The news that a state of war exists between England and Germany was received at the capital without a sign of popular ex- citement. No Deémonstrations. Extra editions of the newspapers containing the announcement were eagerly bought, but there were no demonstrations in the streets.

It was decided that parliament should at once be summoned to vote the funds needed to raise and equip a force of 20,000 men and if necessary despatch them to join the British armies at the front. Militia Prepared. For two weeks the military authori- ties have been preparing for the an- nouncement madg yesterday.

Secretary Stokes stated that he was due in New Haven week and that his presence here had nothing | to do with any worry over the teach- ing situation. He said a couple of substitutes had offered their services, but at present no thought has been given that matter. Besides the fact that many of the professors are away on Sabbatical years anyway It is the belief of the officials that many more will be able to return before the opening of college and there is no fear of the crippling of the teaching force. Among the members of the faculty now away in Europe are Professor Henry W. Farnam, who is exchange professor to the University of Ber- lin; Professor George Burton Adams, who is spending his Sabbatical year abroad, and is supposed to be in Eng- land now; Professor Bumstead, who is also a Sabbatical; Professor Harry B. Jepson of the Music school; Pro- fessor Oertel, head of the graduate school, who is on leave of absence, and Professor Horatio Reynolds. Professor Emeritus Tracy Peck is to leave this week for Rome despite the serious situation and the difficulty of ocean travel. Students in or months, and so would last Straits.
