Mrs. de Saulles testified that in early childhood she fell when playing in her home, striking her head ugainst:a fireplace. Next the de- fendant told of her meeting je Saulles at a race santiago, Chile, in 1911, of his sib- sequent visits to her mother’s home, Vina del Mar, ‘‘the vineyard by sea,’ near Santiago: of their brief courtship and marriage in December of the same vear in Paris. Mrs. de Saulles said she inherited securities worth $100,000 from her father, who died when she and that shortly after her mar- riage, she gave these to De Saulles. “What did he say to vou when vou wave him these securities?” asked Uterhart. “He said, “Why, that’s it’s absurd toecall vou an replied Mrs. de Saulles Identifies Revolver. The witness then told of her return to the United States with De and of his buying her ae revolver while they were residing at Larch- mont, N. Y. - She said her husband told her that since she would be alone at home a great part of the time, it would be best for her to have the re- volver for her protection. Mrs. de Saulles identified the weapon, the same one previously in- troduced as an exhibit by the prose- cution, as the revolver with which de Saulles was shot. Continuing her story, she said they next went to south Bethlehem, Pa., where her husband’s parents, Maj. and Mrs. Arthur B. de Saulles, resided. and where her son, John L. de Saulles Jr., was born on Christmas day. “Were vou happy there?” asked. “It wasn't very the answer, “Was your husband with vou there much of the time?’ asked Uterhart. “tle spent week-ends with us,” said Mrs. de Saulles.

He spent the anniversary more, quietivy than on former occasions. 20 of his closest friends called curing the day at his home in Fitith avenue to wish him ‘‘many happy returns.’ And he was showered with telegrams from all parts of the covn- trv, his old Pennsylvania co-workers being particularly generous. In the afternoon Carnegie took aé_e short his family.

The company first bent all ils energies toward insuring the adoption of either ordinance No. 1 or ordinance No. 2, and now is bending them toward the adop- tion of No. 2 as revised, although it professes to be dissatisfied with the slight revisions. The eritics of this ordinance offer various reasons fer their objections, and are not in agree- nent as to what the most ob- jectionable features are. To the writer it appears that the signifi- cance of certain features of the ordinance have either been over looked ‘or have not been suffi ciently appreciated or empha- most of its critics, and have been misseu alto- gether by those of its advocates who honestly believe the meas- ure to be a good one from the standpoint of the public. It is not surprising that the general public should be somewhat at sea in a matter which is so very technical; but it is to be regret- ted that certain editorial! writers and others whose advocacy the ordinance is presumably ¢ ty honest approval, should be so unanalytical as to fail to grasp eertain very important facts Both the critics and the ad- vocates of the ordinance seem to be agreed on one point, and that is, that the consideration of prime importance is the insuring in the future of service, both as to its quality and its extension. But many on both sides either neglect or disparage the impor- tance of the provisions bearing future capitali not believing to the namely, meantime sized by that thev ofr 7a present or zation,.. apparently that these are pertinent miain consideration, upon service. It is the purpose of the writer io confineszbimself to an analy - sis of ~_ or | provisions|for the ring of service, me * particularly to point out the rklationship between service and \present and future capitalization\as provided for in the ordinance. It is now a generally accepted principle that\a public utility corporation shuld be allowed only a certain limited rate of profit on its satlea’ investmenge, this being in distintion from the allowable profit froyi private terprise, which appears to be un limited. This rate crease with tine securit investment i‘nder proper co! ditions as to capitalization and to franchise provisions this security of investment in a large and growing citv should be al- most absolute, and the. allowa- ble rate of return should be correspond. Applying this rnodern principle to the case of the United Railways Co., it must be assumed that there isa certain valuation repregenting the actual investment of the