u. S. VERA CRUZ
DEMANDS ARE ASSURED

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-Consul
Silliman cabled the state department
from Vera Cruz that he had received
from General Aguilar, military gov
ernor designate of Vera Cruz, a prom
ise that he would at once issue proc
lamation giving definite and satisfac-
tory assurances on all pending ques-
tions concerning the transfer of
authority at Vera Cruz.
These include the guarantee of full
protection to all Mexicans who have
been in the service of the American
authorities at Vera Cruz, the reconi
tion of all tax receipts and customs
collections by the American authori-
ties, and guarantees of protection for
all foreigners and their property.
1t is probable that when General
Aguilar has issued his promised proc
lamation his action will be brought to
the attention of the Carranza govern
ment, and the inquiry made if the
central government approves of and
promises to support the action of it's
subordinate.

kRUPPS BUILD GUN
TO SHELL ENGLAND

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Travelers
returning from Germany brought with
them details of the great new Krupp
guns, designed, according to current
belief, to fire projectiles across the
English channel.
''These guns are the great surprise
which Germany has mentioned so
often in dispatches lately" they said.
The new guns will be 1858 inches
in caliber. The siege guns used at
Namur, Liege and Antwerp, the trav-
elers say, were 11-inch. The cross
channel guns, which are expected to
be used from Ostend or on the French
coast, weigh no less than tWenty-fOur
tons, and fire a projectile weighing
one ton, with a charge of three-Quar-
ters of ton of powder behind it.
The length Of the new weapon is
said to be $3.50 feet, and it has a range
Of twenty-eight miles, with power
of penetration at 24.S miles. The cost
of each shot is $4,000 marks, or $4,000.
The cost of the gun complete is 1885,
900 marks, or $465,500.
Despite the cost of the gun, it's life
time is estimated at only 120 shots. 1t
is fired by electrical control from a
bomb-proof set 300 feet away. A man
who was in Berlin a few weeks ago
says the Krupp factories are working
night and day on these weapons, and
that successful tests have taken place
on the Kiel canal, the guns proving
all that was expected of them.

Brazil OFFERS u. s. PART
OF Sl50,OOO,OOO TRADE
OF TOTAL IMPORTS U. S. SUP
PLIES ONLY ONE-FIFTH
Great Britain's Exports to South Amer.
ican Republic Amount to $685.
900 Annually-U. S. Could
Export More Coal

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-Of Bra
zil's total annual imports of man
ufactured articles, valued at some
100000, the United States sup
plies less than one-fifth. Why not
more made in America sales there
The United Kingdom attends to the
lions share. In 1913 British exports
to Brazil were worth $49,75S,000. Met
ais and metal manufactures consti-
tuted $15,00O000 of the aggregate; +;
coal, $16,700,000, and cotton piece
goods, $S,700,O00. Next in order came
cars and vehicles, textiles and chemi-
Gals and drugs.
The United States should get part
of this coal business without difficulty
Germany's slice was $31 1865, 900, OF
which $17,260,OO0 was in metals and
metal manufactures; $33,775,000 in
miscellaneous articles, mostly cement
over $2,000,000 in leather and leather
manufactures, and the rest in paper
and paper manufactures, motor cars
textiles, glassware and cotton piece
goods.
The United States could we'll cut
into this.
Fully half of Frances $14,275,00O ex
ports to Brazil was in metals and
metal manufactures. Scientific and
surgical instruments, drugs and glass.
ware were each over $1,000,000 in
value
The United States is capable of sup
plying metals a-plenty
Fifty per cent of our trade with Bra
I'll was in metal and metal manufac
lures, 20 per cent of it in railway and
motor cars, and about 10 per cent each
in coal, leather and leather manufac-
lures.
France disposes of $1,5OO,O0O more
of rails and railway accessories in Bra
Zil than either the United States or
Germany. The United States may
pride itself, however, that it ships most
of Brazil's sewing machines-nearly
$2,00O,000 yearly.
Again, Germany leads in exports to
Brazil of prepared skins and hides
annual value over $2,000,000.
American drug companies fill one
tenth of Brazil's medicinal and chemi-
cal demands, while Germany, England
and France divide up the rest of $5,-
100000 business.
Germany sends to Brazil all her bot.
ties and pottery. Of the $7,00O,000 &C.
ment which Brazil wants, Germany
furnishes $3,OOO,O0O, the United King
dom $2,000,000, and the United States
only $750,000. This could be RENE.

BRITISH AGAIN BUY
HORSES IN ST. LOUIS

EAST ST. LOUIS, Oct. 20.-Dealers
at the National stockyards were still
selling horses to the British and
French.
After staying ott of the market for
a week, the British agents again were
active, and bought 800 horses. They
have orders to buy 10000, and have a
contract with one dealer to supply 500
horses a week.
The French also are buying at the
rate of about $50 horses a day. The
agents were instructed to make their
purchases in the ST. Louis, Chicago,
Kansas City and Indianapolis markets.
But they say they have found prices
here so favorable that they may make
all of their purchases here. They have
instructions to buy $500 horses in
America.
