PROTEST | Hotel Washington Man Goiag to Su. perior Court—Clergy Objects to Sanderson. Onceé again James R. Halloran, proprietor of the Hotel Washington, has appealed to the superior court from the decigion of the county com- missioners in refusing to grant him a liquor license at his hotel. The last time Mr. Halloran was turned down he appealed to the higher court but the commissjoners’ decision was up- held. His petition for a license was denied by the commissioners recently on the ground that the place is un “suitable. ¥ A hearing will be granted at 11 o’clock Friday morping on the appli- cation of George Sanderson for a sa- loon license at 294 South Main street. Numerous petitions remonstrating | against the granting of the license have been filed. Rev. Patrick Daly and Rev. J. Leo Sullivan of St. Jo- seph’s parish have protested on the grounds that there are already three | saloons in the vicinity of ‘the church and parochial school and any more would be a distinct detriment to the neighborhool. Another remonstrance is signed by Louis Wallin of 243 South Main street who declares that this is a resi- dential section and that as there are already three saloons there, there is no need for any more and an addi- tional one would injure the com- munity. DR, TRAVIS GOING 70 AID THE SERBS Woman Phy&c{an to Brave Hor- rors of War and Disease Inspired by Mme, Mabel Groutitch, who recently made a tour of ‘the | United States, Dr. Catherine Travis, one of New Britain's three women physicians, will give up her practice here in a few days to go to Nish, Ser- bia, to take up work at the babies’ hospital, which will be established soon. | She will be accompanied by Dr. Louisa Taylor Jones. Dr. Travis will sail next Monday on | the Greek liner, King Constantin, from New York, and will go to Sa- lonica, from which point she will travel to Nish by rail. 8he will not arrive until August. Dr. Travis is a graduate of McGill university, Mont, real, Canada, and of Johns Hopkins | university, Baltimore, Md. She en- Joys a large and lucrative practice in | this city &nd her self-sacrifice in leav- | ing friends and home to minister in a strange land has won her hundreds of new admirers. Dr. Travis has always been a plucky women and it is not sur- prising that she has decided to brave ‘the terrors of a war-stricken country on an errand of merey. Mme, Groutitch is thé wife of the under secretary for foreign affairs in Serbia and has made a successful trip | to this country enlisting the sympathy | and ald of Yankee citizens to the i cause of the sick and wounded in her native land. Mme. Groutitch and Dr. Travis recently had ‘a conference in Hartford at which the doctor offered her services. Word has now arrived ! | that a grateful Serbia will welcome ! the New Britain woman. Disease stalks almost unhampered | in 8erbia. Forty per cent of the Seér- bian physicians have ‘fallen victims to i dread typhus, while the remainder are | at the battle front. Thé prevalence | of disease gives an idea of the bravery of Dr. Travis. Typhus has made greater inroads on Serbia’s popula- tion than Austrian and German shrap- nel, vet Dr. Travis is ready to sacrifice everything, even life itself, to aid in the great, Christian cause of minister- ing to the afflicted. STEAMER.CUT IN TWO. Choctaw Rammed in Lake Huron During Fog—Crew Saved. Port Huron, Mich., July 13.—Cap- tain Charles Fox and crew of the steamer Choctaw, of the Cleveland Cliffs Iron company which, ladén with coal up-bound, was cut in two off Preque Isle in Lake Huron, during a : heavy.fog Monday morning, are safe in port at Sarnia, Ont.,, where they ar- rived today aboard the steamer Wahcondah of the Canade Steamship Lines, Ltd. The Choctaw sank im- mediately after the collision with the Wahcondah. The latter’'s bow was punctured and a large hole was stove in her side, it is said, but watertight compartments kept her afloat. According to the report of Capt. D. F. Cornett, of the Wahcondah, the Choctaw sank so quickly some of the crew could not reach life boats and were compelled to jump ovérboard. The lake was comparatively calm, however, and they succeeded in keep- ing afloat until rescued by boats from the Canadian vessel. The loss of the Choctaw and her cargo is estimated at $125,000.

