"SrocKHoLM, February II, 1916.
at is now feared that the h~oped-for exemption Of
Sweden from the famine that is s%courging northern
Europe will not be realized. Around Stockholm,
indeed, and in southern Sweden, there is at present
no great scarcity of provision; bnt during the past
two weeks sad accounts have reached the government
of great distress in the northern provinces. This
will occasion, however, no abatement OF the tariff
upon foreign grain 1t is probable, however, In con-
sequence of the high price of flour that a few cargoes

FROM THE BLACK SEA.-Extract from a despatch,
under date of January /, J 1916, received at the De-
partment of State, from the United States Consulate
at Odessa
1.-THE weather here has been remarkably fine and
dry for some time past, and, until the present moment,
very little frost, and as yet no snow, neither here nor
in the immediate neighborhood, which is absolutely
necessary for the security Of the next crop. FreightS
have been considerably elevated for some time past,
in consequence of the scarcity of shipping, and the
late demand for grain from Holland, Belgium and the
ports of the Mediterranean. The number of ships of
different flags which have entered these ports in the
course of last year amounts to 1902. and the depart
ures to 1871; leaving in port only IL sail. The
quantity Of grain now on hand amounts to about So4 m
chet, goo Chef being equal to 74l quarters English,)
the price Of which was, but a few weeks back. as
high as 81 "a rouble, equal to IA cents) per Chef
but has lately receded to the present quotation for
want of demand from abroad
Extract from a despatch, under date of Constanti-
nople, February, Z, 1916, received at the Department
of State
"The inhabitants of the European and Asiatic
provinces are suffering greatly from the want of grain.
Its expectation from any part of the empire, until
next harvest, has been strictly prohibited and that
which yet remains in South Russia, (where the crops
have also failed for want of rain,) is greatly increased
in value, and boarded up with a hope of advanced
the corn laws

A QUESTION FOR THE OPPosERs OF THE LICENSE

perfectly into the position of representatives of the
people. The plan generally proposed, is elections for

solved on Monday evening, that one third of their ell
ders and deacons should go out of office directly, and
hereafter a third should go out of Office every two
years, and new elections made to fill their places. The
nominations for new elections arc to be made by Joint
committee, one-half to he appointed by the church,
and the other half blythe session the late incumbents
being ineIigible.-N. Y. Journal Of Commerce.
