WINGED her that she is right in her
belief. The first Mrs. Morgan fired

GREAT ACTIVITY

WALL STREET
Loans Are Made at Lower
Rates of Interest and New
York City Bonds Are Bought
on Old time Basis,

New York. Nov. 6.-Two develop.
ments Of distinct significance were re-
corded in the financial situation to-
day. One was the rather free lending
| of six months money AZ "a per cent
on mixed collateral as against the
long standing 6 per cent rate, and the
other was the sale of the New York
city 0 per cent three-yea notes, which
were issued at par al price to yield
only 4.0S per cent. incidentally COM
mercial paper was accepted for the
shorter periods at fraction under 6
per cent.
In line with this general improve
ment II was also learned that the
stock exchange authorities Will. with
in short time, order the removal of
certain restrictions which have oper-
sted against the purchase and sale of
high class securities. 1t is not inn
piled. however, that anything like reg
ular operations will be permitted.
Dealings in listed and unlisted
bonds and notes were said to have
approximated $2.000.1O0 par value.

prominent railway companies were in
active request at prices returning
from 4 " to per cent. Listed stocks
were higher in the unofficial market,
and on the curb majority of the
standard oil issues were quoted at
prices above July 30 closing quota
tions.
There was more than the usual di-
vergence of opinion respecting the
weekly cash movement, but on the
surface it would appear that local
banks have lost considerable sums to
the sub-treasury. 1t remains to be
seen whether this loss will be large
enough to efface the railroads cash
reserves built up during the preceding
fortnight
Bank clearings of the country show
little betterment, except in the agri-
cultural sections and certain manu- |
featuring centers whose industries
have benefited by sales of merchan- |
disc to the warning nations. Cotton
continued to be one of the chief ar
ticles of export, but the sharp ad-
vance in marine war risks has had a
marked tendency toward the curtaii-
ment of shipments 10 all foreign |
points.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
TAKES ACTIVE HAND

Washington. Nov 6. - Further
spread Of the livestock foot and
mouth disease has caused the extern
sion of the federal quarantine to Mas
sachusetts and Iowa. Reports at the
department Of agriculture announced
the discovery Of the epidemic at South
Attleboro Bristol county, Mass, and
at Parnellia. the first case west of the
Mississippi. Cattle, sheep and hogs
now cannot be moved out OF Michi-
gan, Indiana. Illinois, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania. Maryland, New York. Massa-
chusetts or Iowa.
In addition to the states already
quarantined, suspected case exists
at Como, Miss. where II is reported a
herd owner himself has contracted
the disease. The federal authorities
are advising state officials to impose
stringent quarantine against infected
sections and even to prevent children
from leaving the farms to attend
schools.
Hope was expressed today, on re-
ceipt of. reports of no new cases in
Indiana and Michigan. that the cpl
demic there had been placed under
control. On the other hand new cases
were found in Lancaster county,
PENNSYLVANIA. and in three more
counties in Illinois.
The spread of the disease makes
certain an increased cost OF putting
down the epidemic. II would not sur
prise officials IL the cost would be
nearer the $2.000,000 expended by the
German government to eradicate the
disease from among its cattle, few
years ago, than the $4,000 spent by
the American government in fighting
the 1908 outbreak Of the disease. The
expense of having inspectors trace the
various shipments from infected CEN
ters will be very large. Ten new in
spectors were rushed today to Wis
consin. Iowa and Massachusetts. De-
partment officials have suggested to-
the promoters of the Royal cattle
show. to be held at Kansas City this
fall. that the event should be post
poned.

japan Enters War.

Il was on August Is that Japan
threw herself into the European war
as an ally of Great Britain after de-
manding that Germany withdraw or
intern all German warships In Asiatic
waters and relnquish possession Of
Kiao-chow. In the statement from
Toxic that accompanied this demand
Japan asserted her intentions we're
purely military and did not contem-
plate the retention OF one foot OF
ground on Chinese territory and later
affirmed that she did not intend TO
extend her holdings in the island Of
the Pacific that might fall into her
possession during the campaign,
Her demands ignored. when The ul-
timatum expired a week later japan
proceeded cautiously with plans to
seize the German settlement on the
Chinese mainland.

Germany Loses Last Foot of
Possessions on Asiati(

Stubborn Defense,
FIRST REAL VICTORY
OF GREAT WORLD WAR
Allies Said to Have Paid
Heavily for Eiectment of
Kaiser From Stronghold in
Chinese Republic.

Toxic. Nov. : (ii;20 a. mD-It is
officially announced that the German
fortress OF Tsing-t tau has surrendered
to the Japanese and British forces.
II Is officially announced that the
first step In bringing about the sur
render Of the fortress occurred at
midnight. when the infantry charged
and occupied the middle fort OF the
line OF defense. In this operation they
took 2OO prisoners.
The Germans hoisted the white flag
at 7 o'clock this morning at the
weather observation bureau. The
quick capituIation OF the Germans
was the cause of much surprise and
JOY TO the men Of the army and navy
operating against il and also to the
people of Toxic.
The charge against the middle fort
was a brilliant one. 1t was led by
General Yoshlmi Yamada at the head
OF companies OF infantry and engi-
neers.

Japanese losses. which were large,
Ends Picturesque Phase.
The fall of Tsine-tsu ends the most
picturesque OF the minor phases of the
great world war now raging. ON two
continents and in many of the Islands
of the seas, where colonies of the
warning nations were planted. combats
of more or less interest have taken
place. garrisons have been captured
and towns occupied peacefully, but In
the little German concession on the
south side of the Shan-tung peninsula
of China there has been going on,
since late In August. a reduced scale
of war that from all accounts has du-
plicated nearly all the features of
those battles in Europe that have re-
suited In the capture Of fortified po-
sitions. The capture of Tslng-tau
loses to Germany her last foot OF pos
sessions on the Asiatic mainland as
well as her last strategic position out
side of the German empire in Europe.
Siege of Three Months.
For nearly three months the little
German garrison, amounting to about
1000 men and nearly wholly COM
posed of reservlsts. who were living |
Or doing business in China. has held |
out against the land and sea attacks

attachments OF both white and Indian
.roops that found themselves in China /
1t the outbreak Of the war. What |
he losses of the garrison have been
ire not known, but the official Jap

,ated that Tsing-tau has been taken

Inc operations III this isolated far
eastern theater Of the war have been
reduced to a scale Of some 200 square
miles, as compared with the whole
continent Of Europe. but on that ac-
count they have been none the less
interesting. Aeroplanes and all other

as compared with the little garrison
Of some 1000 men and the few Ger
man vessels at kiao-Chow was SO dis
