Increased Prosperity Will Be
0ccasionad by Heavy De-
mand for Wheat
HELP TO BUSINESS
American Manufacturers Will
Profit Through Greatly In
creased Exports

Chicago, H., July "a general Eu-
ropean war will bring breatly increas-
ed prosperity to the American farmer
and at the same time stimulate busi-
ness activity in the United States in
nearly every line, according to 5. A.
Carver, commercial agent of the bu-
reau of foreign and domestic com
merce located here.
Ever since the new crop of wheat
became available there have been
enormous sales of wheat for export to
Europe" Carver said on Tuesday.
SHOULD war really come i'm Europe,
the crops there now ready to be har-
vested would be devastated; there
would be tremendous demand for
American grains and the price paid
the American farmer would jump cor
respondingly."
Austria already has bought several
cargoes of American wheat because of
the partial failure of the Hungarian
crop. The outlook for the Russian
crop, which normally supplies nearly
and should Russia be plunged into war
all Europe would make heavy demands
upon America for wheat, u demand
that might well be met out of the rec
ord breaking crop this year.
Indicating the Importance grain
brokers attach to the situation in Eu-
rope. wheat prices jumped sharply
early Monday on war talk. Later in the
day, when it seemed that the war
would be localized, prices dropped.
American manufacturers, Carver de-
clared on Tuesday, should nearly
double their exports in case of a gem
eral engagement in Europe. Flying a
neutral flag, American ships could en-
ter any European port, providing a
blockade was not in progress, he said
while ships of European nations in
volved could be seized and their cargo
confscated.

criticized Austria's policy toward the
Balkan states while confesslng that,
since war had come, Hungarians would
Loyalty support the empire.
If Austria had pursued a policy OF
directly helping the Balkan countries.
if Austria had in the past made it
point to he actively their friend, this
war would not confront u.s." the Hun
garian said with vehemence. Since it
will support the empire and internal
differences will be dismissed while
the empire is imperilled.
AS for the loyalty of the many
Serbs within Austro- Hungary II is
hard TO say. But the Austrian policy
toward the Balkan countries has been
all wrong.
Count Karolyi will sail Wednesday.
He spoke this afternoon at a big meet
ing of Hungarians in Passaic. The
meeting elected him honorary president
of an alliance to which 10000 Hun
garians in this country belong. Also
$4,000 was pledged on the spot to aid
Count Karolyis faction in Hungary.
That the Hungarians will sustain
the empire in the war was confirmed
by Alexander Konta, who attacked Bit
terly the Servian policy Of the past.
At the Austro- Hungarian consulate
it was stated that no notification of
war being declared has been received,
nor had notice to call upon army re-
servists in this country arrived from
the Austrian ambassador, DR.. Dumba.
Natives OF Austro- Hungary in the
United States number of 100000. OF
these all able bodied men between the
ages of 10 and AZ are supposed to an
swer the empires call for reserves.
Paul NJ. Pavolvitch. in charge of
tho Servian consulate, said that
5000 Serbs went over to fight in the
Balkan war. Only about 1000 Serbs
in this country are. natives of Servia.
he said, and there are somewhere
around 100000 American Serbs who are
natives of Austria. These he believes
will nearly all espouse Servia's cause.

spiracy to commit the crime of man

The community generally will enjoy
the greatest benefits from the forma-
tion and operation of this company,
but in the estimation of those familiar
with the history of such enterprises,
the investors also will enjoy good
return on their investment for they
will share in any profits the new in
dustries may yield.
Committees Are Selected.

the new company was taken when a
committee of seven, Edward II. Cuddi-
by, William j. Galbraith, William IL.
Faucet, Frank II. Carlton, Edward ;.
Grierson, James Il. Fisher and Edward
Ulseth, was selected for the purpose
of dividing the community into dis
tricts and naming committees for each

sent the holding company project to
as many citizens as possible and re-
ceive subscriptions for shares. This
committee will take up its work at
once and the canvass, which will be as
complete as possible, will be completed
as rapidly as possible. Subscriptions

ly received, workingmen as well as
business and professional men being
included.

University OF France has published
detailed and elaborate estimates. From
them he concludes that the daily ex-
pense of the actual campaign would be
something like $54,OOO.0OO
DR.. Richet bases his estimates on the
assumption that, roughly. 2O,OOO.OOO
men, would be called 10 arms of whom
at least half would be sent to the
front. on this basis he works out the
daily expenditures for the seven pow
ers as follows. The figures being here
rendered into dollars:

The present Russian mobilization or
