Official quarters over the action Of the
Germans. While it is admitted that in
war It is the privilege OF an enemy to
inaiot every possible damage on the
fighting forces Of his Opponents, the
dropping OF bombs on unprotected

be violation Of the rules Of civilized
warfare.
According to the reports available
here, the bombs dropped at Luneville
were made up of Gemany's new high
explosive and we're particularly deadly.
The fifteen soldiers killed are said to
have literally been blown TO pieces.

By KARL H. Won wIEGAND.
United Press Siall Corresnnndent.

BERLIN, Aug 4.-The grave pressing
need of the Americans now in Germany
is means of taking them out OF the
country. The police restrictions are
extremely hampering. Ambassador Ger
ard is doing everything possible for
his comtrymen, but he admits that
they ought 20 be taken from the war
zone without delay.
The Offices of the United Press were
today crowded with Americans anxious
that their plight should be communicat-
ed 10 Secretary of State Bryan and
President Wilson. All insisted that il
was the duty OF the United States 70
send either warships or army trans
ports 10 the nearest German port 10
bring them home. While the govern
ment has possession OF the railroads, II
can be stated ON authority that il will
be willing to provide transportation for
the refugees to reach the coast n the
United States will send ships. While all
harbors are closed and mined the gov
eminent would furnish pilots TO bring
the transports into the harbor where
, they could load the refugees.
The police regulations against for
eigners are being rigidly enforced.
Ambassador Gerard has furnished all
of his countrymen with temporary
passports pending the arrival of addi-
! tional official blanks from America.
He and Mrs. Gerard remain on almost
constant duty at the embassy. and a
number of American school teachers,
who have run out of funds, have been
provided with quarters by Mrs. Ger
ard
The city is quiet. High officials of
/ the army and navy are the centres OF
/ interest as they rush TO and fro.
Members of the royal families are
cheered whenever they appear in
public. The government has taken
possession of all the food supplies in
the wholesale warehouses. Prices
have advanced. but there has been no
suffering.
An official decree places a maxi
mum price for all goods and warns
stOrekeepers that any who refuse pa
per money and insist on getting gold
or silver, will have their establish
ments closed by the police.
The Reichstag met today TO act on
the war budget and on the emergency
legislation necessitated by the war II
was announced in advance that at q
conference of the leaders of all of the

NEW YORK, Aug, 4.-The North
German Lloyd liner Kronprinz viii
helm painted a dark grey, is today
steaming along the Atlantic coast in
search of three German warships.
The liner has no passengers aboard,
but is carrying an enormous cargo
of coal and provisions.

sion was to locate the German war
ships and supply them with fuel and
provisions After passing the Am
brose Channel Light, she turned

the vessel may return here without
proceeding to Bremen.
With only her masthead and side
lights burning, the Kronprinz VIII
helm slipped from New York harbor
/ last night. Upon her forward deck
was a mysterious covered box, which
officers of the vessel said contained
an extra crank shaft but was be-
lieved to be a four-inch rifle.
Just outside the Ambrose Light. the
Kronprinz Wilhelm passed the Ward
Liner Segurance, from Santiago
Cuba. Officers Of the Segurance said
the wilhelm was then sailing with
only her masthead, port and starboard
lights burning. and was headed south
The destination Of the Wilhelm was
given as Bremen at the steamship
offices today, but II was understood in
shipping circles that she might be ex-
pected back in this port within few
days. Her real mission, IL is declared
is to supply the German cruisers

Their exact position is unknown
