COUNT BERNST TORFF
Gets VERY BUSY
AND ADVISES THE I'M
PERIAL GOVERNMENT
THE UNITED STATES
MEANS BUSINESS.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 19.-
President Wilson's long expected
final warning to Germany that the
United States will break off dplo.
matte relations unless she abandons
her present methods of submarine
warfare and Immediately declares her
intention to do so, was delivered to-
day in note to Berlin and was an
nounced by the President in an ad-
dress to a joint session of Congress.
The President demands nothing less
than the abandonment of submarine
warfare against commerce. Both the
Presidents address and the Ameri-
can note declare in unequivocal
terms that olly by Germany acceding
to the demand can the breaking off of
relations be prevented. The Presi.
dent considers that the next step de-
pends solely upon Germany and that
three or four days constitute a rea-
sonable time for a reply. He is will
ling to discuss how submarine war
fare may be conducted within the
limits of international law and hui
manity after Germany abandons her
present methods. Diplomatic history
records but one instance as yet
where breaking of relations between
two first class powers has not even
tually brought war-that which now
exists between Germany and Italy.
Attitude of Congress.
Congress received the Presidents
declaration of his course with mixed
evidences of concern and approba-
ton. Most of the leaders, Democratic
and Republican, thought the Presi.
dent hardly could do less, and some
expressed the opinion that his action
would not lead to war.
Republican Leader Mann alone, of
all the opposition leaders, openly at
tackled the President for his stand.
He characterized it as a political play.

Lighting a Train.

II is always "a source of wonder where
the passenger traiu, speeding over the
rails at fifty miles an hour, secures the
electricity for its lighting plant. And,
if you explain that the train makes its
own current as it runs along, it is
equally mystifying where it gets its sup
ply when the train is standing still,
with the engine Gu; off,
An electric lighting plant for a mod.
ern passenger train consists of small
Curtis turbine generator, driven by
steam direct from the locomotive boiler,
or geared to a truck axle of one of the
coaches. OF course, a small storage
b ttery is necessary in either case, as
the train would be in darkness when
not running or when the engine was
switching. This storage battery is To-
Gated in the baggage car, and takes up
very little room. The coaches are wired
just the same AS a house.
Electricity is used tor driving fans, as
well a. for livhliug, and on some of the
finest trains electric cooking ranges are
installed in the dining cars.-Moi gan.

be over at present as 1t is much clearer
