CAMERA MAN GOES TO FRONT.

Harry Palmer, thk weIl-known cartoon
ist and war c0rfespondent, sailed toI
Europe early. last week in. the interests
Of David Horzley and the Centaur Film
Company, OF Basonne. n. J.
Mr. Palmer ptrposed to make directly
for Liege. and should by this time have
reached his destination. 1t was his IN
tention 10 get on the firing line with one
Of the yregiments engaged. and then 70
make 4 series OF sketches Of the actual
combat. These sketches are TO be ar
ranged in consecutive order, and will be
vhot6grapked so as to make split-reel
and ffu1l-reel subjects.
NJ palmer and his two assistants
salded fer Europe last Saturday, under
assumed names. A scheme has been de-
ytsed whereby the sketches may be pass
ID successfully by the war censors and
flushed 20 this country. The first SUBJ
feet, II all plans carry, should reach the
'Centaur studios the latter part OF Sep
ternber. The Siege OF Liege" will be the
first OF the series. Sketches Of the scenes
and mighty forts concerned in this
frightful conflict were completed from
photographs before Mr.. Palmer left
America Some of the actual battle
grounds. with their ruined battlements,
abandoned machinery Of war, heaps of
dead soldiers and horses, etc, exactly
as they now appear, will be shown.
Immediately after the Liege pictures
have been completed Mr.. Palmer win
force his way to the scene Of whatever
big military engagement may then be
in progress. and will, as long as he is
fortunate enough to dodge promiscuous
bullets, continue this line of action. In
this manner Mr.. Palmer will keep abreast
of the advancement Of the war, and the
Centaur Film Company. barring the
miscarriage of any of the consignments
Of the sketches, will issue the series in
proper order as rapidly as they can be
filmed and released.
Mr.. Horsley and all those who are inti-
mately acquainted with Harry Palmer feel
confident of his being able to carry out
MS plans.
Mr.. Palmer, who is known to newspaper
readers everywhere as the author and
artist of the Babbling Bess comics. is one
Of the most distinguished war correspond
ents in the world. During the Boxer up
rising in China he represented a syndicate
Of American newspapers, and his bravery
and daring made him the most successful
war correspondent at the front. As a re-
suit Mr. PaImer's services were very
much in demand at the outbreak OF the
Spanish-American war, and he gave up
his cartoon work to represent New
York syndicate of magazines in Cuba
In that memorable campaign Mr.. Palmer
was constantly on the firing line, and the
remarkable resourcefulness he exercised
in getting his stun home" will stand
him in great stead in the difficulties which
now confront him.
In attempting so daring and original a
proposition, David Horsley has offered
further example of the progressive spirit
and manner of calling the future turn
that have made him one Of the ablest and
most respected film men in America
There can be little doubt that he means
TO make his new scheme Of seven releases
a week succeed from progressive EFFORT
and sheer merit

BRINGS $3.50 FROM EUROPE.
LaeOnIa Arrives At Boston with
Record Cargo of Refugees.

Boston. Sept. s.-With a record number
Of Passengers, the Cunard liner Laconia
arrived today. bringing $50 persons from
Europe. The liner was painted gray. OFF
the Irish coast her commander was
given a course by a French cruiser and
did not sight a vessel the rest OF the
way.
Many of the passengers had interesting
stories to tell Of their experiences in the
war zone. A party of tourists from
Plainfield. n. j., headed by A. V. ID.
Honeyman, were enroute from Warsaw
to Vienna when the war broke out. They
had to hire a farmers cart to take them
across the frontier. A bridge they found
spiked so that It was impossible for a
horse to cross. This was done to prevent
cavalry crossing. They finally crossed
the stream by hauling the wagon over
the spikes and making the horse swim.

supply. pH.-......-.......--........... Ss5.19 E,S,A
In the yeah ended August 81, 1913, our
exports were S,sOO.s66 bales In the pre-
ceding year, when 1O,6Sl. 75S bales were
exported, the outgoing total was more
than twice the above estimates for the
year ending with next August. 1t is true
that a large proportion of spindles has
stopped on the continent of Europe But
it is also true that the worlds leading
spinning center In Lancashire Is bound
TO occupy itself with the consumption
OF cotton for the needs OF England and
its colonies. as we'll as for other mar
kets in which II has established trade
unless the war cuts down the force Of
employees.
The price factor will be an important
one in the spinning demand In the
United States and Great Britain a low
price OF s or cents is sure 10 result in
accumulation OF reserve wherever condi-
tions will allow of 1t. There is money
for cotton in the great spinning coun-
tries, and the low price will tempt pur-
chases for future needs. 1t should be
remembered that the worlds invisible
reserve Of cotton is pretty well drained.
and the suspension OF consumption will
afford an opportunity to build up that
surplus at low prices.
Winter Hat supply short.
Nearly everything that goes to make up
derby hats, as well as soft, velour and
some other hats, according to manufact-
urers and importers, is markedly affected
by the war. Although they say there is
no cause for alarm II Is admitted that
the supply Of hatters' materials is short.
that the prices OF the better grades of
hats will have to be increased and that
maybe blues and greens and browns In
dyes will give way to lighter shades and
pearls this winter.
The shortage in supplies, due to the
war, affects hatters' furs and dyes,
principally, but also shellac for stiffen-
ing, trimmings OF bands and braids. and,
even sweat bands. Several big manu-
featuring plants have closed down tenn
porarily at least
Some Of the large manufacturers have
supplies on hand to last them about six
months or perhaps a little longer, but
a normal season would probably exhaust
most Of the general supply in three
months. Hatters are even considering
substituting wooden and cloth soft hats
perhaps stiffening them-for the derbfes
and soft felt and velour hats. but that
extreme may not be necessary It is hoped
by them.
Practically everything that the hat
manufacturer needs" said a representa-
tive OF a hat company yesterday. comes
from the countries now at war. Dyes
