ARMY IMMERSED IN
SEA OF SILENCE
None But Highest British Officers
Knows Word Of What
Is Afoot.

Boulogne.-The silence of this war
is wonderful. Every English trooper
here talks about it. They say:
do you know that our wives have
no idea of where we are? We did
not know ourselves where we were
going. The first thing we knew was
when an officer who came along with
us on the train to Southampton shout
ed: No noise there; don't you know
you're on active serviceY
When we got to the transports
we might have been going to Borneo
for all we knew. The skipper did not
know the port he was bound for until
the transport was twenty miles out.
I'VE must not write letters or any
thing except postcard to say that
we are well or that we are in a hos
pital, and there will be no postmark
on that"
The officers are immersed in the
same sea of silence as the men. Only
those of the highest rank know what
is afoot. None of them can tell where
they are going, nor would they tell
II they knew, but say the action OF
the Government is quite right.
The suppression Of English papers
has been one of the features. Gus
toms officers board all incoming ships
and quietly capture every newspaper

Allied Armies Battle With German
AlonQ TWenty-MiIe Line,

Allied Armies Battle With Germans
Along Twenty-MiIe Line.
London.-After nearly three weeks
of mobilizing the battle of giants has
begun.
Roughly speaking the Germans are
trying to work around the allies flank
tempting to apply the same process
to the Germans in Alsace.
Almost all the encounters that have
gone before have been mere recon.
instances. The defeat of regiment
here and there has been proclaimed
as a great victory but in this grapple
of hundreds of thousands most OF
these affairs have had no significance
Official announcements from both
sides have been extremely candid Sc
far. From the standpoint of the allie.
the important feature in Saturdays
developments is the great battlA
which began in the morning on the
Namur-C harleroi line. This is being
fought on the position chosen by tho
allies.
A German official statement say,
that troops under command Of thu
Crown Prince of Bavaria, fighting be,
tween Metz and Vosges, took 10000
prisoners and so guns. 1t adds that
the French troops opposing the Ger
mans comprised eight army corps.
An official British statement ex
plains calmly that nothing resembling
a great battle has been fought as yet
and warns the people against Opt
paism,

FOREIGN SHIPS
ARE LET in
Registry Bill Excludes Them
From CoastWise Trade
HOUSE PLAN WINS OUT
President Authorized to Suspend Nav
igation Laws Requiring Officers OF
Ships to Be American Citizens
Remove Swear Restriction

Washington.-The Senate-amended
registry bill, containing the provision
allowing foreign-built vessels to en-
gage in coastwise trade was defeated
in the Senate by vote of 40 to 20.
By the same vote the House bill was
adopted, thereby opening the way to
American registry of foreign vessels
for operation in the transatlantic
trade.
This bill makes it possible to admit
foreign vessels to American registry
and thus provide an outlet for Amer1-
can grain and other products now pre-
vented, through a lack of ships, from
reaching the markets OF Europe.
The bill enacts into law the Admin
istration plan to restore the transat-
lantic trade paralyzed by the Euro
pean war. 1t is also designed to
enlarge the American merchant ma
rine. Already the Hamburg-American
line has received proposals for the
purchase of certain of its vessels now
in American waters, and the North
German Lloyd Line has announced
that it will sell some of it's ships. AID
ministration officials expect to see
many foreign-bui.t ships come undel
the American flag soon after Pres1.
dent Wilson signs the bill.
Under the terms of the House bill
the foreign built ships admitted to
registry in the United States will not
be entitled to enter the coastwise
trade of the United States. The House
bill which is the one that will be
enacted, amends the Panama CanaI
act which admits to registry foreign
ships that have been built within five
years. The bill accepted removes the
five year restriction and will admit
all foreign built ships to American
registry for the oversee trade.
The House bill also authorizes the
President in his discretion when the
| need of domestic commerce in his
! judgment require it, to suspend the
navigation laws Of the United States
| in SO far as they require the officers
| of the foreign built ships shall be
| American citizens and to waive the re-
| quirements for survey, measurement
and inspection by American officers.
The bill as it was presented by
Senator O'Gorman from the confer
ence committee was rejected 40 to
20. Immediately the New York Sen
ator moved to instruct the Senate
conferees to recede from the Senate
amendments which the Senate had
just disapproved and to concur in the
House bill.

ENGLAND is SOUNDED,
Informal Overtures Made Regarding
Purchase of German Ships.

