Macfarlane, 42 years old, manager of the Kendall Hotel, Lindell boulevard and Boyle avenue, killed him- self in the bathroom of his apartments on the third floor of the hotel at noon today by taking cyanide of potassium, which causes death almost instantly. Just before going to the bathroom he discussed financial difficulties with his wife and told her he was going to kill himself. She did not believe him. Suddenly she heard him call: “Helen, oh, Helen.” “I'm Going to Die.” She stepped to the door, and he held toward her a small white capsule, and said: „I've taken it now, and I'm going t die.” She called a doctor from across the street, but her husband was dead by the time the physician reached him. An involuntary petition in bankruptcy was filed against the hotel a week ago.

By Leased Wire From the New York Burean of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 2%.—At the takings of depositions in the James Campbell will contest today Monsignor James Connelly produced the original baptis- mal register of St. Patrick's Cathedrai showing that the date of Lois Ann Campbeil's baptism was March 24, 1893 This corrected an error in a copy of the record submitted by Monsignor Con- molly at yesterday’s hearing in which a clerical error made it appear the bap- tism was on March 4, 1892. Mrs. Annie Mahoney, one of Lois Campbell's sponsors, testified that she knew Mrs. Campbell before the birth of Lois and on the date of the birth of Lois was summoned to the Grand Union Hotel, where she found Mrs. Campbell in charge of a nurse and the infant, who was then two hours old. Mrs. Campbell had been taken sick on the street and was rushed to the hotel. The witness said she was related to Campbell, but was unable to state the éxact degree of relationship. She thought she was a third cousin. Mrs. Mahoney said she was present at the christening in St. Patrick’s Cathe- dral, 10 days later, and was the child’s godmother. On every visit to New York, Lois made it a point to see her, she eaid. Mrs. Mahoney’s brother, Henry Campbell, was the other sponsor for the child. On her cress-examination Mrs. Ma; Loney proved quick in her responses. the majority of which were that she could not recall the various incidents about which Attorney Ottofy was cu- rious, such as the shape and location the room, the number of windows, the appearance of the nurse, whether or not she was a Catholic or whether or not the doctor was in the room. She was a tart sort of a witness and especially when Ottofy wanted to know whether she had ever been befriended by the Campbells. Ihe said she had nat and thanked God she hadn't needed it, Mrs. Mahoney said she first met James Campbell when he was about 290 years old. Her own age she gave as about Mand then interpolated a state- ment that she would like to get away to buy her Thankegiving turkey. She said Mrs. Campbell had told her of having had a husband prior to her marriage to Campbell and presumed he was dead, but Mre. Campbell had not told her so as far as she could recall. She had quite a run in“ with Ottofy over the question of the religion of Mrs. Campbell's nurse. Ottofy was trying to that the nurse was a nun. but though Mrs. Mahoney did not say so ede ee yr DP ra she indicated this “ve is the octet tell nothing of the nurse's religion or her appearance, as ‘all nurses looked alike to her.“ William Nelson Cromwell was the third witness and confessed to being 0 vears old and a legal practitioner for 235 ) cars. years. His testimony was along the same line as that of the other business witnesses of yesterday and as emphat- ically, testified to Campbell's mental ca- racity—‘‘wonderfully lucid’’ was the ex- pression he used. His contact with Campbell during 1913, he said, was un- usually close because of tHe Frisco receivership, in which Cromwell repre- sented the French interest in the bank- rup* road. In his objection today Ottofy capacity was a matter for expert testi- mony. In the cross-examination, Cromwell, like yesterday's witnesses, said he had never noticed a depression of Camp- bell’s skull. Monsignor Lavelle, Vicar-General of the New York diocese and director of St. Patrick's Cathedral, identified the baptismal register of the Cathedral and a ‘copy of the record he had made for the case. He said if necessary the book could be sent to St. Louis. Objects to Prelate’s Testimony. Ottofy made his usual objection to Monsignor Lavelle's testimony that bap- tism was not an issue in the case and was no proof of parentage. The rule of the Catholic Church in baptism, he said, was to register the names of both par- ents where the child was legitimate, but otherwise only the name of the moth- er. At the opening of the hearing Attor- ney L. Frank Ottofy, representing the plaintiffs, renewed his objection of yer- terday to the entire proceedings on the ground that the notary had no authori- ty to take the depositions, This objection is based on Ottofy’s contention that the order under which the testimony is being taken was issued by the clerk of Judge Rassieur’s court, entirely without authority.

It is apparent that the Germans have been carefully pre- paring for this move for some days. The situation precludes the possibility of a secret attack and it is said the in- vaders have gone ahead with their plans quite openly, keeping secret only the point where they purposed centering their offensive movement. To Cencentrate at One Point. It is the opinion of military observ- ers here that the next onslaught will be particularly menacing, because tne Germans, profiting by the mistakes pre- viously made, will keep far enough away from the sea to avoid the naval guns, and will not waste their energy by advancing at several points at the same time, but will concentrate all their ef- forta on one spot where they hope to break through by sheer weight of num- bers. The Official Information Bureau to- day issued a statement saying that cer- tain detachments of the Indian troops in Flandert had gallantly retaken some trenches which the British lost yester- day. The Indlang captured three Ger- man officers and more than 100 men, together with one mortar and three machine guns. In reference to the bombardment of Zeebrugge, the Admiralty announces that on Monday all points of military significance in Zeebrugge were subjected to a severe bombardment by two Brit- ish battleships. The German opposition is described as feeble, and the Admir- alty says the extent of the damage done is unknown. The British ships returned safely. The Daily Mail's Rotterdam corre- spondent says: “Zeebrugge is burning, the Solvary works near the Bruges ship canal are a heap of ruins, and the sections of six submarine boats which had been brought there are reduced to twisted iron. A large quantity of stores also “The bombardment lasted from 2 o'clock until 5 o'clock Monday after- noon. The coast guard buliding and the public schools were destroyed.

