Fight to Break German Militarism Will Be Long By Associated Press Paris, Aug. 23.—A difficult and prolonged struggle before the war is ended was prophesied by M. Vicani, Minister of Justice. In an address at Gueret, he said; "Although victory is certain, it will require hard and prolonged efforts to break Prussian militarism and prevent recurrence of its crimes." In an address before the general counsel of the Department of Aube, Blenvenu Martin, former minister of Justice satd: "The French will not submit to the peace of the German Emperor who boasted he would force his adversaries to accept peace on bended knees.

Five Allied Contingents Are Now Engaged in Entente Balkan Campaign By Associated Press Paris, Aug. 23.—A dispatch says the Italian contingent of troops landing at Salonikl is of really impor tant proportions, according to infor mation here. In addition the Temps in its review o fthe military situation aludes to the presence of Russian troops along the Vardur River which, if confirmed would make five allied contingents engaged in the entente campaign in the Balkans. The announcement of the landing of Italian troops at Salonikl is regarded here as deeply significant, indicating an important reinforcement of the al ready large army of the entente allies composed mainly of French, British and Serbian troops. The Italian move ment also is construed as showing that comprehensive political agreements have been arranged in advance, as hitherto it was understood Italy with held from participation in the Balkan situation out of consideration Jor Greek sensibilities over the predomi nance of their influence In the eastern Mediterranean. The participation of the Italians in the Balkan campaign also is consid ered another evidence of the interna tional spirit prevailing among the al lies and is compared to the sending of the Russian contingent to France. By this movement the allies are distri buting their effectives far beyond their own borders. Allies Lost 72 Warships Since Beginning of War; German Loss Twent-iUve Berlin, Aug. 22. via London, Aug. 23.—The German Admiralty issued to day a statement asserting that the losses of the British and French nav- I les in line of battleships and cruisers to A lgust 1 comprised 72 vessels with a total displacement of 496,050 tons.

FEAR THEY CAN HOLD MEN BUT LITTLE LONGER {Continued From First Page] formulate an answer on behalf of the roads to President Wilson's suggested plan for meeting demands of the union brotherhoods the substance of their conference with the President at the White House last night. It is under stood the purpose of that visit was to secure Mr. Wilson's specific ideas on how the railroads are to reimburse their treasuries for the many millions additional expenses which would arise out of acceding to the President's plan for an eight-hour wage basis. The attitude of the President on this subject was not disclosed, but the re port was considered significant as showing in what direction the railroad heads are turning in their efforts to reach a conclusion. The big committee of brotherhood representatives were impatient at the delay, but W. G. Lee, head of the trainmen's brotherhood, expressed tho belief that they would not be held here past to-morrow. A statement issued by the employes' commltteo charged the railtoads with inconsist ency in contending for arbitration, though refusing to arbitrate demands of employes on a number of minor roads not represented directly in the present negotiations, but said to be controlled by the larger lines. Louts W. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway and one of the strongest opponents of the eight-hour day, declared in a statement griven out to-day that many western roads in particular would have scant earnings next year and that many would bo forced Into receiverships by an eight hour wage basis.

WXKRISBURG BS69S TELEGR APH *»STeeLTon«^ BOROUGH NEEDS MORE PATROLMEN Businessmen Demancl Better Police Protection on Heels of Many Crimes An increase in the number of ser ious crimes occurring in the borough recently is causing a renewed clamor for more adequate police protection and prominent business man are frank in expressing their belief that Coun cil should at once take steps to meet the situation. Within the past few weeks there has been one murder and at least liclfa dozen minor shooting or cutting af frays, to say nothing of the many brawls and street fights which have ceased to cause much excitement. The police are frankly admitting that they are unable to give proper protection to the entire borough by simply pointing out that a force of the stze of Steelton's can't be expected to patrol the entire borough at anywhere near frequent intervals. In most towns the ratio of patrol men is one to every twelve or fifteen hundred of population. If this pro portion was followed out here the local police force would have at least a dozen patrolmen. It actually has four, which with a sergeant and chief complete the force. There is at present a resolution be fore Council directing the addition of two more officers. This measure was presented following presentation of a petition signed by practically every business man in North Front street, between Pine and Adams streets, de manding better protection. Just what action will be taken by Council, how ever, is a matter for conjecture. STEEI.TON SNAP SHOTS Opens Xcw Restaurant. D.
