RIGID CENSORSHIP IN
 ITALY DURING WAR
Believed Loan Will Be F1oated at Home or Abroad to Meet
 Needs of Nation. 4@

Rome, May 23, 11:25 D. m., via Paris, May "A, $50 a. m.-Details con- cerning ItaIy's declaration of war against Austria Hungary were given by Foreign Minister Sonnino this (Sunday) afternoon at a cabinet coun- cil which lasted three hours.
 Baron Sonnino referred particu- larly to the relations between Italy and Germany, expressing the belief that the latter would declare war as soon as official information was re- ceived regarding Italy's action against her ally. The council did not con- sider military questions, as they have entrusted entirely to the general staff, which will work in harmony with the commanders of the allies forces Financial measures were taken up and it is believed loan will be foated either at home or abroad sufficient to meet the. needs of the nation.
 A royal decree has been publishl providing for a rigid censorship, ex- tending to letters, newspapers, tele- grams, telephone messages and par eel post packages. The decree also restricts personal liberties, especially as regards public meetings.

ALL ITALY EAGER
 TO FIGHT AUSTRIA
Thousands Of Volunteers Proffcr Their Services to National Cause
 Students Anxious to Enlist.

On the Italian Frontier, May 23, via Paris, May 24, 5:35 a. m.-A day Of suspense which brought with it the long expected actual declaration of war against Austria Hungary found all Italy eager for the conflict. Thou sands Of volunteers proffered their services to the national cause. Stu. dents not yet called to the colors but anxious to enlist, besieged the mili- tary authorities. Announcement had been made that volunteers eighteen years of age or older, who are phy- sically fit, will be accepted by the government for the duration of the war.
 Members of Yacht clubs and boat clubs in all parts of the kingdom, al- most to a man offered the govern ment their services and the use of their craft.
 Persons in all walks of life pledged their services to the Red Cross ana gifts of all kinds were received by that organization.
 Intense indignation has been caused by reports that thousands of Italians have been detained at stations along the Austrian and German frontiers, and there subjected to i'll treatment.
 A train load of Italians arriving at Cermons, near Goritz, are reported to have been driven into a field by Austrian gendarmes, and forced to re- main all night in heavy rain with out shelter or food. Several children are said to have died because of this experience. The woman and children were prnitted to cross into Italian territory the next day, but all the men were detained.

HOPES AMERICANS MAY
 SHOW PATH TO PEACE
Continued from First Page,

one another, we shall understand one another, and the bonds between the Americas will be such bonds that no influence that the world may produce in the future will ever break them.
 Welcome From Heart.
 eff I am selfish for America, at least hope that my selfisllness is en- frightened. The selfshness that hurts the other party is not enlightened selfishness. If I were going upon mere ground of selfishness, I would seek to benefit the other party and 50 tie him to myself; so that even if you were to suspect me of selfishness, hope you will also suspect me of in- telligence and of knowing the only safe way for the establishment of the things which we desire and which we would feel honored if we could earn and win.
 "I have said these things because they will perhaps enable you to under stand how far from formal my well come to this body is. It is a welcome from the heart, it is welcome from the head, it is welcome inspired by what I hope are the highest ambitions for those who live in these two great continents, who seek to set an ex- ample to the world in freedom of in stitutions, freedom of trade and intel ligence of mutual service.'
 The opening session of the confer ence was given over to speeches of welcome by President Wilson and Sec- retary Bryan and responses from the delegations of each invited country. Next came reception to the delegates and their families in the east room of the White House.
 Features of Program.
 Addresses by Secretaries McAdoo and Redfield and Postmaster General Burleson, remarks by invited guests, and the announcement of Group committees by MT. McAdoo, were the features of the program arranged for the afternoon session.

SCORES ITALY FOR
 DECLARATION OF WAR
Austrian Emperor Charges "1eIfldy Khlse LIkenS(OTy Does Not Know"

London, May A, 5:45 a. m.-A Reuter- despatch from Amsterdam says the Vienna Zeitung publishes the fol- lowing autograph letter from Emperor Francis Joseph to Count Karl Stuer gkh:
 Dear Count Stuergkh: I request you to make public the attached man ifesto to my troops:
 Charges Italy With Perfidy.
 " Vienna, May 23-Francis Joseph to his troops:
 < The king of Italy has declared war on me. Perfidy whose like his- tory does not know was committed by the Kingdom of Italy against both allies. After an alliance of more than thirty years duration, during which it was able to increase its ter ritorial possessions and develop itself to an unthough of ffourfshing cendi- ton, Italy abandoned us in our hour of danger and went over with flying colofs into the camp of our enemies
 We did not menace Italy; did not curtain her authority; did not attack her honor or interests. We always responded Loyalty to the duties of our alliance and afforded her our protec- tion when she took the field. We have done more. When Italy directed covetous glances across our frontier we, in order to maintain peace and our alliance relation, we resolved on great and painful sacrifices which par ticularly grieved our paternal heart But the covetousness of Italy, which believed the moment should be used, was not to be appeased so fate must be accommod odated.
 Confident of Success.
 ( My armies have victoriously with stood mighty armies in the north in ten months of this gigantic conflict in most loyal comradeship of arms with our illustrious ally. 4 new and treacherous enemy in the south is to you no new enemy. Great mem- cries of Novara, Mortaro and Lissa, which constituted the pride of my youth; the spirit of Radetzky, Arch duke Albrecht and Tegetthoff, which continues to live in my land and sea forces, guarantee that in the south also we shall successfully defend the from tiers of the monarchy.
 '' T salute my battle-tried troops who are inured to victory. I rely on them and their leaders I rely on my people for whose unexampled spirit of sacrifice my most paternal thanks are due. I pray the Almighty
