PEACE AND GUNS WILL BE TAKEN TO AID RUSSIA American Businessmen to Go With Material Aid and Take Armed Guard Along Wn.sliington. July 10. Entente governments, through their embas sies in Washington, are now fully advised of the views of the Wash ington administration as to the best means of carrying out President Wilson's pledge to "stand behind Russia." It is understood that a project is taking shape which it is hoped will counteract German influ ence and lead the people to rehabili tate themselves without exciting dis trust of the unselfish motives which lie behind it. While any official statement of the administration's policy still is withheld, there is reason to believe that the proposal to send American businessmen to Russia to carry ma terial aid to the people, with armed guards to insure the safety of the personnel and supplies from German aggression, is forming the basis of the negotiations now proceeding with unusual rapidity between Washing ton and the entente capitals. Only it has assumed a new phase through the injection of the idea to make the commission and armed guards inter national in composition, thus tending to disarm any suspicion on the part of the Russians that their country is to be exploited in the interests of a single power. Kntente Won to Mililor Means This measure is far short of the original desires of the entente gov ernment. which frankly favored the dispatch into Siberia and perhaps into European Russia through the Archangel or Kola route, of a Joint military expedition. But it is be lieved that in the absence of full American approval of this plan the entente powers have been brought to at least sanction the experiment of peaceful penetration and that nego tiations are now in progress to ar lange the details of this enterprise At any rate, the fact developed today that some action is imminent. |lt \GR\ \ISTRIA\S MEft Foon AT Rtll.W STATION By Assosiattd Press Pari*.

HAJRJRISBURG TELEGRAPH jCITY TO CELEBRATE FALL OF BASTILEr AT RESERVOIR PARK Prominent Speakers Will Address Big Gathering in Natural Auditorium at Reservoir in the Afternoon Harrisburg In announcing that It will next Sunday join in the world wide observance of the 129 th anni versary of the Fall of the Bastile again sets the pace for the cities of Pennsylvania. Since the beginning of the war the capital of the Key stone state has been foremost in its patriotic endeavors, and next Sun day's city-wide observance will be par with what has gone before. The j formal exercises in New York City ; are to be held in Madison Square , Garden; in Harrisburg In beautiful Reservoir Park, as well as in the scores of city churches. The Hastile for hundreds of years stooi". for the right of might. Orig inally only a pair of small towers erected in the so-called Dark Ages on the banks of the Seine, it received many additions until finally it be came a citadel of absolutism. It . stooci on the Faubourg St. Antoine. i which was lined with the palaces of | the rich and privileged class who de- • sired the protection of the Bastile j guns against possible onslaughts by ' the masses. It is described as hav- ! ing been a gloomy fabrlc-bastioned, i portholed and moated; and it was i the seat of military power, chang- i ing hands whenever a nw war lord ; arose. It was first a fortress, but finally became a prison where hun dreds were immured for daring to speak the truth. Within the for bidding walls were to be found the instruments of torture with which those voices were silenced which had been lifted against the royal will; and there were to be found, too. men experienced in the Inanipula tion of the rack, the thumb screws and the dreaded "boot." The Bas tile represented the whims of ty rants as opposed to the just decisions of the courts. Prisoners of state were thrown into its dungeons with out process of law. The only war rant for their detention was a lettre j de cachet, bearing the seal of the j -.overeign. Frequently It did not con-j tain the name of the prisoner. The caprices of royal mistresses, the i schemes of wily politicians, the petty j revenges of royal favorites who har- - bored pri\ate grudges, caused many j a man and many a woman to be lost to the world of the living. The mvsterious prisoner. "The Man With '.he Iron Mask." who dwelt for years in one of the tow ers; the infamous Balue. who suf fered in a cruel cage of his own in vention: the Duke de Nemours, con demned to the rack daily by the in- | human Louis XI; Cagliostro. cham- ( pion charlatan of Europe: the knaves who filched the diamond necklace which dußarry coveted, anfl the hundreds of victims of the craft of Richelieu and Mazarin were among those brought to hook. Prussian Intrigue The common people, in the Eight eenth century, had begun to pray for justice; and they struggled for the rights of man as against a dis- . solute and extravagant court. They j had been taxed almost to extinction, hut they were sustained by the great ] thinkers of the time. Teutonic in- i fluences at the court of Versailles | are declared to have resulted in the ■ refusal of their prayers. Louis XVI. weak, irresolute, was under the dom- , ination of his queen. Marie Antoin ette. a daughter of the House of Hapsburg. Paris and Versailles were honeycombed by Prussian intrigue. They were beset by Austrian adven turers. When it became evident that the people had the sympathy of the French army, the queen's in fluence and that of the courts of Vienna and Berlin brought German J mercenary troops into France. The old order believed that the popular will could be defeated by force of arms—just as the Kaiser of Ger many to-day believes the same thing. "On all highways. says Carlyle. "there hovered dust clouds, with the march of regiments, with the trail- i ing of cannon; foreign Pandours of fierce aspect, Salis-Samade. Ester- i hazy. Royal-AUemand. so many of i Ithem foreign, to the number of thir- j tv thousand, which fear can mag- ; nifv to fifty, all wending towaid Paris and Versailles —without drum music, without audible word of com mand." Such was this horde of long ago. "growling in harsh gutturals." which was posted at bridgeheads, and in , squares, ready to give the French- ; men whifts of grapeshot. "To arms! To arms!" cries , Camille Desmoulins. in the words of . that phrase which was to find its way | *nto the battle hymn of the French I Republic. "This night the Germans and the Swiss troops march to our i massacre: We have but one recourse, to defend ourselves!" Teuton soldiers charged the pro cession of protest. Prussian dragoons sought to hold the French Guard un- j der arrest in barracks; regiment aft- j er regiment of Boche hirelings were j aligned to the Field of Mars. All were of no avail in the storm which swept over Paris and on to the Bastile. which fell before the attack of the enraged people. Within a few months the crime-steeped pile had been demolished; and in its stead i stands a column upon which are re corded the deeds done on July 14, 17 89. The Walls Yield The walls of the Bastile yielded to the onslaughts of the wreckers, but the spirit which the Basti e repre sented was kept alive through the interference and by the wiles of the Central Powers —just as tne ideas of a dead past are being kept alive to day by these same powers. The King pretended to accept the new constitution, but he was still nndet Teutonic domination —under the spell of German Imperialism. When he tried to escape across the border to Germany a Prussian army officer arranged the details of his flight and obtained the passport for ♦he supposed German Baroness de SIOO.OO REWARD Corns. t'allouae*.

A German squadron of horse dashed twenty-four miles in a vain effort to rescue the King and Queen from the authori ties at the French town of Varennes nnd to bear them beyond the River Rhine. In a communication which he left at the Tuilleries, Louis XVI made it clear that he was on his way to array the forces of Haps burgs and llohenzollerns against his own country. Then came the reign of terror, and later the taking of Verdun by Prussian hordes, the march of these Huns through the fair district of Champagne, inflamed the mind of the public and brought on the excesses of the Commune and the execution of a King hnd Queen who were waiting in their palace to be succored by the enemies of France.
