DEFENDS NECHES SEIZURE
British Say Holding Cargo Is
Absolutely Legal.

London, Aug. 5.-Learning from the
comment on the recently exchanged
correspondence between the United
States and Great Britain that a mis-
apprehension has arisen with regard TO
the British note concerning the steam
err Neches, which, it was asserted, had
been interpreted as stating that the
cargo of the vessel had been seized as
a reprisal measure against Germany's
submarine policy, the Foreign Office
explains that the Misunderstanding
arises from the brevity of the note.
The seizure, the foreign Office says,
was not meant in the nature of a re-
prisal, but was based on the British
contention of the absolute legality Of
the Orders in Council, as explained in
the note Of July %, to which the
Neches note refers.
The Foreign Office also explains that
in stating that the British govern
ment does not yet know what steps
have been taken by neutral powers
against the German submarine policy
il did not mean to include the United
States, which, it says, has made public
its protest against this form Of war
fare.

tions for the appointment Of civil
governor and the installation OF a civil
administration centred at Warsaw are
almost complete, and will be announced
in a day or two. The governor will,
il is understood, be a prominent Ger
man magnatc. Some difficulties over
questions of precedence may arise, as
the civil governor necessarily must act
under the military commander, but
cannot outrank him. These questions,
however, may perhaps be settled by
the selection of member of the royal
house for the latter post.

GERMANY PUBLISHES
SECRETS" OF BELGIUM
Tries to Prove Double Dealing
by Diplomatic EXCERPTS.

Berlin, Aug. 5-(By wireless TO
Tuckerton. n J.)-"The Norddeutsche
Allgemeine Zeitung," according TO the
Overseas News Agency, has published
further documents purporting to be
secret Belgian diplomatic reports
found in Brussels by the Germans, COW
ering the period between 1905 and
1914.
The Belgian Minister in London, I'M
der date of Jan. IA, 1906, as quoted,
insisted that England was ready to as
sist France even in case of war during
the Moroccan crisis, which was then
acute.
The Belgian Minister in Berlin, on
April 5, 1906, wrote as follows: "rhe
English press did everything to OBJ
struct the results Of the Algeciras
Conference and was more irreconcil-
able than the French. These papers
never cease to discuss German plans
of aggression which do not exist"
The Belgian Minister in London I'M
der date Of March IS, 1907, wrote:
"The whole force of English diplomacy
is for Germany's isolation"
On March %, 1907 the Belgian Min
lister in Berlin reported: "Frsnch ar

worst days of the Second Empire.
This arrogance has increased

tween London and ST. Petersburg"

SEES NEW RUSSIA
AFTER WARSAW

London, Aug. 5.-Speaking to TO-
900 wclshmen at Bangor this after
noon before he heard Of the fall OF
Warsaw, David Lloyd George, Min
lister of Munitions, referred to the
situation in the east In these terms:
81 view Il with anxiety. but not
with dread. can see n ray OF hope
in the dark horizon-the regenera-
ton of the great people Of Russia.
Our enemies do not understand what
they are doing in the east. Their
mighty cannon are shattering the
rusty bars that fettered the soul Of
Russia.
"Look at Warsaw! What Is hap
pening behind that? The Russian
people are shaking themselves Tree
of sitting debris. their mighty limbs
preparing with new spirits and new
hope for a new land.
Austria and Prussia are doing To-
day for Russia what their military
ancestors did for France-they are
hammering a sword that will de-
stroy them"

"Warsaw has fallen!" From the bull
letin boards in Park Row where the
cry was taken up yesterday by Ter
mans and their sympathizers to the
hundreds of German gathering places
in the city, these three words ex-
messed volumes. II the Kaiser had
been crowned Car Of Europe the ella
ton felt among Germans in this city
at the occupation of Warsaw could not
have been greater.
This is the beginning of the end OF
the Allies." yelled an excited Teuton'
towering a head tall above the crowd
on Park Row. Now watch 'em put
the screws to the Car. And then it's
England's turn But he got no
further. The crowd yelled and hur-
rahed and ended all discussion.
WARSAW has fallen." Heavy. black
three-inch letters spread over the en-
tire width of the front page announced
this achievement Of German arms IN
the German papers. The whole page
was bordered with floral designs. as II
a victorious peace already had been
signed in Berlin. The German papers
announced that 100000 Russians had
fallen into the hands of the victors.
This increased the enthusiasm among
local Germans.
WARSAW has fallen!" was the much
toasted motto in the German cafes and
restaurants. While there were no pub
lie celebrations. the private celeora-
tions were all the more thorough.
"Stimmung" was everywhere. and
everybody was proud of the Father
land. III,
This is the end of Russia. She Will
now be forced to make a separate
peace soon" said q veteran major
nounding a table. "This will go down
in history as one of the greatest
achievements of the warfare of all
times" he continued. "The victory in
itself is severe shock to the Allies,
but the moral effect among people and
troops alike cannot be estimated. And
think of the enthusiasm which will
sweep through the German lands:
Wunderbarl Phenomenal! Proslt!
Here goes to the valiant German
boys!"
If Count Won Bernstorff, the Ger
man Ambassador, felt qualification at
the news of the fall of Warsaw, he
did not betray it at the Ritz Carlton,
.here he arrived yesterday morning
from Washington. After spending the
whole day in his apartments in consul
taton with attaches and other Ger
man officials, he took a little stroll
into the lobby last night.
At the newsstand faring headline,
announcing the fall of Warsaw,
caught his steady, steel-gray eyes. He
stopped-a whimsical smile was
traceable around the corners of his
mouth. But it was momentary.
He refused to express his opinion
on Warsaw's fall or to discuss the
story that he and Captain Boyd,
his naval attache, had conspired with
General Huerta to launch a revolution
in Mexico to sidetrack this country's
controversy with Germany.
Later it developed that, at Count
Won Bernstorff's express direction, no
more statements will be issued by any
member of the German Embassy or
the German consulates. Not even the
count himself will talk for publica-
ton in the future-that is, not di-
rectly.
