ued: "If Great Britain had accepted what
reply could she have mado to the Bel
gians' appeal . It could only have repl ed
that we had bartered away to the power
threatening her. our obligations to keep
our plighted word. What would have been
Great Britain's position If It assented to
this Infamous proposal and what was It
to get In return? Noting but a promise
given by a power which at that moment
was announcing Its Intention of violating
Its own treaty."

Appeals far Transportation.
WASHINGTON. Aug. B.-tieneral Im
provement In the conditions among
Americans abroad was shown today In'
official dispatches to the State depart'
ment. Urgent appeals for transportation,
however, continued.
Ambassador Herrick reported the ' fi
nancial panic had been sj far alleviated
in Taiia that he r i inmtndcd that the I
sold on board the cruiser Tennessee be
diverted to other cities in grca'er need.
K. H. Gary, chairman of the relief com.
mlttee in Paris, stated that at least M.OOJ
Americans were In need of transportation
and that with present accomodations it
would take alx months to move them.
Ftom Vienna Ambassador Penfield tele-'
graphed under date of August 3 that he
was making 'every . effort to get Ameri
cans out of Austria before yesterday at
midnight, when all transportation was to
be stopped for a period of some weeks.
Tha plan was to transport the foreigners
from Vienna to Trieste and thence to
Venice, where they can embark on Italian
vessels.
So- far there has been no danger to
Americans, but great Inconvenience. Tha
Cunarder Carpathla has ..already left
Flume for Malta with a number aboard.
London Work Well Organise..
Oscar ' Straus and P. I. Kent, repre
sentatives of the Bankers' Trust com
pany, both members of the relief com
mittee in London, reported that their
work was fully organized and a complete
list Of alt Americana In Kngland will be
issued tomorrow. Needs of transports
capable of carrying at least 20,000 people
was urged since the lack r.f gold haa
made It Impossible for many to obtain
even food to say nothing of lodging.
Similar conditions ex.st at Milan, ac
cording to Consul Stewart.
Consul Baahr reported Switzerland also
filled with Americans unable to secure
credit.
From Bergen, Norway, a dispatch
signed by the Arctic Explorer Rassmus

polar axpedition on board the Prins Fried
rich Wllhelm on their way to Bremen
had dlstrobarked and asked for assist
ance. W. Q. Sharp, the newly appointed am
bassador to France, will proceed as soon
as he can secure passage.
Ship Owners Arc tireeay.
Secretary Garrison expressed his chagrin
at tha disposition of American steamship
companies to charge whet he considers
exorbitant prices for vessels to transport
Americans. Mr. Garrison said preliminary
Inquiries brought Information that ves
sels could be obtained for about )duO a
day. The price a'.ddenly has been
doubled.
'T do not intend It have any one gat
suddenly rich out of this business," said
Secretary flarrtion. "The steamship
companies will find they cannot use this
occasion tj siphon money out of the
United States treasury."
For that reason Mr. Garrison said It
will be Ms purpose first, to employ soma
of the twelve army transports at Galves
ton already being refitted for transatlan
llo service. He has made Inquiry If he
haa authority to commandeer commercial
vessels for the emcigency, and it hope
ful that the government can aelxe ships
and afterward arrange for a fair com
pensation for their use.
Inquiries for Pacific vessels have de
veloped that nothing is available there
more adaptable than on the Atlantio side.

tha Oerman staff long ago decided that
tha invaalon of France through Its
strongly fortified eastern frontier was too
difficult to be relied upon.
It Is "plain that Germany thought It
preferable to violate Belgian neutrality
and drive England into the field against
her than to rely on getting Into Franca
through the latter'a curtain of powerful
fortifications. There is little doubt that
the Germans will succeed in forcing their
way through Belgium,
Trneae la Csixscrji,
The Times' Copenhagen dispatch says:
"Yesterday 15,000 troopa were ordered to
man fortifications of Copenhagen. Tha
feeling here la pessimistic, but it Is still
hoped that Denmark's neutrality would
not be Infringed upon.'
The Times' Stockholm dispatch says:
"Partial mobilization of the defense of
tha neutrality of Swoden was ordered
yesterday and la proceeding normally. Tha
public -is keenly alive to the gravity of
the situation and even the socialists favor
tha mobilisation movement."
The Times' Berne despatch says: "Tha
national council assembled today In ex
traordinary session. The president an
nounced that Switserland has lecelved
assurances from the French and Ger
man governments that they would respect
her neutrality. While they accepted with
gratification auch assurances, the Swiss
government wss taking all necessary pre
cautionary movements for the defense of
the fatherland, and was confident tha
army- would be ready for all emergencies.''

