trong's "Drcadnaught," foil while taking
a picket fence on the outer course about
100 yards from the tun bark oal.
The few scattered society folk In the '
grandstand roe to their feet with a i
gasp as Jackson, who Is SI. b. II. of the I
Hose Tree Hunt, was seen to plunge
over his horse's head He landed In a
sitting posture while his mount backed
up to the Jump. The rider then leinuunted
and finished the course.
Hardly had tlie oxiltement of the first
fail subsided when I.urmun Stewart, of

tine's horse, plunged head first over the
shoulders of Kalian, n lioi t ridden yes
terday by Mrs Valentine
Mr. Stewart fell directly In front of the
grand stand when Kalian struddled the
Jump after falling to clear. The rider
landed on his feet still retaining the
reins. He remounted and continued the
course.
Mr. Stewart Is visiting the John R.
Valentines nt Bryn Mawr lie came from

INTEREST IN HUNT CLASS.
One ot the events expected to prove
of more than usual interest is tho hunt
Oass with hounds w hleh will bo judged

prize Is offered" for the liest tttree
hunters shown with five couples of
American hounds by the master or
or huntsman with two whips In uniform.
The horses in this contest are not
entered by nam on the proct am and
considerable speculation Is rife as to
which steeds will be shown by their
owners. Among tho hounds In this class
arc the celebrated Kiddle pti.-k, the Chesh
ire foxhounds and packs from both the
Ttoso Tree and Pickering hunts.
An unusually large crowd, considering
tho oppressiveness of the day. was on
hand this morning when the Judges
entered the oal at 10:30 o'clock to pass
upon the merits of champion hunters.
Many horses found the tlff Jump In
front of the grandstand, where Kalian
-tftrew her rider, extremely difficult to tako
and frequently knocked over the rails.
Even veteran horses accustomed to Jump
ing failed to siicrssfully clar It.
Few persons except the re.il dyed-ln-the-bone
hone show enthusiasts braved
the sun. whose rays were of equal In
tensity with tlirse of midsummer, and
came to j.ec the morning judging
The stands were quite bare of spec
tators. As for the rleld, rail and ter
race, there were practically deserted.
Over In the tent, where pedigreed
American fox hounds were being Judged,
the crowd was particularly conspicuous
by its absence this morning.
Such mounts were entered as Willow
King, tho Virginian nnd St Winifred
from Samuel D. Riddle j Glen Riddle
Farms: Oypsle Queen, of Roy Jackson's
Hose Valley Slock Farm, and !". Am-tire-je

ENGLAND FIGHTING
HER OWN KIN, SAYS
GERMAN-AMERICAN
Should Have Taken Sides
With the Teutonic Race,
Says Otto Krell German
Wars for Own Existence.
"It thre are two count! les that sliou.d
stand .shoulder to shoulder against thi
Slavs and the yellow races, they nie
England and Germany, and future his
tory will declare It a crim that England,
which belongs to tho Teutonic race, with
out being attacked, fought against her
cousins on the side ot the Slav, tno Arab
and the yellow man."
So spoke Etlo Krell, vice piesldent o'
the Otto Gas Engine Works, a German
concern which maintains a branch Ir
Philadelphia at 23d and Walnut streets
today. Mr. Krell Is c German, and, k,
others ot his cojntr.'.mn In tho I'nll'-d
States, resents highly what he teims t i,
unjust and ho.Ullo attitude t varu C,
cianv,
WAR WAS INEVITABLE.
Speaking further, Mr. Krell saM.
"The whole of Europe, not i-nly Lit i
many, as the English press woul dhave us
believe, has been suffering for many
years from militarism, an.1 tho arma
ments on all sides have be :.ime so costly
and burdensome to the jiMinle that a
war was not only lnevltao'e, but nlmost
necesiary. In order to clear tni' atmos
phere and to prepare tho way lor a
lasting peace.
"France has made the idea of rc
enge its national fetish since 1S70, and
Its unnatural friendship with Russia
has had only one object, namely, tu
get even with Germany. France has
spent ns much money as Germany to
get Its army and navy ready nnd It
has loaned several thousand million
dollars to Russia to build up the Rus
sian army navy and fortiesses.
"Rusia has always dreamed of an
Ite-free port and she Is bound to se
cuie this sooner or later, probably later,
when it will be neccsary for England
to fight the Russian bear. Russia in
responsible for most of the upheavals
In the Balkans, and If It had not been
for her and her Intrigues Servia wouliT
never have dared to work secretly
against Austrta-Hungary, as she has
done for s,rat years.
"England has been sul'lerlng for years
from hysterics anil has believed that
Germany was building Its navy for tho
tole purpose of Invading England, and.
In consequence, she has spent untold
millions to build up n tremendous navy
a fine example of naval militarism.
RESENTS ENGLAND'S ACTION.
"England's action In Inviting the Japa
nese to attack the handful of Germans
in Tslng-tnu Is In harmony with English
history. England has always tried to play
one people against another and to let
others 'pull the chestnuts out of the fire'
for her. I do not believe that the Japs
have any more love for the English than
they have for tho Germans, the French
or the Americans, and their motto Is 'Asia
for the AsUtics.'
"A suftlclent answer to England's sanc
timonious indignation about the violation
of Belgian territory Is a reference to her
theft of Gibraltar, her wanton aggression
and annexation of the Hoer Republics,
her occupation and retention of Egypt,
the subjugation of Persia, etc.
"History will tlnd that this war was
forced on Germany, and If the German
people did not belifva thib we would nut
tlnd thern fighting like 'file man' and mak
ing sacrifices which only u people can make
that believes In the right of Its tause
Germany, with her lu.OW.Ort people, Is
no longer an agricultural countr). She
is absolutel dependent on hci Indus
tries, and as only about 60 per cent, of
her manufactures can be consumed In
Germany, she must export. If the markets
of the world are closed to her she must
either starve at home or let her people
emigrate.
"Every German feels that lie Is fight-
Ing for the existence ot his country, und
that the greatest danger threatens from ,
Russia, If the Allies win, Russia ill!
be supreme In continental Europe, and ,
then 'good-by' to European civilization.
The English believe that In case of vie- I
tory they tould stay the hands of Rus- I
sla. but they will find that their power
reaches Just about as far as the can-
nons on their ships, and If England
should try to dictate to Russia she will
simply be laughed at"

