WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 4.-The
state department officials were busy
all today preparing an answer to Great
Britain's reply to the latest American
Representations against interference
with neutral commerce. The reply to
Great Britain is embodied in two docu>
ments and totals 1000 words.
The British note refuses to accept
the American Interpretation as to
England's warfare on shipping. Great
Britain insists that blockading neutral
ports against the shipment of German
made goods is not violation of inter
national law.
England expresses the intention Of
enforcing the orders of the admiralty
against goods originating in Germany
or in territory controlled by the
Kaiser, but will attempt to discrimi-
nate so as not hurt the neutral ma

LOCKS TELLER IN SAFE
Gets $4,000 LOOT
(By Associated Press J

CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, Aug. A
lone bandit robbed the Cedar Rapids
National bank of $21,30O today, after
holding up the solitary teller who had
been left in charge of the bank, lock-
ing him in one of the big vaults of
the institution.
The bandit who was probably aware
of the habits of the banks officers and
employees, entered the building when
practically all of the clerical force
was at dinner, and did his work quick
ly. Presenting a revolver to the teller
in charge, the robber forced him into
the vault and closed the door. He
then piled the available cash into a
bag and escaped before being discov-
ered
Employees returning from lunch dis
covered the plight of the unfortunate
teller and he was released.

LONDON, Aug. 4.-The Russian
rear guard is effectively holding the
German advance and Warsaw is still
in the hands of the Russians. To the
south of Warsaw, General Mackensen's s
forces are being badly battered and
have begun retreat before the Rus
slams.
The only Teutonic advance on the
eastern front is near Riga ON the ex-
treme north and before Ivangorod.
The Allies are hopeful that the Teu-
tonic offensive has been broken and
the capital of Poland will be saved
The Berlin press blames the inabii-
ity of the officers at the front to es-
tablish communications and secure
supplies with the delay there. At the
same time the German press does not
ignore the ability of the Russians to
recuperate after seeming fatal blow
The Kaiser and Empress of Germany
have been forced to abandon plans for
the triumphal entry into Warsaw until
a more opportune moment"
The latest official dispatches direct
from Warsaw are dated four days ago.
They state that Warsaw will be saved
if she can hold the enemy off for
wweek.
