Wanton War.

What is most astonishing, according to my way of looking at it, is that men should bring each other into such a state; that men who have seen such a sight should not sink down on their knees and swear d passionate oath to make war on war: that if they are princes they do not fling the sword away or if they are in any position of power they do not from that moment devote their whole action in speech or writing. in thought, teaching or busi- ness to this one end-lay down your arms.-Baroness von Suttner.

PLENTY OF MONEY
TO MOVE CROPS
Federal Government Will Deposit
Funds For This Purpose
Throughout Country.

Washington, July 26-Money
from the federal treasury will be de-
posted in national banks throughout
the country again this fall to facili-
tate the movement of crops and pro-
mote business generally. Secretary
McAdoo announced tonight he would
put out approximately $34,OOO,O 900
and that he stood ready to increase
the amount to any extent necessary
TO meet the country's needs.
The secretary's estimate of what
will be needed is. based on replies
from 5000 national banks to a re
cent treasury department circular
asking whether any unusual demand
for money was expected this year and
for what purposes. Last year the
department inaugurated the custom
OF distributing funds in the crop
handling centers, depositing about
$S5, 100000 OF the $50. 900 Sec
retary McAdoo had decided to use for
the purpose.
A statement from the department
tonight said:
These replies (from the national
banks, fully confirm optimists bull
letins OF the agricultural department
as to prospects for unusually large
crops. They also indicate a decided
promise OF greatly improved business
conditions and enlarged business ac-
tivities. The consensus of opinion of
the bankers is that it will be OF great
benefit to the crop movement and to
business generally IL the secretary
will deposit government funds in the
leading cities"
National banks in many cities indi-
Gated their desire for crop moving
deposits and government funds will
be deposited with them aggregatlng
approximately $34,OOO,OOO. Among
others the list included:
Baltimore, Charlotte, Greensboro,
and Wilmington, N. c.; Charleston,
Columbia, Greenville and spartan
burg, S. c.; Chattanooga, Knoxville,
Memphis and Nashville, Tenn ::
Lynchburg, Roanoke, Norfolk and
Richmond, Va.
Many cities announced govern
ment funds would not be needed.

Dublin, July 27.-Rioting broke
out again tonight but subsided with
out serious results. The rumor was
atioat that the Scottish Borderers

station. A great crowd, mostly from
the slums, surrounded the station.
The rioters stoned the street cars.
Six hundred volunteers paraded
through the streets, a crowd number
Ing several thousand following them
singing.
Feeling runs high throughout Ma
tionalist Ireland. Town councils are
adopting resolutions denouncing 1.-The
massacre" The soldiers of the Linn
erick and kilkenny garrisons are con-
fined to barracks. Concerts by mill
tary bands in several towns have
Deen cancelled.
The Lord Mayor OF Dublin has
called meeting of the magistrates
to consider the action OF the castle
authorities in calling out the police
and soldiers without consulting the
city officials. The police threaten a
strike unless those members of the
department who were dismissed for
disobedience OF orders ar ereinstated.
1t was dawn today before the po-
lice succeeded in dispensing the
crowds marching through the streets
singing patriotic songs and looking
for members of the Scottish Border
ers, on whom to infiict vengeance for
the fatal events of yesterday. The
crowd finding that the soldiers had
been ordered to remain in barracks
attacked the Royal barracks and
clamored for the soldiers to come
out Finally the mob kicked down
a gate and fired a couple of shots be-
fore 1t was dispersed by the police.
Landing of arms yesterday for the
Nationalists was carried out in a
most daring manner. Yesterdays
attempt was undertaken to show that
the Nationalists could do what the
Ulster Unionists had done. At
Howth, $500 rifles and 10000
rounds OF ammunition we're landed
under the eyes of the police, the
telegraph wires having been cut to
prevent communication with Dublin.

started for Dublin with 1000 rifles.
The police sent to intercept the vol

everything seemed to be going
smoothly until the battalion OF Scot
tish Borderers came on the scene.
