Washington Tells Local
Relief Committee
Crisis Is Over.

After a conference in Washington
yesterday with the Secretaries of War,
State and Navy, w. H. Hamilton, rep
resentative of the Mayors committee
appointed to care for Americans
stranded abroad, sent word to the
chairman here that the situation was
clearing up rapidly and that there
probably would be no need for the
chartering of transports or additional
vessels. In his report Mr.. Hamilton
said in part:
"The American embassies in Ger
many, Austria and Russia are charter
ing small ships for the purpose OF
carving Americans in those countries.
The general plan will be to concen-
trate the Americans at the seaports
and move toward London. 1t is ex-
pected that the prospective sailing OF
the neutral lines will quickly relieve
the present congestion. Arrangements
are also completed for the easy and
quick handling Of funds by the gov
eminent. The government is eager
TO cooperate with the Mayors com
mittee. and it is expected that deh-
mite plans can be worked out shortly"
Anxiety for Mrs. Preston, formerly
Mrs. Grover Cleveland, was relieved
Yesterday when word was received that
she was safe at st. Moritz, SwitZer-
land. DR.. Paul Ritter, the Swiss MIN
lister at Washington, now at the
Biltmore Hotel, in answer TO an IN
ouirv. received cable message yes
terday saving that all Americans in
Switzerland were safe, and that there
was no need of alarm. Paul LAGER,
a member OF the firm of =. lselin
Co. bankers, of 80 Wall St, received
a similar message from Switzerland.
The State Department was asked
Yesterday to render all assistance pos
sible in an effort to locate William h.
Black. who was Commissioner OF Ac-
counts under Mayor Mcclellan. He is
in France, and his friends fear he is
in trouble. Since he left here four
weeks ago no one has heard from him.
He went TO Europe 10 complete a
"world's guide" for an association, and
since he carried with him many maps
and probably made some after he ar
rived in Europe, il is feared they have
cast suspicion on him.
Contributions received yesterday by
Jacob II. Schif, treasurer of the New
York State Board of the American
Red Cross, for the European fund
were as follows;

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Secret Of the Aerodromon,

The Secret Of the Aerodromone.
The newly made Princess Of Schom-
burg Lithow and her fiance. Santos,
reached Berlin safely. They flew In
the Hawk to Irl1utsk in Asiatic Russia
and from there continued their jour-
ney On the quick aeroline to the Ger,
man capital. They sent the aerodro.
none back to Ciryne
The Rosiny mansion was ready for
them. Rositta's first action was to
send word to tho Count Won Werden-
stein that she wanted to see him.
When the chancellor came, Rositta
received him alone. 1t was necessary
for her to explain the situation. The
Count Rosiny was dead. He had been
on board the Tar that Napoleon had
sunk. This freed Rositta, but as
princess she could not marry a plain
citizen, so she asked the count to
make Mr.. Duprel titled nobleman.
Rositta told all she thought necessary.
and they talked for long time.
Santos was told the plans without
the slightest idea that 1t was a tre-
mendous, far-reaching plot designed to
destroy all the achievements of the
peace committee. He could see moth
ing but Rositta, he could think Of moth
ing but their approaching marriage.
The purpose the chancellor and Ro-
sitta had in mind, was to manufacture
and equip a number Of aerodromones.
II they pursued this desire. they would
have, inside of year. the power to
master the situation and take the lead
in political affairs.
Suemeg now belonged to Rositta and
