LLOYD'S AND THE END
OF THE WAR
WAR
IN. Y. Evening Post.)

Wv L. OSl.D
Odds quoted by Lloyd's, of Lon
don that the war will end shortly
have heightened; in Wall Street to-
day it was reported that Lloyd's were
now asking odds of II to that the
conflict would end Sby August 81.
Virtually even money is offered on
wagers that the war will terminate be-
fore January 81, 1916.
Quotations of odds named at
Lloyd's have failed to stimulate the
offering of similar odds among those
men down town in the financial dis
trict who are active, before our an
nual elections, with election wagers.
A few small bets have been register
ed in the neighborhood Of the curb
market but wherever odds have been
quoted, they were governed in large
measure by personal sympathies. and
not by cold reckoning.
Spectators willing to take the short
end of the five-to-one wagers on a
December ending of the war say that
they have heard from London that
these were not prevailing odds; that,
if made at all, they appeared as a
special transaction. Some betting
agents here profess themselves will
ing to bet long odds that the war will
not come to a close before August
lst--which is the. anniversary of the
wars outbreak. But they are not
willing to name those odds when ask
ed for them.
Following are the odds attributed in
Wall street to Lloyd's of London on
the end of the war, expressed in

This means, by Wall Street calcu-
lations. that a person who wishes to
be insured that the war will end by
August 81, 1915. must pay 90 guineas,
of G94 los, as a premium, in order to
recover E 100 in case the war is not
ended at that time. Reduced to bet
ting terms, this means that the per-
son who puts up 90 guineas per cent,
or E94 los, would win ES los. in adj
dition to his original stake. il the war
is not ended by August 81. In other
words the insurance men at Lioyd's
are asking odds of o4H to SH, or
roughly, II to l on the termination Of
the war by August 81.
In figuring insurance in guineas per
cent, the rate is expressed in guineas,
while. the recovery is expressed in
pounds.

FRICTION WITH ENGLAND.
United tSates Sends Great Britian a
Curt Note Demanding Fairness 10
American shipping; and Restitu-
tion for Financial Losses.

United Press reports printed In
the afternoon papers Tuesday carried
the following item under a Washing
ton date line: ...
- much feeling has been aroused in
Washington and throughout the coun
try over the treatment American com
merce has received at the hands OF
Great Britain and warning couchej
in strong diplomatic language has
been sent to England in which II was
represented that the United States
would hold Great Britain to strict
account for all violations and would
demand financial restitution for all
losses. The note was prepared by
Solicitor Cone Johnson and Robert
Lansing under supervision OF Secre-
tary Bryan and its phraseology was
afterwards revised by President Will
son.
The document recites many acts of
unfairness on the part of Great Brit
ian and asks for definite information
as to the future policy OF the govern
ment. II is the most far reaching dec
laration yet issued by the United
States to any of the belligerent pow
ers.
Associated Press reports printed In
Wednesday morning papers. comment
ed thus on the message, under Lon
don date line
'The American note protesting
against the British treatment of Am
erican commerce and insisting upon
early improvement. came as a CON-
plete surprise to the British public
as there had been virtually no inti-
nation that any friction had arisen
between the two governments.
The placards posted by the Even
ing papers were given over exclusive
ly to the American note. and the PIT
pers gave IL the largest headlines
they have given any news during the
last month. Consequently the Brit
ish pople regard this as one of the
most important occurrences durlnl
the whole war. Nothing OF its kind
since President Cleveland's Venez.

sensation.

alcohol for one hour each day The
fumes apparently had little effect on
the animal itself. but the descendants
