This shot was carefully aimed. not at the submerged body of a submarinc, but at the thin line of the periscope. The gunnery Was superbly accurate and shattered the periscope. Thereupon the submarine, now a blinded thing. rushed along under water in immin2nt danger of self-destruction from co)- lision with the cruisers above. ‘The sightiess submarine then was forced to come to the surface, where- upon the Birmingham's gunner fired the second shot Of the fight.

Although formal announcement has not been made of the fact, it is be- lieved, on good authority, that the Ital- lan Government has demanded an ex- planation from Austria of the bombard- ment of Antivari. Antivari is a Mon- tenegrin town, but it is inhabited large- ly by, Italians, and the Austrian shells wrecked the establishments there of the Puglia company, over which the Italian flag floats and which is filled with Itafian employes. Hints of Decided stand. The Tribuna, the recogn.zed Govern- ment organ, hints at a decided stand, saying that the Adriatic and. Mediter- ranean need watching, and that Italians today must prove themselves neither French, nglish nor _ Germans, but Italians. The Tribuna also publishes a report from Brindisi that the Montenegrin tréops, invited by Albanians, have occu- pied Scutari. The Mussulmen Albanians are sald to be tired of the attempts of Prince William of Wied to establish a government with an empty «treasury. Reports from Durazzo indicate that the Prinee’s situation is precarious. Prince William has absolutely no money and the miseries of the entire country have increased the popular resentment agains him. Price Limit Pat on Foods.

Hexamer of the German-American Alliance has re- quested state organizations of that body to adopt resolutions urging the Amer- ican press to print war news in an un- biased and impartial manner. A form of resolution was suggested as follows: “Whereas, The American nation is composed and has been breught to its present exalted position by the immi- grants from all parts of Burope; and, “Whereas, About one-fourth of the people of the United States are of Ger- man birth or ancestry, who have done mere than their fair share from early Colonial times until now in obtaining our liberty, in fighting for the Union, in upbullding the nation, in every de- velopment of commerce and industry and in furthering its cultural develop- ment; be it “Resolved, That we, as American citi- zens, insist that the American press shall present its information in an un- biased and impartial manner and that the editoriais shall, so far as possible, be without prejudice or hatred toward any & Ge rmany’s Plan of Quick Action | Has Had Serious Setback © the Freneh and German armies, that is, on the day When; gccording to mil- itary writers, beth nations should have practi¢ally all of their field forces at che frontier and prepared for offensive eperations, it is, per- haps, appropriate to examine briefly the situation as it has developed. Since the German Offensive is the really decisive element, such a sur- vey will naturally amount to a re- view of German operations, always’ with the fact in mind that the Ger- man necessity is to crush France be- fore Rosia is able to take the field.

They were in from of Liege on Tuesday. The obvious purpose of this invasion, as the German official statement has explained, was to seize the town by a coup de maln. The at- tempt failed, and German official re- ports de not claim that Germans en- tered the city until Friday night.

To understand the meaning of this it is n the object of the German which wap not to con- duct operations in Belgium, bu to open a way inte the Nerth of France beyond the barrier ford. The Germans were before Liege on Tuesday mofning; on Wednesday they should have been at Huy and on Thursday at Namur, if Liege had surreftdered promptly. Such a quick thrust, had it succeeded, would have given the Germans possession of Namur, befere the French could con- céivably havé reached that town. Had the German plan succeeded there, dy last Saturday the advance guard of the army of the Meuse would have been on either side of the Meuse above Na- mur, its right flank protected aginst Belgian er Dngtish attack by the forts of Liege, Huy and Namur. Its left wing would have been in contact with the German ‘army of the Moselle, whose advance guard occupied Luxemburg on the same day the army of the Meuse began to march toward Liege.

