not suffer greatly from such a fan,
nre, If past profits are figured in.
But there are always weak spots
where one failure drags in train Of
others, where the shaky concern is
forced to the wall by the loss Of a
single credit.
The lesson of these mischances
should be clear to the average busi.
ness man. 1t happens over and over
solid ASSETS have to be sold for a
song, simply because creditors want
their money and won't wait. A bus
mess is strong only when it has quick
assets in liquid form, enough to
pay the debts that may be called for

Friedrich Won BuelOW, a
Nominal War Prisoner,
Has Liberty.
BEGS FOR SILENCE
ABOUT HIMSELF
Agent Of German Armament
Makers Never Even a Visitor
in Detention Camp.

London. Nov. II. Despite the in
ccssant agitation against German spies
add the alleged strinRency Of the Home
Offices policy toward alien enemies.
a no less important parsonage than the
agent Of Krupp's in England is going
about London. and has been since the
third day OF the war. practically at will.
This man is Friedrich Won Buelow,
brother of Prince Won Buelow, for
mer Chancellor OF the German Empire.
Won Bueow's reasons for lingering in
London have never been explained pub
licly although questions about MIN have
been asked IN the House Of Commons.
Nor has IL ever been told what mys-
terious influence has gained for him
immunity from detention in q concen-
traton camp and has permitted him to
continue living comfortably IA the
large villa he occupies IN Fast Putney.
He is even permitted to retain the use
OF his telephone, although ii has been
officially announced that all telephone
service in houses in which alien enc
mics reside has been cut oil long ago.
A correspondent called up Won Buc-
low last night and rs tho result Of a
brief conversation the kwpp agent
visited the corrcsDondent's Office this
morning. lie is tall and distinguished
looking, about sixty years old, and
speaks with a decided German ac-
cent His pale face and nervous man
ner betray the strain he is under even
more than the panic-stricken words m
which he besought the correspondent
not 70 make public the facts Of his
case.
One of the first questions put to
him was how he could come from East
Putney, distance of more than ten
miles. in view Of the regulation pro
hibiting alien enemies from travelling
beyond q fve-mile radius Of their
abode without special permission.
"My movements are comparatively
unhindered now" Won Buelow stated.
Ten hours after war was declared /
was arrested and held in police sta
tion for forty-eight hours. My house
was searched from top 10 bottom. or
course no incriminating documents
were found. and ! was re- eased after
giving my word of honor lhot ! would
DO nothing 10 endanger the safety or
the British Empire.
The authorities convinced tnem-
selves that I am 2 gentleman and a
man of honor and would never violate
my parole. so J have been treated with
the utmost kindness. Il is impossible
for me TO make any comment on the
manner i'm which Germans have been
treated in England for fear that | may
draw attention 20 my own case. ! am
in q perilous position. and any pub
licitv would do me great harm. 80
can only beg that you will say nothing
about me. | made many requests to be
allowed 20 20 70 America, and the
American Embassy has done every
thing possible 10 assist me. but these
requests have been refused, and al
though am allowed considerable lib
erty ! am still practically prisoner
or war and must remain So
Won Buelow said he had no personal
knowledge Of British detention camps
as he had never been in one, but that
he thought the stories from Germany
Of the harsh treatment Of German
prisoners in England probably eXag-
eerated.

HOME MARKET FOR
BRITISH WAR LOAN
London Believes This 10
Be Possible-AmeriCa
Sure 10 Profit.

Londol. Nov. Financial London
expressed confidence to-day that what
ever bonds or other obligations, glgan-
sic though they msy be, when the
British government Will shortly issue
TO meet war neels gill be assimllated
on this side. According to one financial
authority consulted by your CORE
spondent, even many Jaraucse bonds
recently subscribed IN the United
States have found their way to London.
But il is clearly realized tnat large
sums Of whatever loans the belligerent
governments may float will eventually
be expended in the United States. and
a further shifting OF the rate OF eX-
change in favor of America IS pre-
dicted.
In addition TO these heavy war pur-
chases, foreign investors are looking
in the present circumstances with M
creasng favor upon American Securi-
ties, and surprise is felt that such IN
vestments as New Iork's last issue OF
short term notes were not better ad-
vertised on this side. where It IS con
sidered that Il responsive market would
have been found.

ARCHITECTS MOURN
WAR HAVOC ON ART
n. Y. League DeploreS the
Ruin of Famous Old
Buildings in Europe.

The Architectural League OF New
York passed a resolution last night de
ploring the destruction Of great archi-
tectural triumphs in the European war
zone and expressing the hope that in
future pains would be taken to leave
unimpared others that may come with
in the scene Of operations.
The leagues officers said they were
particularly anxious not 10 violate
President Wilson's injunction 10 Amer
leans to preserve strict neutrality. Cass
Gilbert, who presided. and Thomas
Hastings. who presented the resolution.
are both members Of the National Art
Commission, and thus are representa-
tives Of the government.
The advance notices OF the meeting,
which read, mo greater crime against
art has been perpetrated in civilized
times than the Smelling Of the Rheims
7 Cathedral and the dropping Of bombs
on Notre Dame also said, Members
are respectfully reminded that the pro-
posed resolution of protest viii not
imply lack Of neutrality on the part Of
/ any American. As lovers OF art we
wish TO protest against any and all
countries desecrating word-lamous
works Of art in times OF war
The resolution was passed unanimous
/ ly, but member suggested that the
executive committee look il over before
il was given out for publication. As all
OF the members of the committee were

out as il passed, in this form:
/ Whereas. In. the midst of the hOr-
rors of the present war in Europe
stand many historic monuments that,
owing TO the deadly character of mod
ern armament, are exposed 70 the
greatest danger that has ever menaccd
them; and,
whereas, Owing 10 the superior
education and intelligence of modern
military officers. the world had reason
10 hone that these monuments would

and.
"Whereas. Notwithstanding this ad-
vanced civilization, one Of the most
conspicuous examples Of Gothic art.
the Cathedral Of Rheims, the integrity
of which was respected for 700 years,
g today the victim OF serious dls-
fguIement which can never be etaeed;
and.
"Wbereas. TO restore the structure
further than TO roof it and merely pre-
serve what is now left, even though
done in good faith. would be a tur-
ther calamity, for as we can no longer
work in the spirit Of its times we could
not give back to the world this great
monument in its original glory, now

"Be il resolved, That the Architectural
League of New York voices ITS most
profound regret FOR the dire misiort-

Washington. Nov. 17.--When Ambas-
sador Herrick gives up the French
mission AZ the END of this month IL
is understood that he will come TO

President Wilson about conditions
abroad.
Henry van Dyke. who already has
left Holland. is the only other Ameri-

at this time. Mr.. van Dyke asked for
leave on account Of his health. and al
though there have been reports from
Holland that he has q special peace

any steps to arrange for mediation.
