There have been no cancellations of passages by ships of ‘this line. # Australian Line in Danger. The company that will be most seriously affected in.case Russia should declare war on Austria-Hungary is the Austro-American Line, known on the other. side as the Unioné Austriacca. The agents of this city are Phelps Bros. & Co., 17 Battery place. Tt was said at the office that the of- ficlals’ of ‘the line here and in the home office in Trieste were “up in the air” on the situation. Trieste had sent no orders to the loca] office and the agents were simply watching and ‘waiting. The Austro-American fleet of passenger and cargo carriers consists of thirty-six vessels. The passenger ships are the Kaiser Franz Joseph 1., the' Martha Washington, Laura, Oceania, Alice and Argentina.

The attitude of Greece has rot been defined yet and it takes time for orders to reach vessels at sea. Wireless to Play Tts Part. It was sald by a wireless man that even if the Greek battleship was or- | dered by her government by wireless to make prizes of whatever Austrian merchantmen she might run across it was_ljkely that,the wireless opera- tors of Austrian liners at sea would make it difficult for the battleship to receive or sehd messages. The wire- less- thus would play qufte a part in the strategy of the sea. So far only a small number timid persons booked to sail on Saturday have cancelled their pass- ages. This, a representative of one lice said, always happened when war scemed to impend between govern- ments abroad or there was a big steamship disaster.
