Declare War
On Germany?
Fact That Emperor Wilhelm Sus
tains Course Adopted by
Luxberg Brings Crisis
FORMAL DECLARATION 4
EXPECTED DURING DAY

Buenos Aires, September 90

tions with Germany as the result OF
new developments Friday, the Associ
ated Press learns from high official
source.
News that Emperor William had ex.
pressed approval of the loyalty dis
played by Count Won LMxburg, the
dismissed German minister, was re.
ceived here just before the opening OF
debate in the chamber Of deputies to.
day on the resolution declaring for a
rupture of relations between Argen-
tina and Germany. This was looked
on in some quarters as likely to has.
ten materially the decision in favor
of a break.
The senate has already passed the
resolution and President IrigOyen has
announced that he is willing to follow
the dictates of the people.
The chamber of deputies late Friday
postponed discussion until today OF
the crisis with Germany caused by the
unfriendly action of Count Won Lux
burg, the dismissed German minister
This postponement was taken after
receipt Of statement from Foreign
Minister Pueyrred0n that the govern
ment has received new information
which he will present to congress to-
day.
After meeting of the ministry this
afternoon it was announced that the
government was prepared to take
grave and rapid measures in view of
certain new developments.
A high government official declared
that these measures probably would
include an immediate declaration Of
war against Germany, to be followed
by the dispatch of troops to Europe.

Stockholm, Sept 22.-Considerable

leave the country within three months
The American legation has received
many telephone inquiries from agi

A pro-German newspaper this after
noon printed strong protest against

at least 100000 Swedes of military age

a small proportion of them could re

Petrcgrad, Sept. 22.-Revelations
made today regarding the Korniloff

General Korniloff was a tool in the
hands of his chief of staff, General
Lokomsky, and they also show the
extreme carefulness with which the

The official army organ of the Rou.

army commissary and officers at the
front whose devotion to the provis
ional government had been shown.
General Korniloff appeared before

views of the vatican regarding q SO

>of the Holy See. 1t is eviden. from
the article that the vatican lspires

The Italia declares that the Ho'y

Gated, be a practical means with
which to obtain and maintain .l!sarm'
ament leaving the nations t. decide

however, the Holy See is convinced
that among all the plans suggested
so far, the only practical ami possible
one Is the following:
TO Suppress Service. .....
"By an accord among the civilized
nations, including neutrals, to sup

Institute an arbitration tribunal, and

which refuse to submit international

ut was made evident in the article
that the vatican did not hope for a
period when there would be no moro
wars, out believed that it would be
possible to limit them.
The Present War.
Regarding the present war, the
newspaper maintains that the con-
tending parties would be obliged to
come to some terms other than those
directed by the force of arms for
otherwise the course of the next few
years, the manhood and wealth of
the world would be swallowed up.

GENERAL BLISS BECOMES
CHIEF AMERICAN FORCES

Washington, Sept 22.-Major Gen
eral Tasker H. Bliss today was
named chief of staff of the army to
succeed Major General Hugh L. Scott
who retires from office tomorrow.
General Scott, who is 6i years old
has reached the age of retirement, but
he Immediately will be recalled to act
i've service. Secretary Eaker said that
fer the present the general would be
assigned to duty in connection with
the training Of troops in the United
States, but would not specify the
command.
General Bliss has been acting chief
of staff since General Scott left for
Russia several months ago as men,
ber of the American mission. He also
will reach the age of retirement Dec.
81, next. but before his appointment
today there were intimations that he
would remain as chief of staff for at
least those three months. When the
American forces begin to, reach
France in large numbers, however, the
strain on the chief of staff will be-
come so great that younger officer
may be called upon to bear the bur-
ders of the Office.
Scott May Go to Front.
General ScOtt's assignment to duty
in connection with the training Of
troops, it is believed, will be follow
ed later by his appointment to field
command, possibly division, at the
front He has eagerly sought such a
command. Possibly his services may
be found valuable as connecting
link between the training camps in
France and In. the United States,
there having been some discussion at
the war department of the advisable
ity of providing for closer co-ordina-
tion OF the training courses so that no

Washington, D. G., Sept. 22.-Chair
man Flood of the house foreign affairs
committee, declared today after con
ferring with Secretary Lansing, that
he thought there probably would be a
house investigation of Count Won Bern
storff's plans to influence congress by
spending $4,000, as mentioned in his
dispatches to Berlin.
Secretary Lansing sees little that a
congressional inquiry could develop
but charges made on the floor yester:
day by Representative Heflin that Ger
tain members had "acted suspiciOusly'
and veiled accusations made by other
representatives in interviews probably
will force an investigation, Mr.. Flood
said.

in Field of HostilitieS.

In the field of hostilities, the Brit
ish campaign in Flanders alone COM
mands widespread interest at the mo-
ment
Today's reports show General Haig
to be holding fast to all the valuaoio
ground he gained Thursday, in the
face of the most persistent German
counter attacks. The Germans
heavily increased their losses in
these efforts, the British official state
ment notes, but failed to achieve any
cOmpensating gains.
The only point at which the leu
tonic thrusts were even temporarily
successful was east of St. Julien, and
here the Germans were Immediately
driven out Of the small section OF
ground they had penetrated.
Germans Exhausted.
Three counter attacks in all were
delivered last evening by the Ger
mans. Apparently they had become
exhausted by the failure of the first
two efforts, for the third attack made
east of Langemarck did not have to
be faced by the British infantry; the
artillery alone being able to cope
with it.
Heavy fighting was reported this
morning near Tower Hamlets, where
the German resistance from the first
has been most desperate. The Brit
ish left held fast under this attack,
but there was uncertainty in the ear
" advices as to the situation on the
right of this sector.
Naval Works Bombed.
Another phase of the entente cam
paign in German-held Belgian terri
tory had a development today in a
british naval attack on Ostend. Ma
val works there were bombed this
morning with results that are pro
nounced satisfactory by the British
admiralty. Three German seaplanes
were shot down.

No Basis for Discussion.
The first examination of the reply,
officials thought, failed to disclose
anything In the nature OF terms
which would afford q basis for dis

Secretary Lansing authorized no
quotation of any opinion for the gov
ernment, but it was clearly Indicated
at the state department that such
consideration as has been given to
the reply has failed to develop any
reason for any alienation OF the aims
or intentions of this government eth

He was also part ly responsible for the flag which was given each young man who registered. Mir.

 Young Mexican men of this city in large numbers register ed. It was surprising the way these young men answered the call of the United States. In fact many of them expressed their intentions of joining the army if they were not called in the first draft.
 The Chamber Of Commerce comes in for it's share of the praise while it is being handed out. The members appointed on the special committee have worked unfalteringly and the fruits of their labor are being enjoyed, not only by the young men who registered, but by the entire city. Many meetings have been held, all of which were we'll attended.
