The local post office will refuse all
mail addressed to Germany, In ac

Washington.
The order follows: "Ordered that,
during the continuance of hostilities
between the United tSates and Ger
many no letters, packages, or other
mail matter originating within the
United States or its possessions and
destined for Germany, or addressed to
any postoffic<\ port, or other place
within the jurisdiction of Germany, or
to any person residing within the jur
isdiction of Germany, shall be dis
patched from the United States to their
said destination: provided, however,
that nothing herein contained shall be
construed to authorize the seizure or
detention of any foreign-closed transit
mails for Germany originating in other
countries or originating In Germany
and destined for any other foreign
country (not her colony or depend
ency) while in transit over territory
of the United States, which dosed
mails should be returned by the United
States exchange office first receiving
them to the country whence received,
accompanied by a Bulletin of Verifi
cation stating that the United States
cannot act as intermediary for the for
warding of such mails.
"That for the purpose of executing
this order postmasters at post offices
of the United States and its possessions
are hereby instructed to send to the
division of Dead Letters, Post Office
Department, Washington, D. C., for re
turn to the senders or other appro

hibited dispatch as above indicated.
All Mutter Included
"This order is hereby made to in
clude all mail matter destined for Ger
many now remaining in the United
States and its possessions, and that
which may be mailed or received here
after.
"Postmasters will cause due notice
of the foregoing to be taken at their
offices and until otherwise instructed
refuse to accept for mailing any mail
matter destined for delivery in Ger
many.
"In view of the fact that under ex
isting conditions mail for Austria.
Hungary, Luxembourg, Bulgaria and
Turkey requires transit through Ger
many, to which country mall service
from the United States is now sus
pended, mail for those countries will be
treated, until otherwise ordered, in the
manner herein prescribed for mall des

those countries received in the United
states will be dispatched to destina
tion."
Xo I.CHVe of AliNenco
I.eaves of absence for postal em
ployes were canceled by Postmaster
General Burleson, "in anticipation of
unusual duties which will be imposed
upon the postal service through the ex
istence of war." Those doing military
duty are exempted in the order.
The action contemplates no specific
war service other than that now being
performed, but is calculated to fill up
any gaps and tighten up the postal
establishment on a war-time basis. Al
ready the Department's quarter of a
million employes are aiding in recruit
ing for the army and navy and in de
tecting the activities of foreign agents.
It is understood that steps are being

MONDAY EVENING,
BRAZILIAN SPIRIT
DEMANDING WAR
Patriotic Demonstrations Con
tinue as Anti-German
Feeling Grows
By Associated rrcss
1 Rio Janeiro, April 8. Up to six
o'clock this evening the foreign office
was without information from the
Paris legation in regard to the sink
ing of the Parana. The German min
ister had a fifty-minute conference
with President Braz and Foreign Min
ister Lauro Muller. The newspaper A
Noite says that the conference caused
no change in the attitude of the gov
ernment.
Patriotic demonstrations were con
tinued throughout the day but there
was no disorder. It is understood that
government action only awaits the ar
rival of the official reports from Paris
and Cherbourg. In official circles no
doubt is expressed that the government
will act decisively in accordance with
its warning to Germany when unre
stricted submarine warfare was de
clared. In this connection the word
ing of a telegram sent by Dr. Lauro
Muller to the Brazilian legation in
Berlin on February 13 is recalled. The
telegram said: "We will consider it
essential to the maintenance of friend
ly relations that no Brazilian ship be
attacked on the sea under any pretext,
even that of carrying contraband of
war, a,s the belligerent nations have
arbitrarily put everything into that
category."
An indication that Germany may de
ny that the Parana was the victim of
a German submarine is shown in state
ments appearing in newspaper hero
and attributed to German diplomatic
officials. According to these state
ments the Parana probably struck a
French or English mine as, it is con
tended, it is improbable that a Ger
main submarine would have been able
to operate so close to Havre. The Ger
man minister is quoted as asserting
that the testimony of the commander
of the Parana is open to suspicion be
cause he is a Portuguese.
The Commerce and Navigation Com
pany, owners of the Parana, have re
ceived a cablegram from the captain of
the steamer from Cherbourg saying
that after the vessel was torpedoed she
was struck five times by shells. The
company has turned the cablegram
over to the government. The news
that the Parana was shelled after she
had been torpedoed has increased the
indignation here over the incident.
The League of Allies has passed a
resolution requesting the Brazilian
government to immediately declare war
on Germany.

[Continued From First Paso]
thought to be now in Austria and Hun
gary with perhaps another 1,800 nat
uralized Austro-Americans, most of
whom may prefer to stay in their
country of birth. Oftieials here expect
no difficulties to be placed before Am
ericans in Austria and that all the Am
erican embassy officials will be per
mitted to leave without restraint or
inconvenience, owing to the decided
ly friendly feeling that Austria has
shown despite German pressure.
Austria has in this country about
fifty consular officers in addition to
her regular embassy staff, not includ
ing clerks, attaches and families. Safe
conduct for all will be arranged at
once and it is possible that the Aus
trians dismissed at this time may Join
the German officials dismissed from
China and Cuba, in order to journey
by the same route.
Ixxikotl For Break
Officials here deeply regretting the
necessity which has driven Austria to
the step she has taken are neverthe
less gratified at the way it has come
about and that the United States was
not responsible for it. As with the
recognition of a state of war with
Germany officials point out that the
situation was provoked by the other
side and not by the United States.
Officials here and in Vienna have
been prepared ever since February 3
for the present situation. At that time
American officials in Austria were in
structed by the State Department to
be ready to leave at any moment and
the same is thought true of Austrian
officials here.

