Working with lightning speed, one OF
the bandits uncoupeld the mail car from

the engineer to pull the detached sec

about 200 yards. They obtained entrance
to the mail ear by threatening to blow
it to bits with nitro -glycerine and by
the same tactics obtained the registered

veg declared in his speech before the
reichstag today.
The chancellor did not refer to pos
sible peace. His address lacked tho
hopeful tone of some of his former
speeches before the German lawmak-
ing body, but was enthusiastically ap'
plauded.
He touched first on the diplomatic
history of the Italian and Rumanian
declarations of war, recalling that
after Italy declared war on Austria,
Germany announced that the Italians
would find German troops fighting
with the Austrians on the Italian from

"Thus state of war practically ex-

followed later" said the chancellor.

fateful consequences which her eco

suffered after the war.

Berlin, Sept. 2S.-Interest centered
on Chancellor Won Bethmann-H Hollweg
and the fight to be waged against him
when the German reichstag recon
vened today for three weeks session.
Great crowds pushed toward the
reichstag building to hear the chancel-
lor's opening speech, in which he was
expected to throw down the gauntlet
to his critics.
Before the session began, an anti
Hollweg leader declared that if the
chancellor promises a strong policy to-
ward England he will receive the sup.
port of the majority of the members
This leader would not be more specific
There were indications that the gov.
ernment's critics apparently are will
ing to get together and bury the
Ratchet, if possible, to avoid an open
fight in the reichstag that might be
misinterpreted in foreign countries.

London, Sept. 2S.-There is no end

"More than at any time since tne

throughout England popular suspi'
cion toward America, suspicion that
did not exist year ago. This feeling
appears directly attributable to the
notion generally entertained by the
streets that President Wilson might be
induced to butt in for the purpose OF
stopping the European war. A similar
suspicion of Spain and the vatican Is
also manifest
