WILL NOT SEIZE INTERNED GER.
MAN SHIPS.

Washington.-Pers reports OF
impending seizure OF German freight
and passenger ships war-bound in
American ports led to an authorized
statement for the government that
such a step was not even under con-
sideration. 1t was pointed out that
while port authorities would take
necessary precautions to protect
property and safeguard navigation,
for the government to seize these
ships, in American harbors as visit
ors under their own flag, would be
an aggression which might be con-
strued as hostile to Germany.
Collectors Of customs have been in
structed by the Treasury department
TO be particularly careful in the pres
ent emergency and those at ports
where German ships are laid up have
provided special guards about the
vessels. To meet the problem result
ing from members OF the German
crews deserting and coming ashore.
the immigration bureau is cooper
ating with the customs officers. The
sailors will be held pending a de-
cision as to their disposition.

SAYS GERMANY REGRETS BREAK
WITH AMERICA.

Berlin, (by wireless TO Sayville) -
Press dispatches have reached Ber-
lin. according to which diplomatic re-
lations between Germany and the
United States have been broken off.
says the Overseas News Agency. No
official confirmation has been re.
cefved.
In case the news is correct" adds
the agency. "the general feeling in
Germany is regret that the Ameri-
can President gave TO the German
note an Interpretation which was not
intended by Germany. The German
measures are not intended to damage
neutrals, but were caused by the ne
cessity of defending Germany against
hostile measures which are contrary
TO international law. Germany's 8
enemies, therefore. being charged

COULD RAISE ARMY OF 1s,ooo, 900
MEN.

New York.-An army OF nearly 49,
100000 men could be called to the
colors OF the United States IL neces-
sary, according to a carefully pre-
pared estimate made public by the
executive committee Of Mayor
Mitchell's committee on national de-
fence. or this number 10,535,940 are
between the ages of IS and As years
and now are physically fit for SER
vice in the field. II was said.
In addition to this vast mobile force
the committee declared that II the
French standard OF 1910 should be
applied. 100000 of the 100000 men
who annually reach military age In
the United States would be fit for
service. BY the German standard as
applied in 1910, the United States
would have $4,000 physically fit
young rlen reaching military age an
nually.

CONGRESS READY TO ACT
QUICKLY IN EMERGENCY.

hington.-Congress aroused to
patriotic support OF the President,
calmly awaits developments in the
diplomatic breach with Germany.
Ready to act quickly and adequate
ly In any emergency, administration
leaders are in constant touch with
executive departments, with legisla-
tive machinery prepared for expedi
tious disposition OF extraordinary
revenue and defense measures.
While hopeful that the break with
the imperial German government will
not force the United States into war,
leaders already have cast partisan
ship aside, legislative squabbles over
minor matters have been tempered
and the legislative branch Is stand
ing by TO respond TO any demand for
protection OF the nation in the inter-
national crisis.
Important measures bearing on the
situation already are under consider
alton in both houses. among them the
annual naval appropriation bill. to
which emergency amendments have
been proposed since pe p-esiden'
addressed Congress.

Washington.-Hope for a peaceful
outcome of the difficulties with Ger
many pervaded official quarters when
Il became known that the American
steamer Housatonic had been given
full warning before it was sunk and
that every precaution had been taken
tor the safety Of It's crew.
In the hope that Germany will
guard carefully against sinking ships
In a way that might cost American
lives, the administration is awaiting
developments; but nevertheless.
preparations are being made for war
the worst should come.
Austria's position in regard to this
country Is still unchanged and
whether diplomatic relations will be
broken with the dual monarchy de-
pends wholly on Austria's next move.
If a disposition is shown to adopt the
course taken by Germany, break
will undoubtedly result
In setting aside the persistent re-
ports that the self-interned German
freight and passenger ships are to be
seized, the statement was authorized
that the government was not even
considering such step.
No lurther war clouds hung over
the horizon today, and with every
hour that passed the hope grew that
some means might be found whereby
Germany and America might remain
friends.
President Wilson, moreover, has
not abandoned his efforts for peace
and is endeavoring TO range the neu-
trail nations beside the United States
In attaining IL. He has suggested
that other nations break relations
with Germany as this country has
done, in the belief that such a step
might be an aid to peace.
The nations of Europe are hardly
likely to adopt his view, IL Is thought,
but those OF South America may do
30.
The Presidents invitation to neu-
trails to follow his action was contained
I'm instructions to American diplomats
TO announce the break with Germany
to the governments TO which they are
accredited. 1t was contained in the
following note: -
you will Immediately notify the
government to which you are ac-
credited that the United States. be-
cause OF the German governments
recent announcement OF its intention
TO renew unrestricted submarine war
fare. has no choice but TO follow the
course laid down in it's note OF April
IS, 1916. (the Sussex note).
''1t has, therefore. recalled the
American ambassador 10 Berlin and
has delivered passports to the Ger
man ambassador TO the United States
SAY, also. that the President Is
reluctant to believe Germany actually
will carry out her threat against neu'
tral commerce. but IL IL be done, the
President will ask Congress to au.
thorize use OF the national power &c
protect American citizens engaged IN
their peaceful and lawful errands or
the seas.

NAVAL MILITIA GUARD EAST
RIVER BRIDGES.

New York-Detachment OF the
New York naval militia equipped as
infantrymen patrol and guard the
five great East River bridges con-
Meeting Manhattan with Long Island.
Five naval militia tugs, one an
ocean-going vessel, steams up and
down the river in proximity to the
structures warning all river craft not
to approach within so feet of the
bridge piers.
Special vigilance was exercised at
the Manhattan. Brooklyn and Will
liamsburg bridges, between which the
New York navy yard lies. Destruc-
ton OF one OF these bridges, 1t was
pointed out, would interfere seriously
with the departure Of warships from
the navy yard.
To each bridge. details Of 100
militiamen were assigned, working in
three reliefs, with instructions to
search vehicles and pedestrians
crossing the bridges in the discre-
ton OF the sentries, and to permit no
person to halt on the structures. A
sharp watch was kept at the cable
anchorages and "other points where
the discharge of a small quantity OF
high explosives might lead to the de-
struction Of the bridge

PIE FUNDS.

Washington. Senator Simmons
chairman OF the Senate finance COM
mittee, was summoned TO the White
House and conferred with President
Wilson on means of raising sufficient
revenue in case OF hostilities with
Germany.
Senator Simmons assured the Pres
ident that Congress would move
promptly whenever money Is needed.
and that there would be no opposi-
ton TO reasonable requests from the
government. While no specific sum

Senator Simmons recalled that at the
outbreak OF the Spanish American
