Brussels, Aug Gilt is officially announced that the| Germans have asked for 24-hohr armistice at Lege
 Twenty five thousand Germans out of total force of SO,000 operating about, Liege haveI fallen in the thfee days continuous fighting.
 The Germans were driven back again today in ] three desperate charges.
 Furious fighting continues ard the dead and wounded are lying unat- tended on the battlefield. It is be- lieved the Germans want the arH.is- tice to relieve their wounded and bury their dead.
 The request has been laid befors King Albert. He must consider lr deciding whether Germany would take advantage of the "A hours delay to bring up re-inforcements. News has been received here 'Eai
 French army has entered Belgium and is advancing toward the support of the Belgia1s.
 "The French are coming np,' was
 the cry that ran along the Liege notifications tonight. There is will enthusiasm over the continuous victories of the Belgians. The events before Liege are con- sidered as merely the raising of the curtain and that Belgium will once more be the country where the dcs-
 tinies of Europe will be decided. Trains filled with wounded md fugitive nOa-cOmbatants are arriving here hourly from Liege, and neigh- boring towns along the battle line. Eye witnesses of the fighting say the Belgians were in the best of spirits when the trains left Liege. "If there had not been ten Germans to one Belgian" said one of tho wounded Belgian troopers, mot ono German would have got through cur | lines"
 Though in good spirits. the Belg- l ians are partly exhausted from their 30 hours of fighting without resting. Non-combatants arriving say they l saw Germans moved down by the
 hundreds in front of the trenches and
 entanglements by the gun and rifle
 fire of the Belgians, but were replac-
 ed by others who crawled forward
 like weasels.

 zone the ground was covered with

Carranza Notifies Provi- sional President He Must
 Not Oppose Him.
WITHIN FIFTY
 MILES OF CAPITAL
COnStitutiOnaIiSt Forces Marching Rapidly Toward Mexico City and Pierce Fighting Is Anticipated.
 Bryan Still Hopes for Peace.

Washington. Aug. 1.-General Car ranza has notified Provisional Presi- dent Carbajal that if he dares to de- fend Mexico City with federal troops the constmtionalists will put the de- cree of 1862 into immediate execution. The decree of 1862 is that which GOV cred the execution of MaXimilian in 1867, and many other executions and proscriptons If Carranza's threat Is carried out, reign of terror will be inaugurated in Mexico.
 This law condemns to death any Mexican who has fought against the fatherland and obviously is capable ot wide application. It was originally aimed at those who joined the French and under it were shot Miramon and , Mejia, who were executed with Elm 1 peror MaXimilian.
 l Carranza's telegram was intercept ed at Vera Cruz and sent to this gov ernment today. The stat9 departmen lhas within teh last few days sent mes lsages to Carranza, stating that i
 would be pleasing to the United States if there was peaceful occu
 patton of the Mexican capital.
 Secretary Bryan, in his latest an
 nouncement, discountenanced the i'll formation that the Carbajal and Car
 ranza peace delegates had disagreed
 at Saltillo. His attitude was one o
 hope that the occupation of the cit!
 would be bloodless and expressed th' view that matters were progressin:
 favorably."
 In view of the secret character o the information concerning Carran za's threat and the manner in whicl it was obtained. nothing was giyel out as to how this government woul'
 meet Carranza's action. It is certain
 however, that the plans for withdraw 1 ing all of the American fleet iron | Mexican waters will be halted. 1 Constitutionalists headquarters il l Washington have reports that thei troops have reached point only lift. miles from Mexico City.

Messina, Aug. 7.--Closc cleared for action save for their streaming battle flags of black and red, and with their bands playing the German national anthem. the battle cruisers Goeben and Breslau sped out of port at o.30 o'clock this morning into the far spread teeth of the British Mediter ranean fleet.
 Officers and such seamen as chose had made their wills and left their personal belongings with the German consul. They were going to almost certain death, and they knew it.
 They could have chosen life but they spurned it. To the enduring proof of German courage and the honor of her flag they steamed against a mighty fleet of battleships.
 The roar of sea guns was heard in Messina two hours after their de- parture. It ceased within two hours. The battle of David and Goliath had been fought.
 Naval men of Italy, inspired by the splendid courage of the Germans if uOI SSIlIpdlIcIlC Wllu lucIl CduoC, oos there is almost no chance of their es- cape.
 The incident lays heavy emphasis upon the declared neutrality of Italy. The 24-hour limit allowed by law of nations for an embattle ship to re- main in a foreign port expired just af- ter the cruisers steamed away. The Italian government gave the German commander the choice of dis arrming and keeping his ships in the port of Messina until the end of hos tilites. Ootherwise they must leave within the stipulated time. The alter native was cOurteously declined by l the German commanders. Immediate | ly there was activity on the cruisers.
 While the decks were being stripped for the certain struggle, officers and
 men were preparing for the almost
 certain death. Emissaries were sent
 ashore bearing the wills and property
 that the heroes wishes to be sent to their families.

tute the glory of humanity. Such ap-

yet the science can serve the race ma

chilled There were no beds left, so
we were escorted to a pier, and about
sixty of us bedded down there for the
night. The night was passed in good
natured bantering, and at 4:15 o'clock
we were ordered out of the building,

Independent Sportsmanship a Myth.
Some people are foolish enough to
believe that the different baseball clubs
of a big league are run Independently,
without collision of any kind, and in
a spirit of pure rivalry and sportsman
ship. Then why all these rumors that
the other National league nagnates are
'bitter over the failure of Taft to sell
the Cubs to John T. Connery of Chi
cago." Mr.. Taft has intimated that
he has a notion of running the Cubs
himself, and has appointed G. II.
Thomas, a former secretary of Muir
ply, as president. The other mag
mates in the National league may re-
fuse to allow Thomas to head the club,
and it is probable that if Mr.. Taft is
so inconsiderate as to assert his pro-
perty rights in the Chicago Baseball
club, and announces any intention OF
running his own property as he sees
fit, the other club overs will try to
find some way to force him out as they
did Charlie Murphy.
