Profit In Refined SUGAR.

Facts About Sugar is a small
monthly published in New York which
seems to be genuinely what it says,
Devoted to American Sugar Produc-
ton"
This little paper, for the month Of
August, says that the margin of the
refners since the new tariff law be-
came operative March 1, 1914, and
which reduced the duty on raw sugar
.33 cent pound, has averaged 81
cents a hundred pounds, while for
a similar period previous to the reduc-
tion of the tariff the average was 81
cents; at the same time producers
have been receiving % cents hun
dred pounds less for their crop since
the reduction Of the tariff. Approx
mately,' says the writer, three
fourths of this reduction has gone d.
rectly INTO the pockets of the little
handful of sugar refiners."
1t is asserted that this means a
clear addition of 20 cents hundred
pounds to the refiners, which, on the
S,000,000,000 pounds consumed in the
United States annually, would mean a
profit of S16.00O,000!
From October, 1913, to March l.,
1914, the maximum Of the margin of
the reflners was $50 cents per 100
pounds, which was in December, 1918,
and the minimum, in February, 1914
was All. In the first month after
the reduced tariff went into effect
the average margin was S4.2, in April
it was 1873, in May 70-9, in June S2.7,
and in July 92.6: but since July, in
the weeks of August that have passed,
the profits of the reflners must have
been much more.

No Action Taken.

Washington. Sept "A coalition OF
Bulgaria and Turkey to join the Euro
pean war on the side of Germany is
regarded as imminent by diplomats
following the mobilization Of the Turk
ish army and the request of Great
Britain, received, that the United
States represent her in the Ottoman
empire If the porte declares war on
the allies.
The entrance Of Turkey into the
conflict would bring Italy in on the

Turkey Arms 100000.
1t is announced that the Turkish
government, following the advice of
Field Marshal Baron Won der Goltz,
will form an army of the first line
composed Of 100000 Mohammedans.
Seventy-two German officers have
been commissioned in the Turkish
army.
The Turkish ambassador, A. Rus
tenn Bey, foreshadowed a Bulgar-Turk
alliance when he declared that a COM
mittee had been formed before the
war to further the interests Of the two
countries in common, saying that the
community Of interests between the
two people made this imperative.

the war office declared, although the
allied battle line has neen pushed back
again.
Fresh French troops we're poured
into the battle line to help STAY the

terry even being transformed into 8

Plan Attack On Germans.
Antwerp, Sept. Am attack on
the German rear and line of commune
cations by the allied forces in Bel
GUM is believed to be imminent. The
British have been pouring troops in
an unknown number into Ostend, and
the Belgians have a large army In
side the Notifications here. These
forces, united. would be a serious
menace to the German rear, weakened
by the return Of several army corps
to face the Russian invasion.
King Holds Conference.
There is great activity in the con-
centration camps just outside the for
tifications King Albert held a long
conference with his general staff, and
there is an air of mystery about all
proceedings. This is believed to mean
that the army is about to take the
field again.
The Belgian cavalry has resumed
its activity and has definitely located
the German headquarters at (deleted
by CENSOR. Most of the German
troops either have gone into France
or have been recalled to Germany and
many Belgian cities are not occupied
by the invaders.
$4,000 Germans Killed.
Communication by both rail and
wire has been opened between Client
and Grammont and the field seems
open fer blow at the Gern-a rail-
way and telegraph lines. Censorship
on movements in Belgium and disposi-
ton Of British troops has frightened,

A dispatch from Middlekerke, Hol1

arrived from Mons declares that the
Germans lost $4,000 killed in e single
day at the battle of Cambria.

PecpIe No Longer Have Confidence Ia

!. Herds. i

!. In New York Mr.. Roosevelt hasJ re-
undated Mr.. Human, and Sonce more
is astraddle the sadly emaciated Bull
Moose. The attack of strabismus has
passed 1t was impossibleIto boss two
political parties at the same time,
even though one had nothing but
name and few subordinate seaders
left.
Why is it that the Importance Of
Roosevelt has become SO inconse-
quential? The roaring Of the lion was
of no interest to the sheep In Maine.
They yawned or got no nearer than
the war bulletins. Nobody seems to
care who or what the great tribune OF
oppoI tlnism supports. The yocahu-
larry of his excoriation is not exhaust
cd. The old parties are still filled
with bosses who must be- driven out
There is not an ism thai was capital
lied in 1912 that is not just as good
fly paper as ever. But the flies stay
away. They will not be coaxed.
There are many reasons for the DIM
mutton of the Roosevelt hysterla.
It is the war, however. that has
eclipsed his star. Goods citizens can
not help being thankful that there is
not war lord in the White House.
The horror occasioned by the Euro
pean catastrophe is deepseated- The
public depreciates war talk and It's
aversion extends to all who have be-
come associated In the general mind
with war; The blare Of atrumpets has
lost it's attractiveness. Most Ameri-
cans believe that Roosevelt In the
White House would have meant war
with Mexico, most of them are sure
that were he president the danger of
our becoming embroiled in the cata-
cylsm abroad would be far greater
than it is. This implies lack OF
confidence.
The fact that the war has kept
Roosevelt off the front pages does not
explain the clogging Of his progress.
The psychology of the times Is against
his advancement. He Is the victim
4 Of events.

