London, Aug. 91.--An agency dis
patch from Athens says that subma-
rine of the Allies has blown up por-
ton of the bridge between CONSTANT
nople and the suburb Of Galata. 1t is
not apparent whether this is merely an
echo of the similar report of several
weeks ago, which brought forth a de-
NAL from COnstantinople.
The Galata Bridge of CONSTANT
nople, reported damaged by an Eng
lish submarine, is the main artery
connecting the two great divisions Of
the Turkish capital. With similar
wooden bridge further up the Golden
Horn il provides the only means OF
communication between Stamboul-
the old city where the great mosques,
the government offices and the rail-
road station are situated and the two
districts Of Galata and Pera, the
European quarter where the foreign
embassies and several great bar
racks are located.
Its destruction would prove as seri-
Gus a blow to the Turks as the ruin
ing of the Brooklyn Bridge to the de-
tenders of New York, if the East River
were crossed by only one other span,
of wooden construction and barely
capable of supporting train OF motor
trucks.
Famous for the multitude of ORR
entails of every type who constantly
crossed and recrossed, the old Galata
bridge, built of wood on iron pontoons,
bore the brunt of unceasing traffic for
forty years. Then a contract was
placed in Germany for new floating
bridge of steel.

With the Serbs, the Greeks hate the
Bulgars. Outside of that they have

Bulgaria insisted always that she
went into the first Balkan war TO free
the Bulgarian subjects from Turkey.
The second Balkan war took that ter
ritory, and more, away from her. she
has never been satisfied since. Her
comitaies have been at work cease
lessly, and Serbs and Greeks have been
constantly on the lookout all along
their borders. Small encounters take
place weekly and oftener.
Serbia has concentrated large num-
bers Of first line troops near the iron

Bulgarian raids have taken place since

LOWEST In HISTORY

course. Officially, neither Great Britain
ror her fnanciers have given an ink
ling to bankers here of what they in
tend to do to remedy the situation.
When the dcputaton Of British
bankers reaches New York on its mis-
sion TO straighten the market, they
will come with plan, il was authori-
tatively said tonight. of which their
associates in New York are wholly in
ignorance.
In this connection il was learned to-
night that some of the biggest inter
national banking houses in New York
had pointed out, in their cable confer
encea TO London financiers three weeks
ago, the danger that lurked ahead, and
had suggested a course which, If pur-
sued, would have steadied the markets
for month or until permanent meth
DDS of correction could be applied.
That cable message, IL was said. had
been wholly ignored. To this day,
there has been no reply 70 il.
London has not awakened TO the full
measure OF the situation in the opin-
ion Of most international bankers here.
The hardness of English bankers. il
was said is being paid for in British
gold at rates extremely dear. The de-
probation Of the pound sterling, il was
emphatically asserted. is not costing
American manufacturers one penny,
for all bills payable by Great Britain
here are payable in dollars. London
bankers and buyers are paying the toll

Where foreign money values were
headed. TO what new low levels they
would plunge if allowed to follow their
present tendency, no man in Wall
Street was prepared 20 say tonight.
The high tide OF foreign bills is on
its way to New York now. By the end
Of next month a food of bills for cot
ton and wheat will deluge the markets.
This movement is hardly yet on its
way. Its sweep will be tremendous
far greater. il was thought. than the
great current OF war munition bills
that has undermined the markets-and
bankers here conjured up a mental pict-
ure of English pounds selling at or
around 81. unless the rate were bull
warked soon By a mammoth credit
loan.
Never within the memory OF man
have the foreign exchange markets
been so thoroughly demoralized before
as yesterday. One big banking house
quoted rate on sterling TO a bank
at Havana shortly before the market

