a few passages expunged which, it
feared, might give offense to Americas much
needed friends in the mother country.
On the Fourth of July all the delegates except
those of New York (whose representatives signed
a few days later) had appended their names to
the document and had pledged their lives, their
fortunes and their sacred honor in the Of
liberty. Then came the moment for the Song of
the Bella song whose reverberations shall not
cease till the last page of American history has
been written.
Truly prophetic was the biblical motto which
Isaac Norris is said to have chosen for the bell:
Proclaim liberty throughout the land and to all
the Inhabitants thereof" And rapturously did
the assembled multitude and the distant patriots
receive the announcement of the bell, that at
last the 13 colonies had become the 10 United
States, and the days of the dominion of the for
egn oppressor were forever past.

WARSHIP BELIEVED
TO BE IN DISTRESS
WAS THE KANSAS

Philadelphia, December THE war
ship believed to be in distress last
night and today off Ocean City, Nd.
undoubtedly was the United States bat
tleship Kansas. Reports received at the
Philadelphia navy yard tonight from
Captain Niblack, commander of the
Kansas. now lying inside the Delaware
breakwater. said he had been obliged
to anchor off Ocean City to protect his
vessel from the storm. Captain NiblaclS
reported that the Kansas was unin-
jured except for slight damage to sew
eral lifeboats and the superstructure.
The Kansas, returning from Mexican
waters was in the thick of the storm
all the way up the coast and when i
became necessary to anchor five miles
below Ocean City. life savers and OBJ
servers from the shore believed the
vessel had gone aground. Because of the
thick fog the ship was only dimly
visible. Captain Niblack said that sew
eral times during the night he had en-
deavored unsuccessfully to exchange
torch signals with the life saving crew.
The Kansas is member of the
fourth division of tht Atlantic fleet
and carries 500 officers and men. Cap
tain Niblack reported he would remain
at anchor inside the breakwater until
the weather moderates when the yes

BOURSE REOPENS;
TRADING is LIGHT

Paris, December 7.-1:06 p. m.)
When the Paris bourse opened today,
after being closed since September 8,
large gathering of brokers and the
public assembled but their presence ap-
parently simply was out of curiosity.
The strident cries of stock prices usu-
ally audible, were entirely absent and
il transactions took place they were
effected in the course of conversations.
The market opened hesitatingly and
the closing was generally good.
Brokers stood about after the opening,
endeavorng to find out from acGuain-
tances something concerning the value OF
government issues and leading stocks.
Every one was reticent, however and no
sale or purchase was recorded for nearly
an hour. Then two bargains were struck.
These were for East Partisan Priorite at
SO and Volga at 40
Many hundreds of jobbers gathered in
the street, but they, too, were idle.
1t was remarked that many well known
faces were missing from the bourse rrin-
cipally those of Germans who usually
frequented the markets. Others had been
called to the colors and are fighting at
the front
The stock exchange committee has Is
sued a notice declaring that all brokers
and their employees must produce evidence
that they are French citizens or have
been naturaliZed.

There isn't a merchant in the south
