Near ly 100.000 men have answered the call, but what of the million who remain behind? Have they enlisted In a brigade of 'whole skins'?" Lady Maxwell In Speech treses Brltona te Be aa Patriotic and Brave mm Other Europeans. LONDON. Sept. 17 Englishwomen have organized the Order of the White Feather for the purpose of decorating with a badge of shame every young and able-bodied Englishman who has not joined the army. A rousing appeal by a soldier's wife to the men of England has been made by Lady Maxwell, wife of Lieutenant cieneral Sir John Grenfell Maxwell, for mer Colonel of the famous Slack Watch regiment of Highlanders. "Every man in Germany, every man in France, all save the old and the halt and the ill have risen to their country's call and gone forth to prove their manhood or to die," she declares. "Will Englishmen alone 'sit by the fire end spin'? "Must we feel ashamed to be English women when we see you skulking at home, watching football or cricket matches, lying on the grass in the sun, safe and secure as you fondly delude yourselves while the manhood of Eu rope is shedding its blood on the bat tlefields? Awake! Awake! If you will not answer the call of the bugle, at least let the women's voices call you out to fight for us and for our chil dren! I am a woman, alas! and I can not go; but my man is gone, and had sons I would send every one forth to fight for England's sake. "Will you let the Germans brand you as a nation of cowards? They have called you a nation of shopkeepers. What then? But will you be scorned by a nation of waiters? Tet the wait ers have dropped their napkins and gone forth to fight. Won't the sturdy 'shopkeepers' put up their shutters and PASSPORTS WILL BE GOOD "Warning Issued to 1 reign-Born Citizens -Misinterpreted. WASHINGTON, Sept, 17. London re ports that American diplomatic and consular officers in Europe had been instructed that passports Issued to nat uralized Americans born in Germany would not be good in Great Britain, France, Russia, Servia and Belgium were formally denied teday by the State Department. The Department, however, did reiter ate its former notice that naturalized Americans should refrain from visiting their "countries of origin or countries which are at war therewith," because "it apprehended that naturalized Amer ican citizens may experience difficulty In establishing satisfactorily their dis interestedness and neutral position as well as their American citizenship." "The Department's notice was intend ed simply as a warning and not as a statement limiting in any way the pro tection, which this Government extends to Americans abroad," said an official statement today. Argentina Ready to Pay Gold. WASHINGTON. Sept. 17. The Ar gentine Embassy here was notified to day from Buenos Ayres that "the Ar gentine government has already placed, with due anticipation, at the disposal of the bankers in Europe the total sum in gold due on October 1, next, to meet Its obligations in connection with the external debt of the nation."

Destruction of Historic City and Bat tle of Mobs Seen by Ex-Reporter of San Francisco.- SAN FRANCISCO, Sept- 17. (Spe cial.) Will Irwin, the writer, once a Stanford student and a reporter on the San Francisco Chronicle, has reached London after witnessing the battle of Mons and the destruction of Louvain, according to a letter received here by the Mining and Scientific Press from T. A. Rickard, a mining engineer who Is now in London. This is what Rickard says of Irwin's account of the sacking of Louvain: "According to him, some Boy Scouts did attack the Germans, killing three officers, and this is why the old city was sacked. It appears that whenever a shot was fired from any house, the Germans killed everybody in it, men, women and children, as he came to know by going later to the house where he had lodged. This exasperated the Belgians so as to drive the boys to retaliate. It makes the story more hor rible, but it does not excuse the en emy's barbarity." NOTABLE OFFICERS KILLED British Captain, Oi.ce Held In Ger many for Spying, Among Dead. LONDON. Sept. 17. Among the British officers killed, as made known in a casualty list issued tonight, was Captain Bertram Stewart, of the. West Kent Yeomanry. Captain Stewart was one of two offi. cers who were Imprisoned in a Ger man fortress for several months for spying and was pardoned by Emperor William on the occasion of his last visit to England. In the list of dead also appear the names of Colonel Sir Evelyn Ridley Bradford, of the Seaforth Highlanders, who was a well-known Londoner, and Lieutenant-Colonel Louis St. Gratien Le Marchant, of the East regiment. HIGH FLYER HIT 10 TIMES British Naval Officer Tells of Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse's Sinking. LONDON, Sept. 17. An officer of the British cruiser High Flyer has given the following account of the sinking of the North German Lloyd trans Atlantic liner Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse off the coast of Africa, the latter part of August: "While we were coaling at Las Pal mas. Canary Islands, we heard that two colliers had left for Rio de Oro, West Africa. We followed and sighted the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse within 20 miles of Rio de Oro, with colliers alongside. We opened flre at 3:10 o'clock and finished at 4:25. The Kaiser Wilhelm sank at 6:10. Our ship was struck ten times by shells." BRITAIN BACKS INQUIRY United States, However, Now Con sidered Out of Dum-Dnra Probe. LONDON, Sept. 17. In the House of Commons Francis Dyke Ackland, Par liamentary Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs, said the British government had no objection to an inquiry as to the alleged use of dum-dum bullets and to reported atrocities. The government would participate in such an inquiry, he said, but as to the suggestion that it should ask the United States to set up a committee of Inquiry, he considered that, In view of the reply reported to have been given by President Wilson to Germany, there was no use making proposals to the United States on the subject. AIRMEN'S DANGER IS LESS Austrian Field Kitchens Betray lo cation and Change Is Due. VENICE, Sept. 17, via Rome. An army order just issued in Vienna, ac cording to information received here, forbids Austrian troops to flre on aero planes for the reason that it is im possible to distinguish between their own and the enemy's aviators. An unexpected difficulty has arisen in connection with the feeding of the soldiers in the field. The smoke from the field kitchens betrays the locations of the troops and it is probable that the system of food supply will be changed. Golfers Aid Red Cross. WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.
