in collaboration with the local authori

Arrangements are being made with
the Bank of France to discount com

Berlin Bridges Guarded
by Old Men and Boys
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 20, 6.40 A. M The
Times correspondent at Rotterdam
telegraphs a statement which he says
was made to him by a party of Chin
ese medical men who have arrived in
Rotterdam from Berlin.
"When we left Berlin Saturday
night," says the statement, "the city
■was in the hands of old men and boys.
No able bodied man was to be seen.
All of the bridges were guarded by
boys about 14 years of age, who stood
with fixed bayonets. A fortnight ago
the Friedrichstrasse bridge was badly
damaged by a Russian bomb. We our

"A corps of Amaions Is being
raised in Berlin, leaflets having been

"A week ago an attempt was made
to blow up the bridge of Zoologlsche

German soldiers look very tit and
splendidly equipped.
The correspondent says that Anth

New Grill at Rose's
to Open This Evening
This evening will mark the formal
opening the Fraternity Grill, a new
addition to the store of John A. Rose,
Second and Walnut streets. For weeks
contractors have been busy working
a transformation in the store, and
now everything is in complete readi
| ness for the opening,
i The new grill is connected with the
first floor grill by a wide open stair
way, which is beautifully carpeted
! with heavy brussels carpet, as is also
the new grillroom. Decorations are
carried out to harmonize with the
first floor grill, and hangings of uni
versity shields, and large steins, are
employed in carrying out the scheme
implied by the name. Tables and
chairs installed in the new addition
were imported from Holl-nd, and are
most attractive in design and appear
ance.
Potted plants will be employed for
decorative purposes at the opening
this evening, and during the opening
hours, from 8 to 11 o'clock, music will
be furnished by Loesers Orchestra,
"God Is Always With the
Strongest," Says Huerta
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 20, 11.10 a. m.—Vlc
toriana Huerta, erstwhile dictator of
Mexico, was asked to-day what he
thought of the European war. He
.called for and paper and wrote:
"On the present war in Europe I
should not speak. All that can be
said is what I have already said in a
book of a lady, which is as follows:
" 'God is always with the strongest
—that is to say, the strongest is al
ways in the grace of God. It is for
this that one is the strongest.' "
When asked to speak regarding
the Mexican situation. General Huerta
closed his lips tightly and made the
sign of the cross as if putting the
seal on. He said in English "Excuse
me, nothing."
few people at the respectable but
unostentatious hotel frequented by
middle-class provincial merchants,
where Huerta is staying, suspect that
the little dark man with the Spanish
looking family was a few weeks ago
dictator of Mexico.
The general seems a trifle dazed
and bewildered by the vastnfess and
the noise of London. Soon after
bfeakfast he, with his wife, son and
three daughters of General Blanffuet,
filled two taxicabs in which they
started on a shopping expedition.
General Huerta has not visited the
Mexican legation and he has bad few
callers. If he has wealth neither the
dress nor the scale of living of his
parttf indicates it.
Health Conditions in
Paris Are Excellent
By Associated Press
Paris, Aug. 20, 1.45 a. m. The
health of Paris Is excellent. Accord
ing to reports of the sanitary author
ities the population of both the city
and its suburbs co-operates readily in
the measures taken by the health of
ficials, so that there is no danger of
epidemics. Advice as to re-vaccina
tion is very generally followed.
The police now consider Paris the
safest city in the world. Bronzed,
wiry bluejackets have been brought
from the naval ports to supplement
the police. The patrols find little to
do. Before mobilization the average
daily arrests in the city was 700. This
has now decreased to 1.50.
Blind Bishop Alleged
to Have Been Executed
By Associated Press
Paris, Aug. 20.—"La Croix," the
Catholic newspaper, declared that the
blind bishop. Mgr. Kannengiesser, al
leged to have been shot by the Ger
mans at Isteln, In Baden, was an Al
satian and anti-German.
He was accused by the Germans of
having in his possession plans of the
fortress of Isteln-Glotz, where a large
German force is awaiting the advance
of the French army now marching
through Upper Alsace.
Isteln-Goltz is regarded as almost
Impregnable and is the center of the

on Their Way to Antwerp
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 20, 2.30 A. M.—A dis
i patch to the Daily Express from the
I Hague says:
[ "A bulletin posted here states that
I the Germans and Belgians are fight
ling bitterly at Dlest and Aerschot on
'their way to Antwerp. This news Is
ji'auslnß the greatest uneasiness here.
I Kor the first time in the present crisis
| the dutch realize the terrible peril
| which the Germans h&ve brought to
1 their very doors, for Germany's ad
vance on Brussels can have no other
object than at attack on Antwerp.
"Competent military circles rere be
lieve that the march on Brussels was
resorted to only as a sequel to the
complete failure of the German plan
of sudden attack on France. Had
Liege not resisted as it is now doing
or were the prospects of i> Namur's re
sistance not as brilliant "as they are,
Germany mtght have remained faith
ful to her original plan.
"But Liege held up the whole Ger
many army for ten days during which
the Belgian government poured am
munition and men into Namur, thus
preparing for a much longer defense
than was the case for Liege. Should
the German armies be held up at Na
mur and there Is little doubt but they
kill, the keenest, disappointment will
be felt In Germany. A Belgian diplo
mat told me to-day: 'They will never
get Namur. Liege was child's play.'
"The Dutch are anxious about the
attack on Antwerp because It would
threaten the Scheldt river which Is
partly a Dutch waterway.
"Queen Wilhelmina had interviews
with her ministers to-day and ispect
ed the Hague barracks. Her consort.
Prince Henry, who before their mar
riage held a high position in the Ger
man army, has no active command in
the Dutch army and is holding alto
gether aloof from the military pre
parations. -The Dutch people are
grateful for this discretion."

Germans Gain Ground
on Both Sides of Meuse
By Associated Press
Paris, Aug. 20, 11:40 a. m.—An of
ficial communication received here
from Brussels says:
"The Germans have gained ground
on both banks of the river Meuse and
are in contact with the armies of the
allies.
"The enemy, finding the routes to
the southward Krongly held by French
and Belgians, discovered an opening
