American Consu!s Ordered to Help
Stranded Countrymen-President
Wilson Favors Law Admitting
Foreign Vessels to Register.

Washington. Aug. 4.-Plans prac
tica!ly have been completed for thu
care of Americans in war torn Eu
rope.
Congress, at the request of Presi
dent. Wilson, appropriated quarter
million dollars as an initial step and
will grant more funds If desired
The appropriation will be used in
caring for the immediate needs of
Americans, especially those without
means of obtaining any funds.
The New York bankers arranged
with the state and treasury depart,
ments to send s3,5OO,O0O in gold coin
to Europe to relieve American tour
lists stranded there and unable to get
cash for their checks and letters of
credit.
The gold was withdrawn from the
sub-treasury to be used for relief by
the Bankers Trust Company.
The bankers asked for an American
warship, either to carry the gold In
her strongroom or to convey a mer.
chairman. Whether this request was
agreed to by the cabinet officers is
not known but Secretary Bryan said
that the plan of shipping gold by some
means at the earliest possible moment
had been approved and that the de-
tails would be made public later.

UNCLE SAM AIDS TOURISTS
Officials at European Embassies Or
dered to Cash Checks and Let
ters Of Credit.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The United
States government today extended ,
helping hand to thousands of Ameri
cans stranded abroad without means
of cashing checks or letters of credi,
owing to the financial stringency pro
duced by European war.
Besides forwarding hundreds oil
kilograms to Americans through diplo
matte channels, orders were sent by
the state department to all consulates
legations and embassies to use every
influence at their disposal to obtain
money for citizens of the United
states. +
All American diplomatic officers
were instructed to exchange letters of
credit or travellers checks for "em-
bassy checks" or certificates. These
are issued by the authority of the
United States government. Secretary
Bryan said tonight he was confident
embassy checks" would be honored
by railroads, steamship companies and
hotels abroad.
Relatives and friends Of Americans
in Europe can deposit funds with the
state department in Washington and
an equivalent sum will be" advanced
in an embassy check abroad. Ameri-
cans devoid of funds will be given
loans, just as was. the case in Mex
leo, and an emergency appropriation
will be asked to care for any def
ciencies in this connection.

CALMNESS ENJO|NEO ON
ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS
President Wilson Says United
States Must Aid World in
Present Crisis.

Washington, Aug. 4.-President
Wilson today appealed to the people
Of the United States to remain calm
during the war in Europe. He de-
clared the United States owes it to
mankind to help the rest of the world
during the present crisis. He told
callers today the United States had
not directly or indirectly made any
offer to use It's good Offices to bring
about peace in Europe. He said he
had not heard of a suggestion by the
Queen of Holland that the United
States unite with her country: to Of
fer mediation.
The President declared the United
States could gain great and perma-
nent glory during the present trouble
provided no one lost his head. The
President urged that nothing be done
in America to add to the excitement
of the world. There is sure to be in
convenience to the financial institu-
tions of the country, he told the call
ers, but added that the administra-
ton Is fully prepared to help out In
all difficulties. He urged that no
credence be given to unconfirmed re-
ports Of sensational nature.
The President declared there was
no cause for any serious alarm in the
United States. The administration is
bending every effort, he said, toward
Untf{pu CHI a. ~
and other products of the United
States to all the world and to bring
home Americans stranded in Europe.
A proclamation Of neutrality, Mr.
Wilson said, will be issued as soon
as 1t can be completed by the state
department. He does not believe
there will be any necessity for con-
gress to remain in session because
of the war in Europe.

probably the Twenty-ninth infantry
invaded the grand duchy of Luxem

The German force which came into

| Four Nations Engaged.
London, Aug. 3.-Four great pow
ers of Europe, Austria-Hungary, Rus
STA, France and Germany, are now en-
gagged in actual warfare, but two of
them, Germany and France, not only
have not declared war against each
other, as far as known here, but have
not even severed diplomatic relations.
This is despite the fact that Ger
many's ultimatum to France, has
either been ignored or rejected
The explanation of this would ap-
pear to be that Germany and France
are each seeking to throw upon the
other the onus of beginning the war.
In fact, while the nations of Europe
are flying at each others Threats they
are vieing with each other in protest
ing their desire to maintain peace and
repudiate the responsibility for plung-
ing the whole continent into blood.
