May Lower Price Of RadIum.

Contracts for delivery Of radium in
the early months Of 1915 have been en-
tered into at price as low as $67.50 q
milligram, and there Is a widely prev
alent belief that there may be q great
fall in the price during the next two
ycare. II Is interesting to note that for
some time after its discovery radium
could be procured at less than one
tenth Of its present price. The de-
mand for radium to be used for medi-
cal purposes has hitherto absorbed the
output, and has led to rates being
quoted which are excessive and alto
gether artificial. The large profits OBJ
tanned have, however, stimulated
search for uranium ores in various
countries, notably in America, and as
there are unlimited quantities Of low
grade uranium rocks available 1t
would appear to be merely question
of time before radlum will be placed
on the market at price bearing a
reasonable ratio to the cost of Its pro-
duction.

Austrian Left
Wing Was
Panic Stricken

London, Sept. 11.-Reuter's Tele-
gram company has dispatch from
its correspondent at Petrograd which
says that after the recent fighting
with the Austrian left wing, the enc
my's rear fed in such panic that reg
iments became inextricably mixed
and blocked the roads and bridges.
Those furthest behind resorted to the
strength of their arms to force their
way through the men ahead OF them.
The roads were Uttered with over.
turned carts and the harness of the
transport, the horses evidently hsv.
ing been used as mounts by the men
in retreat.
Many Russian hospitals, the CORE.
spondent continues, today harbor
more Austrians than Russians.
A correspondent of the Bourse Ga.
zette, the Reuter- man continues, re-
counts that at Bendizin in Russian
Poland, the Germans compelled some
Polish miners to load the coal trucks
of their trains. The miners did so,
but concealed high explosives in the
fuel. The results were appalling. It
is said that one military train was
destroyed and that an ammunition
factory was wrecked.
Cossacks are credited with having
wrecked German armored train
carrying quickfring guns at a point
north of Chenstokoff "a small detach.
ment of Cossacks fired at the train
while a big force remained in the
rear. The Germans backed the train
and 1t was derailed by the Cossacks
behind It. The cars rolled down an
embankment and the Cossacks then
attacked the enemy with their swords
The Germans were annihilated, the
correspondent Of the Bourse Gazett,
declares, and the Cossacks captured
the guns.

IMPORTS OF SALT

Common salt continues to be i'm
ported In considerable quantity, more
than a million barrels coming to At
lantic ports last year, according to
the United States Geological Survey
The country is amply able, however,
to supply the entire home demand as
the capacity of its salt mines and
works is in excess of the present out
put. The imports last year were
only SO per cent of the total con
sumption, whereas in 1890 the per-
centage- was 17.2.

ON
MINERAL PRODUCERS

With the cutting off of importa'
tons of many mineral products the
United States Geological Surveys list
of mineral producers becomes an I'M
portant source of public information.
In response to specific inquiries ad-
dressed to the Director Of the Sur
vey at Washington, concerning the
location of mones of any kind tribu-
tary to any particular market, ex'
tracts can be furnished from this
list. The list is not published one
as II includes about 10000 names and
addresses of producers and Is con-
stantly being revised, the changes
each year amounting to 20 per cent
of the list 1t can be largely utilized
however, in reply to inquiries from
consumers of mineral products.

GUIDED in the Surveys published re-

amined either by the buyer or by
some one who has knowledge of

confidence. Unless the buyer has
knowledge OF minerals, mines, and

unsafe. Besides knowing the ground
itself, a prospective investor should
be sure of the integrity of the pro-
moters and company officers, and of
the officers capacity for conducting

other operations connected with me

things are known, the Survey would
advise against investment in the

JUST BECAUSE sHG LOVES HIM

In the September American Maya
zine Katherine Holland Brown, writ.
ing a story entitled Aunt Jane and
the Lion Tanner" tells about girl
named Elizabeth Ann who is going
to marry q man named Jerry Led
yard. Jerry is somewhat of a pioneer
and is going to take his bride as far
away as Ecuador on business ad
venture which may or may not turn
out well. This does not disturb Eliz-
abeth Ann in the least, however. 1t
does not seem sensible that Elizabeth
Ann should do this, but she is going
to do 1t Just the same. Her brother
puts it this way to her:
II don't give whoop for instanc-

going to leave us all, and go streak
ing off to the ends of the earth with
that visionary cub. You'll put up with
all sorts of privations and never re.
alize how miserable you are, just
because you think he's the whole
thing. Worse, you'll keep right on
thinking he's the whole thing. You
will shut your eyes to his failures
you will gloat over his successes, you
will stick by him like glue. And nc
matter how tough a life you must
face in that wilderness, you will bluff
II out and pretend you love it.
