+. c. LOWRY Is BUSY AGAIN
CAMPAIGNING FOR FREE SUGAR

That the Federal Sugar iiefining
Company is continuing 10 campaign
for free sugar is shown by a circular
letter which has come into the pos
session of the Star-Bulletin. The let
ter is sent out over the signature OF
F. c. Lowry, manager OF the sales de-
partment of the Federal Company. 1t
will be remembered that Lowry fig
ured prominently in the ''insidious'
lobby" probe and that he was then
charged by the sugar producers with
trying to bring about free sugar so
that the refners could reap the prof
its of lower prices on the raw prod
uct.
The circular letter he sends out
says:
New York, n Y, June II. 1914.

pound as compared with an average
price for the last ten years OF 4.S5c

of Sc degree test raw sugars for the
same period has been &c per pound
The reduction in the duty combined
with the fact that the worlds produc-
ton this year is the largest on rec.
ord is responsible for the prevailing
low prices. but that the reduced tariff
is directly responsible for a large
part of the decline is shown by the
following comparison of prices be-
tween March LIST and June 1st, 1914.
with prices for other years when the
in-bond price of raw sugars was on
the same basis.

FORTS
 BEING EQUIPPED
War Department Does Not Like the Situation In China and Japan
 Is Preparing.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-A sensa- tion was caused here yesterday when the War department officials admit ted that the government was sending large quantities of war supplies and heavy siege guns to the forts in the Philippines and also sending equip ment and guns for provisional forts which are to be built at once.
 The statement of the department is that the conditions in the far east are unsettled and that the United States must be prepared It is ex- pressly denied that an unsatisfactory answer has been received from the Tokio government regarding the in- tentions of Japan in connection with the military operations in the Mar shall Islands and also in China. It is believed here, however, that the department has received information which leads the officials to believe that Japan not only intends to retain Kiao Chau, but also all of the is' lands in the Pacific ocean, which formerly belonged to Germany, and which would threaten the control of the Philippines by the United States, as they could be used as base for supplies and operations against the American shipping.

BRITISH STOP
 GERMAN EXPORTS
Will Not Allow Sugar To Be Sold In Markets of the WorId-Govern-
 ment Goes In the Business.

LONDON, Oct. 24.-The govern ment has stopped all importations of sugar to England and has requested the French government to do the same. This action was made neces- sary because of the fact that German sugar manufacturers have been ex- porting thousands of tons of sugar through the Holland and Danish ports and will use the money so secured for the purpose of carrying on the war.
 The British government has pur- chased large supplies of raw sugar and is having it~refined and will retail it to the people at a low cost. This sugar will all be brought from British colonies and from America in British boats, and thus will afford the people cheap sugar and the pro fits cannot be used against the Brit ish, as would be the case if German sugar were used.
 The government will also sell sug' ar at cost to the neutral countries now buying German sugar and thus prevent the sale of that commodity m Norway, Sweden, Denmark or Hol. land.

BURNSIDE HAS
 COMPLETED WORK
Two Bad Places On Military Cable Repaired-Cable Insulation
 Was Faulty.

The cableship Burnside has com pleted the work of overhauling and repairing the government military cable from Valdez to Seattle and has returned to the Spirit City. Two faults in the line were cut out and new pieces of cable spliced into the old line covering the bad sections, and tests made by Master Electrician Faust, of the Valdez cable office, and by the master electrician on the Burn side, showed that the line was in excellent condition, as an almost per feet insulation test resulted.
 One of the bad sections of the line was off Cape St. Elias. where the ocean bottom is rocky and the swing of the cable on the peaks along the bottom of the sea cuts the insule tion, causing leakage.
 Another bad place has been near Sitka, and here new cable for l5 miles was laid to replace the badly chafed line. The operators believe that the line will give as good ser vice now as when 1t was first laid.