MRS. E. FREDERICK OATES
BRINGS TALES OF ATROCITIES
According to Her Informants, Ger
mnn Soldiers Shot Helpless Old Man.
Numerous stories of German ntrocltlcs
nre pouring Into this country with every
boat load of refugees Mrs. E. Frederick
Oates, 4623 Sansom street, president of
the Philadelphia Chapter of the Daugh
ters of the Confederacy, nrrived In Phil
adelphia yostetdny from the war zono
and brought with her more stories of
outrages attributed to the Germans. Ac
cording to her, German soldiers shot and
killed a helpless and unarmed old man
as he came out of a house In which ho
had been trying to protect an American
woman and her sick child. Regarding
this incident Mrs. Oates said: "Though I
was not an eyewitness to the act, I have
the utmost confidence In the veracity of
my Informants. The old gentleman was
n Scotchman nnd was In a small town
In Belgium. The Germans heard that
some English had taken refuge In tho
house and fired upon It. Tho American
ran into the street and shouted to the
soldiers, 'Surely you would not shoot a
helpless woman and children. At this
moment tho old man appeared in the
doorway to protest. He was shot dead.
The woman whom he had been aiding
rushed to the soldiers snjlng, 'Ho has
been my snvlour and Is an old man. Do
not shoot him.' But her words were
hardly out of her mouth when tho man
fell to the ground.
"It Is a matter of common report
nhroad," she continued, "that German
soldiers shot nnd killed a poor llttlo tot
In Belgium who raised a toy gun towards
them as they entered the vlllngo where
he lived. This act could hardly bo Justi
fied by paying that tho citizens had taken
up arms against the invaders."
Tho reports of tho hands or the wound
ed Allies being cut on by the Germans
are too numerous to relate. Theso
atrocities are Eald to hnvo been confirmed
beyond a reasonable ilouht."
PULITZER ESTATE
SHOWS INCREASE
OF TWO MILLION
Total Value of Late Pub
lisher's Holding Placed at
$18,637,545 in Report to
Surrogate.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23. The report of
tho rcapptalsnl of the estate of Joseph
Pulitzer, ordered by Surrogate Cohalan,
wins submitted yesterday to tho Surro
gate's Court by Transfer Tax Appraiser
Josoph I. Berry.
The icport shows that the gross
valuation of the estate has been ln
creased fiom $18,526,116 to ,20,355,983, and
Hie net from $H,SI3,ISI to J1S.637.M5, a net
Increase or $I,?94,U5I. The estimated
amount or the total tax Is $336,000. Before
the first appraisal $410,000 was paid Into
the State Treasury In order to take ad
vantage of the 6 per cent, rebato, so there
will be a refund of npproxtmotely $75,000.
In order to get nt the actual value of
the Associated Press franchises held by
tho Press Publishing Company (tho Now
York World) and the Pulitzer Publishing
Company (tho St. l.ouls Post-Dispatch),
nnd to estimate the good will of these two
newspapers, owned by Mr. Pulitzer, much
testimony was taken.
Aftei showing that there had been no
change In tho nppralsal of the real
estate fixed 111 the original report nt
$3,278,000, Mr. Retry placed the valuo of
4990 shares of tho Press Publishing Com
pany stock at $3,267,CS1, or $654.73 a Bhore,
and tho alue of 9161 Bharcs of tho
Pulitzer Publishing Company stock at
J2.077.262, or $292,15 a share. In thus ap
praising the stock, Mr. Berry states, he
has added to the app'ralscd value of the
corporation's tangible property a "good
will'' value consisting of the value of
the Associated Press memberships,
$4S0,000, nnd all other elements of good
will. In the original report the franchises
were not valued as such.
The appraisal Is arrived nt In part by
taking the average annunl earnings for
four years preceding Mr. Pulitzer's death
ns a basts for capitalization
One hundred nnd twenty thousand dol
lars Is allowed as an expenditure for
bonuses to employes. Tho appraiser also
considered the restrictions upon the salo
of the stock of tho Press Publishing Com
pany Inserted by the decedent In his will.
In appraising the value of the Press
Publishing Company tho average an
nual net earnings are set nt $541T!0.
These deductions nre nllowed: Slvty per
cent, of Increase In the cost ot white,
paper, $210,000: allowance for decedent's
services, $100,000; 6 per cent, on capital
Invested, $121,350, and fi per cent, on value
of Associated Press fianchlse, $23,S00. The
total reductions nre thus $460,150, and the
average net earnings as a basis for 10
per cent, capitalization1, $91,1S0.
The good-will, originally appraised at
$1,000,000, Is brought down to $311,502. The
appraised value of assets over liabilities
is $2,022,514, as In the original report. This
Includes two Associated Press bonds u
$1000 par value, and makes tho total
value $3,307,671 gross and $3,267,031 net.
Tho appraiser stntcs that tho average
annual net earnings of the Pulitzer Pub
lishing Company for four years weie
$40S,45H The uverage net earnings, less
deductions, nro $196,411,
Under the new appraisal the total per
sonal property Is valued at $17,077,933.
This with tlio real estate, valued at
$3,273,000, makes the total $20,355,935 gross.

