SULLIVAN LEAVES
 FOR MEXICO CITY.
U. S. to Observe Strict Neutrality in
 Carranza-ViiIa Controversy.

Washington, Oct. S.-In dealing with constitutionalist authorities regarding the establishment of a provisional gov ernment. Consul John R. Silliman, who left Washington tonight for Mexico City, will follow closely the wishes of President Wilson and other admins trsltion officials with whom he has consulted during his brief stay here. The consul was advised that the ad- ministration would observe strictly enutral relations in the Carranza-Villa controversy and desired only a peace full settlement.
 To members of the National Press club at a luncheon in his honor today MT. Silliman said that the restoration of normal conditions in the southern republic would find Mexico's people and those of this nation more closely bound in friendship.
 q think we will find" he said that much has been said in hastiness and bitterness and that there is no serious antipathy and no hatred in Mexico toward the United States. I find no reason why the friendship between the two nations should not. become strong CT, broader and deeper in the new Mexico than it has been in the old"

GERMAN SYSTEM
 OF INFRINGEMENT
Which Thus Far Has Made Efforts of
 Allies Prove Futile.

The Hague, Sept. 26.-(Correspond- ence of The Associated Press)-The heroic but thus far futile efforts of the allies to drive the Germans from their main positions along the western battle line, has drawn military men here to a study of the German system of entrenchment- Since the 18th of the month, French and English artil- lery has thrown thousands of tons and shell and shrapnel against the Ger man trenches and their infantry has made many an assault, but still the Germans hold the ground chosen for the defensive when on the tenth of September it became evident that only a general falling back of the armies commanded by Generals Von Kluck, Won HauSen and the Duke of Wuert temburg, could foil the tremendous flank movement initiated by the French, Very little is known of the character of the German entrench- ments, at least no official information dealing with the subject is at hand. It is certain, however that the field works of the German army are of the best type, and that they contain some new features.

WAS OPPOSITION TO
 JAP WAR APPROPRIATION
But Finally in the Interest of Harmony
 It Was Withdrawn.

Tokio, Sept. s-(Correspondence Of The Associated Press).-A few mem bers of the opposition party opposed the government war programme dur ing the special session of the Japanese diet, but finally in the interest of na- tionai harmony withdrew all oppost- ton. and the war credit of about $27,- 900, 1000 was voted. The opposition took the form of a remonstrance against Japan submitting to any form of linn itations at the hands of Great Britain as to what she could or could not do in the war with Germany.
 It was not in keeping with Japan's national pride, speaker said. that Japan should be kept from the South seas or any other part of the Pacific ocean where her interest as a nation at war might call her.
 One of the members of the opposition wanted to know whether Japan had been consulted about the agreement made between Great Britain, France and Russia binding the signatories not to conclude peace without the consent of the others.
 '-No,'' said Baron Kato, tour govern ment has in no way been consulted. The Anglo-Japanese treaty of alliance provides for consultation only with re- gard to far eastern affairs. This, pec- haps, was the reason why we were not taken into council'
 The member persisted: Belgium, which is engaged in the war, is also out of this agreement. Am I mis- taken in thinking that Japan has been treated as being on a par with Bel gium?"

DIRECTING CAMPAIGN FOR
 GREATER TURKISH NAVY.
Rustem Bey Believed to Be Devoting
 Energies to That End.

Washington, Oct. s.-A. Hassein Bey, formerly first secretary of the imperial Ottoman embassy, has been made charge d'affaires in the absence of Am bassador A. Rustem Bey, who left New York for Turkey yesterday. Although the ambassador left Washington be- cause of friction with the state de- partment over statements issued by the diplomat to the press, it is said he will resume his post on his return from his leave of absence.
 The fact that the Turkish envoy planned his departure some time before the incident with the state department and close relations existing between embassy officials and officers of an American shipbuilding company has been construed by officials here to mean that Rustem Bey is directing a campaign for a greater Turkish navy. The ambassador protested against the sale of two American battieships to Greece and stated at the time that no matter what efforts to increase her navy Greece might take, Turkey would outstrip her.

tions and ready to meet any offensive move by the Germans.
 Some distance farther south, near Roye the artillery and infantry fight ing continues very sharp. At other points along the battle line the oppos- ing forces today maintained their po- sitions. contenting themselves with desultory firing.
 The French Colonel Marchand of Fashoda fame is among those report ed to have been seriously wounded when a splinter from a shell struck him in the leg.
 While endeavoring to give prompt succor to wounded between the lines during the course of last night, a party of litter bearers belonging to the American ambulance lost their di- rection and approached the German entrenchments. Several German sen- tries challenged the bearers, who lay down and remained quiet and later returned safely to the allied lines.
 The Earl of Fitzwilliam, who was born in Canada, is very active in per- forming his duties as a transport staff officer of the British army. He controls thousands of motor cars and horse vehicles of every variety and has been of great service in keeping the field army supplied.

