To Predict Volcanoes.
ON the Philadelphia Inquirer.


It is rather astonishing news that the
volcano and earthquake center of this
terrestrial sphere hereafter is to be
Springfield, Mass. BY this 1t Is not meant
that the beautiful city on the Connecticut
Is to be erupted, but that 1t has been
chosen as the headquarters Of the Vol
cano Research Society. which Is to COM
prise experts from all over the world, in
Guiding few who apparently have more
provision on the subject than all the rest
Of mankind put together.
It has been supposed generally that
nothing was more uncertain than an
earthquake, and that to predict one was
impossible. Even trained men Of science
had come to look upon these outbursts OF
subterranean activity as unheralded and
beyond the realms of prophecy. although
much has been learned concerning their
nature and origin. 1t now appears that
these shiftings Of the earth's crust may
be predicted. at least III many cas~s.
What Is needed, according to the new
society, Is an organized watch placed on
the earth so that the first warnings may
be detected.
This proposition is not chimerical by
any means. 1t has back Of II scientific
men who have had vast experience and
who hope to save many thousand lives
In future. Also they expect to give ad-
vice to investors In the volcanic or earth
quake zones so that their losses may be
at the minimum. 1t seems certain that
a central. organized association may be
of benefit to mankind But IL 1t can by
any means accomplish q reasonable share
Of the benefits predicted 1t should be
taken over by the government as q
branch of the Smithsonian Institution.
Old mother earth has q nasty way OF
shaking things up occasionally. especially
In certain localities. We can never ex-
pect to break her Of the habit but If we
may have sufficient warning many lives
may be saved.

NEW YORK BANKS.

The Financier says:
The statement of the clearing house
banks this week, instead of the expected
slight loss of cash, showed a net increase
as the result of all operations OF 81 .6l6-
300. However, this was insufficient to
make up the increased reserve require
ment of nearly three million dollars
caused by additional deposits Of S11 Ssh
200, and as a result OF these changes the
reserve decreased 81, 354, 900. This brings
the surplus reserve above legal require
ments down to $30S20.025 The reserve
percentage stands at 21.23, which. al
though slightly below last weeks, is still
above that Of March rs. 1910. which was
25.SS, and March %, 1909. 26.6 The ex-
pansion in the loan account. amounting
to $40, sos, 900, accounted for the greater
part OF the gain In deposits. These hg-
ures are based on the actual statement.
The statement of averages. however, did
not differ very materially. the chief point
Of divergence being an increase of only
six millions in loans and something over
seven millions in deposits. while the gain
in cash was about the same. The sum-
mary Of outside state banks and trust
companies showed a reduction OF over
three millions in loans, loss of over
six and a half millions in deposits and
a loss of silica 500 In cash. There u
reason to believe that next weeks state
mer.t is more likely to show the adjust

BODYBUILDING IN BRITAIN.
Mountaineering Almost Equal to
That of Switzerland.

From the London News.
According to Ashley p. Abraham, who
lectured before the London institution,
Cumberland, Wales and Scotland are be-
coming formidable rivals of Switzerland
for those who love the hazardous joys Of
mountaineering and rock-climbing. The
lecturer said he knew scores Of men who
had formerly been in the habit Of noun
taineering in Switzerland, who, after one
visit to the island Of Skye. went there
mer holiday ground. The aim of the
to the top of a hill which was almost but
not quite impossible, and then to ignore
the six or seven safe paths, and for the
love of sheer adventure struggle up the
new way to the top. Mr.. Abraham's lec-
ture was a succession Of thrills, and was
accompanied by series Of hair-raising
photographs.
In taking one Of the photographs the
lecturer had to stand on a narrow plat
form about three feet square over a sheer
drop Of 100 feet. While his head was
under the cloth as he secured his focus
he lost his balance and fell over, but the
rope which bound him to his compan-
ion frightened and held him in safety
The photographs showed men on dizzy
cliffs, scrambling on all fours with but
an inch or SO of narrow rock between
them and q sheer drop of two or three
hundred feet. Mr.. Abraham told the story
Of an elderly Oxford don. who. when
working his way up q narrow chimney"
on the face of cliff lost his nerve. He
squeezed himself up the narrow chimney
and wedged himself SO tightly that he
could not move, meanwhile giving forth
Nnfh{nQ
could bulge him for q time, until his
companions threatened to take the rope
from his waist and leave him to his own
devices. With one desperate effort he
freed himself and continued his unwilling
climb.
Another elderly climber, a past presi-
dent of the Alpine Club, was climbing in
Cumberland with ropes attached to both
his waist and his feet While on a mar
row ledge over a precipice of 200 feet. the
guide holding the rope became confused
The past president shouted. and the guide
pulled the rope attached to his foot Feel
ing his balance about to be upset, he
shouted again, and the guide pulled
tinued. and in few minutes the guide
was astonished to see appearing over the
ledge the heels Of the president, who was
suspended lead downward over the cliff
Another adventure was more humorous
A stout gentleman climbing the Isle Of
Skye. suspended by rope, was spread
eagled on the face Of cliff, feeling in all
directions for the ledge which did not
exist.
He shouted for help, and said he felt
helpless. as he had cramp in the stomach
A Scotch guide fastened to his rescue,
and showed him that 1t was not cramp
but a piece of jutting rock that was Gauss
ing the pain. 1t was after a trying ex-
perience Of this sort that climber wrote:
II were a lover and loved lass
Who lived at the top Of Rosselt pass,
I'd love her and cherish her ever and ever,
But climb up to visit her never oh, never.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, March 25--The cotton
market was easier today under liquida-
ton, and local selling following the
failure of the census to create fresh
demand. and in response to favorable
weather and unfavorable crop accounts.
The close was steady, but at the lowest
prices OF the day, and at a net decline
Of 6a10 points. The market opened
of points, although cables were
rather better than due, and gradually
eased OF during the session. with May
selling as low as 14.43 and July at
1926. or about 20 points under the
high level OF March II. The selling
was scattered. but there seemed to be
rather aggressive pressure from some
OF the Wall street houses, and. while
there was little demand from leading
bulls on a scale down. the support was
at no time active. Foreign trade adj
vices showed no change, but the cur
taflment of production in Fal. River
was fully equal to last weeks. while
the sales were smaller, and the unfa-
vorable view Of the domestic trade sit
uation was emphasized by reports OF
further reductions in the selling price
OF bleached goods. and rumors that q
large Massachusetts, mill would close
down next week, throwing about $500
hands out OF employment.
Private wires from Texas reported
further rains in the southwest. and
some of the reports now coming in
describe the season as most favorable.
Notwithstanding these reports new
crop positions were relatively steady
during the morning. and it seemed
that their chief influence was directed
against the old crop positions, on the
ground that favorable news crop
outlook would materially affect the at
titude of the general trade toward
carrying old crop supplies during the
end season. Moreover the discounts at
which new crop months are already
selling may restrict fresh operations
for a decline to some extent The
bullish weekend figures probably help
