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.

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.

WEEK YET TO MASS MEN FOR BIG FIGHT (Continued from Page One.) 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 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.
