Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Aug, 4.-The
Cedar Rapids National Bank was
robbed of $21, 800 early today by a
lone robber. who, at the point of a
revolver, compelled Leo Perrin, the
paying teller, to open the vaults. The
robber afterwards locked Perrin up.
Perrin was discovered a prisoner in
the vault about fifteen minutes later,
in state of temporary insanity. His
condition was said to be serious.
Perrin was in the bank at $50 a.
m. for currency shipments for the
banks of neighboring towns, and had
just opened the outer door of the
vault when the man stepped before
him, held a revolver to his head and
ordered him to open the inside doors.

safe was reached the bandit calmly
helped himself and then slammed
the door.

RY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Aug. 4.-Germany's
note on the United States protest
over sinking the American ship Will
liam P. Frye, was made public to-
night, and reiterates Germany's con-
tention that the Prussian-American
treaty was not violated in sinking the
ship, and neither was international
law. Germany also reiterates its will
ingness to pay for the ship, provided
payment will not be viewed as salts
faction for a violation of American
rights.
If this is unsatisfactory Germany
suggests arbitration at The Hague.
Germany is willing that; two experts
fix the value Of the Frye.
Unofhcially it is believed the United
States will accept payment of what
azthe two experts think right with
the express provision that it is not .
waiver of treaty rights for which
the United States contends.
Germany contends the treaty pro-
vides only that the United States and
Germany pay each other for sinking

WARSAW HOLDS DESPITE
GATHERING OF THE TEUTONS
Allies Hope Russian Base
Can Yet be Saved From
Austro-G Germans.
RY ASSOCIATED PREss.

London, Aug. Rear guard fight
ing of the Russians to the northwest
of Warsaw has proved SO effective
that the German tide seems to have
been held up, while to the south Field
Marshal Won Mackensen's forces
pushing north from Lublin are being
badly battered.
The German emperor and his con-
sort, reported on their way to War
saw for a triumphant entry, have
had perforce to postpone the compile
ton of their trip.
The only Austro-German progress
on the Eastern front is toward Riga,
in the extreme north, and before
Ivangorod.
Warsaw still holds out and the hope
that the Polish capital may yet be
saved is becoming stronger among
the allies.
The German press explains that
with the daily frightening of com
munications, the problem of transport
and re-enforcements becomes more
complicated which accounts for the
delay. The efficiency of the Russian
rear guards blows is not disregarded
by the newspapers, however.
From Warsaw itself comes the op-
timistic prediction that if the city Is
able to endure a week longer-and
the dispatch was written four days
ago-the evacuation may be avoided
Although thousands of civilians have

most cf which was that in booking
the list of midway attractions it was
necessary to have the fair fall on
some week where there were no
counter attractions which would COM
pete for these attractions. It is also
believed that TIE farmers will be Is
better position to bring larger ana
more attractive exhibits to the fair.
