RESTORING OUR CREDIT
TIDE OF GOLD FROM ABROAD
WILL BE FORCED OUR WAY.
Runs Upon Banks Have Ceased and
Reports From All Over Country
Show Improvement.

New York.-The enormous influence
which American products are exerting
in building up a credit balance abroad
has been the most signal development
of the financial situation today. he
ports from all quarters show that the
great American staples-wheat, cotton,
copper, tobacco, oil, meat-are on their
way to Europe, this being the season or
the year when American products are
marketed abroad. The immediate ef-
fects of these shipments is to give the
United States credit abroad which can
be speedily converted into cash.
The shipment of tobacco to Europe
this year promises to break all records.
Officials of the American company estl-
mate today, with the orders on hand
that the years exports will exceed o.
600, 00O pounds of manufactured to-
bacco, which is far in excess OF the
amount exported last year. Europe
will pay over 800, 600, 900 for this to-
bacco, and much of this money will
soon be available in this market, as the
contract with the European importers
call for immediate payment on dellv-
cry.
Reports from the South show the cot
ton crop moving toward Europe, while
the West Is sending grain and meat
products in the same direction. The
fall shipments of American products,
chiefly agricultural, come at an oppor-
tune time in giving the large credits
abroad, making it difficult for the for
eign money markets to withhold gold.

SOUTH STRONG AS GIBRALTAR
Prosperity of Dixie Land Unaffected
by New York Furry.

New Orleans. La.-That the South is
financially safe and in position to bene-
fit greatly the other portions of the
United States was the opinion express
ed today by New Orleans bankers and
business men. The immense exports OF
cotton and also sugar and rice are re-
lied on to shortly bring in gold from
abroad.
An index of the South's prosperity
was the amount of shipping at this port
today. There were fifty sea-going YES
sells in the harbOr and in addition,
scores of river craft piled high with
sugar, molasses, cotton and rice. With
in the past twenty-four hours alone
twenty sea-going vessels have arrived.
Henry B. Schrieber, president Of the
New Orleans Board OF Trade, says in
an interview:
Conditions throughout the South as
reflected in the finances and commerce
of New Orleans are most encouraging.
The large movement of cotton through
the ports of New Orleans, Galveston,
Savannah, Wilmington and Norfolk
and large sales of other commodities to
foreign points are ~exerting a healthful
influence, and we are most sanguine as
to the showing the South will make in
the wear 1917

ITALY IS SHAKEN UP
NUMBER OF DEAD IN QUAKE is
NOT YET KNOWN.
PANIC PREVAILED EVERYWHERE.
Mutiny of Prisoners in Jail at Catan-
zaro Was Subdued Only with
Great Difficulty.

Rome, Oct. 25.-The details re-
the earthquake in Calabria WedneS-
day in every way tend TO show that
the damage done was much ore eX-
tensive than at first estimated, but that
the loss of life has not been great.
Nothing definite will be known
on the subject until the ruins are
cleared away.
The first shock fortunately brought
the entire population of the villages
into the open, many succeeding in
making their escape to the hills or
open plains, which accounts for the
smallness of the list of fatalities. TO
add to the desolation caused by the
earthquake, it was raining in torrents
Wednesday, which greatly increased
the suffering among the homeless peo-
pie.
Half the houses at Ferruzzano and
Brancaleone collapsed and many per-
sons were buried in the ruins, and at
Sinopoli and st. Ilario more lives are
said to have been lost. Panic pre-
vailed everywhere. Half the houses
of the village of Gerace are in ruins
and similar conditions prevail in a
number of other points in Calabria.
During the confusion caused by the
first earthquake, the prisoners n the
Jail at Catanzaro mutined and were
only subdued with great difficulty. The
female prisoners were particularly
alarmed, screaming, shouting and beat
ing the doors until the whole place
was in a terrible uproar. The prison
officials did everything possible TO
calm the inmates, but panic broke OUT
afresh every time another earth shock
was experienced.
At 6 o'clock Thursday evening about
two hundred bodies were taken from
earthquake ruins. 1t Is now estimated
that the deaths will surpass five hun
dred. but it is impossible to get ac-
curats information on this subject, as
many villages are still cut off by the
foods and the destruction of roads
and telegraph lines and no word from
them can be had.

