MARKET STILL SHAKEN
BY ARABIC INCIDENT
Nervous at Opening and Many Leading
Stocks Decline; Steady Later,
Several Points Recovery.

New York Aug. 24.-Stocks were again
very much unsettled yesterday, after
opening with some degree of steadiness
Nervousness resulting from the Arabic
incident was the chief contributing fac
tor. United States Steel was the pivot
around which the market revolved. that
stock becoming increasingly weak on
heavy sales which forced the price down
to 69A in the first hour against Sat.
urday's closing price of 70Ss, and later
to 67%. Last weeks high price was
77Ss.
Some of the war speeialties showed
greater depression, American Can losing

the high-priced railways lost 10 2
points, all falling below last weeks min.

later recovered from TO points.
The confidence with which stocks were
absorbed az their lower levels caused
hasty covering of short contracts. Steel,

TRY THIS If HAIR
STARTS FALLING

At this season of the year, many peo-
pie find their hair coming out at an
alarming rate and often fear badness.
This may very easily be the ultimate
result if proper scalp treatment is not
taken at once. All excessive loss OF hair
can be almost Immediately stopped by
the use twice daily of little Partisan
Sage, which invigorates and nourishes
the slowly dying hair roots into a re-
newal Of healthy normal action. New
hair quickly grows on the thin spots,
old hair stops falling, and the difference
is apparent in few days by the very
look of the hair itself taking on new
life, luster and beauty. Partisan Sage
can be obtained from the Red Cross
Pharmacy or any good druggist. 1t is
not expensive.-Advt.

Balkan Situation in Acute
Stage Following Italy's
Attacks on Turks
VENIZELOS TAKES
OATH AS PREMIER
Teuton Allies Said to De-
spair of Keeping Sofia Neu-
trail Any Longer

London, Aug. 24.--The Balkan situa
ton reached the acute stage yesterday
Serbia was expected to make known be
fore night whether she will cede Mace
donia to Bulgaria.
M, Venizelos was to be sworn in al
Athens as the new Greek premier, anc
it was believed he would make definite
statement of the course Greece intends
to pursue.
No hint has come from Nish as to the
course of the Serbian government. Ser
bian diplomats here characterized the
Bulgarians' demands as exorbitant, but
important influences are known to have
been at work at the Serb capital during
the past week. 1t is believed possible,
however, that Itaiy's declaration OF war
against Turkey may delay Serbias an
swer.
Bulgaria has made no fresh move to
indicate whether she intends to Join the
allies. Her military preparations are
almost complete and she is awaiting Ser
bias answer From various sources the
news has reached London that neither
Turkey nor her Austro- German allies are
quite so confident OF keeping Bulgaria
neutral as they were fortnight ago,
though Italian reports that the Bulgars
were massing troops on the Turkish
frontier have received little credence
here.
Until Serbia and Bulgaria make their
decisions no change is expected at Athens
or Bucharest. Diplomatic circles here ex-
press the conviction that the new Greek
cabinet will favor maintenance of
Greece's neutrality until new develop
ments in the Balkan situation make it
appear certain Greece will gain by enter
ing the war.
Dispatches from sources not always re.
liable reported yesterday that Roumania
had been seized by the war fever. Italy's |
war declaration against Turkey was said
to have aroused wild enthusiasm at |
Bucharest. Rumors that Germany had |
threatened force unless Roumania per-
mitted the passage of ammunition TO |
Turkey were also said to have famed the |
war flame in the Roumanan capital.
That the munitions situation is becom-
ing more serious from the Turkish stand |
point, particularly since the allies have
landed more troops at the Dardanelles,
is believed here, and it is thought pos
sible that the Austro- Germans are at.
tempting to coerce Roumania. But dipo.
mats here take no stock in reports that
Roumania's alleged friendliness for Italy
will cause Roumania to Join in the war
on Turkey. They pointed out that Rou-
mania failed to enter the war when Italy
declared war against Austria, though il
was believed at the time that the two
powers were in pact to begin hostilities
on the side Of the allies at the same mo-
ment.

SERBIA YIELDS TO
ITALY ON ALBANIA
One Point in Way of Balkan Agreement
Is Said to Have Been
Adjusted.

