ROOSEVELT HITS RIGHT BACK
WASHINGTON. Aug. 2fi. Secre
tary Garrison today telegraphed
Major General Leonard Wood ex
pressing his deprecation that oppor
tunity was given at the citizens' sol
diery camp at Plattsburg, N. Y., for
Colonel Uoosevelt's sensational
speech of yesterday and directing
nothing similar should be permitted
at any of the other camps.
Secretary Garrison referred to Colonel
Roosevelt's remnrks on the military un
prcparedness of the country and the at
titude of the administration. Ills tele
gram to General Wood-follows:
"I have Just seen the report In the news
papers of the speech made by ex-l'resl-dent
Roosevelt at the Plattsburg camp.
It Is difficult to conceive of anything
which could have a more detrimental ef
fect upon the real value of this experi
ment than such an Incident.
"This camp, held under government
auspices, was successfully demonstrating
many thing's of great moment, its vir
tue consisted In the fact that t it con
veyed its own impressive lessons In Its
practical and successful operation and
results
Effect Distracting;.
"No opportunity should have been fur
nished to anyone to present to the men
any matter excepting that which was
essential to the necessary training they
were to receive. Anything else could only
have the effect of distracting attention
from the real nature of the experiment,
diverting consideration to Issues which
excite controversy, antagonism and 111
. feeling and thereby Impairing, if not de
stroying, what otherwise would have been
o effective
"There must not be any opportunity
given at Plattsburg or any other similar
camp for any such unfortunate oc
currences." Secretary Garrison said he had no
further action now under contemplation,
lie said ha had net discussed the matter
with- President Wilson and had no knowl
edge of the l resident's views. The secte
tary said he had not considered whether
his telegram to General Wood would have
any effect upon the general's record.

WOMAN HEARS PLOT
TO KILL PASTOR
Visitor to Cemetery Listens as Three
Men and Woman Arrange to
Slay Rev. Mr. Kayser.
ONE MAN IS UNDER ARREST
GARY. Ind.. Aug. 26. With the
arrest today of George Schneider, a
member of the Gary Saxon Verein,
charged with the murder of Edu;ond
M. Kayser, whose body was fouad
near his parsonage in Tolleston, a
suburb, Tuesday night, the police an
nounced they had abandoned the
theory the German pastor may have
been slain because of his pro-German
utterances. Schneider's face was cut
and bruised. He Is' said to have told
a relative he was in a fight Tuesday
night. Chief of Police Heintz de
clared his story unsatisfactory,
f chneider has been a member of St.
John's Evangelical church, Tolleston,
of which the Hev. Mr. Kayser was
pastor, but he is declared to have
been the pastor's enemy. The pastor,
it is said, had incurred the displeas
ure of members of the Saxon Verein
because of his opposition to plans of
thnt organiznt'on.
Developments In the Kayser murder
mystery today brought two women,
whose names were withheld by Chief
of Police Heintz. Into the case.
The first of these worner. is one who
was vls'tlng the grave of a child In
the cemetery near the Rev. Kayser's
home. The second woman was seen by
the first with three or four men on the
night of the murder, around a nearby
grave. They were, the first woman re
ported to Chief Heintz, plotting the
murder of Rev. Mr. Kayser.
At one stage they flipped a coin, ap
parently to decide who was to perform
certain tanks In connection with the at
tack on the preacher, whose pro-German
activities in speeches and writing In a
community which Included many Slavs,
friendly to the allies, made him a number
of enemies.
"I know a woman who took part in
the plot,' said Chief Heintz. She has
disappeared from her home. I. cannot
give out the name of the woman who
was an unwilling and frightened eaves
dropper in the cemetery, for I think It
would mean death to her. Following
up her story, however, we found the
footprints of three or four men and
one woman around the grave. I have
reason to believe that there are dozens
of persons of Tolleston who could tell
most of the story if they cared to, or
dared to. It Is a significant fact that
the grave where the plotters gathered
la so located that a view of the window
of the room where Mr. Kayser sat could
be had."

In a multitude of unusual stories is that

BERLIN, Aug. 26. ( Uy Wireless
to Sayville.) The Russian forlress
of nrest-Lltovsk has been captured
by Teutonic forces. Announcement
to this effect was made, today by the
German army headquarters staff.
German and AuHtro-Hnngarlan
troops stormed the works on the
western and northwestern front and
succeeded last night In entering the
fortress. Tho Russians, the state
ment adds, then gave up the fortress.
LONDON, Aug. 28. The invaders
of Russia, with Ossoweti safely in
their hands, are now rapidly gaining
the whole triangular railroad sys
tem which with its apex at Ulaly
stok, also serves Grodno and Osso-
wetx. The mass of heavy artillery
freed by the fall of Ossowetz and
Kovno is now being brought against
Brest-Lltovsk and Grodno, but not
without great difficulties.
Hereafter field maneuvering will
count more for the German armies
than the use of heavy artillery
against fortresses, but open field
movements may be cheeked by the
reported determination of the Rus
sians to dig themselves In when their
line has been reformed back of Brest
Lltovsk. Peril for Russians.
No further advance has been reported
along the Rlga-Kovno line, which pre
sents a perilous problem to the Russians,
but the Austrlans and Germans are get
ting rapidly within range of Ilrest
Lltovsk, notwithstanding the ohtaclcs of
fered by the swampy nature of that
region. No hint has been given, how
ever, that the Russians entertain any fear
that their armies will be trapped along
, this line.
The near east continues to present an
appearance of precarious balance between
the warring groups. The central powers
claim a diplomatic victory In the form
of a Turco-Uulgarian agreement, while
the entente allies apparently arc bring
ing Serbia around to their view that con
cessions are necessary to procure Bul
garia's adhesion to the reformed llnlkan
league.

Big Stream of Gold
Continues to Flow
Into Bank of Franco
PARIS, Aug. 2. Oold continues to flow
Into the Rank of France at the rat of
90,000,000 francs a week. Two and a half
million francs have been received thus
far from the reconquered part of Alsaoe.
The new twenty-five franc and five
franc bonds put on sale Monday have
given a fresh Impetus to the movement
among the working classes for Investment
In war loans and started a flood of
touching letters from children who
wished to empty their savings Into the
public treasury.
Deposits, exchanges and bond purses
have enabled the banks of France to send
200,000,000 francs In gold to England this
week without a fraction of the market
reaction that ordinarily would have re
sulted. Thin remittance of gold Is said
to be "for the anticipated needs of two
governments"
The principal purpose appears to be
maintenance of an equilibrium of the
rate of exchange of Paris on London,
which again show an upward tendency.
News that a loan of 100.0110,000 francs has
been taken by New York bankeia to cover
French purchases In America has
aroused sympathetic comment here. It
Is said that the loan is likely to ease
the exchange situation between Paris
and New Yoik.

NEW YORK, Aug. Foreign ex

The English pound sterling, usually

The Associated Tress Is in a posi
