London, Oct During the past
few weeks dogs have been used in the
European war as they have never been
used in any war before AS spies, as
messengers and as aids to the Red
Cross they have accomplished wonders.
And the Belgians have a light artillery
service in which machine guns on
bicycle-wheeled carriages are maneu-
vered and go into action drawn by dogs
One of the best uses to which the
dog has been put during this war is
in connection with the work of the
Red Cross. AS soon as the battle is
over he searches for the wounded or
fallen soldiers. AS soon as one of these
is discovered he sets up loud bark
ing and the ambulance corps is at
tracted to the spot by the noise. If

sharpshooters, and If successful, re-
turns Immediately to the handler for
more ammunition, and so continues the
work until the battle is over, or, as
would be certain to happen sometimes,
he himself is killed 1t has been
proved that if he is wounded while
carrying out his duties, he can seldom
be induced to again venture near the
place where he has been shot or cut.
However, the faithfuMness OF the
dogs as rule is wonderful, and when
loaded with ammunition, they will
never allow the cartridges to be taken
from them by soldiers of another bat
talon, and sometimes only by those
of their own company, so well are the
dogs taught to know the division to
which they belong.

COMPETE WITH SOUTH WALES
American Coal Shippers After Trade
of the Mediterranean.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
LONDON, June 19.-The success Of
American coal shippers in securing a
large portion of the trade Of the Medi-
terranean and strengthening their hold
on that of French and Spanish ports is
occasionng considerable missivings
among the colliery and ship owners of
South Wales. who formerly held a mo-
nopoly of this trade. 1t has just been
announced at Cardiff that the Americans
have obtained an order for 100.0O0 tons of
coal from the Italian state railways for
delivery during the next six months,
making a total of 100000 tons for this
year. Formerly the whole supply Of these
railways was obtained from Wales. The
Egyptian state railways have also
bought more extensively from America
this year. diverting in this way some
50, 10000 from South Wales. American
coal cargoes are also finding their way
to French and Spanish ports with in
creasing frequency.
The high price of Welsh coal and the
cheapening of freights are held responsible
for the change. American coal can now
be delivered at foreign ports at from
so cents to 81 a ton cheaper than the
Welsh product. The Welsh collieries are
working to their full capacity and are
fully booked for this years product.
but 1t is the future which the owners
fear, for the Italian and Egyptian orders
could always be depended upon. whereas

Foreign CORRESPONDENCE of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, June 19.-The Casino Ma
cional de Panama Co., Limited with
the Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot as
chairman, which proposes to start sec
ond Monte Carlo at Panama, gives an
alluring description of the wonderful
gambling and amusement resort 1t in
tends to launch.
The company is to acquire $50 acres
of land, and to operate under charter
'insuring absolute freedom from all in
reference for a period of twenty-five
years." according to the promises of Its
prospectus, but no statement is made of
what authority is to give the charter
and to insure the freedom from inter-
ference.
The casino is to include most of the
attractions of Monte Carlo, a big hotel,
an orchid garden which will be one of
the wonders of the world, bathing pa
vilion, pigeon shooting, tennis grounds.
golf courses and principally the gambling
hall.
Panama is advertised as a splendid
winter resort. while passengers will have
twenty-four hours to spend on land while
the steamers traverse the canal, thus
inSuring constant patronage. Profits
to the stockholders must be large because
the roulette tables will be run on a sys-
TEN giving the bank a much larger per-
centage of profits than the Monte Carlo
company gets from the play there. Forty
per cent dividends on the four-pound
shares are predicted by the prospectus.

NEGOTIATION FOR UNION
OF PRESBYTERIAN BODIES
Action to Be Taken on Constitution
Proposed by Established Church
Of Scotland.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
EDINBURGH. June 1s.-The recent gen.
eral assemblies of the two great factions
of the Presbyterian churches in Scotland
the established Church of Scotland and
the independent United Free Church-will
be followed during the year by negotia-
tons which are said to be promising for
a union of these rival bodies, mending a
historical quarrel.
Various sects broke away from the
communion of the state church as far
back as the seventeenth century, the Sc
cession being in protest against the al
legged low moral state of the clergy and
the political system Of the established
church. The established church sought
to mend matters in 1884 by adopting the
rule that no pastor should be thrust upon
a congregation against the will of the
people, but this was annulled in 1S43.
Negotiations for union were renewed in
1907, but progress was slow until this
year on account of the opposition Of a
powerful minority on each side Even
the former leaders of the obstructionists,
however. are now urging union.
A constitution was drawn up by the re-
cent assembly Of the established church
which comedies the spiritual independence
of the free church. but at the same time
aims to preserve the traditions of the
state church. It Is this draft that will
be the basis of further negotiations dur
ing the coming year, and the willingness
with which leaders of both factions have
taken up the subject leads the pacifcists
to hope for success.
