200 ARMORED AUTOMOBILES
LOADED FOR SECRET PORT
Motor Trucks, Believed to Be Destined
to Allies, Include Mounting for
Guns.

NEW YORK, Nov. "a full cargo
of munitions of war will be carried by
the Balgray, a British freight steam
ship, which is loading in South Brook
lyn for a continental port. A close
veil of secrecy has been drawn about
the nature of the cargo, and entrance
to the pier is guarded by twenty armed
men, who are on duty day and night.
From authoritative sources it is learn
ed the Balgray will carry, among other
articles, 200 two-ton quadruple drive
motor trucks with heavy armored
wheels and appliances in some in
stances for the mounting of rapid fire
guns. These are said to have been
built by the White, Packard and other
firms, and are part of the big order re-
Gently placed in this country by Rus
STA, France and England.
The cargo also includes 1000 hard
rubber tires, 200 bales of blue trousers
and jackets, which are thought to be
field uniforms, several hundred bales
OF barbed wire, saddlery, horse shoes
and nails and foodstuffs. The Balgry
is a vessel of approximately 1000 net
tonnage, and will carry upward of s.
600 tons of cargo.

STRIKING EVIDENCE OF
IMPROVED CONDITIONS

From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
Striking evidences of Improvements
in conditions were afforded yesterday.
That the strain is off the foreign ex-
change was made plain when the COM
mittee in charge of the gold fund Gre
ated to provide remittances gave no
tice to it's subscribers that one-fourth
of their contributions would be at
once returned. At the same time in
stallments on account of the 100000
600 New York city loan are being ac-
cepted in checks instead of gold or
sterling bills.
Then, as to the monetary position.
agents of leading banks were actively
offering funds on call at per cent,
and as might be expected in existing
circumstances, the demand was light,
and loans were made at 5 1-2 per cent.
This does not mean that money is yet
easy in the full sense of the term, but
with the bank reserves restored, and
emergency notes being rapidly retired,
the outlook is decidedly encouraging.
There is no longer any scare" in
the situation. So far from there being

YPRES IS ISLAND
OF MUCH INTEREST

LONDON, Nov. 3-Ypres, now hap
PLY occupied by an Anglo-French
force, offers to the tourist show place
that has no equal in any other town in
the world-a house that seems TO have
been left just at 1t tenanted by its
eighteenth century Belgian family.
From entrance hall to attic the Hotel
Merghelynck is a perfect embodiment
of the life of that period
In the dining-room the table, laid for
dinner awaits the guest who will never
come; the bedrooms invite sleepers
whose names are carved on the tomb
stones seen through the windows. Ev-
erything is ready-except the guests.
1t is as though a time-machine had
switched us back three centuries.
1t took a lifetime to reproduce this
house, with its priceless furniture and
bric-a-brac. And for the moment one
is happy that the Germans are not in
Ypres.

WOMAN RUNS TOWN

WHAT SHE TOLD GERMANS WHO

Especial to Times-Recorder.)

Especial to Times-Recorder.)
PARIS, Nov. 3.-When the Germans
entered scissors the mayor of the
town left with the other fugitives. His
place was taken by MIME Marcherez,
wife of former senator of Aisne, and
this lady has taken over the government
of the town.
Nine. Marcherez has fulfilled her du-
ties with the greatest success. She
took charge of the police, the fire sta
ton, the hospitals and; with the aid Of
the bishop of Scissors, she has man
aged to run the town.. both during the
German occupation and afterwards.
Twice over the town was traversed
by the German legions-once before
and once after the battle of the Marine.
During many days a continual stream
OF herman trops was passing through
it. Their first requisition was for TO-
600 kilos of oats, 10000 kilos of food
CHAINS, preserved meats, smoked saus-
ages and preserved fish,, and 10000
kilos of tobacco and cigars. The gov
erness of the town was told that it
would be burnt if these goods were not
forthcoming.
Mms. .Macherez bluntly told the
Prussians that they might as we'll ask
for the sun and the moon, for it would
be impossible for the town to supply
anything like the quantities asked for.

