Special to The Telegraph
Oyster Boy, N. Y., Aug. 21.—Colonel
Roosevelt returned to Sagamore Hill
from his New England trip this even
ing realizing full well that a crisis is at
hand in the Progressive party of the

thing about it.
William Grant Brown, one of the
conferees on Wednesday, said yester
day that it was the consensus of
opinion at the meeting that Hinman
could not he supported for Governor
by the party because he had made it
clear that he had no love for Pro
gressives or their principles. It was a
matter of principle with them, he said,
and not of patronage. They felt it
would be a distinct setback for the
party to nominate him when he had
declared that he would not campaign
for himself or his associates on the
Progressive ticket and that he is and
shall continue to be a Republican even
if not nominated in the primaries of
that party.

POST OFFICE PLANS
Exterior Will Not Be Finished Be
fore Next Summer, Says
Builder
While katydids are singing on coun
try roads a meaningful song which
says to ears that can listen there are
only six more weeks till frost, W. Low
rie, superintendent of construction,
who is bossing the Post Office alter
ation Job for Contractors J. & E. A.
Pennock, of Philadelphia, is humming
a tune in another key which winds up
with the refrain:
"Are we gona get the plans, before
the frost gits us?"
Superintendent Lowrie said yester
day that work had now progressed
about as far as it could. There is
scarcely anything to do except potter
ing about a bit on the inside until the
revised plans arrive. Officially the
contractors don't know yet that the
new appropriation has been made and
that two more stories are to be built,
one on each wing. Until the arrival
of the plans from Washington noth
ing can be done. Supposing that the
plans should arrive before Septem
ber 1, it will be about mid-September
before a full force could be got to
work on the building, and that woflld
leave about a month and a half or
less of building weather.
Superintendent Lowrie is in hopes
that he can finish enough of the ex
terior of the building to permit the
work to go forward on the interior
leaving the exterior to be completed
next spring. In other words, it is
hoped that the building can be got into
such shape as to afford an enclosed
space so that inside construction can
go on. but unless the plans arrive soon
even that will he hopeless, and It will
be far Into the fall of 1915, perhaps,
before the building stands ready.
At present there is a great square
hole In the wall on the Locust street
side. Seven men are at work. "We
should have 107," said Superintendent
Lowrie. The steel structural work for
the wing to face on Locust street is
in place and also the brick founda
tions on that side, as well as the boiler
which will heat the building. But
"Are we gona get the plans before
the frost gits us?"
Gibboney Protesting
Against Liquor Tax
special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, Aug. 21.—"The de
liberate creation of drunkards" Is In
volved in the reported plans of the
national government to overcome the
expected revenue shortage resulting
from the European war by an increase i
in the tax on alcoholic liquors, ac
cording to a letter protesting against'
such legislation sent to President Wil
son yesterday by D. Clarence Gib
boney, president of the Law and Or
der Society of Philadelphia.
In raising the liquor taxes, accord
ing to this letter, the government vir
tually says to the liquor dealer: "We
need more money, and we are going
to get it from you. You must get it
out of your business. Sell all the
liquor you can. Create all the drunk
ards you can, but get the cash." It is
simply a matter, Mr. Gibboney savs,
of financing the national debt by
"making widows, orphans, imbeciles
and Insane."

Senator Sproul Under
Arrest in Germany
Special to The Telegraph
Chester, Pa., Aug. 21.—1n a letter
received here to-day from State Sen
ator William C. Sproul, he gives an ac
count of the arrest of himself and
Charles R. Long, of the Chester
Times, while traveling through the
war zone. He writes:
"Here we are, apparently safe in
Amsterdam, and feel as happy as a
storm-tossed ship after it reaches a
port of safety. Our experience getting
out of Germany has been a most
thrilling and exciting one. The Hol
land-American Line, so far as we can
learn, is the only one sailing, and they
are filled up for the ship sailing to
morrow. August 8.
"We had a tough trip in reaching
Holland, and our inconvenience was
great and tiring; hut, on the whole,
perhaps, we have suffered less than
other American tourists. In Frank
fort we were taken before a big Ger
man officer, who, after questioning us,
seemed satisfied and turned us over to
the municipal police. After an ex
amination we were permitted to take
a porter and find our baggage, which
wos located on the station platform.
"At Neiderlahnstein we were again
placed under arrest and taken before
the military post. I presume they
thought we were English spies, for
war had been declared on England by
Germany. In Cologne we were ap
proached by an officer, who asked for
our papers. He advised us not to
talk English on the street and stay in
our hotel until we left."
Americans Are Well
Treated in Germany
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 21, 1.20 P. M.—Fran
klin Martin of Chicago who left here
a week ago for Munich to bring out
his niece Miss Stone, also of Chicago
returned to London this morning.
His trip was successful for Miss
Stone is with him. Dr. Martin tells a
story full of interesting experiences on
the continent.
"Judging from my trip and the ex
periences of Miss Stone in Munich
Americans are as safe in Germany as
in Chicago or New Tork. We did not
parade the American flag because we
knew that many persons were seeking
the protection of the Stars and Stripes
who were not entitled to it.
'lt is impossible to make the trip
we did without being profoundly Im
pressed with the thoughtness of the
preparations Germany i 3 making for
every contingency that can arise on
land. The morals of the people was
inspiring. They expected to win, and
they have no thought of turning back
or of failure. There is no fome dif
ficulty in obtaining money in Germany,
if one has credit and can be lndenti
fied, than there is in London.
"In three weeks I have been an eye
witness to mobilization in France,
England and Holland. It is difficult
to say which preparations I admired
the most. They all have been so mag
nificant, yet so different. In Paris it
was "on to Berlin." In Germany it is
quietly assumed that it is "London
Paris, St. Petersburg.". In London
It is an impressive but omnious
silence."

