London, Aug. War has been
declared by Germany against Rus
sia and immediate hostilities be-
tween the two nations is expected.
France viii be drawn into the
conflict taking sides with Russia.
A dispatch from Paris states that a
general mobilization of the French
army has been ordered and that the
German ambassador is preparing to
leave the French capital.
Italy has declared her neutrality
and Great Britain's position is that
She is under no formal obligation
to 60 to the assistance of France in
event of an European war. These
are the only redeeming features of
the darkest prospect with which
Europe has been faced for a cen
century. But how long Italy and
Great Britain can maintain neutral
positions is a debatable question.

STAGE ROBBERY
IN YELLOWSTONE
Thirty-FiVe Coaches Are Held Up
by Two Bandits.
TOURISTS SURRENDER $1,000
Man With Rifle Makes Them Dump
Money in Gunny Stockholders
and Scouts After the
Miscreants.

Mammoth Hot Springs. Wyo., July
31.-Two masked and armed bandits
held up So stage coaches near So
shone point between the Thumb lunch
station and Old Faithful inn and
robbed the passengers Wednesday.
The coaches belong TO the Yellow
stone & Western Stage company, the
Yellowstone Park Transportation
company, the Shaw-Poweu Camping
company and the Wylie Permanent
Camping company. They left Old
Faithful all together at eight o'clock
on their way to the Lake hotel.
The passengers were requested to
get off the stages by one of the high
waymen, who held a rife and COM
PEELED them to deposit their cash
only" in a gunny sack which he had
prepared for that purpose. The other
bandit was stationed down the road
short distance to keep the last coaches
from returning to Old Faithful inn and
reporting the holdup.
The man who held the gun was
about five feet eight, and weighed
about one hundred and forty-fve
pounds. The other bandit was a
larger man, but, on account of his
keeping in the timber, a good descrip-
ton could not be secured by the pas
sengers.
Driver Frazier of the Yellowstone
Western Stage company, who was the
driver of the last stage leaving Old
Faithful inn, on coming to the top of
Soshone point saw below him in the
road the coaches all lined up and the
passengers being robbed, and turned
and beat a hasty retreat to Old Faith
full inn, where he reported the holdup
to the military authorities.
The men who pulled off the job
were evidently old hands at the game,
as the stages were only an hour late
in getting to the Thumb lunch station.
Colonel Brett, superintendent of the
park, at once ordered all scouts and
soldiers to the scene Of the holdup,
and also threw a screen of soldiers
around the western and southern
boundaries of the park. There was
no excitement on the part of the pas
sengers; no shots were fired and no
one was injured.
The bandits got away with about
three thousand dollars in money.

OBREGON TAKES
QUERETARO CITY
Reports Indicate He viii Go to
the Capital at Once.
VILLAS PURPOSES IN DOUBT
State Department Loses Touch With
Him After His Departure From
the SaltiIIo Conference in
Bitter Mood.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Queretaro,
the last stronghold of the federal
forces north of Mexico City, has been
captured by General Obregon, accord
ing to adyices received by the state
department.
Unofficial reports indicate that Obre-
gon will proceed at once to the Mexi-
can capital. This is at variance with
the Carranza-C arbajal plan under
which all the constitutionalist leaders
would enter Mexico City at the same
time.
The state department has lost Gen
eral Villa and has been unable to get
answers to its recent instructions to
its agents in Mexico to discover his
purposes and report to Washington.
The last authentic dispatch to the
department was from one of the con-
suls, who declared that Villa had left
the Carranza-Villa conference at Sal
tillo in bitter mood.
General Villa has no personal agent
in Washington, but it is said that he
suspects the close relations which
have been brought about between the
British admiral, Sir Christopher era
dock, Carbajal and Carranza.
Even officials in the state depart
ment are of the opinion that the resig-
nation of Huerta, practically in favor
of Carranza, through Carbajal, was
brought about when Sir Christopher
Cradock visited Huerta just before the
resignation at Mexico City.
Cabinet officers who were asked for
news about General Villa and his
movements were loath to discuss the
subject 1t can be asserted, however,
on high military authority that Villa
is regarded by the army as the agency
which brought about the fall of Huerta
and that he with his army eventually
would have gone to Mexico City
whether or not Great Britain had Sc
cured the abdication of Huerta. Most
of the officers think Villa is in position
to dictate terms to Carranza and that
he is only waiting to hear what kind
of terms Carbajal and Carranza will
agree on before making his purpose
known.

Alton, Ill, Aug. ARMED with re
peating rifles, Is former employees of
Young Buffalo's Wild West show
seized the entire equipment of the
show in the Alton railroad yards and
fired shots to drive away train crew
which attempted to take out II of the
show cars. The employees declared
they would hold the property until
they were given three weeks back
pay they said was due them.
At the same time residents in the
east end of the city, near the railroad
yards, appealed to the police and dep
uty sherfffs to subdd6 a party of 20
Sioux Indians set adrift in the city by
the disbanding of the Wild West ag-
gregation. The persons who made the
appeal declared the Indians were
drinking. Dissatisfaction among en-
ployes, especially among the Indians,
caused the abandonment of the shows
itinerary for the season.
