TWO MET INJURY
Mr.. and Mrs. Burg Suffer
from Collision with Eliza
beth Street Car.
WERE THROWN FROM BUGGY

Mr.. and Mrs. August Burg of the
town of Pleasant Prairie, were badly
shaken up and badly bruised just af-
ter ten clock Sunday morning when
the buggy in which they were riding
was struck by car on the lines of
the Kenosha Electric Railway Com
pany at the corner of Elizabeth and
Grover streets. Mr.. and Mrs. Burg
were riding in top buggy with the
curtains on. Both the man and WON
an are troubled with deafness and on
account of the curtains they failed TO
see the approaching car. Motorman
Schlenker, who was IN charge of the
car, attempted to stop it, but could
not bring it to a full stop and it
struck the buggy with such a force
that both Mr.. and Mrs. Burg were
thrown out.
The buggy was not badly damaged
and the horse did not run away, but
Mr.. and Mrs. Burg fell on the pave
ment and were badly bruised. AS
soon as possible they were taken to
their home in Pleasant Prairie and it
is declared today that their injuries
are not of a serious nature.
Had the car been running at a high
rate of speed the accident would IN
doubleday have been most serious
one as the buggy was in the very
center Of the car track when the col
ision took place. Passengers on the
car seem to be unanimous in TIE
opinion that the accident could not
have been averted.

The usual cutting ARRAY came right
along on schedule time Saturday even
ing and it is only luck that there is
not murder trial slated for the cir
cult court as result. There are too
many people in this town altogether
too ready to use a deadly weapon
every time they get into quarrel
and some way will have to be found
to deal with them. 1t has been sug-
gested that every case of carrying
concealed weapon of any kind be given
a Jail sentence without the alternative
of fine and it might be good plan
to give this trial. Five and costs
does not seem to be effective as a de-
torrent.

The merchants and business men of
the city are as rule very well salts
fed with the holiday trade this year
and they have every reason to be.
The continual hammering away on the
"shop early theme had its effect and
1t is not probable that there were any
record breaking days but the average
of all days was better and the totals
of the month viii show as large or
larger than those OF last year which
considering conditions this year is all
that could have been expected and
more.

Our imports from South America
amount roughly to two hundred mil
lion dollars year-largelv coffee and
raw materials for use in manufactures.
Advocates of ship subsidy point out
that most of this trade is carried in
foreign bottoms, paying freight to
Europe; but almost all of it pays an
other toll to Europe that could be
avoided without granting anybody
bounty from the national treasury.
The credit instrument by which, no
less than by ships, this trade is moved
must be obtained in London. Our
banks actually have the credit neces-
sary to move our foreign trade, but
shortsighted laws prevent them from
using it for that purpose They can
lend an American importer all the
money he needs or is entitled to; but
they must then procure for him the in
aorsement Of London bank to make
the loan available in South America
and for that Endorsement the London
bank, OF course, charges its price. In
other words, being forbidden by law
to accept a bill-of-exchange, the Ameri-
can bank must hire London bank 10
accept the bill for it; aud under our
laws it is virtually impossible for our
most powerful commercial bank to es-
tabhsh branches abroad as English
banks do. That this useless depend
ence upon Europa especially upon
England-for proper credit instru-
'nents,is an important handicap to our
foreign trade no one doubts.-Satur,

The fall of the year always lays a
special strain upon the nations finan-