AMBASSADOR NOTIFIED
 OF DAY OF PRAYER
Secretary Bryan Has Sent Massage to
 Capitals of All Warning Nations.

Wash ugton, Oct. S-Secretary Bryan has sent to Ambassadors in the capi- tals of all the warning countries of Europe a message telling of Presi- dent Wilson's day of prayer for peace. and the seriousness and sincerity with which the people of the United States responded to it. Widespread favorable comment in the European press over the presidents action prompted the sending of the message, which will be communicated to the foreign offices in London, Paris, Berlin, Petrograd. Tokio, Vienna and Antwerp. The message fol- lows:
 'In obedience to the proclamation of the president. the people of the United States assembled at their places of worship on October fourth and joined in prayer for the restoration of peace in Europe. The attendance was very large and there was everywhere a spirit of earnestness. Care was taken that nothing should be said of a non- neutral nature, the trend of the speeches being that God might so di- rect those in authority in the belliger- ent nations as to hasten the restora- tion of peace and that the American people might be wisely guided in the exercise of such influence as they might be able to exert

BELGIAN ARMY IS
 MAKING LAST STAND
Behind Forts at Antwerp--one of the Strongest Fortified Positions in the
 World.

London, Oct. s, 10 p. m.-WhiIe the immense armies of the belligerent powers of Europe are engaged in death struggles along lines hundreds of miles
 in extent in battles which for the numbers engaged, fierceness and stub bornness have no precedent in history, the intrepid little army of Belgium is making a last stand behind the forts of Antwerp, one of the strongest for tified positions in the world.
 For the moment at least, the strug- gle around the chief port of Belgium attracts the. most attention, for the result of the engagement there must have a considerable effect on the big ger battle between the Anglo-French and German forces. which now extends from the Swiss frontier right across France, almost to the North sea.
 The Germans who, while attempting to get across the river Scheldt, south west of the city, made their main at tack from the east, succeeded some days ago by the aid of their big Is inch guns in breaking through the first line of forts. Between the first and second belt of forts, according to their own accounts. they defeated the Belgian army and captured number of guns.
 Last night shells began to fall in the city itself and, from reports com ing through Holland, the railway sta- tions. the palace of justice and several oil tanks have been damaged. At the same time six Zeppelin dirigible bal looms flew over the city, dropping bombs, but it has been impossible as yet to ascertain the damage they have done
 King Albert has called on all men of military age to assist in the defense of the city. Thousands of others, wo- men. children, and old men, have hur- riedly left Antwerp. Among the few non-belligerents remaining are the American consul-general, Henry W. Dietrich, and his staff.
 The towns of Holland are already crowded with refugees. The mayor of Rotterdam has sent out a warning that there is no more room there for the harassed Belgians and the steam CTS for England are crowded with people fleeing from the German shells.
Norwich bulletin., 1914-10-09

That the Germans are still vigorously bombarding Antwerp with their heavy siege guns from three positions. and that great bombarding already has ful city is the outstanding feature of the war news.
 Situation in France.
 On the battle line in northern France, where the contending armies are burrowed deeply in entrenchments, the French official report says the sit uation is stationary, except that there have been several violent encounters between the allies and the Germans, notably in the vicinity of Roe, in the department of Somme. No claims of successes or accumulatfons of defeat are made in the report.
 Bombardment of Antwerp.
 Ant Antwerp so violent has been the concussion caused by the detonations of big German guns that houses 20 miles away were shaken. King Al bert, at the head of a portion of the Belgian army, is reported to have marched out of the besieged city, from which the populace in hundreds previ- ously had fled in panic.
 Among the few neutrals remaining in the city. where not alone shells from the guns of the Germans. but bombs from their aircraft are falling is H. ". Diederich. the American con- sul. and the members of his staff.N
 Affairs in Russian Poland.
 In the east the Russians claim to have repuised with heavy e1Sses Ger man attacks near Wirballen ard Philli- poff, Russian Poland. They declare also that some of the principal forts of PrZemysl. in Galicia, have been talk en by the forces of Emperor Nicholas and that the Germans have been driven out of Wloclawek, in Poland, across the border from the fortress of Thorn, East Prussia.
 From the south came a report from Cettinje that the Servians had defeat ed the Auetrians and occupied Bilek, Herzegovina.
 Russia is said to have refused to withdraw her troops from northwest Persia. but at he same time advised Persia that she had no intentions to take Persian territory.