He did it, however, at the direct instance of the McCormick Harvesting Machine Co., but whether he was acting as principal or agent is left in some slight doubt. “On Jun 2%, 1902, Mr. Middlekauff went to NewYork with a letter from an of- ficer of the Mecbrmick company, au- thorizing him to assign hie option to J P. Morgan & Co., of which George W. Perkins was a member, or to any- one they might designate, and reciting that the option had been obtained ‘for us.” =. An Saw George W. Perkins. “On Aug. 11, 1992, a new contract was made for the purchase of the Milwau- kee Harvester plant by Mr.. Middle- kauft, and on the same day he-assigned his contract to Mr. William C. Lane, a New York banker, and then president of the Standard Trust Co. In July, 1902, thé representatives of the McCormick, Deering, Wardner, Bushnell and ‘Glessner and the Plano companies were all in New York, but stopping at different hotels, and not seeing one another. They were all see- ing, however, Mr: George W. Perkins. On July 28, 1902, they met and gave separate contracts to William C. Lane tO sell all their tangible property, and specified portions of their’ bills recefv- able. These agreements all contained a recital that the purchaser, upon his ac quisition of the property, intended to transfer the same. to a corporation to be organized under the laws of Illinois o' some of the states, called the Pur- chasing Company. It was in each case, except that of the Warder, Bushnell & Glessner Co., stipitiated that the entire purchase price be paid in fully paid, non-assessable stock of the purchasing company. Agreement Ia Signed. On Aug. II. 1902, the eompanies aii signed ah agreement for the immediatc delivery of their plants and property without waiting for any appralsement theretofore stipulated for in each stance. , ‘ “On Aug. 12, 1902, the very day of the organization of the International Har- vester Co. with a total capital of $120,- 009,000, Mr. Lane appeared before the beard of directors and offered to sell the Milwaukee Harvester Co. plant @ a going concern, including all its bills receivable, and the plants of the Mc- Cormick Harvesting Machine Co.; the Deering Harvester Co., the Plano Manu- facturing Co., and the Warder, Bushnell & Glessner Co., and t4 furnish $60,000,000 o? working capital to be represented by accounts and bills receivable of the Mc- Cormick Harvesting Machine Co., the Deering Harvester Co. and the Plano Manufacturing Co., or in cash, for 8120, 000,000 of the capital stock of the com- pany, and on Aug. 18, 1902, this proposi- tion. was accepted. The property turned in was of greater value than the stock issued for it. This case, therefore, in- volves no question of over-capitaliza- tion. “Th all Mr. Lane did in this matter, he was acting upon the suggestion of his counsel. He was compensated, but there never was any idea upon his part that he owned any ot the property. He Was a mere conduit, or instrumentality in the transaction.“ Later on the decision says: ‘'Th‘s court is clearly of the opinion that the process by which it was made to appear that the properties were sold to Lane were merely colorable.“ HE opinion recites that after the organization of the International Harvester Co. the combination acquired all the stock of the Milwaukee Har- the plant. It reduced the capital of the Milwaukee Harvester Co. to a mi- lion dollars, the Court said, and changed. the name to the Internationa] Harvester Co. of America, which was for a cons!4- erable time officered by officers of the International Harvester Co. A contra: t was made whereby the International Harvester Co. contracted to sell its en- tire output to the International Har- vester Co. of America, which under- took to resell the same. The Court declares that the selling company, 1: addition to buying the products of the manufacturing company, also bought from outside parties some threshers, Wagons, plows, ete., and resold them: but the dealing in all property not the product of the International company only amounts to about 2% per cent of its business. All the stock of the America company is still the property of the International company.

Osborne & Co. stock and the companies thus combined man- ‘| ufactured k still greater percentage of the harvesting machinery, used In the United. States and nearly the whole. of that exported. The decision continues: “The five companies except the Mu- waukee company all took stock in the new company, and with the exception of the Warder, Bushnéll & Glessner [Co. took stock for the entire amount turned over by them, and this amount- ed to $93,400,000 of the $120,000,000 capital of the new company; $6,600,000 of the capital of the new company was paid to J.

