggers, or carbines, halberda.- and
anything that cuts or points, against
thrusts, rapiers, long ana snori iniea,
or guns, and such like, which have
been forged since the birth of Christ:
against all kinds of metal, be it iron
or steel, brass or lead, ore or wood."
After further circumlocution, tne list
goes on to include: "All kinds of evil
reports, from a blow from Denina, irora
witchcraft and poisoning."
Curiouslv enough, the list of dangers
omits the only "mischance which actual
ly befell the owner that or being made
a prisoner of war. The document is
of inordinate length, and ends with
some cabalistic letters and numerals
and with an obscure reference to a
blessing upon the Archangel Gabriel.
BAYONET MOST DEADLY
FF.W VICTIMS ARE EVER TAKKX
FROM TKKXt'HES ALIVE.
ihrapael Wounds Cause Most Infection.
Xeed of Large Hospital Behind
Base la Shown.
Nl-:w YORK. Feb. 12. Shrapnel,
causing Infection, makes most trouble
some wounds of the present war. dux
havonet wounds are the most deadly.
arcording to Professor Walton Martin,
of the department of surgery of Co
lumbia University, who recently was
encased in the American Hospital in
PaTis and who was a speaker toaay at
the alumni day exercises at Columbia.
The number of soldiers wounded by
ha von, -is who reach' the hospitals is
small, the surgeon said, and from his.
experience behind the British and
French trenches he was convinced that
few men thus wounded ever left the
trenches alive.
Fragments of uniforms, split open
wood and stone and chunks of soil
were probed out of the wounds of sol
diers felled by shrapnel, Vt Martin
si,l. "The ereirt danger is from ill'
fection." he continued. "Shrapnel makes
a big wound going in and a big wound
coming out. Out or 1UU cases unuer
his charge S2 wounds were caused by
shrapnel and every one of thenj was
infected. Of those due to rifle bullets
one-fifth were clean and the Infection
in the others was milder than tnat
made by shrapnel. In the 10J cases
there was only one bayonet wound.
One lesson taught by this war, ne
said, was the necessity ror a large
base hospital behind the fighting lines,
as the fatality list increases according
to the distance the wounded have to
be moved. A deplorable circumstance
in this connection, he noted, is tnat
the wounded can be taken out of the
trenches only at night.

Robinson submitted to arrest. At the

Monroe had sought to shoot him. so he
began firing. Monroe's gun fell from
his pocket as he collapsed to the pave

ln the recent mineworkers' troubles,
principally because of his radical ut
terances from public platforms, and
his threat made publicly at a recent
meeting of the "unemployed" that he
would be found inside of four walls
before he would be forced to leave

Figure Baaed on War Laatlns Year

PARIS. Jan. 26. Correspondence of

his Revue, arrives at a grand total of
$34,000,000,000 as the final bill the al
lies would have to render to Germany,
Austria and Turkey In case the latter
were defeated after a year's warfare.
Taking Paul Leroy-Beaulieu's esti
mate of $10,000,000,000 as the direct
outlay of all the belligerents for four
months of hostilities, and assuming
that the war will last a year. Monsieur
Finot arrives at a sum or over J14.000.

allies alone.
To the sums already expended must

armies, and thus arrives at a total of
nearly J30.000.000.000.
To this should still be added, ne con
siders, the value of the lives lost in
the conflict- - Taking the French tribu
nal!! valuation, and supposing 10 per
cent of the full strength of the allied
armies to be killed, he believes this
item would be over $4,000,000,000.
He said if the allies .were victorious
they would probably find Austria and
Turkey incapable bf contributing much
toward the liquidation, and that Ger
many alone would have to foot the
bill. He believed she was fully capa
ble of doing so, since in 1913 the Ger
man economists estimated the fortune
of the empire' at $20,000,000,000, includ
ing lad values, buildings, securities
and other personal property and prop
erty of the state.
The Germans pay to the government
only $12 per head, while the French
pay over $19, and the equalization of
the public charges would therefore
produce $400,000,000 a year. To this he
said would be added $250,000,000 as a
result of a reduction of armaments.
From such sources might be obtained
the interest on $20,000,000,000. and the
rest Monsieur Finot believed would be
found in the provisional exploitation of
state monopolies.

Man Who Sued Owner of Dacla for
Alienation of Wife's Affectlona

NEW YORK, Feb. 12. A jury trying
a suit for $250,000 damages brought
against E. N. Breitung, millionaire
owner of the steamship Dacia, by Max
Kleist, who married Miss Juliet
Breitung. the defendant's daughter,
was discharged today in the Federal
Court because of the publication yes
terday of stories to . the effect that
Kleist had been twice assaulted since
his wife had ceased to live with him.
The court held that publication of these
stories would doubtless tend to influ
ence the jury in Kleist's behalf.
Kleist based his action on alleged
alienation of his wife's' affections from
him by her parents.
Before discharging the jury. Judge
Hand called to the witness-stand news
paper reporters, who testified that
Kleist had made yesterday morning
before the opening of court the state
ment attributed to him in the news
papers concerning the alleged as
saults. In discharging the jury the
court directed that the expense of a
new trial, if ordered, be borne by
Kleist.
Kleist was quoted as saying yester
day that one of the assaults was com
mitted in New York City by gangsters
and the other in a New Mexican mine
owned by the defendant.