company upon which the com- pany is entitled to a certain rate of return, and that any return above this amount is an excess to which it is not entitled. as I will now show in figures just what an excess of one million dollars or of five million dollars in the valuation of the com- pany’'s investment may mean to the riding public in service. It has been frequently stated, and probably the statement its true, that St. Louis has street car serv- ice which is as good as or better than that of the average Amer- lean city. This relativé quality of the service, however, has no bearing upon the question as to ~hether the service is as good as it is possible for it t6 be and vet { ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ¢ ¢ ( ¢ ( ( ( ¢ ( ( : ( ¢ ( ( ( | : qrailer cars. return on its true investment. The following figures will show the number and percentage of standing passengers leating the business district between 5 p. m. and 6 p. m. who could be fur- nished with seats by the appli- cation of the interest on $5.- 000,000 of excess capitalization, if there should be such an ex- cess, to the running of additional! Traffic counts made by one of the city departments show that on an average day of 1917, during the hour from 5 p. m,. to 6 p. in., 740 motor cars and 60 trailer cars left the downtown business district. The average seating capacity of the motor cars is about 53 and that of the trailer cars is 68. The orders of the State Public Service Commis- sion require that during this part of the day the company furnish 76 seats to every 100 passengers. The company claims that it is complying with these orders. In- sofar as I know no one outside of the company has done anything to verify this claim. In the ab- sence of evidence to the con- trary we will assume that out of each one hundred passengers leaving the business district dur- ing the hour between 5 p. m. and 6 p. m., 76 are seated and 24 are standing. Then we have Seated passengers business district between and 6 p. m.: In motor cars, 740x53-——39,220 In trailer cars, 60x68—-4080 Total seated passengers, 43,300 Standing passengers leaving business district between 5 p. m. and 6 p. m., 24-76x43,300—13.,- 67 4. Now, leaving 5 p. the of additional cars during the rush period is very much greater than the cost of operating addi- tional cars during the nonrush period. This is due to several causes which I will not go into here. A study of Doolittle's “Cost of Urban Transportation Service,”’ which is written from the standpoint of the operating companies and is accepted by them as standard, will show that a very liberal allowance for the cost of operating one additional! trailer car for an* average total time of about three hours a day during the rush periods, includ- ing charges for taxes and depre- ciation, but not including inter- est on investment, is about $9 per dav. This figure is proba- According to the cost operating ccessive, J ing advertmements of the company, their best trailer cars cost about $3000. Allo@ing $400 as the cost of additional equipment, hous- ing, etc., required on account of each new car, the new invest- ment per new trailer car would be $3400. Under proper condi- tions as to capitalization and under a properly drawn fran- chise, the company should be able to borrow money at 5 per cent. Then the yearly interest charges on account of each car would be 5 per cent of $3400. o $170. These additional cars would not be operated on Sun- days or holidays. The vearly operating expense per car would be about 310 multiplied by $9, or $2799. Adding $170 for in- terest charges, the total yearly expense becomes $2960, or, say about $3000. Now, if we as- sume that the company is en- titled to 6 per cent on its true investment, then the yearly in- terest on $5,000,000 of excess capitalization would be $300,000. This would be sufficient to pay for the operation of at least 100 additional trailer cars during the morning and evening rush periods. One hundred trailer cars would seat 6800 persons. It has been shown that (‘if the company is carrying out the or- ders of the State Public Service Commission) the number of standing passengers ieaving the downtown business district be- tween 5 p. m. and 6 p. m., on an average day of 1917, was about 13,670. The 100 additional trall- er cars would furnish seats for about 50 per cent of this num- ber. In other words, the interest charges on $5,000,000 of excess Continued on Page 4.

