POSSIBLE THAT TIL Big
BOAT HAS REEN sunk
Vilhjalmur Stafansson and Admiral
Robert e. Peary Believe She Is
Safely Locked in Ice in the Far
North.
(By Associated PresS.)

Seattle, Wash, June 1S.-One year
ago last night the old 32O-ton wooden
whaling steamer Karluk, flagship Of
the Canadian government Arctic ex-
ploring expedition under command Of
Vilhjalmur Stefansson, sailed from Vic
toria, B. c., for Nome, Alaska. She is
now locked in the polar ice or sunk
beneath it.
After buying dogs and supplies at
Nome and stopping at Port Clarence,
Alaska, to make the final distribution
of men and cargo among the three YES
sells of the fleet, the KarlLk pointed
toward Boring strait July 81, 1913. She
encountered in the Arctic the heaviest
| ice ever known in midsummer, and
was unable to make the stop which
she had planned at Point Barrow, the
northermost projection of Alaska. She
was carried east off the point to long
itude $50, and on Sept. 10 was appar-
emily frozen fast for the winter. Tea
days later Stefansson, feeling sure
that the ship was in her winter cradle.
, set out for shore with two white men,
] two Eskimos and dog teams, to hunt
caribou to provide the Karluk with
fresh meat On September % vio-

Ralph Peters, Chairman of the Commit

office Department Has Been Grossly
Unfair to Carriers-"Without War
rant and Unjust"

Washington, June 18.-The railroads
of the country are now engaged in
fight in which they have the sympathy
of a large number of people in all
parts of the country. 1t is their fight
's:1 Ga''s.
The railroads claim to have lost
about $15,O00,000 year on the mails
and the Moon bill, which was written
by the second assistant postmaster
general, would cut their compensation
about $10,000,000 year more. The
railroads insist they should not be re-
quired to carry the man and then be
made to do it at loss.
They have demanded that Congress
base it's action on the report of the
joint congressional committee, appoint
ed from the Senate and House to in
vestigate the matter.
Ralph Peters, chairman of the com
mittee on railway mail pay, represent
ing 264 railroads carrying mails on
over 21S,O00 miles of line, has issued
the following statement:
''The Rules Committee of the House
of Representatives has, am informed
adopted recommendation that the so
called Moon Bill follow the Sundry
Civil Appropriation Bill, now being
considered by the House. The under
lying principle of the Moon Bill is to
reduce the pay of the railroads for car
'king the mails by about $1O,OOO,Ooo
P"Congress sometime ago appointed

SCIENCE OF ILLUMINATION III.
MAKES WONDERFUL PROGRESS

The work of the railway mail clerk
is one of the most trying occupations
on the eye. The United States Post
Office Department has recently taken
up the matter and is preparing to
equip all, our post-office cars with the
best and least injurious methods of
illumination. Several of our state gov
ernments are taking active steps to
regulate the lighting of cars and the
headlights of locomotives and auto
mobiles The binding result Of ex-
cessively powerful lights on locomo-
tives and automobiles is well known.
While such machines should be abun-
dainty lighted, to insure safety to all
concerned, excessive illumination
should be condemned and forbidden.
Indirect Lighting RestfuI.
The indirect lighting of theaters,
churches, restaurants and cars has
produced a revolution in inferior H.
Elimination. This method is most
restful to the eyes, and when suffi-
GENTLY abundant, is an ideal method
for the lighting of interiors.
Street lights should be protected by
glazed or opaque globes. When prop
erly installed and placed, such light
ing is sufficient and is much easier
on the eyes than the old unprotected
style of lights. The glazed or Opaque
globe seems to sbe coming into genera
use and it's use should be encouraged
not only in public places, but il
houses as well. Clear globes or lamps
should never be used; they are yer!
trying on the eyes. The nearer arti
fetal lighting can approach daylight
the more nearly perfection is reached
, Experiment With Marble.
In Germany they are experimenting
; with marble globes instead of glas
/ globes. The marble is planed dow
7 till it is thin and translucent and tn
' light produced is almost the exac
: counterpart of daylight. One invest
5 gator has shown that a screen coate
+ with an aluminium powder, placed i
! front of light, will produce an illun

IMPORTS AND EXPORTS
OF THE UNITED STATES

Washington, June 1S.-Of great prac-
teal value to the American business
man seeking information regarding for
eign markets for the goods which he
handles or the sources of imported
raw materials and of goods competing
with domestic products are two pub
locations presenting details with re-
spect to every important article ex-
ported from, or imported into the
United States, prepared by the Bureau
of Foreign and Domestic Commerce,
Department of Commerce.
1t is interesting to note, for example,
that coffee is now supplied almost ex-
clusively by Brazil, Central America,
and other tropical countries of the
western hemisphere; that sugar, for
merly imported in large quantities
from Java and the sugar-beet countries
of Europe, is now chiefly supplied by
Cuba, the Philippines and the domestic
product including Hawaii and Porto
Rico, and that champagne shows con-
stantly diminishing importations as a
result of the rapidly expanding home
output. American factories consume
great quantities of imported materials
last years imports including so million
dollars worth of fibers, so millior
dollars worth of raw silk, and 100 mil
lion dollars worth each of India Rub
Der and hides These are mere ex
amples of the more than 500 differen
classes of articles whose sources ar,
shown in Table 8 of Commerce an,

which include such widely varied item
as asbestos, beads, camphor, human
