THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 28, 1914. BLOCKADE IN CHINA FORMALLY BEGUN Japanese Fleet Appears Off Kiau-Chau and Shells Un occupied Island. TROOPS' LANDING DELAYED Hcavj Roads After Summer Hains likely to Deter Attack Ameri can Consul Still Deter mined to Remain. TSING-TAL" Aug. 27. Vice-Admiral Sadakichi Kato. from his flagship, th- battleship Suwo. sent a wire less message to Governor Meyer Waldeck this morning declaring a blockade of the leased territory of Kiau-Chau. Later the Japanese war chips appeared outside the harbor and shelled a small island off the coast which was not occupied by the Ger mans mere is no evidence here today or the landing of Japanese troops In the Kiau-Chau territory. It is believed that the heavy roads of Kiau-Chau. after the Summer rains, will deter any Japanese attacks for many days. All native shipping In Kiau-Chau Bay has been suspended. American Consul Still Stnya. The German government notified William R. Peck, American Consul at Kiau-Chau, that be had -'4 hours to leave if he so desired. Mr. Peck, how ever, elected to remain. PEKIN. Aug. 27. In his wire less message notifying the German Governor uf Kiau-Chau of the Japa nese blockade of Tsing-Tau, Vice-Admiral Kato said he wouid grant neutral sl.luping 24 hour:: III which to leave the harbor and the same period for non-combatants to leave the town. The blockading fleet is the Japanese second squadron. The Japanese legation has asked this government to remove the Chinese troops from the 50 kilometer zone (the area extending about 30 miles around Kiau-Chau) In order to preclude the possibility or disagreement. DrmanilH on China Denied. Both the Japanese legation and the Chinese Foreign Office deny sensation al newspaper statements, some of them emanating from the press of Japan, to the effect that the newly arrived Jap anese Minister, Eki Hloki. brought Irom Tokio demands that would make China a suzerain state. Such publi cations supported by reports of Ameri ca's suspicions of Japan, are exciting IntenBe feeling among the Chinese, whose sympathies appear to be en tirely with the Germans. TOKIO. Aug. 2". The censoring of news from China is most effective. It Is believed here, however, that Japan has not yet landed troops at Kiau Chau. There is reason to believe that the Japanese navy is carefully sweep ing the waters around Kiau-Chau for mines, which, it is known, have been submerged recently in large numbers. Assurances have oeen received here from Pekin that President Yuan Shi Kai and his government are amply satisfied with Japan's pledges concern ing the future safeguarding of Chinese and British interests and the mainte nance ot the commercial status quo, and he has promise of assistance to prevent Chinese revolutionists from seizing this occasion to create disorder. JAPAN STAYS IN PACIFIC Anibusi-ador Denounces Tale of Voy age to Adriatic as Absurd. WASHINGTON. Aug. 2 7. Viscount Chinda, the Japanese Ambassador, to day issued this statement: "Nothing is more absurd than the purport of a London telegram appear ing In some of the newspapers this morning intimating that Japan's an swer to ,the Austrian declaration of war will be the dispatch of a squad ron to the Adriatic. "The terms of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, solely under whicli Japan is acting, contain nothing which will ob ligate Japan to go that far, nor is there any intent or inducement what ever for Japan to embroil herself in this European war in Europe itself. If she succeeds in fulfilling her obliga tion under and achieving the object of the Anglo-Japanese alliance treaty, there she will stop." BRITISH PROTEST RELATED (Continued From First Page.) grave, and I asked him whether there till was not time to draw back and avoid possible consequences which both he and I would deplore. "He replied that for reasons he had given me, it was now impossible for him to draw back." German Answer Vnchanged. The British Ambassador went to the German foreign Ofuce again the same day and informed the secretary that unless the imperial government could give assurances by 12 o'clock that night that they would proceed no fur ther with the violation of the Belgian frontier and stop their advance, he had been instructed to demand his pass ports and to inform the imperial gov ernment that his majesty's government would have to take all steps in its power to uphold neutral Belgium and the observance of the treaty to which Germany was as much a party as Great Britain. -lerr von Jagow," says the report, "replied that to his great regret he could give no other answer than that which he had given me earlier in the day, namely, that the safety o the empire rendered it absolutely neces sary that the Imperial troops should advance through Belgium. "I gave his excellency a written summary of your telegram, and, point ing out that you had mentioned 12 o'clock as the time when his majesty's government would expect an answer, asked