TRIES 70 PROVE MURDER
RAZOR WITH WHICH MAY SAPP'S
THROAT WAS CUT is IN
EVIDENCE.
NEIGHBORS ON The STAND
Swear That If Miss Sapp Had Been
Meeting Anyone, They'd Have
Seen Her-Held in
$4,000 Bond.

lola, Kas.. Oct. 26.-Samuel T. Whit
low was held in $4,000 bail Friday for
trial for the murder of Miss May Sapp,
who was cut to death with a razor In
her fathers yard at Moran, kas.,
on Sept. 81, and who, Whitlow says,
committed suicide because of her in
fatuation for him. Whitlow was I'M
certain as to whether he would be
able to furnish the bond.
The prosecution introduced strong
evidence to show that Miss Sapp had
been murdered and proved that Whit
low attempted suicide soon after he
was arrested.
The prosecution began laying the
foundation TO disprove Whitlow'S story
of his meetings with Miss May Sapp
at her home at the preliminary hear
ing of Whitlow. Mr.. and Mrs. L..
Kline testified that they had never
seen any one lettering about the Sapp
home at night. They live across the
alley from the Sapp residence. they
said that during last summer they

night, often as late as IL o'clock. when
they could see almost the whole Sapp
premises.
The razor found in the Sapp yard
was introduced in evidence after OBJ
jections from counsel for the defense.
The attorneys for the defense are not
satisfied with the rulings Of Justice
Potter. In every instance but two
since the beginning of the hearing he
has ruled in favor of the prosecution.
There has been no evidence sub
mitted yet by the prosecution to show
Whitlow's connection with the razor.
Whitlow w:s even more cheerful
than usual when he came to the court
room Friday morning. He shook hands
with his acquaintances and talked OF
the fine rain" that was falling.
Mrs. Whitlow was at the hearing
again. She listened closely to every
witness and talked very little to her
father, G. w. Garner, who sat with
her. Only two other women, Mrs.
Kline and her daughter, were pres
ent. A heaVy ram HdS DeeH IdlIlu6

Another clew to the razor peddler
was received by c. J. Peterson, county
attorney. He got a telegram from a
woman living nea Tulsa, |. I. The
telegram simply said that the razor
peddler was there and admitted be-
ing in Allen county last summer This.
together with several other kilograms
of a similar nature from Oklahoma
towns, will be investigated at once.

FORTUNE AT STAKE.
Woman Racing Against Death From
Colorado to Philadelphia.

Colorado Springs, Colo.-A fortune
is at stake in a race against death which
Mrs. L. H. Willis, wife of an Ell Paso
county man, is making in the hope of
reaching her fathers bedside at Phila-
delphia before he breathes his last.
The aged mans reason has been de-
throned, and physicians are holding out
the hope that the sight of his daughter
may temporarily restore it, giving him
time to make a division of his property.
The dying man is H. N. Harris, a
wealthy man. Years ago, in a fight
with a negro in South Carolina, he re-
ceived q blow on the head which affect
ed his mind, and now, as death is APP
preaching, he has sunk into a stupor
and has not recognized those at his
bedside. Mrs. Willis is his ~favorite
heir and is rushing as fast as steam
will carry her in an effort to gladden.

FLAT RATE COMPROMISED.
Arkansas and Railroads Harmonic on
Cotton Shipments.

Little Rock, Ark, Oct. ga de-
cision has been reached in the cot
ton fat rate case, in which the rail-
roads, refusing to accept an order by
the railroad commission relative to a
fiat rate on uncompressed cotton, Sc
cured an injunction from Judge Van
d~eventer, at Denver, restraining the
commission from putting the rate into
effect on Oct. l. Under a compromise,
the railroads are allowed to charge
so cents per bale on all shipments
for a distance of Is miles or less, in
stead of 25 cents, as prescribed by
the commission. The railroads agree
to keep the concentration rate In
force, leaving the shipper the discre-
ton of it or the fiat rate. The in
junction has been dissolved.
