terday at midnight, when all trans portation was to be stopped for a period of some weeks. The Austrian government has been running special trains for tourists from karlsbad and Marienbad to the capital. The plan was to transport the foreigners from Vienna to Trieste and thence to Venice, where they can embark on Italian vessels. So far there has been no danger to Americans, but great in- convenience and the Cunarder Car rathia has already left Plume for Malta with a number aboard.
 Oscar Straus and F. l. Kent, repre- sentatives of the Bankers Trust Co., 10th members of the relief commit tee in London, reported that their work was fully organized. and d com plete list of all Americans in England will be issued
 Need of transports capable of carrying at least twenty thousand people was urged, since the lack of gold has made it impossible for many to secure even food, to say nothing of lodging.
 Similar conditions exist in Milan, according to Consul Stollart. who re- ported several hundred Americans de- srous of leaving. Consul Baehr re- ported Switzerland also filled with Americans unable to secure credit.
 From Bergen. Norway, a despatch signed by the Arctic Explorer Rass- nussen reported that party of Americans on polar expedition on board the Prinz Friederich Wilhelm on their way to Bremen had disem- parked and asked for assistance

WARSn|PS TO GUARD
 AMERICAN PORTS
Sec. Daniels Takes Measures to Protect Neutrality Of United States.

Washington, Aug. 6.-To protect the neutrality of American ports and prohibit shipments of munitions of war, Secretary Daniels today or dered the battleship Florida at Tomp- kinsville, to watch the port of New York, the Mayf1ower to proceed to Hampton Roads, d number of de- stroyers to guard ports along the New England coast and those at LeweS, Del, to prevent violations of neutrality at Philadelphia or in that territory. Any vessel attempting to sail for a belligerent port without clearance papers will be boarded by American officials,
 The Texas and Louisiana at Vera Cruz and the Minnesota at Tampico have been ordered to New York and Secretary Daniels announced that other American vessels will be or dered north as fast as room could be eound for them at navy yard docks.
 No Code Messages Allowed.
 At wireless stations, under the censorship ordered by President Wilson, no code message will be al- lowed under any circumstances. Mes sages which might help any of the belligerents in any way will, of course, be barred.
 The battleship Florida has orders to watch the German liner Naterland, until it is determined whether her load of reservists or munitions of war; if any, are aboard, violate the neutrality laws.
 Expresses His Chagrin.
 Secretary Garrison today expressed his chagrin at the disposition of American steamship companies 70 charge what he considers eXorDitant prices for vessels to transport Amer jeans. MT. Garrison said preliminary inquiries brought information that vessels could be obtained for about $500 day. The price suddenly has been doubled.
 II do not intend to have any one get suddenly rich out of this busi- ness,' said Secretary Garrison. The steamship companies will find that they cannot use this occasion to siphon money out of the United States treasury
 Employ Army Transports.
 For that reason, Mir. Garrison said it would be his purpose first to em- ploy some of the twelve army trans ports at Galveston already being re- fitted for Atlantic service. He has made inquiry if he has author ity to commander commercial ves- sells for the emergency and is hope full that the government can seize ships and afterwards arrange for fair compensation for their use.
 Inquiries for Pacific vessels have developed that nothing is available there more adaptable than on the Atlantic side. It was found, also, that no vessels were available on the Great Lakes.

General Improvement Shown in Con- ditiOns Among Americans Abroad,
 According to Dispatches.

Washington, Aug. 6.-General inn p1ovement in the conditions among Americans abroad was shown today in official despatches to the state de- Eartment. Urgent appeals for trans portation however, continued.
 Ambassador Herrick reported that the financial panic has been so far al- leviated in Paris that he recommended that the gold on board the cruiser Tennessee be diverted to other cities in greater need. E. H. Gary, chair man of the relief committee in Paris, stated that at least 3O,OOO Americans vere in need of transportation and that with present odations 1t would take six months to move them.
 From Vienna Ambassador Penfield telegraphed under date of August 3 that he was making every effort to get Americans out of Austria before yes-

KAISER CHAMPION OF
 WESTERN C|v|L|zAII IN
Peace Soclsty Head Says Gar
 Would Rue All Europe.

