BRAZIL LIKELY
TO BREAK TODAY
German Ships Will Probably B'
Seized Immediately Following.

Ria Janeiro, April 9.-An early
rupture of relations between Brazi
and Germany is expected-by TO-
morrow morning at the latest. The
break depends solely on the formal
ity of the reception of the official re-
port from Paris on the sinking Of
the Brazilian steamer Parana by 6
German submarine.
The break probably will be fol
lowed by the seizure of German
ships in Brazil!
DR.. Lauro Muller, foreign minis
ter, has refused to receive the Ger
man minister. DR.. Muller gave ur'
gent orders that steamer in Rle
Janeiro be made ready at once fo1
q mission abroad.
DIR. Muller conferred with the wa
minister and chief of staff. He alst
urgently requested a report from
the Brazilian legation in Paris.

MUNITIONS BOARD
TO MEET DEMANDS
Plan is to Have, Arms and Ammuni-
; ton Furnished With Least Pos. !.
sible Disturbance. -.

Washington, April 9.-Creation OF
a general munitions board was an
nounced today by the council OF ma
tional defense. It will be headed by
Frank A. Scott, a Cleveland manu-
facturer, and will be charged with
supplying the army and navy with
munitions and equipment. One OF its
chief functions will be to decide be-
tween the country's military and in
dustrial needs.
The boards establishment puts in
to the hands of group of army and
navy officers and industrial leaders
virtually the same task given the
British minister of munitions. 1t
creates machinery for a government
department of munitions with its
head a cabinet member if conduct
of the war brings the need. Active
military and naval participation
in the conflict, many believe, will
produce that necessity.

SEIZURE OF SHIPS
FIRST ACT OF WAR
BY UNiTED5TATES
American Armed Forces Seize All
German Ships in Every Port OF
Country Early on Friday.

Washington, April 6.-1n seizing
the ninety-one German ships in Am
erican ports, the United States ac-
iquired vessels purposely built for
conversion into auxiliary cruisers.
It was learned at the department
Of commerce today that most Of the
passenger ships are built as naval
auxiliaries with gun platforms, re-
inforced decks and other equipment
for offensive purposes.
Officials said seizure of these ships
has increased our transporting abil.
ity tremendously. Fourteen Of the
larger vessels seized will transport
at one time about 100000 troops. The
American merchant fleet available at
present can carry only about half OF
that number.

FOR COOPERATION
IN OCEAN SERVICE
Plans for Working With Entente
to Suppress: Submarine Activi.
r'-' ties Not Made Public.

Washington, April 9.-Naval CO.
operation with the entente allies was
the subject of a conference today
between President Wilson and Sec
retary Daniels. It became known
afterward that the government al
ready is taking steps to assure the
fullest measure of cooperation.
The part to be played by Ameri-
can .warships was nota revealed.
One element of the plans undoubt-
edly deals with the question Of sup
plies for the entente governments.
Officials of the Bethlehem Steel
corporation and other steel and ord
nance companies were in conference
with Secretary Daniels today in this
regard. An agreement for the ap-
portionment of the facilities of the
plants between American army and
navy orders and the furnishing OF
war supplies to the entente nations
was reached.
Mr.. Daniels also was able to out
line to the president the steps that
have been taken to establish a sub.
marine-tight coast patrol in the
shortest possible time. Some part OF
the coast patrol fleet already is in
operation and later when the new
coast patrol boats recently obtained
are delivered it will be possible to
extend the scope of the patrol, in.
suring merchant craft the most thor.
ough protection possible.
The navy department has been
showered with requests from coast
towns and cities for the stationine
of war craft in these localities
There is no intention of breaking up
the navy's strength in this way. The
patrol and scout system, however
soon will be sufficient to insure swift
mobilization Of fighting units at any
threatened points.
Numerous bills related to the navy
were introduced today in the house
and senate. One proposes to raise
the maximum age limit for officers II
the naval reserve from 35 to 81
years; another modifies restrictions
on nationals of nations at peace witt
the United States who wish to enrol
in the reserve. One by Chairman
Padgett of the house naval commit
tee would add another midshipmar
at the naval academy for each mem
her of congress.

NUMBER OF RECRUITS

Young men, calling them slack
ers." Orders were issued to exclude
from te corridors runners" for
county Justices of the peace, re-
ported to have been soliciting busl-
ness.
Most Of the prospective benedicts
denied that the call to arms was re-
sponsible for their rush to matri-
mony.

BREAK BY BERLIN'S
ALLY MEANS ANOTHER
ENEMY FOR AMERICA
Austria-Hungary A Sewers Diplomatic
Relations With United States-
Representatives Called.

Washington, April 9.-Austria-
Hungary, under the pressure of Ger
many, has severed diplomatic rela-
tions with the United States, and
war-bound Austrian ships in Ameri-
can ports have been seized.
Baron Erick Zwiedinek, charge
d'affaires of the Austro-Hungarian
embassy here, called at the state
department today and asked for pass
ports for himself and the embassy
staff.
Almost at the same time a dis
patch was received from American
Minister Stovall at Berne saying the
dual monarchy had broken off diplo-
matte relations with the United
States in Vienna yesterday. 1t is
presumed this was done by handing
passports to American Charge Grew.
American Ambassador Penfield, who
had left Vienna on Saturday, prob
ably did not know Of the govern
ment's action.
By pre-arrangement Spain will
take over the diplomatic and consul
liar interests of the United States in
Austria-Hungary. All Austrian con-
sular agents will depart from the
JJn;ted States with the diplomatic
mission, as was the case with Ger
many.
Up to the time Charge Zwiednek
asked for his passports no similar ac-
ton had been taken by Bulgaria and
Turkey-Germany's two other al
|lies-and their representatives here
disclaimed having any knowledge OF
the intention of their governments.
It is expected they will follow by
breaking diplomatic relations.

Influence Behind Conscription
System for Prosecuting War.

Washington, April 9.-President
Wilson threw the weight Of his per-
sonal influence into the scales today
in an effort to overcome opposition
in congress to the administration
army plans based on the draft sys-
tenn.
Summoning Chairman Dent of the
house military committee to the
White House, the president made it
clar that he believed the safety Of
the nation hangs on the action Of
congress in this regard. he will
make similar explanation Of the
military situation tomorrow to Rep
resentative Anthony Of Kansas, who
has led opposition to the draft plan

In his action todya the president
recognized the fact that there may
be a strong feeling in congress in
favor of adhering to the old volun-
teer system and sought to bring
home to Mr.. Dent, one Of these who
hold that view, the lesson to be
drawn from the great war into which
the United States now has been
plunged and which all point, military
advisers of the government declare,
to the absolute necessity Of facing
the issue squarely and summoning
men to the colors by draft.

TO THE MEN OF
ABBEVILLE COUNTY:

Since q estate Of War" has
been declared between the
United States and Germany,
and since a call for 100000
men, between the ages of 19
and rs, will soon be made, it
is evident Abbeville county
will be required to furnish
several hundred, and I have
been requested by a number
to call a meeting to be held
in the Court House on Friday
evening, April the 18th, for
the purpose Of organizing a
company of Abbeville men in
order that all may 60 to-
gether and be officered by
Abbeville men. Companies
are already being organized
in many towns of the State,
and it is the part Of wisdom
for US to organize and volun-
teer and not wait to be con-
scripted.
Married men and men with
dependents will be exempted
but all others are liable.
There are a number Of men
in Abbeville that had expert
ence as officers in the Span
ish-American war and it is
much better to 60 with your
own people rather than to be
forced to 60 with strangers.
The meeting will be held at
\ 8 o'clock.
