NEW TORK, Nov. 4.
Nowhere, either In Ungland, Franca or
Utwwtahy. Is there the slightest evidence yet
f art approachlnr end to the war. In no
eewitry la there any Indication that the
struggle can be terminated, within the next
two year. There are Innumerable Indica
tions that the end Is much farther off. Lord
Jforlhcllffe, who, more often probably than
any other man, has correctly forecast the
war's developments, Is now urging the
British to make no calculations based upon
pea within fho years.
Although hushing their offensive on the
SwTirrie with great vigor, the British land
forces will not hare attained full fighting
strength before next summer, Tho Idea
current In Oermany that Prance Is too
nearly exhausted for further dangerous
offensive Is unwarranted optimism. The
actual figures of the Homme drive, where
the French (though only .called on to pro
tect the right wlhr of the British offensive
force) have actually taken more ground
and more prisoners than the llrttlsh, Is
Indicative of what tho French have In re
serve. So also thb new thrust at Verdun.
On the other hand, the Idea current In
tho Allied countries that Oermany sees
either defeat or exhaustion ns a near men
ace Is qUIte without Justification.
annMANr wants trace
Oermany wants pence admittedly wants
It badly. The. French and Urltlsh public
has misunderstood and misconstrued this.
The fact Is that Germany wants peace
NOW, not because she believes herself de
feated, but because she thinks she Is nearer
a Military victory than sha or ntly of the
belligerents will again come. Hermans ad
mit that they aro surfeited with war, but
Insist that France and Russia are equally
ao. They say that at tho present rate of
the Somme advance. In tlmo and casual
ties, Hngland's allies will bo bankrupt be
fore "the great push" can reach the Hhlne.
Germans rldlcuto the Idea that any offensive
can penetrate the Rhine defenses.
PARIS AND BERLIN
Tho last eighteen months have worked
great changes In the belligerent capitals.
Paris changed least during the Interval
'Is brighter, gayer and a shade nearer her
normal, even though the war Is still the
. all-eno-rossini- Idea. Berlin has became ttl-
Sf most somber. A rather noisy and exag
gerated confidence has given place to a
.determination truly grim. The food situa
tion, it not working the havoo with
stomachs that the Allies would like to be
lieve. Is having Its effect on nerves. The
difficulty Is not so much scarcity of food as
soaring of prices and monotony of diet.
Kverywhcre the question Is asked "when Is
"peace ComlngT" but nowhere Is there evi
dence of fear or voiced dissatisfaction with
.Government or army.
When peace Is talked of by the average
Ofrmr.n It Is a peace with full honor to
Oerntilny. It Is a peace creditable to the
Germany that has conquered Ilelglum, Po
land, Serbia and tho richest districts of
Rerthern France ; the Germany which Is
overrunning RUmnnla and which even In a
war or attrition Is stilt adding to Its cap
tured territory. The peace openly striven
for tiy Germany ts a far different thing
(Invdlvlng as It does a restoration of the
status qtio ante ns the limit of concessions)
froln the, only peace evor mentioned In
Paris or London a peace to be dictated
to Germany.
LONDON BARS PEACH TOPIC
Ilut It Is London that has undergone the
gsfcatest transformation. In the fall of
JH the Kngtlihman was talking glibly
of "business ns usual." Last spring he
was rather bored because tho war would
probably drag over Into 1918, nnd was
ehajlng under the upset of business routine.
V Today there la no business and no routine
in England except the business and routine
of making war Peace as n topic of con-
.. veratttlon Is almost taboo. Mare men, moro
Mtlnltlons, more money, Itelease the ellgl
M for military service; perfect tho or
ganisation' behind the battle line, and keep
Om hands of the politicians off General Sir
DatMtlas Halgt Theise are the sole topics
af the moment.
Involved In the situations developed In
Wgand and Germany are two powerful
factors which combined seemed to blight
ail possibilities of an early peace. Neither
at, these factors is fully understood by the
yaople of tho opposing nation. Only a few
at the leaders have sensed them. These
faefcur are, first, England's determination
' to fight Until the Allies can dictate a peace
wiilcil will not only eliminate the menace
af German militarism, but which will also
' atlsnlnate the metmes of German oomtner-
- atallftmt and. secondly, Germany's deter-
tWnatlon and apparent ability to maintain
s iMocessful dtfenalve Indefinitely mean-
wkHe hoping td alienate one or tnbre bf the
Allies or to see one or more bf them break
' wider the military or financial strain.
GERMANY'S ATTITUDE
Oermany will consider no peace now at
any terms the Allies would even mention,
tocatise what the Allies want now Is not
peace, but Get-many broken. It wl take
yaara of mora severe punishment than has
fat been Inflicted by the Allies before any
rich Peace C4n be forced upon Oermany,
Oa lh other hand, Germany's only pos
albty ahthce bf a peaci on terms evert ap
yiapMilrlg those with which she Is nbw
aagdlng depends upon her ability td hold
tsar fcncmiM at bay until financial ruin
forces jv compromise. Neither condition

