quence of a Russian attack on. German
territory, Germany la In a atata ct ar

Oerman representation la of an unsatis
factory character. Moreover, Franco has
mobilised and an outbreak of war wljh
France muat therefore ba reckoned 'with
any day or any moment."
' Another statement declar-e that Rus
sia haa Invaded Germany duiinar a time
of peace, "In flagrant contradiction of
Russia's peaceful assurance.''
LUXEMBURG.. AuT t-Tha mlntater
of tha state of Luxemburg; baa received
a telegram from tha Oerman Imperial
chancellor declaring tha military meas

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The vast ma
chinery of the federal government was
tinned today toward the perfection of
plans to fortify the American banking
system ao that the natlon'a share In the
financial burden of European war will
ba distributed on many shoulders and
Its direct effects minimised.
Conferences at tha Whlta Houae and
Treasury department at which the for
eign and domestic aspects of tha situa
tion were dlacussed culmlns4 lata to
day In the departure for New Tork of
Secretary McAdoo and Comptroller of the
Currency Wllllama.
These two men have all tha govern
ment authority to put Into operation the
plan which congress designed years ago
for auch altuatlons aa tha present by
which tha national banks of the country
can obtain WJO.OOO.OOO In currency under
the Aldrlch-Vreeland act with which to
face any condition and meet any obliga
tions la Ezeelleat Shape.
Mr. McAdoo, before ha left, declared
that ha considered the country to be In
excellent shape to take care of Itself, and
that there was not the slightest reason
for any feeling of alarm. President Wll
aop, who discussed the situation at lunch
eon with Secretary McAdoo, Is confident
that any condition which arises can ba
met without great difficulty. Mr. Mc
Adoo and Mr. Wllllama will confer with
financiers In New Tork aa soon aa poa
alblo and these conferences are expected
to strengthen the spirit of co-operation
between tha government and the banka.
Mr. McAdoo may return to Washington
lata tomorrow In time to meet repre
sentatives of the clearing houae associa
tions of Chicago and St. Louis, now an
route to tha capital at hia Invitation.
Pelt ta Gwoaaaa rtrat.
In official circle hero the feeling waa
evident that any unusual atraln will be
manifest first In New Tork. and both
tha president and Mr. McAdoo . were
anxious thnt the highest government
financial authority be on the ground.
Before Mr. McAdoo left Washington the
treasury shipped out about fioo.000,000 of
tha Aldrlch-Vreeland currency which will
be In tha vaults of tha aubtreasurles to
morrow ready for tha New York banks.
Approval af Carraacy.
Thia currency In moat essentials la like
that or tha national banks,' but can be
Issued on tha security of high class com
mercial paper or atate and ' municipal
bonds. Commercial paper used for this
purpose must ba approved not only by
tho bank which aska for currency In ex
change, but by tha particular special as- j
aoclatlon of which the bank la 'a mem-1
bar. ...
In addition the security must be ac
ceptable to tha government. Tomorrow
Mr. McAdoo and Mr. Wllllama probably
a HI scan securities offered by New York
banka for emergency currency and facll
tata In every way Ita movement front
tha aubtreasury to tha banka.
It would not surprise officials In Wash
ington If Mr. McAdoo used hia Influence
In New York to keep tho New York Stock
exchange closed for some time. . No di
rect proposal of this kind may be mads,
but ha la expected to ahow that the gov
ernment doea not look kindly upon the
reopening! of tha exchange at this time
and the speculation which may follow.
A feature of the situation here which
called forth favorable comment tonight
was the Impression which the admini
stration has gained that party differences
In congress are to be laid aside for the
present, and that the president and his
advisers can count upon unanimous sup
port In any meaaurea they deem needful
to meet conditions.
There haa been no call from outside
Naw York for Aldrlch-Vreeland currency
and it was not believed here tonight that
other banka will make auch calls. The
treasury la stocked with many millions
mora of bills printed, stamped and
packed, ready for Instant shipment. The
very fact that thia vat itim la here la
expected to have a reassuring effect
throughout the country. Another factor
which offlclaia think may help to allay
uneaalness Is tha deposit of 134,000,000 by
the treasury In national banka in tha
farming sections of the country to be
used In moving crops. This fund will be
available aa aoon aa the banka comply
with the conditions laid down by the dl
partment. and probably will be pla'ttd at
their disposal within a short time. Dis
tributed through a large section of the
country. It will aid the banka la meeting
the uaual demand for money- for the crop
movement, relieving New York front this
burden.
It became plainly evident today that
the flrat concern of the adminlatratlon Is
for American financial institutions, and
that quentlons of foreign exchange and
International finance are to be relerated
to second place. Karly today Mr. ic
Adoo had a long talk with Max May of
the Guaranty Trust company, August
L'irlch of Ladenburg, Thalman and com
pany, and Franklin '. Brown of Red
mond and company, all of New York.
Paul M. Warburg, nomineo for the
Federal Reserve board, Adolph C. Miller,
a member of the board, and Comptroller
Wllllama also were present. Mr. May and
Mr. l'irlch called particularly to discuss
the questions of foriign exchange. Mr.
McAdoo was glad to get all possible In
formation about International banking
conditions, but no concrete plan was
adopted by which the government will
mix in affairs between American and
foreign bankers.
It wss understood hen that the New
Yorkers did not present any specific
plans for the betterment of conditions In
the exchange market, but dlacussed many
ideas. They returned to New York today
and are to call a meeting of foreign ex
change bankers there tomorrow. There
.as passing reference to the creation of
a 1 100,000,000 fund for the use of English
bankers, but It waa explained, however,
that It la not Intended to have the
United States government lay aside such
a sum to the benefit of British bankers.
It waa the understanding that It might be
found advisable for New York foreim ex
change houses to extend a large line of
credit to British Institutions of known
soundness.
It was presumed that how the treasury
would view European commercial paper
under present conditions waa an aspect
of this plan to be considered. It waa
made clear, however, that the treasury,
willing aa It Is to give every possible aid,
regards this matter as one to be ar
ranged between the bankers concerned.

