New York Port Losing Big
Prestige In Commerce By
Lack of Adequate Handling

reply that during this same period the
receipts at New York increased from
90, 434,614 bushels to 159,264,S6 BUSH
els, an increase of about 65,OOO,0OO
bushels, but there was also a steady
increase at the other American ports,
except Boston, during the same period
from 1909 to 1914, inclusive.
This struggle for commercial su-
premacy is no affair of day, month
or year, but is endless and calls for
the most earnest thought, the greatest
strategic ability. The principal strug-
gle has not opened along the Atlantic
coast, because, l believe, New York
has scarcely awakened to the danger
that threatens. When all of the forces
are aligned, possibly, with New York
against the wall, we shall realize that
we are at the beginning of the most
decisive battle yet fought on Amer1-
can SOIL In the meantime, let us as
simulate the fact that Montreal has
every facility-railroads elevators
and wharves-for the expeditions han
ding of grain, and that 1t is rapidly.
overcoming the handicap imposed I'M
til recently by lack of vessels. De-
spite the higher ocean freight anG
insurance rates, the autumnal and
spring ice hazard and the fact that
it is not an ice-free port, Montreal is
taking business away from New York.
Whatever may be said for or against
the views I am expressing, the official
statistics of both the United States
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1915-10-08

ard Canadian governments show that
the grain movement by way Of Mon
treal has increased enormously,
while that by way of New York mas
not even kept pace, I believe, with
the growth of the country and the in
crease in grain acreage.
Turning from freight to vessels
that carry it, we will consider the
statistics relating to the number and
registered tonnage of vessels in the
foreign trade that entered and clear
ed from American ports in 1910 and
1914.
During five years, 1910-1914, Bos-
ton, with a total net registered ton
mage of 5,5S0,621 tons in 1914, show
ed an increase of 3,O37,353 tons, or
1874 per cent, while New York, with
total of 31,199,941 tons in 1911,
showed an increase of only 1904 ,22o
tons, or 21.9 per cent"
He cited other figures to similar eff
feet, and said:
These indicate, l believe, that the
, prestige of New York, is as seriously
threatened by other ports ON the At
lantic seaboard as is that of Bucalo
by other ports on the Great Lakes,
and, in my opinion, it is as imperative
to act promptly and on a large, un.
selfish, scientific scale in respect Of
ess that is rightfully ours"

'WARM UP TO THE ARMY
AND NAVY A LITTLE"
JUDGE III. BLOUNT.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. s.
Judge James H. Blount, of this city
general counsel of the National De-
tense league, speaking last night
on Neutrality and Preparedness" at
q conference on national defense held
as a sequel to the G. A. r. reunion,
vigorously assailed the recent action
Of Great Britain in declaring cotton
contraband of war, as being a direct
violation of the Declaration of Lon
den.
He said this could not have hap
pened but for this nations present In
ability to take any prompt aggressive
action to resent violation of our
rights.
Judge Blount was volunteer in the
war with Spain and in the Philippine
insurrenction, and later was a Judge
Of the court of first instance in The
Philippine Islands for a number of
years.
Passing briefly owed Germany's vio-
lation of American rights in Staying

he devoted himself principally to DEM
onstrating that the recent British or
Ger in council making cotton contra
band is a fragrant violation Of our
rights as neutrals and equivalent t.
the conffscation of large part of the
American cotton crop, by making it
unsaleable to Germany and Austria
Hungary.
He declared that ne took his views
on neutrality from Thomas Jefferson
and his ideas on preparedness for war
mot from the amiable nonsense of Mr..
Bryan nor the war-whoops Of Colonel
Roosevelt" but from George Washing

"The same hand that wrote the
declaration of independence" said
Judge Blount, laid down the law Of

ject of neutral commerce in 1898. In
that year, Jefferson, then secretary OF

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Oct. S.-New York
City is losing much of its prestige IN
commerce, according to Frank S.
Ellsworth, secretary of the New York
State Waterways association, in an
address before the sixth annual con-
vention of that association which met
a. Syracuse today. On the one hand,
he declared Montreal and other Can
adian lake and tidewater ports were
making lavish expenditures Of money
to provide facilities of every kind for
present and prospective commerce,
and were constantly increasing the
amount of grain handled-grain that
could, he said, properly be handled
through New York. On the other hand
Atlantic ports such as Baltimore Bos-
ton, New Orleans and Galveston,
showed large increases than New York
in the number of vessels entering and
clearing port.
He said in part:
"The grain receipts at Montreal lii
1909, were 1851, 119 bushels; in 1910
they were 1,S76,171 bushels greater.
in 1911 they were 5,774,176 bushels
greater; in 1912 they were USELESS
bushels greater, and in 1913 they were
22,527,11S bushels, or more than 50
per cent, greater than in 1909. and
i. 1914 they totaled 99,O54,392 bushels,
an increase Of 1874 per cent. over
1909, and were only 6OOOO,O0O bushels
less than New Yorks total for the
same year. 1t can be pointed out in

