CHINESE GOVERNMENT
IS BORROWING MONEY
Of HOME MERCHANTS
(By Associated Press.)

PEKIN, China, June 24.-The Chi
nese government has been adopting
peculiar devices for the purpose of
obtaining loans from the Chinese peo-
pie, since it is impossible during the
European war to obtain them from
abroad.
Besides introducing a lottery sys-
TEN in order to obtain investments in
the National Savings Bank, they are
now offering decorations to merchants
who will buy the domestic bonds
which the government is issuing. The
purchaser Of several thousand dol
lars worth of the bonds receives a
sixth class or seventh class decora-
ton; he who buys more receives a
fifth class; and so it goes up to very
large sums, in which case special de-
corations, something new and hither-
to, unprovided, are granted to the men
who trust the government with hun
dreds of thousands of dollars.

TABOO ON DOPE
(By Associated Press.1


PARIS, June 24.-The government
has decided to take as stringent meas
ures with cocaine and morphine as
with absinthe. A radical decree re-
inforcing the faulty laws against illi-
cit traffic in them is expected from
the minister of the interior shortly.
A serious feature of the evil is that
the coco" as it is called, has found
its way into the army and navy.
The immense profits on the traffic
tempt the unscrupulous to risk the
few months of prison the law pre-
scribes. A gramme of cocaine costs
them cents and they sell it at from
40 cents to 60 cents. The police are
continually after them, but even when
they are caught they sometimes slip
through some loophole in the law. The
government has decided to close every
loophole now.

Turks Not as Hard Hit
AS Dispatches Would Indicate

form bay, there is little town,
busy and prosperous in Turkish
manner of speaking. In every case
the salient feature is a sky-piercing
minaret. At fixed points along the
road, white tented military camps
stand out against the green land
scape
At Gallipoli a curious feature is
provided by large black and white
singboards erected here and there
over many of the buildings of the
town. These are to indicate neutral
property How the owners hope that
the gunpointers of the ships in the
Gulf of Saros, many miles away be-
hind the hills, can see these signs is
not explained.
The fact that several important
structures here were hit by those sky
rocketing English shells impelled En-
yer Pasha to send twenty-five French
and English prisoners from Constan-
tinople to be housed in Gallipoli,
where they subsisted for six days at
the expense of Hoffman Phillips, sec
retary of the American embassy, who
accompanied them officially.
A feature of Chanak is the collec-
ton of cats living in the Street of
the Lame Camel. They were gathered
from various destroyed houses by a
kind-hearted Turk who now feeds
them.
Chanak is only the shell of city.
Beyond the white houses that line the
seafront, there is nothing, except in
the direction of Kilid Bahr, from
which it is separated by only few
hundred yards of water. Only when
the visitor actually sees this narrow
passage, swept by over fifty eight
guns mounted thirty feet above the
water, does the difficulty Of attempt
ing to force it become clear. Every
inch of the curface of the water is
plotted on the artillery maps in the
forts, and it needs but an instant's
calculation to get the exact range of
any ship entering the zone.

CONSTANTINOPLE, June "a
Turkish steamers still run up the Sea
of Marmora from Constantinople to
Gallipoli and Chanak, Notwithstanding
the activity of the British submarines.
Their cargo is mainly war stores
and munitions, and anyone who
wishes to ship as passengers, whether
he be Turk or alien, must have offil-
ial permission to make the trip.
The fear of submarines is very
strong among the Turkish sailors,
and the steamers bound for the fight,
ing zone slip away from their docks
at odd hours, generally midnight or
later with squad of sharpshooters,
twelve or more in number, stationed
along the rail on both sides of the
boat, rifles in hand, straining their
eyes out over the waters in search OF
the enemy. The Sea of Marmora has
many porpoises, and to the excited
imagination every porpoise seems
submarine. So the firing is frequent.
The crack of the rifles tends to steady
the nerves, however, so that by the
time the real danger zone comes into
sight the soldiers are quite Indifferent
to danger, and lounge about the deck
with utter contempt for the under
water enemy.
A little out of Constantinople the
steamers pass the big powder works,
which even in the blackness of night
present a scene of modern war. Eight
towering chimneys belch forth smoke
and fame, and the glare of the light
ed windows tell of the struggle going
on to keep pace with the demand for
munitions.
Ten hours from Constantinople
finds the ship in the broadest part Cf
the Sea of Marmora, and a few hours
later the peninsula of Gallipoli be-
gins to draw near.
This section of the country is far
from desolate. Every acre is culti-
waited. Roads wind in and out along
the shore, and windmills crown the
crest of the ridge of Gallipoli Wher
ever the sea pushes into the land to

LONDON, June 24.-The war has
brought what might be described as
trampless era to England. There
is not a workhouse in the United
Kingdom that has not reported great
decrease in the number of vagrants

men of sixty years or over. Officials
say there are practically no young or

(By Associated Press)

LONDON, June 24.-The war has
brought about revival of canal traffic
throughout Great Britain, and the
canal companies are doing better
than they have done in many years.
This is due mainly to the congestion
of the railways and at the ports.
Practically the only limit to the
traffic available to the canal COM
panies is set by the shortage of labor
and barges. Most of the younger
bargemen joined either the army or
navy early in the war, and the canals.
like the railways, are frequently
compelled to refuse traffic because
they cannot find men to handle it.