Senator Penrose returned from New
York today to remain In Philadelphia Until
after election. In An Interview ho said
Hughes would nln next Tuesday both n
popular majority and a substantial ma
porlty In tho electoral college.
Ho was asked about the doubtful States,
and said the Republicans were certain to
win In those so-called, naming New Tork,
Illinois, Ohio, Indiana and New Jersey.
The President's home State, he said, wasn't
eten doubtful i It wns certain to go Re
publican, He said:
"For the last two weeks Mr. Hughes hns
been steadily gaining In strength, although
he has had the lead throughout the ram
palgn since tho nominations were made and
he hns nccr lost It
"Tho gain, hoWeer. recently has been
quite marked, particularly In the States
whero apparently weak places existed up
until n recent period.
"The reports up until today Indicated that
Hughes nlll win by n majority of tho
popular ote and, of course, by a majority
In the electoral college.
IIOUSI3 REPUBLICAN. IIOPIJ FOR
SKNATK
"His election will necessarily, carry with
It tho House of Representatives by a sub
stantial majority. The majority of six
teen Democrats has to be ovcrcomo In the
Senate, but If JJjo Republicans do not loio
any State now rtpresented by a Republi
can the Republicans will come very near
hating n majority In tho Senate.
"Wo hope to elect Republican Henntors
In Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Nebraska,
Montana, Nevada and Arizona.
"The people are awakening to the dis
astrous results which are likely to follow
If tho Incompetent Wilson Administration
hi continued for another four yenrs. Wo
are likely to have a difficult enough situa
tion In any eent with tho cloto of the
war In KUrope. Under n Wilson Admin
istration conditions would be infinitely
woroo, with no hope of recovery With
Hughes nnd the able men who would sur
round him, tho crisis would be met In n
competent manner, nnd, although wo might
pass through n bad period, every ono would
feel contldent of an ultimate recovery.

"After tho htx months of depression which
was proper and natural In the campaign
tho peoplo aro awnkenlng to a realization
of this fact nnd will record a verdict next
Tuesday In favor of safety and certainty,
nnd wilt vote for Hughes ami the whole
Republican ticket
"Tho campaign has been peculiar lecnU30
of tho fact that the country Is enjoying an
artificial prosperity, and men are fully cm
ployed day and night, nnd the war alBo
has distracted and absorbed public atten
tion. Consequently, thero has not been the
same apparent evidence of interest In the
campaign as Is Usual.
"The people, however, have made Up their
minds and nil canvasses show tho drift to
tho Republican party,"
"DOUBTFUL" STATES SAFH
Discussing the so-called doubtful States,
he said:
"New Jersey ts not a doubtful State. It
Is as certain to go Republican ns Is Penn&l
van I a. No one can be found who wilt inako
any other prediction but that Hughes will
carry New York. Kvcn the Democrats In
that State admit this In private conversa
tion, Illinois, likewise has always 'been
considered as sure for Hughes, and 1 havo
no Information to cause me to change my
opinion as to the result In that State. In
diana has one of tho best organizations In
the country nnd It has made un effective
fight. Republicans nro fu'ly prepared nnd
expect a successful outcome,
"It Is true that disquieting reports were
received from Ohio for u time. I am con
fident, however, that those reports were due
largely to superficial conditions. Funda
mentally the State Is nil right, nnd will
voto for Hughes on Tuesday next.
"As far ob majorities go In tho several
States referred to, I am confident that they
will be larger on election day than nny
predictions made this week, 1 believe that
all of these States will be carried by safe
majorities for Hughes and Fairbanks.
"Hughes's majority In Pennsylvania will
be at least 250,000, nnd may bo considerably
over that. .All reports from Pennsylvania
are excellent."

