San Marine Is situated between the

southwest of Rimini, an italian coast

The republic has one town. which lies

of 1850 feet. The city stands at the
south of this PERCEPTIONS rock, and Is
sheltered under the defenses Of the
mountain, whose three SUBMITS are

notes to other governments. but he
maintained that If Germany was TO be
called to account, Great Britain should
be treated in like manner.
Bryan Turned Down.
Bryan's position and Bryan's sug-
gestions were turned down flat by the
president the note to Germany was
not altered to meet his views; no pro-
test was sent to Great Britain.
While Germany was formulating
her reply to the first American note.
President Wilson seemed to awaken
to the fact that Bryan policies haa
been getting his administration IN
bad" with the American people, ana
suddenly the president abrogated the
'watchful waiting" Mexican policy
which Bryan had conceived and he
had endorsed, and without consulting
his secretary of state, sent an ultimat
UNI to the leaders in Mexico This
over riding Of the secretary of state
was the second serious affront offerec
Mr.. Bryan.
The Last Straw.
Then the second note to Germany
was drafted, but in drafting this paper
the president went out of his way to
humiliate Secretary Bryan; he did
not confer with the secretary Of state,
but he did several times confer With
Counselor Lansing. Mr. Bryan's sub
ordinate in rank, but his superior as
a diplomat. And this note was only
submitted to Mr.. Bryan. along with
the rest of the cabinet, when II was
finished. Mr. Bryan used that note.
and his disapproval of its tone and its
terms as his excuse for resigning.
In the cabinet, as it then stood,
only Postmaster General Burleson
sided with Bryan: even the "peace-at-
any price" Daniels, who has been
lifelong Bryanite, broke with his idol,
and somewhere mustered up the cour-
age to endorse the presidents note,
Bryan's disapprovai.
Diplomatic affairs, however, are not of
direct concern to the postmaster gen
eral. and HIS sympathy with Bryan
does not necessarily mean that he, too,
will leave the cabinet
What Bryan intends to do about II
all is for Bryan to say As yet ne has
not disclosed his plans for the future

COPPER AND ZINC.
Astounding Figures Showing consump.
ton Due to War.
lMInIng MOrId.

INNING Worlu.1
Considerable interest attaches 10 the
discussion now going on as TO the
amount of copper and zinc required by
the war.
A writer claims that s92,32G pounds
OF brass are being lost daily, or S32y, :
696,S00 pounds per annum, through
small-arm and artillery fire by the Ger
mans and Anstrians. Roughly speak
ing. cartridge brass averages about
two parts of copper to one part of zinc,
which would mean for such corr
sumption 10s,565,6OO pounds Of zinc
and 2171s1,200 pounds of copper per
annum, to which should be added, say
10.950,001 pounds OF copper per annum
lost on account OF rifing rings.
II Is reasonable to suppose that the
firing by the allies Is at least as great
as by their enemies, On the basis
Of estimates Of the writer quoted
above, and reckoning only the same
consumption by the allies, copper and
zinc would be under consumption by
the opposing European armies amount
ing to 456.250,000 pounds of copper
and 217,i75.000 pounds OF zinc per an
mum. This computation does not take
into account at all the naval or the
Italian. Asiatic or African campaigns,
the figures for which II added to the
foregoing would represent an aggre-
gate consumption equivalent to con-
siderably over one-fourth Of the norm
al annual copper production and to
perhaps l6 per cent OF the worlds zinc
output.

Friday night June 4, In celebration Of
the arrival of 800 zinc. BY the time
the band had been engaged, the price
had gone to $102 ton. BY the time
the uniformed players, instruments In
hand arrived in Joplin II was learned
$l05 had been paid. BY the end Of the
second selection 1t was s106. When
the program was half over 1t was re-
ported $40 had been paid, and before
the closing march 1t was learned on
reliable authority that base price or
SIP had been paid for local zinc ore"
