STRICT NEUTRALITY
Will Be OBSERVED Sc
Administration Ready to Help
Out in All Difficulties Due
to Crisis Abroad.

Washington, Aug. 4.-President
| Wilson has appealed to the people
| of the United States to remain calm
| during the war in Europe. He de
clares the United States owes it t.
mankindn to help the rest Of the world
during the present crisis.
A proclamation of neutrality, Mr.
| Wilson said, will be issued as soon as
it can be completed by the state de.
partment. He does not believe there
will be any necessity for congress to
remain In session because of the sit.
uation in Europe.
Presiden Wilson told callers the
United States had not made any Of
fer to use its good Offices to bring
about peace in Europe. He said he
had not heard of suggestion by the
queen of Holland that the United
States unite with her country to Of
fer mediation.
The president declared the United
States could gain great and perma-
nent glory during the present trouble
providing no one lost his head.
The president urged that nothing
be done in America to add to the ex-
element of the world There is sure
to be inconvenience to the financial
institutions of the country, he told
the callers, but he added that the ad-
ministration is fully prepared to help
out all difficulties. He urged that no
credence be given to unconfirmed re-
ports of a sensational nature.
The president declared there Is
no cause for any serious alarm in the
United States. The administration
is bending every effort, he said, to-
ward getting ships to carry the food
stuffs and other products of the Unit
ed States to all the world and to bring
home Americans stranded in Europe.

WESTERN LINES COME NEXT
Will Ask Permission to Increase
Freight Rates.

Washington, Aug. Increases in
freight rates on all the railroads west
of the Mississippi river are being pre-
pared for submission to the interstate
commerce commission.
The applications of the Western
railways for more revenue and expect
ed consequence of the commission
decision in the Eastern rate case an
nounced Saturday, will be, presented
as soon as they can be prepared in
the required form and will constitute
the basis for another proceeding such
as the one just concluded.
Managers of the Western lines, &C
cording to the best information in Of
fetal circles here, are prepared to
contend that they need more revenues
to meet the increasing expenses of
operation and to point out that their
lines are in even greater need of re-
lief than the. Eastern lines because of
necessarily longer hauls and less
density of population.

GREAT BRITAIN May
Be FORCED TO ACT

London, Aug. 4.-Vioiation of neu-
Frontier raids by German, Russian
s1alid French troops, clashes between
sputposts, the bombardment of Rus
sian Baltic port by a German war
a:ship, the seizure of merchant ships
Sby Russia and Germany and Italy's
proclamation of her neutrality consti-
rtuted the striking features of the war
aon which virtually the whole conti-
znent of Europe has started.
The position to be taken by the
British empire remains still to be de-
!, fined, but it is feared that Germany's
seizure of Belgian territory will be q
deciding factor which will lead Brit
Dns to take the sword in hand, as
:nnder the treaty Of London of 1889
Great Britain stands pledged to main
stain Belgium's neutrality.
Evidences are not lacking of the
grave views of the situation taken by
all classes in the United Kingdom.

This appointment as minister of war.
It is asserted in authoritative quar-
tiers that due warning was given to
Germany OF the intention of the Brit
1sh navy to take instant action in
case a German soldier should set
foot on Belgian SOIL
In spite of this, and of the prompt
refusal by the Belgian government to
accept the agreement offered by. Ger
many as the price of the violation of
Belgian neutrality, German forces
penetrated the little buffer state at
stwo points on their way to the French
frontier.

The writer desires to call your

Fifty Car Limit. y
Number is one of the greatest
safety measures known to prevent
loss of life and limb. Since with
the long freight trains it is diff
cult for the trainmen to tell W hen
a pair OF wheels are off the tack
or a breakbeam down when the
defect is 20 or % car lengths from
them. The breakbeam never ad-
justs itself but the pair of wheels
may re-rail themselves at road
crossings or when passing over
switches.
In ease the wheels do re.rall
themselves. the train crew are not
aware that they were ever off the
track. and no report is made. SO
it is evident that the track is made
unsafe by reason OF the derailed
wheels cutting off the bolt heads
at the track joints and the faster
or passenger train that next uses
the track may be wrecked on ac-
count Of above mentioned defects,