The Daily Mall's. Brussels metsage says:
"The Walltons and Flemings have sunk
all their differencea of view of the na
tional crisis. The troops of tha two
races sang choruses together on their
way out of Brussels to tha front this
morning. There is talk of the seat of
government being transferred from Brus

casualties as high as 8,000.
German Crolsera Are Safe
From Rome came a report that the
German cruisers Goeben and Brealau had
escaped the pursuit of French and British
warships after bombarding the Algerian
coast and had safely reached a Sicilian
port. .
German war vessels are said to have
penetrated the Gulf of Finland and bom
barded Sveaborg, the "northern Gibral
tar." No definite confirmation of the reported
ultimatum from Germany to Italy camo
to hand here.
' Aa soon as Prince Mchnowsky. the Ger
man ambassador, left London today tho
American embassy assumed full care of
German Interests In the British lslos.
It win B. Laughlln, the American secre
tary of embassy, devoted himself to this
business.
Manr Germans In Great Britain.
It was estimated by the embassy that
there were . 100,000 Germans In Great
Britain, but there were no means of as
certaining how many of these had left
since the beginning of serloua trouble be
tween tho nations. Many Germans resldo
in England In order to escape military
service, "but a great number of these are
said to have applied to be permitted to
serve In the German army as soon aa
Emperor William offered pardon for de
serters. So far the British government had not
Issued any order for the expulsion of
Germans and none la expected, so that
those now here are HVely to remain.
British families, however, are discharg
ing all German '. servants, governnesses
and chauffeurs, so that the German ben
evolent societies have their hands full In
supplying the needs at tha destitute.
. Asaexteana Ask for Food.
Many Americana today asked for help
to obtain food and lodging. There were
many Instances of persons with gold
certificates In their pockets walking the
streets all night hungry. Some of these
were relieved by small unsecured loans
from H. C. Hoover of California, who
spent moat of the day working to obtain
a reasonable rate of exchange for Amer
ican bills. The rate Is now exorbitant.
Among the callers at the American con
sulate general was Mrs, James T. Macey
of Denver, who was ordered out of hoi
sick bed In a hospital at Antwerp Mon
day with only . two hours' notice. She
was told the hospital was needed for the
wounded. Mrs. Macey left her mother
and child In Germany.
' The street In front of the American
I consulate general today was packed with
j Germans, mostly youths of the servant
Class coming rrom ail parts oi tne Hritian
Isles to register their names, so that they
might return to Germany to fight If pos
sible. The Germuns were very peace
able and the police on duty were aole
easily to keep them In line.
The clerks within the consulate general
meanwhile registered their names and
address and stamped their military books
to protect them against being classed as
deserters in case they were unable to re
turn to Germany.
There waa no show of feeling against
the English in the crowd of men return
ing to their fatherland as a patrlotlo

"We must"
Several hundred German seamen ex

Germans Want Hellish Cltlsrnahlp.
There was a rush of Germans of all
classes to the home office today to securo
British naturalization papers.
About une-hulf of the sixty American
delegates to tho church peace conference,
which was to have been held at Con
stance, have reached London. Tha other
half were left behind. Those who came
through were taken under the apeclul
protection of Emperor William and given
a safe conduct to the frontier of Holland.
Consul General Skinner is overwhelmed
w'ili personal letters and dispatches In

for him to trv to locate people or answer
letters or telegrams. Extra clerks have
been employed at tho consulate general.
but even with this help all the demands