 AMERICAN GOODS So Says Treasury Agent Now In New York-Reserve Board Holds
 Conference With Him.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The mem bers of the government reserve board held conference yesterday with En- voy Paish, the representative of the British treasury, who is in New York to arrange for a basis of exchange.
 The envoy told the bankers that his government would purchase cot. ton here of the value of several hun dred million dollars just as soon as they were convinced that the price of cotton had reached it's lowest level and not until that time also that the British government would place large orders in the United States for war supplies needed in France and that 1t was thus expected that the $20O,- 000,000 owing to English citizens by American corporations would be off- set and the shipment of gold to Flu rope need not be made.
 The balance of trade is now large ly in favor of the British people and the United States could be called up on to pay in gold what it owes to British subjects.
 The conference will be followed to- day by another and an adjustment will be made in a few days.

SAY STEEL TRUST
 WAS bENEFACT0R
Attorneys for Big Corporation Insist That They Saved the Small Man.
 ufacturer In 1907.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 24.-The at torneys for the Steel Trust maintain ed yesterday before the court that the Trust was national benefactor and that during the panic of 1907 the Trust had prevented ruin to the steel industry by holding up the prices and enabling the small operator to keep his head above water.
 This was done at the expense of many millions of dollars paid in in- terest for loans to carry the large amount of output of the mills which could not be sold.
 The attorneys for the Steel Trust also maintained that if it were not for the organization maintained by them and the reduction of cost by eliminating the many small jobbers that the big British and German steel trusts would soon control the mark cts of the United States.
 The government attorneys expect to show that the Trust has been selling to foreign consumers for 25 per cent. less than to American con- sumers and that the trust has forced many small steel concerns out of business.

Federal League Maonate Will Head the League for 1s15-Intend se-

NEW YORK, Oct 24.-At the meet ing here last night of the magnates of the Federal League Baseball Clubs James A. Gilmore, who has held the presidency the past year. was re-elect' ed and the members of the league are preparing to raid the National and American leagues of all the players whose contracts expire this fall or next spring.
 The league will not respect reser- vation clauses in the contracts, as these clauses are void under the law and cannot be enforced in the courts and can only be effective through the organization ball clubs refusing to deal with any player when a res ervation clause Is held by some oth CT club.
 The officials of the Federal League report that they had better season than expected, although 1914 has no, been a good ball year. partly because of the hard times and also because of the war.

LONDON, Oct 24.-The impression here is that the allies are being hard
 :essed in northern France and Bel gium, and that more men are needed by the British to stem the tide of German aggression. It is known that 500,000 new German troops have been thrown against the allies lines in that section and that more German army corps have reinforced the Ger mans near Metz, but military experts still believe that the German inva- sion will be stopped on the present lines and that. the slight gains at Lille and in Belgium will not affect the general result.
 Russian Situation Is Uncertain.
 The situation in Russia is uncer- tain, although the Germans have been forced back from Warsaw, yet nothing has been heard regarding the operations in Galicia nor in East Prussia and news from the Russian frontier is being watched for. It is believed that if the Russian success es have been as great as reported that the German general staff must send troops from France to East Prussia to stop the Russian invasion, which is certain to follow a success as lgreat as that near Warsaw.

 LONDON, Oct. 24.-The admiralty announced today that the allies have seventy fast cruisers hunting the At lantic and Pacific oceans to locate and destroy the German ships which have been preying upon British con- merce. These warships are also pa trolling the lanes of ocean travel be- tween the two continents so as to protect all shipping. It is expected that the Dresden, Karlsruhe, Leipzig and other German ships still at sea will soon be caught in spite of the fact that they are all fast boats.

 The admiralty also explains that the Germans have only succeeded in capturing and sinking forty out of 4,000 British ships, while the Brit ish navy have brought in 140 German merchant vessels. many of them of great value.

 HIGHER RATES
Tell Interstate Commerce Commission That the Roads Must Take
 Chances With Other Business

WASHINGTON. Oct. 24.-The ship pers yesterday entered strong pro- test to the granting of authority by the Interstate Commerce Commission to the railroads to raise rates. The shippers maintained that 1t was not the duty of the government to aid the roads to recover losses brought about by the war in Europe and that every business in the country has been affected by the hostilities and must stand the burden.
 The railroad attorneys insisted that unless some prompt action was taken to aid them that all the roads would be in the hands of receivers or fore ed to cut down the number of trains and curtail the transportation facilf- ties.
 The hearing was concluded last night and the commission will make its report in a few weeks.
