The analysis OF the United States
by the Urea sury Department has nat
urally attracted a good deal OF alton
tion in England and attempts have
been made TO draw comparisons he
tween British ana American figures,
The process is not very satisfactory
owing TO differences in the system Of
assessment and still more in the method
Of presenting statistics. The British
blue book on the income tax Is the
despair of statisticlans. II Is ordinarily
spoken OF as being got up with a
view TO the concealmrnt OF what Il
pretpnds to reveal. One Of It's oddities
is that an income exceeding $1,000 may

actual income as II whole never figures

The first result Of this extraordinary

of the men upon whose decision her
life depended.

three were challenged by the defence.
Many of the jurors admitted that they
had a speaking acquaintance with
either counsel for the defence or the
prosecution. But that seemed to make
little difference in the decision of the
attorneys to accept them.
When the court opens at 10 o'clock
Tuesday District Attorney Smith will
make his opening address to the Jury.
The first witness will in all probability
be DR.. William Runcie, who lives directly

PREDICT LARGE OFFENSIVE
MOVEMENT BY THE ALLIES

Paris, Oct. 10, els A. Nan unin-
terrupted offensive movement by the
allies at various points in northern
France was predicted here today as
the batatle was resumed. The re-tak-
ing of Armentieres, on the river Lys,
on the Belgian frontier and the occu-
patton, 10 miles west of Lille, of the
right line leading towards Douai, via
Givenchy and Fromelles was consid-
cred as constituting an excellent adj
vance guard position by reason of it's
numerous points of support. This,
with the progress in several other
sections, notably Arras, gave the al
lies hope of a continuance of their ad-
vance. Lieut.. Colonel Rousset, the
military critic, in reviewing the mill
tary situation, refuses to concur in
the statement made that the battle of
the Aisne has been definitely won by
the allies.

will not take the return route a re-

BELIEVE EFFECTUAL BLOCK OF
GERMAN PURPOSE HAS Been MADE

London, Oct f9-150 P. M).--By reach
the allied forces have established close
contact with the British navy which now
holds the extreme left of the line and
seems-from the London view-for the
moment to block effectually a further
German effort to turn this wing.
That the Germans may have grasped
this is perhape indicated in the otherwise
unexplained appearance Of four of their
tornpedo destroyers Saturday off the
Dutch coast southwark bound. 1t is sug-
gested that the object of the destroyers
was to convoy submarines which would
dispute the command of the sea on the
Belgian LittaraL
Should the German navy undertake this
venture 1t would be confronted with much
the same proposition as has met the Brit
ish fleet since the commencement of the
of colliding with mines heretofore faced
by the British alone. because the British
mine field stretches right along the Bel
gian coast from Ostend southwark.
IT, as the Allies claim, their left cannot
now be turned, the only alternative left
the Germans is to hack a way through
the trio of armies confronting them, and
General Won Kluck, General Won Arnim,
or whoever is in command of the German
right. seems in no way loath to make the
attempt. That they have made a forward

mnnication they have held the Ger
mans in an attempt to cross the river
User, southwest of Dixmude, Belgium.
This was the first heard of the Belgian
forces since the evacuation of Antwerp
and now they are found approximate
ly and picturesquely defending that lit
tie splotch of their own country that
the invaders have not taken. King
Albert. unheard of for sometime. is
said to have cheered the men in the
field.
Some of the London papers describe
the German evacuation of Ostend as
q retirement to the east on the theory
that the Allies progress to the south
threatened to isolate the Ostend gar
rlson, making retreat imperative.
The dispatches are far from unani-
nous on the direction of the retire
ment, however most of them describ-
ing 1t as a passage to the west.
From various sources came reports,
none of which were confirmed, that some
sort of naval craft are being pressed into
use by the Allies in the canals of Elan
ders and perhaps from the sea. Sunday
dispatch direct from Dunkirk said that
AedNy HflHS cOuld De neard tnere and 1T
was believed that gunboats were being
used In the canals. 1t was added that
heavy lighting was progressing south of
Ostend which if true meant the presence
OF allied forces at point farther north
than heretofore suspected. This is con-
tradicted by the report that the Germans
are west of Furness.
Though there was sporadic occurrence
or the anti-German demonstrations in
parts of London early this morning, po-
lice protection in such places has been
increased and no serious outbreaks were
reported during the forenoon in the city.
but at Saffron Walden in Essex, an Eng
lish lawyers house was attacked and the
windows smashed because it was said he
had been harboring two Germans. In the
continuing of the rioting at Deptford last
night German grain dealers house and
store were wrecked and then fired.
In the eastern war arena the great bat
tie in Poland appears to be progressing in
favor of the Russians, who claim to have
checked decisively the German forces in
their attempt to cross the Vistula. The
Russians in and around Warsaw are be-

Germans see that their vancouver in
the north is enangered. But 1t Is GER
tain that upon the horizontal line, go
ing from the Disc to the Mouse, the
allies have nothing to fear. as every
effort of the Germans from this side
would certainly be stopped.
"As to the new battle, that of Elan
ders, II is clearly offensive cu the side
of the allies. The circumstance which
irspires us IS iha. y will develop IN

The Socialists of France have de-

INCIDENTS OF MON DAY COMBINE
TO Give MORE OPTIMISTIC TONE
To THE WALL STREET MARKET

New York, Oct. 19.-Re-opening of
the Eastern freight rate case before
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
the excellent condition of the local
banks continued progress in the form
alton of the gold and cotton pools and
an easier tone to foreign exchange,
combined to put Wall Street in a more
cheerful frame of mind today. The de-
cline in bills on London, while accom-
panied by little actual business, was
accepted as an sugury of further re-
Taxation by foreign holders of our ma

There was revival of recent ru-
mors dealing with the early resump-
ton of business on the local exchange,
but in conservative quarters this was
received with a degree of reservation.
Regardless of contrary statements, the
belief persists that this market cannot
safely renew operations until London
points the way. The presence in this
country of a representative of the Brit
ish eXchequer and the approaching
termination, of the moratorium in
England will, it is expected, give rise
to interesting developments on this
point in the pear future.
