MONEY ORDER
RATES BOOSTED
Tariff On Remittances To Eu-
rope PrOhibitive; Some Com
panies Refuse Business

Rates equaling the amount Of money
to be sent have been instituted by
the Adams Express Company on
foreign postal remittances and
cheques, while the American and
Wells-Fargo companies have stopped
their foreign exchange business en-
tirely, as a result OF the financial sit
uation caused by the impending gem
eral war In Europe.
Because of the likelihood Of trav.
elers' cheques being utilized to liqui-
date foreign Indebtedness at a con-
siderable cost TO the company, the
Adams company has served notice
that II may be necessary TO ask a
premium on this branch OF the bust
ness. Remittances sent even at the
exorbitant rates now In force, are
handled entirely at the risk OF the
sender because Of the risk OF loss 20

The rate on remittances 10 Ger
many Is the lowest being sos per 400
marks, which is equivalent 70 500 In

rate Is 20 cents per frame, which IS

time the company has sold 100000
cars. ii will virtually have on its stan
zoe, 900 unsalaried sales agents: II Is
planned TO issue statements OF the
number of sales TO date monthly,
weekly or as often as is deemed prop
er In order to give the campaign all
the excitement of voting contest to
select the pTettiest girl in a country
town.
II the plan works out as successfully
as Is expected, between S12,000,000
and 31S,000,090 in cash will be distrib-
uted on or about Aug. 1, 1915 among
those who have bought Ford cars be-
tween now and then. The proposed
output of 100000 represents a very
moderate increase in view OF growth
according TO officials of the company
The output Of the last year has been,
221,SsS; that of the year before, 1885,
900 and those Of preceding years re-
spectively, $4,000, 10000 and 10000
One unusual feature OF the announce
ment Just made is the guarantee OF
the company extended 10 dealers that
there will be no further change In
prices during the coming year. This
Is to relieve them OF the danger of loss
on cars which they might have In
stock when cut was announced.
Notices of the new plans were sent
out In advance to dealers all over the
United States. They resulted in an
immediate rush of orders for more
cars, according TO the sales depart.
ment OF the home plant
II Is said that II the company could
be assured OF good business year,
and the opportunity to sell 100000
cars II would make the cut In price
practically double what II is and give
the purchaser the immediate benefit
OF the rebate which Is TO be offered
him conditionally at the end Of the
year.
The Ford Motor Co. now has in oper,
alton IN the United States 81 different
assembling plants in various parts OF
the country. II is proposed eventually
10 divide the country among these In
the most economical way and let each
one furnish long shipments OF set up
cars. This plan is followed wherever
possible now.