him whether, in view of the ter rible consequences which would neces sarily ensue, it was not possible even at the last moment that their answer should be reconsidered. He replied that if the time given were even 24 hours or more his answer must be the same. I said that in that case. I should have to demand my passports. "The interview took place about 7 P. Mi In a short conversation which ensued he expressed his regret at the crumbling of his entire policy and that of the imperial chancellor, whicn had been to make friends with Eng land, and then, through Great Britain, to get closer to France. Imperial Chancellor Much Excited. "I said that this sudden end to my work in Berlin was to me also a matter of deep regret and disappointment, but that he must understand that un der the circumstances and in view of our engagements. His Majesty's gov ernment could not have acted other wise than it had done." The Ambassador then went to see the Imperial Chancellor. Dr. von Beth-mann-Hollweg. and he found him much excited. "The Chancellor," says the report, "began a harangue, which lasted about 20 minutes. He said the step taken by England was terrible to a degree. Just for a word, 'neutrality' a word, which in war time had been so often disregarded; Just for a scrap of paper England was going to make war on a kindred nation who desired nothing better than to be friends with her. All his efforts In that direction had been rendered useless by this last terrible step and the policy to which, as I knew, he had devoted himself since his ac cession to office, was tumbled down like a house of cards. Britain Held Responsible. "What we had done was unthinkable. It was like striking a man from be hind while he was fighting for his life against two assailants. He held Great Britain responsible for all the terrible events that might happen. "I protested strongly against this statement and said that In the same way as he and Herr von Jagow wished me to understand that for strategic reasons it was a matter of life or deatli to Germany to advance through Belgium and violate the latter's neu trality, so I would wish him to under stand that it was, so to speak, a mat ter of life or death for the honor of Great Britain that she should keep her solemn engagement to do her ut most to defend Belgium's neutrality if attacked. A solemn compact sim plv had to be kept, or what confidence could anyone have In engagements given bv England in the future? "The Chancellor said: 'But at what price will that compact have been kept? Has the British government thought of that?' Tragedy of Nations Noted. I hinted as plainly as I could that consequences could hardly be regarded as an excuse for breaking a solemn engagement. But His Excellency was so excited, so evidently overcome by the news of our action, so little dis posed to hear reason, that I refrained from adding fuel to the flame by further argument. "As I was leaving he said that the blow of England's Joining Germany's enemies was all the greater because almost up to the last moment he and his government had been working with us and supporting our efforts to main tain peace between Austria and Rus- J said that this was part of the tragedy which saw two nations fall apart Just at the moment when the relations between them were more friendly and cordial than they had been for years. Unfortunately, notwith standing our efforts to maintain peace between Austria and Russia, war has spread and brought us face to face with a situation which entailed our separation from our late fellow-workers. He would readily understand that no one regretted this more than I." Mob Gathers BeforeEmliaasy. The British Ambassador declares he handed a telegraph report of the con versation to the telegraph office in Berlin for transmission but that it never reached the British Foreign Office. XT . That night Herr Zimmerman, Under Secretary of State, called on Sir Wil liam Goschen and asked whether the call for his passports was equivalent to' a declaration of war. The Ambas sador replied tht there had been cases where diplomatic relations had been broken off in which war had not ensued, but his instructions showed that if a reply were not received by 12 o'clock England would take such steps as her engagements require. Herr Zimmerman said that it was in fact a declaration of war, as Germany could not give the assurances required. Soon afterward a fly sheet was Is sued by the Berliner Tageblatt saying that Great Britain had declared war on Germany. "Immediately." says the report, 'an exceedingly excited and unruly mob assembled before the embassy and the police were overpowered. We took no notice of this until the crash of glass and the landing of cobblestones in the drawing-room where we were all sit ting warned us that the situation was getting unpleasant." Amends Made for Disturbance. The Ambassador telephoned to the Foreign Office and police were sent and cleared the street. No more direct unpleasantness