OLD FRENCH PAPER QUITS

GENEVA, Nov. 1.-THE Gazette de
France" of Paris, the oldest French
newspaper, has ceased 10 exist. A
week ago the last issue of the VEN
cradle sheet appeared, as the Parisians
in these troublesome times no longer
had any use for it.
The Gazette" was founded in 1881
and for more than two centuries great

its power by its ultra-conservative
policy. 1t could or would not un-
derstand the aims of modern times
and during the 10 or is years
its circle of readers became steadily
smaller. Since the present war began
it lost the few subscribers 1t still hao,
because il did not join the rest OF the
press in the cry for the destruction Of
Germany, and even doubted that the
triple entente would be victorious.

COMMERCE OF j. s.
BEING STRANGLED
Strong Protests Against British
Action Pouring in on
ss Washington.

= WASHINGTON. Nov. 5.-Another
flood Of angry protests against the
British French interference with
American trade poured into the state
department from every section Of the
United States today. 1t is charged that,
despite the wonderful showing of in
creased exports in the trade reports,
the real commerce Of the United
States is being "strangled."
The National Association Of Import
ers. the various organizations OF ex-
porters in the big cities OF tire At
lantic and Pacific seabOards and the
big mid western beef packers al al
lege that their normal trade Is impos-
sible and that the bulk Of their reg
ular customers everywhere excepting
in Anglo-French territory are being
lost TO them through a systematic
campaign backed by the British
board OF trade.
The latter is supplying customers
IN the scandinavian countries, Spain,
Portugal, Italy and Africa that in the
past have dealt almost exclusively
with American firms. And, despite
the 10, 900 word protest now before
the British and French governments,
which will be made public next Mon
day, the importers organizations
make 1t very plain that they see no
real help coming.
Will be Asked to Act.
There is now no doubt not even in
the minds Of the close advisers of the
administration that congress will be
asked TO act. In fact while for OBJ
vious reasons the state department
must publicly take the opposite view,
senators and representatives who ia
vor retaliatOry legislation believe that
there will be no very strenuous OBJ
lection by Sec'y Lansing to such legis-
latiOn being offered unless England
and France change their tactics with

conditions pow confronting American
capital. Alfred r. UriOn, general coun-
sci for Armour x Co, and leading the
fight for the Chicago packers. said
today in explaining the protest filed
late yesterday against the new allied
trade rules:
The British government refuses to
permit us TO supply our regular GUS
toners in Sweden, via Christiania,
Norway, and insist that all goods we
sent TO Norway must be consumed in
that country. The situation is getting
much worse instead of better"
Files Direct Demand.
Henry Graham. a New York ship
ping agent, has filed with Sec'y Lam
sing a direct demand that the United
States guarantee the safety Of the
steamship Winneconn, now loading
freight for scandinavian points at
jersey City. r. G.. Wagner head of
the American transatlantic Steam
ship Co. has filed a demand for pro-
lection for his six ships following the
sending OF the case of another of his
line, the Hooking, to a Halifax prize
court.
The tone OF the protests that are
reaching the state department, officials
admit. now is far more insistent than
1t was a month ago. 1t is fatty de-

that goods valued at millions would be

POPULATION OF KlEFF
THROWN INTO A PANIC
Feared Capture by Germans and Sold
Household Goods For Al
most Nothing.

STOCKHOLM. Nov. 5.-NoscoW
papers which arrived here report that
the population of Kief, the capital of
Bessarabia, was thrown into a panic
when the successes of the German and
Austrian armies i'm NOlhynia became
known in that city. Many of the in
habitants. in their fear of a German
invasion of Bessarabia, ruined them
selves by selling everything that could
be turned into money. Valuable
pianos were sold for % roubles and
expensive sophas, parlor suits, ETC..
could be had for a few roubles. Pic
lures. books. chairs. etc. were given
away.
The authorities kept the fall of
Dubno and Lutsk secret as long as
possible but the capture OF these two
fortresses by the Teutonic allies be-
came known through arrival OF fugi-
tives. The weather. classes of the
city began TO leave at once. Some OF
the fleeing inhabitants left their homes
in charge OF armed guards and others
placed their furniture in storage
houses.
Thousands Of people stormed the
depOts, demanding transportation to
Moscow or Odessa, but only about 600
persons could Get away every day. as
only two trains left in each direction.
All railroad tickets were bought up by
spectators who resold them at an
enormous profit. When il became
known that high officials were con-
nected with this speculation. serious
riots occurred and repeatedly troops
had 10 charge the theatening mobs.
The excitement only subsidized when
German and Austrian prisoners began
20 arrive again and IL was officially
ANNOUNCED that the Russians had
started a counter offensive. and were
driving the enemy back 10 the border
of Galicia.
