Naval Battle in North Sea.

Wireless reports of the firing oi
heavy guns at sea led to the belief in
London that the German and English
fleets are engaged in the North sea.
a news agency announced the re.
ceiDt of a wireless communication
stating that such a battle was being
fought
The first engagement OF the great
European var was fought in the air,
according to report received here.
The report says that German and
French aircraft have been flying just
over the frontier. The Germans are
using the Zeppelin type of dirigible,
while aeroplanes are employed by the
French fliers. One of the latter sight.

side of the border line. The French pil
lot drove his machine straight at the
dirigible, which was manned by
twenty-five soldiers, and dashed
against the gas bag.
The dirigible was wrecked and all
aboard as we'll as the Frenchman were
dashed to death. 1t is believed that
the French lier deliberately sacrificed
his life to deal destruction to the Ger.
mans.
Germany having invaded France, it
is felt in London that the time for ac

rived.

HOUSE PASSES
UNDERWOOD BILL
Admits FOTeign-BuiIt Ships 10
American Registry
URGED BY THE ADMINISTRATION

Notwithstanding Doubtful Attitude o,
international Law Experts Measure
Receives Unanimous Vote-lntend
ed to Relieve Embargo on American
Commerce-Some Fear II viii In
VolVe Us In Complications.
The admission of foreign-built ships
to American registry has received the
unanimous approval of the house and
will without doubt pass the senate
and be approved by the president, at
whose suggestion the action was tax
en-. The measure is designed to re
Heye the embargo on the foreign com
merce of the United States which
has resulted from the war in Europe
The measure was messaged to the
senate this morning and will receive
immediate consideration in that body
1t is understood that the usual diYt
sion on party lines will not be permit
ted to hinder the progress of the bill.
International lawyers expressed the
opinion that the passage OF the bill
will not Yield any substantial relief in
the presen, situation. The danger lies
1t was pointed out, in the fact that any
ships transferred under the proposed
arrangement will run the risk of seiz
ure, inasmuch as the probabilities are
that the bel'igerents will not recognize
the transfer of the flag as valid.
The bill was supported by Repre-
sentative Mann of Illinois. who de
clared that it would give Americans q
chance to invest in foreign ships.
The alarmist views were secuted by
Representative Underwood. He de-
clared that the provision repeating the
law admitting to American registry
only ships of foreign build of not more
than five years and waving the law
that ships flying the American flag
must be ofiicered by American citi
zens and prescribing federal survey,
inspection and measurement, might af'
ford temporary relief to the present
ocean situation without putting the
United States in the danger of invt'
ing trouble.
He warned the house that II the bill
failed to pass American goods would
be bottled up in American storehouses,
cotton would drop to cents pound
and wheat to 20 cents a bushel. He
declared that everything possible
should be done to prevent such ca.
lamity from falling on the country.
Mr.. Underwood produced figures
showing there are many foreign ships
owned by American citizens and cor
porations that might be brought under
the American flag.
The secretary of the navy was given
authority in a bill passed by the sen
ate to use navy vessels to carry pas.
sengers, mail and freight to South
American countries and to Europe.

Britain To Guard shiprinq.

Upon the power of the British navy
rests the only hope that remains to
the United States that ships will be
available for transportation of Ameri-
can goods during the war.
In combination with the French feet
it is believed the British feet will not
only be able to seek out the German
fleet and give it battle, but will also
be able to spare enough ships to pro.
tect the commerce of her ally, France.
France has sent a fleet Of twelve
vessels through the straits Of Gibral.
tar into the Mediterranean. These
vessels, with the British fleet will, 1t
is believed, keep the Austrian and
Italian navies from doing any great
damage to the shipping of their enc.
mics. English and French steamers
will therefore be free to go anywhere
they please, and particularly to the
United States, solely because of the
assumed ability of the English and
French nayies to protect such com.
merce.
German ships, on the other hand.
will remain bottled up in neutral ports.

UNCLE SAM TO RESCUE

Are Stranded In Europe.

Are Stranded In Europe.
The state department at Washing.
ton has evolved plan for financing
Americans who have been marooned
abroad.
Announcement was made by Secre'
tary of State Bryan that the state
department will accept deposits of cash
to be placed to the credit OF Amer.
cans in Europe. Consular and dipl
matte agents of the United States
will thereupon be instructed to issue
to Americans thus provided with
credit at Washington cash to the
amount of credits deposited. II con.
suls are unable to secure cash to de-
liver to the Americans thus provided
for they will issue a special certificate
guaranteed by the United States gov,
ernment to be offered as legal tender.
Mr.. Bryan is of the opinion that in
cases where actual cash is not obtain.
able by the American officials abroad
these certificates will be accepted gen.
orally in payment for food, lodging
and transportation.
The opinion was expressed that the
certificates will be readily accepted.
One banker said that he believed the
certificates would be welcome, as they
will represent a value unaffected by
commercial rates of exchange and will
be backed by the United States gov.
ernment.

Mobilization Order In France.

The organization already has begun
in Paris of battalions of foreign vol.
unteers, notably Belgians, Slavs and
Syrians. Several hundred Italians pa
raded through the downtown section
carrying ltPlian and French flags ari
shouting Down with Germany" and
Long live France!"
The fateful order of mobilization
consisted of only seventeen words and
read as follows:
Ministry Of War. Order of general
mobilization. Extreme urgency First
day of the mobilization, Sunday, Aug

The words were written in a large
hand and appeared on sheets of white
paper about Sx12 inches. These post.

From all parts of France news was
received in the capital that the order
for mobilization had been received
with feelings Of great relief.
