BRAZILIAN SHIP BELEM
REPORTED SUMMARIZED
Rumor Of New German Attack Not
lions Quoted for Present.

RIO DE JANEIRo. April IA report
Is current that the Brazilian steamer
Be1em has been torpedoed by q German
submarine, but this is without con-
hrmation.
With the exception Of Porto Allegro,
where there have been strikes and anti
German demonstrations. and Rio Claro.
where some disorders of little import
ance occurred. the manifestations in
Brazil have been of a purely patriotic
character. simply a protest against the
torpedoing of the steamer Parana. At
the present time order has been re-
BILE. however. to conceal the fact that
the calm Is rather on the surface: in
the present state of feeling the small
est event would cause an outburst
The delay in the departure of the
German minister, Herr PAUL., and the
German consuls. is attributed to va
rious causes, particularly the refusal
of Germany to guarantee the safety of
the steamer Rio Janeiro, which was
placed by the Brazilian government at
the disposal Of the German officials. It
was rumored tonight that Herr PAUL.
would go to Chile.
The situation with regard to the Ger
man ships in Brazilian ports is I'M
changed, but 1t is hoped that the gov
eminent will not delay in proceeding
with their definite seizure. It is ex
pected that the government will put
into effect certain important internal
measures.

MT. PLEASANT REJECTS
COMMUNITY GARDEN IDEA
Citizens Association, However, In
dorses Individual Planting.
Home Defense Recruits.

Rejecting plans to form COM
munity garden. the Mount Pleasant
Citizens Association unanimously in
dorsed the garden movement. and de-
cided to offer prizes for the best gar
dens in that section of the city.
Twenty dollars was appropriated for
prizes. and many of the citizens pres
ent at the meeting last night, which
was held in the Brown Betty Inn. 10th
street and Park road, declared their in
tention of offering individual medals.
The prizes will be open for competition
to all residents of the section. Both
boys and girls and 'grown-ups" will
be eligible.
c. Melvin Sharpe came to the defense
Of the boys of the city. after it had
been suggested that perhaps special
protection should be accorded the crops
Of the war-emergency gardeners of the
city.
Mr.. Sharpe declared that the boys of
Washington will not only take great in
terest in the gardens which are being
planted on all sides. but that the boys.
Tar from committing depredations, will
protect the gardens.
Community garden plans were regard
ed by the majority as not feasible. If
potatoes were planted. for instance. the
citizens seemed to think that they
would spend all summer chasing potato
bugs.
William L. Clarke suggested crops
that would not tempt boys to make
away with them, declaring that extra
police protection would cost more than
crops would be worth.
Twenty-Five members of the association
signed up for the home defense league
under direction Of Maj. Pullman. All the
members Of the association will be given
an opportunity to sign up.
Chairmen of standing committees Of the
association were authorized as a special
committee to make recommendations to
the Commissioners Of improvements for
Mount Pleasant. The question of large
holes In public lots in the section was re-
ferred to the committee on public health.
