MAY RESUME NEUTRAL
TRADE BY AGREEMENT

Washington, Aug. "a gentle
mems agreement" probably will DE
entered into between Great Britain
and the United States permitting the
resumption of trade between export.
ers and importers of this country and
neutral European countries.
This is the conclusion drawn by
persons who have visited state depart
ment officials in the last few days for
the purpose of discussing the British
situation.
Great Britain is determined to de-
fend its orders-in-council to the last
extreme. The United States is equal
ly determined not to concede that
those orders are in accord with the
recognized principles of international
law.
On the differences which have al
ready risen the two countries are not
likely to agree during the course of
the war and these differences even
tually will be referred to arbitration
for settlement.
But Great Britain is vitally con-
cerned in maintaining the friendship
of the United States. The United
States is just as vitally concerned in
opening markets for its food products
but more particularly for the cotton
of the Southern planters.

WELCOME GERMANS WITHJOY
Residents of Warsaw Cheer Arrival
of invaders.

Berlin, Aug. 9.-The German troops
were welcomed to undamaged War
saw as liberators, according to the re
port forwarded to Berlin by Kurt
Aram, special correspondent of the
Lokal Anzeiger.
Aram places emphasis on the state
ment that the city was not evacuated
without a conflict. The forts were
protected by barbed wire, trenches,
pitfalls and mines against infantry
attacks.
The inhabitants of the Polish CAPT.
tai, the correspondent says, welcomed
the German troops with every sign of
real enthusiasm and rejoicing. The
streets were richly beflagged.
The Warsaw correspondent of the
Berliner Tageblatt confirms the re-
port that the German troops met with
a joyous reception. The streets, he
says, were filled with Poles, Jews,
Germans and Russians, who waved
their hats joyfully to the German sol.
diers.
The electric street cars were run
uing as usual the correspondent said,
and almost all the shops were open
ed. Very little damage has been
done to the city proper The earth
works about the forts show the Ger
man artillery made many fair hits.

Chicago police, signed a statement to
the police in which they say he con-

The motive for the crime, the pris-

Mielich kept concealed in his house,
where Areiszewski was a boarder.
The sight of his four murder victims
always haunted him, he said, and he
had for a long time considered giving

ALLIES SHOW ANXIETY
Realizing Seriousness of Situation
Entente Powers Renew Efforts to
Induce the Balkan States to Come
TO Their Assistance.

London, Aug. 9-EIolding the
bridgeheads at Warsaw over the Wis
tula river the most formidable mill
tary obstacle in Eastern Europe. Ger
conquered the river line and with it
invaded Russian territory for an aver
age depth of 100 miles along a front
from the Baltic TO Bukowina, are now
throwing their forces forward in an
endeavor to accomplish what Russia S
allies have so feared-the complete
development of the Russian armies.
The British press, basing its opin-
ions on Petrograd dispatches and the
lack of reports to the contrary from
either Berlin or Vienna, is inclined to
the view that the forces of Grand
Duke Nicholas retired from Warsaw
virtually intact; but there is an in
cIeasing disposition not TO minimize
the seriousness of the situation as it
still exists, and the anxiety of the
quadruple power seems to be mani
tested i'm renewed pressure to bring
the Balkan states in line on the side
of the entente powers.
Quiescent Sweden is now restless
and even so conservative a news
paper as the London Morning Post
finds cause for comment in Sweden s
growing hostility to Russia as slim
ulated by German success in Poland.
Sweden May Drift Into War.
"Emboldened by recent German
successes" the newspaper says, "the
latent hostility of Sweden, which has
never forgiven the loss of Finland
has become strongly developed. Con.
siderable preparations for warlike
contingencies have been made in
North Sweden and the Swedish army
is fully modified. If Sweden persists
in her unfriendly attitude toward
Russia she may rapidly drift into a
war which would inevitably be great
obstacle to her future progress"
The Times, in a long analysis OF
the Swedish situation, says the wal
party has lost its importance and the
people generally accept neutrality as
the wisest course.
Whether the present Balkan nego
tiations will be more fruitful from
the entente standpoint than were pre-
vious attempts to align these states
against Germany and Turkey is de
batable. especially so as Greece, ac
cording to an Athens dispatch quot
ing Premier Gounaris, refuses to con
slider the relinquishing of any terri
tory to Bulgaria, a conclusion which
might clear the situation.

Statement Declaring Real Purpose
of Mexican Revolution Ended With
Downfall of Huerta.
Washington, Aug. 9.-The Mexican
situation moved forward with two i'm.

General Carranza signified his will

peace conference, and an authoritative
announcement was made of the views
with which the United States is ap.

American conference.
The position of the United StRates
was officially stated as follows, that;
Neither Carranza nor any other
military faction in Mexico is in con-
troll of the country or can be consid
cred as triumphant in the republic.
THE real purpose of the revolution
was accomplished a year ago when
Huerta was overthrown and that the
strife which has continued since has
been over factional difficulties and has
not been in reality a revolution.
1T considers that General Villa,
while financially weakened, still is an
active element in Mexican affairs who
must be reckoned with in an adjust.
ment
THE so called cientificos do not en-
ter into the problem now because it
is considered that the overthrow of
Huerta disposed of that element
Country Not at Peace.
"The greater portion of Mexico is
not at peace, as General Carranza
claims, because fighting continues in
many sections from Tehauntepec to
the Rio Grande and from Vera Cruz
to MaZatlan.
That the first problem to be solv.
ed in the restoration of peace is to
find for provisional president a man
who represents the cause of the origi-
nal revolution against Huerta, but
any of the factions now at war"
This outline is the first authorita-

which the United States is proceed

Engineers Would Prevent
Repetition Of Flood.
CHANNEL TOO RESTRICTED
Federal Regulation Desired to Prevent
Further Filling In of Mill Creek,
Believed to Be Principal Reason for
Recent Catastrophe.

Erie, Pa, Aug. 9.-Eleven victims of
the recent flood were buried here
while Coroner Hanley and his depu-
ties were arranging for the inquest
over the victims of the disaster. En-
gineers are preparing data for pres
entation to the war department at
Washington with a view to federal
regulations that will prevent further
filling in of the Mill creek channel
and thus tend to avert repetition of
the disaster.
For years filling in of the Mill creek
channel has been in progress, while
many buildings were being added to
the number along the little stream.
This restriction of the flood waters to
so narrow a channel is believed by en-.
gineers to have been the principal
cause of the disaster.
The forces of men working in the
wreckage have been further increased
and hundreds of wagons were pressed
into service. Dynamite was brought
into use and such piles of debris as
did not yield readily were blown to
pieces.
The company of state constabulary
wass reinforced by twenty troopers
and careful watch was kept for loot
ers, although no arrests were reported
