Silver Courts, Main floor, Old Building Motor Entrance at Tenth Street. U. S. Senators Reed, Thomas, Calder and Gore Speak and All Records for Loan Are Smashed.

Fourth Liberty Loan wibscriptions totaling $5,000,000, which will prob-. be increased to $6,000,000 when the final figures are announced, were received at the mass meeting of the Manufacturers Trust Company at the Academy of Music last night. This breaks all records for any such meeting held anywhere in the country for all loans. Besides It tho $4,300,000 in cubscriptlons sold at the rally of the Allied Musical Trades in Manhattan last week seems small. This was made possiblo because the Manufacturers Trust Company offered to duplicate any subscription taken at the meeting.

Only tho large ones were reported. They totaled and President Nathan H. Jonas aid he expected $500,000 more in smaller purchases, or (3,000,000 in all, so that his company would have to subscribe for $3,000,000 to rover this amount. On the opening day of the drive the company took its quota of 13,197,000. This was raised to $7,1117,000 today, and a further increase is likely us a result of last night's event.

Iiarely has such a demonstration been held in Brooklyn. The Academy was packed. Every seat in the orchestra and both balconies was occupied. Hundreds of others, who managed to crowd into the building, stood in the back of the house. Fully 3,000 persons were in the opera house, and more than half as many more had to be turned away.

When the rally was held during the last loan drive an overflow meeting was held in the Music Hall, but this was occupied last night, so no other meeting was held. At one time the line waiting outside extended along Ashland place almost to Flatbush ave. The settings were just right for the record-breaking event. On the platform were medal-bedecked representatives of nearly all America's Allies in the great world war. In back of them were their flags.

The building was ablaze with red, white and bluo, flags being festooned in front of the balconies and the boxes. Between each pair of American flags was tho emblem of one of the other countries In the conflict against Prussian militarism. On the curtain was a portrait of President Wilson surmounted with the flags of six of the larger nations seeking to preserve democracy, and on either side two large star-spangled banners. Nahan Franko's symphony orchestra opened tho exercises with a group of selections followed bv a program Bddom equaled in Brooklyn. There were addresses by four United States Senators William M.

Calder of New York, Thomas P. Ciore of Oklahoma, James A. Heed of Missouri and Charles S. Thomas of Oklahoma the last two never having spoken here. There were vocal Rolos by Mme.

Alma Clauburgh, concert artist; Mme. Margaret Namara of the Chicago Opera Company, and Sgt. Irving Berlin; recitations by Otis Skinner and Donald Brian; violin solos F.lias Breeskin, who took tile place of Max Rosin, who was ill, and talks by representatives of Canada, France and China. The keynote of all the speeches was that trough Germany seems to be on the point of breaking she must be shown no mercy, but must be brounht to her knees. The present bright outlook, it was declared, should be an added incentive to put the loan "over the top." (subscriptions Came Faster Than Clerks Could Record Them.

Consequently, when the call came for subscriptions, everyone was on the pinnacle of patriotic enthusiasm. The subscriptions came from individuals, employees and employers faster than it was possible to jot them down. But Mr. Jonas did not wait until the end to announce pledges. He told of large ones at various times during the evening, as a forerunner of what, was coming later.

The speakers were all frequently interrupted by applause. The artists all gave their services gratis lo help the loan along. After the opening group of patriotic, operatic and popular selections by the orchestra, the curtain was raised revealing a tableau, with Mme. Clay-burgh in the center, flanked by two standard bearers on either side, those of Italy and the United States at her right and of France and England on her left. In front and beneath them were soldiers and sailors armed with rifles and bayonets.

The orchestra had already played the Italian national air, so Mine. Clayburgh sang first "Rule Britannia" as the soldier with the Union Jack stepped forward. She followed this with "Marseillaise," and then taking "Old Glory" from the standard bearer sang "The Star-Span-gled Banner" with all tho fervor she possessed. Following this the foreign dignitaries and other guests marched down 1he aisle from the reception hall, where they had been received, and up onto the stage. Sgt.

