New York, Sept. 21.-One of the most remarkable exhibitions ever held in New Yo.'k-tne third International l Rubber and Allied Trades Exposition, which will he on view from Septem- Der 23 to October at the Grand Central Palace-was officially pro- nounced ready for pablic inspection today
 The rubber exposition comprises, among other things, over million dollars worth of raw rubber from ev- cry rubger producing country in the word, an extensive exhibit of manu- factured rubber and the practical working methods by which the raw material is refined to a composition suitable for manufacture. To eXem- plify this latter phase of the exhibit rubber trees have been imported from the lands where they flourish to the Grand Central Palace. There they will be milked and the lateX, as the milk is technically known, will be transformed to the manufactured pro- duct before the eyes Of the visitor
 The exhibition was visited by rep resentatives from Brazil Mexico, Ceylon, British Malaya, Java, British Guiana, Trinidad, Belgium and Bel Jn6O-P hlnp. Eouatoriai Africa, Occidental Africa, the Hawaiian Islands, Portugal, Peru and other smaller countries today. These visitors pronounced the exhibit the most remarkable in the history of the organiZation, superCedlng even that one held in London last year un- der tine patronage of King George.
 The International Congress of RuD- Der Manufactures has also decided to hold its session during the period oc- cupied by the rubber exposition. This body includes planters, chemists and scientists from every rubber produc- ing country in the world. Among them are numbered some of the 1oremos' men in the rubber trade.
 Mir. A. Stanes Manders. who is managing the exhibit, called particu- lar attention to the American rubber exhibit He said:
 "It is not generally known that the United States is interested i'll the growing of rubber. hut l am happy to state that some of the most inter
 estine exhibits are from the American colony in Hawaiian islands. The ; Philippines, too, are very productive i, rubber. pr. James Walter St.ons has taken charge of the island eX hihit.
 , "The present exposition has beer prompted by the desire of the pro ducers of rubber to interest the man ufacturers in their output and no eN pense has been spared to make th' exhibition attractive"
 The United States consumes neari! one-half of the rubber produced ever! wear and more than three times thf amount used by Great Britain or Ger many. Nearly all the important gov eynmeIits that had space in the Lon don exhibition have space here, ant

LEFT IN MOTHERS CARE.
Divorced Wife of B. r. Tillman Re.
tains Control of Children.

COLUMBIA, S. c., December 3.-Chief
Justice Gary of the state supreme court
has announced that Mrs. Lucy Dugas.
divorced wife of B. r. Tillman, jr. son
of Senator Tillman, should retain the
custody of her two young daughters
pending the decision of the court. This
announcement was made following the
conclusion of the habeas corpus proceed
ings brought by Tillman.
Many affidavits were offered by the pc
titioner to substantiate his assertions that
he has ceased drinking and to overturn
the testimony of Mrs. Dugas that he had
been under the influence of intoxicants
November and 10.
Counsel for Tillman argued that there
are material changes in the status of the
parties involved since the former trial
The main contention was that this state
fails to recognize a divorce law and that.
therefore, Mrs Dugas must be considered
the legally welded wife of the petitioner.
in which case he is equally within his
rights in demanding the custody OF the
children.

LONDON, December 3.-Money was in
good demand and discount rates were easy
today.
Trading was quiet on the stock ex-
change. The near-eaStern situation is re-
garded pessimistically by traders. but the
market was strengthened by continental
and local buying of investment stocks. Of
which Mexican rails and Grand Trunk
were the firmest features Consols closed
an eighth higher. The weakness in Ber-
lin, however. caused a dropping tendency
late in the day.
American securities were quiet and
steady during the forenoon. Prices ad-
vanced from u to Ia over parity. under
the lead of Union Pacific. The dissolu-
ton of the Hartman merger had no eff
feet until the afternoon, when Wall street
offered Southern Pacific down two points
or more and the. rest of the list eased or
in sympathy. The closing was uncertain.