THE HAGUE, Nov. 11.—A letter tell- ing of an attack by the German sub- marine, U-26, upon an unmentioned Brit- ish warship is published by The Zeit. It begins with preparations for the expe- dition two hours before midnight,“ in order to make a strike at dawn. The letter, said to have been written by a member of the crew of the attacking boat, follows: “Around the heavy granite rocks of the long pier, monstrously black in the dark night, the storm sweeps up the wa- ter of the North Sea in angry waves. Inside the pier the water lifts up our submarine jn the regular motion of heavy waves. Everything is pitch dark. The fact that many people are hurry- ing about on deck is only shown by the somber figures who now and then pass in front of the single lantern. From out of the engine room, already under wa- ter, there arises the sound of heavy pounding and the weird crackling of the engines which are being tried out. U-26 Gets Under Way. “At 10:3 there is a shrill whistle from the little bridge which stands high above the submarine and which is cov- ered with heavy canvas. The officer in command, dressed in his oll skins, gives the sign of departure. The cables loosened. A short, sharp signal to tae engine room, the sudden whirr as way. The sharp bow plows through the water. On both sides of the ship long waves are formed, shimmering with light foam in the blackness of the sea. We move in a westerly direction. We are going toward the enemy. The heav- ens are covered with clouds. Not a star is visible. A few feet away from the boat nothing is noticeable at all. The commander with his experienced eye tries in vain to penetrate through this wall of solid blackness. The wind is from aside and.the bridge is entirely No noise is heard, motor and the swish of the water pags- ing along our sides. “The earliest signe of dawn appear when suddenly in the near distance there is the sight of a heavy bulk swinging high above us upon the sur- the motor catches and the U-26 is under a pont. entrance through the combned bridge and conning tower is hermetically closed. The tanks are opened and the in-rushing waters tells us that the boat is about to submerge. The gasoline mo- tors stop their endless song. Electricity will drive us from now until we re- appear upon the water. “A young lieutenant is posted at the periscope and looks for the enemy. The sailors take their position near the tor- redoes. The interior of the boat is lighted with two small electric bulbs. They make the darkness visible, but give no light. Every here and there is u stale smell of oil. It is impossible to peak to each other with the noise of the engine and of the water. The heat in the small room is oppressive. From time to time the officer in com- mand of the three torpedoes looks at his watch or with his compass, both of which he carries around his wrist. In- tently the men all watch the sign. board on the wall in front of them.. The storm which is raging upon the surface makes itself felt in the depths. Every motion of the water causes the boat to rock up and down and up and down. First Torpedo Is Launched. “We think of the advantage of the man on board a warship. If his time comes he can go down with a last loo« at the happy sun and the blue sky. We see nething, hear nothing. If the boat is to go down we shall all suffo- ‘cate in the darkness under water. Sud- denly we all jump and forget heat an‘ bad air and discomfort. In small, light- ed letters the sign board says: ‘Atten- tion!’ The officer in command holds the lever which will release the first tor- pedo. The sailors make ready to launch the second one as soon as the first shal! have gone. A few seconds passing we must be very near the enemy. Sud- denly the first sign disappears; half a second later the red glowing letters say: ‘Fire!’ With a single jerk the lever releases the torpedo. A short metallic click, the noise of the water rushing into the empty tube and all is over. The second torpedo it at once pushed into the tube. A few seconds later and the interior of the submarine looks as before the attack began. But what of the first torpedo? Did she reach her goal? Instinctively we have all kept count—10 meters, 30 me- ters, 300-400. Under water no sound penetrates. We hear only the noise of our engines. We wait. Nothing han- pens, Then, suddenly, we are all thrown together by the jerky movement of the Twice or three times more we feel that we have Hanged our course very abruptly. “Then the boat rolls as before.

She had a little money and some of this was used by them for the hotel. During the past week, Mrs. Macfarlane said, her husband: had worried prac: ticaliy all of the time, and had slept very little.

PARIS, Nov. 24.—The General in com- mand of thé troops along the battle line of the allies between the Oise and the Somme assigned a staff officer, says a diapatch to the Havas Agency, to show 16 French newspaper writers something of the military ‘operations. When we approached the firing zone,“ says the dispatch, “we descended into the main trenches, connected by a sys- tem of cuts. We followed a big trench as it wound up a slope for two and a nalf miles, while the nolse of musketry came nearer and néarer. We were ex- changing our new and thrilling impres- sidns when our guide told us that we must be silent. »The enemy can hear us,’ he said. “We had arrived on the first firing line. The crashing voice of three-inch guns, which we had left behind as we advanced was now almost obliterated by the nearer and quicker staccato reports of the machine guns and rifies. At a distance of 100 yards was a gray wind- ing ridge of earth, the advance line of the enemy’s trenches. „Here, face to face and within rangé of each other’s forces, men were shoot- ing each other down pointblank, while from every ledge and every mound, covered with four inches of snow, un- seen batteries completed the turmoil of war. : Head Signal for Shots. Here and there a head arises cau- tiously above a white-erested trench. There are six quick shots and ‘then the head disappears as though swallowed | by a sea of snow. This is all the spéc- | tators see of the hundreds of thou- sands of men in the burrows who are ready to issue. forth at the slightest alarm. The vast chambers, roofed over with the branches of trees and with. stout wooden. pillars in front supporting sacks of earth, from shells and the weather. These are underground forts for modern. war- fare; with sanitary ditches, kitchens, mess and bunks for the riflemen await- tng their turn on the firing line. In front rises an ancient windmill, neutralized without the form of an armistice. Farther on the trenches are so near each other that the Germans and French exchange newspapers. General Won Strap. “Complicated barbed-wire detfenses protect the trenches here from surprise. At a converging point on one spot stands a building at the walls of which the enemies arrived at the same time, and a German rifieman, breaking a hole through a wall, thrust a bayonet under the nose of a French sentinel. This is the spot where the situation was critical for the French 10 days ago and where a...Brigadier-General in a brilliant action saved the day and galned the strap of a General command ing an army. “To the right and to the left, black clouds from bursting German shells are interspersed with chimney stacks, from which the smoké of industry curls up as in days of peace. Further down the line appear the crumbling ruins of Ar- ras, where the war has been more piti- less and where no industrial “building remains standing. At nightfall the humble village of Quésnoy, with its ruins standing like phantoms, marks the scene of a for- midable clash, Which will, make the place historic. The town now eis noth- ing but a heap of stones and smoking ruins, in the midst of which are seen the narrow trenches from which the Germans resisted tle onslaughts and which now contain thé heroic dead. “Twenty-five batteries played upon these trenches while 15 battalions, by echelons, (zig-zag formations) charged with bayonets to a mighty chorus of ‘Vive la France!’ Quesnoy Cost 8000 Lives “A formidable fusillade and machine gun fire stopped the onrush, but half the ground had been gained. The next day the batteries redpened and the in- fantry line charged again, this time carrying the trenchés and chasing the Germans from the position. Quesnoy had cost the French 2000 men, and the Germans lost 6000 men. “From Arras, where the German shells still rage, though little remains to be destroyed, to the Bassee Canal, a tug of war continues across the same dead ine as during the last three months. Over this line bullets whistle and shells screach unceasingly,. and dark clouds that mark the target of the German heavy artillery stand out in gruesome relief against a background of snow. “Here it becomes apparent that, though the trenches are close, the real zone of battalion action has a width of. from four to eight miles, the ais- placement of which easily. can be fol- lowed by the scars left everywhere by the great storm of shot and éhell.. „Abandoned trenches show the earlier fiuctuations in the line, While recent changes are dotted with a white blanket of snow and by the deep excavations made by the larger caliber shells.” . : Free Turkey Laach.