Irving Berlin then took tho crowd by storm singing "How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning," for which he had to respond to two encores. Mme Xamara, Ruys First liond. Otis Skinner was next introduced and recited a poem by Captain Home entitled "Tho Devout. Highlander." He was followed by Mme. Margaret Namara.

of the Chicago Opera Company. She sang "Un bel di," an aria from Puccini's Gounod's "Ave Maria," with violin ohllgato by Capt. Franko. and "There's a. Long, Long Trail." Before singing tho last selection, however, she said: "I want to have the honor of buying Hie first Bond here tonight.

I'm going to start it with Victor A. Lersner, president of the. Savings Bank Association of the United States, read letters of regret, nt their inability lo be present from Governor Benjamin Strong of the Sec- ond Federal Reserve District and Sec- vectnry of the Treasurer William G.

John Philip Sousa came to Brooklyn yesterday in aid of the Fourth Liberty Loan. With the Great Lakes Naval Training Station Band of 310 pieces he gave a concert during the afternoon before a crowd of niore than 25.000 persons in the Flower Garden, Prospect Park, and, in the evening, entertained as many thousands more as could force their way into tha 18th Regt. Armory. The celebration in Prospect I'ark was arranged by the' Brooklyn Liberty Loan Committee in co-operation with Borough President Riegehnann and Purk Commissioner Harman. The evening affair was arranged by CoL Clarence W.

Smith of the 13th C. A. C. and the Liberty Loan Committee. Police Inspectors Murphy and McElroy declared that the crowd was the largest ever assembled there.

For the I'ark concert Lt. Sousa selected a program which struck the popular fancy. The numbers included patriotic and religious selections. The medleys Included "Over There," "Tenting Tonight," "The Gang's All Here" and "Yankee Doodle." "Onward, Christian Soldiers," created considerable enthusiasm. After Sousa had been introduced by K.

C. Granbery. executive manager of the Brooklyn Liberty Loan Committee, the lieutenant made a speech. It consisted of two words, "Buy Bonds." JSousa was not recognized by many in the crowd. Since he closed his series in Brooklyn in the summer of 1901 at the Manhattan Beach Hotel he has shaved off the beard which had been as inseparable a part of his appearance as the baton.

Mr. Granbery declared that Brooklyn would certainly go over the top in the present loan. He pointed to the borough's creditable showing during the previous Liberty Loan and Red Cross drives. Brooklyn's 90,000 men who are in the Army and Navy will not be neglected by the folks back home, he said. Academy, down the aisle back onto the stage and took up positions in back of the guests.

As they halted another curtain was lifted revealing Liberty holding her light aloft. Chairman Jonas then introduced Senator William M. Calder, who, be said, wished to extend greetings. Senator Calder's Address. Senator Calder said in part: "Brooklyn is a home community, and we have always done our part in every patriotic movement and everything that we have been called upon by the Government to do.

This time we are asked to give, or asked to lend to the Government in this Fourth Liberty Loan, $79,000,000. That seems a lot of money; but when one stops to reason out the number of people living in this borough and our business development here, the raising of $79,000,000 ought not to be a difficult Job." The Senator told what Brooklyn did in the last Liberty Loan and Red Cross drives, and said the borough had already sent to the Army and Navy more than 90,000 soldiers and sailors who had already rendered great service. "And so we ow'e it to these boys," ho continued, "we Brooklyn men ond women owe it to them, to do our full duty on this occasion. I appeal to you with nil the power I possess to lend, to lend every dollar you can afford to the Government at this time. "We read in the papers a few weeks ago of the breaking of Bulgaria.