It fs claimed that this wab done to enable the Qs- borne concern to collect ſts bills re. ceivable which were not ascquired vy the International. There was commér- “lal advantage in claiming not to be associated with the Intertational. Many persons were opposed to buy! from it, and for two years ‘the Osborne. com.’ pany persistently advertised that it was independent. “While under the ol me fiw of warranty it might be jusfiflable for the’ Osborne company to conceal its rela- tions with the International, there can’ be no excuse fer the affirmation upon. its part that it was independent after it had been acquired by, the Interna- tional. ‘The seller may let the buyer cheat himself ad libitum, but must not 7 actively assist him in cheating himself.’ ‘The International had’ bought all tho stock of the Osborne company and it had been transferred to a ‘trustee, and there was in the fact that the Osborne company might better collect its bills re- ceivable no basis to justify the Inter- national in making a contract under which, the Osborne company would con- tinue to advertise falsely that it was an independent concern when it had in fact been merged with the International. ‘t ie safe to say that“ from January, 1903, the competition of the Osborne company was in name only, and did not exist in fact. N “What has been said of the Osborne purchase is true in principle of pur- chases made by the International of the Keystone company, the Minnie Harves- ter Co. and*the Aultman-Miller plant. “Prior to the consolidation the first five companies were in fierce competi- tion for trade, and especially was this true of the McCormick and Deering companies, and this competition extend- ea not only to price but to the granting of expert assistance, and numerous free items with machines. The result of the combination was that all this competi- tion at once wholly ceased, except with- in the limitation of agents’ commissions “The defendants claim that the ob- jects of the organization were: First, to build, up the foreign trade; second, by the combination to secure more capital te engble them to continue the battle in‘ the foreign market; third, by enlar the scope of the business 80 as to clude other lines of agricultural imple- ments to make an all-the-year-round business. They also claim that it was not the intention to oppress the domestic market, and that they . not done sh. se It does appear that since the combi- nation the foreign trade has been greatly increased. This trade of all the combining companies was $10,400,000 11. 1902, and has grown under the defend- ar.ts” management to $50,000,000 in 1912. This vast growth is to the credit of the energy and enterprise of the defend- ants. But the growth of the trade of te companies who formed the combina- tion was at the time of the consolida- tion very recent, and the trade was repidly increasing just prior to the com bination, With the knowledge that the foreign trade was making such a re- markable growth at the time of the consolidation, whether the separate com- panies would have increased their busi- ness as much as the defendants have done, ig. a mere matter of speculation on Business Was Extended.

A 10-year franchise to light the streets of Clayton was awarded last night to the Electric Co. ot Missouri, subsi- diary of the North American Co.. which sells Keokuk current in St. Louis Coun- ty, at prices averaging per cent higher than the bid submitted by the Western Power and Light Co., of Wells: ton, which sells coal-generated cur- rent. The franchise must be ratified by a majority vote of the public before it becomes valid. It was granted by a vote of 8 to 2 in the Board of Aldermen, only Aldermen Brennan and Dosenbath voting no. Alderman F. J. Hollocker, chairman of the Special Lighting Committee, which recommended the high-rate fran- chise of the water power concern over the low-rate contract offered by its coal power competitor, today said he be- lieved the North American subsidiary was charging too much under the cir- cumstances, but that he had been un- able to get a lower bid from them after many conferences on that point.

