inquiries through its ambassadors

mediation In Europe. The cautious
inquiries of the past week. however.
did not amount to an actual tender Of

GARROS RAMS HUGE
ZEPPELIN INVADER
Sends His MonopIane Crashing
Into Hostile Craft and Dies
With Foes.

LONDON, Aug. "A new chap
ter in warfare has been written to-
day in actual battles between air
craft high above the earth.
in the first engagement between
one of Germany's famous Zeppelin
dirigibles and a French aeroplane,
both were DESTROYED. The first air
battle in the history of the world
was fought at Longwy. In this fight
a German and French aviator met
in midair, a dispatch to the Stand
ard declares. The Frenchman flew
high over his German adversary, fired
down upon him and sent his machine
crashing to the earth from a height
of 800 feet. The German WAS killed.
The most unique and one of the
most thrilling fights in history oc-
CURED when Roland Garros, famous
French aviator, met German
Zeppelin on the frontier.
Darling about the huge airship,
Garros piloted his monoplane into
position as the dirigible steadily
bore down on him. Then he drove
full speed toward the German craft,
rammed it and sent it plunging to
earth. Early reports failed to state
whether Garros had escaped, but
later dispatches declare the French
man was killed. His own machine
was wrecked and fell with the Zep-
pelin.
French a,iators are engaged in
scout duty all along the border.
Near Vessel, one French airman is
to have been picked of by
German troops and killed. French
aeroplanes have been sighted from
many points in the Rhine provinces.
A great fleet of the air-fighting ma
chimes is already at Nancy, near
the German border.

FRANCE TAKES LEAD
CALLING MEN HOME
Many Reseryists From Wash
ington to Sail on La Lorraine
Wednesday.

France has taken, the lead in pro-
viding for the return of reservists in
this country to join the colors for war
In Europe. according to information
which reached the French embassy in
this city today. The steamer La Lor-
raine is to sail from New York We'd
nesday. a telegram from the agent of
the line stated. She will be crowded
to her utmost capacity by Frenchmen,
responding to the call of their country.
Included in the list will be a num-
Der from Washington, whose names
were withheld by II. A. Bergeron,
temporarily in charge here, until the
arrival of NJ. Clause, the chancellor OF
the embassy. A number of reservists
have been registering at the embassy
today, however, and the present force
is deluged with work. One of the most
picturesque of the returning veterans
is Jacques Freiss. who has been a resi-
dent of this city for some years past.
Letters and kilograms were received
this morning from Manchester. but no
reference was made to prospective re-
turn to Washington on the part of the
embassy staff Mr.. Bergeron has tele-
graphed for information. as well as
help, and expects to be advised within
the next few hours. 1t was under IN
structions from the chancellor that he
issued the formal call for reservists 10
return to France without DELAY.
At other embassies and legations ig-
norance was protested as to any Off
cial recall to arms of citizens Of the
respective countries living in WASH
ington and vicinity. At the German
embassy 1t was said that any such
order would come through John B.
Larner. the consular agent here. At
Mr.. Larner's office no such order had
been received. il was said.
At the British embassy preparations
are under way for receiving the en-
bassy staff. following the announce
ment of Corville Barclay. charge de-
affaires that they would leave Man
chester for Washington today. At other
embassies and legations there was a
surprising lack of information as to
when the officials might be expected
to return. Ambassador Jusserand is
now in France; Won Bernstorff is in
Germany, and 1t is understood that Am
bassador Spring-Rice is in England.
The Austrian embassy is summering
at Manchester. and those of Russia and
Germany at Newport. 1t Is understood
that even should the Russian embassy
staff return to Washington, Ambassa-
dor Bakhmeteff will remain in Newport
for a time at least.

Build Up U. S. Merchant
Marine, Dewey Advises

NEW YORK, Aug. 3-The European
war crisis opens the way for a great
merchant marine under the United States

ing officer of the American navy, who
Is stopping at the Oriental Hotel. Man.
haitian Beach. for the summer.
Now is the opportunity" said the
admiral. IF Congress acts, for the
United States to have its share in the
carrying trade Of the world. I thor
oughly approve the proposal of the
President to have the ship navigation
eisn build may come under the Ameri-
can flag. The present statutes are
very severe, and some modification Of
them would undoubtedly be necessary.
In recent years this country has had
practically no merchant marine. Its
transatlantic steamers have been con-
fined to such vessels as the st. Louis
and the st. Paul There are coasting
vessels, to be sure. II the opportunity
Cpens for this country to obtain ocean
carrying trade. there are thousands
of well-trained and vigorous Americans
who could man the steamships. There
has not been enough inducement lately
for them to join the merchant marine.
With a change in the law, I have no
doubt there will be a great increase in
our carrying trade, and that many YES
sells will soon be unuer the Stars and
Stripes.
'NOne who follows American history
cannot but be impressed with the fact
that this country is in the hands of
God. We are in the present situation
free from foreign entanglements. At
this time our granaries are filed with
one Of the greatest crops on record.
The United States has before it the
to re-establish her once
great mercantile marine. II is an op-
portunity which should be grssped."

International money orders and notified
all postmasters to issue foreign ordersi
promptly where they were desired to aid
Americans, who are now abroad, in re-
turning to this country, limiting tile

AT the same time. however, Third As
sistant Postmaster General Dockery was
directed to notify postmasters that they
must continue to decline to issue money
orders for unusually large sums. and
where there Is reason to believe they are
desired for speculative purposes.
Orders of this character were sent
out Saturday. but the breakdown OF
European exchanges became so wide
spread over Sunday and American
travellers abroad were left in such
straits by failure to cash checks and
drafts. that Saturday order was
amended so as to provide passage
money for travellers.