Informal Overtures Made Regarding
Purchase of German Ships.
Washington.-Tle British Govern.
ment has been unoffi~ ALLY sounded by
the State Department with Wow to
eliciting some information as to the
attitude of the allies toward the trans
fer of foreign ships to American
registry. Thus far no details of he
representations Informally express I'd
by this Government are obtainable.
The Treasury Department disclaimed
having made any such representa-
lions, while at the Sta Department,
it was said that no reply Of a formal
character had been received from the
British Foreign Office
The impression prevails that the
Hamburg-American Line was the one
most likely to be involved in a trans
fer to the American flag. Officials
of the State Department said that
inquiries had been made with respect
to another system of ships. One Off
cial insisted that it was not with re-
gard to the Hamburg-American ships
that the interchange of questions had
taken place.

The city was bedecked in gala

Although the enthusiasm knew no
bounds there was little disorder
Upon arriving at the National Pal
ace, General Carranza reviewed the
army from the balcony and made a
brief speech to the dense crowd fill
ing the Plaza de la Constitution.
The First Chief declared the
agrarian and other reforms for which
the revolutionists had fought would
be put into effect as soon as possible

era of peace and prosperity for Mex
leo under regime where every citi

Tokio.-The Emperor of Japan has
declared war on Germany. This act
ion was taken at the expiration of the
time limit Of Japan's ultimatum to
Germany demanding the surrender OF
Kiao-Chow. The Japan Government
has ordered the beginning of opera
lions on land and sea.
The Imperial rescript declaring war
On Germany was issued in the evening.
1t officially inaugurates hostilities in
the Far East as result of Germany's
failure to reply to the Japaneses ultt-
matum.
The proclamation of the Emperor
sent a thrill through the country.
Japan's entrance upon the fulf1llment
of her obligations to her ally, Great
Britain, responds to the popular will
from one end of the land to the other.
Cheering crowds assembled before
public buildings and at night there
were lantern professions through the
streets The popular manifestations,
however, do not approach the enthu-
siasm which preceded the wah with
Russia.

The Austrian cruiser Kaiserin Eliza

believed this action will keep Austria
out of the war in the Orient, although
unforeseen circumstances may force
Japan to change this policy. No action
has been taken relative to Austria and
the Foreign Office has explained that
Japan will remain friendly until Aus
tria adopts an attitude which it re-
CARDS as offensive.

has been trying to transfer the Ger

That's All General Huerta Would Say
About War in Europe.
London.-General Victoriaao Huer-
ia, erstwhile dictator of Mexico, was
asked what he thought Of the Euro
pean war. He called for pen and
paper, and wrote:
"On the present war in Europe
should not speak. All that can be
said is what l have already said in
the book of lady, which is as fol-
lows:
God is always with the strongest
that is to say, the strongest is al
ways in the grace of God 1t is for
this that one is the strongest"
When asked to speak regarding tho
Mexican situation, Gen. Huerta closed
his lips tightly and made the sign OF
the cross, as if putting the seal on.
He said in English: Excuse me;
nothing"
Gen. Huerta has not visited the
Mexican Legation, and he has had
few callers. If he has wealth, neither
the dress nor the scale Of living Of
his party indicates it.

M'REYNOLDS GOES TO
SUPREME COURT
Attorney General Is Succeeded by
Texan, T. w. Gregory.

Washington.-The nomination of
James c.. McReynolds, Attorney-Gen-
eral of the United States, to the SUI
preme Court to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the death of Associate Justice
Lurton was sent to the Senate
Thomas Watt Gregory of Texas, who
for the last year has been employed
as a special assistant Attorney-Gen-
eral in charge of the New Haven
case, was chosen as the successor to
Mr.. McReynolds in President Wilson's
Cabinet.
The elevation of Mr.. McReynolds to
the Supreme bench marks the first
break in the Presidents official family
in the year and a half of its life.
There has been no doubt ever since
the death of Justice Lurton but that
Mr.. McReynolds could have the place
on the bench if he wanted it. There
was good deal of doubt, however,
that Mr.. McReynolds would care to
give up the Cabinet place and the
many plans he had mapped out for
the conduct of that office. 1t was
only a few days ago that he finally
made up his mind to leave the Cabinet
and accept the appointment
Mr.. Gregory, the new Attorney-Gen-
eral, is SO years old. He is supposed
to have had the strong backing of Col.
e. M. House, the Presidents friend
from Texas and New York.
Mr.. Gregory was graduated from
Southwestern Presbyterian UNIVERSE
ty at Clarksville, Tenn, in 1883. He
was a special student at the Univer
sity of Virginia and took his degree
Of bachelor of law at the University OF
