nothing but paper money was told today
to a London Standard representative by
Doctor Heitllnger. Polish leader, who had
Just returned to England through Austria
and Italy.
While Mr. Vanderbilt was making a
tour ot Austria in his motor car the
declaration of hostilities found htm for
away from any large city, and when
the news finally reached him he did not
alter his previously arranged plan, but
went leisurely to Vienna and there found
n number of compatriots in difficulty
about money, owing- to the scarcity of
coin. Letters of credit were valueleis.
The banks would not cash them.
Mr. Vanderbilt motored to Genoa in
hopes of obtaining steamship accommo
dations to New York.
He could not get food or bed without
cash, tut managed to get a few francs
from an acquaintance to telegraph hU
bankets in Lnrdon to apprise them of
his plight, but it was not until two day
later that Instructions reached the local
bank to negotiate the draft, and Mr.
Vanderbilt was provided with cash. In
the meantime he made his bed in his