In a.similar way in October the German thrust at the Niemen was repulsed, and in Novem- ber that at Warsaw. Looking at the story of these three invasions,’ it seems clear that they have all ‘failed because, after con- siderable success and real progress, the Germans were unable to retain the advantage of superior numbers at the decisive point. As their armies proceedéd in Russian territory, Rus- sian armies before them regularly increased until no advantage in edulpment, in generaiship, in train- ing, could counterbalance the pon- derous bulk of the Slav, whose arm- ies presently became inexpungable in his front and began to overfiow his flanks: : Now Bernhardi, who is quotable on all oceasions and frequently is invalu- able, says in his book on German war-making that Napoleon, after having long and brilliantly defeated supérior with inferior armies, en- dea vored to enforce local victories when his numbers had begun to be inadequate for the purpose. This caused the ruin of his 1814 campaign. Russia Dominates War. Le at the eastern campaign, it is difficult not to feel that slowly but steadily the growing volume of Russian numbers is making all in- cidental victories insignificant in re- lation to the campaign. As far back as Sept. 1, Gen. von Hindenburg won at Tannenberg the most com- plete victory Burope had seen since Waterloo. A quarter of a mill Russians were captured or kill about twice the number Napoleon took to Beigium in 1815. But hardly a month later, new Russian masses ‘came’ back in East Prussia. More and more Russia holds the attention of the world in this great conflict, and rightly so. In the west the relative narrowness of the battle front, together with the topographi- cal circumstances, the mountains and rough country, have contributed to produce a deadlock. From Switzer- land to the North Sea between 4,000,- 000 and 5,000,000 men are facing each other on lines long held, and appar- ently to be broken only by § siege. German Effort at Maximum. Thanks to the inipetus of the origi- nal thrust, too, Germany still stands far within the territory. of her op- ponénts, and an invasion of the Rhineland from France or Bélgium still. remains the, remote dream of optimistic patriotic journals. For many months, it is reasonable to be- lieve, Beigium will remain in Ger- man hands, and it is even conceiv- able that Germany .may still make slight progréas. toward. the West. Qn the whole. however, it would seem that German military effort in the West is about at its maximum. A variety of circumstances combine to warrant the conclusion that the number now wearing the Kaiser's uniform in the West is not Mkely. to be largely increased, save from the eastern frontier, If there should be a decisive victory in this quarter. Such being the case, it is ot ut- most interest to note that in the Bast the German armies seem un- equay to their task, unequal in the sense that thay are too few to make victory decisive or carry a sudden and admirably planned invasion to its logical coriclusion. In sum, the German campaign in Poland more and more gives the impression of the magnificent: use of a few men to do the work of many. But gradually the success of the few is ‘circum- scribea. If the troops in the West are now unable to do more than maintain their linés, if ‘they are not in No- vember able to force a way throug: their opponents’ line, it. is plain that in February, when the bulk of Kitchener's million begins to reach France, all chance of this will be lost. But what of the general proe- pect of the war, if the German num- bers in the East are also showing a similar inability not only to defend thé frontier, but also to win a cam- paign, maintain an advantage, in Lostile territory? Heavy Drain on Germany. It is manifestly easy to talk about German exhaustion. Yet more and more evidence is accumulating which tends to prove that, in her first great effort. Germany éxpended - far more of her military resources than was supposed in the early days of the war. Thus, a correspondent writes to point out that five or six German battle flags captured by the French in late August or early Sep- tember, and photographed as they were taken to the Invalides in Paris, were Landwehr flage—that is, de- longed to the second line. A séc- ond letter today makes the same comment upon a banner belonging to the Anhalt-Dessau Regiment, Fourth Corps. But tf Germany put her landwehr. as well as her first line, into the Marne campaign in August, her re- sources in November are by just this much reduced. Taking these signs for what they may be worth, it is proper to emphasize the rapid growth of Russian strength in the East. German official reports themsetves are beginning to refer to failure of individual undertakings, because of Russian superiority of numbers, with some frequency. It is equally reasonable to conelude. then, as Berlin reports have suggest- ed, that the complete failure of the latest of Von ‘Hindenburg’s offen- sive, a failure by no means here yet, will be followed by the immedia- ate recession of the German line in the east. That the Russians beliéve it will mean the loss of East Prus- sia is plain from the fashion in whith they continue to force their iriva- sion there, for the moment subordi- nating their Galician campaign. Valine of East Prussia. — The loss of East Prussia, with West Prussia east of the Vistula, would be a disaster for Germany not to be compensated for by any pos- session of Belgium. East Prussia is in a very real sense one of the most loyal and valuable of old Pruésian lands; won from the Slavs by the Teutonic order. It is ineluded in the New Poland which Russia promises to create when victory comes. It 16 one of the greatest of the agricultural provinces and supplies some of the sturdiest of German recruits. It Was terribly ravaged in August. Redceu- pied, or even devastated. again by a Cossack conquest, it would become a liability to an empire now in a death grapple ‘with thrée atéat na- tions. | The moral . ofa Russian con- quest of East Prussia upon Berlin, upon Germany, would be difficult to exaggerate. In August the. Kaiser risked his Marne campaign to save his East Prussia, and lost along the Marne to win among the Masuriah lakes. A long series of allied vie- tories in the West would not néces- sarily bring French or British troops to German soil. Russian troops now are on German soil, and a dectaive repulse in Poland might cost the Kaiser East Prussia for all time. If the German armies have not yet reached their maximum, it is hardly to be questioned that they have néar- ly touched that point. Many observ- ers have already begun to believe they have passed it. In such a t- uation, failure in Poland, retreat in East Prussia and a deadlock in the West, with the additional fact that neither in the East nor the West have the allies touched their maxt- mum, there are circumstances grave enough to suggest that, at the least, a German recoil in the East and West may be at hand. — ——— ͥ́ —ᷣ—j— CARL STRAUSS IS MARRIED Man Shot ‘by Women Weds Miss Hannah Berger.

The “dirty” practice of kissing the baby was condemned and there was a murmur of assent from the women. Anyone would be justified, the doctor said, in resorting to assault and battery in. defending the baby from the kissers.

If the infant would not take it without sugar in it this showed that it did not want the water for the water's sake but for the sugar’s sake. Sugar was the most common cause of indiges- tion. Cereals should not be sweetened. If children did not get used to it they would not want it. “At what age should milk be stopped?” ‘There was no reason to stop ft at ‘all, but after the first year it should ndt be relied on as a substitute for other food because it was lacking in iron. After the second year the quantity of milk should not be greater than a quart a day. “What raw fruit should be fed to children?’ The doctor did not believe in anything but orange juice. Bananas would not do because good ones could not be obtained.

Judge Fisher in the Circuit Court yes- terday refused to gran} a divorce to Frank A. Steiner from his wife Illis because he did not think they had tried marriage long enough to know what they were doing. Steiner is proprietor ot a drug store at 3101 Arsenal street He testified that he was married Nov. 12 1918, and that his wife left him the following January. She did not defend | the suit and Steiner testified that for about one week all went well and that then his wife be- gan going to dance halls with other men. He said she returned from a visit te Minneapolis New Year’s eve and Re waited at Union Station to meet her while she left the train at Washington avenue and passed the night and part of the next day with a party of friends. The Judge told Steiner’s counsel he did not think the two had been mar- ried long enough to give a basis for i charges for divorce.

