Engineering Journal Devotes Much
Space to Hawkeye State.

Special TO Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 4-The work be-
ing done by the Iowa highway COM
mission for building foundation for
permanent good roads in Iowa calls
forth several pages of explanation and
analysis in Engineering and Contract
ing the big journal of engineering
published in Chicago. SO it seems that
what Iowa is doing is attracting the
favorable attention of the world out-
side. however much 1t may still be in
the minds of .objectors to protest
against anything being done. The work
of the Iowa commission in straighten-
ing out the entire bridge business is
the thing which attracts general at
tention. 1t is declared that no other
state Of the union has ever done so
much in such short time in putting the
bridge business on a new basis.

 MISSION ID U. s.
Believed Debts Abroad Will Be Absorbed By New In-
 crease of Trade

Washington, November 4--Sir George Paish and Basil B. Blackett of the Eng fish treasury practically have ended their mission in America and as consequence of their conferences with the federal re- serve board and New York bankers it was indicated tonight that no further steps need be taken for the present to arrange for shipments of American gold to Europe.
 The conferences have brought the con- viction that the matter of American debts abroad will be adjusted through the nat ural avenues of trade and through the special machinery already set up. The $l00 Q00,000 gold pool. the New York city syndicate and American crops are expect ed to take care of the present American indebtedness.
 It IS said Sir George agreed that no issue of short-time notes will be neces- sary to match the balance in favor of England which the gold pool and the New York syndicate will leave.
 Revived trade, American officials be- lieve, soon will eat up the outstanding amounts. If the same view is taken by the British treasury, American banks will not be drained of their gold at the time when they are about to shift their re- serves to federal reserve banks.
 Only one matter remains to be adjusted. There still is fear that if the London Stock exchange opens for business thousands of shares of American securities will be put on the market at bargain prices bound to attract American investors. Such dump ing of American stocks would send the American balance on the wrong side of the ledger, and lead to conditions under which EEgland might feel she must ask for cash.

Demufrers filed by the state were overruled following the sub mission of an agreed statement of facts. Judge Gunter issued judgment for the petitioner and awarded the mandamus. Judge Gunte7 Efso provided for the re- fund of the nietiey under the Alabama su- preme courts decision in the Bigbee Fer tilizer company case, in which it was held that taxes erroneously collected might be returned.
 The case doubtless will cause the state to return many thousands of dollars col lected during the years 1907, 1908 and 1909 under the statute which has been vitiated by the high federal tribunal Judge Gun ter rendered no opinion, but only an entry minute of the judgment and interlocutory action of the court.

Charlie Leonard, star second sacker

wielder of the slapstick that has caus-
ed many pitcher to shudder at his
name, have a different version to the
story about the Brunswick barber who
refused to shave their heads after CIV
ing Dave CASTOR a good convict treat
ment.
Salome is positive that Dave was
correct when he states that he (the
manager was the first in the barber 3
chair, but insists that with that state
men the truth of the story as told by
Dave ends.
"Of course, he was the first one ia
the chair" said Salome. "And that's
why the BARRIERS wouldn't, or couldn't
shave our domes. They knicked their
razors up trying to separate the bris-
ties from Dawes marble slab.
