Continued dry weather had bullish

Chicago. Aug. Up IN the feeder ui-

LINER TO TURN FIGHTER.
England Plans to Convert Mauritania
Into Fast Cruiser.

Halifax, \. S., Aug, 7.-When the
Cunard liner Mauretania, which put
into port here yesterday with 2,4O0 pas
sengers, fleeing from Europe again
sails from Liverpool, she will be fitted
as H. NJ s. Mauretania and prepared
TO destroy the hostile shipping of Ger
many.
1t was expected today that the
Mauretania would soon return to Liv-
erpool under convoy of British war
ships and that she would immediate
ly be turned over to the admiralty for
an equipment of quick fire guns, coat
of dark grey paint and white ensign.
Commerce destruction was the ult1-
mate purpose for which the Mauretania
was constructed. She was practically
built for the admiralty and many
features of warship construction were
embodied in her hull.
She and the Lusitania were the first
merchant vessels built with Longitude
nal bulkheaGs. Provision for magazines
vas made Armored gun positions
were built into her hull with ammuni-
ton HOSTS running the magazine.
The guns are in store at Liverpool
Every officer and the greater part
of her crew are naval reserve men,
shipped with the special view of turn
ing her into a warship in case of an
emergency such as at present.
