The tradi tional sentiment of the home rulers that England’s extremity is Ireland’s opportunity was buried when the Irish members murmured “hear, hear,” to the premier's plea for unify. Sentiment for Neutrality, Not only the home rule question, but all measures likely to arouse party or_international hostilities have been side-tracked. They include the naval vote, which inevitably excites discus- sion’ of Germany’s policy and the vote imperial defense.

New York, July 30.—The New York Yacht club ceiebrated tonight the sev- entieth anniversary of its organiza- tion, with an {llumination of the fleet, assembled in Glen Cove, L. L, for an- nual cruise.

ANSWERED SLURS ON HIS WIFE WITH REVOLVER. Hartford Man Fired Four Shots— Victim Likely- to Die. Hartfqrd, Conn., July 30.—Gaetano Santo, aged 60, is believed to be dying in - Hartford hospital, and Cincenzo Ceravolo, aged 35, is under arrest, as the Tesult of a quarrel late today over the latter’s wife. According to the po- Hce, Santo made slurring remarks about_Mrs. Ceravolo and accused her of unfaithfulness.

Looks With Doubt Upon Success of European Diplomacy to Bring About Peace. Vienna, July 30.—Opinion concerning Russia’s attitude in the Austro-Ser- vian situation is becoming extremely pessimistic. The feeling of pessim- was strengthened today by the news of Russia's preparations which ‘was Tegarded here as meaning a eom- plete mobilization of the Russian forces. It is well known here that the peace efforts of European diplomacy will not succeed if Russia considers her long fostered plans at last ripe for realization. The only news thus far received from the Servian side concerns the damage to the Selim-Belgrade bridge. The bridge was regarded as neutral and its destruction is therefore con- sidered a breach of international law. Austrian Troops Push Forward. A semi-official despatch received here tonight concerning the movements of the Austrian troops says: “The covering line of our troops on the River Drina has been pressed for- ward to the main arm of the river. There was some fighting during this advance, but not of ‘a serious charact- er. One man on the Austrian side and about ten Servians were killed. Bands or Servians vainly attempted to harrass the Austrians at Bjelina.” Bjelina is in the north corner of Bosnia_ between the rivers Save and Drina. Austrians Shoy Loyalty to Emperor. Fmperor Francis Joseph's arrival here today from Ischl was the occas- sion for one of the greatest demon- \strations ever witnessed in: Vienna. A crowd estimated to the number of 30,000 gathered at the station and cheered tho emperor with frenzied Joyalty. ''he emperor appeared to be in better hcalth than for a long time past and was deeply moved with the warmth of his reception. Cafes, restaurants and other resorts are now deserted of evenings, while the main streets are filled with sing- ing and cheering processions From all parts of the monarchy comes news of old officers and soldlers volunteering for active service The volunteers include numbers. of men of Bosnian origin, who display patriot- ism equal to that of the Austrians.

Washington, July 30.—The possibil- ity that Japan might become involved in a general war should her ally, £n, land, be drawn into the threatened vortex in Lurope, was discussed today in diplomatic circles here. The exist- ing treaty of alliance between Great Britain and Japan, signed in 1905 and renewed in 1911, provides that the two countries shall ‘support each other in the event of an attack or aggressive action against either in eastern Asia or India by another power. Rumors of Secret Clauses. From time to time there have been rumors of secret clauses, greatly ex- tending the scope of the convention, and making it apply to hostllities con- ducted outside the far cast, but the existence of any such extra provisions is unknown o the state department or to the Japanese embassy here. Therefore the possibility of - Japan’s being drawn into any war that might involve Great Britain with Germany, Austria_or Italy is believed here (o hinge entirely upon naval develop- ments 1u the Far Easf First Blow Possible in the East, In those waters are many vessels of European powers looking after (] interests of their citizens resident in China_Korea and Japan. Just as the first blow in the naval war between the United States and Spain in 1898 was unexpectedly struck in the far away Philippines, the first clash be- tween European poyers might occur in the China sea. And if the British fleet there should engage in hostilities with the German and Austrian and Italian vessels, many believe Japan would be called upon to aid her ally. Fleets in the East. Aside from Japan's navy, the inter- national far eastern fleet is made up largely of cruisers. Many of the ves- sels, however, are more powerful than any’ of the American warships that followed Dewey’s pennant into Manila | bay sixteen years ago. Great Britain, including her East Indian squadron, has two battleships, two large cruisers, four light cruisers and thirty-five smaller craft ,including gunboats, des- troyers, torpedo and submarines. Germany has two armored cruisers four light cruisers, seven gunboats and m::l‘:my":‘ sers, n : has four light cruls eight. g g e B thirteen submarines, the latter said to be ‘in poor condition, The French fleet in the Oriént in- cludes two armored cruisers, five gun- boats and one destroyer. Italy had only one cruiser at report in Asiatic waters. America’s Navy Would Have Work. The American navy in the Philip- pines and Chinese waters comprises one first class cruiser, two third class cruisers, ten gunboats, two monitors, five destroyers and a number of aux- iliaries. In the event of war this fleet might play an important part in look- ing after American interests and per- haps In caring for the rights of the citizens of neutral governments threat- ened by the vicissitudes of war, last Japan Watchfuily Waiting. Tokio, July 30.—Japan's attitude on the European crisis may be described as one of watchful waiting. If Great Britain becomes involved in the war and British rights and interests in eastern Asia or India are-menaced or attacked, it is stated that Japan, in fulfillment of the -terms of her alli- ance with Great Britain, will assist that country. However, if the war is limited to Europe, Japan probably will remain neutral. Several of the newspapers say the withdrawal of Russia's forces from the Far East would afford Japan an op- portunity to extend her influence in Asia. A suggestion has been made here that Japan and the United States sim- ultaneously essay mediation in the Eu- ropean crisis. J The first Japanese fleet is lying in Toklo bay. The second fleet Is en- gaged in torpedo practice off the coast of Korea. | HOPEFUL FOR PEACE IN TROUBLED MEXICO ent Wilson Says Situation Decidedly Encouraging. — Pre: Is Washington, July 30.—Referring to the Mexican situation generally Pres- ident Wilson today described the out- look for peace as “entirely encour- aging.” Advices from every quarter to the Washington government show a trend toward theSrestoration of tran- quility throughout the republic.

