to all these influences Bulgaria 1s angry at Russia (or the aid sbe gave Servla and Roumanla at the time of the second Balkan war. A Bulgarian envoy, who has been In Constantinople upon a diplomatic mission, has been recalled to Sofia, but there are no circumstances at tending the Incident to warrant the belief that the Bulgar-Turkish ne gotiations have been broken off. OUT AGAINST ARMS EMBARGO (Continued from first page) ganda has been looked on as very significant. In consequence, politicians see in the attitude of the president, as set forth in the Austrian note, not only a rejoinder for consumption by the Teutonic allies but also an effort to outline to the people ot the United States the exact attitude of the present administration toward the munition question. In framing the strongest part of the note refusing to accept the Austrian suggestion on the ground that the United States would be unable to cope with an aggressive foe In esse of war If forbidden to purchase munitions abroad, the president has raised an argument that is expected to prove very potont In the south.

Southern senators and representatives have been prominent in the suggestion that an embargo be declared In retaliation for England's interference with America's foreign commerce. All are Democrats and necessary to the president it his legislative program is not to be interfered with when congress convenes. The president, therefore, his advises say, made a ten strike when he invoked the aid ot patriotism in fighting the embargo plans. The Austrian note is expected to settle the question of munitions exportation for this war at least. The president completely rejects every suggestion made by Austria and defends the trade at length.

lie also calls the attention of the Austrian government to the fact that Austria and Germany always have sold munitions freely to belligerents when a state of war existed. FORTRESS HAS BEEN INVESTED (Continued from first page) resistance ot the Russians is lessen ing. In the sector formed by the curve of the Bug river northwest ot Brest Lltovsk, the Russians are retreating from their positions on the front extending southward past Mledzyrzec and Radcya and southeastward past Slavatycce- and Vlodava on the Bug (Mledzyrzec and Slavatycze are 30 miles from Brest Lltovsk.) North of Vllna the Russian line has been bent near Kublsko by the assaults of General Von Buelow'a cavalry forces. Geu. Von Buelow has apparently rallied from the temporary check which the strongly reinforced Russian forces were able to effect and is again driving forward In accordance with the plaus ot the general staff.

So many prisoners are being taken that the transportation ot these men into Germany is becoming a serious problem. Convention Often, Oakland, Aug. 10.

M. Zavitzanos, a political adherent of former Pre-" mler Venlzelos, was elected president of the Greek chamber of deputies to-day. The election of M. Zavltsanos threatens to cause the downfall of the cabinet as the ministry Is opposed to the principles or the Veniielo 4 party.

The meetings of the Servian and Greek parliaments Jn Nish and Athens today are ex-: pected to go far In solving the Balkan riddle and in determining whether the conflagration of war shall drag Roumanla, Bulgaria and Greece into Its vortex. In Bucharest a special meeting ot the Roumanian cabinet was held at the special command of King Ferd- lnand. uerman mnuence in nou- :) mania is strong and the cabinet is split into factions. By opening a terrific bombardment against Belgrade with the mightiest guns In the Teutonic armies, the Austro-German forces have called into prominence their recent threats to cut a path through Servla for the the double purpose of cowing the Balkan states now neutral and opening the way to send war supplies to the hard-pressed Turks at the Dar-i danelles. All along the Danube front there increasing activity.

The Germans Austrians are reported to have an army of nearly 60,000 men massed there. It is believed that a strong effort win be made to occupy Bel- X' grades The military value ot the Servian capital Is slight, but the I political effect of its capture by the Teutonic allies would be far reach ing. I Although high hopes are expressed that Bulgaria and Greece will be lined up with the powers of the triple entente there ia an under current of pessimism here and there is a fcel-lng in many quarters that German diplomacy has won at least a teni-' porary victory in the Balkan negotia tion. Bulgaria is standing firm upon ber demands to Greece and Servla that territory in Macedonia be ceded to her. Bulgaria has never acquisced completely In the retention ot Salonika by Greece and she feels that she was wrongly deprived of a considerable extent of territory by the treaty of 1913.

Bulgarian statesmen charge that they were tricked into ceding territory to Roumanla at the time of plained ot there was no violation ot any existing law.

