GREAT FEAR OF FAMINE
Deposits in Irish Banks Increase in
Face of Impending
Distress.

DUBLIN, Aug. -(Special)-Dictated by
fear Of famine. over the signature of p. A.
McHugh, NJ p, circular letter has been
sent to the clerks Of the poor law unions in
Connaught asking the following questions:
How will the rainfall and cold Of the sea-
son affect the crops in your union?
What is the view of your board as to the
probable yield Of this years potato crop?
How are the people OF your district situ-
ated in regard 10 fuel?
What suggestions would your board make
as to the steps that should be taken by the
Irish government TO cope with the wide
spread distress which is now believed to
be imminent
However. that all is not adversity-that
there is prosperity Is demonstrated by the
reports of the Munster and Leinster banks
Deposits for the June half year are S1.Z76.-
600 higher than they were a year ago; the
reserve has been increased by $4,000 In
the interval. and is now 10000 more than
the paid up capital, and Notwithstanding
that 81. $4,000 OF the increase in deposits has
been added to the liquid assets, the direc-
tors are in a position to increase their
dividend by per cent, to increase their ad-
dition to reserve and to carry forward
large balance A dividend of Is per cent,
especially where there Is evidence in the
accounts that the policy of the directors Is
strongly conservative-the liquid assets are
now 4s per cent Of the labilities-is regarded
as being decidedly satisfactory.

NEW SUBSTITUTE FOR RADIUM
Substance Discovered with Similar
Properties, but Much Less
Expensive.

PARIS Aug Special)-Molybdott,
the new radium, or radium for short
purses as it has been called, appears to
be a genuine discovery. NJ. Andre Ian
Glen, who found it, is medical student
at Rochefort. He says that he has been
studying photography for over two years.
In the course OF his experiments he COM
bined molybdenium and uranium by treat
ing nitrate of uranyl with molydate of
ammonia and obtained a white precipitate
which, being dried in vacuum, yielded
molydate Of uranyL This substance af-
fected Photographic sensitive plates and
has been named molybdott. Its radio
activity is very low, reaching a maximum
Of % as compared with that of radium
bromide OF 10000 On the other hand
the new substance appears to produce no
burning on the skin. and thus besides being
far less costly, offers a double advantage
over radium bromide in cases in which only
a low degree Of radio-sctivity is required.
The new compound has been tested on
rabbits and no Inflammation resulted An
other report from Rochefort says that
Molybdott is fully radioactive as
radium bromide but this is regarded as
extremely doubtful by scientists.

NEW YORK. Aug. 2-The remarkable
series Of crimes in this city in which

tack. shows no signs Of sbating. During
yesterday two such attacks were reported

Scarcely an arrest Of Importance has
beeen made and the police confess them
selves bafied. Detectives who have studied
the different cases differ as to the prob
able perpetrators. Some incline TO the be
lief that the assaults are the work Of one
man who has the mad animal instinct Of
the London and Berlin Ripper" Others
combat this theory and point to the widely
separated points at which the crimes oc-
Cured and the different methods with
which final murder was accomplished. No
one can explain. however. why there should
be such an epidemic OF hendish crime in
this city at this time--a crime the city is
generally free Of
The list OF victims who have met death
in this wave Of crime will reach FIVE, three
young girls and two women. A score or
more have been attacked.

COLONIAL SCANDAL IN SIGHT
Additional CONFIDENTIAL Information
Likely 90 BE DivuIEed I'm
Germany.

BERLIN. Aug. 3-CSpecial )-Colonisl af-
fairs in Germany really are the order Of
the day. Nothing Of the kind has been as
widely discussed in years as the trial Of
DR.. Peters. General Won Liebert. the
Colonial Hotspur, even went so far as to
declare in open court at Munich that the
findings Of the disciplinary tribunal. which
twelve years ago dismissed DR.. Peters
from the colonial service was "a dis
grace to the German people" The fact
that DR.. Peters won a libel suit in which
the defendant simply repeated the charges
brought against him is in fragrant con-
tradiction to the finding Of the disciplinary
court As one OF the results Of the already
long drawn out litigation growing out Of
the entire situation at Munich Il is
threatened that additional confidential
documents. which were laid before that
court be published so that a very
pre- ~ = 'al scandal is in sight.
" OF the entire AFFAIR appears
.cNSN~ for years it has been a matter
- -icsl passion. The social democrats
~ are opposed to German colonial policy
ant. DR.. Peters in the blackest colors. II
they are to be believed the Spanish con-
quisitadores were mild and gentle in
dividuals, when compared with the imperial
commssary OF the Kilmandajaro district Of
German. East Africa. The partisans of
colonial expansion. on the other hand.
represent him as the victim Of political
rancor, an energetic and conscientious Of
hcisl who has been the victim OF calumny.
As usual, the truth undoubtedly lies be-
tween the two extremes. Those who know
DR.. Peters best say that he is not the
monster Of cruelty. which he has been
pictured. and. on the other hand, he un-
doubtedly made many mistakes to say the
least, in dealing with the natives OF Africa.
He himself has said that one of the great
est diffculties that he has had to contend
with has been the want Of comprehension
Of the situation in the colonies on the part
OF the great mass OF his fellow country
men. The delicate point that the dis
ciplinary court had before II at the previous
trial of DR.. Peters was as TO whether he
had exceeded his powers and had treated
the natives with unnecessary harshness AS
he was dismissed from the colonial service
the court was evidently Of the opinion that
he had.
