ITALY HOLDS FIRM
IN NEUTRAL POLICY;
WAITS ON TURKEY
Overt Acts by Porte Will
Mean Rupture of Triple
Alliance as Mobilized

GENEVA. Sept Hi.
Thn possibility that Holy wilt broak Its
neutrality policy nnd enter the war on
the side of the Allies has been decreased
toy tho apparent effect of the Qreek-Itumnnlan-ttulgArlan
alliance on Turkey's
belligerent Intentions, say dispatches from
Home.
Dispatches from Vienna and Trieste tell
of preparations by Austria to resist an
fj(t been sent Into Trentlno to replace the
regiments tent to Pctvla at tne Beginning
of tho war.
Despite tho firm determination of the
Kovcrnment to maintain strict neutrality
it has been currently believed that any
overt act by Turkey would mean a move
by Italy, which ha held both Its military
tind naval forces mobilized for six weeks.
Tho pressure of the antl-neutrallty fac
tion on the government has not decreased,
although public demonstrations have been
curbed bv the soldiers.
Despite the official denials by Austria
It IB positively known that tho Austr an
forces on the Italian frontier are b-lnu
strongly reinforced. All of the regiments
made up of troops of Italian birth or
from the frontier itself, where Italian
sympathy is strong, have been transferred
to Gallcia. ,
While there Is no change In the of
ficial Italian attitude, there Is little doubt
anvwhero that the date for Italy to en-
fMllU ter the war Is rapidly approaching, lius
iii is oeueveu iwi " . . ,

representatives ner m me i........ ....
Austrian Governments. They have used
Jl of their Influence to keep Italy neu
tral, but It is noticeable that they have
not been ecn about the Foreign Office
Tecently.
Reports oro circulated here that Russia
Is preparing an ultimatum to Turkey de
manding demobilization. It is stated that
the Czar's Government has now definitely
decided that. Its Austrian campaign be
ing successful. It is in position to with
draw largo numbers of men to hold Tur
key in check and that, as a result, the
Porte will be given the choice of demob
ilizing or fighting.
LETTER FROM GERMANY
TELLS OF SACRIFICES
"Woman. Whose Husband Fought In
. Two Wars Ready to Yield Tour Sons.
.An example of the sacrifices which tho
Germans are reported to be making In
order that their arms may be ultimately
victorious Is shown In a letter received
by Mrs. H. Hllbert, 3U9 North Front
street.
The writer of the letter. Mrs. Franz
Eherhart. of Relchenbach. Germany, is
the mother of the Philadelphia woman,
and her husband is a veteran of two
German wars. She says in the letter to
her daughter that her father, -who Is
79 years old, expects his four sons to
be called for service at any time and
has written to each of them, urging them
to go unfalteringly to the aid of the
Fatherland.
AVhen the letter arrived at the Hllbert
home It was opened and appeared as
though It had not been sealed. It Is
the belief of Mrs. Hllbert that her
mother did not seal the letter because
she realized that It would be opened
and Ita contents scrutinized by the mili
tary authorities.
Following Is the letter In part, which
was mailed on September !:
"There are no enemies on German soli,
and the entire German army Is In France
and on the border of Russia. Every day
we receive messages of the victories won
by the German troops: but we also hear
j when our men arc beaten.
"The pcopl stand at the railroad sta-
c Hon every day waiting for the trains
Jl.to bring in the prisoners and wounded.
This world war Is terrible. Many hus-
I bands and pons are separated from their
families perhaps forever. But there la
i no crying or sorrow, and the children
in the streets say that their fathers
will again return.
"I don't like to go Into the streets,
because you see young women who are
waiting the return of their husbands.
This recalls the days In my life when
In the Prussian War of 13 and In the
Franco-Prussian War I was like them
and waited for Franz to return. Your
brothers have not been called yet. but
they expect to be called almost any
day. Father has written to each of
them, telling them to help their country
if necessary. He says there is no rea
son to be afraid, since we whipped the
French in 1571 and will repeat in this
war. The French would rather be cap
tured than shot, and we do not ex
pect the war to last as long as the
Franco-Prussia war."

French soldiers are buried where they fall. A cross marks their graves. The crosses are made of the handles of mess
tins and the dead man's cap and scarf are placed on top of the mound.
W. Clark, 3d, drove a lone ball from the ISth

In the open hand of a. spectator, who as walk
ing past. The spectator was considerably
startled and not a little puziled to know what
to do with the ball, but after some hesitancy
he dropped it, and Clark played it from where
It lay. Had tho man carried it to tho (trocn
and dropped It into the cup, what world of !ls- i

Clark had made tho hole In ono.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.
For a week there lins been nothing

leges in the Ottoman Kmnlre It'-li-" t', I
lege, ths Aiimlcan CoIIcko for Girli ant
the Atneilciill College m uoliut, mm Mdi
ous nlarm Is felt by the trustees nnd
representatives In this country.
II. Waiter Roberts, treasurer of tho
Episcopal Board nt Boston, who has boon
acting for tho American missionary soci
eties slnco tho Turkish Government
announced Its withdrawn! nf the cnpltuta
lions, eatd that not only Is all commu
nication with the American hcIiooIs In
Turkey broken, but that It has been
Imposslblo to forward much needed funds
from this country during tho lost ten
days.
After the wnr began and tho various
missionary societies realized that they
could no longer send money to their
workers In Turkey by tho usual channels
tho Standard OH otterod Its services nnd
undertook to transfer considerable sums
for the relief of American educational
nnd religious Institutions In that country.
But on Saturday tho Standard Oil re
ported to Mr. Roberta thnt It had been
unable for the last week to communicate
with Its representative at Constantinople,
and that It was Imposslblo to give relief.
The uneasiness which this situation
aroused has been Intensified when It
was reported through Homo that tho
Ottoman Government, besides suppressing
tho capitulations, had determined to
abolish all foreign schools within tho
empire. Dispatches received through
diplomatic sources from Rome etnto that
tho conditions In Constantinople are most
serloua.
Absolutely nothing In known as to tba
welfare of foreign missionaries or col
leges In Turkey. It Is naturally sup
posed, however, that they arc beginning
to feel the pinch of unusual conditions
nnd possibly to be In serious need of
financial hcJp. Besides tho big Ameri
can colleges In Turkey there arc nearly
510 smaller schools that are conducted
by rellslous bodies
As an Indication of the fact that the
Armenians In this country nro fearful lest
trouble come to their relatives In Turkey
many of them have made application to
the American Board during the Inst week
to have money transferred to Turkey. In
each case, however, that money hns had
to bo refused with the explanation that
the board hns no means of sending It.
