EMBARGO PLACED ON BULLION AND
 ALL GOLD COIN
The President Modifies and Strengthens Recent Embar- go Order to Prevent Out flow of Money to Several Countries.
(By Review Leased Wire )

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-President Wilson tonight placed an embargo ef- fective September 10, on the expor- tation of coin, bullion and currency. At the same time he authorized the secretary of the treasury to license such exportations where, in the opin- ion of the federal reserve board, they were not harmful to the public intes- est.
 Absolute Control.
 The embargo. which applies to all nations. places absolute control over gold exports in the hands of Secre- tary McAdoo and the federal reserve board. Officials believe that the measure will go far toward conserving the huge store of gold accumulated in this country since the beginning of the war, a store which recently has been drown upon rather heavily by Japan, Mexico and Spain.
 Strict Embargo Unlikely.
 Strict adhesion to the embargo is regarded as unlikely and undesirable. Curtailment. however, of the free movement of gold to the Orient, ap- pears probable. For some time past treasury and reserve board officials have viewed with some concern the tendency of gold to flow away from the United States, a movement which started with the financing here of the allies.
 General Order Supplemented. ..
 The presidents proclamation amends and supplments his general export embargo proclamation of August 27. Appended to it is an exc cutive order providing that applica- tions for the exportation of coin, bull lion or currency shall be made to fed eral banks and passed upon finally by the federal reserve board.
 Exporth Exceed Imports.
 Within the five-week period ending August r, exports totalling s73.000.- GOO were more than four times as much as imported. The movement has been too recent, however. to ef- feet substantially the great volume of gold in this country. The present stock is S3.OOO. 100000 of which ap- proximately 0per cent. has been i'm ported since January. 1915.
 Huge Gold Supply.
 Imports of gold during the current year have totalled more than S53S,- 000.000. Exports were recently esti- mated to have approximated s300.000.- 900 or more than twice as much as the volume exported altogether in 1916. Much of this gold has gone to Japan, which has a balance of trade against the United States and recent ly exportat,ons to Spain have assumed large proportions.

AMERICA WILL
 NEVER TASTE OF
 DEFEAT IN WAR
Premier, David Lloyd George, Declares That United States Has Never Tasted Defeat,
 and Will Not in This War.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

BIRKENHEAD, Eng, Sept. 7.-Pre- mier Lloyd George, in a speech nere today. on receiving the freedom of the city, declared that the whole allied cause and the freedom of the world de- pended on supremacy at sea and that he was certain it would be maintained.
 German Sub Menace.
 The premier asserted he was abso- lutely convinced that the German sub marine never would be able to beat down the strength of the British em- pire or beat down the hopes of the al liance by means of all the efforts the Germans could make with the sub marine.
 Patience Say Premier.
 The premier said that the news from Russia in the last few days had not been good However. through all we must exercise patience" he added. Dark as may be the clouds in the Russian sky" he said, there is sun shine on the banners of the allies in all other theatres of the war Ger many may boast her victories in the east against unresisting forces but she has her reply in the success of the allies in the west and especially the recent successe of the Italians.
 Conserve Strength.
 With the whole united strength of our people we will win" the premier added, but we shall only just win. It will need all our strength, so don't let us throw it away It is a mighty force that it has set itself to destroy this empire and it will take all our strength to beat it."
 The Great Republic.
 Beyond and behind all these things" said MT. Lloyd-George, ''comes the great republic of the west. Her in stinct taught her that freedom is in real jeopardy and you can hear the tramp of her men and the hammering of her anvils. The central powers are dealing. and they know it, with country that has never yet been beat en, a country of infinite resources; a country where you have the qualities that make for enterprise and endur- ance.
 No Defeat For America.
 Defeat would be new experience for America, and she has no taste fot ir. (Cheers)
 Unless I am mistaken the news coming from America she is taking steps that will once more infiict that experience upon foes.
 The Stony Path.
 For all these reasons l ask you to be of stout heart. There may be stony paths to climb, but we will climb them. Our footpaths may be stained with blood but we will reach the heights and then in front we see the rich val leys and plains of the new world"

propose that Representatives Of the
belligerent powers convene at an
early date at some place on neutral
ground.
''The imperial and royal govern.
ment likewise concurs in the opinion
of the President that only after the
termination Of the present war will 1t
be possible to undertake the great and
desirable work OF tho prevention of fu-
ture wars. At an appropriate time II
will be willing to cooperate with the
United States OF America for the real
isation OF this noble aim"
Switzerland, In note to all
OF the warning powers, announced
its support OF President Wilson'S
appeal for a discussion of peace
terms. saying II would consider
itself happy II It could act in any
way. no matter how modest. for the
rapprochement OF the peoples now
engaged In the struggle. and for 4

Madrid.-The note addressed to
Germany on the submarine question
by the Spanish government reviews
at length the policy Of Madrid from
the time the first Spanish ship. the
Isidoro, was torpedoed in August. 1918.
1t declares that the Spanish govern
ment has always maintained that 1t
was illegal to destroy prizes, as is the
constant practice Of submarines. and
that the cabinet also demanded the
observation Of the declaration Of Lon
don. notably Article so. In which II is
maintained submarines violate by
abandoning the crews Of sunken ships
to the mercy Of the waves far from
the land.
The note further recalls the vigor
OF the representations Of the Spanish
government. which. 1t says. sometimes
caused the Berlin government to be
surprised at the radical attitude Of
Spain, whose protests. It Is hoped.
have been more energetic than those
OF any other neutral state. even the
United States. With regard to the
contraband question the note says:
What the Spanish government
does not admit is the central empires

which have always complained and

The note concludes with an an
nouncement that further steps are be-