Pope Requested Burial
in Crypt of St. Peters
By Associated Press
Rome, Aug. 20, 11.25 P. M. via
Paris, Aug. 21, 8.80 A. M.—Nothing Is
officially known about the late pope's
will but the Giornale D'ltalia says It is
drawn in humble, pious language. It
recommends his successor to grant his
sisters a pension of S6O monthly each,
but does not mention his niece,Gilda
Parolin. It also expresses the desire
that a pension of sl2 monthly be
granted to his valet.
The newspaper adds that the late
pontiff asks that his secretary Mon
signor Giovanni Bressan and Mon
signor Giuseppe Pescini be promoted
to canonrles.
The will contains a recommendation
that the burial be a modest one in
the crypt of St. Peters. It concludes
by invoking God's forgiveness for the
sins which the testator may have com
mitted, especially as pontiff.
The Tribuna says the Austrian am
bassador to Italy, before his resigna
tion because of til health, asked Pope
Pius X to bless Austria-Hungary and
the Austrian armies. The pontiff re
plied:
"I bless peace."

Petersburg dispatch to the Daily Mail
says the "Novoe Vremya" published
an account of the fighting at Eydtku
hen, East Prussia, by an eye witness
who says:
"The fighting here seemed to prove
that the German army's military,
qualities did not Justify its reputation,
the men in the skirmish lines huddled
together making excellent targets for
our fire.
"The German cavalry avoided ours,
retreating when the Russians advanc
ed for the charge. The German in
fantry, likewise, retired before our
bayonet charges."
The Novoe Vremya comments on
Japan's ultimatum as follows:
"The enemies of our enemies are
our friends. The cry of the yellow
peril is not Justified. The yellow race,
even as the white race, rises against
I German violence."

Behind Cavalry Screen
Thirty Miles in Length
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 21, 3.10 A. M.—"Brus
sels is filled with refugees from sur
rounding towns despite the large num
[ bers who left the city for Ghent and
Ostend during the past few days," says
the Daily Chronicle's Ghent corre
spondent.
"The plight of most of the refugees
1 is pitiable." the correspondent adds.
"Many are camped in the public
1 square whose homes in the suburbs
1 have been fired by the Prussians. The
roads leading into Brussels have been
' crowded all day with all manner of
conveyances, many drawn by dogs and
others by girls, women and aged
peasants.
"Most of these people have lost
everything. Few of them have any
money. The peasant is considered
lucky who succeeded in saving a single
horse or a cow. Most of them tell of
German barbarities, but It is evident
that a majority of these tales are
exaggerated.
Great Cavalry Screen
"Military men characterize the Ger
man force which is moving across Bel
gium as overwhelming, saying it con
sists of at least two or three army
corps. The advance of this huge force
is covered over the entire thirty-mile
front by a screen of cavalry. The Ger
mans had no difficulty in taking Lou
vain. which was virtually undefended.
"In the high wooded country be
tween Louvain and Brussels the Ger
mans found an excellent defensive po
sition. Having occupied Louvain, the
Germans pushed forward with great
celerity, the cavalry opening out in
fan-shaped formation, spreading across
the country.
"At one point they ran Into a strong
force of Belgian artillery, which pun
ished them severely. Later on In the
day a Belgian scouting force reached
Louvain and found it unoccupied, but
received imperative orders to tall hack
because of the danger of being out
flanked and annihilated."

"The battles around Muelhausen
have been particularly bloody for the
Germans, who, knowing the French
would spare as much as possible the
Alsatians and their property, hid
themselves in houses protected by the
Red Cross, whence they fired on the
French.
"The French directed a violent rifle
and artillery fire on their assailants,
causing veritable carnage. Every Ger
man leaving these houses was shot
down.
"A battery of six guns with their
caissons filled with ammunition was
captured from the Germans. They
were taken to Belfort to-day, where
crowds of curious townspeople gath
ered to see them. Eighteen other
guns captured to-day are expected to
