HOME, Feb. K.
A national strike Is threatened In Italy.
Owing to tho cconomlo crisis brought
fibout by tho war and tho higher coat of
bread a general strike was declared at
Naples on Wednesday. Tbo socialists and
tho leaders of tho trades unions aro co
operating in tho movement. About SO0O
men were Idle In Naples this morning.
Tho strike threatens to extend to tho
railway lines. Already somo of the roads
have been crippled by tho -walkout In tho
Industrial plants.
Troops are patrolling tho streets In
Naples for fear of an outbreak.
A sudden change of feeling has been
noticeable In diplomatic quarters In Ber
lin, dispatches from that city say, dur
ing ths last few days regarding Italy's
Attitude, which seems to have becomo a
matter of much greater concern than
hitherto.
Tho reasons for this chango aro not
clear at this time.
Close observers of tho political situa
tion noto that since Italy's readiness to
go to war 'nos becomo apparent, Ger
many's Insistence that she continue nou
tral has grown stronger.
Prince von Buelow, tho Gorman Am
bassador, has summarized tho Italian
situation to his Government, It la asserted
In a trustworthy quarter, substantially
as follows:
Italy has spent nearly two billion lire
J4OO,O0O,Q0O) In war preparations since hos
tilities began; consequently action on her
part Is dally becoming more Imperative.
GERMANY FINANCIAL
WRECK, SAYS VIVIAN!
Continued from Pago One
In Prance's situation I The first three
months of the war of 1870 saw our armies
at Sedan and Metz prisoners, another
army at Paris Invested In oil over 400,000
men.
"Tho -world believed Frnnco crushed.
But 10 years after the war, at tho Uni
versal Exposition, sho showed the world
tho spectacle of a reborn country France
faced her problems squarely, resolved to
salve her most arduous Interior political
questions. She retained her Ideals of fra
ternity and liberty. She applied them to
her eoclal laws. She guaranteed her In
dependence both by obligatory military
service and by International alliances and
ententes, which German diplomatic du
plicity often tried without success to
undo.
"Then came this war which Germany
craftily prepared, then unchained. If
Germany really loved peace sho might
hive had It simply by accepting pour
parlers at London. July 25. or two days
later by accepting the Czar'a call to Tho
Hague Tribunal, or, on July 31, Great
Britain's call to suspend military prep
arations In view of negotiations at Lon
don. France and Russia adhered to all
these pacific nttempts, but Germany de
clared war. She had been mobilizing for
10 days.
GERMANY EXPECTED DISCORD.
"Germany has sadly miscalculated.
She realizes It now. Without speaking of
countries other than my own, Germany
expected discords and dissensions. What
she ran against was an immovable block
without factions, without divergences.
Every son of France took up arms rich,
poor. Socialists, conservatives, free think
ers and Catholics alike.
"Today France'fl policy continues to be
what. In the name of tho Government, It
was stated to be on December 2:
" 'War without mercy.' We aro unani
mous on this point. We are unanimous
In declaring that we will not accept any
but a victorious peace for all the Allies.
Tho united pact of September 4 has our
denature, and for us a treaty is not a
scrap a paper. Our armies arc intact.
They have checked the German torrent.
"What was Germany's flrBt objective
point? Paris. She failed to win It. Then
she tried Dunkirk and then Calais. She
left 200,000 cadavers on the Yser, but
she did not pass. The same thing hap
pened at Nancy and at Verdun. Ger
many was thrown aside. Her military
power Is hard hit. Economically she is
ruined. An Implacable blockade Is draw
ing tighter and tighter about her. De
spite all precautions she has taken to
conceal the truth, I can assure you that
her financial and economic rout Is com
plete. If her cities which tourists visit
retain the appearances of prosperity, It
Is to the detriment to the country dis
tricts, which aro being famished In order
to put up appearances before the outside
world.
"France's economic and financial sit
uation la normal despite the enormous
expense Imposed by the war. We lack
nothing. The Allies will fight It out
to the bitter end. Let there be no doubt
about that. For our children we wish
to end once for all the peril of war en
gendered by military caste, which In Ger
many has carried all classes before It.
FOR BELGIAN INDEPENDENCE.
"We will destroy this breeding place of
perpetual discord between peoples. We
are battling for the right. We da not
lsh to make slaves of any one. We will
restore Belgian independence.
"We will reunite the French family
separated by the mailed fist 4 years ago.
"We wish to bo free. We will be."
Premier Vivian! Is one 'of the strongest

