Leather Goods Going Higher.

Everything is pointing to higher
prices in shoes within a few months
at the outside. America depends
largely upon Europe for leather, only
a small per cent of the leather pro-
duced in this country goes into the
fine shoes. The American hides go
into sole leather, harness, saddles,
furniture, power betting, etc. 1t is
estimated that 80 per cent Of all the
calf skins used in shoes comes from
Europe Practically ali the colt skins
come from Russia. The bulk OF
the kid skins are imported, as well al
the dyes and chemicals used for max.

INJURY FROM FALL
CAUSES DEATH OF
JOHN H, FELOMAN
Pioneer German Resident
HELPED Build RichnOnd's
First Railroad and Wit
nesses City's Rapid Growth

After lingering for three years In a
critical condition as the result of in
juries sustained in a fall at his home.
301 South Seventh street, John Henry
Feldman, 78 years and months old,
died at 6 o'clock this morning. He
was one of the pioneer Germans of the
city, moving here from his native
country when Richmond was a village.
Mr.. Feldman was born at Olden-
berg, Hanover, Germany, December
Is, 1925, and came to America with
his parents, brothers and sisters on
May II, 1874. They landed at Balti-
by way of stage coach and canal
through Cincinnati. His wife, Mary
Feldman, died last January as the re-
suit of an accident similar to the one
which caused Mr.. Feldman's death.
He was one of the oldest members
of st. Johns church, having been con-
firmed in that church before the old
building on South Fourth street was
built.
One of the interesting incidents in
connection with his life is that he was
employed in the construction OF the
first railroad through Richmond. He
helped build the road bed of the old
c., H. & D. railroad, which is now a
part of the Pennsylvania, the Rich
mond Cincinnati division. He has wit
messed the growth of the railroad in
this country from it's beginning. He
was in the engineers cab IN the first
engine that pulled train over the
Gaar bridge, which marked the COM
pletion of the railroad which he had
been employed in building.
He lived in the house in which he
died for fifty-three years. When he
first moved there the land east of
Seventh street was practically a for
est Very few houses had been built
and much of the territory on which are
now located some of the finest resi-
dent houses of the city was cow pas
ture.
The accident which resulted in his
death occurred Tuesday noon. In an
effort to leave a lounge on which he
had been placed by his son, John, he
fell to the floor, throwing his hip
bone from it's socket. Uremic poison
ing was the direct cause of his death.
He had been in poor health for num-
ber Of months and has been unab to
move except when given assistance.
He is survived by five children, four
sons and one daughter. They are
John, Adam and Ed. all Of this city,
Fred, Of Springfield, o., and Miss Lena
Feldman, of this city. He also had
four grandchildren and one great
yrandchild. One brother, Davis Field
man, of South Eighth street, is also
living
The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon from the home, 301
South Seventh street. Burial will be
in Luthera1ia. Friends may call any
time after Sunday noon.

EMPEROR DEPENDS
ON SWORD AND GOD
TO REPEL ENEMIES
German Ruler Hopes to
Sheath Weapon With Hon
or After Subduing Enemies
of Vaterland.
By FREDERICK werner.

BERLIN, Aug 1.-Germany has no.
titled Russia of it's intention to mobl-
lie if Russia does not discontinue its
war preparations within twelve hours.
"A note has also been addressed to the
French government asking what at
titude that country proposes to adopt
in the event of war between Germany
and Russia.
Berlin is war mad. Patriotic mobs
filled the streets during the night
shouting for war with both Russia
am France. Fifty thousand men and
women gathered before the Kaiser's
palace and cneered repeatedly for
Emperor William and the German en-
pire.
Kaiser Makes Speech.
The Kaiser finally appeared at
window and made a ringing appeal
to the patriotic sentiments of the
throng.
This is a dark hour for Germany"
he said, when the tumult caused by
| his presence had quieted. "EnviOus
people on all sides are compelling us
| to our just defense. The sword is be-
! ing forced into our hand.
II hope that if at the last hour my
efforts don't succeed in bringing our
opponents to see eye to eye with us
in maintaining peace-I hope with
Gods help we shall so WELD the
sword that when all is over we shall
i again sheath it with honor.
"War would demand its enormous
sacrifice in property and life, but we
should show our foes what it means to
provoke Germany. 1 commend you all
| to God. Go to church, kneel before
God, pray him to help our gallant
| army"
Cheer Non Moltke.
From the Kaiser's palace the great
throng marched to the various gov
ernment buildings and cheered for the
| various ministers. Count Won Moltke
head of the general staff of the army,
was unanimously cheered.
| Crown Prince Frederick William to-
day took command of the first divis-
! ion of the Imperial guards. He was
| cheered by his fellow officers when
he arrived at the regimental head
quarters.

VAUGHAN BUILDING

For one dollar and other consid.

able properties in the city, was
transferred today by the heirs Of

What the purchase price Of the

but it is known that some time
ago an offer Of $135,oo0 for the

representative Of the Dickinson
Trust company Of this city, and
that that company was contem-
plating the erection of large
office building, in which its offices
would also be housed.
President Hiatt of the Dickin-
son Trust company, however, de-
MED this report. He said his COM
pany had been appointed the
agent Of Mr.. Starr for the collec-
ton of rentals from the tenants Of
the building.
It is generally understood in
business circles that the old
