CRUISER ASHORE AFTER
FIGHT WITH GERMAN
British Ship Warrior Bested in En-
counter with Goeben. Berlin Re
ports to Embassy Here.

wireless report was received at the
German Embassy yesterday announcing
the stranding OF the British cruiser War
riOr supposedly as the result of a conflict
with the German battle cruiser GOeben.
This dispatch is believed to be the de-
layed report of an action either in the
Adriatic or the eastern part Of the Medi-
tertanean Sea prior to the internment OF
the Goeben and Breslau at Constantine
pie. That is the German Embassys view
Of the report.
The dispatch received at the embassy
from the Sayville wireless station reads
as follows:
British cruiser Warrior stranded prob
ably result of fight with Goeben while
escaping from the Bosphorus.
The receipt of the dispatch caused a
considerable stir in diplomatic circles.
Immediately speculation began as to how
the Goeben had got out of the Darda-
nelles to engage a British ship. II was
taken that either the Goeben had vio-
lated the neutrality OF Turkey in sailing
out of the Bosphorus or that Turkey had
hoisted the Crescent flag over the cruiser
and entered the war on her own account.

"Siir" James Carlton. Representative
of English Millions" Faces Trial on
Charge Of Violating Mann Law.
LADY, CARLTON IN TOLLS, TOO

speciAI to The wsshingto1 Herald.
Boston. Mass, Sept. a-''Slr'' James
Carlton. who arrived in Boston two
months ago from Europe and announced
himself as the representative Of millions
of English capital which he was to
spend establishing oxygen manufacturing
plants in Boston and other American
cities, was arrested today. charged with
violating the white slave law. Lady"
Carlton. whom Carlton brought to. Amer
lea as his wife. also was arrested at an
apartment in Cambridge.
Carlton was indignant. He said his
wife before her marriage was Miss An
ME Baird. daughter of Sir Andrew Baird.
surgeon general OF the English troops In
Scotland.
Cartons arrest comes as another dra-
matte touch to a career which started
with many hourishes in Boston. New
York, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh. He
gave a big dinner at the Copley-PlaZa
Hotel here to the captain Of the steamer
Cleveland, sent for reporters, and inter-
viewed himself about his oxygen plants
He was extended the welcome TO the
city by Mayor Curley.
Next came hints that perhaps Sir"
James was not the goods Boston banks
called in detectives. They \put it up to
"Sir" James to tell all about himself.
He refused. Carlton opened up an office
and took an option on some land in East
Boston to start his oxygen plant The
warrant for Cartons arrest and that
OF his wife followed an inquiry in Eng
land as to Cartons connections.
After an hours court hearing, Sir"
James and Lady Carlton were released
on 1900 bond each for hearing on
Thursday.

This he intimates in a letter to the

Londoners have just as hard a time

ians, James L. Wilmeth, chief clerk OF
the Treasury Department, said in a let
ter received here from Holland, where
Mr.. Wilmeth. as disbursing officer OF the

battleship Tennessee. Mr.. Wilmeth mailed
the Isetter from Rotterdam.
Soldiers are marching through the
strets and drilling in the parks; long
trains of artillery can be seen moving
to the 'front.' said Mr.. Wilmbeth, in
speaking of conditions in London.
THE English people do not seem TO
be hilarious over the war, but are grim
ly determined. A strict censorship is ex-
aercised over all the news. so that We
are probably receiving as much news
here in England as you are in the

1t begins to look as if exports would
run so far ahead Of imports that the
banks win be able to avoid the ship
ment of gold to London or Ottawa within
six weeks.
It is not unlikely that sterling ex-
change rates will fall below the nominal
par of exchange If our export trade in
grain, provisions, and steel products to
Europe keeps up for two months longer
This would clear away one Of the DIM
culties in the way Of reopening the stock

Bankers have been afraid that foreign
liquidation would drain this country of
gold quite as much as they have i'm
pairment OF the book value of the stock
exchange collateral they hold as security
for loans. II We can pay for securities
with grain, and other exports the in
tsrchange will be to our advantage in
the end because it will reduce our la

London bankers have shown courage
and resourcefulness in discountinE bills
and the Bank Of England has been able
to build up its gold reserve to the high
est point 1t has touched at corresponding
dates in recent years. British bankers
and business men have made a remark

Cause of Reduction.
It is not so much a question Of re-
duced earnings with the public utilities
companies which recently have cut on
or have reduced their disbursements to
stockholders as a serious question of
getting capital from the general public
They must get money from their income
and TO do this they must cease paying
dividends for a time. In effect they are
requiring their stockholders to finance
the properties in which they are partners
until such time as public financing can
again be done.
Eventually the stockholders should be
well repaid, as there is little doubt but
that the treasures Of the companies will
be reimbursed for all capital expendi-
tuEes made out Of income by the sale
Of securities when the investment market
again becomes normal

each dollar put into capital investment
