German Forces Are Reported to Be 20 Miles From Paris French May Surrender Capital if Invaders Pass the Outer Lines of Defense in Effort to Save City From Destruc tion by Artillery Fire; 80,000 Russians Land on French Soil; British Torpedo Boat Believed to Have Been Destroyed; Little News Received Concerning Operations in East New York, Sept. 4.—Dow Jones and Company to day published these items on their news tickers: "Rome—Premier Salandra gave out the following official statement: " 'The Italian government is firmly determined to mantain strictest neutrality.' This corresponding with the feeling of the people although deep rooted sym pathies are felt for England." "London—lt is reported at Lloyds that Germany has sent an ultimatum to Holland. There is no con firmation." London, Sept. 4, 3.15 A. M.—ln a dispatch from Rouen, France, a correspondent of the Chronicle says he has learned that the French authorities in Paris are considering the surrender of the city to the Germans in order to avoid the destruction of property from ar tillery fire. This will only be done, the correspondent declares, in case the outer line of the defenses of Paris are passed by the invaders. British, French and Belgian wounded are being transferred from Paris to other cities, and the great exodus of the populace of the French capital to the south continues. The German right is at the rear of the retreating French who are falling back through Creil, Senlis and Crepy-en-Valois. This news would place the advance of the German host within perhaps twenty miles of Paris—their objective point. Information regarding t-he respective positions of the Germans and the allies is, however lacking. Mails reaching New York from London to-day bring a report, originating in Liverpool that British transports have landed 80.000 Russian troops in France. This matter was not permitted to pass the cable censors. Press reports of the operations in East add little to what in formation has come from official sources. In general they refer to fighting early in the week and confirm Russian claims of disaster to the Austrian armies in Galicia and German success in East Prus sia. The Russians have occupied Lemberg, the capital and strong hold of Austrian Galicia. Belgian advices say that a tourist arriving from Budapest de clared that the people there fear that the whole Austro-Hungarian structure may break down following the Austrian defeat by the Russians. Australia has arranged to send more infantry and light horse to support the allies. Premier Asquith opened the crusade to stimulate recruiting at a meeting in Guild Hall, London. He called upon every able-bodied Britan of military age to rally to the colors. The German Ambassador to the United States, Count Von Bernstorff, announced that he had positive information that two British cruisers oft' New York harbor were receiving supplies from a | vessel flying the American flag.