SHOULD LEAD NEUTRALS’ PROTEST Yale Professor Attacks Policy of -Germany New Haven, July 13.—Betting forth thé idea that it is time for the people and government of this country to place themselves in the front of the neutral nations for an efficient, and if need be enforced, protest against the German attitude and actions in this war, Prof. George T. Ladd, of Yale, in commenting upon the German reply to the United Statées note ex- presses the idea that theé contents of it should not surprise anyone who has carefully watched the policy of the German governmeént in the initiation and conduct of the war, and proceéeds to score the policy and its conse- quences and to peint out his idea of the German plan, which is back. of the whole. The German note need surprise no one,” Professor Ladd says, “who has watched carefully the. policy of the German government in the initiation and conduct of this war. Indeed, the note is so thoroughly consistent with the past that one famillar with this past might more r‘uon_a.bly be sur- prised at the ‘amazement’ whieh it is said to have occasioned at Washing- ton than at the character of the note itself. Passing by its self-laudatory introduction, its substantial contents may be conveniently divided into two parts. In the first of these, it aims to lay upon others—in this case upon Great Britain—the responsibility Yor its own departures from international, not to say humane usage; while in the second part it avows its intention to continue the same policy, in spite of all considerations, to the attainment of its own ends. From the very first, German has ruthlessly transgressed every principle of international law, whether as enacted by The Hague conventions of in the name of human- ity by general consent. It began by violating theé neutrality of Belgium, a neutrality which was not assumed by that state for its own advantage, but was constituted by the joint action of the allled nations, of whom Ger- many was one of the chief. Destroyed Villages and Towns, In its coaduct of the war, not only in Belglum, but also in France, Pol- and and South Africa, Germany has paid no attention whatever to any of the provisions designed (o mitigate the horrors of war. It has frequently transgressed the article which espec- ially forbids to kill or mutilate an onemy who has surrendered by dis- cretion. It has fréquently and need- leesly destroyed the properiy of the enemy, leaving all of Begium and a part of France so desolated thatthe peasants had not even the tools by which to cultivate their ground. It bas needlessly destroyed whole vil- ages and towns, looted the banksand private houses, as well, as the public offices. 1t has burned dwellings, buildings, villages and towns that were undelended and has shot and mutilated hundreds of non-combat- ants, not only men but also women and children. Many times it has taken no time to spare buildings de- voted to art, religion, science and charity. It has revived the abomin- able practice of holding non-combat- ante as hostages. Why then should Germany be expected to surrender the practice which, at the present time, it considers its most efficient way of carrying on the war against France and Great Britain? “It would, in my judgment,” con- tinued Professor Ladd, “be a great mistake to put all this on a par with any breazhes of international law, real or fancied, of which the Allies can justly be accused. At any rate the reference in the German note to such bredches, cannot be held to excuse them in any respect from the much worse breaches, not only of international law, but also of ths claim of humanity of which they have themselves been guilty. It is quite time, in my judgment, for the American people to understand and our goverament to take account of the. policy of which this war in its beginning and in iis conduct, is the natural and almost necessary resuit. For about twenty years wu’lflf definitely, since 1896, the so-called pan-Germanic doctrine has been tak- ing possession of the German govern- ment and of the minds of the Gur- man people. In its more definite and belligerent form, it laid it had onily a partial and varying success until some three or four years ago, but the events of 1911 and the so-called Ag- adir incident were felt by the Ger- man people to be so humiliating that the military closses, the wealthy land owneérs and those interested in for- eign trade have espoused this so~ called pan-Germanic doctrine and brought the Kaiser and the govern- ment under its control. It was their Intention to defer this European war until the completion of the Bagdad railway, should, with _the connivance or assistance of Turkey, make it possible for them to rapidiy threaten the Fréench and British con- trol in the Near East, including Egypt, the Suez canal, the Perslan gulf and evon British, Indla. But, seeing that the French and Russians were improving their conditions for armed resistance with unexpected rapidity, and Dbelieving that hands of Great Britain were tied, t furthered the attempts of the govern- ment of Austria to dominate Servia under pretence of avenging the as- sassination of the Austrian prinne, knowing full well that this wouid bring on a European war on Which they supposed would be ticularly favorable to them, To Orush Russta, “It .hould‘ be anderstovd that this Pdln-flol’mmflc doctrine which obtain- ed control of the.gavernment of Gef many has deliberately eflfl?"m‘:hu‘ the domination economically, and in its more’extreme form, politically, of all the surrounding neutral nations, such as Switzerland, Denmark, Hol- land and Belgium, anfl not satisfied with that, has looked" ftorward to crushing Russia, and Great Britain as'world powers;, 12 suc- cessful in this undertaking, by force of arnw, if necessary, to contest with us the application of the so-called Monroc doctrine in South America and Central America. It has been busy and is still busy in the Peking court confesting the aims, not only of Japan but of the United States, with refer- ence to the republic of China and has exploitation and worst of all it has fostered, by what, to use a German term, it calls ‘Manure Kultur’, an at- titude to the respective governments and peoples where Germans have im- migrated, which, one of the writers on the subject calls, not inaptly, ‘a mild form of treason. “Is it mot, then, quite time for the people and the government of ‘the United States to place themselves in front of the neutral nations for an ef- ficient, and if néed be an enforced pro- test against this attack on so much of which is choicest and best in mod- ern eivilization It is rather late, hut it is mot too Jate for our government to place this protest on the higher ground of the interest of humanity and thus to take its proper position &s the leader of the still meutral nations in the use of the force that is neces- sary to resist the evil influenices of the gpread of thie method of expansion.” —————— LIFE SAVED AFTER OPERATION FAILED Mrs, Clare Shaw of Providence Used Wonderful Remedy.