Scully launched his movement at last night’s meeting of the House of Dele- gates. He told other members that Kansas City had no private places and, that every street was open to the public. His suggestion met with many expres- sions of approval and it was decided to consult the Law Department to de- termine if the city. had power to tear down the no thoroughfare“ signs. Private thoroughfares are legally per- missible, and have the same sanction that a private walk in a back yard has, from which the property owner may exclude public traffic. If the city .de- sires to make any private property a public street it ma- do so by insti- tuting condemnation proceedings in the Circuit Court and paying for it by as- sessing benefits against property in a benefit. district and against the city treasury. + Many private . have, in the past, been voluntarily turned over to the city for public use. Last summer, the owners of Wagoner placd dedicated it as a public street. Director of Streets and Sewers Talbert has been negotiating with Robert Kei- ser, trustee for Westmoreland place, to have light traffic admitted to this pri- vate highway. Keiser has not yet de- cided. whether te reoommend this to the. owners, because a State law provides that any property used continually for 10 years or more as a public thorough- fare, becomes a public street. Vandeventer Place Oldest. Vandeventer place was established as a private place in 1870 under the will of Peter L. Van Deventer, which provided that its drives and walks should be re- served for the use of present and future occupants and proprietors of the lots in said Van Deventer place, but not for more public use.“ Westmoreland and Portland places were laid out as private thoroughfares in 1888 by the Forest Park Improvement Association, a corporation, with a pro- viso that its streets and walks should be maintained for the “exclusive use and benefit of the owners of lots in the sub- division.“ War.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2%.—A conspiracy somewhat similar to that which resulted in the murder of.Gambler Herman Ro- senthal was back of the assassination last night of Bernard Baff, a wealthy poultry, dealer, the police say. Baff was shot and killed by two men, who escaped in a waiting automobile. He was lured to his death by a decoy message brought to his place of busi- ess in Washington Market by a young man. The message gave false notice of an appointment he wag expecting. On -his way to the place named in the mes- sage he was shot down. The assassins fired but twice and fled. Detectives learned that Baff had been threatened many times with violent death since he testified for the State in a trial that sent members of New. York City’s Poultry Trust to prison several years ago. In the relentless campaign waged by his enemies, fires had been lighted, bombs exploded, his horses poi- soned, his son attacked and his chain of stores robbed.

FOE OF POULTRY TRUST IN| that the bulk of these decisive events outside of Durope are British victories Most people get very little thrill when they learn that a few hundred English- men with a machine-gun chased a few hundred Turks or Germans. or Africa" Savages out of some place with an un- pronouncable name, located in some country of which they never heard, We are scarcely to be blamed for our ig- norance of African and Asiatic geogra- phy. There hae been, hitherto, no rea- son why we should know anything about it. But the English achleved something really substantial yesterday when they drove the Turks out of Basra. Basra, with the district immediately around it. controla the head of the Persian Gulf. the navigation of the rivers Tigris and Buphrates, and the coast road down the valleys of those rivers into Persia and India. This is the logical spot for tha exit of the Bagdad Railway, and despite the diplomatic promises that that rat way will extend only to Bagdad, which is a good way from the coast, any Ger- man map printed in recent years (lik. the one sold ordinarily to schools) ex- tends the Bagdad Railway to Basra. A few hundred men, therefore, under the dommand Lrobably of some unknown of- ficer of very little rank, has taken pos- session for England of the head of the Persian Gulf, of its navigation and ita roads. They will, of course, proceed t fortify it. Guns will be sent them, amu within a few weeks nothing short of a considerable army will be able to take that post. That is a substantial result, which may in the long run be more sig- nificant than the whole . | thus far fought n, France. Leng Planning Shown. The English have also sent some gun- boats and some Indian troops to seize ports and islands at the entrance of the Persian Gulf. They have long known the exact points which they wished to control, and when the war broke out they immediately took measures to an- nex them, and those efforts have just been crowned with complete success. In the sted Sea there are a number of islands on the Arabian shore, and a good many points in Turkish posses- sions, upon which the English have had designs for a long time. The mouth of the Red Sea the English have long held, but there were a number of sub sidiary positions which might conceiv- ably possess importance, in case it were necessary to defend the Red Sea and close it. The English completed last week the seizure of these points. In West Africa, along the Gold Coast, you will see, if you look at the map, a ttle German colony, tucked in between the English and French colonies, called Togo Land. This very small district on the map was insignificant compared to the great extent of German South- west Africa, but its trade is valuable and it furnished the Germans a coal- ing station, a military station, a wire- less telegraph station, in a plade where the English and French found them ob- noxiéus. The war had not been in ex- istence but a few days when the En- glish took possession of Togo Land. In East Africa the Germans have a considerable colony, and with a great deal of energy they have extended its bounds to include many of the impor- tant strategic points in the lake region. Among other points they managed to get possession of the most convenient routes for the Cape-to-Cairo Railway, and have steadfastly declined to allow the English to complete that road. When the war broke out the English lost no time. Small parties proceeded to annex what England wanted most. Some British ships, and very small ones, too, bombarded and destroyed the chief German port, with its equipment of wireless, and in general drew the fangs from the Germans in East Africa.

When the Japanese 1 plete the seizure, they will not have done anything by any means as impor- tant for the eventual outcome of affairs in Asia as the troops did who captured the head of the Persian Gulf yesterday and who seized the points along the Red Sea last week. The object of this campaign, for it is a campaign di with as much pér- sistence and intelligence as a major operation in Europe, is to get into En- glish hands all the strategic places of Asia and Africa, in order to be able, in case of a German victory in Europe, to offer them the maximum opposition at vital points with a minimum of force, The English have a vast empire. on their hands to protect, and the army and the fleet are not adequate for its protection.

In the long run a German army victorious in Europe will make short work of the strategic points which England holds between Europe and India. But the English have to deal in the meantime with the Turk, and with internal troubles in the British domain, and they must be at the same time pre- pared to hold the military positions in the empire with absolutely the minimum of strength in order to send the effec- tive troops to fight the real battle for the empire in Burope, where alone it oan be wen end where signe 1 may be lost. The success of these operations, there- fore, will depend upon the promptitude with which they seite important points, the promptitude and efficiency with which they fortify and garrison them. This defense, they expect, will be en- tirely adequate to guard against a sur- prise, a swift invasion by the Turks, or a German detachment in the fields of Europe, and sufficient to maintain con- trol in case of internal revolutions. © Al) these apparently minor and insignificant movements are really a part of the great plan by which the Triple Entente hopes eventually to insure the victory. * ATTORNEY AND DAUGHTER SLAIN; HOME FIRED Bodies Found With Skulls Crushed in Ruins Near 18 years old, were found mur@ered early today, in the charred ruins of their country home near here.

