New York, Aug. s.-Reports in

mails. The committee which was an

The special committee of five will

stated, ample notice will be given Of

Inc statement was made primarily

Washington, Aug. s.-Confronted
with the problem Of disposing of the
country's enormous grain and cotton
crops, the administration today made
plane for conference In Washington
next week of representatives of the
leading shipping interests and for
eign bankers
The bankers have been asked to
come to Washington to formulate
plans for the resumption of the in
ternational exchange market and re-
store the use of international bills Of
exchange. The shipping men will be
asked to move American grain and
cotton to the European markets
which have taken them so literally
In the past
In announcing the conference call
Secretary McAdoo said:
ut is Of vital Importance to the
country that two things be done as
quickly as possible: first. provide ships
to European markets: the second, re-
store through the bankers the market
for foreign bills of exchange.
Grain is a very pressing problem
at the moment because the crops
have been largely harvested and the
movement is already we'll under way.
The cotton movement Is not SO ad
vanced and Will not, be for a. few
weeks. 1t is my purpose to invite a
conference on the subject of cotton
to be held at an early date. of which
announcement will be made later.
These are important questions for the
American people and every possible
effort will be made by the administra-
ton tc cooperate in the movement of
these great crops"

BUSINESS TAKES
SHOCK OF WAR
Have Absorbed First Effect
of European Crisis Quite
Successfully.

New York. Aug. s.-Bradstreets
says today: The American business
world has spent the week in absorb
ing the shock of tine precipitation of
the European war, and pending the
taking of necessary precautions, ac-
tivity has been curtailed to lowest
limits. This is especially true of op-
erations in large financial and COM
mercial lines and considering the new
and, varied steps that have had to be
taken, the progress made has been in
a high degree gratifying.
Repression has been widely in evil
dence but absolute stagnation has
been largely in export and import
trade. Congestion Of wheat at the
ports, consequent upon the partial
stoppage of shipping trade and the
dislocation Of the exchange market,
has reacted back upon the railroads
and thence to the western farmers,
and the movement is slowing down.
There has been a general rise in
prices of nearly all staples where open
markets exist with marked effect not
ed on all lines of imported goods,
which are generally held higher. Food
stuffs and imported textile products
are strong. The wheat and domestic
food stuffs markets generally have
moved higher. but lack of outlet and
the uncertainty of the situation abroad
checks free buying of staples that for
eigners need.
There is feeling that dom estic
manufacturers will have fall trade
more to Themselves than appeared
possible a, short while ago.

GERMAN APPEAL
I. 7 TO italy Vain
Direct Request of President
Emanuel Fails to Change
Position.

Rome. via Paris Aug. s.-The Ger
man government is using its utmost
efforts to bring about a change in
Italy's attitude in the present Euro
pean situation. Direct appeals have
been made to King Victor Emmanuel,
but all in vain. 1t is asserted that
Italy, having declared her neutrality,
intends to maintain it.
1taly's position as a member Of the
triple alliance and therefore an ally
OF Germany. under certain conditions,
has been discussed in every phase,
and the general consensus Of opinion
seems to be that the Italian people
would never permit an act of hostil-
ity against France and Great Britain.
Because Italy is neutral. all mani
festations for or against the belli-
gerents are being vigorously repressed
Yet everywhere spontaneous out
bursts Of enthusiasm for France have
occurred. In Rome there have. been
frequent cries Of long live France!
Long live our Latin brothers!" and
the Marseillaise Is being sung in the
streets.
The French embassy here and the
French consulate in other cities of
Italy are daily receiving offers from
men who, wish to join the French
forces.