Schumann, who lives in an apart- ment at 355 North Boyle avenue, over the drug store, said two attempts had been made to break into his store at night recently and that for several nights he had been sleeping on a cot behind the prescription counter. This morning, after a street car passed, about 5:30, he heard someone at the front of the store, apparently beating on the window. The noise stopped, but after another car passed a half hour later he heard it again. He said he crept up behind the soda fountain and peering through a curtain saw the boys removing bro- ken glass from the window. He fired one shot. All three boys ran into the apartment house at 355 North Boyle and up the first flight of stairs. There the one who had been shot collapsed and rolled down the steps. He was dead when picked up. The other two boys fled. Mrs. H. F. Owens, also residing at 355 North Boyle avenue, told the po- lice she saw the negroes break the window. Schumann was not held by the police. SAFE-BLOWERS ROB VAULT OF CLEVELAND DEPARTMENT STORE Officials Report Between $5000 and $10,000 in Cash and $10,000 in Merchandise Gone. CLEVELAND, Nov. 26.—Three night watchmen were found bound and gagged in the vault of the Hig- bes Co. department store early this morning, where they had _. been locked by four safe blowers who broke into the strongbox and es- eaped. According to statements by offi- cials of the company, the safe blow- ers got between $5000 and $10,000 in ensh and $10,000 worth of merchan- dise, including jewelry and furs. The watchman said the men gained en- trance to the building hy posing as United States secret service men looking for German spies who were reported to have plotted to set fire to the building.

Section 22 Why the United Railways Bill Should Be Defeated Continued From Page One. ee ees — ~ a ee capi italization above the com- pany’s true investment would furnish seats to one-half of the standing passengers leaving the business district between 5 p. m. and 6 p. m. on an average day of 1917, and the interest charges on $10,000,000 of excess capitaliza- tion would furnish seats to all of them. As previously pointed out, this inc service would be relatively “‘expensive;’’ but that fact has no bearing on the ques- discussed. As to the practicability of operating these additional trailer cars, counts re- cently made by one of the city departments showed that during the hour between 5 p.m. and 6 Pp m. the average percentage of motor cars leaving the business district drawing trailer cars was about 8 per cent, or one in 12. This proportion varied on the different lines from one in four to none. This shows that there is plenty of room for additional trailer cars. Street congestion would, of course, be somewhat increased by the running of ad- tlitional trailer cars, but not nearly as much ag it would be increased by running the same number of additional motor cars. The above figures show clearly the relationship between excess capitalization and. service. Now, as to its relationship to new extensions. Under proper condi- tions the company should be aple to borrow money for new extensions at 5 per cent. The re- turn to the comnanyv on $5,000,- 000 of excess capitalization at 6 per cent would be $300,000 per year. This would pay the inter- est on $6,000,000 of new capital borrowed for extensions. A lib- eral allowance for the cost of a mile of double track in city streets is $80,000; then 75 miles of double track would cost $6,- 000,000. Therefore, the interest on $5,000,000 of excess capitali- zation would pay for the cost of 75 miles of double track exten- sions without equipment. In other words, this excess could be applied toward the building of 75 miles of double track into territory developed only suffi- ently to pay the cost of opera- tion and interest on equipment, or about forty miles into terrIl- tory now quite undeveloped. Having shown the relationship between capitalization and serv- ice, I will offer a brief analysis of revised ordinance No. 2 as to its provisions affecting service and present and future capitali- zation. In section 22 the initial capital value is fixed at $60,000,- 000. This valuation is not based upon a properly made inventory of the company’s property, but is purely a guess. A valuation made by the St. Louis Public Service Commission in 1912, only five years ago, found the com- pany’s investment to be worth about $37,000,000, or $23,000,000 less than the valuation written into this ordinance. Those re- sponsible for the present valua- tion claim to have used the por- tion of this former valuation which pertains to the physical property of the company as a basis for this figures; yet they add 62 per cent to that valua- tion. This guess may be a good one or it may bea bad one; but in a matter of such great im- portance and involving such vast amounts of money, it is astound- ing that any kind of a guess should receive consideration at the hands of men of affairs. says: “To capital reased tion being value shall be added from time to time * * * such portions of the cost of all additions, exten- sions, and improvements * * * as may be certified by said Board of Control as properly chargeable to capital value.” Sections 19 and 11 provide that the Board of Control] may re- quire the company to make im- to its properties and to make additions, “‘such as ad- ditional tracks, buildings, equip- ment, cars and other facilities,” and that the cost of such provements or additions shall be added to capital value. Section 13 provides that the Board of Control may require the com- pany to build extensions under certain conditions, the cost to be added to capital value. In rione of these sections nor in any other section relating to ad- ditions to capital value is any specific definition given as to what is meant by the term “properly chargeable to capital value.” Insofar as tne provisions of this ordinance go, there is nothing to prevent the Board of Control from certifying as addi- tions to capital value practically all of the company’s expendi- tures on plant and equipment, including large items which real- ly should be charged to mainten- ance renewals and depreciation. There is absolutely nothing in the ordinance providing that ad- ditions to capital value shail re- present only new capital actually brought in by the company from outside sources and invested in the porperty. So far as the pro- visions of this ordinance go ad- ditions to capital value may be paid for from operating revenue, that is, from money supplied by the public instead of by the com- pany. The company would re- ceive its 6 per cent on an invest- ment properly belonging to the public. This means that money may be diverted from the sup- plying of service or from any survlus in which the city might share to the boosting of the company’s capital value, upon which the company would re- ceive its 6 per cent, and for which the city must pay, if it ever exercises its privilege of taking over the property. As to deductions from capital value, a careful study of section 9, which deals with this matter, and of the other sections of the ordinance, will show that there is absolutely nothing compul- sory as to the deduction from captial value of the value of equipment, plant or other prop- erty which has been worn out, used up, destroyed or aban- doned. The only previsions are that when the Board of Control takes cognizance of the fact that tracks or other property should be removed, sold or dis- nosed of. the Board may order the disposal of such property and deduct its value from capi- tal value. In short, provements im- an examination of the ordinance will show that there is no limitation tsa the amourt to which capital value may grow and that there is no adequate assurance that capital value as defined in the ordi- nance and the purchase price to the city will not far outstrip the growth of the real value of the pronerty. And it will further show that there is no assur- ance that increases in capital value will not be partially de- rived from contributions. made oy the public instead of entire- ly from actual investments made by the company. Now, as to the provisions of the ordinance directly affecting service: An examination of sec- tions 7 and 8, relating to the powers and duties of the board of control, and of al] other sec- tions of the ordinance, will show that the city is given absolutely no voice in the regulation of gervice. The only powers con- ferred on the board of control are that it may require the coni- pany under certain conditions to build extensions or to make ad- ditions or improvements to its physical property and that it may certify to changes in capi- tal value. In matters of service or methods of operation it is given no authority whatsoever; nor is it given any contro! over the expenditures, borrowing, contracts or other financial op- erations of the company. Appar- ently it was the idea of the fram- ers of this ordinance that the regulation of service rests, un- der the law, with the State Pub- lic Service Commission. That is very true; but there is absolute- ly nothing in the law to prevent the city from entering into a contract with the company pro- viding that certain specitied au- thorities shail have control over the company's service and af- fairs to the extent that such “con- tro! does not conflict with the orders of the State Public Serv- ice Commission. In this respect, and only’ in this respect, ordi- nance No. 1, which was rejected by the aldermanic committee, was preferable to the ordinance | | beine discussed. It provided for control of service by the Board of Control. However, it had all of the faults of the latter ordi- nance as to capitalization and unlimited growth of capitaliza- tion, and many other faults which it is useless to discuss here. But its principal fault was this: that while it purported to be an ordinance drawn along lines of modern thought in fran- chise