BERLIN, via London. Feb. 12. An
appeal to its readers not to allow ha
tred for Great Britain to lead them to
insult English-speaking persons in the
streets is printed by the Lokal Anzel
ger. The paper says it may be assumed
in the great majority of such cases that
the speakers are Americans. It re
minds its readers that diplomatic rep
resentatives of the United States have
assumed the protection of Germany in
lands with which that country is af
war.
Americans in Germany are entitled
to be treated as guests and the laws
of hospitality must be violated under
no conditions, the Lokal Anzeiger as
serts. In closing it says:
"Americans living here happily are
sensible enough not to hold the whole
people responsible for the excesses of
individuals."
Ambassador Gerard recently was an
noyed while attending a theater and
similar experiences on the part of other
Americans have occurred with in
creased frequency in the last few days.

Sir Roger Casement Charges
Servant Was Urged to Lure
Hfrn to Seacoast.
LEGATION LETTER SHOWN
Promise ot $23,000 Said to Have
Been Made on "Behalf of Gov- .
crnment" -Copy of Open
Letter Sent to Bryan.
BERLIN. Feb. 12. (By wireless to
Sayville, X. Y.) Sir Roger Casement,
leader of the Separatist faction in Ire
land, published here today an open let
ter to Sir Edward Grey, British Secre
tary of State for Foreign Affairs,
charging that he. Sir Roger, had docu
mentary evidence to substantiate
charges which he makes that the Brit
ish government is in a criminal con
spiracy to have him captured or killed,
says an item given out tonight by tire
Overseas News Agency.
Sir Roger made a statement, contin
ues the news agency, charging Mans
feldt de C. Findlay, British Minister
to Norway, with conspiring with Sir
Roger's man-servant, Adler Christen
son, a Norwegian, for the capture or
killing of Casement, for which Chris
tenson would receive at least $25,000.
Reward Promised for Canture.
Sir Roger showed a photographic
copy of what purported to be a letter
written on British legation paper at
Christiania in the Minister's handwrit
ing and over his signature. The writer
of this letter promised "on behalf of
the British government" that if.
through information given by Christen
son. Sir Roger should be captured
either with or without his companions,
Christenson would receive "from the
British government" 5000.
Christenson personally declared, ac
cording to Sir Roger, thtt Mr. Findlay
told him to lure Sir Rcger to a point
on the coast where a British ship
could run in and get him, "or, still
better, to- knock him in the head."
Sir Roger said that he had asked the
Norwegian government to promise him
protection and that after this promise
was received he would go to Chris
tiania immediately and lay before the
government proofs of the British Min
ister's alleged conspiracy with a Nor
wegian subject on Norwegian soil.
Copy la Sent- to Bryan.
Sir Roger's letter has been submit
ted to the American Ambassador and
the representatives of other neutral
countries for their governments and a
copy also has been directed to Secre
tary of State Bryan at Washington.
Sir Edward Grey announced in the
House of Commons on February 4 that
the pension allowed to Sir Roger Case
ment, who was Tormerly in the con
sular service, had been suspended pend
ing an investigation of allegations that
he was disloyal. A sensation was
caused in England last November when
it was reported that Sir Roger had
conferred with the Gorman Imperial
authorities in Berlin concerning what
attitude German troops would have to
ward Ireland If they landed there.
It was said that he was assured that
if Germanv troops should land in Ire
land all native institutions would be
respected.

FOR A BAD COLD
The surest way to stop a cold is to
liven the liver and cleanse the bowels,
and the nicest cathartic to do this is a
10-cent box of Cascarets, Take one or
two Cascarets tonight and ycur cold
may be gone by morning. Adv.
CHAT
The woman who does not admire beautiful gowns and costly
'jewels does not live.
Which brings me to the fact that in our wonderful production
tomorrow at the Peoples Theater of Gaby Deslys in "Her
Triumph" Mile. Deslys wears over $100,000 worth of late Parisian
creations; some of the magnificent gems given her by King Manuel
and -plumes that cannot be described.
I learned this from a personal letter today to me from Daniel
Frohman, who produced "Her Triumph" in Paris. MM'
Deslys appears with Harry Piker, her dancing partner, and she does
her novel Danse Deslys and the famed Apache dance.
The operator ran "Her Triumph" off for me yesterday privately,
and I give you my word I never imagined anything one-half so
gorgeous.
Everyone has heard of the famous Gaby, so I do not need to tell
you who she is. The fact that one King lost his. throne through
love of her tells part of the story.
Mary Pickford closes her engagement tonight with "Mistress
Nell." At the Star tomorrow you will find John Emerson in I he
Bachelor's Romance