Kasser Says lie
Is On Defensive
BERLIN, Aug. I. An official communi
cation, published here today concerning
the beginning of the war, says:
"In consequence of a Russian attack on
German territory, Germany la in a atate
of war with Russia.
"The French reply to Germany'a note
haa been received In the meantime and la
of unsatisfactory character. In addition.
France has ordered the mobilisation of Its
army, so that the outbreak of war be
tween Germany and France must be
awaited at any moment."
Another semi-official communication. Is
sued today, says:
"While no German soldier has yet set
foot on French soil, official reports from
the frontier, state that French troops In
bodies aa large aa a company crossed the
German frontier at Gottesthal, Netseral,
Markclch and the Schlucht Pass, before
there was any declaration of war.
"A breach of neutrality also has been
committed through the fact that French
military airmen In great numbers have
flown over Belgium and Dutch territory
on their way to Germany."
M. Sverblev, the Russian ambassador,
waa handed hia passports this morning.
Dealing with the question of Great
Britain's obligations. Sir Edward Grey,
said:
"Up to yesterday we had given no
promise of mora than diplomatic support.
I waa asked at the time of the Algeria
crisis If we would give armed support,
and I said I could promise nothing to any
sforelgn power unices It received the
whole-hearted support of public opinion.
"I Cava no promise, but I told both the
French and German ambassadors that If
war. was forced on France, public opinion
In the British Isles would rally to
France."
This part of the speech waa received
with loud cheering.
The foreign secretary stated that the
British fleet had been mobilised and the
mobilisation of the British army was
taking place, but that no engagement had
yet been made by the British government
to aend an expedition abroad. He con
tinued: "The French fleet is in the Mediter
ranean and tha northern coasts of Franco
are defenseless. If a foreign fleet en
gaged In war against France should come
down and battle against those defenseless
coasts we could not stand aside.
"We feel strongly that Franca waa en
titled to know at once whether In the
event of an attack on Ita unprotected
coasta It could rely on our support.
"I gave the Information to the French
ambassador last nlgtit that If the German
fleet goea into the Kngllah channel or Into
tha North aea to attack French shipping,
or tha French coast, tha British fleet will
give all the protection in Ita power.
"That answer is subject to the approval
of Parliament It Is not a declaration of
war."
