WHO STARTED
AFTER i'our ycitrs of lying, in which England was blam
ed hy the (ici inan government as responsible for the
war, Dr. Richard von Kiielhinann, (lerman foreign see
ratary, in a speech in tlie Reiclistag, switches the responsi
bility upon Russia, with France abetting her and England
supporting her. This also is a lie and we have the words
of acknowledged German authority that Germany willed
tho war for purposes of conquest.
Tho story has been told by socialists in the reiclistag.
It has boon confirmed from many sources. It was recently
related anew by former American Ambassador Morgon
thau, who secured it from German Ambassador AVagon
heiin at Constantinople, who attended the conference held
July 5, 1911, at Jierlin, where the kaiser decided upon war,
and after arrangements had been completed, left on a
cruise in northern waters, as a blind. Mr. Mergonthau
says:
Wangenholm told mo that tho kaiser solemnly put tho question to each
man In turn. Was ho ready for war? All replied "Yes" except tho flnan
clors. They said they must have two -weeks to sell their foreign securities
and to make loans. At that timo few peoplo had looked upon tho Sara
jevo tragedy aB something that was likely to cause war. This conferenco
took all precautions that no such suspicion should 'ho aroused. It decided
to glvo tho 'bankers timo to readjust tholr finances for tho coming war.
and then tho several members went quietly back to their work or started
on vacations. I ' . t
In tulling mo about this conferenco, Wangonliohn, of course admitted
that liormany had proclpllated tho war.
The Liclmowsky memorandum gives the lie direct to
various official hooks Germany issued to show the guilt of
innocent nations. Prince Liehnowsky Mas Gorman ambas
sador to Great Britain when war was declared, and his
high J'opute makes his assertions unquestioned even in
Germany. .The truth of his testimony is admitted by err
von Jagow, who was Germany's foreign minister at the
time. It is corroborated by )r. Muhlon, who was manag
ing director of the Krupp gun factory in 1914.
After setting forth all the damning evidence against
Germany, and detailing the lengths England went to avoid
Wiir and placate Germany, Prince Liehnowsky sums it up:
"First . Wo encouraged Count Ilorchtold (the Austrian foreign min
ister) to attack Serola, althq no Gorman interest was involved and tho
danger of a world war must havo boen known to ns.
"Second. We rejected Great Hritain's plan of mediation in the days
between tho 2.'ld and 30th of July, 111 14. We did this after Mr. Sasanof
(tho Knssian foreign minister) had emphatically declared ho could not
tolerate an attack on Sorhla; after Serbia, upon pressure from Russia and
Kngland, hnd accepted nearly tho whole of the ultimatum, all but two
points, In themsolvos not hard to adjust; and oven after Count Berchtold
(the Austrian foreign minister) was ready to bo satisfied with tho Ser
bian answor.
"Third. On tho 30th of July, with Count Berchtold willing to listen
to reason, before Austria was touched, on the more mobilization of Rus
sia, wo sent our ultimatum to Russia and on the 31st of July wo declared
war on Russia, altho tho czar had plodged his word that as long as negotia
tions -wore 'going on not ono man would ho sent on the march. We thus
deliberately destroyed ovory chance of a peaceful settlement.
"It is no wonder that in tho prosenco of thoso indisputable facts tho
whole civilized world outsldo of Germany lays the cntiro blame for the
world war at our door.'1
Dr. Muhlon-statos that Dr. llelfferick, since vice-chancellor
of Germany, then director of the Deiitsch bank, told
him in the middle of July that "the Austrians have
been wit h the kaiser. 1 n a week's time Vienna will send a
very seven.' ultimatum to Serbia, with a very short inter
val for an answer. A whole scries of definite satisfactions
will he demanded at once; otherwise Austin-Hungary. will
declare war on Serbia." This is the ultimatum German
authorities have insisted they were not consulted about.
Ilclfforich added that the kaiser approved this procedure
on the part, of Austria and that "if Russia mobilised, he
would mobilize also, but in his case mobilization meant im
mediate war."
Muhlon consulted Dorr Krupp von E-ohlen, head of the
Krupp plant, and .Krupp confirmed the kaiser's purpose,
Maying that, "the kaiser had told him (Krupp) that he
would declare war immediately if Russia mobilized and
that this time the people would see that he did not turn
about."
llerr von Jagow, Germany's foreign minister at, the
outbreak of the war, in replying to Prince Liehnowsky 's
evidence, makes this startling admission, among others:
"J by no means share the opinion prevalent among us to
day that England laid all the mines for the outbreak of the
war; on the contrary, I believe in Sir Kdward (! rev's love
of peace and in his earnest wish to arrive at an agreement
with us. Neither was the war popular with the
Knglish people. Belgium had to serve as a battlefield."
Von Jagow even admits that war might have been
averted by an international conference on the Serbian sit
uation. "We could not agree," he says, "to the English
proposal of a conference of ambassadors, for it would
doubtless have led to a soiioiis diplomatic defeat. For
Italy, too, was pro-Serb, and, with her Iialkan interests,
stood rather opposed to Austria."
That is to say. Von Jagow admits that war was chsen
hy Germany as an alternative to an international confer
ence, which would have declared the Austrian demands on
Serbia unjust even in the eyes of Italy, the allv of Austria
and Germany.
As Liehnowsky says, Germany is governed hv a caste
of duelists who are determined to rule Ihe world hv the
sword, who know no law save that of neecssit v and wlio are
entirely void of honor and the sword will have to be
broken in the hands of the kaiser before the world will be
able to live with Germany. The kaiser's statesmen "lie bv
day, lie hy night, and lie for the mere lust of Iving."

