AMSTERDAM, Jan. S.-Despite the
Official denials OF Germany that there
has been the slightest interference
with the movements OF Cardinal Mer-
cier, all OF the local newspapers print
ed extended stories insisting that his
eminence actually Is under detention.
They assert that armed guards have
been posted at the cardinals palace
and that he and the members OF his
immediate suite have been prohibited
leaving.
In addition, VaZdias news agency
asserts that the dean and cure OF
Gheel have been arrested because
they endorsed the cardinals utter
ance that the Belgians were In no way
bound TO obey the orders OF German
officials.
Advices from Berlin indicate thai
the report that Cardinal Mercier hac
been interfered with has created much
excitement In Catholic circles. Ger
imam church digniraries are said Il
have called upon the imperial chancel
lor and pointed out to him that an,
interference whatever with the move
ments or utterances OF the Belgian
/ church head will be deeply resented

II Is sisted here that II was be

DUST PROVES
CITY OWNERSHIP
IS PROFITABLE
Park Concessions Show Balance
of $4,000 on Right Side of
Ledger
CANOE SHELTER Is
BEST MONEY-MAKER
Tidy Profits Also Made by Res
taurants' and Lunch
Counters

That the city can successfully oper-
ate restaurant and other concessions
is proven by reports in the office OF
Park Commissioner Dust showing that
the operation OF the Belle Isle casino
the skating pavilion. canoe shelter
and lunch stall, and the restaurant in
Palmer park, last season, netted the
city a profit of approximately $4,000
Commissioner Dust originated the idea
of taking over these concessions and
in two years has demonstrated that
the city can operate them success
fully. AT the same time he has aimed
to give the public as much as possible
for its money.
The volume OF business done by the
five concessions amounted TO $110,-
566.52, divided about as follows: Ca
sino, $47 200, skating pavilion, S30..
600; Palmer park restaurant, $4,000:
canoe shelter, S14,S7l, and Belle Isle
lunch stall, s4,363 The canoe shelter
returned the largest profit about SS,-

with a balance OF $4,000. The skat-
ing pavilion and lunch stall together
made $500. and the RESTAURANT in

RATE REDUCED
Total Deaths Show Decrease De-
spite Large Increase in the
Population

In spite OF the increase in Detroit s
population from 520,50S in 1913 10 537,
$50 in 1914, according TO the United
States governments figures, the an
nual report Of Health officer w. III.
Price shows a total number of deaths
for 1914 OF only S,3S6, as compared
with 1896 in 1918, reduction OF 609.
In the case of infants, the deaths
for 1913 were 1926, as against 1920
for 1914, but as the number OF births
was considerably greater this year,
the mortality rate has been appreei-
ably reduced.
The educational campaign carried
on by the newspapers and the Board
OF Health this last year ON, the sub
ject or diphtheria, is, in DIR. Prices
opinion, the cause of the gratifying
showing made in regard To that dis
ease. Only l57 persons died from
diphtheria In 1914, as compared with
273 In 1913.
Only 7l persons died from typhoid
fever in 1914, as compared with l4S
deaths in 1913, and DR.. Price says
that the correction of certain indus
trial and unsanitary conditions in the
| city, as the nipping OF at least two
epidemics In the bud that threatened
TO start from contaminated milk. are
responsible for the low death rate
from typhoid fever.
In regard TO scarlet fever from
which only 81 persons died I'm 1914 as
against los i'm 1913. Or Price is OF
the opinion that II Is largely luck.