JUDGE JAMES III. BLOUNT.

state, wrote to our minister in Lon
don, Mr.. Pinckney, apropos of GER
tain British interference with our
commerce:
Reason and usage have establish
ed that when two nations go to war
those who choose to remain in peace
retain their natural right to pursue
their agriculture, manufactures and
other vocations, and to carry the
produce of their industry for *
change to all nations, belligerent or
neutral, as usual
Mr.. Jefferson, of course, excepted
implements of war.
What we ought to do at once is to
say to England: Strike cotton from
your list of contraband and put #
back on your free list, or you don't
get any more munitions.
Then we ought to set our house in
order, and command the respect of
other nations for our rights by a de
cent national preparedness for war.
There may be such thing as being
too proud to fight but there is also
such thing, sometimes, as being too
proud not to fight If the president
were to ask me for the best piece Ct
advice I had in my shop, l would say
t. him:
Warm up to the army and navy
little, Mr.. President. The country
is tired of being slapped in the face
Then 1 would conclude these re.
marks to you, by calling his attention
to the following paragraph from Pres
ident Was1ington's fifth annual adj
dress to congress:
" There is a rank due the United
States among nations which will be
withheld, if not absolutely Sost, by
the reputation of weakness. If we de
sire to avoid insult, We must be able

must be known that we are at all
times ready for war"

Dusky Campers.

Mrs. Charles Glass. Of 18 Lineau

from a fruitless trip to West Hawley,
Penn. only to find that boy resem-
bling her missing son had been taken
away from a band of gypsies camping
near Kittanning. Penn. She has tele-

haired child. found in the gypsy camp.
II the photograph resembles James
Douglas Glass the mother will start
for Kittanng. for she has vowed she
will search Cor her small son until
she is convinced he is no longer alive.
The Kittanning police. aided by two
detectives from Pittsburgh. raided the
gypsy camp on Thursday night and
brought the child to Headquarters.
Protesting that the boy was their own
flesh and blood. the alleged gypsy par
ents for a time threatened trouble.
but finally agreed to leave the child
with the police until it is determined
whether or not he is the lad kid
mapped nearly year ago.
His measurements were taken and his
profile compared with photographs. Of
the Glass child. Since the boy has
probably grown during the last year,
police officials could not get satisfac-
ton from this method of identification.
The alleged gypsy parents have raven
black hair and swarthy skin, while the
boy has light hair and clear COM
plexion.
In the future, Mrs. Glass said last
night, she and her husband will insist
that persons who claim to have found
their son send a photograph of the
child. otherwise they would spend all
their income travelling about the coun-
try on goose chases, she said.

RICH PATIENT SAID
TO HAVE BEEN VICTIM
Institution Officials Silent on
Story He Jumped from
Seventh Story Window

Detectives of the I'd Branch were
ordered last night to investigate why
the Polytechnic Hospital neglected to re-
port the suicide of private patient,
Frederick Settler, of Mount Vernon,
who threw himself from a seventh
story window on the night of August
II. Until last evening the Coroners'
Office had received no notification of
the mans death.
1t is not known why the hospital
endeavored to keep the suicide a secret.
Officials of the institution refused TO
discuss the matter last night. Through
the police, however, the details of the
case became known.
Settler was prosperous druggist OF
POI West Lincoln Avenue, Mount YER

room, and was under the care of DR..
Bishop. 1t is understood he was suf-
fering from the drug habit.

Settler was carried upstairs again
and died few hours later. 1t was not
until yesterday afternoon that the po-
lice of the West Forty-seventh Street
station got wind of what had occurred.
Coroner Riordan was notified and be-
gan an investigation.
Settler was fifty years old. His wife
and son, when seen last night, said
they had been informed by the hospital
that Settler died natural death. His
body was buried in Mount Vernon.
