U. $. DOES LITTLE
 RE-EXPORT BUSINESS
When Compared to the Great Commer- cial Nations of Europe, Great
 Britain, Germany, France.

Washington, March 24.-The United States does comparatively little re-eN- port business compared to the other great commercial nations-Great Brit ain, Germany and France-according to a statement by the department of commerce.
 For many years the total of for eign merchandise brought into the United States and sold again to for eign buyers has ranged between $35.- 0OO,OOO and $43,O00,O00 annually in value During the fiscal year of 1914 the total was s35,000,00.
 Great Britain's re-export business during the last calendar year totalled $465,O0,OOO against $42,50O,O00 han dled through the United States in the same period. The British excess ot domestic exports over American fig ures, however, was only one per cent.
 The great difference in re-exporta- tion business is due in part to the col onial possessions of the European coun tries whose business is handled through the parent country. Thus Germany in 1913 did re-exportatian business totalling $189,000,0O0 and France in 1912 .re-exported $357, ,O00,- 900 in products chiefly of their respec- tive colonies.
 The leading articles of re-exporta- tion in the United States are chemi- calls, india rubber, fbers, fruits and nuts and art works.

REFUSES GERMANYS REQUEST. Italy Will Not Allow Mission to Pro-
 ceed Through Erythrea.

Rome. wit Paris, March "A, 12:50 a. m.-The Italian government is said to have refused a request made by Germany that mission sent to Eryth- req be permitted to continue through that district into Abyssinia. Italy's s refusal is reported to have been based upon the belief that the object of the mission was to incite an attack by Abyssinians upon British forces in the Sudan.
 Erythrea is an Italian protectorate in East Africa bordering on the Red sea opposite Turkish territory in Asia.

10000 DEFENDERS Of
 PRzfMYSL KILLED Nearly 10000 Surrendered to Russians When Fortress Fell.

London, March 24.-The size of the l garrison at Przemysl and the number of men who surrendered to the Rus sians greatly exceed all estimates. l According to dispatches received 1 from Petrograd last night the garri- { son originally consisted of 17O,OOO l men, of whom 10000 were killed. Just under 120,000 surrendered when the fortress capitulated.
 Owing to the blizzard, which is in terfering with the telegraphic ser vice, no details of the surrender are coming through but Lemberg reports that for seven days prior to the fall of the fortress, the people of the town mad nothing to eat and the Russians, who took in large supplies of pro- visions, were welcomed as liberators.
 Suffering From Typhus.
 Dispatches from the same place say that 15,O0O persons were found suf- fering from typhus or cholera and that the work of disinfecting the place is being energetically under taken. The interior forts, it is said, were found intact, with good deal of ammunition in them
 Everywhere in Europe, both in bel lSeTenC ana neutral COunLr1eS, the greatest credit is given the Austrians for their long and stubborn resis- tace, which has greatly delayed and interfered with the Russian campaign in other directions
 Now that the Russians, whose num- bers, like those of the Austrians, must nave been greater than was hereto fore understood, are no longer under obligation to invest this fortress, big movement against Cracow or in the Carpathians doubtless will be inaugu- rated.
 Predicts Fall Of CracOw.
 One British military critic goes so far as to stake his reputation on the prophecy that Cracow will fall within the next month and that then Austria will endeavor to conclude a separate peace. He is more optimistic than the majority of military critics here. who are of the opinion that Austrians and Germans will likewise make a great effort in the southern field and to prevent the Russians from crossing the Carpathians or reaching Cracow.

HOW TO KEEP BABY's SKIN WELL

The regular use of Resinol Soap is usually enough to prevent those dis dressing rashcs and chafings to which most babies are subject. This is so, first, because Resinol Soap is absolutely pure and free from harsh alkali. and second, because it contains the Resinol medication, on which so many physi- cians rely for skin troubles.

The breechloading cannon were
among the earliest used. We find
them on English and other ships az
early as the last quarter Of the four
teenth century, and therefore much
before the time of the buccaneers.
The cannon was a mere tube, bound
with heavy iron rings, and was load
ed by the insertion of the "gonne
chamber" an iron pan containing
the charge, which fitted into and
closed the breech. These guns were
very clumsy affairs in comparison
with the modern breechloader, but
