BRITISH SEEKING
HARDWARE HERE
Cut Off from German

Agent to u. S.

That British merchants are anxious
TO build up trade connections IN the
United States in lieu of those they
have had with Germany is the state
mcnt of Percy &. Donald, of Rownston'
Drew G. Clydesdale, dealers in build
crs' hardware and materials LONDON
who arrived in New York yesterday as
the representative Of syndicate OF
builders hardware merchants.
Mr.. Donald is seeking new sources OF
supplies for the goods which have been
drawn from the Continent IN inc past:
His syndicate is now chiefly interested
i'm finding American sources OF supply
of nails, tubes, cast iron pipes, Struct'
ural steel. sheets, lead, glass, porce.
lain and euamelled baths and builders
hardware, both light and heavy.
1--WE in England have been buying
our wire nails principally from Ger
many and Belgium" said Mr.. Donald
in discussing trade conditions to-day
"The English production OF wire nails
Is quite negligible, because Germany
has had system of government boun-
ties, and the Germans have sold their
wire nails at a lower price than the
wire itself. the idea being to keep the
English from making wire nails.
"In the six months from January to
July of this year, the English imported
wire and wire nails from Germany and
Belgium to the total amount of 10000
tons. Nearly an equal amount of these
goods passed through English ports on
their way to Australia, Africa, South
America and other countries to which
they are exported from the European
Continent.
an the same six months period We
took 100000 tons Of steel bullets from
Germany, 10000 tons from Belgium and
only 10000 tons from the United States.
Out Of 26l 900 tons of steel sheet bars
imported by US, Germany supplied 2O5,-
900 tons. Germany also sold us $4,000
tons of iron bars and $4,000 tons of
girders during the six months period,
and in the same time We took 10000
tons Of tubes and 900 tons of plates,
mainly from Germany and Belgium.
ave have been buying $7600O0 worth
of window glass month from Bel
GUM, and this field is now closed to
US. as we'll as that Of Germany. We
shall have to depend on the American
and Canadian manufacturers for these
supplies, in addition to a great variety
of other goods
MIR. Donald will make his headquar-
tiers at the office Of the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers, 80 Church
st., each day this week for consulta-
ton with manufacturers who may be
interested in lines he wants to buy.

suggestion from Ambassador Herrick
az Paris that the United States APP
prosch the powers in an effort TO have

Ambassador Hcrrick cabled tho sug-

Shameful Rate. Raising To
Be Subject of Report
to Washington.
FIRST CLASS PRICES
PAID FOR STEERAGE
Americans Say Speculation Is
Common and Graft and
UnfairnesS the Rule.
rpy cable to Tho Tribune

london, Sept. s.-The action of GER
tain steamship companies in taking
what is considered a disgraceful and
unfair advantage Of Americans forced
TO return home, by raising rates Will
shortly be made the subject Of an Off
cial report and complaint to the State
Department.
II is hoped here, where there is much
feeling among the Americans, that the
government will find IL possible TO take
some action. if nothing more than by
publishing its reports, TO expose the Of
tending companies. The situation Illus
trates what would be at least one ad-
vantage OF government owned passen-
-er steamers II they were available
now they could afford TO create com
petition which would compel the Eng
iish lines TO keep their rates at nor
nal.
The companies greatest offence is
selling inferior accommodations at
high rates. Many well-tO-do Americans
compelled by circumstances to take
whatever they can get, are forced 10
pay in some cases approximately first
class rates for what are steerage &C
commodations, except, perhaps, Tor a
fresh coat Of paint and the slight use
Of scrubbing brush. Persons who
have essayed this write back that the
conditions really are impossible.
The steamship companies appear 10
be making the most of the war. They
have abandoned in many cases theiT
advertised rates. This is particularly
resented, because it was the action Of
the American government which made
il possible for Americans 10 60 second
or third class and have the run of the
whole ship. Before the war rush the
American regulations prohibited the
miNin. Of classes. Those in the third
class could not visit those in the sec.
end class part Of the ship, nor could
the second visit the first. Learning
that hundreds OF thousands Of Ameri-
cans were being compelled to 80 sec

This gave the companies a splendid

ers would have the liberty Of the

BELCIANS SUM UP
GERMAN OUTRAGES
Government Commission
erS Specify Alleged Acts
of Wanton Cruelty.

London, Sept. S.-A news agency dis
patch from Antwerp received here to-
day says that the report of the com
mission appointed by the Belgian gov
eminent TO investigate the charges of
German atrocities finds that atrocities
were committed by the Germans at
LOuvain. Wise, AeTschot. 0nemael and
in the district Of Malnes.
lnOhcnsive pedestrians, cyclists and
peasants, the rcDOrt says. were shot by
the Germans, who also robbed the pub
lie treasures and burned and pillaged
houses and towns on the pretcvt that
the inhabitants fired on the German
troops.
The commission found that Belgiare
were deported to Germany to aid in
gathering the harvest and that in some
eases the Belgians were compelled to
fight against the Russians. II also is
declared that men were shut up IN
churches while the women were at
tackled.
Men, women and children, the rcpor.
concludes, were compelled 10 march in
front of the German troops, showing
the white flag, in order to induce the
French troops to approach.
According to the Exchange Telegraph
correspondent at The Hague, the Ger
mans have burned two famous churches
at Dinant Belgium. One was the
Church of St. Joseph, which contained
an altar piece by Rubens, which was
destroyed.
Antwerp tvia London. Sept. S.-The
oaicial announcement here that Bel
gian prisoners of war have been com
pulsorily enrolled by the Germans to
fight against the Russians has been
communicated to the troops, with the
eXhortatiOn that il is preferable to
suffer death in the field than to allow
themselves to be taken to fight against
n friendly country.
Washington, Sept. S.-The German
Embassy to-day announced receipt of
this dispatch from Berlin:
THE 'Kolnische Nolkszeitung,' Ger
many's leading Catholic organ, prints
an interview with Monsignor DR.. Coen-
rad, vice-rector of the LOuvain Univer-
sity. He says there was hot firing upon
German soldiers in streets, and that
the firing was from Belgian guns,
which give a different report from the
German rifles. Monsignor Coenrad was
one of the hostages held by Germans
at the time of firing. He heard that
other prominent citizens were led
around in the streets to read German
proclsmatiOns at forty or fifty different
places warning civilians against shoot
ing. Even while reading these he heard
Belgian shots continuing. He highly
praised entire bearing of the Germans
after entering the city"

curious sentiment. The secretary ex-
pressed the wish that it were possible
TO SO amend the constitution of the

Secretary Houston had in mind his late
unpleasantness with the erstwhile

no harm IN honest ambition. nor in