It was probable that an increase in the tax rate would have to be made next year td pay the run- ning éxpenses’ of the city government, he said, and that a portion of the 14 cents would be absorbed in that in- crease. There was little prospect that the city could pay its share of the cost of the parkway by increased taxation during the next few years, ond the only way the money could be raised would be be bond issue, Player said. He added that he did not think the people would be willing to vote any more bonds for three or four years. Petitions Against Parkway. To a reporter the Comptroller saii the cost of the Mill Creek sewer, abort $3,000,000, would be assessed against the property owners in the district which would also be assessed for the parkway. If the parkway were to cost $15,000,000 or $20.000,000, the burden would be too great to put upon the property owners, ho said, and would result in virtual con- fiscation of their property.

Music lovers of St. Louis, who had planned for an active campaign to get ‘the additional money needed for the erection of a $350,000 opera house here, have decided to delay any unusual. ac- tion for a time, according to Edward A. Faust, chairman of the Executive Board of the Grand Opera Committee. Some of the members of the committee thought the great interest shown by the public in the season just closed made this a most opportune time to try to complete the fund toward which about $100,000 has now been subscribed in addition to the possibility of reviving the $60,000 offer made by the late Adol- phus Busch. Vice-Chairman Faust, however, said that a canvass of the situation showed that in view of the uncertainty regard- ing the effects of the war, the limited dealings in securities and the tightness of money the final move toward the completion of the opera house fund would be delayed at least until spring. The grand opera committee must de- pend entirely upon subscriptions for the building as it has no permanent fund at its disposal. It has not been the custom of the committee to at- tempt to seek any of the profits from successful seasons, but it has confined its efforts to guaranteeing the promot- ers of operas against loss and to arous- ing the interest of the tain aa No Profit for Comm On two occasions during 18 . sea - son, crowds were unable to get seats at the Odeon and the house was al- Ways packed in the evening. This led some followers of opera to suppose that the season would show a handsome profit for the committee, but members of the executive board. state that the eommittee will get nothing. No réport upon the financial outcome of the opera season is, as yet, obtain- able. During the last five years it has not been the custom of the men finan- clally interested in the opera to make the figures public. The only indica- tion that the seasons may have been profitable to the manager is the fact that.on no occasion have the guarantors been obliged to meet any deficit with the exception of one year. Upon that occasion, toward the close of the season, several of the committee members pur- chased $100 worth of tickets each to ward against, what seemed, a possible deficit. y Golterman, a member of the com- mittee, who has had control of the finances, says that he expects to make a report to the committee within a fe. days. Vice-chairman Faust when asked regarding the reputed financial suc- cess of the opera season, said: The opera committee has never in- terested itself in the financial affairs of the opera excepting that it stood ready to make good any loss. Golter- man has been a hardworking, success- ful manager and the committee is only too pleased if he gets a profit out of his work. I do not know what this sea- son will show, but I hope Golterman made money. I would be glad if the profit was $10,000. Public Must Be Aroused. “We have never considered the idea of seeking any profit to bulld up a fund that might go to help the succeeding season. We have always felt lucky not to be called upon to make a deficit good. Tom Randolph, a member of the Grand Opera Committee, gaid he did not believe there had been much profit on most of the seasons. “If the public becomes aroused to the desirability of a high-class opera sea- son, he added, and there appeared any prospect of large profits, it might be an excellént thing to consider the establishment. of some permanent fund. The idéa of such a fund might add to | the popular interest.”’ Golterman whén asked if he could es- timate the receipts and expenses for the season said that it has. not been the custom to make any statement. He said that he now has an auditor at work upon a report and that at the cdining meeting of the committee it will be for the members to decide if they wish the figures made public. When asked regarding the result of other seasons, he said: There have beer no profits to speak of. This year in addition to the original cost of the company we increased the orchestra and chorus, paid large sal- aries to several added stars and had other heavy expenses.

With the aid of two girl-artists of Precocious talent, the Apollo Club last night, at the Odeon, in its first concert of the season, offered a program fine ly in keeping with the traditions of the Organization's 21 years of earnest an“ devoted musical endeavor. The soloists were Miss Marie Caslova, St. Louls violinist, and Miss Frances Ingram, con- tralto of the Canadian Opera Company, who were engaged at the last moment to take the place of Miss Helen Stanley the soloist previously announced, who Was absent because of iliness. In the club’s first selection, Witt: Courage and Faith,“ by Meyerbeer-Sil- ver, it became more than ever certair that Conductor Charles Galloway, from his chorus of 70 male voices, had forged an instrument delicately responsive to the lightest flutter of his hand. Poetic Feeling in Interpretation. The Dance of the Gnomes,” by Mac- Dowell, was sung by the chorus with a full realization of its uncouth humor: and the other numbers, The Linden Tree, by Forschner; Reveries,“ by Storch, and Margarita,“ by Chadwick were interpreted with a poetic feeling and an exquisite shading of nuances which were astonishing in view of the fact that the Apollo Club is an associa- tion of amateurs. Miss Caslova, in her six numbers and two encores, displayed a fleetness of ngering and deftness in executing fly- ing arpeggios, and a surety and con- fidence remarkable in .a girl of 19 years. Few Years Should Add to Gifts. This young St. Louis violinist has ac- quired the technical basis for genuine virtuosity, and lacks now only the deepened emotional capacity and ricner tone-content which a few years should add to her gifts. Intensely emotional and dramatic was Miss Ingram, who possesses an opulent and finely trained contralto. In the aria, J'al perdu ma Eurydice,“ by Gluck, and in Salter’s Cry of Rachel,“ she might have been acting the parts on the operatic stage instead of singing in recital. In a lighter but charming vein, she sang such lyrics as Cottonet’s [ “Red, Red Rose, Macdowell's A Maid Sings Light,“ and Good-day, Susanne,” by Delibes.

Mrs. Katherine Clemmons Gould, who received $35,000 a year alimon um when she obtained a legal separation from her husband, Howard, in September, 1909, has hired a second set of lawyers to fight the suit on the ground that the Gould brothers are conspiring to eut her out of her dower rights. Tage and other facts came to light before Justice Newburger yesterday; when counsel for Mrs. Gould, asked for the authority to place before the jury certain questions considered pertinent to the issue. “This is a most peculiar case,” the attorney, A. J. Baldwin, told the Court, “Immediately after Howard Gould be- gan paying alimony he quit paying taxes on a highly valuable lot he long has owned at Seventy-third street and Fifth avenue. In this his wife held her dower equity, a one-third interest. : @ Lien sold by City. “After the taxes in arrears amounted to $54,609, Nov. 13, 1918, the city offered the lien for sale and it was bought by George Gould, who agreed to carry the property for one-fourth of 1 per cent.” “For how much?” inquired the Court .“Oneé-fourth of 1 per: cent, your hon- or,” replied Baldwin. “It usually is 10 or 12 per cent,“ com- mented the Justice. -_ „Woll,“ continued Baldwin, “Howard wouldn’t pay even one-fourth of 1 per cent. Six ‘weeks later he owed $17.82, and when -he declined to pay, George brought a suit to sell the prop- erty and collect his cash. If the prop- erty is sold, Mrs. Gould will lose a large part of her equity, for there is no telling how much it will bring.“ Mr. Baldwin said’ an examination hed been made before the trial and offered in evidence except from the testimony of George Gould. .Answering questions, m the witness admitted he had never . f you want health 5 1 | dunne@ his brother for the $17.82, but gone ahead with the foreclosure proceeding.

