LONDON INSURES
AGAINST AIR RAID
Prepares Calmly for Visit
of Zeppelin Fleets
Ready to Attack.

London. Oct. London is insurlng
against visits from Count Zeppelin's
airships. Just why L0ndoners should
suddenly decide there is danger OF
bomb dropping is not clear, but the fact
remains that Lloyds to-day had num-
her of orders for the insurance OF pri-
vate property in the city and the imme-
diate neighborhood. Underwriters are
willing to accept much lower premiums
than in the early days OF the war, ana
n large number OF private dwellings,
are being covered at IS Sd per cent, the
policy insuring against damage OF all
description due to hostllitles. Private
persons can be insured against death
or injury from the enemy at Is ID per
cent per annum, provided they continue
to reside in England during the PERIOD
Of the policy. .r.
The Hague correspondent of the
Daily EXPRESS" says that German news.
papers reaching there indicate that
Count zeppelin is now at Wilhelms-
haven. on the North Sea, with his
staff. Wilhelmshaven is the point
from which the great air raid on the
British Isles is to start. One OF theSe
papers publishes an interview with the
Count. in which he is quoted as saying
that he had not forgotten England and
would prove it very soon. .
II is also reported, the correspondent
continues. that Count Zeppelin was
summoned recently to Mainz by EN-
peror william, who offered TO make
him comander-in-chief of the Ger
man air feet. The Count smillngly re-
fused, but said he would accept the
title when he returned from England.
The Zeppelin staff is working, day
and night at Wilhelmshaven, and an
other station is being established at
Emden for other types of airshlps.

London, Oct THE Standard"

Schwab has made contracts aggregat-

French and Russian governments to

In connection with this big deal. it
is recalled that two armor plate auto

English concern with French factory,

ANOTHER ISLAND

Germans Report Seizure
of zap, in Pacific, by
MikadO'S Forces.

Peking, Oct 7.-According to Ger
man news agency, Japanese forces have
occupied the Island of zap, the most
important island in the Caroline group,
or New Philippines, in the Pacilc
Ocean.
The Caroline islands are east of the
Philippines. The group is very eX-
tended, and comprises about $50 small
islands. zap is about 1000 miles from
the island OF Mindanao, one of the
Philippine group. The Caroline Islands
were sold by Spain to Germany in 1899.

that he had received assurances from
Ambassador Guthrie at Toxic and from

by Gable to Tho Tribune.
London, Oct. japanese action in
the Marshall Islands aroused great in
terest here, particularly on account of
the general belief that Japan had given
assurances that her activities would be
confined TO the Continent of Asia. This
viey was based on the statement made
during August, Immediately following
Japan's ultimatum to Germany, when
apprehension as TO the extent of the
Japanese operations existed not only in
America, but also in Australia.
On August 10 this official statement
was made here: at is understood that
the action Of Japan will not extend TO
the Pacific beyond the China Seas, ex-
cept as may be necessary TO protect
Japanese shipping lines in the Pacific
nor in Asiatic waters westward OF the
China Seas or in foreign territories
except in territories of German occupa-

eminent keenly desires to avoid arous-
ing the slightest apprehension in Amer