EL BASO Tex., Aug. 12—Following the eracuation of Mexico City by the Federals yesterday, Gen. Carranza has begun the work of perfecting his vil government, word has been received here. In addition to the appointment of Eduardo Hay to be Acting Secre- tary of War, it was reported officially today that Alberto J. Pani had been named Treasurer- General, and Gen. G. Gutierrez Governor of Michoacan State. Gutierrez is credited with having been the first leader to rise in arms against the Huerta Government. ! WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—The peace- ful transfer of the Government at Mex- ico City from the Carbajal administra- tion to the Constitutionalists began yes- terday, according to official advices to the State Department. The Federal troops evacuated the cap- ital, leaving the city in charge of mu- nicipal police, who, by agreement, were to be regarded as neutral. The Federals withdrew from the city to a nearby point, there to await an announcement of amnesty from Gen. Carranza. Should guarantees be refused, officials here do not doubt that a counter revolution will be set in motion immediately. With the entry of Constitutionalist forces in Mexico City the question of recognition for the new Government will confront Washington. There ‘is every reason to believe that this recognition will be. withheld until there is an elec- tion or political convention at which some expression of the attitude of the people toward the new Governmert can Disquieting advices again are coming from reliable sources that Gen. Villa will not march south with his men as ordered by Carranza, but will remain in the North and demand a convention of representatives of the army, as agreed to in the Torreon con- ference. Should this be refused by Car- ranza, a new revolution in the North would not be surprising to many high officials here. The attention of Secretary Bryan yes- terday was drawn by the Japanese Am- bassador to a report which had reached him to the effect that the honorary Jap anese Vice-Consul at Manzanillo, a Mex. ican. had been arrested by the Consti- tutionalists. a Bryan promised to look into the case and immediately sent a message of inquiry to American Consul Silliman. All Big U. S. Warships to Leave Vera ‘ Cruz by Sept, 1. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—All the big ships of the Atlantic battle fleet will be withdrawn from Vera Cruz and brought north by Sept. 1. Sec- retary Daniels announced today it was his intention to leave in Mexican waters only small craft capable of patrol duty, or which might neces- sarily be ordered across the gulf to Dominican or Hatian waters. It is the plan to have Rear Ad- miral Fletcher take command of the fleet at Hampton Roads about Sept. 1, in succession to Rear dmirazal Badger. who then retires. At .the Navy Department it was said tne movement of the ships had no con? nection with the European situation although some of them might be used in safe-guarding neutrality. “ACTOIDS” ACT ACTIVELY.

Hot Weather Health At this season of the year, when the appetite lags and you’re ‘‘all fagged out, it is not strange that you do not feel vou real self. Skipping from one light food to another, the stomach is rarely satisfied with whatever the pal- ate selects, and draughts of chilly” ce water often aid in retarding digestion to a point where food fails to nourish as it should.

And the efficiency of the human machine is highest when every * is attending to its own work. Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey keeps up the essential func- tions @f digestion by stimulating the mucous surface and little glands of the stomach to healthy action, thereby correcting faulty assimilation of food and thus the body is furnished pat proportion of nourishment.

PRESIDENT WILSON. “Ffortunately,” says the New York Herald, “we hav g at the head of the ent at this ¢criti- cal time a man in whose calmness and judgment i we have as great confidenee as we have in his pa- tri: étism.” ‘*Calmness and judgment.” Great words, ex- prpesing great qualities. In the terrible storm of wir that has burst over Europe, Americans have wow reason to admire the sense and sanity of ows chief magistrate. n the light of the world-wide catastrophe of the lot 10 days the most blatant jingo in the United to which a business may not independently grow, and even a combination of two or more businesses, if it does not unreasonably re- strain trade, is not illegal; but it fs the com- bination which wnreasonably restrains trade that is illegal, anf if the parties im contro- versy have 80 or 85 per cent of the American business and by the combination of the compa- _ nies all competition is eliminated between the constituent parte of the combination, then it is in restraint of trade within the meaning of N It is evident that the offemse of the Intern & tional Harvester Co. lies in the combination bt business concerns—at least two of which we) highly prosperous—centrolling 80 to 85 per ep At of the trade, for the purpose of restraining co m- petition. The restraint of cempetition amo hg themselves, which could not lawfully be acec ten- plished by agreement, constituted a violation of the first two sections of the Sherman act. It was not the manner of organization for e methods of the organtsation, but the, re straining combination of trade controlling tom- petitors which was the point of law violation. ‘The Court declares the capitalization ‘of the combined concerns is less than the value of the constituent businesses, and so: far from con- denninz the methods of the corporation ap- proves its treatment of smaller competitors as fair and just. In the light of this decision there shouMiPnot be further doubt as to what . 1 legal combination. . * W NOT McKELVEY, ME. MAYOR. The suggestion that Building Comms:tioner McKelvey be appointed Director of Public ‘fisfety under the new charter originates, we suppd ss. in the office of the Billboard Trust. At any rate, McKelvey is sharply and unpleasantly associ ated, in the public mind, with an inexcusable deli gy in enforcing the city’s law against that notpyious lawbreaker. = = * i i MINES ON THE HIGH SEAS. fs When the Amphion struck the floating mine placed in the North Sea by the Germans, not tony 180 British perished, but it is said that 20 Ger- man prisoners of war, captured a few hour gs be- fore, lost their lives. If this is true it shows the inhuman and generally blameworthy natwije of the practices of sowing the high seas witl} ex- plosives. ‘Those responsible for such an die- crtmtnate use of mines never know on whd/b the injory may fall. They themselves may : aiffer calamity or the shipping of a friend me y de harmed. Mines so placed are Tike the gun wich, prohibited by the Aw of most. eivil- ized countries, is as likely to kill the man :who set it as the marauder it was intended to 1 hit. A neutral Norwegian as well as the Britis’ g war ship has already been blown up. The natt one may be a German ship.’ This violation of the spirit of international law as a blockade ct the free pathway of the seas should have e: plicit definition in The Hague code. ~~ = = = — WHY JAPAN MAY TAKE A ‘Ham. It Japan decides to enter the war as Gern gany’s foe, it will be technically because Japan is En- gland’s ally, really because Japan thinks the occasion favorable to the~seizure of Gern niny's colony at Tsing-Tau, China, and the externer is- land possessions in the Pacific. The Japanese believe it is their country’s des- tiny to direct and exploit the industrial and! mili- tary development of Asia on modern lines. ‘They like to compare themselves, not without we mrant, to the English—like them an island pe ple, a seafaring people, a tough Northern bree @ apt in war, in manufacturing and in trade They believe their capital, Tokyo, now a city of nearly £,000,000 and rapidly growing, will ul mately dominate the financial affairs of the D un as London does those of the West.

