MANY AMERICANS
STILL IN EUROPE
Steamship Service Is Suf-
ficient for Return, State
Department Is Told.

Quite a number of Americans are
still scattered throughout Europe,
many in the war zone, but train and
steamship service is being restored
sufficiently to assure their safe trans
portation back to this country when
they are desirous of returning, ac-
cording to cabled reports to the State
Department from administration agents
in Europe.
These reports show a general i'm
provement in the financial. commercial
and Industrial conditions throughout
the field of belligerency. The follow
ing summary, given out by the State
Department, shows where the American
refugees have collected and what ar
rangements have been made for their
return to American soil:
The minister at Bern telegraphed
that there are 913 Americans in Swift
zerland. Fifty-eight of these expect to
leave in September, 271 in October and
81 in November. The movements of
the remaining 500, which includes
many permanent residents, are indef-
mite. Those remaining are scattered
all over Switzerland, and about 70 per
cent are women.
1.-The minister at The Hague cables
that train service on the continent is
somewhat irregular. but that transpor-
tation to England is easy. Steamers
for the United States are booked up
until October Is.

Germans Pound English.

But how the Germans did pound that
British line at Mons! They came on
and on and on, never stopping, never
faltering. 1t was like the waves of a
blue-gray sea rolling up through the
fog. One wave would break and die
away, but another would be right be-

Weird Night Fighting.
Perhaps the night fighting is the
most weird and terrible to see. In
this the forces of the allies had the
superiority through their preponderant
supply of aeroplanes. The allied forces
on the retreat from Mons to Senlis
had thirty-five aeroplanes, which were
busy day and night. but particularly
at night.
You would hear a whirring of in
visible propellers overhead and by
straining your ears could trace the
direction of the night f1ier over the
German positions. Gunners stand
ready behind their pieces, keyed up to
wire pitch of efficiency.
Suddenly a spark appears in the
heavens; it falls. The airman has dis

BUSINESS OF KILLING
SEEMS MECHANICAL
Describes German Advance at Mons,
Saying Commanders Recklessly
Sent Men Forward.

NEW YORK, September 25.-A tale
OF warfare from the British camp in
France, vivid with description of the
way the English forces faced death on
the battlefield, of the jokes they cracked
and the prayers they said with tho
bullets sweeping their ranks, was
brought to New York today by the
Rev. James Molloy, a native of Tren-
ton, N. J.. who served as chaplain for
several weeks with one Of the British
regiments in France and returned
home today on the Mauretania.
In modern battle there is an over
powering sense of unreality," he said,
The business of seeing men kill each
other seems mechanical because Of the
preponderance Of the machine element
In the affair; the human element sim
ply bleeds and dies, but the machines
continue in their perfection of
slaughter.
The conduct of the English and
Irish soldiers in the trenches was sur
prising. There those men stood be-
hind shoulder-high mounds Of dirt. fac
ing level sprays of death in front, yet
music hall ballads between volleys.
Stupendous bravery, I call it, or stu
pendous absence of nerves.
i've heard men under the crashing
fire of the terrible German guns and
with comrades dropping all about them

Tipperary. as If they were in barracks
Sometimes I'd hear big Irishman call

business of killing them seemed per-
sonal and to partake somewhat Of a
sporting event.

TRADE NOT DISTURBED
Mexican Situation Exerts Little or No
Effect ON Business.

New York, April 25.-Dun's Review
says:
General business IL not disturbed
by the Mexican situation, but temper
ary unsettlement prevailed in financial
markets. Prices of securities fluctuat-
ed sharply at times. Political in
fluences produced some effect upon
rates for money which advanced
slightly.
"Changes in strictly mercantile con-
ditions are Of mixed character with
the backward spring tending to hold
progress in check. Higher tempera-
lures in certain sections have stimu-
lated distribution of seasonable mer-
chandise at retail. yet the weather
has been sufficiently irregular to pre-
vent uniform Improvements"