When the police broke into the house, which had been bolted and locked by Hill from the inside, they found Mrs. Sproles dead in a kitchen closet in which she had taken refuge and beside her the body of Hill.

The number runs into milliong Of Belgians alone there are several millions destitute of everything, dependent upon benevolence for daily bread to sustain life.

It would be a ‘demonstration and an examplé of practical phil- thropy. With only a small sum from each per- ‘son able to give the returns would be a notice- able contribution which would save many lives. Every dollar that can be raised is needed. The number of destitute is so great that a surplus is impossible. The sole problem is to obtain enough to ward off death for thousands.

Angling fortifies that patience of which most city dwellers have all too small a store. It is con- ducive to the development and practice of a kind- ly philosophy.

Whatever success Thomas Mott Osborne has fat Sing Sing—and he himself says that complete success does not seem possible under existing circumstances—he belongs to a type from which it is as refreshing as it is unusual to see a prison warden selected. The fact that he is a millionaire and 8 to preferment for the sake of its emoluments is but one of several facts removing the appoint- ment from any suspicion of having been dictated by ordinary political reasons. As chairman of the New York Commission on Prison Reform, he has already brought about improvements at the Auburn prison. He has devoted much time and money to philanthropy and social and political betterments. The mental attitude in which he enters on his new ‘work is encouraging. He has no illusions as to the nature of his problem. He says: The administration of its prisons has in Feneral in the past been deeply discreditable to New York. There has not only been the handicap of disgraceful physical conditions and inadequate legislation, but there has been too often a lack of plain and ordinary intelli- gence. The effect of this upon the human beings held as prisoners by the State has been most deplorable, resulting not only in unpar- donable injustice during imprisonment, but also in the yearly return to society of many hundreds of men less able to get along in the world than when they were first sen- tenced. Disgraceful physical conditions, injustice and cruelty to inmates, lack of ordinary intelligence ‘and a failure to equip offenders for a re-entry into society cause many other prisons to be “deep- ly discreditable” to the states in which they are located. To whom is the problem committed in those states? Not to an Osborne. Generally to some man of small capacity, selected, not because of ‘any qualifications for reclaiming delinquent humanity, but because of some cheap form of po- litical service rendered to the appointing power. = = rr THE FEARSOME SUBMARINE. This submarine is a more fearsome craft than we have supposed. Here a German undersea boat is rammed by a British cruiser off Scewiland. It makes its way to the surface in a damaged condi- | tion, after an hour or so and hoists the white flag. More than a score of its officers and crew are ‘resoued before it sinks. But. Berlin reports that it has lost no submarine. No craft of the U Is or any other type is missing. Were the ramming, the white flag and the rescue all an illusion which these formidable craft are capable of producing at will. Or did the British cruiser sink one of the submarines of its cwn navy? = ] r BRIDGE AS A BOULEVARD LINE. East St. Louis plans an extension of its new 20-mile boulevard to the point where the wagon approach to the east end of the free bridge reaches the street level at Tenth and Piggot streets. It will be fully completed by the time the bridge is ready for public use. East St. Louis is wise in taking advantage betimes of the service which the bridge will render to pleas- ure as well as business. This new drive- way will be thronged with St. Louis motor cars and other pleasure vehicles on holidays. It will add a valuable feature to the attractions of both communities. No doubt the access to the approach on the west side will some day be rendered more ade- quate and convenient by the improvement and re- arrangement of present narrow street spaces. The Central Parkway i§ needed as an important link toward the west from the bridge in the future system of boulevard communication on this side of the river. i i ~ BUSINESS ETHICS IN POLITICS. “The worst fault that can truthfully be charged against the politician,” says a new writer, “is the introduction of the ethics of private business into the public service.” Private business invaded the public service seeking profits." It has so far as it could sub- stituted the ethic of profits for the ethic M serv- ice. It used the politician to get infide the tem- ple, and to gain the privilege of setting up its booth for traffic there.

The more they are degraded, the more do they rouse their spirit to raise themselves again; and the whole affair will con~- stantly have to be begun over again.

E occupied a six-berth cabin in W the steerage of a Blue Star liner, swinging northward from Town on the road to London. The “we comprised three South Africans, an Italian, and two Australians, and of the latter I was the least important. My countryman, Healy, at one time Lieutenant in the Third Imperial Busn- men, attracted considerable attention. Headly came aboard a few minutes be- fore we steamed out of Table Bay, and the flat-topped mountain had hardly disappeared in the mist when the steer- ‘age passengers were aware of his vigor- ous personality. I liked his stories. They were pithy little stories—tabloids. Day after day, as we churned up towards the line, he put them forth, unceasing. He never mentioned the locale of a story, and when we asked he ignored our questions. His restless feet had trekked from Cape Town to Cairo and followed the breezes from the Indian Ocean overland till they reached the Atlantic. “There's Wade, he murmured, one ot day, as the liner bit through a stretch of gleaming, oily water, he was a snorter!

Next day Teneriffe came up out of the ocean, a line of small, fat clouds hang- ing like a necklace round its bare breast. The heat was stifling. We churned slowly along till we were abreast of the pink, chrome and pale blue splashes that mark Santa Cruz. We six from our cabin went ashore together, but in the confusion at the landing jetty we were separated from Healy, much to the delight of the Ita’. lan. Cruliekshank had lived for a time at Santa Cruz, and he piloted us, omit- ting the disused bullring and the ca- thedral towards which the jabbering guides were hurrying their captures. And Cruickshank did know the town. Near midnight we found Healy in a little wine bodega near the Plata. He was acting peculiar, but he was not drunk. Sometimes one gets intoxicated in tropical places without drinking to excess. We rambled through the vei- vety night, through the narrow streets where the faint tinkling of guitars camé to one like colored threads of sound twisted into the darkness. The angry Italian stalked in front; Healy was still resurrecting th horrors of the dark land that we had left behind. „Shut Up,“ I Cried. TUMBLING back to the jetty in S the early morning, the wanderer Was at my side. Night like this,“ he murmured, we struck that crowd with, old Gerlata “Oh, shut up,” I cried angrily. Eight horrors a day for two weeks had mv nerves in a bad state. “"T wasn't our fault,“ „the Shut up!“ I yelled. I pushed him towards Cruickshank, and walking swiftly, I overtook the Italian. The clattering winches were haulin up the last loads when we got aboard and tumbled lazily into our berths. Healy spoke like a man under the influ- ence of a drug, and I determined to speak to the purser on the following day. It must have been two hours later when I awoke. Healy was tapping me on the shoulder and pointing towards the porthole under which the Italian was slumbering peacefully, A big moon looked over the water line and threw a splash of silver light across the bes. What's up?“ I asked sleepily. Healy didn't answer. I rubbed my eyes and looked at him. He had his re- volver leveled at the porthole. “What is it?” I gasped. “There they are,“ he murmured. “They've thrown their guns away, but we don't want prisoners.“ “Lay down, you fool, I cried. 1 glanced again at the porthole; a piecé of repe hanging from the poop deck, swept backwards and forwards across the face of the moon. That's the second,” yelled Healy, firing as the rope drifted by. Cruickshank and I sprang at him, but he dodged and rushed up on the deck. firirig wildly as he ran. We were mov- ing, but the lights of Santa Cruz were still visible, and before we could inter- cept him he had sprung Overboard ‘and disappeared. After an hour of fruitless searching, we thought of the Italian, whose bulkv body was so close to the target at which the madman had fired. We rushed back to the cabin, but were reassured when we heard the heavy bass snore of the nervous one. The report of the revol- ver had not ‘awakened him. “No murders on his conscience,” mut- tered Cruickshank. “Come up on deck. I still seem to hear him telling his weird yarns.” (Copyright: Shortstory Pub. Co.)

