 was fnaugurated- of t his trusting upon an uncertain source of funds and revenue for conducting it's operations The correct way eff may be sold enough to say it1 is the simple ordinary way of issuing debentures Each project should have been re- Quired to stand good for it's own de- bentures. and these debentures should have been issued in representation of the officially appraised value of the land as improved and been redeemed out of a sinking fund created by the instalrnent> payments of the land owners.
 Besides creating an adequate sup ply, of capital, this method of finance would have made the investment of the government profitable and also have frightened the burden of, the land owners. The sooner this or some oth- CT method is adopted the better it will be. Indeed, 6 change is absolute ly necessary because the Secretary of the Interior warns that a cessation of all workNis imminent, while the Direc- tor of the Service reports that land- owners are falling in arrears and must be granted renewals even after the ex- piration of the recent twenty-year ex- tension.

ENGLAND SEES COUP
 FOR VON HTNDENBURG

London, Sept. 21.-Cemmenting on Field Marshal Von Hindenburg's la test coup. the correspondent of The Times suggests that since the recent changes in the Russian higher com mand, the wise strategy of Grand Duke Nicholas seems to have lost fla vor ana instead of continuing tfeir orderly retreat, the Russians held on too long. This gave the German commander an opportunity of which he avaiIed himself fully and great cavalry raids of the American Civil war have been reproduced in the Vil- na region.
 "It was a great coup,' the cores pendent says, flor the German cav airy to reach Vi1eika and the railway junction at Molodachno, which must have been the main artery for sup plies not only for the Wilma army but for all the Russian troops fighting on the Vilna-S1onim front. It was bad business for the Russians/to lose this point even temporarily:'

Undersea Warfare
 Drives New Fish to
 Scandinavian Shores

Stockholm, Sweden. Sept. 21-Dur- ing the past few months of the war tremendous quantities of a species of nsh unknown to Scandinavian waters, and driven in, it is supposed, by the disturbance of the sea caused by sub marine warfare, have been caught off the Swedish coast near Gothenburss and appear as a novelty on the menus Of the resta aurants in Stockh olR2. Al though these fish are said to be com mon in southern seas where they are known as "ton'' fish, they have never before been caught in this part of the world. A record catch was made a few days ago near Gothenburg by a man who brought in $50 fish every one of them weighing more than 150 kilos. Since more of these fish are taken in daily than can possibly be used for food, oil has been made from them, but it is said to be of an in ferior sort and hardly worth the cost cf manufacture.
 With the exception of this gratui- tous offering, Sweden is by no means oversupplied with food. Prices of fered for food abroad, particularly in Germany, have been so enticing, and exports have consequently been so large that Sweden now finds herself in the predicament of not having enough supplies for herself

 FOR BIG LOAN
 PROGRESSING
Vexing Questions Incidental to Foreign Credit Are
 Eliminated.

New York, Sept. 21.-Negotia toward the establishment of credit loan of from $500, 100000 to $soo,- 100000 to Great Britain and France moved smoothly to-day. it was said, with virtual elimination of the matter of providing a method of paying for munitions and with the reported de- termination of both sides not to tie up the whole sum at one time in New York.
 Subordination of the troublesome question of providing a way for pay ing for munitions of war has not sim ply postponed a decision on this point, in the opinion of the Anglo French committee as reflected by it's callers, but will result in it's gradual disap- pearance. These bankers have as stunned that the big credit would un- doubtedly not be intended to cover every dollars worth of exports but that Great Britain and, France would continue to remit gold to America and also would sell American securities in this market.
 These methods. it was thought, could amply provide A way for taking the munitions out of the negotiations. The first big problem as the comnis- sion and it's American associates. is [ to stabilize exchange. This could be
 done by establishing a credit cover ing foodstuffs and cotton alone, hard Iy reckoning manufa ctured articles.
 Proposals before the commission were also said to provide for install
 ment payments by banks guaranteeing the big loan and the deposit in the subscribing banks of all subscriptions, without interest until such time as they are hooded. Another matter said to have come up for discussion was whether the short term bonds, on which the loan is to be issued, could not be made to include the privilege of conversion to long term (5o or 100 years) bonds which would pay four and one-haIf per cent. interest. These it was thought, would be a favorite investment in the bond markets, in asmuch as the would virtually be a first mortgage on the British empire and France.