Six customs officers boarded the
steamer soon after word was officially
received from Washington of the
breaking off of diplomatic relations
with Austria-Hungary. Only four
men were found on the ship and they
were turned over to the immigration
officials. The captain was not aboard,
he having notified the collector last

their daughter, Mrs. George R. Minot,
of this city, were with him at the end.
Mr. Olney's other daughter, Mrs. C. H.
Abbot, is residing temporarily In Paris.
Recently while unable to leave his
bed, Mr. Olney had displayed very
deep Interest In the international slt
uatlbn. It was said that he warmly
commended the action of the govern
ment when members of his family In
formed him on Friday that President
Wilson had signed a proclamation of

State during the administration of
President Cleveland, and although at
the head of the State Department for
the short period of one year and nine
months only, he won reputation as a
statesman of commanding ability and
force. His greatest triumph was his
successful insistence upon arbitration
of the boundary dispute between
Great Britain and Venezuela.
Imperturbably disregarding the
warnings that a rigid maintenance of
the Monroe Doctrine might plunge 'the
United States into war with Great Bri
tain, President Cleveland and Secre
tary Olney carried out their own ideas
of diplomacj'. In his famous message
sent through Ambassador Bayard to
Lord Salisbury, British Secretary of
State for foreign affairs, Mr. Olney,
premising the inalienable right of the
United States to intervene in questions
affecting the territorial integrity of
South American countries, said in
part:
"Great Britain both admits that
there is a controversy and that arbi
tration should be resorted to for its
adjustment. But while up to that
point her attitude leaves nothing to be
desired, its practical effect is com
pletely nullified by her Insistence that j
the submission shall cover but a part
of the controversy; that as a condi
tion of arbitrating her right to a part
of the disputed territory, the remain
der shall be turned over to her. Upon
what principle—except her feebleness
as a nation—is Venezuela to be denied
the right of having the claim heard
and passd upon by an impartial tribu
nal? 'lt is so, because I will It to be
so,' seems to be the only justification
Great Britain offers."
Agreed to Arbitration
Although I-ord Salisbury at first re
fused to submit to the American de
mand, upon further representations
he receded from his attitude and
agreed to the arbitration of the entire
dispute.
Mr. Olney's firmness previously had
become familiar to the American pub
lic through his action in the great
Chicago railroad strike and subse
quent riots, when as Attorney Gen
eral he upheld the right and duty
of the government to employ troops to
crush the disorder.
In refutation of charges that this
attitude indicated his hostility to la
bor unions, Mr. Olney, in a special
brief filed in a federal court In Penn
sylvania in the case of a railroad
trainmen's trike on the Reading rail
road, only five months after the end
of the Chicago strike, upheld the right
of labor to organize and urged that all
labor troubles should be arbitrated.
Stood High at Bar
Mr. Olney was born In Oxford,
Mass., in 1835. His father was a tex
tile manufacturer and banker. In the
years following his graduation from
the Harvard law school In ISSB, Mr.
Olney won high distinction in his pro
fession and became an authority on
matters of probate, trust and corpor
ation law. His sole appearance in
public office before going to Washing
ton was in 1875, when he served one
term in the Massachusetts House of
Representatives.
When, in 1904, he permitted the
presentation of his name at the Demo
cratic national convention as a can
didate for the presidential nomination,
he received 38 -votes, including the
solid support of the Massachusetts
delegation. President Wilson urged
him to accept appointment as ambas
sador to Great Britain and later of
fered him the position of governor of
the Federal Reserve Board, but in
each instance Mr. Olney declined.
His public utterances always com
manded thoughtful attention and at
tracted wide-spread comment. Dong
after his retirement from his com
paratively brief career in public office,
Mr, Olney's counsels were eagerly
sought by members of the Democratic
party, .......

INJUNCTION SUIT

INJUNCTION—S
Preliminary injunction proceedings

to prevent them from paying the G.
W. Ensign Company, contractors, for
paving work done there, were started
in Dauphin county court this morning
by Burgess William manning and
w - Rank, through Attorney
\\ illiam M. Hargest.
The hearing of the bill of complaint
and the answer will be held on Satur
day nvorning at 10 o'clock.
In the bill which was Hied to-day,
Burgess Blanning declares an ordi
nance was passed last year author
izing the paving of two blocks in Mar
ket street, Williamstown. This ordi
nance, he asserts is vague, obscure
and illegal, containing no definite pro
visions for the work to be done, and
no amount for payment.
Later a contract was let but has
never yet been approved, he contends,
and the work of grading the street,
paving 300 feet of the distance, and
laying 170 feet of sewer have all been
done by the Ensign Company to which
$4,000 has already been paid.
Since then bills have been presented
totaling more than $6,900, it is alleged,
Burgess Blanning starting the proceed
ings to-day to prevent any payment
on these, until the case has been
settled in court. It has also been asked
to have the ordinance authorizing the
work, declared illegal.
