WAR TO COST TEN BILLIONS
French Authority Thinks 1t viii Last
Seven Months and Check Eco
nomic Progress.

Paris. - Paul Leroy-Beaulieu, the
economist, estimates that each of the
greater belligerents is spending an av-
erage equivalent to 5000, 900, 900 month
ly.
In presenting these figures to the
Academy of Moral and Political Sci
ences he said that he considered it
probable that the war would continue
seven months, from August 1.
Accordingly the five greater powers
engaged were committed to an expen-
diture Of $7,000,0 00, 1000. Each of the
smaller states, including Japan, will
have expenses of $780, 200, 900 to $780,
100000 to meet.
M. Leroy-Beauieu continued:
Zone might say that the war will
cost the fighting powers roughly 3d.
900, O00, 900 to 10000, 000, 1000.
These figures, which do not take
into account the losses of revenues
during hostilities, will be met, first,
by the issuance of notes against the
accumulated gold in the government
banks; second, by the issuance OF
short term treasury bonds to which
all governments are having recourse
during the war, and third, by delaying
payments for military necessities.
THE larger part Of the savings Of
the world will be absorbed by the tax
ing up of national loans and economic
progress will be seriously checked"

Capitol Beard Meets.

A session Of the capitol building
commission is in progress here. The
commission is going over and COM
plotting the details of some features Of
the changes in the stone contract
brought about by a modified agree
ment with the Gill Construction COM
pany.
Although there is no official infor-
nation ~obtainable here as to the prog
ress being made at the Superior quar-
ry in Jasper county, near Carthage,
and at the Cassville quarry, it is un-
derstood that the Gill company has
a force OF men employed at each
place.
A dressing plant is being put in at
each place, and it is understood that
the Gill company is making prepare
tons for the erection of a sample wall
of stone from the Superior quarry.
1t is probable that the commission
will visit the quarries.

fore actually reaching it. Attention was in recent years directed to the tomb
by the request of Francis Winslow, a trustee of the Patterson estate, made
to the health board of the district, for information relative to the burial laws
governing the use of such vaults. Mr. Winslow stated that no interments
had been made in the tomb in many years, and that, with one possible excep-
ton, none of the descendants of the Patterson family desired to be inferred
within the place. In view of the possible application for interment within the
vault, MI. Winslow requested information as to whether the health depart
ment would permit it.
AS a result of the request Health Officer Woodward had the records of
his office searched, but nothing concerning the old tomb could be found. The
question was referred to the city solicitor, who replied, in IN opinion, stating
that under the new code no person could be buried in any grounds except
those known as private Or public burial grounds, n such as may be SO desg
mated in the future by the district commissioners.

LONDON INsuRlNG AGAINST ZEPPELIN BOMBS

& London.-Some well-known Amer
leans in London are among those who
have secured insurance against
bombs. There is such a rush here
for bomb insurance that the rates at
Lloyds took a decided upward leap,
the highest being for properties near
government buildings and the water
rsout. Around such places the rate
rose from five shillings to seven shil-
j.ngs six pence and even to ten shil-
llhgs, which Is a decidsd advance as

more sacred pocketbooks were safe. There are a good many rich Americans
who go to Europe to spend the winter or at any rate a part of it. Some of
these this year, it is known, are to come to Washington, and their numbers
added to those of the hitherto more or less permanent jewellers in Europe
will come pretty near filling all of Washingtons houses in which the visitors
would care to live.
liner we're twice as many vacant houses facing the avenues n streets
OF wealth last winter than there were the winter before. Why? The reason
is a curious one, but that it is the right one cannotrb be doubted. There ar
more rich Republicans in the United States than there are rich Democrats.
Many of these rich Republicans have retired from business. Under Repub-
hcan administrations they came to Washington in large numbers to spend
their money.

broker said:
I'VE have been swamped with re-
quests for insuring houses against

districts the rate should be higher

an old friend of mine inserted in a New York paper a communication in
which he said that had acquired a large tract of land in Morgan county,
and had organized a c corporation for the purpose of raising ratuesnakes"
This, according to Mr.. Brown, was the beginning. Many letters followed
from all quarters. Exporting companies In New York and New Jersey want
ed to make arrangements to take all the ratlesnake skins that could be fur
nished. They would tan them, in case Mr. Brown lacked the facilities. The
skins were wanted for export trade to Paris and London.

that they wanted me to reserve large blocks of stock for them. I think that
if l had taken all these offers l would have had $1000O00OO0 worth of stock
in the enterprise by now. But it all failed because l could not find a general
manager. Kindly write and tell me whether you will accept, so that the
great enterprise can be inaugurated and continued with success"
When asked Is to his intentions, Mr.. Allies spoke regrenuly of the press
of engagements in other fields Of endeavOr. He said, however, that it re-
CURED no fertile imagination to grasp the immense possibilities in the plan.
In fact, he was of the opinion that it beat Col. Mulberry Sellers eyewater

upon the exact number of ophthalmc Cinnamon. In the case of the rattle
snakes, however, it was altogether different. There was the Skin, to begin
