mctto club on Thursday, February

Cities" and it was presented in a.
manner that pleased all his hearers.
He told of the trip abroad of men,
bers of the American Civic association
to study conditions in Europe, where
congestion of population in cities is
so much greater than in America.
Germany was considered first; and
the fact brought out that most of the
people in German cities seem to pre-
fer to live in large apartment houses.
There are no suburban districts in
Berlin, but an abrupt change from
closely built up streets to farms.
About Dresden are some suburban
districts. where semi-detached villas
may be had.
Near Essen, the Pittsburg of Ger.
many, is very remarkable garden
city of 700 acres, approached by a
beautiful bridge. This town was plan.
ned by a noted German architect
who utilized all the natural beauties
Of the place and adapted his plans for
streets and houses to the topography
Of the region. the houses being con-
5tructed of red brick with their mar.
row gables turned toward the streets,
which are tagged. 1t was planned to
this village with trees, which
should be maintained and utilized for
paying the expense of the municipal
and eventually eliminate
axes.

SALE OF ARMS UPHELD
United States Refuses Embargo and
Tells Austria Ban on Munitions
Would Plunge World Into
MiIitarism,

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE State
Department made public the reply of
the United States, rejecting views set
forth by the Austro-Hungarian gov
ernment in a recent note contending
that expectation of war munitions
from America to Austria's enemies
was conducted on such scale as to
be mot in consonance with the def
milton of neutrality"
Though friendly in tone the note
flatly denies the Hungarian
contentious and recalls that that coun.
try and Germany furnished munitions
of war to Great Britain during the
Boer war. when England's enemies
could not import such supplies.
1t insisted that the American gov
ernment is pursuing a strictly neutral
course and adhering to principle
upon which it would depend for muni'
tions in the markets of the world in
case it should be attacked.

Revolt l: at End, Say Governors.

Washington. = simultaneously with
the forwarding of the pan-American
appeal. word was received from E.
Paso that six states and one territory
of Mexico have declared through their
military governors that the revolution
is at an end in as far as they are
concerned. Carranza and Villa OF
other forces in arms would be met
by resistance should they attempt tc
enter these precincts of Mexico.
Troops in these precincts will be re.
turned to peaceful pursuits. According
to the report. the declaration of the
military governors was made with a
view to preserving the integrity OF
the autonomy of their communal or.
ganizations to enable them to enter
peace negotiations without factional
allegiance as between Carranza, villa
or Zapata. The governors who thus
declared for armed neutrality are OF
various shades of political affiliation.

one battery of At howitzers to
Brownsville from Fort Sill, Oklahoma.
Mexican soldiers entered American
territory fifteen miles west of Nogales
and began slaughtering cattle, accord
ing to a report from the Harrison
ranch, on the border. Three automo-
biles loaded with armed men started
for the scene soon after the report
arrived.
Washington, Aug. 17.-War Depart
ment officials continued to keep close
watch on the Mexican border situa-
tion. Additional troops ordered from
Texas City and Fort Sill were NOV
