FAKE NAMES ARE GIVEN
BY THOSE AIDED BY U. S.
False Addresses Used in Getting
Funds in Europe at Out
break of War.

NEW YORK. November 2.-Publica-
ton here of the list of delinquents who
borrowed money from the United States
government in order to get home from
Europe when the war started did not
cause any rush to the United States
subtreasury office to repay the funds
loaned OF the names made public by
the Secretary of the Treasury, 552 were
supposed to be residents of New York
city. Their names are on file in the
subtreasury here, and few of the
debtors called there and promised to
pay later.
A random investigation of some of
the names and addresses contained in
the list showed that many of the bor-
rowers were not residents of New York.
but gave fictitious names and addresses
Some of them never returned to this
country. In several instances where
hotel addresses had been given. the
borrower was not registered at the
hotels. Others could not be found at
apartment houses given as their homes
One of the borrowers had been living
in Paris for five years. Another gave
an empty lot as his address. Others
had gone west, or declared they were
never in Europe.
A few of the delinquents who were
found at the addresses they had given
pleaded hard times, and said they would
pay up as soon as they could.

LONDON, November "A dispatch to
the Star from Rotterdam says:
1T Is understood that Gen. Sauberz-
weig. military governor of Brussels.
who Is generally believed to have been
responsible for the final refusal to
grant the American minister's request
for the postponement of the execution
of Miss Edith Cavell, has been removed
from Office and a new military gov
ernor appointed"
His Rule Severe.
Gen. Sauberzweig has left Brussels,
and his successor. whose name has not
yet been learned. has been appointed.
according to a Rotterdam dispatch to
the Daily Telegraph, which says that
Sauberzweig. who is a Prussian cav
airy officer, succeeded Gen. Won Krae-
well about a month ago. His accession.
the dispatch adds. introduced new
note of severity. which eliminated in
the execution of Edith Cavell. He sign
ed the death sentence and kept the
matter a secret, which permitted the
execution before any appeal could sue
coed.
His last proclamation threatened Sc
we're penalties for concealment of arms.

further says. that last week the en-
peror made a tour of the principal

NO EVIDENCE OF MATERIAL PROG.
GRESS OF NEGOTIATIONS.
Report That AnglO-French Commits
sion Is Preparirg to Report
Is Denied.

New York, Sept. 25.-Little, if any,
progress was made today in the nego-
tiations toward establishing a half
billion-dollar credit loan to Great Brit
ain and France. Many American bank
ers who have been in consultation with
the Anglo-Frencn financial commission
did not visit the financial section.
No one in close touch with the sit
uation could be found who would deny
a generally credited rumor that the
commission had submitted to the Brit
ish and French governments the rough
draft of terms satisfactory to American
bankers. The general belief was that
reply would be received on Monday.
One report that was definitely denied
was that the commission intended to
depart for Europe next Saturday.
