ITALIANS NEUTRAL,
OFFICIALLY ONLY
Government RepreSSes
Manifestations, Which
Are All for France.

Rome. via Paris, Aug. THE Ger
man government is using its utmost
efforts to bring about a change IN
Italy's attitude in the present Euro
pean situation. Direct appeals have
been made to King Victor Emmanuel,
but all in vain. 1t is asserted that
Italy, having declared neutrality, in
tends to maintain il.
Italy's position as a member of the
Triple Alliance, and therefore an ally
of Germany, under certain conditions,
has been discussed in every p. lse, and
the consensus of opinion seems to be
that the Italian people would never
permit an act Of hostility against
France and Great Britain.
Because Italy is neutral all manifes-
tations for or against the belligerents
are being vigorously repressed. Yet
everywhere spontaneous outbursts OF
enthusiasm for France have occurred.
In Rome there have been frequent
cries of "Long live France, long live
our Latin brothers." and the "Marsel-
iaise" is being sung in the streets.
The French Embassy here and the
French consulstes in other cities OF
Italy are daily receiving offers from
men who wish to join the French army.

Winston Spencer Churchill, First
Lord of the Admiralty. announced in
the House of Commons this afternoon
that there had been no fighting and
no losses Of any kind other than had
already been officially made public.
Apart from the loss of the small
British cruiser Amphion and the Ger
man mine layer Koenigin Luise," said
the First Lord. "there has been NJ
other fighting and no other loss, as far
as we are aware.
"On Wednesday a Aotilla of destroy
ers, while patrolling the upper reaches
of the English Channel, found the
Koenigin Luise laying mines. The de-
stroyers pursued and sank her. About
hfty Of her crew, which probably num-
bered 120 or i30 men, were humanely
saved by the crews of the British de-
stroyers.
"The Amphion continued to scout
with the fotills, and while on the re-
turn journey was blown up by a mine.
German Methods Condemned.
"The indiscriminate use of mines. not
in connection with military harbors or
strategic positions, and the indiscrim-
mate scattering Of contact mines about
the seas might, Of course, destroy not
only warships, but peaceful merchant
vessels under a neutral flag and possi-
bly carrying supplies to neutral coun-
try. This use Of mines is new in war
fare. and deserves the attentive con-
sideration. not only Of those of US who
are engaged in war, but Of all the ma
tions Of the civilized world.
"The Admiralty is not at all alarmed
or disconnected by this incident"
Mr.. Churchill added that arrange
