FRANCE TAKING EVERY
MILITARY PROBATION

Paris, July so.-Every military prep
aration. short of mobilization has now
been made in France. The principal
railroad stations and all the signal
boxes and switches were-today guard
ed by troops.
Rumors of the widest nature were
in circulation to the effect that Pres
ideat Poincare. after an all-night
council of war, had decided to call
up 100000 men of the French army
reserves. A strongly worded official
denial of this was issued, together
with assurances that drastic measures
would be taken against those spread
ing such reports. The government is
working in close cooperation with the
principal newspapers to re-assure the
public.
AT the same time a veil is being kept
over military operations as during the
war in 1870 the Germans are said to
have obtained a great advantage from
the information printed in the Freich
press.

RECORD RATE WAR
RISK INSURANCE

New York, July 30.-Brisk buying
of war risk insurance covering gold
exports continued today at the record
rate, set yesterday of $4,000 per ST.
100000 of gold insured, and even at
these figures some of the underwrit-
ers refused to take any more risks
for shipments on the steamship st.
Louis, which will sail tomorrow with

Marine insurance companies have
already written so much insurance on
gold in transit that they hesitated to
take more. The, feeling prevailed that
the insurance companies faced today
a situation where it might become diff
ficult for them to pay losses under
adverse circumstances.
Writers of other classes of insur-
ance, attracted by the high rates, Of
fered to insure gold shipments for
bankers. In some cases these offers
were accepted.