framing, it was actually so carelessly and inexpertly con- structed that the contravention of its ostensible purposes would have been an absolute certainty. Superficiality was :ts distinctive characteristic. Another matter which may have considerable bearing upon both future capitalization and service is the constitution of the board of control as provided for in the pending ordinance. The ordinance says, in section 7, that the city’s representative on the board of control shall be the Di- rector of Public Utilities or his authorized. representative. Later on this section says that “the appointment of the city’s member on said board shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Aldermen, and the city may at any time remove its member on said board of control and appoint a successo~.” Now, if the Director of Public Utill- ties is to be the city’s represen- tative on the board, as provid- d, how can the appointment be approved by the Board of Al- dermen, which has no power of approval over the appointment of the Director of Public Utili- ties? As to the appointment of the Director of Public Utilities on this board of control, would it not result in giving a strong political ‘flavor to the future re- lations between the city and the company? Would it not nec- essarily bring the company with both feet into the arena of mu- nicipal politics? The man hold- ing the important position of the city’s representative on such a board should be a man of great ability and of ample ex- perience. Is there any assur- ance under this ordinance that this place would always be filled by such a man? It should be possible to draw upon the best ability in the country for the filling of this important post, whether from inside the city or from elsewhere, and it should not be possible to turn it into just one more political job. The solution which the writer wishes to suggest is that the city’s rep- resentative in the control of trac- tion matters be appointed from time to time by a board of nom- ination created for the purpose and consisting of five members appointed for specified terms by different authorities, such as the State Public Service Com- mission, the Mayor, the Board of Aldermen, the Circuit Court, etc. The terms of the individ- ual members would expire in rotation from year to year, and the diversity of the sources of their appointments would pre- vent any political machine from getting control. The only func- tion of this board of nomina- tion would be to appoint or re- move the city’s traction super- visor, and it would serve with- out pay. Other provisions of this ordi- nance are open to criticism; but the writer will not deal with them here. Not wishing to be among those who criticise only, without offerirg any sugges- tions for a solution, the writer wishes to suggest the following plan. It is evident that if the pending ordinance is passed by the Board of Aldermen a great deal of dissatisfaction will re- sult. The city would probably be put to the expense of a refer- endum election If the ordi- nance were defeated in the elec- tion we would be left just where we are today. I wish to sug- gest that the various organiza- tions which have taken an in- terest in this matter appoint representatives to a conference, which conference would decide upon the basic principles of an acceptable plan of settlement and would then appoint a sub- committee tc draw up an ordi- nance based upon these princi- ples. The Board of Aldermen would be asked to defer action on the pending ordinance until this conference had arrived at some conclusion. Any plan of settlement involving a valuation of the company's investment should provide for a proper in- ventory by competent experts, and I would suggest that this valuation be made by a commis- sion consisting of one member appointed by the city, one mem- SS.

It was public acknowledgment that St. ders also cause more than usual need for contributions to help the needy within our own city. Good Times Don’t Mean Prosperity for All High wages and big labor demand mean nothing to the widow with little children and no wage earner in the family. The aged, infirm and sick are no better off when work is plentiful. The family which had barely enough to support itself before the high prices reduced the purchasing power of its small wages 1s surely not enjoying prosperous times. The poor mother who is sitting up late sewing that she may keep the little family together is not earning war wages, but she is paying war prices for what little she must buy. ? | What are the poor going to do for coal this winter?) They must pay for the little they burn as much—probably more— The St. Louis Provident Association is the “bie, kind father” to the City’s unfortunate.

The Provident Association not only supplies material aid to relieve immediate need, hut it goes beyond, ascertains the cause of the unfortunate’s condition, and seeks to overcome it, so that he may become self-supporting.

