FUNSTON SEEKS DELAY
Wants Troops Kept in Vera
Cruz Until October 10.

Vera Cruz, Sept. 1G.-American forces
will not be withdrawn from Vera Cruz
before October 10, if the War Depart
ment at Washington accepts the sug-
gestion of General Funston. He rec
commended to-day that the steps incl
dent to the evacuation of the city be
taken with all deliberation and with
out undue haste.
Perhaps the chief consideration of
General Funston in recommending this
date is believed TO have been a desire
to give the thousands of Mexican refu-
gees here an opportunity to leave the
country. About 500 priests, 200 nuns,
dozen generals of the old army and
scores of officers of lower rank are
among those who sought safety within
the American lines.
Many cable dispatches have been
sent by MeXicanS and Americans, either
directly to United States government
officials or to friends at Washington,
begging them to intercede with the
President not to insist upon too
hasty removal of the troops.

/ held at the Ballplatz, influenced, nc
doubt, the course of events, and it is
deplorable that no effort should have
been made 10 secure by means of dip
lomatic negotiations the acquiescence
of Russia and Europe as a whole in
some peaceful compromise of the Ser
Wan question, by which Austrian fears
of Servian aggression and intrigue
might have been removed for the fut-
ure.
Instead of adopting this course, the
Austro- Hungarian government resolved
upon war. The inevitable consequence
ensued Russia replied to a partial
Austrian mobilization and declaration
of war against Servia by partial Rus
sian mobilization against Austria. Aus
tria met this move by completing her
own mobilization, and Russia again re-
sponded with actions which have passed
into history"
Sir Maurice saw Count Berchtold on
July % and urged that the scheme Ct
mediation mentioned IN Sir Edward
Grey's speech in the House of Com

Count Berchtold said that matters had
gone too far. Austria was that day
declaring war on Servia. His eXcellen-
cy said he, too, was keeping the Euro

would have no right TO intervene after

Bankers for the National Railways
of Mexico stated yesterday that they
would not make representations to the
State Department at Washington con-
corning the reported contiscation of the
company's lines by the Carranza gov

This commission is making an in
vestigation of the railroad situation
in Mexico, it was said, with the pur-
pose of determining the future rela-
tionship of the government with the
railway lines. The National Railways
has an interest payment of s1,5O0,0O0
falling due on October l for which no
provision has been made. No fund:

10000 AMERICANS
REMAIN IN EUROPE
Breckenridge, Back in Lon
don, Says All Can
Get Home Easily.
IBy Cable to The Tribune. J

London, Sept. l6.-Ihat the grsatest
conflict of all .imes almost halted, SO
that no harm should befall American
citizens in Europe, is he purport OF
statements made here to-day by henry
S. Breckenridge, American Assistant
Secretary of War, on his return from a
visit. TO European capitals t. distribute
the armored cruiser TenLessee's gOlu
IN stranded Americans. There are now
onlv COCO Americans who want to re-
turn homeward left on the Continent
he, said, and all can find their way to
transatlantic ports without great DIFF
fcIIlty, Of course, IN. number does
not include thousands who have de-
cided to continue living in Europe ne-
spite the war.
"For instance" Mr.. Breckenridge te-
marked, 81 estimate that in Switzer-
land alone there are 1000 Americans
who expect to remain indefinitely, out
il is impossible to ascertain the total
number now in European countries.
don't believe that Americans anywhere
o. at any time were subjected to serl-
Gus Inconvenience, and stories about
suffering in individual cases were gen
orally exaggerated. Some of our coun-
trymen did not seem % realize what
war meant. Really they should be
grateful! to all the countries involved
for the kindly treatment accorded
them by the nations actually battling
for existence"
Mr.. Breckenridge said that more than
enough exits from Europe were ,pen
to Americans. In Italy, for instance,
there was more shipping to America
than people to go, and liners were leav-
ing The ports frequently with accom-
modations untitled. Mr.. Rreckiuridge
went to Vienna from Berlin and then
TO Budapest, Switzerland and Paris,
leaving American officers behind in
charge of depots TO continue distrib-
uting gold and to handle other relief
work. He found efficient local Ameri-
can committees in Berlin and Paris,
but not elsewhere.
The Tennessee, which brought Mr..
Breckenridge from Havre to Weymouth,
is now coaling and being overhauled.
Mr., Breekinridge's plans are uncer-
tain. lie cRbled the War Department
to-day that there was no necessity for
him to remain longer on this side, but
has received o reply yet.
Mr.. Breckenridge believes that the
H,500,00O set aside for the relief of
Americans in Europe will suffice, as he
thinks their government ought not to
be expected to care for Americans who
duly warned and given an opportunity
TO leave at the expense Of the govern
ment.

FROM SANTO DOMINGO

Mr.. M l. Berry was a caller al
this Office on Wednesday morning
He and his wife recently returned
from ssanto Domingo, via New
York City. After landing in this
country they visited Niagara
Falls, Chicago, and other points
of interest, before coming south.
Mr.. Berry told US some very in
teresting things about the "dark''
island Of the Caribbean sea. The
climate IL delightful and nights
cool. HEALTH generally good
rhe fertility Of the soil is great
Nature has done almost all things
calculated to make the place an
eden. But tho people! Their
principal occupation, amusement
and pastime ls perennial war.
he was an eyewitness Of battle,
which lasted quite-two and a half
hours, and in all that fighting the
casualties summed up, one killed
and one wounded. It seems to be
a very ipnocen5 form Of amuse
ment 50 far as human life IL con-
cerBed once yon understand the
game. War, itself, il not to be so
much dreaded as the foraging and
petty lbieving of the soldiers
They must be maintained, and az
the individual soldier has to do
this for himself, he becomes an ar.
fist in this branch of the work
He will svipe y0nr clothing o.
shoes the instant your back il
Turned ard the next instant he il
back in line with his command
where he cannot be pursued.
Tie sugar cane never quits
growing there. When the rainy
season sets in sugar making
ceases II any cane is left stand
ing iii the fields it will grow Oh
ill the next season. Mr.. Berry
says they ground some cane there
this season whlch hid been stand
ing for forty months.
The cane growers, or c0lonials,
sell their cane to the refneries,
getting about 80 lbs Of sugar 10
payment for tie ton Of cane.
This season the SO lbs Of sugar