occurred. Herr von Jagow called and expressed his re grets. He said the behavior of his countrymen made him feel more ashamed than he could say. He had decided that the news of the declara tion of war should not be published until the following morning, and for that reason had only sent a small force of police to protect the Embassy. The next day the Emperor sent an aide with a message in which the Em peror expressed regret for the inci dent and also requested the Ambassa dor to tell the King of England that he would at once divest himself of his British titles. With respect to this message, Ambassador says: "The message lost none of acerbity by the manner of its the lt de- livery." Officials Show Courtesy. The Ambassador speaks highly of the courtesy received at the hands of Herr von Jagow and the officials of the Foreign Office. On the morning of his departure the Ambassador and the members of the staff were smug gled in taxicabs through streets pa trolled by strong forces of police and every arrangement was made for their comfort. They suffered no molesta tion, says the Ambassador, "such as that meted out by the crowd to my Russian and French colleagues." A Colonel of the guards accompanied the train to the Dutch frontier and was exceedingly kind in his efforts to prevent the great crowds which thronged the platforms of every sta tion where tiie train stopped from in sulting the British representatives. FRANCE VOICES PROTEST PHASES OF PLAN FOR MERCHANT MARINE DISAPPROVED. Proposed Purchase of German Vessels Regarded mm Giving: Financial As sistance to Enemy. WASHINGTON. Aug. 27. France ex pressed today to the United States her disapproval of certain phases of the Administration's plan to blld up a merchant marine through the purchase of foreign ships. Jules Jusserand, the French Ambas sador, had a long talk with President Wilson, and indicated, It Is said, that the French government would view with displeasure the purchase by the United States of any German-owned ships. The viewpoint of France is that vast sums of money would be made avail able for the use of the Germans through the sale of ships which are now marooned in neutral ports. The French contend, moreover, that as the alWes have swept German commerce off the seas, the American Govern ment would be giving resources for food supply to Germany which she otherwise would not get. and which assistance the United States, as a neu tral, is not obliged to render. Experiments with wireless have shown that sicnals vary closely with the Inverse o. nioonliKlit Intensity. JAPAN AND AUSTRIA ARE AT WAR-WILSON President Ignores Technical Absence of Formal Declara- 1 tinn hu Fithor Qirip HUM MJ k. I LI I VI vsimwb NEUTRALITY IS DECLARED Austria's Notice of Intention to Join Germany In Defense of Tsing Tau Considered Tokio Calls It Rupture of Relations. WASHINGTON. Aug. 27. President Wilson today issued a proclamation of neutrality recognizing that a "state of war unhappily exists between Japan and Austria-Hungary." It is similar to other proclamations previously issued. Ambassador Dumba, of Austria, to day formally notified the United States that diplomatic relations between Aus tria and Japan had been severed, but made no reference to any declaration of war. The issuance of the Presidents proclamation of neutrality as between Japan and Austria followed an unusual sequence of events, during which, so tar as officials here are aware, neither country actually declared war. "State of War" Defined. "A state of war" was recognized by this Government as existing because Ambassador Dumba. of Austria, notified the State Department that the Emperor of Austria-Hungary had instructed the cruiser Kaiserin Elizabeth to Join the German fleet in defense of Tslng-Tau. Orders were transmitted last Monday from Vienna through Washington to the officers of the Austrian vessel to dismantle her. Press dispatches from Tslng-Tau last night said the orders had been carried out and the crew had left. The American Government, however, took cognizance only of Austria's noti fication of her intention to join the Germans in defense of Tsing-Tau and the proclamation of neutrality fol lowed. Fleet Not Gone to Adriatic. The Japanese Embassy here issued a statement today denying reports that Japan would send a fleet to the Adri atic. TOKIO, Aug. 27. The situation be tween Japan and Austria is described here as "a rupture of diplomatic re lations, not war." The Austro-Hungarian Ambassador explained to Premier Kato that Aus tria felt in duty bound to follow her ally and withdraw her Ambassador from Japan. M. Kato tonight sent his secretary to the diplomat carrying the latter's passport. The members of the Austrian Em bassy are hastening their arrangements so as to sail on the Manchuria for San Francisco Saturday. The German Ambassador. Count Von Rex. will take passage on the Minne sota for Seattle the same day. The in terests of both embassies will be looked after by the American Ambassador.

