& I -1& p& l^ EMERGENCY FUND VOTED IN COMMONS Half Billion Dollars Set Aside. VIRTUAL ULTIMATUM SENT TO GERMANY Great Britain Asks Satisfactory Reply Regarding Belgian Neutrality. HOUSE OF COMMONS UNANIMOUS. London, Aug. 5.The house of commons voted $525,000,000 for emergency purposes and passed several bills in five min utes without a dissenting voice. London, Aug. 5.Great Britain sent a practical ultimatum to Germany de manding a satisfactory reply on the subject of Belgian neutrality. Premier Asquith in the house of commons confirmed the sending to Germany of a request that she should give the same assurance of the neu trality of Belgium as France had done and that her reply should be sent to England at once. *A proclamation by King George commanding the mobilization of the British army was read from the steps of the Royal exchange. A huge crowd cheered and sang the British national anthem. Germany's reply to Sir Edward Grey's speech indicating the British attitude in regard to the violation of Belgian territoiy by Germany was a second ultimatum from Berlin to Brussels saying Germany was pre pared to carry through her plans by force of arms if necessary. The British government was official ly Informed by Belgium that German troops had invaded Belgium and that the violation of that country's neutral ity, which the British foreign secretary intimated must be followed by action on the part of the British, had be come an accomplished fact. What, the British admiralty intends to do is not ascertainable and no news is made public as to the move ments of British war vessels. That precautionary measures are being taken became known through a sug gestion issued by the admiralty to British ships bound for continental ports north of Callais. These were advised to divert their course to British ports. NO AMERICANS CAN LEAVE GERMANY NOW Washington, Aug. 5.No Americans can leave Germany for the present. Through the German embassy at New port the state department has been informed that during the progress of mobilization no foreigners will be per mitted to depart. The order applies to men, women and children, although its purpose is to prevent the flight from Germany of men eligible for military service under pretext of citizenship. The inclusion of women and chil dren in the decree is explained by the apprehension that valuable military information regarding the process of mobilization and especially the points of concentration of the German army forces might be conveyed to the en emy by women. IN DEFENSE OF HER HONOR Germany Ready to Fight the World, Kaiser Says. Berlin, Aug. S.-^Germany is pre pared to fight the entire world in de fense of her honor. Kaiser Wilhelm, in effect, so told the reichstag. He made no effort to conceal the gravity of the situation. But he placed the blame for the break squarely at the door of France and Russia.
