DYNAMITE ICE
TO RELEASE SHIPS
Two Vessels Have Been Ice-bound in
Lake Michigan Since Thursday
Morning People on Board
Reported Safe

Chicago, Feb l4,--Dynamite may be
used to-day in an attempt to liberate
two steamships which have been ice
bound in Lake Michigan off Chicago har-
Dor since early Thursday morning.
Should dynamite fail to open passage
which would permit the steamers to
reach port, an effort probably will be
made to transfer the passengers and
crew across the ice to the shore
The vessels are the Arizona OF the
Goodich Transit company and the Kan
sas of the Northern Michigan Trans
portation company. Fears are expressed
that the pressure of the lee against the
boats may result seriously. The own
ers, however, insist that the vessels are
in no danger and that those on board
have plenty of provisions.

BURNED LAST COAL BUNKER.
Steamer Lord Antrim Reached Halifax,
NJ S., Just in Time.

Halifax, n. S., Feb. l4.-Burning the
last of the sweepings of her coal bunk
ers, the British tramp steamer Lord
Antrim arrived here last night. The
steamer, which was 26 days out of Mar
vik, Norway, for Philadelphia, had en-
countered such terrific weather as to use
up every bit of fuel in her bunkers.
Captain Aiken said preparations had
been made to reach port. Ice sheathed
the vessel from stem to stern, it was
necessary to apply steam to the wind
lass before the Lord Antrim's anchors
could be dropped. She will take on
supply of coal here and proceed.

AMPUTATIoN NECESSARY.
To Save Policeman Carle's Life-Patient
Somewhat Easier.

Attendants at the City hospital this
afternoon stated that Officer George
X. Carle seemed to be resting easier to-
day than at any time since he was
found in a half frozen condition near
Blackwell street early Thursday morn
ing. He is conscious and is now able to
retain nourishment.
Physicians attending the officer de-
cided to-day that amputation must be
made in the near future if the mans
life is to be saved. Both feet are to
be taken off just above the ankles and
each hand must be ampitated at
the wrist. 1t is believed that the op-
Grafton will be performed tomorrow or
Monday. The patient is still in a crit
ical condition, but the doctors say he
has a chance for recovery if gangrene
or other developments do not follow.
Several days must elapse before the
outcome ofs0flicer Carries experience can
be forecasted. Members OF his family
are at the bedside almost constantly.

During the forenoon the snow gave way

MetropoI tan exhibit, and from finan-
cial standpoint one of the most success
tuI. ninety-eight cars being sold on the
show floor during the past week.
1t is believed that the exhibit has been
placed in the local show with the OBJ
iect of securing a dealer in this town
cara5le of handling such a line of cars.
The sales manager of the ReSa. Motor
Car Company has stated that he has
to offer to a local dealer an attractive
proposition for the introduction II the
cars in this city.
An interesting test which has been
applied to this underslung type of car
is seen in the accompanying photograph:
The automobile is tilted at an angle of
55 degrees, yet it is practically impossi-
BILE to upset it. This assures safety in
driving and especially in cross-country
touring.
This interesting display of Regal cars
will not fail to draw the attention of
the automobile owners of this city. and
should prove a very good thing for the
manufacturers.

the car is by washing. The car should
be thoroughly showered with plenty of

(By AssocIated press.l

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Further re-
laxtion In money rates today with
numerous over-year loans nogotiat-
ed at 6 per cent. testified to the in
crcasing supply of cash here. Some
sixty day loans were reported at p
shade under per cent, while call
money also manifested an easier
trend. All these contracts were Sc
cured by high class collateral. Say
ings banks and other institutions, in
cluding the prominent insurance
companies, are said to be lending
more freely, which Wall Street ac-
cepts as additional proof of increas-
Ing confidence. In stock exchange
circles, however, sentiment remains
pessimistic. The sale of an exchange
membership at $4,000, the lowest
price In many years, measures the
depth OF the depression in that quar-
ter.
The foreign exchange market was
perfunctory affair, with rates on
London virtually unchanged from
yesterdays average level.
In the investment field, brokers
found more activity in various short
term. note Issues and high grade
bonds, the new city notes being In
fair demand at previous high prices.
Dealings In some OF the active stocks
listed on the exchange were made
at further concessions. These trans-
actions indicated extreme necessity
On the part OF the sellers. The un-
official market In which these sales
were made still is looked at askance.

day. and in the main these were
granted. This factor, however, is
likely to play an important part i'm
the outcome of the cotton plan. Elk
ports OF cotton fell of pronouncedly