This morning, if the newspaper reports are true, and they seem to be, Austria is showing evidence of a determination to quit. The war news looks very good. But, my friends, let that not in any degree tend toward prompting us to discontinue our efforts in all these matters. Let this not only be a Liberty Loan, but let us try to make this so big, not only in Brooklyn, but in New York State and the rest of the Nation, that the world will know that it is a Victory Loan besides." The next speaker was Capt. Arthur Hunt Chute of the "Princess Pats." "Germany is very, very interested in peace tonight," said Capt, Chute.

"She is far more interested in peace tonight than she was last March. Germany started this war, but believe me, she can't stop it. Germany started this war, but the Americans are going to end it. This war will not end until we have given the Germans the only thing that they understand, and that is a damned good licking, until as Col. Roosevelt would say.

'We have got them beaten to a frazzle, Capt. cnute said nc was speauing as the representative of Canada, and that Canada would light on until victory was achieved. "You have been in peace in Brooklyn because tho British fleet up there in the North Sea has never yet been conquered. And I say, thank God that there tonight alongside of the meteor flag of England the Star-Spangled Banner is flying, and I ask you, my friends, to do your utmost here in this meeting tonight to see that those proud flags, as they fly out tonight, shall fly out more victoriously because of what you have done in this place tonight." he concluded. Klias Breeskin next played several violin solos, accompanied by Emanuel Balaran, after which Mr.

Jonas said: Subscription Announced. "I have not asked for subscriptions j'et, but they have been handed in all evening. As fair sample of what is coming a distinguished citizen of Brooklyn just beckoned to me and said: 'I have to leave, but I want to leave a subscription for $100,000, as a partial subscription of B. H. Howell's Son through James H.

Mme. Clayburgh sang again, after which Senator Reed of Missouri was introduced. Among other things he said "I came all the way from St. Louis to attend this meeting, and as I rolled along in a luxurious train I wondered if we really knew there was a war, and 1 began to think of here and yonder. Here the cornfields were rich the glory of a crop just to bo harvested.

the stout stalks holding up the golden ears for the Inst, touch of the sun, and hero were hillsides green with the eternal verdure of the bluo grass, in which fat cattlo stood knee deep, and flocks of sheep wandered hither and thither like white drifts of snow, and I thought of other fields that were brown and sere and plowed with cannon shot and shell and burned to death by poisoned gases poured out from deadly shells." He then pictured conditions on the other side, and toin now German nfliccrs unconcernedly watch women was Iiignwayninn; and we punished them as such. We even learned to pnish Iho Hoods who nssem- bled bands and the Captain Kidds who commanded pirate craft, and bung them as they should have well been hung.

All our best Gives Stirring Address on "Woodrow Wilson, Prophet, in Marcy Avenue Church. "Woodrow Villon, Prophet," was the subject of the address last evening by Darwin P.

Kingsli president of the New Yorii Life Insurance Com- pany, at the Many Avenue Baptist Church. Mr. Kingsley declared that the, pri- mary cause of the world war was the I doctrine of sovereignty practiced and preached by the German military i caste, who found it necessary to be- come liars. He classified the German rulers as reptiles of the prehistoric I age, whoso acts at first we found difficult to accept, even thouuh presented I with the facts nnd which were more! difficult to believe even with the facts, i "We find," he said, "that these rep- tiles never die. We arc wearing moral gas masks.

Our boys have got to light these reptiles. 'ie hate it, but we're in it and we ure going to finish the job. Man is the only animal thai can lie and be deceived. Germany's great crime consists in lying. First to her own people and then to the whole world.

We are prepared to make the great liar pay to the last farthing. "Since 184 8 they have been taught a false philosophy and systematic lying, and as a result the German people are cruel, unbelievingly cruel. Do you think they know what dishonor and murder mean? No. They believe it is evidence of their loyalty. Through it the military caste have been made liars, first to I lie people, and then to the whole world by their ambassadors and diplomats, who were chiefs of es-pionage and great liars upon world questions.

