Coroner Burgess Is puzzled by the
absence Of all inquiries about an un-
Identified woman, about 32 years old,
weu-dressed In black, and of appar-
ent refinement. who was knocked
down and fatally injured by an auto
driven by Arthur L. Swank, of Royal
Oak. at Fort and Griswold-sts., early
Sunday evening.
The woman died as she was being
taken into st. Mary's hospital, her
skull being fractured.
Swank. a salesman for the Long
Mafg. Co.. 80 years old, was arrested
by Patrolmen Bunting and Felten-
TRACER, on charge Of reckless driv-
ing, which may be changed to man
slaughter. He was released, Sunday
night, on bail bond signed by
Harry Andrews, former police Sec
retary. and accepted by Judge Con-
molly.
Clues to the dead woman's identi-
ty are furnished by a gold bracelet,
engraved with the initials "L. g."
and q signet ring. with the initial
"E." He purse contained $3.50.
Swank told the police that he had
stopped to allow traffic to 20 north
and south on Griswold-st., and Just
az he started his machine. the wo-
man stepped from the curb In front
Of him. He says that he stopped his
auto within four feet.

EXCHANGE OPENS
Market Steady and Feeling
Hopeful, As Business is
Resumed

NEW YORK. Nov. 16.-The New
York cotton exchange opened for
business today promptly at 10 O'Clock
as scheduled. II was the first time
business has been done on the ex-
change since suspension on July 80,
caused by the European war.
The market was steady at the open
ing. and the feeling was hopeful. The
first trade. was In December, S7.45.
compared with $10.75 when business
was suspended. The price coincided
with expressions Of optimism over
the fact that the cotton exchange
opening was unattended by anything
but normal conditions In that market.
Many brokers termed today's resump-

toward restoration of normal business
conditions since the war began.

ENGLAND WAITS
IN SORROW FOR
BODY OF "BOBS''
Great Soldier Died Amid Sound
Of Gums, With the British
Army IN Flanders
PREACHED PREPAREDNESS
FOR MANY YEARS
Believed That War Might Have
Been Averted Had His Ad-
vice Been Followed

LONDON, Nov. 16.-England today
awaited In sorrow the body of "Bobs.
1t is expected that today or tomorrow
the remains Of Lord Roberts will
reach Folkstone from France, where
he died among the British troops, lit,
orally giving up his life for one more
visit among his beloved Indian troops
Funeral services for the late hero OF
the South African war and field mar.
shall will probably be held at St
Paul's, where those Of Wellington,
Nelson, and other British heroes have
been held. Reports have been circu.
lated, however. that Lady Roberts
desires private funeral and that
burial will be at All Saints church,
Ascot and not Westminster abbey.
With Earl Roberts lost to the ma.
tion, one Of the questions being dis
cussed by Englishmen today is wheth-
er the present war might have been
averted had his advice as to army
matters been followed. For years
"Bobs" constantly preached coAscrip-
tion, travelling from one end of Eng
land to the other, urging that Eng
land maintain q great army.
He regarded great conflict newt
able and insisted that England's best
assurance of continued peace would
be a great army. He practically pre-
dicted the present war, but his mill
tary fanaticism In constantly urging
transcription made him rather unpopu.
lar. with the outbreak of the present
conflict, however, Lord Roberts imme-
diatcly rose to the position Of ma
tional hero and II is an open question
with Englishmen whether Germany
would have entered upon the war had
England been ready with an efficient
fighting force. Lord Roberts criticism
was frank and open In his declara-
tions that England was not prepared
for war. Messages Of coincidence
have been sent Lord Roberts widow
and daughter by King George, Gen.
Sir John French. and others have ar
rived from all parts Of the empire.

MONEY PANICS
GONE FOREVER,
SAYS M'ADOO
Federal Reserve Banks Open
Doors Today for First Time
All Ready For Business
HAVE POWERS UNIQUE
IN BANKING HISTORY
Standardization Of Commercial
Paper Among Immediate Good
Results Expected

WASHINGTON. Nov. 16-Financial
panics in the United States are a
thing Of the past.
This was the position taken today
by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
and the members Of the federal re-
serve board. Their advices from the
~ cities In which the new federal re-
serve banks threw open their doors
today for the first time indicated that
every preparation had been made for
the good work by these institutions.
Through them the federal reserve
board hopes and believes Il will be
able to adjust. shift and mobilize the
finances Of the country SO that q finan-
cial panic, with it's resultant disaster,
will be impossible hereafter.
The new regional banks opened ac-
cording to set program. Not all had
permanent quarters, and some were
doing business with borrowed STATS.
But they started out with the most
remarkable powers Of any banks ever
established IN the United States and
they will, the officials here declare, 30
manipulate the national finance that
there will always be a flowing stream
of currency moving steadily from
point to point In the country so that
hereafter the so-called Wall-st. banks,
with their big city" connections. can
not corner the supply and so force the
rural banks to pay high premiums for
needed cash.
II Is Also declared that with the
new banks In existence there Is pos
sible for the first time In the United
States q definition of what really In
commercial paper. The regulations
for the reserver board and the opera
tion of the banks they control. will,
1t is claimed. legitimize commercial
transactions and clear up much that
jn the past has been debatable ground
between the banker and the legitimate
borrower
