GERMAN CRUISERS DISABLED.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 18.—Two German cruisers have been disabled and brought into Hong Kong. Confirmation of this fact was received here today. The deck works, the turrets and the barbette of the two cruisers were demolished and their masts and funnels had been shot away. Their sides were stained with blood which had run through the scuppers.

Owing to the rigid censorship established by the British authorities at IJong Kong, It is impossible yet to obtain the names of the two German cruisers. Many German merchant vessels are lying in the harbor at Hong Kong.

Two warships, badly damaged and carrying many wounded, were reported to have entered Hong Kongr harbor on August 13. Their identity was not made public, but at the time it was believed they were either the British cruisers Minotaur and Hampshire, or the French cruisers DupQeix and Montcalm, which are reported to have had an engagement with the German cruisers Scharnhorst and Grieisenau.

cle« here that the withdrawal of the Belgian government from Brussels to Antwerp may- mean that the fighting In 'Belgium is drawing closer to the capital or it may bo merely a precautionary measure.

Now that the three allied armies are working together on a coherent campaign scheme, the policy of secrecy has been extended to Belgium and as a fountain of picturesque news, that country has suddenly dried up. The allied armies have decided for the present to bar all war correspondents frc*n accompanying the armies, but it Is thought the ban may be raised later, when the military operations are well under way.

The official news bureau says not a single casualty occurred during the embarkation, transportation and debarkation of the men and stores of the British expeditionary force, and everything was carried through with the greatest precision.

regarded with disfavor efforts he believed were being made to embroil the Unted States in the controversy in the far east or In Europe-

The president is understood to be deeply concerned because naturalized Americans, who came from countries now at war, have taken sides in public discussions in the United States of tha European war. On previous occasions he has publicly'spoken against what he termed "hyphenated Americans," declaring that citizens of the United States should be Americans only, not Irish-American, German-American, or other classifications of this sort. This feeling is understood to have prompted the issuance of his statement today.

He was In Lima, Peru, in 1913, and in China In 1011. Mr. Brittlebank is a member of Terre Haute commandery No. 16, Knights Templar, and usually visits Terre Haute on his return from a foreign trip.

GERMANY WILL RESIST JAPAN

Continued From Page One.

German standpoint, that Germany should seek a colonial lodgement in China, the same as had England, France and Russia.

Baron Speck took some part In the negotiations by which Germany sought to participate with England In the development of the rich Yang Tsl region, but when this failed, the attention of Germany was centered on Kiao Chow, which had been acquired by lease from China as part of the indemnity for the killing of the German missionaries in Shan Tung.

During this period of China's transformation the German contention is that England was foremost in China's dismemberment. After the ChinaJapan war, when China's weakness was for.the first time disclosed, the "breakup of China" Is said by Germans to have been widely discussed by English public men, this phrase being changed later to "spheres of Influence," embracing England at Hong Kong and the Yang Tsi Germany at Kiao Chow, France in Tonkin, and Russia at Port Arthur and Manchuria.

Why Should Germany Surrender? The Russo-Japanese war ended Russia's claims on Port Arthur, Manchuria and Korea and thereafter Japan took a dominant place in these territories, all of which has been a part of China or under her suzerainty. Thus, according to the German view, China's territorial integrity was no more violated at Kiao Chow than it was by the other great nations, England, France, Russia and Japan, which continue to be held without a suggestion that it is a violation of China's territorial integrity. Therefore, she will ask why she will give up Kiao Chow to "preserve China's territorial integrity" when the other great powers retain their colonies there.

Through the efforts of the other powers to obtain possessions there, it has been the policy to protect China. While this led the United States to favor "the territorial integrity of China" as a general principle of fairness, this country has never gone to the extent of guaranteeing to China the protection of her territory or objecting to the large foreign colonies now established in China,

Secretary Hay's "open door" policy was In aeoordance with the general principle of China's territorial integrity and the equal right of all countries

In China. But the "open door" policy did not resist the establishment of foreign colonies in China, but maintained that all such colonies, as well as the ports of China, shoud be open to the United States on equal terms with other countries. It is pointed out, therefore, that the American policy throughout, both as to "territorial integrity" of China and the "open door" in China, has been one of the princi