It is very nice to prattle about “a vigorous for- bie policy,” but conscience and sincerity and in- ty have their places in government, despite the Metternich legends that still control Furo- pean chancellories. There was plenty of vigorous || foreign policy in BerMn, in Vienna and St. Peters- burg, but there was none of the good faith and common honesty that have shone through the diplomacy of Washington. In consequence all of Europe is directly or indirectly at war, and it fs only in the United States that the flame of civ- Uisation burns steadily and brightly. More than maps will be changed by this conflict, and we ourselves will be affected by it in respects that are neither financial nor commercial. New standards of statesmanship will be established in this country as the American people contemplate the terrible results of personal government and imperialistic ambitions abroad. To the historian of 50 years hence the fact that Woodrow Wilson was President in this crisis may seem no less providential than the fact that Abra- ham Lincoln was President when the very life of the Union was hanging in the balance. = * r FIGHTING SPIRIT SPREADS The psychologists’ explanation is that exciting events abroad are due to a martial spirit which, starting with the Balkan trouble, has been spread- ing until Austria, Germany, Montenegro, Servia, Portugal, Russia, Belgium, France, England and Japan have found it difficult to resist the influ- ence. The case of Mr. Jesse Klein seems to show that the ‘psychologists are not so far out of the way. He lives in Cannelton, W. Va. Hearing that Arthur Notter had been saying disrespectful things to his parents at Belleville, he bought a ticket for the IHinois town, found Mr. Notter, polished him off, paid a fine of $3 and $4 costs for the black eye with which Mr. Notter appeared in police court and bought a ticket back to Cannelton. His round trip involves more than a thousand miles of travel at the legal rate of fare for such dis- tance. - “But it’s worth the money,” says Jesse. If that is not the martial spirit, what fs it? Whether it is worth the money or not depends. Judging from what we know about West Virginia it seems to us that he could have been accommodated at « cheaper figure nearer home. — a Returns from the Ohio Republican primary indicate that Joe Foraker turned in a false alarm. — -—s = = = a ourT or HIS OLASS. England's poet laureate utters falsetto “Call to Arms:” Thou careless; awake; Thou peacemaker, fight. Stand, England, for honor, And God guard the right. The monarch ambition - Hath hafnessed his slaves, But the folk of the ocean Are free as the waves. Up, careless, awake; Ye peacemakers, fight. England, stand for honor, God defend the right. Shades of Byron, to what low levels has the imperial genius of England fallen! The laureate is plainly out of his class. He should be writing nursery songs. The lisping monarch that ignored him may well and soberly turn now to Kfpling, and chant with that great bard: The sinner that foreswore Thee, The fool that passed Thee by, Our times are known before Thee— 5 grant us strength to die! 2 4 * INHERITANCE TAX FEES. — ~ / this faint, ~~ = = i ii inheritance taxes have been fixed in St. Louis subjects the statute regulating the matter te strange constructions. A suit to determine the legality of the $20,000 already allowed in excess of fees is needed to determine whether the statute has any authority at all as a guide or whether the compensation is wholly within the discretion of the Probate Court. If the past interpretation of the law is cor- rect, then any fanciful interpretation ought to pass muster. Collection at the rate giving the present $20,000 excess may seem modest com- pared with the rates for future collections. A refund of the excess should be forced if it is possible to force it. depending on Germany for many products could be made here.

