DONOVAN TRYING TO SIGN
HOWARD LOHR, LOCAL STAR
Yanks Need Hitting Outfelder.
Lohr's Price Too High.

Bill Donovan. manager of tho New
York Yankees, thinks that his team is
better than at least four clubs in the
American League, which is another way
of predicting a first division berth for his
club. Donovan Is badly I'm need of
right-handed hitting outfelder, and made
an attempt to sign Howard Lohr, a local
star who Is playing with Clifton-Heights.
of the now famous Delaware County
League. but Lohr will not come back to
the game regularly.
Lohr was with the Reds last season.
and showed well until he suddenly de-
cided to leave for PhlIy to get married,
despite the fact that IIerZog wanted him
TO go to Memphis for further seasoning.
AS result tho Red manager became
peeved, threatened him with suspension,
but finally gave him his unconditional re-
lease.
Lohr Is sure TO come through in time If
he cares to play in the major leagues, but
he wants more money from Donovan
than is reasonable in view Of the fact
that he could not be placed in minor
league If he failed to make good. Bill
says that nc will pay him his price will
ingly after he has made good, but Lohr
wants an ironclad contract before he
gives up his position.

London, March 25.-(SpiciaD-Sir
George Paish, the noted British econ.
omisI who visited the United States
during the crisis of last fall as an en-
issary Of the British treasury, points
out in The Statist, Of which he is the
editor, that With the issue of foreign
securities in London prohibited and
the French and German markets prac-
tically closed to the issue of foreign
securities, New York has the entire
field of international finance at her
feet.
In q recent article, after tracing the
various steps by which the United
States was transformed from a debtor
nation to the worlds greatest credi.
tor country, Paish says:
A Tribute to America.
The change of sentiment and in
the economic situation in the United
States in the last few months is so re-
markable as to partake of the mira.
culous. = = Confidence in the
United States has been completely
restored: almost the whole of the
emergency currency notes have been
redeemed, and the exports from the
country are greater than they have
ever been. The United States, in
stead of owing money abroad on cur
rent account. have a large credit bal
ance in their favor, and gold, instead
of being exported in great volume, is
being Imported from day to day. In
deed, the volume of American exports
is so great thai the United States is
mot only able to meet it's obligations
to other countries for interest and SER
vices, but to lend large amounts of
capital to foreign nations. Further
more, the outlook is that the United
States in 1915 will sell gods to foreign
nations to an amount SO vast that they
will be in a position to buy and to
pay for great quantities of securities,

ing PURPOSES by the new act may
reach a very lage sum indeed. Last
week our American correspondent
pointed out that the stock Of gold in

which only $256, 900, 900 are in the fed.

therefore, that as federal reserve

poses in the United States by the new
law will eventually be much greater
than $500, 900, 900. At the present mo-
ment the United States Is swimming
in gold, and to import much more
would be a waste of resources, of
which American bankers are, we be.
lieve, incapable. The enormous
amount Of gold already in the coun-
try, is, indeed, very uneconomical, and
entails a loss of interest Of many mil:
lion dollars a year. At the end of De-
cember the excess reserve of the ma
tional banks alone vas as much AZ
$3.50, 900, O0O.' Therefore, American
bankers do not seem likely to encour-
age the import of gold, for which they
have no use, but are much more like
" to leave balances abroad or to en
courage, their customers to purchase
foreign securities. The probability Of
the latter course is increased by the
ambition of American bankers and
statesmen to make New York the
great international money market of
the world, instead of merely the chief
money market of the United States,
as it has hitherto been" <.4

ITALY N H A

Italy's entrance into the war is the
next big news that is expected to
break at any moment. ID.
Surface indications are that she
will withdraw from the Triple ALI
ance and cast her lot with the ALLIES
making the odds more uneven, than
ever.
Italy maintained at the outset, when
she refused to join Germany and Aus
tria, that the Triple Alliance was
merely a defe asive arrangement and
that as Germany and Austria were
the agsressors. she was relieved from
all obligations imposed by existing
treaty arrangements.
The entry of Italy into the Euro.
pean conflict will embitter the strug-
gle still more. Temptation to seize
territory and dreams of expansion are
too much for the statesmen who con-
troll the destiny of the nation.
How is Italy prepared for war?
She has only seven modern battle.
ships; no cruiser battleships; eight
older battleships; nine f~irst-class
cruisers; five second class and ten
third class boats, and a personnel of
men and officers of some $4,000. Her
navy ranks seventh among the world
powers. She has compulsory mill.
tary service and a peace establish.
ment of 100000 men. The estimated
war strength is $780, 200 men.
One factor, probably, which has de-
TERED Italy SO long is her national
Nebt, which now totals more than two
Vlion, with annual interest of more
Nn one hundred million. This Is
Y by a population Of s5,ooo,ooo.
dA question of financing herself

CODDLING CRIMINALS.

Every time the agitation to abolish
capital punishment is started by law
makers, there is much foolish cod
ding of criminals. 1t is hardly wist
to lose sight Of the punitive side o.
prison life. This can be done gradu
ally by emphasizing too greatly thu
reform methods now in vogue in al
modern penal institutions.
The Tribune was not in favor O.
abolishing capital punishment sucl
as it. existed in this state. 1t also
believes that it is unwise to make
too much of the states wards. The
process of reform a be carried or
more tgectivcly if some of the cod
ding is dispensed with.
In practically every state in the
Union there have been some flagran'
abuses Of the pardon power. Nortf
Dakota is no exception.
