that are most popular just now:

gate reports from American consular

out Americans it was stated, and had
had 10 effect On the landing of Amer
leans here. II was pointed out in the
few instances when cases of Ameri-
cans had been referred to the author
tiles. the requested permission to en-
ter had been granted.

CHARTER SHIPS
FOR AMERICANS
Measures for Relief Are
Continued-Messages
To Germany

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE Washing
ton governments measures for the re-
lief of Americans in Europe and plans
Of the REQ Cross to send an expedition
to the war zones developed rapidly to-
day. American embassies and lega-
lions throughout Europe were author
lied by Secretary Garrison to charter
ships in which to bring home citizens
Of the United States. Plans to send
steamers from the United States were
abandoned, because it was believed the
movement of the refugees could be ex-
pedited by chartering neutral vessels
at European ports. Information re-
ceIved at the state department gave
assurances that the British order
against the entry of aliens into Eng
land was not meant to apply to Amer
leans on the continent who are try
ing to return to the United States by
way Of English ports.
Difficulties over the transmission Of
code messages between Berlin and
Washington partially were removed
when an understanding was reached
with the British foreign office that the
censor should not impede messages
between the American state depart
ment and the Berlin foreign office or
Ambassador Gerard relating 10 the in
terests of Germans in France or Eng
land. However, it was said such mes
sages were being blocked at Copen-
hagen, making it necessary to route
them by way of Rome
Red Cross officials announced that
there had been a countrywide re-
spouse to the appeals for funds to
finance the relief expedition.

not affected by the agreement with tho

be put in the hands of board of truss

real idea underlying the option is to
head off the possibility Of the Boston

interests inimical to Boston in par

II is expected that the New Haven
may represent to a new Legislature
that the option constitutes a restric-

Brussels, Via Paris, Aug. 12.--5 r
Mon the report that preparations
on an extensive scale were imminent,
a correspondent, by permission of the
war control made a circuit along 70
miles of the Belgian front, talking with
the officers and men.
The Belgians are on the alert and
watching important bodies of German
cavalry are making their way through
the country above Liege, proceeding
in the direction of Tobres.
The impression of the correspondent
is that no heavy fighting is likely in
Idburg, where the Germans have lit
tie or no infantry. By the opposition
offered by the Belgian troops at Liege
the Germans lost precious time, which
was proftabIy employed by the French