Cutting Down the Talk. In Paris no language except French can be used over the telephone. This is a war measure, necessary no doubt, but irksome it must be to those who speak only French as she is taught by correspondence. Naturally this language will not be recognized by Parisian tele- phone censors and those who use it will be under suspicion as foreign spies. What a calamity it would be if only Ynglish could be used in talking over the telephone in St. Louis.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, says: ‘ markets converged again on the problem of breaking the deadlock’ of internation- al exchange. Some progress undoubted- ly was made, both by the operation of the gold fund established at Paris to facilitate drafts, and by the decision to to the credit of the London banks, of the $5,000,000 gold late- ly consigned to London on the Kron- prinseasin Cecilie, but returned to New ork City. “The wheat market, however, lost 2 cents again—a result of the prevalent doubt as to how the larger problems of international exchange will be solved. The Bank of England gained $2,700,- 000 more gold today; mostly New York consignments. It has now added. $16,- 800,000 to its gold reserve since the week hat the Iron Age’s industry's utter perplexity as to whether the war will elp or hurt it, and the violent rise in the price of foreign raw material. May Send Gold to Canada. “The problem of financing exchange of merchandise between the nited States and England, seemed again to stick today on the question of our sending gold to Ottawa in settlement of existing London balances against ‘ourselves; Lombard street to make the London payments against this gold deposit. “Two opposite opinions have de- fin themselves, in the New York banking district. One holds that we cannot be expected to part with any of oun gold, when conditions in home and foreign finance are what the are. It further holds that -the Bank of England can, if it sees “At. rec- ognize a credit established in this city, against which London m drew for settlement of American ‘abit. ties maturing on Lombard street. “The other opinion holds that, ingo- far as our present immediate liabili- ties in London (such are not directly affected by that market’s morato- rium) exceed our maturing London credits, it is the duty and to the high economic interest of our own market to pay its bills.

This much, however,” may be said at once. We are either standing up. in this coun- try, without Burope’s recourse to 4&4 moratorium on our debts, or we are not. If we are not, and if evidence is clearly resented that settlement of our own ndon maturities (not covered by the English moratorium) requires gold ship- ments, then the proposa] for such remit- tances to Canada ought to be accepted. „If we are ourselves on a basis of sus- pended payments then we may as well say 80. Gold May Be Heid. “To give up part of our gold at the present time, even to Canada, is an un- doubted hardship. To give up any such amount as we sent abroad last month would probably be impossible. But it is highly unlikely, with our wheat certain to move in quantity to England, when once the embargo on exchange is broken, that any very extensive consignments of the sort would be necessitat That nt ought to be made reasonably clear fo d; also, it ought to be most distinctly understood that Whenever ag- ricultural exports presently reverse the balance of ternational indebtedness, the gold from Ottawa will be sent back, |g; and further drafts by us, on the Canadi- an supply will be permitted. „Based on such understanding, the est tablishment in omer of 9 eig 7 fund which the Bank of England proposes, would not only solve the immediate problem of international exchange, but would place our market on a pinnacle of rsolvency and credit, in the midst of this world-wide financial storm, which would ingure the future position of New York as a financial world center, not only after the war is over, but while it ts be- ing fought, and while European capital is seeking a place of safety.
