n. Y. CASH IS COMING
TOWARD THE INTERIOR
Movement of Money to Wall
Street Counteracted
by Outsiders.
CHICAGO BANKS GET GOLD
Portion Of Lusitania's Record Cargo
Is RENTED to Western
Banks.

New York, Nov. 8-Movements Of
money toward this city were counter
acted to some extent today by insistent
demands from the interior, but on the
favorable.
The Lusitania brought in more gold
that had been expected. $12,361,O 900 in
stead of 100000 reported to have
been shipped. Lazard Freres ex-
changed for gold certificates at the
subtreasury 100000 that the firm
quietly picked up in Mexico. The City
Bank secured s1,25O,O00 by engagement
abroad, 100000 being from the Ar
gentine. Heidelbach. Ickelheimer &
Co. engaged $1,2O0,0o0 in London and
some minor engagements We're re-
ported.
Altogether 1t is computed that more
than $46,oO0o 600, including that already
received, has been engaged abroad in
the last two weeks.
Only a portion of the calls from
the interior have been met in the last
week, but more than $11,000,000 has
been sent from this city to the in
! terror points on urgent requests from
western cities. These shipments will
undoubtedly be reflected in the bank
statement tomorrow, which is not ex-
pected to be as favorable as otherwise
would have been the case Today
alone there was transacted through the
| subtreasury to western points more
than $1,50O,OO0.
Record Gold Shipment.
OF the gold brought in by the Lusi-
tania something over $4,000. 900 was
consigned to the assistant treasurer OF
the United States. Most of this gold
had been imported by Chicago bankers
and the remainder by bankers in other
interior cities. The manner in which
it was consigned was unprecedented
and, according to subtreasury officials
will remain without parallel for many
years.
They did not stop to inquire FOL
what reason the gold was thus con
signed, but served notice that Their,
must be no repitetion of the incident
and then forwarded the gold or rattle
transferred it by telegraph to the rea
consigners.
Besides breaking the transatlanti
record in speed the Lusitanfa ais
knocked out all records as a gold car
rying craft. bringing in the unprece
denied amount OF So, 600, goo in bar an
coin. More than a quarter Of thi

the old experienced railroader, when
people aren't guided in their choice
of their seats by desire to get away
from the sun they are apt to think
of collisions and accidents, and their
first thought is not to be on the side
nearest the track for trains going
the ether way, so that if anything
happens on that track they won't get

Behind him lay the gray Azores,
Behind him the gates of Hercules,
Before him not the ghost Of shores,
Before him only shoreless seas,

My men grow ghastly wan and

The stout mate thought Of home; a
spray
Of salt wave washed his swathy
cheek.
what shall say, brave admiral, say,
Il we sight not but seas at dawn"
Why, you shall say at break of day,

They sailed and sailed as wind might
blow
Until at last the blanched mate
said:
"Why not even God would know
Should l and all my men fall dead
These very winds forget the way,
For God from these dead seas is
gone.
Now speak, brave admiral, speak
and say
He said. Sail on, sail on and on"
Then pale and worn, he kept his deck
And peered through darkness. All,

Of all dark nights! And then a speck
A light, a light, a light, a light!

= Hund1 eds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to-
bacco. The outside of the imitation
plugs of to bacco is fue cured the same
as Schnaplos, but the inside is filled
with cheap, fimsy, heavily sweetened
air cured tobacco. One chew of
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to-
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made so much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infring ements and in vio-
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these iniringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A

How Rock Salt is Mined.

The rock salt is quarried and car.
ried out in the form of rock salt. A
method of obtaining salt is by con.
veying water into large, excavated
salt chambers, and when 1t has be.
come impregnated, drawing 1t off and
and boiling it down.
This water attracts and dissolves
the saline matter, but, as water can
not SO affect the salty portion of the
rock, it leaves it often in most fan
tastic shapes, sometimes as pillars or
depending curtainlike sheets. These
chambers kept full of water are con-
stantly changing their level on the
withdrawal Of the liquid.
After two or three weeks two feet
of the roof will be found to have been
dissolved and two feet of debris
found upon the floor. Curiously
enough this debris in time acquires
the property of the salt rock.
There are chambers above cham
bers, some Of them 500 yards in cir
conference, and miles of galleries.
One OF these chambers, which was
Illuminated, showed floor. walls and
ceiling of pure rock salt, very lovely
In color, though not SO brilliant as in
the mine of Wieliczka, which is lik-
ened to four subterranean cities, one
below the other, hewn from rose col
ored rock. One of the party secured
from our guide red, yellow, blue and
purple specimens
The miners are obliged to divest
themselves of all clothing when at
their dangerous work, as any gar
ment will so absorb the salt as to be-
come hard and brittle, tearing the
skin painfully. They must be re-
Heved every few hours, and though
short lived they worked for a pit
lance which an American laborer

a big navy yard at Portsmouth, n. H,
and Charlestown, Mass.
While Congress is not likely to be
parsimonious in voting money to make
the maintenance of a big battleship
feet on the Pacific Ocean feasible, it is
very doubtful whether it will authorize
more warships, because of the decision
to keep a large fleet on both oceans.
The next session of Congress will very
probably authorize one additional war
ship. That is the present program. The
idea with the navy authorities of Con-
gress for the last two years has been
to. build one new warship annually.
That will keep the fleet well up to the
present standard and assure new ships
OF increased tonnage and gun power, as
fast as the old ships wear out. The
navy enthusiasts start an agitation
annually for something more than that,
but they will hardly have their wishes
granted The President would like to
build new warships a little faster than
that, but he reached an understanding
with the Navy Committee of Congress
over a year ago from which he prob
ably will not depart.
The new order of things means the
establishment of larger civilian forces
at Bremerton, Mare Island, Honolulu
and Cavite. Thousands of additional
machinists and skilled laborers of many
kinds will be indispensable for the exc
cution of the vast work. The cost of
repairs, coming from the ordinary wear
and tear, upon a modern warship is
enormous Perhaps some of the labor
ers can be transferred from Atlantic
Coast yards. But with the growth of
the navy, those yards along the At
lantic Coast will have a good quota of
work.
The change will also mean increasing
Importance of naval affairs TO the West
of the mainland. Hitherto the interest
in naval operations has been chiefly on
this side. The maneuvers of for
midable ships and of a force of, say,
10000 sailors from month to month
will focus the attention of the whole
country more and more upon the great
ocean between California and the

BOLLES AND BULGER
BACK FROM HONOLULU

SAN FRANCISCO, July 10-United
States Local Inspectors BoIIes and Bull
ger have returned from Honolulu
where they went to inspect the White
Star liner Kumeric, which arrived
there from the Azores with 1900 con-
tract laborers. On the voyage from
the Azores smallpox broke out on the
vessel, and upon arrival at Honolulu
she was put into quarantine. and the
inspectors expected to be delayed there
before being able to pass on her. In
spectOrs Bolles and Bulger cabled to
San Francisco, stating the facts and
asking for instructions.
They were told to go on with their
work and return. They were then vac
cinated and boarded the vessel and
passed her after inspection.
The Kumeric had sold 1850 tickets to
japanese for passages from Honolulu
to Victoria. The inspectors held that
1850 additional passengers would over
crowd the ship. and reduced the num-
Der TO 1900.