Milan, Aug. 24.--One of the main diff
ficulties in the way of solution Of thu
Balkan problem favorable to the entente
allies has been settled, according to ar
interview with Premier Pachitch of Ser.
bia in the Corriere Della Sierra. The
premier is quoted as saying that Serbia
has given way to Italy regarding Al.
bania.
Premier Pachitch, according to the
newspaper, went over several phases of
the present situation as well as declaring
that Austria had tried several times
since the beginning of the war to con-
clude a separate peace with Serbia, but
met with refusals from the Serbian gov
eminent. The inaction of the Serbian
army, the premier said, was due to sani-
tary conditions and the necessity for
reorganization and the accumulation of
war supplies. When the moment comes,
he declared, the Serbian army will fight
steadfastly and in accord with the armies
of Serbia's allies, true to the principle
of the Balkans for the Balkan peoples.
Serbia has been endeavoring ever since
the beginning of the war to reach an
agreement with Bulgaria and is trying
to do so now, the premier said, on
basis conserving the vital interest of
north countries. So far as concerns Al
bania, the premier is quoted as declar
ing, Serbia bows to the decision OF Eu-
rope and wishes friendly solution of
the Adriatsc question with Italy, ae-
the predominant position of
italy in that field. An agreement has
ust been reached, the premier added,
ior Serbia to send to Italy Austrian
prisoners of Italian nationality in ex-
'hange for prisoners of Slavic national
ties taken from Austria by Italy.

EXPERIMENTAL DELIVERY
MAY BE DISCONTINUED.
Congressman Bacharach Takes q
Hand in the Matter and Promi-
SEES to Look out for Pleas
ANTILLES interests.

There is a we'll formed rumor that
the appropriation for the continual
ton of experimental delivery service
in certain communities may be de-
feated in the next appropriation for
the Post Office Department, it being
the opinion of certain officials of the
Department that the people in the
towns where such experimental SER
vice has been established, either do
not desire or have no need for the
delivery of their mail.
In order to ascertain the opinion
of the people of Pleasantville and for
the further purpose of securing and
compiling some reliable information
as to the success and value of the
experimental service in Pleasantville,
Congressman Bacharach has taken
the matter up with Mayor Adams and
Postmaster Obert. Mayor Adams is
personally of the opinion that it
would be a very great mistake to
deprive Pleasantville of this service,
and states that he believes every per-
son in Pleasantville is of the same
opinion, and until Pleasantville shall
be entitled to a regular city delivery
service, no change should be made
in the present postal facilities. With
this information in the hands of Con-
gresham Bacharach he will be able
to keep in touch with the matter and
he has stated that he will do every
thing in his power to aid in the re-
tention of the Experimental service.

ROAD SUPERVISOR
DIRECTED TO FINISH ROAD

The annual dinner given at the
County Asylum by Superintendent
Tobias L. Mcconnell last Wednesday
to the Board of Freeholders, their
wives, and a number of invited guests,
was a highly delightful affair, and was
enjoyed by nearly a hundred persons.
Judge Higbee spoke, following the
feed, and declared himself in favor of
woman suffrage.
The Board held it's regular monthly
meeting preceding the dinner and
transacted considerable business of
Importance.
Through their failure to execute the
contract which had been awarded to
them for the construction of a new
bridge over the Mullica River, the
Board ordered that the $4,000 certifi-
ed check of the contractors, Lupton &
Remick, of Buffalo, be forfeited.
The contract for the painting of the
Patcong Creek bridge was awarded to
Eugene Elms on his bid of $110.
Owing to the fact that the Miller
Construction Company, who have the
contract for the Mays Landing-Som-
ers Point road will not be able to COM
plete the work on the date set, the
Board authorized the Road Supervisor
to finish the road and deduct the mon
ey expended from the amount yet due
the contractor.
The contract for the repairing of
that portion of the Meadow Boulevard,
which has been paved. was awarded
to the Standard Bitulithic Co. on their
bid of $1S45.
The contract for the water supply
of the new tuberculosis hospital was
awarded to John Moore on his bid of
$4,150.
The Asylum and Almshouse Com
mittee was authorized to advertise for
bids for the old almshouse, which is
not being used now. 1t will be sold at
the next meeting.
The detective bills presented by
Prosecutor Moore for S., 700 were held
over for one month.

Particular attention is called to the
very extraordinary attendance in the
rural district of Buena Vista Twp.
This splendid attendance has made
possible the employment of a Super
vising Principal in that district and
the payment of the highest salaries
to rural teachers in the County. In
addition to this it has also reduced
the per capita cost of education on
the total enrolment so that Buena
Vista Twp. expends next to the lowest
amount in the County per child per
year for education.
The per capita cost of education,
by districts in Atlantic County, based
on total enrolment and average daily
attendance is as follows:
