AMERICAN BOARD
SPENT $1,O32,OOO
Rev. Edward H. Noyes at the Annual
Meeting In Milwaukee Yesterday,
His Report Given.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. l2.-An aggre-
gate expenditure of sl032,000 in the
work of the American board for l9ll,
was reported by Rev. Edward II. Noyes
of Newton, in "A Special Address from
the Prudential Committee" at the an.
nual melting of the American board yes
terday.
In making known these figures, Mr..
Moves said: "We should be dull, in
deed, were there not note of ex-
ultant joy in every reference to the
record of the boards financial year.
The relief from anxiety in the face Of
q threatened deficit adds a keener zest
to our present jubilation."
The amount expended, Mr.. Noyes ex.
planned, was more than 100000 above
the budget estimate of the committee
at the beginning OF the year. An in
crease Of $4,000 in the gifts OF the
women's boards, OF $4,000 in special
gifts and 'the magnificent response TO
our appeal" from the other sources, pro-
vided the excess.
I'VE have established a standard for
the future" declared Mr. Noyes. 1--WE
have become million dollar mstitu-
ton. Now, we want the second mil
lion"
Mr. Noyes uttered caution against
being mislead by the magnitude Of the
figures given, saying that of the ST.
052,000 disbursed, only S304,000 came
from churches and individuals. This
amount. he said, was $4,000 below
the mark set specifically for churches
and individuals in the apportionment
at the beginning Of the year.
In reviewing the work and expert
enee Of the prudential committee, Mr..
Noyes emphasized particularly what he
named as 'the summons Of opportunity"
He said: Every mission of the board
beseeches us with almost hysterical ur
geney to reap the harvest already white.
We face a solemn responsibility in Tur
key, whose momentous changes in re-
cent years have been in no small meas
ure the fruit OF our half-century of
teaching. Africa, India, China, Japan,-
turn where you will, it is the same story
of men and nations with open minds
seeking the highest the earth can give.
And always there are appeals for

than any one field or any single instr
tuition Whole nations, such as Turkey
and China, each in its own way, are in
plastic state Of development. The
clay is hardening before our eyes. If
we are ready, ii we will make the inn
press firm and deep to-day, We may
set the seal of Christ upon these mighty
empires of the future, but il we fall
ter and delay, ten years from now
yes, five years from now-we might as
well try to carve the unyielding granite
with penllnife."
Mr.. Moves made the main point of
his conclusion as follows: This dec
ade is turning point in human his
tory. The civilizations Of the East and
West are face to face. The religions
OF the nome Christian world are disin-
tegrating What is to replace them
In Japan, China, India, Turkey. Africa,
the future is being determined by these
swiftly passing years. Christianity has
the greatest opportunity of all the cen
turtles of its history"

HARD GAME EXPECTED.
Dartmouth Looking for Tough PROPOSE
ton In Holy Cross.

Hanover. n. H., Oct l2-On Satur-
day, October IA. Dartmouth's heaviest
football artillery will be called out for
the first big game of the year Dart
mouth knows that Holy Cross, her
snappy and aggressive opponents, Will
make her show all that she has to win.
Fresh from a virtual victory over Har-
ward, the Holy Cross hordes, heavily
backed by the student body and hosts
of loyal friends, are preparing to swoop
down on the quiet little town OF Han
over, to do or die for Alma Mater
and hoist the purple over the green for
the first time in history.
Dartmouth is making extraordinary
preparations to care for u big crowd,
and il is a foregone conclusion that Han
over and the surrounding towns will
be forced to their utmost to care for
the big throng Of visitors.
The largest football squad that ever
left Mount st. James, thirty we'll
groomed, powerful athletes, in charge Of
Road Coach Tim Larkin, will be quar-
tered over Friday night al Norwich,
VT, two miles out from Hanover.
Coach Larkin says: IL make no predic-
tions except 10 say that Dartmouth will
know she has been playing football
when the last whistle Of the referee
ends the contest. Ny men are In fine
fettle, and were never more ready TO
fight for a victory. The Harvard game
has proven to them that they are not
second rates. and while they are far
from feeling over-confdenee, they have
acquired that one best of all pre-re-
auisites to success-as assurance. May the
better team win"
Coach Cayanaugh says: Dartmouth
has great respect for all her opponents,
and treasures particularly her relations
with Holy Cross both in football and
baseball. We always get from Holy
Cross Just what we want, to wit, a
hard, fast and sportsmaulike game. We
expect fierce battle and we are ready.
In the game Saturday Dartmouth wishes
Holy Cross all that she deserves, moth
ing more, nothing less
The varsity game will start at 3
o'clock. As a curtain raiser there will
be game at 2 o'clock between the

CITIES SELLING FOOD.
Berlin and Budapest Go Into Business on
a Wholesale Scale.