After a long time I heard a noisé and someone was taking things off of me, and then I heard my little mother’s voice and heard her say: ‘You take my Drusilla right out this minute; she will smother in there with all those clothes on top of her.’ “Pretty soon I was uncovered and that nurse took me out.

Is Mr. Coolidge at home?“ “No. Who is this please?“ I an- swered, trembling so I could hardly stand. This is Hutchinson, at the office. Mr. Coolidge hasn’t shown up here this morning, and Mr. Flam thought he might be III.“ “No, I dont’ think so. He cften stays in town, and he did so last night,“, my voice steadying as I went on. „Do you know where he stayed? this Mrs. Coolidge?’ Wes, this is Mrs. Coolidge. No, Mr. Coolidge didn’t mention the hotel when he telephoned.”’ Again my knees shook. I must keep my wits about me if I were to be ques- tioned. So he telephoned you. What time?; I was sure someone was prompting Hutchinson. “Oh, I think it was about 10 o'clock,” carelessly as possible. “And you haven't since?“ No. Anything more, Mr. Hutchison?“ I had reached my limit. I felt that I should scream if he asked me another question. No. Sorry to trouble you. If you hear from him, tell him to call up the office.”’ The receiver fell from my hand. As it clattered against the wall it seemed as though the man talking at the other end must know that I had dropped it, unable to stand the strain any longer. I sank into a chair. It was coming. Nothing I could do would. ward it off much longer. Calling Norah, I told her I had a headache, and was going to Ne down, that I didn’t wish to be disturbed. I must be alone, must have time to pull myself together before the next act of my life’s drama commenced. „My Mind Was Chaos.“ ‘HAD not been long in my room be- 18 heard from him fore I again heard the telephone ringing. Quietly I opened the door and listened. “No, Mrs. Coolidge has gone out—to market, I think.“ Then after waiting a moment, Ves, sir, I' tell her, sir!“ How much did Norah know, or sus- pect? She had deliberately led. Why? had given no orders, save that I was not to be disturbed. I closed the door, and threw myself across the bed. I couldn't think. My mind was in chaos. Would they try to find Jack and bring him back? Would Ned Somers insist on locking him up? Were there others? At this thought I sat up in agony. Sup- pose there were many others? They would never let him get away. Then as the thought lingered, I could almost hear the newsboys crying: “Extra! All about the defaulter!’’ And burying my face in my hands I sobbed in an agony of grief that I pray may never again be mine. I heard the luncheon bell, and, bath- ing my face, I went down to the table. I must not be the first to let the world know of our disgrace. The children, thank God! were too young to sense what had happened. “Mr. Flam wants you to call him up on the telephone, ma’am,”’’ Norah said, not looking at me. I told him I would tell you.“ “Very well, I'll call him after lunch- eon,” with difficulty keeping my voice from trembling. After drinking a cup of tea, and forcing down a few. mouthfuls of food, I went to the phone. would like to speak to Mr. Flam, please“ when someone at the office an- swered my call. „Hold the wire!” a moment's respite. Hello!“ „yves, is this Mr. Flam?“ “Yes; what is it?” 1 thought 1 de- tected a note of anxiety in his voice. ‘This is Mrs. Coolidge. My maid said you wished to speak to me.“ “Oh, yes, Mra. Coolidge!

I’m afraid he will not come. ‘‘Why—what’—— I stumbled. „ Call Up Mr. Flam.” DON’T want to frighten you, Mrs. light that make me think Jack doesn't intend to come to the office. May I come out to see you if he doesn’t show up by 3 o' clock?“ “Certainly, Mr. Flam, but Jack’s sure to be in before that.“ “Thank you. Goodby’ until then,“ pay- Jack's return to the office. Again I sank into a chair to recover myself. So Mr. Flam, the man I had hated and (to be truthful) despised all these years, was coming to see me, to question me. I cannot dwell on the anguish of that afternoon. I knew I should soon hear — When Hyomei is Used for Head Colds, Oatarrh or Croup. When your head is all stuffed up. causing dull headaches, difficult breathing, constant sniffling, and you feel generally miserable, there is nothing quite equal to Hyomei to give quick, efficient and lasting benefit— yet perfectly harmless, inexpensive, and easily obtained at any drug store. To get safe, rapid and certain re- lief from catarrh or a cold it is most important that the medication goes directly to the sore and in- flamed tissue lining the air passages That’s the Hyomei method. Just put a few drops of antiseptic Hyo- mei in the inhaler that comes with every complete outfit, and breathe it—you will feel better at once. It clears the head, quickly relieves the tightness in the chest and that choked feeling — the disagreeable nasal discharges and dull headaches cease.