New York, Aug. 6.-Dr Ernst Richard president of the German American Peace Society and founder of the New York Peace Society, de- plored the attitude of the American press yesterday accusing the news papers of taking sides against Ger; many. pr. Richard contended that war.
 The newspapers are decidedly against Germany in this trouble The German-American population of New York feels that the entire press is against Germany. There are edl- torials against the Germans. A Ger man defeat is printed in big head lines. A German victory is printed in little letters.'
 France Will Pay.
 pr. Richard said that the opinion of Germans regarding the outcome of the war was that France would pay the bill no matter what Germany might suffer at the hands of Russia or England. Earlier Tn the day Dr. Richard gave out an interview in which he characterized the American press taking sides against the Kaiser as race treachery, just as it will be race treachery for the English to fight against Germany and with Rus Sia.''
 The clash in Europe was not started by the Austria -Servia em- broilment,' said pr. Richard. Some thing much deeper began it, and it is from that deeper cause that the Kaiser and the German people must be judged in the present war. The deeper and the real cause of the war is: Shall Europe be ruled by Asiatics or by Europeans-by Slavs or by Teutons?
 Czars Eyes on All Europe
 Russia, with it's Asiatic absolu- tism and hatred of the ideas of in- dividual liberty, means to make it. self master of all Europe as we'll as Asia. The Car knows that the Teuton is his only bar to that, and he means to seize Europe and Asia even if he has to do it over the dead bodies of the Teuton race.
 ''The Austria -Servia flareup is only the spark in the powder magazine. Russia did not really care anything about Servia. But 1t did see chance to strike a blow at Germany with the aid of France and England. That Is

REP. CRONA TO SAIL.

Mrs. Peter Crona of Maple street has received letter from Represen- tative Peter Crona in which he states that he will sail from Christiana, Norway, for home tomorrow. He was to have left on August 13, but ex- changed his tickets some time ago, this, however, before the outbreak of hostilities. The possibility is that the representative will be obliged to aban- don his plans, owing to the change the steamship companies have been obliged to make in their schedules.

WORRY ABOUT PASTOR.
Will Rev. c. E. Pihl Get Home at
 End of Leave of Absence?

LAu ol AC"~o oA AA"o'
 The deacons of the Swedish Beth any church are beginning to worry over the ability of their pastor, Rev. G. E. Pihl, to come over from Sweden in time to resume his work here at the expiration of his leave of ab- sence, about the middle of next month.
 According to Rev. MT. Pihls origin al plans, he would set sail for this country Saturday, September 12, but if the situation in the old world con- tinues to grow more grave at the rate it has during the past few weeks, it is safe to say that it will be inn possible for the clergyman to return for many months.

why the Czar ordered the mobiliza = tion of his troops on the German border.
 Was Germany expected to sit quietly by while Russia was massing her troops against her? In the same way the French. who had been mere y sulking at their defeat since the Franco-Prussian war, are little con- cerned about the rights or wrongs of Servia. They see only a chance to get revenge, with the aid of Russia, and England.
 + France began the war without first declaring war, just as she has done twenty times before this to Ger many in the past hundred years.
 "Germany Driven to War;
 "Germany does not want war Never was it so prosperous: never did it so strongly desire peace. It is ridiculous not to see that Germany and the Kaiser had no motive to Want war. But they were driven into .War by the Muscovite who wants to sweep Europe, and by the French, who want revenge.
 50 hard has the Kaiser tried to preserve the peace that even the Norwaerts organ of the powerful So- cialist movement in Germany, always bitter against the Kaiser on principle and personally, has admitted it."
 Explains Neutrality Violation.
 How do you justify the Kasiers violation of the neutrality of Belgium and Luxemburg?" Dr. Richard was asked.
 "Germany has no intention what ever of keeping any of Belgium's ter ritory. It will restore it to full in- dependence after the war. 1t vio- lated Belgium's neutrality for the same reason it struck at Russia-it could not afford to wait for the enemy to strike first. If she had not oc- cupied Belgium first France would have done so.

No Wireless Messages.

No wireless messa ges were sent from and none received by the President Lincoln, the captain fear ing that if he worked his wireless he might reveal his position to Ger manv's enemies. His operators over heard all sorts of messages, lnclud-
 ing fearsome ones that told of the
 presence of hostile warships in the
 steamship lane. Ferdinand Schu-
 Heink, who left his mother,
 the prima donna, at Beyreuth, got anxious about her after he learned that war existed between Russia and
 Germany, and he tried to communl- cate with her by wireless. He found
 that money could not buy the privi- lege of aerial communication. He said that Mme Heink had planned to leave Germany for her adopted country in the latter part of this month, but he feared that she might not be able to get away.
