AMERICANS HURRY HOME.
RESULT OF GERMAN NOTE

LONDON. February 2, 1910 pm
The German note has resulted in rush
of Americans to procure passage to
New York on the first available boat
Large numbers who expected to sail
within fortnight have decided to leave
Saturday. and before noon all the first
class accommodations on the steamer
were booked. Among those
applying for passage are 100 per-
sons who intend to sail on the Holland
America liner Nieuw Amsterdam
which was to have left Falmouth on
Tuesday. This vessel, however, has
been recalled to Rotterdam, whence she
sailed two days ago.
PARIS. February 2.-The American
embassy has sent message, to the
State Department at Washington for
instructions respecting Americans in
France who may ask counsel as to how
they are to return home. About $500
Americans now are in Paris. according
to the passport records. Most of them
have residences here, occasionally visit
ing the United States. They are for the
most part engaged in business reQuir-

PROVIDES BUILDING
. OF 100 SUBMARINES

Immediate construction Of 100 suoma-
rines, eighty for coast defense and twenty
for fleet operations, was proposed In
special bill introduced today by Senator
Poindexter of Washington. These would
be in addition to the eighteen submarines
proposed in the regular naval Dill now
pending in the House.
The bill would direct that not less than
six of the fleet submarines and not less
than twenty-five Of the coast submarines
would be built on the Pacific coast.
Pacific Coast Unprotected.
"Regardless of any recent interna-
tional incident" said Senator Poindex-
ter in presenting his bill, I want to
call attention to tho fact that the Pa
cific coast is in a wholly unprotected
condition. The submarine construction
directed in this bill would be entirely
supplementary to the construction pro-
gram outlined in the regular navy bill.
.If this should be passed the United
States would have about z0O service
able submarines. and that would be a
smaller number compared to other
great navies.
"The most complete guaranty Of
strength Of a nation is its defense at
sea. Mastery Of the sea Is complete de-
fense at home, and so we can afford to
spend this money for such an addition
to our navy. We cannot afford to neg
lect longer this element of defense"
One provision of the measure, which
was referred to the COMMITTEES on naval
affairs, would give the secretary Of the
ships either by private contract or. in
government wards.

NEW YORK, February 2.-Owners of
American vessels in transatlantic trade
probably will follow the example of the
ship owners of the entente nations and
abide by the instructions Of their gov
ernment in regard to running the risks
of the new German blockade regulations.
They awaited today the reply of the
State Department to a measure sent by
P. A. S. Franklin, president of the In
ternational Mercantile Marine. seeking
advice as to the future movements Of
steamships Of the American line. Un-
less orders to the contrary are received
from Washington the American liner
st Louis will sail from here Saturday
for Liverpool, her regular port Of des-
tination. No efforts have been made
Mr.. Franklin said, to send wireless in
structions to the vessels Of the line
now at sea.
The ship of the American line whose
safe arrival Is awaited with the great
est anxiety is the Philadelphia, from
New York to Liverpool. This morn
ing the Philadelphia was believed to
be about 1900 miles from Liverpool.
Her port engine is out of commission,
due to the breaking of a crank shaft
last Saturday. and it is believed that
she cannot make port until late Mon
day The Philadelphia carries 14s pas
sengers. of whom thirty-five are
Americans. Among those on board
are Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. Misses Helen
and Ethel Crocker of San Francisco,
Lieut.. John Eager, U. S. A, and Capt.
Roald Amundsen. arctic explorer.
The Finland of the same line. also
from New York. is due to arrive at
Liverpool Sunday. Forty-six of her
The Kroonland of this line left Liver
pool for New York Wednesday, with
191 passengers. 1t is believed that half
of these are Americans.
Other Ships Carrying Americans.
The French liner Chicago, which car
ries a number of American passengers,
is thought to be due at Bordeaux today.
Another vessel on which Americans
sailed is the Baltic of the White Star
line. which steamed from this port
Monday for Liverpool She is due to
arrive Wednesday. The ST. Paul of the
American line, which left Liverpool last
Saturday and is due here Sunday, is be-
1ieyed to be outside the danger zone by
this time.
No passenger steamers have left New
York for Europe since the declaration
of the German blockade, but several
freight ships sailed yesterday and last
night The shipping embargo on this
port which at first was intended to con-
tinue every night until the situation
cleared, was modified last night and
several vessels were allowed to pass
out. First, however. they were sub
iected to careful examination by the
United States destroyers stationed at
the Narrows to guard the neutrality of
A number of American citizens are
here today anxious to sail for Europe
despite the dangers of submarine war
fare. Most of them are buyers anxious
to get to Europe to prepare for the
