Desperate Defense Expected. ,Bemld", The Germans are expected to put up a desperate defense both by land 8and sea. The German war fleet in the Orient has been getting ready in the harbor. for the last week. The cruisers have been prepared for ac- tion and. although far outnumbered are expected to attempt a rush on the Japanese the moment hostilities are opened. Tokio advices say that for the pres- ent at least there will be no levying of a war loan. The minister of finance believes the present budget will be ample for the extraordinary expendi- tures. There has been no excitement ' whatever in Tokio. The German em- bassy attaches are reported to have everything packed up in readiness to proceed to the United States when war is actually declared. It is the intention of the Germans to turn their affairs over to the Unit- ed States ambassador when they leave Japan.
