'CONTINUE | APPROVED ' ADVANCE IN ALSACE BY WILSON Plantu Buy Shmsmr French Forcing Ger- Furauy rade, mans o Ratlre. LATTER WILL NOT DEFEND SAARBURG Intention of Kaiser's Troops I to Make Determined Stand at Strasshurg. Paris, Aug. 20—The French ad- vance into Alsace-Lorraine continues. A brief official statement contirms the report that the Germans are fall- ing back upon Strassburg and that French armies are operating north from the Swiss frontier, having en- tered Alsace near Belfort, south from Nancy and east through all of the passes of the Vosges mountains. The general staff says the German retreat is in accordance with a pre- arranged plan. It is said the Ger mans have decided not to defend Saarburg and will make their first determined stand at Strassburg. The German resistance is stubborn and both sides are losing heavily. GERMANY PROPOSES T0 GHECKMATE JAPAN The Hague, Aug. 20.—The German kaiser is preparing to checkmate Ja- GONEERS WITH HOUSE AND SENATE LEADERS; Gongress Will Be Asked to Fur- nish Gash for Purchases. 3 ‘Washington, Aug. 20.—President Wilson has approved a plan to have; the government buy several ships to be used in taking American foodstuffa abroad. It was tentatively agreed that an appropriation of $25,000,000 would be asked of congress for the purchase of the ships. The president conferred with sen- ate and house leaders on the question of developing and safeguarding the American merchant marine and the purchase of ships and passage of a bill under which the government will undertake the insurance of war risks were agreed upon. Bills carrying out the plans will be introduced in both houses immediately. After the conference Secretary Tu- multy gave out a statement saying: Discuss Purchase of Ships. “In addition to the agreement as to the insurance bills there was an cxtensive discussion of the best; means for providing ships immediately to carry the goods now awaiting for the markets. ; “Several plans were proposed and it was finally agreed that a bill should be drawn and introduced at a very early date which should provide for| the purchase of an adequate number| of ships by the government and their operation through a corporation con- pan. If possible her ultimatum will be rendered ineffective. - Germany will probably voluntarily surrender to China the German colo- nies of Kiaochou. In turning back to China this territory the kaiser is expected to emphasize that Germany has been an economic force that has made for improved conditions in the Orient. While definite decision has not been reached a high German diplomat says G any is already negotiating with China to turn back to the Oriental republic all its leased territory. There is the most intense indigna- tion in German official circles over the position assumed by Japan. But it is believed the uitimatum was prepar- ed at the dictation of Great Britain, and that Japan in this instance is simply the agent of England. SAID BELGIANS WILL ABANDON BRUSSELS Paris, Aug. 20.—Widely circulated reports that the Belgians have defi- nitely abandoned the defenses of Brussels are without official confirma- tion. It is stated in official circles, how- ever, that these reports might be true. It was further stated that there never was any serious intention on the part of the Belgians to defend Brussels. In fact the plan for the general defense centered around Ant- werp. Tt was to be the center of the en- tire Belgian defense plans and it is believed when the Belgian general staft abandons Brussels for Antwerp it would be only in accord with pre- arranged plans MONTENEGRIN ARMY MOVING ON AUSTRIA London, Aug. 20.—A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph company from Rome says that a message from Cet- tinje states that the Montenegrin army is within two hours’ march of Ragusa, a fortified seaport of Austria- Hungary in Dalmatia, thirty-eight miles northwest of Cattaro. King Nicholas, the message adds, has been notified by the Austrian au- thorities that if his ‘army attacks, the large number of prominent Servians and Montenegrins held at Ragusa as hostages will be shot. Among the hostages is Count Ivo Vopmvnc, a brother of King \lcholas TASK NOT YET COMPLETED Problem of Assembling Americans in France and England. Washington, Aug. 20.—Diplomatic officials in Germany, Austria and Switzerland have instructions from the state department to arrange for the transfer to France and England of all Americans who want to come home. English line steamers have re- sumed sailings, it is reported, aud the transportation situation from French ports is completely adjusted. Secretary Garrison said it will be - possible to bring back by Oct. 3 all Americans in France: and England and refugees who: tan Tedch those countries. He added that the prob- lem now is to get transportation to France and England or to some neu- tral port f8F thié stranded tourists h‘ other. countrfés, ~ trolled by the government as in the case of the Panama Railway company,! which now operates ships as well as the railroad itself and which is con- trolled by the government.” In addition to the president those at the conference were Secretary Mc: Adoo, Senator Simmons, chairman of the senate finance committee; Repre- sentative Underwood, -chairman of! ihe house ways and means commit tee, and Represeutative Alezander, o man of the hou eomimittes on merchant mwa:nes fisheries.