French Cabinet Meets


Paris, Sept. l2.-Meeting in extraof-
binary session, the cabinet considered
the question OF removing the seat
of government from Paris in case
the, capital is besieged. The mat
ter was left undecided because of an
encouraging report from Minister Of
War Millerand, who stated that the
situation seemed to have improved at
the front.
II 1t is decided that the government
will be taken from. Paris 1t will be
shifted to either Marseilles or Bor-
deaux. The latter town was selected
in the Franco Prussian war, but Mar
settles Is considered now because of
the fact that the archives, if neces-
sary, might be taken to Algiers from
there end remain on French territory.
At the conclusion Of the cabinet
meeting NJ Malyy, minister OF the in
terror, said:
Things look brighter. Paris is now
passing through a period of suspense
unparalleled for more than forty
years, but is quietly hoping for the
best 1t will be long war and we
must make the greatest sacrifices, but
we shall win in the end"
The rush to escape the ordeal of
the siege began when the gates
of the railroad stations were opened.
Thousands Of women and children
had waited all night in order to
be sure to get aboard tae first
trains out Soldiers had eherded them
into long lines that wouaa in and out
in the streets about the stations. A
few, fortunately, had been able to Sc
cure stools or chairs, but those less
fortunate had been compelledsto sit or
lie upon the street pavement as they
maintained their vigil.

sldeIiaht on Trust Problem.

The trusts are not the chief sinners
Just now in unwarranted price boost
ing. That bad eminence is held by
untrustitied dealers, who see IN the
war a chance to reap where they have
not sowed, and get rich by imposing
needless and wicked burdens on the
poor
If a sad proportion of us did not
secretly envy the trustssand wish we
could emulate their bQcaneering, those
predatory. and oppressive organiza-
lions never could have gained a foot

Boulogne, Sept, My passports

American passports are Of the great
est advantage, because the German
officers everywhere show oonsidera-

fighting and have passed through

There had been sharp engage.
ment at Nimy. The town had been
completely DESTROYED, not by shell fire,
but by the Germans as retaliation for
shipping. Innocent inhabitants some
times suffer terribly when the French
army evacuates a town, slowly re-
treating and fighting as it goes. The
streets and bridges are frequently
mined and a detachment Of sharp
shooters placed in the houses. AS the
invading Germans swarm through the
narrow streets and over the bridges
these mines are exploded by contact
wires placed by the skillful French
engineers, while from the houses there
pours a perfect hail Of shot
10000 Lost in Four Days.
II have accompanied only one of the
three great German armies advancing
into France. But in this one an army
officer estimated that in the last four
days of fighting there must have
been 10000 killed, wounded and pris-
oners on both sides.
Undoubtedly the German losses
are the heaviest, because they con-
stantly fight in the open, advancing
in solid masses against an enemy in
entrenched positions"
Third Air Attack On Paris.
Paris, Sept. "A third daring aero
plane raid on Paris was made in the
evening by German air scout. Three
bombs were dropped, but with no cas-
ualties.
Paris has been thrown into terror
by these successive invasions by Ger
man flyers. They have been of daily,
occurrence. On Sunday three bombs
were dropped into Paris; Monday one
projectile plunged into the heart of
the city, but failed to explode, and the
third attack came between and
$50 o'clock.
An official coTnnunique issued at
midnight says that a squadron of ar
mored aeroplanes has been organized
in order to prevent further bomb
throwing by German aviators flying
over Paris.
1t was officially announced later
that the American committee. headed
by Ambassador Herrick, requested the
minister OF war to furnish proofs that
the bombs exploded IN Paris were
dropped by German airmen.
On receiving these proofs the Amer
lean ambassador cabled to Washing
ton, protesting strongly. He said:
This is an absolute violation of The
Hague convention signed by Ger
many"
The committe further decided 20
ask the American government to pro
test most eaergetically against the
German government for this act
against humanity.