HIS'7 advertisement “ ° ° "T's raut'tor sete | time the call has come, St. Louis has answered by giving more than double of what was asked her. This is the kind of charity that counts The visitor called at a St. Louis home. She found a mother and four children in dire distress. The mother lay sick in bed with her ill and undernourished infant. There was no milk for the baby, no food for the children or parents. The father, ill and pronounced tubercular by the phy- sician, Was out trying to secure an odd day’s or even an hour’s work. He, too, should have been in bed. With both par- ents sick, the children undernourished and hungry, no income, and no relatives or friends to help them, their situation was pitiable. HOW IT HAPPENED l‘or years they had lived on a farm, honest and respected. He had served on the School Board of kis town. He was handy, knew several trades and was in- dustrious. But high water one year and drought the next had impoverished them. Believing that the city offered opportuni- ties and good wages, they had come to St. Louis. They did not prosper. The man was too ill to work. The mother gave birth to the baby and was too weak to rally. WHAT WAS DONE The immediate need was milk for the baby, nourishing food for all and living @xpenses. The visitor supplied these at once. If nothing more had been done, the family would unquestionably have re- mained dependent. More was done. As soon as the mother was well enough, she and the children were removed to the Provident’s Summer camp for sick women andchildren. The father was taken tothe hospital. He was pronounced not tuber- cular, but predisposed. He remained for several weeks and then left wonderfully improved. A job was secured for him in a near-by city. After a time the mother and children returned, greatly benefited by their rest, and a house was secured in the city where the father worked. The rent was paid for them and the moving expenses guaranteed. THE RESULT The father is earning $80 a month, the family is self-supporting and happy. The man’s own words are ‘‘The most helpful relicf was the ever-guiding and encourag- ing counsel of the Provident Associa- tion.’’ He has just paid back at his own initiative $5 on the rent advanced, and in- tends to repay all the rent and moving expenses. THE COST For the Material Relief—provisions, sick diet, milk, ice, fuel, car fare, rent, moving, clothing and shoes—the Provident spent for this family $43.89, 3 For the Relief in Service the total expense during the three months the family was under care was $9.90. This expense includes the time consumed by the visitor in visits, consultations, letters written, telephone callg and postage anid incidental expeuses., For the Institutional Relief at the Summer Camp the cost was $40. WHAT THIS TRUE STORY ILLUSTRATES. 1. It is better to assist the poor through an organization whose trained and sympathetic workers can devise and carry out plans for the family’s permanent betterment. 2. Relief in service costs less than material relief and yet accomplishes more lasting results. 3. The Provident Association needs more vis- itors in order to render more effectively for a larger number of families the kind of service illustrated in this story. 1. All families in distress should be referred to the Provident Association. It operates all the year around throughout the entire city with- out distinction of race, color, nationality or creed. 5. Efforts are made by the Provident toe hel families in a way that will not 4 th self-respect. Its records are confiden The name of the family in this story has been pur- posely omitted.

In the ‘old days a sea Captain greatly re- sented even the suggestion that -his vessel should carry lifeboats. It was /considered a reflection upon his sea- | manship or the worthiness of his iship. So the lifeboat made headway with difficulty. * At the period when these boats still | were an experiment, a remarkable feat of lifesaving was performed on the New Jersey coast at a point now | Ashbury | the precincts of Jose@h Francis, an inventor, within Park. had brought forth a device made of | iron and shaped like a boat, with a lid which could be shut, thus keeping out the water. Francis contended that in case of a shipwreck near shore a line could be made fast be- tween the vessel and the coast, and his quaint lifeboat hauled back and forth, carrying several persons on each trip. Francis was the butt of much hu- mor and his lifesaving boat, which was commonly called a kettle because | ‘of its odd shape, became a subject for general derision. Then a vessel (bearing the name of Ayrshire was ' wrecked in 1847 off the Jersey shore. | (It had a large passenger list, and much | more thana half century since | great loss of life ke@med inevitable. Francis rushed to the scene, got u line to thé ship and started his boat upon its first emergency test. Ho saved 201 lives by this method, many of which must have been lost other- wise, for the sea was so rough that no ordinary boat could have ever reached land from the wreck. In recognition of his skill and bravery, Congress presented Francis with the largest gold medal ever | given by that body. It was made of | pure gold, two-thirds of an ineh ' thick, and was of about the same size as a tea plate. The boat devised by ‘Francis might still be in use were it not for the breeches buoy. Be- cause of the boat's size, weight and general clumsiness it was difficult to handle. But it was none the less tractical and paved the way for the / breeches buoy, operated on the same rrinciple.