LETTER FROM GERMANY
TELLS OF SACRIFICES
(Cnpirlchlcl by fnilorwood lndcroo1. New York )
SILENT TRAGEDY OF THE BATTLEFIELDS OF THE MARNE
French soldiers arc buried where they fall. A cross marks their graves. The crosses are made of the handles of mess
tins and the dead man's cap and scarf are placed on top of the mound.
Wonnn Whose Husbind Fought in
Two Wars F.encly to Yield Tour Sons.
An example of the sa'-rHlces which the
Germans arc reported to be mak'njr In
order that their arms may be ultimately
victorious Is shown In a letter received
by Mrs. H. Hllhert. 3I.3 North Front
street.
The writer of the letter Mrs. Franz
nberhart. of Itelchenb-i h Germany. Is
the mother of the Philadelphia woman,
and her husband Is a cterin of two
German wars. She as In the letter to
her daughter that her father, who is
T9 years o'd. expects his four sons to
bo called for frvice at anv time and
has written to e-ich. of th.-m, urcins th'-m
to go unfrfHerlnsiy to the aid of thv
Fatherland.
When the letter arrived at the Hubert
home It was oionod und appeared as
though It had not been sealed. It Is
the belief of Mrs. Hllbert that her
mother did not senl the letter because
sho realized that it would be opened
and Its contents scrutinized by the mili
tary author.tles.
Following is th letter in part, which
na3 mailed on Septemb r 2:
"There are no uremics on German soli,
and the ent're 3erman army U In France
and on the border of nii"sia Ever d V
we receive memases of tho victories won
by tho German troops but we also hear
when our men are beaten.
"The peop'e !tand at the railroad sta
tion everv da w.i'tlns for the trains
to brinu In the prisoners and wounded.
This world war Is terrlb'e Many hjs
bands and sons arc separated from their
families perhaps Tou-ier. But there is
no erlng or sorrow, and the children
in the streets say that their fathers
will asaln return.
"I don't like to so Into the streets,
because you see younc: women who are
twitting the ret im of their husbands.
This recalls the dais In mv Itfe when
in the Prus!nn War of li"i and In the
Franco-Prussian .ir I was like tMem
and waited for Fi.ira to return. Your
brothers have not b.-en railed yet. but
they expect to be c ailed almost any
day. Father has written to each of
them, telllnu them to help their country
if necessary. He "-ais there Is no rea
son to be afraid dnce we whipped the
French In IW1 and will repeat in this
war. The French would rather he -ap-turcd
than shot, nnd we do n"t ox
ixict the war to ;ast aB long as the
Franco-Prussia war."

representatives in tills country.
I'. Wiutcr Roberts, trensurtr of the
Kplscopal Hoard nt Dostoti. wild hns been
actliiK for the American missionary soci
eties since the Turkish Government
unnouncid its withdrawn! of tho capitula
tions, vald that not only is all commu
nication with tho American schools In
Turkey broken, but that It has been
Impossible to forward much needed lunds
from this country during tho last ten
days.
After the war began and the various
missionary societies realized that they
could no longer send, money to their
workers In Turkey by tho usual channels
the Standard Oil otrrr'(l Its services and
undertook to transfer considerable sums
for the relief of American educational
nnd religious institutions In that country,
hut on Saturday thn Standard Oil re
ported to Mr. Itobetts that It had been
unnble for tho last weok to communicate
with Its representative at Constantinople,
nnd that It was Impossible to give relief.
The uneasiness which this situation
aroused has been Intensified when It
was reported through Rome that the
Ottoman Government, besides suppressing
tho capitulations, had determined to
abolish all foreign schools within the
empire. Dispatches received through
diplomatic sources from Home state that
the conditions In Constantinople nre most
serlouii.
Absolutely nothing Is known ns to the
welfare of foreign missionaries or col
leges In Turkey. It Is naturally sup
posed, however, that they are beginning
to feel the pinch of unusual conditions
nnd possibly to be in sorlous need ot
llnnnclnl help. Besides the big Ameri
can colleges in Turkey there are nearly
DUO smaller schools that arc conducted
by religious bodies
As an Indication of the fact thnt the
Armenians In this country nre fearful lest
trouble come to their relatives In Turkey
mnr.v of them have made application to
the Amerlcnn Hoard during tho last week
to have money transferred to Turkey. In
each ease, however, that money has had
to be refused with the explanation that
tho board has no means of sending It.
