NEW SHOPS TO BE BUILT BUT NOT NEXT WEEK

Work Will Not Be Started During Unsettled Times, Says Stinson. The Richmond division of the Pennsylvania railroad will build a new round house and shops in the east yards. But It may be two, it may be three and

it may be ten years before work of

construction is started. The oft revived story of the build

ing of mammoth railroad shops In the east yards came to light again Thurs

day and this time the total expenditure is placed at between $250,000 and $300,000. Stimson Says 'Twill Wait

Superintendent Stimson of the Rich

mond division said Friday that work would not be started during the pres

ent unsettled affairs and shortage of labor and high prices of building ma

terials. Plans have been under way for some time but are not yet completed. ' The Richmond officials will have to get authority from the heads of the lines before anything is done on the construction, he said.

AMERICAN TAR REALLY IS HELD

BOSTON, Aug. 24. Mayor Curley announced today that he had received

ti telegram from the navy department

pana, was a prisoner in the hands of

AUSTRIA CRIES

OR EARLY PEACE

COPENHAGEN. Aug. 25. An Austrt which is .literally crying for peace, which has discarded any thought of territorial expansion, and is even willing to buy its way out of the war by territorial sacrifices on the Italian front and In Galicia; an Austria of frequent food riots, unable to last through another winter of war; an Austria whose population would rise in revolution if any reasonable peace offer were rejected by the government, is pictured by an intelligent Austrian who has arrived here from Vienna. In a long talk with the correspondent today he told a story which though perhaps unduly pessimistic, explains the persistence of Count Czernin, Austro-Hungarian foreign minister, and of Emperor Charles in returning again and again to the sub.iect of peace negotiations. This Austrian, who spent several days in Fierlln on his way to Copenhagen, had an opportunity to talk with representatives of the German foreign office, and he said that all the men he talked with were convinced peace vin coming before winter.