"There ure three reasons which caused this systematic lying first, they actually became obsessed with the idea that they were supcrmcu; second, they knew the people would follow, and third, it was kind of a necessity. Our duty, then, is twofold first, slay this reptile, and, second, break the bands about the people. "We will soon be in the supreme hour of this crisis, and above the voices of the future relations of States we hear the voice of Woodrow Wilson, who. with great constructive ideas, stands alone." Dr. Moore also called the attention of the women to the fact that they must register during the coming week otherwise they will not be permitted to vote in the November election, there being great moral issue involved, in who will be the next Governor of this State.

We have but one aim, to crush German autocracy by winning this war. The Chinese people for centuries, under the influence oi Confucianism, has always worshipped a humanitarian ideal, and not a military ideal.

Jacob Mourer. Senator Gore, the final speaker, said In part: Senator Gore's Address. "When I addressed yon in April last, gloom hung like a mighty pall over the Allied armies and over the Allied peoples. Anxiety filled the minds of free men everywhere. The German drive was then nt the height of its power.

The German hordes were advancing. The German advance seemed all but irresistible. Paris was in peril. Civilization was in danger. I Tho destiny of the human race was! then trembling in tho balance.

My countrymen, how changed is the situation today. Gloom has given place to sunshine. Anxiety has given place lo high ami confident hopes. The German advance has been turned into German retreat, into a proposal for peace. The tide.

An American general, ordered to retreat, sent back the heroic message that 'The Stars and Stripes never Fight thousand American Marines saved the day at the Marne. Saved the day?

Boy Scouts in uniform were in the procession of choristers and the clergy and the scouts carried the Allies' flags. The rector of the church, the Rev. T. J. Lacey.

took for his text a quotation from President Wilson's speech, "jus tice and fair-dealing." Dr. Laccy in i corporated into his sermon a great deal of the President's Liberty Loan speech, making a fine etfect. derer, because it wears a crown. If I have my way there will be no compromise with these monsters of hell. If I have my way though I speak with passion, I speak with deliberation if I have my way when this war is ended, there will be an International court before which every crowned head that ordered the Invasion of a peaceful State and the burning of cities and the murder of men and women shall come to just trial and a just punishment.

"And when that time has come, the world will not only be safe for Democracy but it will be safe for men and women, the things that God has made. And I hope that peace will not come until the last titled scoundrel who has abused his power and crushed the hopes of men and ordered armies to tread upon the hearts of human folks, shall have been driven from his throne." I At this juncture Donald Brian ar rived anu was introduced, lie rusneu almost breathless onto the stage carrying a paper which was headed, "Peace on U. S. Terms Asked of America by Germany." This he read and then recited a war-time selection. Mr.

Jonas then read a letter from Capt. Gaston Vallabregue of the French High Commission, regretting his inability to be present. The chairman said, however, that the commander and four officers of the French warship Conde were present. He then presented Lt. Labat, who lauded the Americans for what they had done on the battlefield and urged everyone lo buy bonds.

"Carry On!" Shoiltw French Lieutenant "Thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of American boys have gone over there to help us to make the world free again," he said. "And your brave boys who have been fighting, who have won two wonderful victories at Chateau-Thierry and at St. Mihiel your boys have taken the same password as the Allies. When they came the Germans started a most formidable drive against Paris, and we heard the American boys saying, 'They shall not and we heard them saying again, 'Forward' and 'Cany "They have gone forward, nnd thousands of them have given their lives; thousands of them are ready to give their lives again.

"I want to say a few words to you myself to get the business end of this meeting started, to give you something to' think about while the next speaker is speaking to you, and to tell you something" he paused then as a roar of laughter went up, then ho said, "I guess I made a break" (a voice, "I guess you which caused more laughter and applause.

"Anyway, Senator Thomas will forgive me, because he knows I mean well. "If the program of the meeting, which is historical because of its international character, has pleased you, we know that your purchases of bonds will please us.
