HOLLAND A VAST ICE RINK

Holland is at the moment one big
skating rink. From sovereign to
humblest peasant, from aged grand.

renely, merrily along on skates.
In striking contrast with the last
three mild winters, most interse
and continuous cold spell has set in.
and despite brilliant sunshine every
lake and canal is frozen as hard as
the cobbled streets.
One can go from The Hague to
Amsterdam, to Rotterdam, to virtu-
ally any part of the country on
skates.
The lakes outside the royal house
in the wood at the Hague resemble
nothing so much as fair. On the

AMERICANS TO GIVE
S5,0OO,0OO TO RESTORE
LOUVAIN UNIVERSITY

The University of Louvain, Bel.
GUM, damaged by fire and lombard
ment when the city was taken by the
Germans in the early days of the war,
is to be restored through the efforts
of American educational institutions.
This was learned in New York upon
the arrival from France and England
on the steamship Adriatic of Clifford
N. Carver, former secretary to Am
bassador Page at London, and later
secretary to Col. E. M. House, on his
last trip to Europe.
Mr.. Carver said that plans for this
work, which will entail the expendi-
ture of approximately $5,000.000, have
been under preparation for some
time. 1t was to consult with Belgian
officials and to obtain from them de-
tailed plans and drawings of the
buildings, together with a report of
the actual damage, that he went to
Europe two months ago.
The committee to have the work in
charge will be composed, he asserted,
of heads of some of the leading uni
versities and colleges of the United
States and several prominent Ameri-
can financiers. Part of the plan will
be to replace, so far as possible, the
library that was burned when the
city was bombarded.
Mr.. Carver said present plans are
for restoration to be begun as soon as
peace is declared. The restored uni
versity will be the gift to Belgium
from Americas educational institu-
tons.
The University of Louvain was
founded in 1926 by Pope Martin v and
Duke John of Burgundy. Prior to the
war it had five faculties and was at
tended by about 1000 students. At
ter the occupation of Belgium by the
Germans many of the professors
came to the United States and now
are attached to universities here.

EXTRA SESSION OF
CONGRESS CALLED
The President Has Also Ordered That
Policy of Armed Neutrality
Be Put Into Effect

to make sacrifice for their country in
time of emergency The press can
render the highest patriotic service
| by refraining from printing at this
time what ordinarily we would freely
print.
"Inasmuch as it will be impossible
to reach every paper and news agen-
cy directly, / will ask all papers to car
ry this request, which is made as an
appeal to patriotism to all journal
lists and disseminators of news. The
best news the readers can have is that
the Government will protect the rights
of America to the freedom of the
seas. The publication of details can
serve no good purpose and might je-
opardize human life. All readers will
surely applaud the papers in respond
ing to this appeal"
Plans for Aiming Ships.
With the departure of the first
armed American ship it will be neces-
sary for the Navy Department to is
sue instructions to gun crews as to
the manner in which the weapons are
to be employed. In that will be in
volved a declaration of policy as to
whether the appearance of a subma-
rine in the neighborhood of the ship
is sufficient to warrant opening fire.
Officials would not discuss this as
pect of the situation.
When the application of a ship own
er for arms has been approved by the
Navy department, the commandment
of the nearest navy yard will be in
structed to place the guns aboard.
Most Of the work probably will be
done at the navy yards, where facili-
ties are available for handling heavy
weights quickly. In some cases struc-
tural changes in ships decks may be
necessary to carry the gun weight.
In any event, however, it will take no
more than a few days to outfit a ship.
Contracts for additional guns of
suitable size are being speeded up. It
is expected they can be completed so
that weapons will be quickly available
for converting merchant craft into ma
val auXiliaries if war comes.
Under bill passed near the end of
the last session the amount of money
at the disposal of the Government
War Risk Bureau for insuring Amer
lean ships was increased to $4,000
OOO Under the present rule of the
bureau the Government does not in
sure ships carrying arms or munitions.

CARRANZA NOW MEXICO'S
CONSTITUTIONAL PRESIDENT

At the Mexico election for President
and Congressional Representatives,
last Sunday, March IL, de facto Pres
ldent Carranza was elected Constitu-
tional President, according to reports,
by what is believed to have been the
largest vote ever cast in the Republic.
Although the voters had the privi-
lege of writing in or declaring any
name they desired, General Carranza
received all but few scattering bal
lots. The estimated vote is from sew
eral hundred thousand to a million.
! The presidential election was pro-
vided for in articles adopted by the
Constitutional Assembly which met
at Queretaro. Many of the old res
idents declare that this was the first
real election ever held in the country.
Reports indicate that there was no
disturbance or intimidation.
Although there was no opposition
for the presidency, the congressional
contests were bitterly fought.
Conditions at the polls throughout
the district were orderly and there was
a steady stream of voters during the
day.
Troops were not in evidence, the
soldiers casting their votes in their
barracks.
Mexico will now have Constitu-
tional President for the first time since
1911. Gen Victoriano Huerta called
an election in 1914 and declared him !
self elected, but later nullifod the cleo
ton on the grounds that an INSULT |
,ient number Of votes had been cast.

Russia Striving to Send Out Un-

Hailar, Manchuria, Aug. 16-Cor- Officials of the Russian government are endeavoring to induce the Mongo liam outlaws who have seized this city to abandon their depreciation and return to Mongolia.
 For more than two months the Mongolians have been in virtual pos session of this large municipality. They have not interferred with the Trans-Slberian Railway and proper ty in the railway zone, but their oc- cupation has stopped all business within, and the town has interfered seriously with the delivery of hides, wool and other products which nor mally are shipped in large quantities from Hailar.
 M. Grave. the counselor of the Russian legation at Pekin, is here negotiating with the outlaws, and hopes to induce them to return to Mongolia. Foreigners have not been
 interferred with to any extent by the Mongolians, but Chinese and Chinese property are absolutely under their sway.

 Chinese boy emperor was put back | upon the throne in China. the out ] laws announced they were Chinese

BelgianS Flee Into Holland.

Paris, Aug. 30.-According to telegram from Havre, where the Bel gian government is temporarily To- cated, about 150 Belgians have suc-
 ceeded in crossing the frontier into Holland and freedom in curious
 manner
 The German military authorities had decided to have certain trees cut
 down because they interferred with the view of the sentries placed along
 the barbed wire fencing and the cable which, charged with a strong electric current, prevent persons from
 escaping from Belgian territory. One
 hundred and fifty inhabitants of Sel- zaete were requisitioned and ordered to work at cutting down the trees.
 The improvised three-cutters sue -ceeded in doing their work in such a way that several trees fell across the barbed wire and the electrified cable and made a wide, safe open ing. Then they proceeded to trans fer themselves to Dutch territory, ac companied by their five German guardians, who had long grown tired of their duty and were only too pleased to desert, bag and baggage.
