Paris, Aug. 4.—To find a counter- | part for the scene of frenzied enthu- slasm in the French chamber today, When the state of war with Germany was lormally placed before the na- tion, one would have to go back to | that other August 4 a century and a qQuarter ago when the old regime gave its last gasp; when the aristocrats, the bishops, the priests made the sac- rifice of their privileges on the altar of the fatherland; when feudalism, the church and the third estate merged in one nation, with one hope, founded on a common basis, human liberty. i Party lines disappeared this after- noon.

Viviani then went on to tell of the assassination of the Francis Ferdinand and his consort to bring the authors of the tragedy to account, ending with the ultimatum to Servia, calling on the latter country to satisfy extremely harsh demands of the dual monarchy by July 26. He told how Servia signified her acceptance of the terms. “It was then,” he went on, “with Jjust astonishment that the Cabinets of Paris, St. Petersburg and London learned on July 26 that the Austrian minister in Belgrade, after an exami- nation of a few minutes, had de- clared the Servian reply inacceptable and broken off diplomatic relations be- tween Austria-Hungary and Servia. “This astonishment was aggravated by the fact that on Friday, July 24, the German ambassador came to the French ministry of foreign affairs and communicated a verbal note afirming that the Austro-Servian conflict must be localized without intervention on the part of the great powers, accom- panying this declaration with the statement that if this were not so we would have to look for ‘incalculable A similar step was taken by Germany in St. Petersburg and London. % Archduke | 'OPPOSITION FAILS 10 STOP EXTRA TAX Livcy Gy Mectng Appropriais $22.600 for Sireet Work. . After wheezing a bit and making several false starts, the machine op- posing the appropriation of approxi- mately $22,000 extra for street de- partment work, finally gave up the ghost and stopped dead at the city meeting last night. More interest was shown in meeting than for many months. A large representation of the com- mon council was present and it was evident that some of those who were interested in the subject had not al- lowed any grass to grow under their feet while rounding up their friends. People who never take any interest in city affajrs were there armed with an “aye” and it was whispered around that there was a gentleman of color concealed in the woodpile. Political Opposition Rumored. Late yesterday afternoon it be- came evident that there was to be some opposition and it was said that the UNDENIABLE FACTS CONCERNING HUNTSINGER'S.

The independence of Servia and the equilibrium in the Balkans, in- scribed in the treaty of Bucharest of ism, socialism and conservatism, was expressed in the one cry: “Il n'y a plus que des francais." (There are none now but French- men.) The message of President Poincdre to the nation, reciting the causes of the war and the reasons on which the French attitude is based, was inter- | rupted by wild outbursts of applause. The message, read by Premier Vi- vianl, was as follows: “France has just been the object of a brutal and premeditated aggres- sion which is an insolent defiance of the right of nations. Before a de- claration of war had been addressed to us, even before the German am- bassador had demanded his pass- ports, our ndtlonal territory has been invaded. it would come from quarters that were not friendly to Mayor George A. Quigley. While some of the op- position was accepted as bona. fide interest in the welfare of the city there was some, it is claimed, that was aroused through the desire to block any move that might reflect % e | credit on the Quigley administration iy and give it any political capital to use in the next campaign. . It was also sald that neither of the big politieal parties would show much opposition because such a move might be used against it on the stump when orators could point to the oppositon as horrible examples of predatory interests that would let the people starve in the streets.

At- tentive as well as pacific,c she had prepared herself, and our enemies will find the road barred by our vali- ant covering troops. “Our filne and courageous army, which has with it today the maternal thought of France, is there, full of ardor, to defend the honor of the flag and the soll of the fatherland. “The president of the republic, in- terpreter of the entire country, ex- presses to our troops on land and sea the admiration and the confidence of all France.” (This statement, which was ac- cepted as a recognition by the presi- dent that the expectation of internal division in France on Wwhich the Germans are known to have based great hope, in view of the recent so- clalist triumph, was vain, provoked a torrent of applause in the chamber. M. Viviani was forced to suspend the reading of the document for several minutes. He continued: “Closely united in one sentiment the French nation will persevere in the sangtroid which it has displayed since the beginning of the crisis and of which it has given a daily proof. “In the war which is opening, France will have on her side the right and peoples not less than individuals, cannot with impunity disdain the eter- nal moral strength of right. “She is ably seconded by Russia, her ally.” At these words the eyes of all the deputies were turned on M. Is- wolsky, the Russian ambassador, who sat in the diplomatic gallery, and cries of “Vive la Russie!’” resounded through the chamber. A similar out- burst, Wwith shouts of “Vive 1'Angle- terre!” greeted the words of . the president’s message: “8he is supported by friendship of England.” “And already,” were the closing words of the message, “from all points of the civilized world vows of sympathy are coming for France.

