Her hand, a-glitter with splendid.

edge OF the tea table. He bent over
and looked at them closely.
May I say, Mr. Headland. that all
her late grace's jewels have been
identified by her banker, to whose

she said, with just the shadow OF an
indignant note in her low, sweet
voice.

Narkom, as they went up the stairs.

servants could get into the room, a
horrible sight awaited them. On the

as the maid says she left them when
she went out and met the young duke

His brows knotted, his voice slipped
off into reflective silence; he took his
chin between his thumb and forehn-

moment, however, "Mr. Narkom," he
inquired, were the silva Stones found
to have been stolen at the same time

their loss learned of later"
"Oh, at the very instant the body

NO; only the silva Stones"

TRADE |S N ] I NEEDED
 BY GERMANS

BERLIN, July 17-German business circles are not particularly concerned about the war with Italy trade with that country having fallen off sharply before it threw in it's fortunes with the Entente Powers. In 1913 Ger many's imports from Italy amounted to $75,000, ,000, and it's exports thereto $93.600,000, but the recent volume of the war trade movement was much
 less than these figures. Italy has been taking, since the war began, more of German iron and steel than previously, but the German market and those of Scandinavian countries are now keeping the iron works so busy that the cessation of Italian orders Is not expected to influence
 the existing upward tendency of prices Besides these goods Germany's exports to Italy distribute themselves over great variety of wares, very few of which exceeded s1,000 ,000 In
The Cordova daily times., 1915-07-17

value; coal amounted to s3,5O0 900, and woolen goods and leather each to nearly s3,00O,OOO. Under imports, raw silk alone represented more than one third of the whole, with $26, 6,000 00O: {: raw hemp reached s3.0O0, ,000, and al monds nearly as much, but all other articles were shipped in smaller values.
 It had been hoped when the war began that Italy would prove very i'm portant to Germany as an alternative trade route with the United States and other over-sea countries, in addi- tion to Holland and the Scandinavian countries: but these hopes have not been realized to any considerable ex- tent. Some months ago it was re ported, for example. that hundreds of thousands of bales of American cotton were lying at Genoa, but very little of it found its way to Germany. It was claimed by the Italian authorities that their railways were not able to move it, but it is suspected that they did not wish to move. Oranges, how ever, have been coming into Germany in the usual amounts; and as Germany has hitherto obtained by far the larg- est part of it's supplies from Spain, 1t seems probable that these ship ments have latterly been by way of Italy.