finite tact he has maintained tempera

an extent that the people marvel. He

FRANCE TO PROTECT
MOTHERS AND BABES
Cabinet Devises Plans and
Laws Made Necessary by
German Invasion.
By HENRY WOOD
UNITED PnDSS BTAFP COimnSPONDENT.
PARIS, Feb. 2fi. France has Just taken
Up tho most delicate task that has yet
boon Imposed on It In tho present war.
This Is tho determination not only to
savo tho lives of tho babies who aro to
bo borno by Frerreh women ns a result
of tho Germnn Invasion, but to offer
oxer possible help and protection to tho
mothers themselves. The Government la
especially anxious to prevent Infanticide.
So Important Is tho subject considered
that recently several meetings of the
Cabinet haxo been devoted to it exclu
sively. Complete plans have now been
porfected not only for cnrlng for both the
babies nnd tho mothers, but for seeing
to It that tho latter aro advised amply
In advance of what Is to bo done for
them, so that they may at least bo re
lieved of a certain portion of tho mental
anxiety nnd distress that otherwise would
attend tho birth of the Infants.
Since 1S93, when Frnnco first realized
that her actual existence was being
threatened by tho decrease In her birth
rate, a large number of laws have been
passed for tho protection of women In un
fortunate circumstances.
All of tho benefits of these laws havo
now Just been made applicable to all of
the women whose condition Is now giving
cause for concern In nddltlon, a num
ber of measures have Just been perfected
especially for these cases In view.
In tho first place, tho prospective moth
ers nro to havo all of the medical help
necessary at the expense of the State
They are to bo relieved of complying with
all the existing regulations which govern
the birth of a child In France, nnd the
State Is to undertake tho duty not only
of relieving the mother at once of the
cans of the child, but of concealing In
ovoiy posslblo way every possible trace
of tho origin of the child.
While tho mother Is thus relloved of all
duty and obligation as to tho child's
future, the State nlso will pledge Itself,
in addition to caring for tho child, to
maintain records of Identity that will
enable tho mother at any time in tho
future, should she ever care to do so, to
reclaim her baby.
In tho few months that will yet elapse,
before It will bo necessary to havo re
course to these measures, tho State will
make every effort posslblo to get In touch
with tho women to whom they will be
applicable and secure their promises to
accept this solution of the misfortune
which the war has brought upon them.
SLAV OFFENSIVE RENEWED
IN EAST CARPATHIANS
Austrian Drive to Retake Lemberg
Met by Invaders.
PETROGRAD, Feb. 25.
Tho first great battle since tho Austrlans
began their northward drlvo to recapture
Lemberg Is being waged cast and south
of Stanislau along the eastern Car
pathians, according to advices received
here today.
Only meager dispatches havo arrived
hero from the new Galician battleground.
These indicato that for the present the
conflict around Stanislau overshadows tho
developments In Poland.
Franz Joseph has massed a great army
within the angle formed by two railroads
southeast of Stanislau This Austrian
force Is attempting to press north to the
Dnelster and force a crossing nt Hallcz,
less than 70 miles from Lemberg Itself.
Over a five-mile battlo front extending
from Stanislau cast to Tysmlenlca, sev
eral Russian regiments are stubbornly
resisting the advance of the Austrlans.
Dispatches to the War Oillce today In
dicated that the Russians are slowly le
tlrlng before superior forces, retreating
for strategic reasons upon tho city of
Hallcz Itself on the south bank of tho
Dniester. Because of the swollen condi
tion of the river, a crossing nt any point
but Hallcz Is out of the question, and tho
Russian General Staff Is confident that
the Austrlans will bo halted at this point
If not south of the river.

RECALL OF GERMAN
ATTACHE INVOLVED IN
FRAUD MAY BE ASKED
Federal Court to Take Up
Case of Captain Boy-Ed
Through State Depart
ment Letters Connect
Him With Probe.
Third Arrest in Plan to Send
Reservists Homo by Means
of Fraudulent Passport
Made in Hoboken Today Ob
tained False Certificate.
NEW YORK, Feb. 25,
Federal Court olTlclals today Dimmed to
risk tho State Department at Washington
to Investigate tho connection of Captain
Boy-Ed, German naval attache at Wash
ington, with tho second caso of fraudulent
obtaining of passports within two months.
Unable to probe tho attache's caso
locally, tho otnclnls hero believed that tho
Secretary of Htate should obIc his recall.
A third arrest In the caso was made to
day. Itlchard Madden, cmploje of a Ho
boken danco hall, who Is said to havo
secured tho birth certificate, under Mad
den's name, for Itlchard Stengler, was
arrested by special agents of the Depart
ment of Justice at Hnbokon.
Madden was arraigned this afternoon
before Federal Commissioner Houghton
nnd hold for tho Federal Grand Jury In
tho sum of J15.000 ball. Ho was committed
to Jail In default of bond.
After his arraignment Madden declared
that ho had never meant to conspire
against tho Government. Ho declared
that somo men In Hoboken hod told him
that ho could get a good Job If ho secured
his birth certificate, and with It pro
cured an American passport for use In
foreign countries. He got tho passport,
ho said, but never received anything for
his effort.
This second conspiracy was disclosed
last night by tho nrrest of Itlohard rotor
Stegler, a member of tho German naval
rosorve, who lives at 23 St. Nicholas
avenue, and Gustav Cook, a waiter.
Letters that passed between Stegler
and tho naval attache, It Is said, show
that tho latter defrayed, or was willing
to defray, the expanses Incidental to tho
Issuance of the passports.
ThN charge was omphatlcally denied by
Captain Boy-Ed. "It is true that I know
sllghtl this man, Stegler," Captain Hoy
Ed said, "but that is the extent of my
knowledgo of this matter. I know noth
ing of what you say about passport fraud,
or of anv attempt to Bond Gorman reserv
ists back to the Fatherland Impropeilv."
That tho now attempt to violate tho
passport laws progressed no further thiui
the Issuance of one passport Is due, tho
Federal authorities say, to tho fact that
Stcglcr's young bride, formerly Miss
Annotto Pope, of Atlanta, Ga., Induced
him to confess.