Berlin. Oct. l2.-With view TO miti-
eating the conditions resulting from the
extraordinary rise in food prices, the
city of Berlin has gone into business as
a wholesale food merchant. Ii EN-.
barked formally ON the experiment on
Tuesday, when at ten Of the big public
market places quantities of sea fish,
purchased by the municipality, were
placed on sale. According to the plan
adopted by the city council, agents have
been sent to Geestemuende, the great
fishing center on the North sea, to con-
tract for the purchase of carloads of sea
fish at the best obtainable wholesale
prices. On arrival in Berlin, the fish is
sold at a low cost TO the retailers, by
whom Il is distributed among the con.
sumers. The retailers, however, bind
themselves TO sell at prices fixed by the
city, the authorities hoping that in this
way the public win be able to get GER
tain kinds Of highly nutritious fish food
at prices as low as 90 or 25 pfennigs
Is to cents) pound.
In the markets where the sales began
there were lively scenes yesterday morn
ing. Some Of the booths were surround
ed by excited crowds of poor women,
eager to make purchases. 1t is planned
to open later seventy branch markets
under municipal control, and possibly
to extend the plan to include other vari-
cites of food. Some of the smaller cities
near Berlin already have arranged to
undertake the purchase of wholesale sup
plies of potatoes and other vegetables to
be distributed in similar way
Budapest. Oct l2.--To allay the pop
ular agitation against the high prices Of
food and relieve, if possible, the discom-
fort such prices entail upon the wage
earners, the city authorities have re-
solved to try what municipal ownership
can do to improve the situation. After
conferences with the government, the
mayor announces that the city council
is planning several relief measures. First
among them is the enlargement of the
municipal bread factory, which is said
to have proved so far q great success,
The capacity of the factory is to be in
creased threefold. Then it is proposed
to establish a central milk market and,
further. to build extensive abattoirs, the
cattle for which will be bought direct
from the breeders. Lastly, the city in
tends to convert large areas of ground
into market gardens, the products to be
sold through central organization The
plans for the abattoirs are already com
pleted. and have been submitted TO the
minister president, Count Khuen, Heder-
vary, for approval. Altogether, the city
council is embarking upon somewhat
ambitious and extensive project, the out
come of which will be watched with
much interest, and perhaps even more
misgivings.

Betraying Signals by an Outsider.


Hugh s. Fullerton, in another of his
great series Of articles on baseball, in
the American Magazine. THE Right and
Wrong Baseball" in the October mum
Der, writes that the betrayal of one
teams signals to the other by out
siders is considered unsportsmanlike He
writes:
II have been told many times that
signal tipping by outsiders is an inn
possibility, and some players believe
that no one possesses eyes keen enough
to detect and interpret the catcher's
signals Yet Morgan Murphy, an at
tache of the Philadelphia club, for three
years. by the use of powerful field
glasses, kept the hatters and base run
ners of that team informed constantly
what ball the pitcher would pitch out,
and what play was to be attempted
TO do this he conveyed the signals by
means of an electrical "buzzer" planted
in the ground under the feet of the
coacher. In vain the pitcher and catch
er changed signals or changed their
meanings. Murphy seemed uncanny in
his ability to understand their signals.
Years afterward / asked Murphy how
he managed it.
"Why those boneheads,' be laughed,
they never seemed to think that if
anyone in the club house could see the
catcher's signals he could see the bench,
They would sit on the bench and ex-
plain the signals to each other and
with the glasses could see as plainly
as if / was sitting with them"

MEDIATION OF GERMANY

Berlin. Oct. l2.-An armistice between
Italy and Turkey for which German d.
plomacy has been striving for some time,
it is believed here, has practically been
concluded, although not yet announced
officially
II is understood that the transporta-
ton of the Italian military expedition
viii not be interfered WITH but that
hostilities in all quarters will cease.
This il considered in Berlin as equiva-
lent to the ending of the war, which will
now be succeeded by negotiations look
ing to settlement.
Paris, Oct. Accommodation with
Tripoli having been re-established, de-
tails of the situation there are pouring
in. From yesterdays advices il appears
that Munhir Pasha, the commander Of
the Turkish garrison together with his
staff, trusted until the last moment
they would receive achievements. When
they were finally compelled TO retreat,
they went so hurriedly that many sup.
plies were left behind.
Even now Munhir says that Constan-
.tinople must have some plan to come TO
his aid. Meanwhile he is gathering his
forces in the Gharian hills, where are
all the available Turkish soldiers and
armed Arabs from the Jebel region He
has provisions for six weeks.
II seems TO be the intention of the
Turkish commander to resist the Italians
as long as possible, but If he il not rein
forced TO gradually retire, following the
Gharian range, which viii provide him
with sufficient water, until he reaches
the frontier of Tunis, which his forces
viii cross rather than fall into the hands
Of the Italians.
Reports from Tripoli yesterday after
noon state that the Arabs Of the interior
are circulating report that the great
Mahdi OF the Saraha, having heard of
the Italian invasion, is gathering arms
and men and especially trained horse
men and proclaiming holy war, which
Is to be conducted relentlessly until the
siniidels" are driven into the sea.
The Italian authorities have found ev-
idence at Benghazi showing that the
place was the center for large importa-
tions Of rifles for the Senussi and Wadai
tribes, and which were gradually distrib-
uted among the tribes Of Central Africa.
Strict measures have now been adopt
ed to close this last section of the Afri-
can coast, heretofore free to receive arms
and SUPPLIES for the tribes of the in
terror.

Lieut.. Lynch Believed to Have Planned
Act Before Marriage.

San Antonio, Tex, Oct. 12.Why
Lieut.. John b. Lynch, Sd cavalry, shot
himself at a. m. after having been
married at | a. M, remains a mystery.
The only explanation is that he had
determined on the act previously and
married Miss Gladys Caruthers so that
under the law she would be entitled to
the pension which goes to the widow of
an officer. This would be thirds
pay for life.
Lieut.. Lynch was involved financially
and faced possible dismissal for drunk
enness, and probably took this method
OF making what he considered the prop
en- amends to the woman who became his
bride.