27-Oct. forty thousand marchers will pass in line before the president of the Unite line before the president of the United States and bis cabinet. This was the announcement made today by Colonel George A. Bosley, ot Boston, the National chief ot staff who Is here making arrangements for the event. The Grand Review of the victor ious veterans ot the Civil war which occurred In Washington Immediately following of the great struggle was one ot the most spectacular military Incidents In the history of the world.

It was the most Impressive pageant which had ever occurred in warfare up to that time, and elaborate preparations have been made by the old soldiers to commemorate it at their coming encampment. The line ot march will be from the Capitol to the White House along historic Pennsylvania avenue which today presents a vastly different appearance from what it was a halt century ago when the returning warriors passed in grand review before President Johnson, his cabinet and the general staff of the army. It will rival any inaugural parade which the city has ever witnessed. The greater portion of the march-era will be veterans of the blue, most of whom participated in the march fifty years ago, but It will also include those who belong to the various army carps which did not take part In the concluding event of the Civil war. Augmenting the veterans will be the Sons of Veterans and kindred organizations as well as troops from the regular army.roembers of the marine corps, sailors from battleships, cadets and Independent military bodies as well as civilian escorts.

Washington citizens have perfected all arrangements for entertaining and housing the large number of veterans and their families as well as the great number of visitors who are coming here to participate In or witness the event HUNDREDS OF AMERICANS FACING STARVATION IN MEX ICO CITY DEMAND KELP (Continued from first page) of the claim that the Carranzlsta leaders will be guided by the first chief, a message sent by General Alfredo RIcaut, the commander at Nuevo Laredo, to Washington in reply to the note of the Pan-American conferees. In this message the agency said, RIcaut declared he would reject any measures that proposed dealing with the military leaders instead ot with Carranza direct. "Carranza was the first to arise in protest against the murder of Francisco I. Madero, the murdered president," said the RIcaut message, "the first man to dominate the usurper Huerta, and therefore negotiations must be conducted through Carr aula direct." That other Carranza generals will send similar replies is the assertion of the local Carranzistas. ON VERGE OF STARVATION.

Brass Bed Outfit Summer life-Savers Food that does not clog the liver or fog the brain GIT INTERFERE WITH THE PROPAGANDISTS No Law to Stop Publication of Matter Intended to Influence Opinion. Wellington, Aug.

16. The United States has no authority at present to Interfere with the spreading ot pro- German or pro-ally propaganda in this country. From time to time complaints have been heard that efforts were being made to involve this country on one side or the other but In every instance where Investigation was made it was found that the tacts had been oxag-gerated. This has been especially bo in connection with the allegation that the German embassy had foreknowledge that the Lusitanla was to be torpedoed. Secret service agents detailed to the state department and officials of the department ot Justice, were directed to investigate and their report indicated that there had been no violation of an existing law.

So far as the spreading by publica tion of material Intended to influence public sentiment in magalnes and the like is concerned, the United States government cannot interfere so long as the matter Is not seditious. Officials ot the department of Just-Ice say that both bldos to the conflict have taken advantage of this to the limit, but in no case has there been any cause for inteference by federal olilclals. The department ot Justice, It Is admitted now Is Investigating charges that certain officials connected with the German embassy have had knowledge ot alleged passport frauds and also has kept the German military authorities posted on movements ot troops from Canada. Most of the evidence on this line, it is stated, la ot an Intangible character and so far there has been no proof ot criminality. Unless congross enacts new legislation, officials any most of the offenses complained of can never be considered by courts or grand Juries.

MOSTLY OLD CIIARGES Which Have Already Been Disposed Of, Says Secretary Lansing. Washington, Aug. 16.

He denied most emphatically that bis department was in any way concerned with any investigation at thla time.

Most ot the charge now being renewed in newspaper articles, the secretary said already have been disposed of. Because of the critical aituatlon that resulted from the correspondence Initiated by the German submarine warfare and the sinking ot the Lusitanla the administration is not anxious to have Irrelevant matter Injected Into its relations with Germany at thla time. It la noted that In the majority ot the matters corn- "watch It closely." He would not say whether a formal Investigation had been ordered.