CRACKSMEN TAP SAFE OF $897
Enter Newmarket Street Home, Take
Receptacle to Rear nnd Drill It.
One Suspect Arrestd
Cracksmen entered the home of Abraham
Rosenfeld, 962 New Market street, early to
day, and after dragging a small safe to a
shed In the rear of the house, drilled It and
stole cash and Jewelry valued at 1897.
Members of the Rosenfeld family, asleep
upstairs, failed to hear the Intruders and
the robbery was not detected until about
t o'clock.
The Front nnd Master streets police sta
tion was notified and District Detectives
Hiene and Agnew arrested Harry Miller,
thirty-seven years old, of Dig New Market
street, as a suspect. According to the
police. Miller Is out. on f40n ball, having
been arrested a few weeks ago on a charge
of stealing groceries. The cracksmen, the
police believe, are members of the same
band that cracked the safe of John Keller-
man, 912 New Market street, three months
ago. They did not uso explosives, but
drilled three holes In the safe door and
pulled the combination.
Miller waa arraigned before Magistrate
Yates and held under 1800 ball for a further
hearing, Rosenfeld testified that the pris
oner had "threatened to get me thb same
as he got Ketltrman" and had offered him

to another Jammed audience at National
Theater Roosevelt fairly outdid himself
In choice of bitter Invective which he hurled
against the President They surpassed In

Chester County Leader d

Cnpitol Grnft Connection
T. Larry Eyre, Chester County's nepub.
llcan leader, Is using newspaper advertli.
Ing to ward off William H Berry's attack
upon him In connection wltn his fight to be
elected to the State Benato over the Wash
lngton Party-Democrstlo nominee, Johi
R, Thomas, of Whltford, Pa. ,
Mr Berry, the Collector of ths Port of
Philadelphia, who was Stale Treasurer at
tho time the Capltot graft scandal was
exposed, has been making speeches calling
Mr. Eyre the 'nan higher up" In that graft,
and quoting the late John II. Sanderson,
one of tho convicted grafters, as his In
formant. He says Sanderson made a con
fession accusing yre.
All Chester County newspapers carried
this advertisement, signed by Mr. Eyre:
To the people of Chester County:
I have been falsely, willfully,, de
signedly and mhllclousty slandered by
William II. Berry, of Delaware County.
I want to asy, with all tha power that
I possess, that I was never directly br
Indirectly concerned or connected with
the furnishing of the State Capitol In
nny way, nor did I ever profit to tha
extent of one penny through the fur
nishing of the said building.
This subject has been Injected Into
this i campaign by one outside of tha
county for the purpose of directing tha
public mind from tho real Issues of tha
campaign. I said. In a public address
nt West Orove last evening, that after
Tuesday next, whether I was elected, to
the Senate of Pennsylvania or whether
I was defeated for said office. I would
prove to the people of Chests- County
that these statement! were false In
every particular. I now repeat my
iromlse, through the public press, to
every cltlten of Chester County, that
my name shall be vindicated In this
connection.
Mr. Berry rests on his speeches and saya
ho will not amplify his charges by further
Interviews. "I have said enough to serya
notice on Eye and any others connected
with the Capitol steal that they must not
run Tor office In this State," he said.
Tho fusion backers In Chester CoUnly
reply verbally to Eyre's advertisement by
saying If he means what he says he will
suo Mr. Berry for libel and make him prove
his nccusatlons.
John J. Oheen, Progressive leader, put
it thus:
"Larry can get at the root of this matter
In a minute. Let him havo Berry arrested
and make Berry prove In court everything
that he has said."