land and Russia might pursue sim
liar course. The $10O00,OO0 loan to
France is to be distributed among a
number of banks, both in and out of
New York, according to an announce
ment made today at the National City
Bank. No gold will be shipped abroad,
but the entire amount will be used in
paying for American products to be
shipped to France.
The loan, it is reported, is to run
nine months, and the collateral is to
be per cent treasury notes of the
French government issued for this
period. The basis of the loan is report
ed to be about 5 IL per cent interest,
and it is said the money will be adj
vanced on the understanding that it is
all to be spent in the United States.
In this connection it became known
today that the National City Bank had
loaned 100000 to Norway and that
Switzerland also sought to obtain a
loan here.
German credit in this country, plac-
ed by some at between $50,OO0,OOO and
$75 ,0000,000, already have been reduced
J through purchases here of foodstuffs
and general merchandise, including
considerable wearing apparel.
British Action an Aid.
1t is known also that heavy ship
ments of canned meats and similar
provisions have been made for these
German interests, which are expected
to continue their purchases for an in
definite period.
Great Britain't assurance of nonin-
reference in the shipment of cotton to
foreign ports in neutral bottoms has
also stimulated to an unusual degree
the German and Austrian demand here
for cotton.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Dr. Martin J.

nounced today that he had received an
order for 10000 horses from represen-
tatives of the British government. He

value of this latest order $S,10O,000.
French army officers at East St
Louis already have bought 1850 hors-

ernments are buying heavily, it is I'M
derstood, at Kansas City, Springfield
Mo-, and other points in Missouri and
in southern Illinois. Most of the hors-
es already bought have been shipped.
Germany is offering from $500 to
5000 a head in Missouri for good hors-
es to be delivered in Germany.

VIENNA, Nov. 8, Via Rome-After
Paris, Brussels and Belgrade comes the
turn of Vienna, and the removal of
European capitals, has become a COM
mon occurrence. The choice for the
new capital of Austria, if the govern
ment has to be removed, lies between
Prague and Innsbruck. If, as seems
likely, the latter place is chosen, the
seat of the Emperor Francis Joseph's
government will be centered in one of
the most picturesquely situated towns
of the empire. 1t stands high and is
surrounded by mountains rising to ov-
er 5000 feet. The emperor has a pal
ace near by; the town contains a ma
tional museum, and, like so many other
German and Austrian cities, has its I'M
iversity, with an average attendance OF
about 1900 students. Innsbruck also

France, which has placed large ord

and it is a question as to how expensive
the hob-nailing process will be. One

machiners for this purpose.
The w. H. McIlwain Company, which
received an order for 100000 pairs for
France last week, has had the order
increased to 100000 pairs. 1t is debat-
ing whether to increase it's facilities
and accept an order for 100000 pairs
of boots. The Endicott-Johnson Com
pany is making 100000 pairs of boots
for Greece.
Great Boom in Leather Trade.
There is a corresponding boom in
leather. One company, with an anuai
turnover of $12 900, OJ5, is running it's
factories day and night at 125 per cent
capacity. Before the war it was run
ming at 40 per cent capacity. Most of
the leather is for England, and is to be
made into boots there for the army. So
far England has bought no boots in the
United States, but is expected to place
orders soon. It's demand for leather
has put up the price to cents a foot.

Indianapolis and South Bend were

AMERICAS OPPORTUNITY.


There arc altogether too many
pessimists in this country who
are kicking about the effect of
the European war on business.
Coming as it did Immediately
after a period of depression it
kindled anew in the minds of
some people the feeling that
prosperity would not return for
a long time. AS a matter of fact
the wars big cost will fall on
Europe and as soon as the final
treaties of peace are signed the
commercial and financial ascen-
dency of the United States is
bound to begin-then we will
have to get busy and figure out
ways and means to fill orders
helping to rebuild Europe and
we will have no time to lament
over anything.
AS a result of the war there
has been a. more or less dlsar-
rangement of business and A.
nance, but it is now well in hand
and will entirely stop as soon as
peace is in sight - and that
should be soon.
This war has given the United
States a greater opportunity to
increase it's foreign trade than
any other country has ever had.
German foreign commerce is
practically stopped and the COM
merce of other European nations
at war is very severely affected.
A large part of this trade will
surely come to us if we are prop
erly equipped to take it over.
The opportunity presented re-
quires a first-class merchant ma
rine which this country has not
had since the Civil war. With the
establishment of merchant
marine the commerce of the
United States will again be
transported to all parts of the
world in American bottoms. and
we will become the greatest fl
nancial power in the world. We
believe some new records for big
business are not far ahead for
the entire United States of
America Let us supply Americas
needs. Ills alone will make business
improve greatly.