MARCONI TO TEST
CENSORSHIP ORDER
IN FEDERAL COURTS
Company Plans Injunction
Against Navy Department
Seizure of Siasconset Sta
tion, Which Sent Message
to Belligerent.
WASHINGTON, Sept. SS.-Secretary of
the Navy Daniels today faced an In
Junction Bult from tho .Marconi Wireless
-leiegrapu company to test the naval .1
wireless censorship. Olllclals believed a '
test suit In the Federal courts of author- J
Ity to invoke wireless censorship was in-
evltable. They were also confident that ;
tho result would bo favorable to th 1
Government. -i
Secretary Daniels ultimatum to the i
Marconi Company, with a threat of selz-
ure of Its Siasconset, Mass., high-power U
transatlantic station, expired today. Fall. '
Ing to recelvo an explanation demanded 'i
from President John W. Griggs, former
United States Attorney General, of trann- 4
mission through tho station of an alleged i
partisan message ten days ngo to th
British cruiser Suffolk for provisions, Mr. i
Daniels today planned an order of sell.
ure by, navy wireless officers, possibly ''
reinforced by marines, of the Massachu- '
setts plant.
Whether tho Marconi company wouia ,'
anticipate tho Belzuro ordor by filing an
Injunction suit and provent closing of
tho station, pending hearing on an ap- '
plication for a temporary restraining l
order, was the technical legal doubt in 3
the situation today. It was also un. 'J
determined whether the suit would be ",
brought hero, or in tho Now York or 'i
Massachusetts Federal courts." '
Before taking final action today, the
Secretary conferred with Attorney Gen- ,'
eral Gregory and State Department om.
clals regarding a request by the Marconi
company to suspend nctlon until the legal '
papers can bo filed for tho court test.
Tho case of the Government rests upon
tho contention that, during the war, this 1
Is a "time of public peril," when th
President as commander-in-chief of the j
army and navy, may Issuo and enforci -'
such neutrality regulations as he sees I
fit. That of the Jlarconl company is that
there Is complete absence of law giving
the navy censorship authority. It also
denies that the message to the cruiser
Suffolk violated neutrality
NEW YORK, Sept. 23. Tho Marconi
Company today announced It Is preparing
papers for a suit In the Federal courts to
determlno by judicial decision tho contro
versy between the Navy Department and
tho Marconi Company over tho Slascon
sctt station.
In a statement Issued today, the Mar
coni Company contended that It has In
no way attempted to evade the neutrality
laws. The statement. In explaining the
controversy, says:
"The message from the British cruiser
Suffolk, so much criticised by the Navy
Department, was one addresses to a pri
vate person In New York asking that
fresh beef, potatoes and newspapers be
sent to tho Suffolk on the high seas. Thl3
would bo no more a violation of neutral
ity than would tho hlpment of guns,
ammunition, powder, flour nnd wheat to
any of tho countries at war."
The Marconi Company emphasized the
fact that It Is "an American corporation
and that for the Navy Department to
hamper Its commercial business Is to deny
Americans of their constitutional rights."
