thing, as the incentive to reckless ex-

sentiment and is unquestionably encour-

the distribution of July !, 1912. The divi-
dend item shows an increase of $4,000.
while interest payments will be larger by
about $7,000O00. 1t would appear also that
the international trade is a robust partlcl-

and imports for IL months exceeded all

Lawson Cleans up $7,O0O,OOO
tom Lawson the Boston sensational
ist. is said to have cleaned up a profit OF
about $7O0O,O00 on his six month bear
campaign. He began his operations with
his usual run of page advertisements IN
the newspapers, predicting woeful panic
and a series of political as well as finan-
cial earthquakes. His market predictions
panned out partly right. He bet as ne
prophecied and the bank account reflects
the extent, vigor and luck of really SEN
sationally play. Little is heard from him
these days, from which the theory is built
that he is out of the market for the time
being.

ARMY OF 100000

Belfast, Ireland, Sept. 17.--sir Ed

Unionists, has landed in Ireland The
object of his visit, it was said, was tc
inspect volunteer army which is
being raised in Ulster to support the
provisional government which is tc
be brought into existence In case the
home rule bill becomes law.
The Ulster army is said to be thor.
oughly organized and to have attained
strength of about 100000 men. This
number its leaders expect to double
when recruiting has been completed.
Sir Edward intends to spend week
In Ulster. With several lieutenants
he will visit the various corps which
have been formed by drilled men OF
the Unionist clubs and Orange lodges.
The climax of Sir Edwards visit
will come on Saturday, when he has
arranged to inspect the Belfast Union.
list corps.
In the course of the week number
of private meetings of the Ulster
Unionist council will take place to
complete arrangements for the pro.
visional government, which it is the
purpose eventually to establish. Their.
seems to be little hope of general
conference between the various parties
on the question Of homo rule.

After CASTLE had thrown off Moor
ish rule Seville was made the capital
of Spain. For severa centuries Chris
tan kings lived in the Alcazar, ad-
ding somewhat to the original struc-
ture as the MOOrs had left it. The
name of Pedro is more closely con-
nected than any other Spanish rul-
err with the history and fiction of the
building. He was called Pedro the
Cruel. A grim sense of humor and a
habit of going through the streets of
Eeville in disguise have made him
the subject of many odd tales and
rumors. Some OF these stories are
merely whimsical. He is said to
have met four candidates for a
judges position besides a pool in the
gardens where they had gone to find
him. Pedro, turning to the first
asked him what was floating in the
pool.
"An orange" replied the candidate
without hesitation.

CORPORATION TAX IS UNFAIR
Duluth Judge Asserts Law Imposes
Burden on Cities. B..

Duluth, Sept. 17.-Minnesota's gross
earnings tax system, which practical
ly exempts railroads and other cor
porations to which it applies from
the payment of special assessments
for public improvements, is unjust
to the municipalities of the state and
unfair to general taxpayers in cities
with terminal facilities, according to
an opinion handed down by Judge
Bert Fesler in the district court.
Judge Fesler's opinion follows his
decision of an appeal taken by the
Northern Pacific Railroad company
from an assessment to defray the ex-
pense of repaving and improving a
city highway.
The court holds that the. railroad
company, underS-a strict interpreta-
ton Of the gross earnings tax law,
cannot be assessed for special i'm
provements, and orders the assess
