LONDON, Sept. 10.

here. Excitement over reports OF Ger

vance. It declares that the battle in
France was without decision UP till Mon

The Government Is making public only
some of the losses and the newspapers are
carrying only small percentage of even
the official lists. There is declared to be
grave discomfort because the Government
has failed to make any provision for the
unemployed. Business generally Is at a
standstill and the leading Socialist news
papers are complaining because the Gov
ernment is employing prisoners on road
work instead OF hiring German unem-
ployed.
Some of the reports received from inte-
rior Germany say that already there are
whispers of an uprising by the Socialists.

Methodist Ministers Plan Relief for
Aged, Sick and Dependent.
CHICAGO, Sept ia plan to raise a
fund of s5.OOO.OOO for aged and sick Metho-
dist ministers and their dependents was
outlined here today at the Methodist
ministers meeting by ]. c. Hingely, cor
responding secretary OF the board of
conference OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church of the World. A committee was
appointed to further the suggestion.
Methodist clergymen here were much
interested when told today of the Chi
cago plan. They gave it their indorse-
ment at the last annual meeting OF the
Philadelphia Conference.
The Rev. DIR. Frank 2. Parkin, a dis
trict superintendent, said church people
were beginning to believe that the men
who gave their lives, after spending much
time and money for education, to the
cause Of Christianity, were deserving of
as much consideration as policemen, fire.

old and unable to work.
According to the plan of DR.. Hingely,
Philadelphia clergymen unable to work,
or those dependent on them for support,
would receive $40 pension annually for

pastoral work Between so and 100 per-
sons In the conference would benefit.

CANADA BECOMES
FERTILE FIELD FOR
AMERICAN EXPORTS
Introduction of Austro-Ger-
man Wars and Stoppage of
European Trade Creates
Receptive Market.

Great opportunities are available for
creased export trade with Canada in
made In America" goods, according to
Dudley Bartlett, chief of the Foreign
Trade Bureau of the Philadelphia Com
mercial Museums. These opportunities
are a direct result OF the European war,
through the action of the Canadian Min
lister of Customs in prohibiting the i'm
portation into Canada of goods from Ger
many and Austria Hungary. The i'm
ports from these two countries into Can
ada amounted in round numbers to $16,-
OOoOOO annually. 1t was also pointed out
that the imports from France, Belgium
and Russia. which for the time being
are as effectively cut off as If they were
forbidden. amounted approximately to
s2O,ooO.0OO 9 year. So this prohibited and
interrupted import trade of Canada totals
$50, 600, 600.
ut is reasonable" Chief Bartlett says,
ito assume that Canada will be in the
market for substitutes for the goods
which make up this total. That they
will have to be imported is a reasonable
assumption. 1t is hardly likely that the
Canadian manufacturers at this time are
in a position to make up the deficit,
though they may seize the moment to
develop along the necessary manufactur-
ing lines. This leaves two alternatives:
Importation from Great Britain or from
the United States. 1t is hardly reason
able to expect that British manufac-
turers will be able to take advantage of
the present opportunity. On the other
hand, it would not be surprising if i'm
ports from the mother country, which
amounted 20 sl39,646356 last year. should
be temporarily curtailed."
The present opportunity for American
manufacturers in Canada is principally
in the lines here enumerated. And to
make the information of practical value
the importation on the lines given from
each of the bellgerent countries are also
