'If there are two countries that should

mt being attacked, fought against her
cousins on the side of the Slav, the Arab
and the yellow man."
So Bpoke Ktlc Krell, vice president of
the Otto Gas Lnglne Works, a German
concern which maintains a branch In
Philadelphia at 33d and Walnut streets,
today. Mr. Krell is - Ueuna'i, and, 'ikt
others of his co uitr.'.Tiin In the I'nlted
States, resents highly what he Utms tnu
unjust and ho.vtllo attitude towaru Ger
many. WAR WAS INEVITABLE.
Sreaklng further, Mr. Krell said:
"Tho whole of Europe, not only Ger
many, as the English press woul dhave us
believe, has been suffering for many
years from militarism, and tho arma
ments on all sides have become so costly
and burdensome to the people that a
war was not only lncvltao' hut almost
necessary, In order to elcir tnu atmos
phere and to prepare tho way lor a
lasting peace.
"Franco has made the Idea of ro
venge its national fetish tlnce 1670, and
Its unnatural friendship with Russia
has had only one object, namely, to
get even with Germany. France has
tpent as much money as Germany to
j,et Its army and navy ready and It
has loaned several thousand million
dollars to Russia to build up the Rus
sian army navy and fortresses.
"Russia has always dreamed of an
lco-free port and she Is bound lo se
cure this sooner or later, probably later,
when It will bo nec-rsary for England
to light the Russian bear Russia is
lesponslhlo for most of tho upheavals
In the Balkans, and If It had not been
for her and her Intrigues Servla would
never have dared to work secretly
against Austria-Hungary, as she haB
done for several years.
"England has been suffering for years
from hysterics and has believed that
Cennany was building Its navy for the
solo purpose of Invading England, and.
In consequence, she has spent untold
millions to build up a 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-tau 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
havo any more love for the English than
they have for the Germans, the French
or the Americans, and their motto is 'Asia
for the Asiatics.'
"A sufficient answer to England's sane
tlmonlous Indignation nhout the violation
of Belgian territory is a reference to ber
theft of Gibraltar, her wanton aggression
nnd annexation of the Boer Republics,
her occupation nnd retention of Egypt,
the subjugation of Persia, etc.
"History will find that this war was
forced on Germany, and If the German
peoplo did not believe this wo would not
find them fighting like 'one man' nnd mak
ing sacrifice which only a people can make
that believes In the light of Its cause.
Germany, with her 70,000,000 people, Is
no longer an ngrlcultu.nl country. She
Is ibsolutcly dependent on her Indus
tries, nnd as only about 50 per cent, of
her manufactures can bo consumed In
Germany, she must export. If the mntkets
of the world are closed to her she must
either starve at home or let her people
emigrate.
"Every Gorman feels that he Is fight
ing for the existence of his counliy, and
that the greatest danger threatens from
Russia. If tho Allies win, Russia will
be supremo In continental Europe, and
then 'good-by' to European civilization.
The English believe that In case of vic
tory they could stay the hands of Rus
sia, but they will llnd that their power
reaches Just about ns far as the can
nons on their ships, nnd If England
should try to dictate to Russia she will
simply be laughed at."

NEW YORK, Sept. 23. The report of
tho nnpprnlsal of the cslato of Joseph
Pulitzer, ordered by Hurrogato Colmlan,
wns submitted yesterday to the Surro
gate's Court by Transfer Tax Appraiser
Joseph I. Berry.
Tho report shows that tho gross
valuation of tho estato has been In
creased from $18,526,116 to $20,355,085, and
the net fiom $16,8I3,ISI to $18,037,515, a net
Increase of $1,791,061. The cstlmnted
amount of tho total tax Is $335,000. Before
tho first nppralsal $110,000 was paid Into
tho Stato Treasury In order to take ad
vantage of thev6 pci cent, rebate, so there
will be a refund of approximately $75,000.
In order to get nt the actual value of
tho Associated Press franchises held by
tho Press Publishing Company (the Now
York World) nnd the Pulitzer Publishing
Company (the St. Louis Post-Dispatch),
and to cstlmato the good will of these two
newspapers, owned by Mr. Pulitzer, much
testimony was taken.
After showing that there had been no
change In tho appraisal of tho real

$1,278,000, Mr. Berry placed tho value of
4S30 shares of the Press Publishing Com
pany stock nt $3,267,651, or $6:11.73 a share,
and tho valtio of 9161 shares of tho
Pulitzer Publishing Company stock nt

praising the stock, Mr. Berry Rtatcs, ho
has added to the appraised value of the
corporation's tangible property a "good
will" vnlue consisting of the value of
tho Associated Press memberships,
$l;0,000, nnd all other elements of good
will. In the original report the franchises
wero not valued ns such,
The appraisal Is arrived at In part by
taking tho average annual earnings for
four years preceding MrV Pulitzer's death
as a bnsls for capitalization
One hundred and twenty thousand dol

some English had taken rcfugo In the
house nnd fired upon It. The American
ran Into the street and shouted to tho
soldiers, 'Surely you would not shoot a
helpless woman nnd children.' At this
moment the old man appeared In tho
doorway to protest. He was shot dead.
Tho woman whom ho had been aiding
rushed to the soldiars saying. 'Ho has
been my saviour nnd Is nn old man. Do
not shoot him.' Rut her words wero
hardly out of her mouth when the man
fell to the ground.
"It Is a matter of common report
abroad," she continued, "that Gorman
soldiers shot nnd killed a poor little tot
In Belgium who raised n toy gun towards
them as they entered the village where
ho lived. This act could hardly be Justl
ted by saying that tho citizens had taken
up nrms against the Invaders."
The reports of the hands of the wound
ed Allies being cut off by the Germans
aro too numerous to relate. These
atrocities are raid to havo been confirmed
bejond a reasonable doubt."
