Await Official Statements.
Copenhagen, via London. Aug. 15.-
The Berliner Tageblatt Of Aug. IL,
which reached here today. contains q
manifesto to the German nation by
General Stein of the German general
staff, in which the public Is cautioned
cept those given out by the general
staff.
in England and France falsehoods
are being spread broadcast. You Ger
mans have too much faith in your gov
ernment to accept rumors too easily.
'The English accuse US Of having
accepted partition with Holland in ex-
change for her neutrality. Such charges
are beneath contempt and demonstrate
the righteousness Of our cause and
the wickedness Of our enemies.
"You Germans also are spreading
rumors Of victories and defeats, such
as the German occupation OF Belfort
and the destruction Of the French
regiment, wholesale.
Everything will be published at the
proper time, and we have given our
word that nothing will be exaggerated
and nothing minimized.
Few except those who are experi-
enced in warfare can know or show
with what difficulties victories are
won."
Another Berlin paper declares Great
Britain Is paralyzing American dip
lomatic relations by preventing the
American ambassador sending dis.
patches In cipher.

Washington. Aug. 15.-Americans
may now leave Germany as rapidly as

Gerard, at Berlin. reported to the state
department via Copenhagen today by
cable.
Archer NJ. Huntington. Of New York,
president of the National Geographic
Society, and his family, We're not ar
rested, but have been enjoying the full
est liberties at Nuremberg, Germany
according to a message to the state de-
partment today from the German for
eign office.
The German government explained
that the automobile owned by the
Huntington family had been requisi-
toned, and that the chauffeur, Brit
ish subject, had been held for n short
time, but was released, and that all
were in Nuremberg now, safe and well.
The American charge d'affaircs at st.
Petersburg reported that nearly all the
Americans had left and that others
were leaving daily.
Ambassador Gerrards cable was
very brief. giving no details, and was
confined to the announcement that
Americans might leave as fast as train
service was restored. Officials assumed
it signalized the completion of the
mobilization Of the German army.
Germany will permit the cruiser
Tennessee. bearing gold for Americans
entering Bremen, and will provide
trains to bring Americans from the
baths and resorts in the south to that
port. This government was SO advised
today.

the direction of Governor Goethals and
his staff Except in cases of absolute
necessity vessels of belligerents must

apply to the terminal waters on both
ends Of the canal, within limit OF

Limiting Warships.
Twenty hours is the limit oi
time belligerent vessel can remain ir
the canal. excepting in cases of dis
tress, and vessels Of war of one bellig-
erent can not depart within twenty
four hours within the departure of an
other vessel of war of another belliger-
ent. All OF the plant and establishment

yigilant American pilots will see
that no foreign vessels make observa-

The principal work remaining to be
done in completing the canal is the
deepening and widening of the chan
mel thru Culebra cut. as well as exca-
waiting operations on both approaches.

Rome, Aug. IA. via Paris. Aug. 10
The excitement in the Italian capital
has become very acute since the exist
encs of the state Of war between Eng
land and France on one side and Aus
tria- Hungary on the other was de-
declared. The Tribuna, in an article
evidently inspired in official quarters.
emphasized the fact that Great Britain
and France did not really declare war
on Austria but simply announced that
a state of war existed by reason of
Austria's own acts. and that therefor e
Italy is not obliged to assist Austria
Hungary.
The most active work is now going
on among the governments Of tho vari-
Gus Balkan states to bring about the
reconstruction Of the former Balkan
league which defeated Turkey in the
recent war. The object Of the move
ment is to assist Russia against AUS
tria-Hungary and to keep Turkey in
active.

q Japanese occupations of the German
leased territory In China with It's an
ncxation as logical result.
Since China requested the United
States to exert pressure in it's behalf
upon the beligerent European powers
for the preservation of Cnina's integri-
ty and neutrality, the state department
has been giving close attention to the
far eastern situation.
At Mercy Of Japan.
The European war placed the Ger
man leased territory in China at the
mercy of her enemies. 1t was not eS-
.pected here that the Japanese govern
ment will resist the temptation t" give
the slight shake to the tree that would
bring this ripe apple into its lap. The
-utterances Of Japanese statesmen inn
mediately after the outbreak of hostil-
tiles in Europe confirmed this opinion.
But for the last few days there has
been an ominous silence from Japan.
U. S. Can Do Nothing? >
Today's report shows that it is the
silence before the storm. Whether the
United States can do anything to avert
CIlaI STORM SeelllS EoiLiSC lAiio
question has been under discussion here
1t is said that the United States would
probably not request the European
powers to agree to absolute neutrality
in China. but would conflne its efforts
to the more practical basis of asking
neutrality for the treaty ports and it's
maintenance Of the status quo in China
after the end of the war. The leased
territories of the European govern
ments would be left as prizes for the
belligerents. This is the highest hope
of the United States.
What is most feared is that Japan
may seize upon some pretext. as for in
stance Chinese opposition to her OPP
era+ions, and demand further conces-
sionary or territorial rights in China
proper.
We Can't Stand Idle.
Unquestionably the addition Of Jap
an to the war will <complicate the stu
alton further for the United States.
American interests in China are i'm
portant and the United States can
hardly afford to let Japan play ducks
and brakes with China without protest