opened. By the time Havana could
accept the rate was five cents lower
The tendency of the market was so
evident that spectators caught the
spirit Of excitement and participated,
adding to the Generalization. In some
instances, even messengers, attendants
and clerks pooled their interests and
sold sterling, figuring that they
couldn't lose. And they didn't. Scores
of transactions of this sort, it was
conservatively estimated, occurred dur
ing the day.
A comparison of rates quoted yester-
day, the last Of August. with those
that prevailed August 2. the first bust
ness day of the month, showed the
great depreciation which twenty six
days has wrought in the chief foreign
moneys. This comparison follows:
Sterling To-day, S4.55h; August 2,
SAC. a loss Of 2OA cents. Francs
To-day, $500; August 2. S5.7l, a loss
Of 33 cents. Lires To-day, S6.b4; Au-

of an aeroplane company, whose plant,
in course of erection, will manufact-

Wrecking Of Galata Bridge
Would Impair Turk Defence

The present Galata Bridge was
built in sections up the Golden Horn,
the pontoon type being adhered to ow-
ing TO the fact that the stream is more
than one hundred feet deep The
German engineers, working by might,
gradually substituted section after
section of the new bridge for the old.
The wooden structure was later
moved upstream, where it still serves
as an auxiliary means Of communities
ton.
The opening OF the new bridge was
set for the Sutan's birthday, in
April, 1912. On that morning, how
ever, when the central section was
foated into place. 1t was found to be
three feet higher than the rest of the
bridge. Water was pumped into the
pontoons until the faulty portion
settled into line, and the opening
ceremony was carried out. The de-
feet was later remedied.
With the bridge destroyed, the local
steamers would have TO seek else
where to make their landings, for the
structure is lined with floating quays.
II the bridge is badly wrecked, all the
shipping that has taken refuge up the
Golden Horn and warcraf. in the naval
base there will be bottled up, for
access is only gained by night when the
central pontoon is hoated back.
Transporting troops would be a
serious problem without big bridge,
for there are no ferries of any con-
siderable size and the caiques. or
rowboats carry only eight passengers
each. The entire transportation sys-
TEN of the capital would be practi-
cally paralyzed until German en-
gineers could rig up temporary
structure.

demands This was learned from an
authoritative source. close TO the Ger
man Ambassador
Count Won Bernstorff has been in al
most constant communication with the
Berlin Foreign Office. The tenor Of
the messages was Of such nature
that they did not go through the reg
ular routine Of the German summer
embassy az Cedarhurst. but were sent
10 the ambassador direct at the Ritz
Carlton Hotel. Both Prince Won HAITI

Of the embassy. respectively. spent the
day az the Ritz Carlton, aiding the am
bassador in preparing the memoran-
dunn which ne will present 10 Secretary
OF State Lansing.
when asked for an outline Of the
communication which he will present TO
the State Department tomorrow. Count
Won Bernstorf said:
81 cannot at this time make any
statement out of courtesy TO your gov
eminent and in justice TO my govern
ment when the proper times comes
the press will be duly spprised OF de-
velopments."
Dr. Constantin Dumba, Austrian Am
bassador 20 this country, paid feeting
visit 20 the city Yesterday. He arrived
at the St Regis Hotel carly in the
morning from his summer home in
LenoX and conferred with members OF
the Austro~ Hungarian Embassy staff.
Count Won Bernstorf and Ambassador
Dumba had luncheon together at the
Plaza Hotel. This gave rise 10 the re-
port that Germany is about TO join
Austria in her recent protest against
the American expectation OF arms and
GmmUnitions. which has been rejected
by this government
From reliable sources II is learned
that Count Won Bernstorf will inform
Secretary Lansing that the German
government is not prepared TO raise
its embargo against shipments OF goods
10 the United States. although Great
Britain has declared her willingness
20 permit some cargoes destined for
America 20 pass This action, II IS
pointed out. was decided on by the
German authorities because Germany
does not officially recognize the Brit-
ish blockade and raising Of the en-
barge by her would be practical
recognition % the blockade.
pr Frederic Elder, private secretary
10 Count Won Bernstorf, said last night
that the German Embassy would re
move TO Washington within the next
two or three weeks. Although spacious
quarters have been reserved for Count
Won Bernstorff in the large sumner
home Of the German Embassy at
Cedarhurst, Long Island, the embassa-
dor has occupied them only two or
three nights during the last three