Mediation Dby the federal board having failed, the president today requested the mem. Dbers of the board, the general mana- gers' committee and the representx- tives of the men to confer with him at the White House on Seturday. Accept Invitation. His invitation immediately was ac- cepted. William L. Chambers aad Judge Martin A. Knapp, members of the board of ~mediation, concillation and arbitration, left tonight for tne capltal. Several members of the gen- eral managers' committee also start>d for Washington. They will advise ih president, preparatory to the conf. ence on the following day. G. W. W. Hanger, third member. of the board, remained in Chicago (o look after possible developments, ai- though none are expected. May Involve 100,000 Oilers and Wipers If the president cannot persuade the employes to arbitrate, a strike will be called’ Wednesday or Thursday, i is said. In addition to the engineers and firemen, 100,000 oilers and wipers and other railroad employes may be in- volved indirectly. Mr. Hanger asserted tonight that after the board had met separately with the employes and employers for three days the futility of a settlement by mediation was realized. The com- missioners continued to meet with the committee seven ys more in the hope of finding e grounds om ‘which the men would agree to arbitra- tion. Hope, he said., was abandoned Aesterday and the mediators notified President Wilsqn of the situation. The president_immediately invited the fac- tions to Washington to meet him. PANAMA CANAL WILL BE STRATEGIC HIGHWAY. Will Play Important Part in Event of European War. ‘Washington, July 30.—The Panama canal, which will be open to commerce in another two weeks, is destined at the outset to become a strategic high- away of thesworld, if the present hos- ties ‘between Austria-Hungary and ia_deyelop into a general conflict involving the other great Buropean wers. There was much speculati>n in diplomatie circles tonight over the part the great isthmian waferway may play in the impending events. ‘Treaty stipulation provides that the Panama waterway, like the Suez canal, shall be absolutely neutralfzed. it “shall be free and open to the ves- sels of commerce and of war of all na- tions” and “shall never be blockaded, nor shall any right of war be exercised nor any act of hostility be committed with in.” It was suggested here that a large part of the commerce which :s | now passing through Suez might be diverted to Panama if a general Euro Pean conflict filled the Mediterranean ‘with” fighting craft. The Hability of search would be a hazard to Suez and Mediterranein commerce if the present heavy war | clouds burst, and commercial activities might be more curtailed as the partes to the conflict defined more sharply the | commodities to be included in contra- band of war. While the vessels of war, as well as of commerce, of belligerents may free- Iy use the canal, exact rules have been devised to maintain the strictest neu- trality of the waterwa: The transit of war vessels must be made with ine least possible delay and with only such intermissions as may result from the | necessities of the service. No belliger- ent m “embark or dlsembark troops, munitions of.war or warlike materials in the canal, except in case of acci- dental hindrance of the transit, and In such case the transit shall be resumed with all possible despatch.” The treaty provisions prohibiting any act of hostility in the canal pre. clude any war vessel from exercising | the right of search on a commercial vessel In transit through the water- way and this provision likewise pro- tects all ships within three marine milés of elther terminal. What may happen to vessels carrying contraband | on. the high seas of the Atlantic or | Pacific is their own account. War vas- sels may not remain in the three mile terminal limit longer than 24 hours, | and the treaty stipulates that “a ves- sel of one belligerent shall not depart within 24 hours from the departure of a vessel of war of the other belligsr- ent.
