CITED ST. ALBANS CASE.
In Defense Of Plan to Keep Werner Horn
in Bangor.

Bangor, Me-, March ls.--Werner Horns
claim that his attempt to destroy the
international railroad bridge at Vance
boro on Feb. was an act Of war, Will
be argued before United States Commits
sioner Reid here to-day.
Counsel for Horn announced last night
that they would oppose his removal from
this city to Boston on the ground that
the case was one for the state depart
ment to act upon and not for the court.
Horns removal is sought by Assistant
|U S. District Attorney Leo A. Rogers
of Boston, on an indictment returned by
the federal grand jury in that city on
March 2. charging Horn with the legal
interstate transportation of dynamite.
Joseph +. OConnell of Boston, VINO
will appear for Horn, said that he would
contend that Horns trip from New York
TO the Canadian border was a raid sim
liar to that made by confederates on It.
Albans. Vt, from Montreal during tie
Civil war, when a bank was looted. The
British government then refused to sur
render the raiders, claiming that that
act was an incident OF the war.
In support of the contention Of the
defense. Horns counsel claim that the
prison holds a commission in the 18th
Prussian regiment in the German army.
Il will be argued there was no intent to
violate the laws Of this country and that
the only motive that Horn had in carry
ing the dynamite was 10 use it TO de-
stroy the railroad bridge and thereby
hamper the transportation Of war sup
plies from Great Britain.
In the event that the United States
commissioner should refuse 10 discharge
Horn from custody, his counsel said last
night that they would carry their APP
peal to the United States supreme court,
thereby delaying proceedings for at least
a year.
Canadian authorities already have
asked for Horns extradition on
charge OF destruction of Canadian rail
road property. The dynamite used by
Horn damaged but did not destroy the
Canadian end OF the bridge
He has been held in jail here on the
federal grand jury's indictment since
the expiration Of his sentence of 20
davs in the Machias iail for damage
caused TO American property by the
explosion.

BELGIUM DENIES
NEUTRALITY BREACH
Issues Protest Against German Claim
and Says No French Force Had En-
tered Belgium Before Out
break of the War.

Belgium. March ls.-The Belgium
government yesterday issued a protest
against the German allegation that docl-
ments found in the archives at Bl1ls-
sells showed that Belgium had forfeited
her neutrality before the outbreak OF the
war. After recounting the conversations
which took place between the British
and Belgian military officers in 1906 ana
I0l2, which as previously stated by SIR
Edward Grey, the British foreign min
ister had preference only to the situa-
ton that would be created II Belgian
neutrality had already been violated
the Belgian protest says;
"The Belgian government declares on
its honor that not only was no conven-
ton ever made but also that neither
OF the two governments ever made any
advances or propositions concerning the
conclusion of any such convention. More
over, the minister of Great Britain at
Brussels, who alone could contract en-,
gaeements in her behalf, never inter
vened in these conversations and the
whole Belgian ministry are ready 70
pledge themselves on oath that no con-
clusion arising from these conversations
was ever brought before the cabinet or
even laid before one single member OF
it
"The documents which the Germans
discovered give evidence OF all this. Their
meaning is perfectly clear provided that
no part of them is either garbled or sup
pressed. In face of the calumnies re-
peated again and again our government
faithfully rejecting Belgian uprightness
considers that it is its duty to mtlict
once more on the spoiler of Belgium the
brand OF infamy, his only legitimate re-
ward.
1T also takes the opportunity of de-
claring in answer to allegations whose
malevolence is obvious, that:
First Before the declaration of war,
no French force, even OF the smallest
size had entered Belgium and no trust
worthy evidence can be produced to con-
tradict this affirmation.
'Second-Not only did Belgium never
refuse the offer of military help offered
bv one OF the guaranteeing powers, but
after the declaration OF war she earn.
estly solicited the protection OF her guar
antors.
"Third-When undertaking, as was her
duty, a vigorous defense of her fort
resses, Belgium asked for and received
with gratitude such help as her guaran'
tors were able to place at her disposi-
ton for that defense.
Belgium, the victim of her own 10y
atty. will now bow her head before any
power. Her honor defies assault of false
hood. She has faith in the justice Of
the world. On the day of judgment the
triumph belongs to the people who have
sacrificed everything to serve with con-
scientiousness the cause of truth, right
and honor"

AUSTRIAN EMPEROR
SAID TO BE OBDURATE
Virtually Has Broken OF
Negotiations of Prince
Won Buelow in Behalf of
Policy of Non-Interven-
ton by Italy - German
Loss at Neuve Chappelle
Was Severe

Unofficial reports indicate that the re-
lations between Italy and Austria are
becoming more unsettled. The status OF
the negotiations between the Italian gov
ernment and Prince Won Buelow on be-
half of austria and Germany is now in
doubt. the assertion having been made
that Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria
has virtually broken them off.
The operations of the allied fleet
against the Dardanelles are being carried
on slowly and carefully, and French Of
hcer is quoted as saying that at least
another month would be devoted to an
effort to silence the Turkish fortihca-
tions. The attack on Symrna is ex-
planned as a design to prevent the troops
there from proceeding to the Dardanelles,
as we'll as to cut the communications of
the Turkish army which was sent against
Egypt.
The official British account of the re-
cent fighting at Neuve Chapelle gives an
idea of the ferocity of the attack. The
town was laid in ruins. No estimate is
given Of the British losses, but it is said
that in two sections near the town $500
bodies of German soldiers were counted.
A Vienna despatch concerning Pre-
mysl is in disagreement with the Petro-
grad message o. yesterday, to the effect
that the Galician fortress would fall
within few days 1t is said that Rus
sian attacks are made only at rare in
tervals and tnat the Austrian defenders