Arriving at the mouth of the upper harbor, off Tompkinsville, about 9:15 o'clock, the Graecia encountered the battleship Florida, which is preserving the port's neutrality. The German lay to at the Florida's order, remaining at anchor more than half an hour while the- warship's captain satisfied himself that she had her clearance papers. The Graecia was then released and started to sea at full speed. mu r nf the Graecia's cargo was not made known but it was learned that the German had taken on 3000 tons of coal and a large supply of stores. She is one of the smallest of the foreign ships in port, having ac commodations for about 50 passengers and about 15 knots an hour. Her owners have given her a new captain, Theodore Metzenchin, on whom now rests the responsibility of running the British blockade. When outside the bar the Graecia dropped her pilot, put out her lights and was lost to view. RAILWAY GIVES $100,000 Canadian Pacific Votes Money to Help Mobilize Troops. MONTREAL, Aug" 27. The directors of the Canadian Pacific Railway Com pany today decided to vote $100,000 to the Canadian patriotic fund. A move ment is on foot to have each employe of the road to donate a full day's pay. This would make another $100,000 for the fund, which will be used in part to defray the expenses of the mobilized Canadian troops.

NEW WAR CHIEF CONFIDENT Message of Encouragement Is Sent French Army In Field. PARIS, Aug. 27. Alexandre Mil- lerand, who became minister of the new cabinet formed last night, today ad dressed the following letter to General Joffre, commander-in-chief o the French army: "My Dear General: On assuming tne ministry of war, I wish, as my first act, to send to the troops under your com mand and their chiefs the confidence of the government of the republic and the country. France is assured of vic tory because she is resolved to get it. "Following your example ana mat of your armies, France will maintain to the end calm self-control, with an earnest hope of success. Subject to iron discipline, which is the law and strength of the armies, the whole na tion, rising in defense of its soil and liberties, has accepted resolutely every ordeal, even the most cruel.

LONDON, Aug. 27. General Joseph Joffre, Commander-in-Chief of the French forces, in a telegram to Field Marshal Sir John French, commander of the British forces, says: "The British army did not hesitate, but threw its whole strength against forces which had great numerical su periority. In so doing it contributed in a most effective manner to securing the left wing of the French army. "It exhibited in this task devotion, energy and perseverance, to which I must now pay my tribute qualities which will again be shown tomorrow and make sure the triumph of our com mon cause. The French army will never forget the services rendered it. Our army is inspired with the same spirit of sacrifice and the determina tion to conquest which animates the British forces and will make good to them its debt of gratitude In the battles in the near future."

RUSSIAN VICTORY SEEN CJ6AR CAS HI RL 20,000,000 MEN AT GERMANS, SAYS DISPATCH. Teuton Opposition Held to Be Broken and Demoralised and Penetration of Interior Is Predicted. LONDON. Aug. 27. A dispatch to the Pest from St. Petersburg comments on the excellence of the Russian army and the inexhaustible supply ot men to draw upon. It says further: "Russia will have no difficulty in finding 20,000,000 men to complete the work begun by its trained fighting forces. Moreover, this is the first time in the memory of men that the Rus sian army has taken the field with adequate equipment and a sufficiency of .supplies, under officers trained In the hard lesson so thoroughly learned in the Japanese campaign. "The history of that campaign shows what Russian soldiers accomplished when badly fed and equipped, but under the conditions of today anl fighting in a cause they understand, there Is lttrte.wonder that the Russian soldiers have proved themselves a match for the Germans. "The German opposition to the kus slan advance is broken and de moralized. Koenigsberg, where three German army corps have taken refuge, Is so situated it can easily be cap tured by an adequate force, while the rest of the Russian army passes on SOME KNOWN FACTS ABOUT RHEUMATISM There are many things that are still unknown about rheumatism. The treat, ment of it is still far from satisfactory. Doctors realize this but nobody is more fully aware of it than the sufferers themselves. A tendency to rheumatism once es tablished, the pain often returns with every change of weather, showing that the poison is still in the blood await ing favorable conditions to become ac tive and cause trouble. One fact is known and acknowledged by all medical writers and that Is the rapid thinning of the blood when the rheumatic poison invades It. Building up the blood is the best remedy for rheumatism as the enriched blood is able to overcome or throw off the poisons of the disease. For this reason rheumatic sufferers should be interest ed in the success which Dr. Williams Pink Pills have had in the treatment cf this painful disease. A book. "Building Up the Blood." will be sent free on request by The Dr. Williams Medicine Co.. Schenectady, N. Y It contains directions regarding diet, baths and hygiene for rheumatic patients.