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ST-DISPATCH DAILY RECORD OF MARKETS AND FINAN STEEL STOCKS LEAD A RALLY = IN WALL STREtI Gains on Industrial Shares Aver- age One Pomt; Rails Are Irregular. ail ¥y Teased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 26.——-The Even- ~-—Itig Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, says: “The really interesting part of the nefs, from the standpoint of invest- ment conditions and investment values, was not reflected at all on the Stock Exchange today—unless, tndeed, the absence of any moment in Ahe railway shares reflected inability to guess how the so-called freight- pooling plans would operate on earn- ings of individual companies. “The Washington dispatches, re- garding distribution of freight ac- cording to the facilities of the several trunk lines ata given moment, were "not clear in their particulars, While -the general purpose—-to avoid con- gestion and delay of traffic——was evi- dent-enough, it was not so easy to see how much diversion from one road to unother, of present or prospective earnings, would affect ultimate prof- ite. “Pursued on a large scale, the re- sult would apparently be that some railways would lose business which they might have done, though with delay, whereas other railways would get business which would otherwise not have come to them at all. But in the absence of details as to plan and .method, the changes could not well be measured, and today’s uncertain movement, in the shares of the com- panies which would be affected, probably indicated the' absence of » wlear inferences among investors. “Trading in all the railway shares was light; a fraction in the early hours, more or less recovery later. ‘Important items in the rs 4 of P% «, » * SH Ny STN hs oo. ee M - ‘ a with weekly statement of the Reserve Banks were | the heavy rediscounting by members, | of | of $130,000,000 paper the cancellation the Government's short term *fiequired by the banks as an incident | loan | of the preceding week’s war “payment, and the increase of 200,000 in Federal Reserve notes “aetual circulation. $43,- in “Tn spite of the fact that member | institutions took out last week $148,- | (00,000 in additional rediscounts, while the Reserve banks themselves hought $16,000,000 additional bills in the open market, reserves of mem- lrers at the central institutions ac- tually declined $54,000,000. This result; apparently, arose from the Reavy withdrawal of funds from depository banks: ment evidently being made to a con- siderable degree by members’ checks on the Reserve banks. The New York bank disbursed $112,300,000 to the allied Governments. Increase of $44,300,Q)0 in notes in circulation, and of $64,700,000 in the £ross amount outstanding, brought the net circulating notes, for the first time, up to more than a billion dollars, ““At the. New York bank alone the Bross increase was $28,300,000. the circulation represents merely an exchange of notes for gold.

Stocks and Vandergrift Bidg., Pitteburgh, ra character, as small receipts, the wide ' j}cash premiums over futures and good domestic and industrial demands in- dicate a strong position for the coarse grain. Oats were strong despite corn, but trade was small. Receipts are bare- ly sufficient to supply immediate do- mestic and export needs, and a large percentage of the crop is being used for feeding on the farms, owing to the late season for curing the corn crop. The Liverpool wheat market was dull and easier, with more liberal export offers and fair world’s ship- ments, with a larger percentage des- i | j | _tined to United Kingdom ports. Corn | 'was strong, with light clearances for the week and spot of- ‘fers small. Argentine news unfavor- able and holders very reserved, with |quality there better. Oats easier, increased arrivals and recent purchases large. Continental demand was good. In Argentina the wheat market closed Strong on Saturday. The fix- ing of reasonable exchange rates is regarded as bullish. Recent frost has caused severe damage. Our agent estimates the exportable surplus of |wheat at 133,000,000 bu, compared With 176,000,000 bu earlier estimated by the Government oats, 48,000.000 bu, against 77,000,000 bu, the original estimate of the Government.
