ITALY BUYS $4,000 HORSES
Largest Similar Contract Ever Signed

Especial to The Times Dispatch.I
NEW YORK. December 5.-The
largest single contract probably ever
signed In the United States for the
purchase Of horses WAS made in this
city to-day. on account of the Euro
pean war. 1t calls for the delivery
within short time of $4,000 perfectly
sound young animals, broken to hor-
ness or saddle. at n price said TO be
between 5000 and $3.50 each, The
horses will be used for artillery and
cavalry service. The amount OF the
contract is between 100000 and &c.
100000.
The remarkable fact of the contract
is that the horses are not bought for
one of the powers actually at war.
The order comes from representatives
of the Italian government. 1t lis adj
mitted that the horses arc for the ar
til1ery and cavalry. The fact gives
peculiar Significance to the reported
complete mobilization of the Italian
army, and the rumor that Italy will
hc prepared TO enter the war before
the end OF this month.
The contract was negotiated between
representatives. of the Italian govern
mcnt, who came OYER expressly for
that purpose. and local company
which Will begin at once the work of
gathering the horses for shipment

Observers Arc of Opinion That Move

Strong Pressure to Prevent Italy
From Joining Allies.

Huelow, former Chancellor OF thee Ger
man empire. had been placed ut tho
head of the German. embassy here
while tho present ambassador, Herr
Won Flotow, is to he absent for three
months on account of his health has
aroused much comment In Rome.
Although. this move has been re-
ported as probable for. some time, IL
may be said to- have produced n con-
siderable sensation II lis remarkable
that n former Chancellor should become
the head of an embassy. (which Is by
10 means considered the most I'm
portant In the German, diplomatic
service. Az itt Z,
Tie appointment was discussed with
animation In Italian political circles
to-day. Some statesmen declared IL to
be. Germany's answer to the declara-
ton OF .Prcmier' Snlandra to the Italian
Parliament on. Tbursdayp'that there was
no vclamsc in any treaty. binding Italy
to participate with the Teuton allies
In the. present conflict. and that Italy
would m aintain her. present attitude Of
watchful ando armed ncutrality; while
others recalled that@Prince Won Buelow
had bccn:mo popular in Rome, since
lie was ambassador to tho Quirinal
'twenty''iyears ago. and that his wife
belongs to a very prominent Italian
family.
Many observers are of the opinion
that the appointment OF Prince Won
Buelow to- this post means that Berlin
Is about to exercise strong pressure
to prevent Italy from passing to the
side OF the allies.
