the water hole. There each animal in
its common need Of the precious water,
meets his fellow beast be he but of
the herbivorous family. in spirit of
phant rubs his rough pachyderm
against the glossy skin of the slender
limbed harte- beasts. the king of the
water hole, looks down with generous
liberation on the stunted and ugly body
of the wart hog. Here is shown the
devotion of the mother giraffe for it's
calf, the elephane for it's baby.
From this stamping ground of beasts
the audience is taken to the lakes,
where storlls, golden crested cranes,
and flamingoes fly about in bewilder-
ing myrads, then to the plains where
wild buffalo in stampede later threaten
to destrop both operator and machine.
The hunt of the cheetah, one of the
swiftest and fiercest species of the cat
tribe, by Mr. Rainey's trained hounds,
from the time the first scent is picked
up by the hounds until it is finally
treed and shot. arouses an intense
spirit of the hunt and chase in the
audience. It is in the chase of one of
the, cheetafs that Mr.. Rainey is shown
lassoing live specimen from the
branches of tree.
The Rainey pictures will be shown
again this evening.

NATIONAL BANKS
WOULD RETIRE
From the Currency Association If
State Banks Are Allowed to Is
sue Circulating Medium.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ma
tional banks have given notice that
they will retire from the currency
association if state banks are allowed
to issue emergency currency on
equality with national banks, accord
ing to statements made today by Sec
rotary McAdoo and members Of the
reserve board to the house banking
committee.
This fact was brought out at a
hearing on a bill passed by the SEN
ate and pending before the house
committee which would increase the
amount of circulating notes issuable
on commercial paper to rs per cent,
and extend this privilege to state
banks and trust companies. The re-
serve board, however, favored the
proposed increase in currency while
opposing the extension of the issu-
ance privilege.
Paul NJ. Warburg, of the reserve
board. warned the committee against
injuring commercial interests by cur
rency imitation.

TWENTY-FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS EVERY DAY
Is COST OF WAR NOW BEING
WAGED BY THE GREAT Ma
TIONS OF EUROPE.
Eight and Half Million Men Are
Under Arms for Land Warfare, to
Which Must Be Added Three Hun
bred Thousand Seamen.

PARIS.-No war chronicled by
history will have devoured such huge
sums of money as the present battle
of the nations. The minimum cost is
estimated here by economists at ST.
600, 100000. The figures given by
military writer's coincide and agree
that about 100000 men are under
arms for land warfare. To these
must be added $4,000 seamen.
If the Balkan war can be taken as
an example the cost of each man
modified amounts to $3.50 a day.
This gives about 22,00O,00O daily,
or 1853, 900, 900 monthly. This fig
ure is, however, considerably short
of the mark, because it does not take
into account the maintenance of the
armies and fleets. The German reich
stag authorized extraordinary ex-
penditure to the extent of $780,
100000 to be obtained by loan, and
a further sum of 100000 to be
drawn on the gold and silver reserve
of the empire.
1t is now we'll known that the tax
of 5 per cent on the stock of notes
issued by the Reischbank over and
above its reserve in metal has been
suppressed. The German govern
ment will therefore secure the loan
required by an issue of bank notes
uncovered by a reserve of gold and
silver. This issue reminds one of the
assignats of the first French revOlu
ton, of which few samples are kept
as curious heirlooms in French fami-
lies.
1t is said here that the Austrian
army on a war footing costs the en-
pire 100000 a day, but the Aus
trian treasury was emptied by the
mobilization during the Balkan wars,
which drained the financial resources
of the empire for more than a year,
and it is hard to see where the Aus
trian monarchy can find the $780,
600, 900 required to keep the impe-
rial and royal armies and navy dur
ing the great war just opening.
The above figures are probably far
short of reality, and it is therefore
difficult to see how the central Euro
pean empires can support long and
arduous war from the financial and
economic point of view.

clamor to have the exchange opened
in order that a uniform price for cot
ton may be established. New Eng
land also has sent appeals and sug-
gestions prompted by the difficulty
which spinners have found in ascer-
tanning the price of cotton and also
in obtaining a basis for the sale of
cotton waste.
Cotton in the South is still very
firm, and many shippers are reject
ing all inquiries and bids for high
grades until the present scramble of
spot shorts has subsidized and taken
the edge off the buying movement.
Sales have been made to New Eng
land spinners at what appeared to be
ruinOusly low prices, and no doubt
there has been a strong element OF
speculation in these transactions. II

Der of firms who have sold ahead at
low prices in the expectation Of COW
ering at profit are likely to be bad

ment has not yet been felt and spot
shorts consequently are hoping for
chance to recover.
The Southern press is giving con-
siderable publicity to the buy a
bale" movement, which appears to be
spreading over the entire South. The
quantity of cotton that would be TAX
en- off the market by this process,
however, would hardly be a factor in
calculations.

NOT LOOKING FOR

THOUGH THE "DRYS" MAY STILL

LAW-MAKING BODY.


Observation-Disclosures Have Il Larger
Fighting Force Than in Several
Years, and Will Be in Position to
Make Fight.
ATLANTA-The speculative ones
have already begun to figure on the
attitude of the next legislature to-
ward the prohibition question. Not
withstanding the fact that Georgia
has a prohibition law the question
seems to remain an exceedingly live
ly one and comes to light with every
session of the legislature.
The politicians here who have been
studying the matter express the opin-
ion that the next legislature will not
be so strongly prohibition as was the
last or the one before that. They
admit that if it comes to a downright
issue of prohibition or local option
the incoming legislature would by a
small majority stand on the side of
prohibition. But they say that the
number who would oppose any fur
Their radical legislation along this
line is considerably larger than that
which would support it.
Otherwise construed this express
sion is taken to mean that the anti
prohibitionists will have a larger
fighting force in the new legislature
than they have had in several years
and that they could conduct a better
organized and more successful tilibus-
ter than in the past in the event oc-
casion should require it.
In view of these facts politicians
generally are not looking for any
marked agitation Of the prohibition
question when the legislature meets
next year. In fact they think that
the new legislature will quietly take
the ground that Georgia has all the
law on the subject that is necessary.

NEW YORK.-Hope of an early

Hill now being drafted a special tax
on them of $50 a year. Such a tax
was levied in the war revenue act OF
the Spanish-American war, which the

their business is demoralized. They
also point to the uncertainty as to
when stock exchanges will resume
operations.
The matter has been taken under

closed their offices.
Would Exempt Checks.
Some mem bers desire to exempt
checks from the proposed &c stamp
tax if the treasury estimates show
that 500, 100000 in revenue can be
raised without them. Great increase
in land transactions and insurance
business since the Spanish war they
believe will afford sufficient stamp
tax revenues.
If it is found undesirable to elimi-
nate all checks it may be decided to
exempt all checks of $50 or less.
Administration leaders hope to
