London. Eng. Aug. 29.-What has
been going on in the North sea2 That
is the greatest mystery Of the war. the
problem most difficult to solve. It is
now over three weeks since the an
nouncement was made that the English
fleet had left Portsmouth under sealed
orders TO meet the German fleet The

here in London and controlling the
enemy's news as well as his own. was
lifted for the bare statement Then it
dropped again and nothing authentic
has since been heard Of the men 'owar
in the North sea The outside world
cannot pierce the veil. There are no
correspondents aboard the warships Of
either England or Germany in the
North sea to send back even censored
dispatches.
Has Big Battle Been FOuEhtf
OF the fighting on land. the public
hears something. At the start there
were correspondents in Belgium and
every day some news more or less au-
thentic Of the fighting in Belgium and
in Alsace and Lorraine has been pub
Hshed. But OF the naval doings in the
North sea, not a word. At first there
were stories Of a great battle Heavy
firing was said to have been heard
at sea off various British coast towns.
One story said that a German Zeppelin
with bombs had destroyed a British
warship every night But all OF these
reports were effectively denied. II is
a fact that the world has learned moth
ing from the North sea since the Eng
Iish and German fleets put to sea there.
Has there been a battle?
It seems reasonable. II the Germans
had met with actual reverses upon the
sea. that the British censor would be
ready and willing TO publish them. On

Hamberg Financial Institution in Hands of State Bank COmmis- sioner. Oldest in County
 Established 13 Years

State Bank Commissioner Davis has returned from Hamburg. where he took charge of the Ashley County Bank, which closed it's doors last week. He left State Bank Examiner, A. J.

SUPREME COURT AFFIRMS
 LOWER COURT DECISION Sustains Application of Blue Sky Statute to Business of Building

The Supreme Court has again af- firmed a decision of the lower court sustaining the application of the Blue Sky Statute to the business of build ing and loan associations. The Chan cellor having sustained the states de- murrer and dismissed the bill of the Mechanics Building and Loan against the State Auditor, the Supreme Court has sustained the decree.
 Judges McCulloch and Smith, how ever, dissented from that part of the opinion which holds that the act was passed in accordance with the man. dates of the constitution with refer ence to the proper recording of the Legislative procedure in the Senate journal.
 The courts opinion concludes "Thus it will be seen, the business of the building and loan associations is subject to regulation under the police power of the state, as well as the bu- siness of banking and insurance. Our conclusion is that the statute under consideration is not unconstitutional as comforting judicial power on the insurance commissioners. The classi- fication made by the Legislature is not unreasonable and arbitrary, and we hold that the legislature had the right to make the classification pro- vided for by the act"

ESTERDAY SPENT IN
 HEARING ARGUMENTS
Want Many Names Removed from Petition for Saloons in Argenta Only Four Arrests Made in
 Little Rock This Month

Little Rock, Jan. 20-The greater part of the day Monday was spent by County Judge Asher in hearing argu- ments and testimony for and against the removal of names from the peti ton for the granting of saloon license for Argenta. It will be several days before decision is reached, and it is believed in some quarters that Judge Asher will defer the decision on the Argenta petition until he passes on the Little Rock petition, which can not be taken up before Jan. 27.
 Up to the present time there have been only four arrests in Little Rock this month for drunkenness, against a total of 181 for the month of Dec ember. There have been only about one half of the number of the police court cases, and the city calaboose is practically deserted.
