This -t itement was made Thursday nirht at th" British embassy un report? that a declaration of war is imminent. It was pointed ut that the mol.ili7atifn of the Turkish army ha.s no special risjnifica nee as the armies of Switzerland. Portugal and other powers have mobilized merely as precautionary measure?.

The days when British ports held a month's supply of wheat and ample reserve of feeding stuff for stock appear to be past and trade profits in timet of peace are now so small that there is now no longer a margin for carrying charges, for paying for the warehousing. That Hour and wheat have risen even slightly in price since the war scare became apparent, shows what might have been expected had war come when the harvest was two months off instead of two weeks. Markets an rssuc. 0 The first but least important issue of the war is that of the British markets being cut off from certain articles much in demand, but not absolutely necessary.

It is doubtful if Austria-Hungary will continue to export flour, for the wheat crop of the Lual Monarchy, even had there been no war. is very short this year.

MORE REFUGEES ARE BACK IN AMERICA

Tlioo In Steerage Claim U Filthy and Food Was Not Fit to I-Iat.

NEW YORK. ept. 4. Three refugee ships arrived here Thursday from Europe, bringing 2,060 passengers. The vessels were the American liner New York from Iaverpool with 9o2 cabin and steerage passengers; the Italian liner San Guglielmo. from Naples with CG9 cabin and steerage passengers on board, and the Greek liner loannina from Pireaus and Patras, with 4 39 aboard. On Xew York were 197 Americans in steerage, but most of the Americans ond this ship were in funds. Nearly all the passengers on the San Guglielmo were Americans and they were full of wrath. It was charged that the uuarters, especially those in the steerage were filthy and that the food was not fit to eat.

held in South Bend, September 17- i 18. At the meeting of the committee I

last night arrangements were made to blow up two battleships on the river fronting Howard park. This spectacular act will be a pyroteehnieal display that is pronounced to be a wonder. Two ships of the line will be fitted up in full war regalia and at the appointed hour they will be blown into smithereens. Locations of the various acts were decided upon. The balloon races will start from the courthouse square on the site of the old M. K. curch. On Main street facing the curt house the ski jumpers will put on their act. The slide for life will extend from the top of the stand pipe on Vistula av.

VasSovor into Howard park.

The aeroplane flights will be made from either Muessel or (diver field and probably both. It will be left to the aviator to decide which field offers the best starting facilities. "Micky" McGuire "The Wild Irish Rose" of the Lincoln Beachy corps of flyers will do the flying. The evening program of fireworks will be on the south bank of the river at Howard park. Band concerts will also be on tap at the park and on the court house square.