WASHINGTON, Juno 27. The
Lisbon Keetilo publishes fin interest
ing description of the suhmnrines
Italy has furnished to Portugal, and
their voynge from Spezin to the Ta
gus. They were titled out and arm
ed with the utmost, celerity in tho
docks of Helium, Portugal, to take
part in coast defense. The three ves
sels, the Foca, iho Golfinho, and the
Ilidrn, wero built in Italy, and made
a voyage through the Straits of llib
rallar, which tested their seagoing
(juaiitics to the full.
Alter Hint two attcmps to cross the
Gulf of Lyons failed, owing to ihe
strong northwest wind which raised
mountainous seas. The submarines,
which began to ship water through
their turrets, were obliged to return to
port. The sea was so rough that u
steamship of 0,000 tons foundered.
Tho third time the divers steamed
from Toulon they wero warned by
wireless that n German submarine
was lying in wait for them. They
hugged the coast, but afler nn hour,
when about four miles from land, in
they vicinity of Cettc, they helped the
rescuers at the wreck of n Spanish
ship, whoso company was taken off
by the French torpedo boat, escorting
the submarines. '
From t'ctle they tried to make I'orl
Verniers wilh a strong soulhwest
wind, but were obliged to return to
port after a furious fight with Ihe
sea. The commander ot the r reneh
convoy praised the sea-going quali
ties of the Italian divers. When the
sea grew calm they crossed from Port
Venders to Orun in o4 hours. The ves
sels reached Lisbon in the best con
dition. Lieutenant Machndo said
they represented nn advance on any

NUJOL LABORATORIES,

BAYONNE, N. J.
Dear Sirs :
I cave Nujol to i patient who had been tr-mbled
for years with intestinal trouble and constipation. The one
bottle worked wonders, and she now keeps N'Jjol on tand
and uses it at the least feeling of unrest. I have recom
mended Nujol many times and results arc always met
pleasing.
Queens, L. I., Sincerely,
Dec. 24, 1916. E. Z. Page, M. D.
IT makes no difference how long you have stiffen'. I from
constipation, Nujol relieves stubborn as well as occasional
cases with equally sure and pleasant results. Start no to
use this safe and effective remedy which Dr. Page and other
eminent physicians so highly recommend and prescribe. .
Nujol restores healthy bowel habits in a gentle, natural way,
without the least griping or dangerous reaction. That's be
cause Nujol contains no drug, and so causes no artificial
stimulation. Avoid harmful pills and salts that sap bowel
strength with weakening reaction. Nujol is a pure, unmixed
remedy; and pleasant to take. Perfectly safe for all. Be
"regular as clockwork " use Nujol.

EXPEDI
PORTLAND, Juno 27. "Commo
dore'' W. H. Hardy, solo survivor of
the Perry e.xlpediiion to Japan in
1S32, shot himeslf nt his home near
Mount Calvary cemetery yesterday
following n period of insanity that
had led him earlier in the day to run
naked through tho cemetery.
Reports of tho venerable sailor's
plight reached Sheriff Hurlburt's of
fice and two deputies wero sent out
to investigate.
Seeing them approach. Hardy call
ed out, "I will shoot tho first inun
that conies near."
Knowing Hardy for a crack shot,
the men hesitated at the gate. A few
moments later they heard a shot, and
rushed into the house nnd found
Hardy lying on the floor with n bullet
having lodged somewhere inside his
forehead. He was taken to the coun
ty hospital where it was said his con
dition is extremely serious.
Hardy had recently returned from
n triumphal return visit to Japan, his
trip having been financed by some of
the prominent Japanese of the Pacific
coast. He was welcomed by the em
peror, by other high dignitaries of
Nippon and was given every attention
by residents nnd American visitors.
Tho Perry expedition is credited
with being the entering wedge for ihe
development of the Asiatic Pacific
coast and Iho opening of trans-Pacific
commerce. It was this event
that made for Hardy, the only -living
member of Ihe historic party, such a
cordial greeting.
Hardy is 82 years of age.
