Bulletins AnxiousIy Watched by For

ed In European Strife.

Foreign residents of Moline Of the
six countries which form the triple al
lance and the triple entente in Eur
ope. and which are on the verge OF
war. are wild with excitement over the
trouble and many plan to return TO
the aid of their respective countries
should their services be needed. Aus
TRANS and Hungarians here have dis
played especial interest, as have the
Russians. and almost all who have not
become citizens of the United States
NAV return to their fatherland.
Bulletins on the crisis posted by the
newspapers are watched with great IN
terest by the foreign contingent most
" concerned. There are not many
Serbs in this city, so no local trouble
is expected.
Are Called TO Arms.
Through its ministers and represen-
tatives in the United States, the Aus
trian government has sent word that
all natives of that country now resid-
ing in this hemisphere, and who have
not become citizens of the United
States, are wanted in the fatherland to
fight the Servians. and a gen.
eral call to arms has been extended
throughout the country. All who are
subject to military duty are wanted,
as Francis Joseph, ruler of Austria
Hungary. IS precipitating one of the
most terrible wars in the country's his
tory.
In the meantime subjects Of Car
Nicholas who reside in this city, are in
almost as wild a state of excitement
as the Austrians, owing to the fact
that the Russian empire plans to take
mp arms to assist the Serbs as
that country is invaded by the Aus
TRANS. A call has been sent out for
men in Russia and IL the great
international struggle become a real
lily, there IS no doubt that hundreds
of foreigners will journey back to the
old country from Moline and fight
with their brothers.

1t is believed that with the increased

a few years little coal will be mined
in Illinois without having been pre-

Wilderness of Neglected Farms"
Southern Maryland" he said, is a

through the tenant farm system. Rails

which means money borrowed on crops,
