ALL AMERICAN SHIPPERS

Washington, Jan. 5.-The notice to
shippers, drawn BY the state, treasury
and commerce departments, after be-
ing sent to Ambassador Page, was be-
ing sent throughout the country to-
day.
"The government says the notice,
'looks with confidence for cooperation

prevent such action on the part of
shippers as adds unnecessarily to the
difficulties of business at this time.
Whenever shippers desire such aid In
carrying on their foreign business the
treasury department will furnish. upon
application to the customs collector at
any point, an officer to superv Sc the
loading OF cargoes to certify to the
completeness and accuracy of the man
ifest.
AS further precaution, 1t is sug
gested that the shippers accompany
ships manifest with an affidavit stat
ing that the articles shipped are cor
rectly shown by the manifest and that
the packages contain nothing except
that which is shown there"

BY ASSOCIATED pREss.

London, Jan. 5.---Two OF. the three
Turkish columns. which last week in
vaded Russian Caucasus, have met
disaster. The troops not killed were
captured or are in disorderly re-
treat.
The column which took Arabian two
days ago has been driven out of town.
Petrograd official dispatches say. 1t
adds it is almost surrounded by the
Russians, who hold the main roads.
Another Turkish column. which
crossed the frontier near Sari Karnysh
on the road to Kars, suffered even a
worse defeat One of the two army
corps composing it has been captured
entirely.
The Russians also report another
victory over the Austr1ans In the
Uzsok pass of the Carpathians. The
Austrians in this region are said to
be in full retreat in the mountain
passes deep in the snow, with the
Russian cavalry attacking their flank
and rear.
By forcing this pass the Russians
are again in control of some of the
most valuable oil fields Of Austria,
thus closing another source Of fuel
supplies which the Austro- German
forces are said to be greatly in need.
While forcing back the Turks and
Austrians, the Russian troops are
holding the line of the Mazurian lakes
in East Prussia, and fighting strenu-
ousIy to withstand the German often
sive in North Poland, which Is advanc-
ing toward Cracow. They have crossed
the Buckowina, which now is virtually
in their possession.
Except at the two extreme wings,
the Belgian coast and Upper Alsace,
where the allies have gained some
ground, fighting on the western front
has been done by sappers, miners and
artillery. The infantry is engaged only
at isolated points. A few hundred
yards have been gained among the
dunes Of Flanders.
Late reports indicate that Steinback
was captured by the French after al
most superhunan efforts. The French
are now attempting to force their way
through Germany. This would open
the way to Muelhausen.
The house of lords meets here to-
morrow and Lord Kitchener is ex-
pected to make statement on the wars
progress and the British preparations.

THE ROUND BALE.
COMP ANY.
IN BANKRUPTCY.
Voluntary Petition Filed in
WhichIts Liabilities Were
Given at 1894, 600, and It's
Assets 50 Cotton Gins In
South.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

New York, Jam 5.-The American
Round Bale Press Company, New
York corporation with $6,000,o00 au-
thorized capital, filed today volun-
tary petition in bankruptcy In which
its liabilities were given as $934,000
and its assets as fifty-nine cotton gin
plants in the South. and presses value
not estimated.
appointed receiver.
The company is a reorganization eff
fected in 1907, Of the American Cotton
Company in which Former Governor
David r. Francis Of Missouri. the late
Cornelius N. Bliss and James NJ. Can
non, New York banker, were inter-
ested. They. as far back as 1901,
were members OF a protective COM
mittee for the companys stock
With the Texas Cotton Products
Company. q subsidiary, cotton gin
congresses and real estate located In
Texas, Alabama, Arkansas Mississippi,
Oklahoma. Tennessee, Georgia. Lou
isiana and Missouri were taken over
at the reorganization.
Included in the liabilities are $751;
$40 first mortgage bonds. Paul Jones,
the receiver, was manager of the con-
Germ which. II was said in cotton cir
cles today, had not been active in re-
cent years.
Opposition of shippers to the round
form OF cotton bale was said to be one
reason for the coEnpan4ss failures
Attorneys for the receiver attributed
the failure to the European war.
THE business of the company has
been FRUSTRATED by paralysis in the
cotton trade resulting from the Eu-
ropean war" their statement read.
1.-THE round cotton bales have for the
last two years had the exclusive mar
active demand for them. 1t is under
stood that the attitude of the bond
holders is wholly friendly"
Charles 8. Meek, vice. president OF
the company, explained the failure as
follows:
1.-THE money raised by the mortgage
bonds was practically all required to
meet the cost OF acquisition of the
property taken over of the organiza-
ton so that the working capital with
which the company started was very
small and the company was unable to
assume direct management of the
stock which was scattered all through
the cotton states, but was obliged to
lease its plants to other operators.
"As round bales were not listed on
the New York cotton exchange the
company was obliged to establish its
own markets.
The increase in freight rates for
round bales having destroyed the mar
ket over here, no market could be
found for them in this country. All
these circumstances made the conduct
of the business extremely difficult for
the past seven years, but had good
market been obtained abroad the sit
uation would have been greatly sim
plified'

WHEAT SELLS AT
$1.35 A BUSHEL
BIZ ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Chicago, Jan. 5.-Directly as a con-
sequence of the European war, cash
wheat in Chicago today sold at $1.35
bushel. the highest price in more
than forty years. Moreover the chief
speculative option, May delivery, rose
to S1.37 5-8 and "a a bushel, an adj
vance of more than 10 cents a bushel
since week ago, and three cents
above last nights figures. The mar
ket closed unsettled but not far from
the top level of the day.
What the situation applied to Amer
leans, not to mention foreign coun-
tries was emphasized by announce
ments today that leading brands of
-four had been advanced forty cents a
barrel overnight. Good flour was
quoted at 81 a barrel
Although profit taking by holders
wiped out much Of the extreme adj
vance recorded at the outset, the mar
ket gave no sign Of going back to yes
terday's prices. One of the reasons
was that farmers and country dealers
were said to be selling no wheat even
at the advance and that exporters
eagerly continued to buy.

JUDGMENT Lower
Court Set Aside
By Subreme Court
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington. Jan. 5.-The supreme
court today set aside a judgment OF
the Fourth federal circuit court of
appeals which awarded Sarah e. Hol-
brook and I'VE children $4,000 for the
alleged negligent killing near Pando,
w. Va, OF their husband and father.
a bridge carpenter. on the Norfolk and
Western railway.
The trial court had instructed the
jury that children were entitled to
greater damages than adult depend
ents.
I'VE think the juries OF the country
should be taken as having some sense
declared Justice McKenna In dissent
ing for himself and Justices Day and
Hughes. He asserted the majority OF
the court had picked out a few words
and lost sight Of the fact that the jury
was told in other portions of the
charge that no award was to be given
for loss Of love ana afrection.
Would any one deny the loss to
little children in the death of their
father is greater than that OF adult
dependents?" he asked.