Viviani described the measures showing = that France had known of them from day to day #€nd that the French govern- ment was not enveloped in the dark- ness which played such havoc with France in 1870.

Other Wars Averted. After referring to the declaration France, M. Viviani continued: “The conquerors of 1870 have made | several attempts to repeat the blows they struck at us in that war. In 1875 it was through the efforts of the two powers With which we are now allied—England and Russia—that the war which was intended to complete the ruin of France wus prevented. Since that time the French republic by building up the national forces and concluding diplomatic engage- ments has succeeded in freeing her- self from the voke which Bismarck, even in time of peace, had placed on our neck. “It is this work of pacific repara- tion, .definitely sealed in 1904 ana 1907, that the German empire wants to destroy today by an audacious blow.” Recounting in detail the occasions on which France refrained from coming to blows with Germany in face of pro- vocation of incidents like that at Agadir and the pacinc attitude of Russia in the face of Austro-German intrigue in the Balkans Premier Vi- viani concluded: “France, unjustly provoked. has not desired war. She has done ev- erything to avert war. Since she has been driven to it France will defend herself against Germany ana against every power which, not hav- ing yet disclosed its intentions, takes the side of Germany in the struggle hetween the two countries.” COLLIER BROUGHT HOME.

He wag still in the sleep which overcame him on Sunday. acting mayor in the absence of Mayor Quigley, called the meeting to order and City Clerk A. L. Thompson read the call. He then read a resolution prepared by Corporation Counsel J. E. Cooper which called for the lay- ing of an extra tax of one-half mill the money to be used in street work. Alderman M. T. Kerwin moved that the resolution be adopted. Kilbourne *“From Missouri.” School Committeeman Edward O. Kilbourne stated that personally he was not opposed to the extra tax but would lfke an explanation of why it ‘was being laid. “This is an unusual procedure and I think we should have an explana- tion,” said Mr. Kilbourne. ‘“The streets were given due consideration by the board of public works Wwhen it was mapping out its plans at_ the béginning of the year. They were con- sidered by the board of finanve and taxation at that time and that hosrd appropriated as much money 1s It believed the city could afford to spend.” “Hard Times'—Ald. Jester. “In reply to Mr. Kilbourne,” said Alderman M. Irving Jester, “I would like to say that it is a well known fact that we are having hail times. The' factories are running on short time and the. appropriation of this money will give men who are out of work, or doing little work. a chance to augment their income The object is simply tc give work to the unem- ployed. Otherwise they might he thrown on the city’s hands and de. pend on the charity department for aid.” Thinks Factory Hands Incapable. “I don’t think factory hands are capable of working on the streets,” retorted Mr. Kilbourne. *“And I don't think they would do the work if it was there for them to do. I under- stand about 100 applications for work have been received. I do not consid- er that a large number or more than what the average administration has to contend with. In the time of May- or Ambrose Beatty there were 500 ap- plications for jobs. I am opposed to the proposition but I think it would establish a bad precedent.” “Ayes” Bat For 1.000, Acting Mayor Christ called for a vote on the resolution and the ‘“‘ayes"” carried everything before them. There were a few ‘‘noes” and they shouted lustily but were forced to capitulate before superior numbers. Water Commissioner W. B. Ross- berg made a motion to adjourn and a big crowd went out on the side- walk where they gave vent to their opinions nltho\_lgh they sald nothing during the meeting.

BOMB DROPPING EXPLOITS. English Refugee Describes Method | Used By Zeppelin Atrships, London, Aug. 27., 12:38 p. m.— The method used by Zeppelin air- ships in dropping bombs has been described as follows by an English refugee who has just arrived here from Belgium. The dirigible hovers over its ob- Jective at a sufficient altitude to keep out of the range ¢f the enemy’s guns. At the same time it lowers a steel cage attached to a steel wire rope 2,000 or 3,000 feet long. This cage is divided into compartments, and it carries one man whose duty it is to | throw down the bombs. The cage is sufficiently strong to make rifle fire | against it ineffective, and because of | its smallness and the fact that it is kept constantly in motion it is very difficult for heavy guns to hit it/ LAUDS EXCELLENCE OF RUSSIAN ARMY Czar’'s Troops Learned Lesson in Japanese Campaign—20,- 006,000 Men Available for Service Important London, Aug. 27, 4:45 a. m.—A despatch to the Post from St. Peters- burg, commen's on the excellence of the Russian army and thes inex- haustible supply of men to draw upon.
