Happenings of the World Tersely Told

U.S— Teutonic War News The first legislative step toward a formal recognition of the existence of a state of war between the United States and Germany was taken at 11:10 o’clock Wednesday night, when the senate, by a vote of 82 to <l, passed the resolution declaring that the acts of Germany have brought about a state of war. Senators Gronna. La Follette and Morris, Republicans, and Lane, Stone and Vardanian, Democrats, voted against the resolution. Reuter's Amsterdam correspondent says President Wilson's address to congress has been answered in the German press by a storm of abuse. He quotes she Rhenische Zeitung as .saying: “Beyond striving for gold, the Americans have no ideal. They think everything can be achieved by gold. Their megalomania makes a grotesque impression on us Germans." • ,♦ • A three-hour speech by Senator La Follette of Wisconsin and a reply by Senator Williams of Mississippi in which he said Senator La Follette’s address would “better have become Herr von Bethmann-llollweg than an American senator,” featured a bitter debate in the senate at Washington on the resolution declaring'a state of war with Germany. • * * Detailed plans of the war depart* ment. ar Washington for raising an ,army, numbering millions if that is necessary “to bring the government of the German empire to terms," were placed in President Wilson's hands in the form of a bill prepared by the general staff and reviewed and revised in part by Secretary Baker and the general officers who are his military advisers. • '• • • • The crowded senate chamber at Washington was an inspiring sight as the all-day debate on the war resolution lasted into the. night, The gay gowns of hundreds of women in the jammed galleries, the solemn but at times vigorously emphatic senators on the floor, and the throng of members of the house who crowded the rear of the chamber made up a history-mak-ing assemblage, * * •
