Greenfield yesterday in an attempt to To-
cate her husband Friday evening, after
playing a game of cards with neighbor
according to Mrs. Wood, her husband lost
his temper, packed two suit cases, took all
the money in the house, about $500, saying
he would never return and walked off.
The supposition is that Wood went to
Turner's Falls, the nearest center. Mr..
and Mrs. Wood have had 10 children. Mr..
Wood has an equity in his farm of 5000
or more and plenty of stock He is not a
drinking man They formerly lived in

Vermont Savings and Loans.
(Randoph Herald and News. J

State Bank Commissioner f. c. Will
hams s annual report is good reading,
with one exception, to which we allude
lower down. There has been an increase
III almost every item connected with
savings bank statistics The total num-
ber of depositors has gained 1857 and
deposits have increased 81 ,607 ,2S6.03 the
past year. There are in all 2lS,372 de-
positors, of whom 191, ,729 are Vermont
crs. Doubtless this refers to separate de-
posit accounts and one person may open
several with different banks. Otherwise
it would appear that over half of the in
habitants of Nermost are savings bank
depositors. Certainly q very large pro
portion of them are. The aggregate OF
deposits approaches one hundred mil
lion doIlars-$95, 1863, 1888 exactly. The
savings banks, including the trust COM
panics. pay taxes of 1862, ,701.S9 to the
State this year-a much larger amount
than could be realized by taxing this
money directly to the owner. The only
uncomfortable feature of the report IS
that of loans made bv the banks on
real estate. Over two-thirds is placed
outside of Vermont. As we understand
| it, this state places no restriction on
| banks in favor of the home borrower.
They can loan where interest and Sc
curity are most favorable, regardless of
the fact that Vermost provides five
sixths of the funds and that the first
| duty of the state is to itself. If our in
| formation is correct, New York, Massa'
/ chusetts and other states so adjust then
taxation and investment laws that the
home borrower has a margin in his
favor and banks find it Improbable tc
send their funds to the West while there
are any reasonable calls within the state
that remain unsupplied. Our banking in
stitutions are now so we'll established
and so fiourishing that the borrowing
needs Of the State can be safely givei
attention.

ORDER IN INTEREST

Bell Telephone Co. to Remove Lower
Steps from Poles - Twin State

DR.. ANNA H. SHAW SUES
TO KEEP HER AUTOMOBILE
Court Action Instituted as Step in
Fight Against Pennsylvania
Taxation,

PHILADELPHIA, July 15.-Counsel
for DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, president
of the National American Woman Suf-
frage Association. has instituted equity
proceedings to enj6in the Delaware
county authorities from selling at pub
lie auction the little yellow automobile
Eastern Victory. to satisfy a tax as
sessment.
This announcement was made by Miss
Lucy Anthony, secretary to DR.. Shaw
who added that the suffrage leader was
no longer resident of this state. but
had made her home in New York since
she returned from abroad in 1912. The
officials claim the $120 taxes are for
arrearages due from Dr. Shaw since
1913, when the suffrage leader declined
to make out a list of her taxable prop
erty on the ground that she was not a
voter and therefore was not subject to
taxation.
The car. which was the gift of New
York surragists, was seized at Moy-
Ian, Pa, and is to be sold at auction

Mr.. ROCKEFELLER ARRIVES
AT HIS CLEVELAND ESTATE
Trip of Oil King Delayed Owing to
Fear Of Attack Similar to That
Upon Mr.. Morgan.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 15.-John D.
Rockefeller, the oil magnate. arrived
here this morning from Tarrytown'
N. Y. over the New York Central rail-
road, for the summer at Forest Hill, his
Cleveland residence.
His trip, which was to have been
made prior to his seventy sixth birth
day. July 8, was delayed because of the
attack by Frank Holt upon ]. P. Nor
gan and consequent fear that Rookie
feller might be the object of a similar
outrage by a crank.
The oil king was accompanied by Miss
Lucy Spelman, sister of Mrs. Rockefel-
Ter. who has died since the last visit OF
the family to their former residence
here. Mr.. Rockefeller looked more worn
and feeble than year ago. but ap-
peared in iovial spirits. He inquired
anxiously whether insects, which have
wrought great harm to his Pocantico
Hills, n. Y, estate, had damaged Forest
HILL and seemed relieved when told
that no injury had occurred here.
Mr.. Rockefeller was indefinite as to
the length of his stay here, but said il
| would be a good, long one"

CHINESE WILL OPERATE
NEW TRANSPACIFIC LINE
Will Take Advantage Of Congested
Freight Conditions and Com
pete With Japan.

A Chinese steamship line to operate
from Shanghai and other southern
China ports to the United States is
about to be established to compete with
the Japanese lines which now domi-
nate the transpacif1c trade, according 6
to advices received by the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce.
The Pacific trade is seriously disturb
ed because of the recent order reserv-
ing for the use of japanese shippers all
space in ships under subsidy from the
Japanese government.
According to the bureau advices.
Fung Sui, representing a syndicate OF
Chinese capitalists, Is on his way to
the United States to close contracts for
material to construct fleet of five YES
sells for freight and passenger service.
The ships will make Shanghai termi-
nal port and it is expected that the
service will be extended to Hongkong
and Manila. Honolulu will be port of
call on both east and west bound trips.
In order to take advantage Of the con-
gested freight situation in the far east
due to the withdrawal of space in
Japanese ships, the report says, two
vessels probably will be purchased in
the near future to start the new serv-
ice.

DOUBT KA|SER'S ABILITY
OEND WAR IN OCTOBER
Official Circles Here Think Conflict
Will Continue Another
Year.

Washington officialdom takes little
stock in the kaiser's prediction that he
expects to END the war in October
which prediction, according to cabled
reports, was made to a committee Of
German bankers.
The general opinion here is that the
war will drag along for at least an
other year. Until the discussion of this
subject was revived by the statement
of the German emperor there had been
practically no speculation as to the
probable extent of the war for the
last couple of months because the
failure of the allies to make their
great spring drive has caused the deep
rooted impression that the war almost
certainly will last another year or
another year and d half

Difference of Opinion.

There appears to be much difference
of opinion among officials as to how
long Germany can endure the financial
strain of the war without becoming
bankrupt In some quarters it is con-
tended that the thorough organization
of the country, both in respect to the
military and industrial enterprises,
would prevent the financial chaos that
might occur in other countries similar
ly situated.
The war debt of Germany, it is ar
gued, cannot be reckoned on the same
basis as that of the nations of the
allies. And even if Germany does be-
come bankrupt. it is believed she will
be able to keep up the fight for some
time after that condition arises.
An example of this was provided in the
civil war when the south continued the
struggle for many months after her
financial resources were wrecked and
her money had become so deprecated
that it required a ridiculously large
amount of it to make an ordinary COM
mercial purchase.

ATLANTA, Ga, July 15.-The Georgia

Bankers Are Worried.

Tn financial circles it was the belief
that the German bankers are worried
over the outlook and undoubtedly
would like to have the assurance that
the war will not last through another
winter. October would most likely be
the decisive month, for the reason that
If the war does not end then it will
certainly, or almost certainly, go over
for a test of strength in another sum-
mer campaign.
Inability to get correct estimate of
financial conditions in Germany, the
movement of gold to neutral countries
in payment for purchases and other
similar information made bankers hesi-
tate about expressing an opinion.