MERCHANT LINER, MOUNTING GUNS,
 DETAINED HERE

Washington, Sept. 21.-state de- partnnent officials still. are conferring with attaches of the British embassy regarding the merchant ship Waia- mana, detained at Newport News for several weeks by order of the gov ernment when she put into port from Australia with four-inch gun mount ed on her stern
 The ship was held up because o4 the probability that the United States would revise rules governing carrying of the defense guns on lmerchant ships of belligerents in view of the devel- opments of submarine warfare. When rules were laid down by this govern naent permitting merchant ships to carry small defense guns to enter and leave American ports the submarine warfare had not developed It now is apparent that small defense guns such as merchant ships carry. can de- stroy subnarine. fs.=s., @f
 It was stated to-day that the Brit ish government may decide to remove the gun from the Waianana and not raise any issue at this time. If the gun is removed the vessel will be cleared. Should this occur, 1t was explained at the state department, it would not influence negotiations now in progress, which probably will re- suit in changing the. regulations re- garding the armament of belIIgerenG merchant ships.

BIRTH OF A NATION FILMS START RIOT
 AT PHILA.1 THEATRE.

Philadelphia, Sept. 21-One hun dred policemen with drawn clubs and reyolvers charged a lcroFd of 1000 negroes last night in, front of the Forrest theatre, where the motion play, s'T1l0e Birth of a Nation" is be- ing presented. Fully 5000 white persons saw the onslaught.
 Broad street, for two blocks, pre- sented for a few moments 8 scene of the widest disorder. The charge of the police followed the throwing g of a brick by one of the negroes. The brick struck the door glass at the entrance of the Forrest theatre and shattered it.
 Instantly the police, who had been guarding the theatre entrance, pounc- ed on the negroes. Hats flew in the air, negroes were knocked to the ground and the larger part Of the offending mob fled down the street.
 The trouble lasted about two min minutes. EmpIoyes of the theatre and many others got clubs which had been held in reserve inside the thea tre and 50 men armed with these clubs quickly joined the police.
 At the moment when it was thought the main body of the negroes had dispersed well down Broad street, a second disturbance was be
  Broad streets. There a negro threw a brick, which struck Patrolman Wal lace Striker on the right arm. The officer turaRd on his assaila lant with a club and t.le negro ran with the po- 1iceman in pursuit.
 Fully 50 comrades followed Strilz- CT and they were joined by a yelling mob of 1000 whites, but the negro as- sailant escaped.
 Only one arrest was made While a few shots were fired no one was reported as being hit.
 A printed card was circulated in the negro sections of. the city during the day. This card contained the fol- lowing announcement:
 Rally Rally! Rally!''
 "A1I colored citizens and their white friends and sysnlpathizers are earnest Iy urged to assemble at the Forrest theatre, Broad and Sansom streets. on Monday night at 8 o'clock to make a dignif1ed protest against the photo play known as The Birth of a, Ma tion,' which is a horrible libel on and a most aggravating insult to every Afro-American.'

WEST INDIES WILL SEND REGIMENTAt
 UNIT TO EUROPE

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 21-Re- ports from Jamaica and other West Indian possessions of the British enn- plre Indicate that a sufficient number Of men to form a complete regimental unit will be ready to sail for EngIand q soon, although no definite word has been given as to when the call for them will be made. Already hundred of the pick of West Indian youths have volunteered and at their own cost and charges have found their way to England to offer themse Ives as recurits for Kitchener's army. and even greater numbers have enlisted in the various Canadian contin gents which have gone or are going to the front.
 The colonies are not-in a position to equip the men; they are merely furnishing the raw material which will be trained and armed in England. In addition to providing for a com p1ete regiment, the islands will un- dertake to fill the gaps caused by in evitab1e losses from time to tirne to the extent of at least 50 per cent of the original number.
 All the British colonies in the West Indies have voluntarily subscribed money or supplies to meet the Elm pire's needs-for the purchase of aerop1anes, machine guns, and for in cIdentals such as smoking supplies for the men in the trenches. In the case of Jamaica the government voted Q sum of $25O,O0O which was used to send cargo of sugar to the, mother country, while by public subscription funds have been collected to the sum of $200, ,000 for other objects In a country where the average earnings of 75 per cent. of the population is not more than $2O a year, and where citizens of opulence are scarce, it is declared that the islands showing has been a remarkably patriotic one

PRESIDENT TO TAKE UP
 MIDDIES' HAVING GASES

Washington, Sept. 21-Secretary Daniels expects to take up with Presi- dent Wilson, probably next Thursday. the report of the board which recent 1y investigated hazing charges at the naval academy.
 The board has recommended the dismissal of nine nidshipmen, five for more than one hazing offense each and four for faIsehood during the hearing. A dozen others, charged with only one hazing offense. are rec commended for punishment less than dismissal
 Secretary Daniels said a technical detail in conn ection with the case had delayed final disposition of the mat ter which he has already discussed with the President in a preliminary way.