BY EYCHANGE RULING Reopening of Stock Exchange} Gener Next Saturday Causes Invest- ment Buying. New York Exchange Makes Rule on Bond Buying. NEW YORK, Nov. %.—Détails concerning the reopening of the Stock Exchange next Saturday, for restricted dealings in bonds, be- came known today. It is proposed to group the varſous issues under their proper classes, such as state, municipal, railroads, industrials and utilities. In each class a minimum price of 2 to 4, or possibly 5 points under July 30 prices will be fixed. There will be no quotations except for actual sales, thus doing away with all bid and asked prices. Official lists of transactions will be issued at frequent intervals under the su- pervision of the special committee of five. Arrangements to meet the new bond market were under way today. An enlarged space had been set aside on the trading floor and telephonic commrugication with bro- kerage offices was being restored. There will be every facility for the rapid transmission of busiress, but no public statement of their oper- ations. brokers will be requested to make le By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 2%.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view, today says: “Indications pointed to a successful resumption of bond trading on Saturday under the terms of the resolution adopted by the Stock Exchange Gov- ernors yesterday. “The news that the exchange would reopen for bond trading brought a good deal of business from out-of-town points to the large Wall street houses, which have done little or no business since August. There were indications of fair- ly good investment support. “If the trading on the floor equals the volume of business done by the nd houses at private sale, the dealings will be fairly impressive. There was a g inquiry today for the high-grade issues, and although the business did not come up to that often seen at this time of year, it was evident that a good many investors had been attracted by the news that the exchange would reopen for business, even on a limited scale. Apart from the interest taken in the announcement by intending purchasers, the move had a good sentimental effect upon the whole financial situation. There were many conjectures as to how soon it would be possible to reopen the ex- change for regular business in both stocks and bonds. These discussions were premature, however, although it is recognized that if the test arranged for experiment may be carried further, so that before many weeks it may be pos- sible for Wall street to do a full day’s business in the regular way. Interest in the reopening of the ex- change brought a good many inqutries from various cities, asking what the chances for full resumption were, and if just safeguards had n adopted to prevent foreign liquidation. on a large scale. These queries excited some amuse- ment, as it was taken for granted that the situation had been properly safe- guarded. No Poel to Be Formed. “It was evident, however, that there was no need of a money pool being formed to make advances to purchasors of bonds. The chief reason why this was not necessary was that the banks made large offerings of both call and time money, so that it was possible to obtain almost any loans today for 5 per cent. That rate was named for most of the accommodations applied for, and it was clear that the borrowers were at last getting the upper hand in the loan market. Not much money was offered here by out-of-town lenders, but such as was put out was at the low rate of the day. Nothing official was given out re- garding the action of the Clearing House Loan Committee, respecting the outstanding loan certificates, but the in- dications were that the committee here would soon follow the example of the committees at Chicago and Philadel- phia, in asking the banks to retire their certificates within a short time. “This action appears to be probable, in view of the very easy conditions pre- vailing in the money markét, and the new discount facilities provided by the Federal reserve banks. “Although the new regional banks have been in business only a few days. their influence has been pronounced. and the indications are that before long they will begin to do a large discount business. “Advices from Western markets indi- cated that the organization of the re- gional banks, especially those in the central reserve cities of New York, Chi- cago and St. Louis, had been helpful in enlarging the demand for high-grade commercial paper. Banks Buy Paper. that the possibility of being able to rediscount the paper whenever desired with the Federal-reserve banks, had been an imuortant factor in making the member banks buy more paper than they could be induced to pur- chase a short time ago. In some mar- kets the supply of high-grade paper was very limited, and it was evident that the buying of paper by the banks had depleted the supply. “Foreign exchange rates were eas- ier, and sight 3 on London was quoted about f-cent lower than yesterday, at 4.88%. It was evi- dent that a good deal of the buying esterday was by speculators, who ad looked for a sharp rise in London bills, to follow the action of the Stock Exchange governors, with respect to oe lg the Exchange for bond — ing “This view was based to some ex- tent on what happened last week, when it was supposed that the Ex- change would be 8 But noth- ing of the stren the exchange market shown then, was apparent today, and it was clear that the move by the Stock Exchange authorities really had little or no influence upon the exchange market. „Bankers were a good deal interested in the news that the Secretary of tho Treasury had not, as reported in some quarters, determined to readjust Gov- ernment balances in member banks 30 as to shift most of such deposits to in- stitutions at the South. ore in the area affected by the extraordinary conditions in the cotton et. “Not much heed was given to * rumors, for it was known that if Eastern banks were . ot their public deposits it be difficult for — to join a 000,000 under- cotton growers. — Gn os 8 the . ea Mayne hg ° 8 8 oan poo have fallen fiat been for the ine to he central reserve cities. | “Conditions in the steel trade are not OI Re WPL A al GR Sh 5 Hep PRS ae ‘inte the bond market proves satisfactory the] % — 2 —-— — — — —V—ͤ — — [SPA TC.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.—Although preliminary estimates of crop pro- duction this year indicate that the aggregate per-acre yields of all crops will be about 9.4 per cent larger than last year’s yield. and about 2.3 per cent larger than their 10-year average, be smaller by nearly 5 per cent than the 1912 record 24 crop yield. ac- cording to the Department of Agri- oy tare today.

The buying demand was scattered. Market news was mixed. Liverpool cables were unchanged early, JS. but sentiment was rather bearish abroad, as was shown by Broomhall’s official cable, which said: The L Liverpool market was dull and rather heavy, with offers larger on easy American cables and our estimate from Argentina. Market shows a waiting at- titude, with arrivals liberal. The as- suring reports from Argentina, quieter demand for millers and ample supplies for the present, with nearness of Ar- kentine exportation of new crop, is causing conservatism. Crop Expert B. W. Snow, in an Argen- tine crop review sent to A. C. Petri, representative of Bartlett-Frazier, said: “It is difficult to reconcile the Broom- hall statement that Argentine cables indicate a wheat surplus for export of about 120,000,000 bu, with his cable of same date saying climatic conditions generally not favorable for the best de- velopment of wheat and oats. The Argentine wheat acreage this year is officially reported at 15,474,000 acres. The average Argentine yield in recent years, including the phenomenal crop of 1907, has been only about 10 bu per acre, and around nine bu Is now a fair average yield, excluding the one big year referred to. ‘‘Advices so far this year show that the season has not been especially fa- vorable and complaints of too much rain in the northern district have been fre- quent, while frost damage is admitted in practically all reports during the past month. “Under such conditions a crop of around 150,000,000 seems about all that leaving 2 8 Of 75, 000, 000 to 80,000,000 bu for export. Last year’s crop was estimated at 198,000,000 bu by the Government and at about 166,000,000 by private authorities, but the exports have been only about 37,000,000 bu, giving conclusive evidence that the crop was overestimated by ev- eryone. “To furnish an export surplus of 120. 000,000 bu it would be necessary to raise practically 200,000,000 bu, and to do this would require a yield almost equal to that of 1907, when conditions were fa- vorable in every district, and at all times during the growth of the crop.“ Minneapolis wheat cars totaled 331. against 367 last week and 816 last year: Duluth, 320, against 352 and 446: Winni- peg, 561, against 304 and 848. Minneap- olis. wheat stocks increased 240,000 bu for five days De. closed dull, ed. Corn weak, %d to 1d lower. The Price Current grain reporter says: „Rains the forepart of last week re- lieved the drouth in the Eastern states. but the cold weather following so close- ly has not helped the wheat. The plant im that section is very late and very tender and a severe winter would cause great damage. In the Western statos and throughout the Illinois and Indiana wheat regions drouth prevails. In addi- tion the soft winter wheat states are increasing the reports of fly damage and the infestation appears to be very large. On the whole the condition of winter wheat is not up to the average at this season of the year.’ Broomhall cabled: “Many inquiries have come to us rela- tive to the size of the wheat crop in the Balkan States and the following is taken from our last Corn Trade News: Rumania, Bulgaria and Servia crops are estimated about 72,000,000 bu, against 132,000,000 last year and 168.000. 000 being the average yield for the past five vears. Exports last year were 128,000,000 bu and this year estimated available for export roundly 16,000,000 bu New York wired: “Relieve highest pre- mium has been paid on crop today.
