IDLE MEN IN CITIES
There Are Thousands of Idle Men

New York.-The constant increase

be traced directly to that class which
occupies park benches and is main
tanned by charitable organizations,
according to Moses Sanders, president
of the New York Beef and Mutton
Company. He advanced this opinion
while a witness before Justice Bene-

Mr.. Sanders explained his conten-

State had practically quit raising
sheep and other food animals because
of the lack of necessary labor.
prior to 1870" he declared, farm
ers of this State produced something
like 100000 sheep a year for the pro-
duce market. Last year this was cut
to 5000. Despite offers of $50 a month
and food, the farmers cannot get la

He added the Illuminating fact that
practically the entire meat business
of this section was controlled by five
or six wholesalers and packers.

The Automobile Was Travelling at the
Rate Of Forty Miles an Hour
John N. Ryan, Who Was in the
Car, Was Badly Hurt.

OCEAN, City, N. J.-Dr. Matthew S
Borden, son of the late M. C. D. Bor-
den, the cotton manufacturer, and
| three others, were killed in an auto.

late Mr.. Borden saw freight train ap-
preaching and his car crashed into

AUGUST THAN WAS EX-
PORTED.
WAR CAUSES A BIG LOSS
Census Bureau Shows Great Decrease
in Staple Used Since European
Struggle Began.

Washington-The effect of the Eu-
ropean war on the American cotton
industry was disclosed a few days ago
in the Census Bureaus August cotton
consumption report, showing that dur
ing August only 21,210 bales were eX-
ported while during August last year
257,172 bales went abroad.
Great Britain took only $3.50 bales
this August while last year she took
77,4SS bales; Germany took only So
bales against 1928 year ago,

914,54 bales, >the domestic consump-
tion 5,577,S64 bales and the quantity
on hand August 81 was about 1924
265 bales.
An extraordinary feature of the re-
port was the fact that more cotton
was imported during August than was
exported by the United States, which
last year supplied almost approximate
ly 81 per cent of the worlds cotton.
Imports were 27,OS7 bales against Z
785 last year and for the II months

River Aisne Prepared to Stand.

River Aisne Prepared to Stand.
Paris. - It is officially announced
that the Germans are making a stand
on the Aisne
The statement is as follows:
"On our left wing we have everv.
where caught up with the rear guards
and even the main body of the
enemy.
~ Our troops have re-entered Ami
ems abandoned by the German forces.
"The enemy appears to be making
stand on prepared front along
the river Aisne
On the center, similarly, it would
seem as if the enemy intends to resist
on the heights to the northwest and
to the north of Rheims. In the region
between Argonne and the Meuse he
continues to retire.
On our ring wing, in the Woevre
district, we have succeeded in reliev-
ing the Fort of Troyon, which has
been attacked time and time again
during the last few days. (Tryon is
II miles south, southeast of Yer
dun)

London.-Except for the army which
has been attacking Verdun, the Ger

all along the line, according to the
French official report.
From Nancy to the Vosges they
have withdrawn from French terri
tory while on the extreme right Gen
eral Won Kluck and General Won Bue-
low continue to retreat to the North
east before the French and British,
even giving up their defensive posi-
ton On the River Aisne between Com

Further West the German detach-
ments that held Amiens have moved
northwestward to try to rejoin the
German army of the right at St.
Quentin. 1t is possible all the Ger
mans in Northwest Franch have done
likewise; otherwise they would be in
danger of being cut off in the center
Another defensive position, behind
Rheims, has been given up and in
the Argonne region general retreat
is taking place toward the forest of
Belnoue and Triancourt
The Allies are pushing their adj
vantage and doing their utmost to
turn the retreat into a disaster by

they are in good position to continue
the offensive, if the men and horses
are not too tired for further effort
They are based on a strong line. run
ming from the Marine to the fortreSses
through the hilly country South of
ArgOnne.
The reoccupation of Amiens by the
French and the preparations by the
Germans on the River Aisne to make
a stand against the Allies are the
chief announcements contained in the
latest statement issued by the French
Government. Apparently the Germans
also are preparing to resist on the
heights to the North and Northwest
of Rheims.
Petrograd reports that the Russian
troops are crossing the San Riven
and that the Russian army, in repuls-
ing desperate attack by the Aus
TRANS, captured many prisoners.
The British official press bureau
denies the reports that Russian
troops have landed in Belgium and de-
clares also that there is no truth what
ever in the rumors that Russian SOL
diers have landed in or passed through
Great Britain on their way to France
and Belgium. A Copenhagen dispatch
says advices from Berlin admit that
the chief Austrian army has suffered
an absolute defeat at the hands of the
Russians
Among the German prisoners arriv-
ing in the neighborhood of Paris are
general and his entire staff.
Picking reports that $4,000 Japanese
have been landed on the Shan-Tung
peninsula and that Jauanese troops
are passing toward Ping-Tu, about 40
miles north of Kiao-Chow, the Ger
men protectorate in China.
