Will REMOVE BAN
ON SOME EXPORTS
Britain to Allow Passage of
German Goods For Which
Americans Had Con-
tracted.

washington, d. c., Aug. 30.-Con-
SESSIONS in the enforcement against
American commerce of the British or
der in council as today as
the result Of influential negotiations
just completed by the foreign trade adj
visers of the state department. The
British ambassador, Sir Cecil Spring.
Rice, sur the trade advisers that
their informal representations in cases
where the British order have caused
undue hardship" to American com
merce will receive special consideration.
Information in the hands of the state
department that private brokers were
securing permits in London for special
shipments of American goods from
Rotterdam, while the trade advisers
were unable even to present special
cases, was transmitted to London.
The ambassador called at the state
department personally to explain the
extent Of British concessions, which
are especially intended to meet the
growing complaint of American i'm
porters that their Christmas trade is
threatened by failure to obtain goods
which they had contracted.
Generally speaking, it is the inten-
ton of the British government to per-
nit the passage through the blockade
lines OF gOOQS Tor which the American
importers AVE entered into contract
with German and Austrian firms. Here
tofore 1t has been required that the
money shall have actually been paid
for the goods. Now 1t will be sufficient
to show that they were regularly con-
tracted for and that the American i'm
porter is really the person ~esponsible
for them and title rests with him.
Goods valued at many millions of dol
lars have accumulated at Rotterdam
and await transportation to the United
States. The order applies to these, but
whether 1t will extend to goods yet in
German factories, but under contract
for delivery on this side of the At
lantic, is yet undetermined.
The success of private interests in
London represented by special attor-
neys in securing the release Of about
100000 worth of such goods now on
the docks, is explained at the British
embassy here as due to the fact that
the local attorneys there were able to
secure n present to the British au-
thorities the proof required as to the
character Of the goods and the con-
dittons of contract. Now it is planned
to permit American importers to pre-
sent proof at the British embassy here.
which, it is believed will greatly facili-
tate importations. The entire RESPONSE
bility Is placed by the British authors
ties on the German government and it
is alleged that a contrary impression
has been sought to be created because
of Ill feeling against Great Britain.

new PEACE PLANS
SPRUNG BY VILLA
Washington Agents Say indie
pendent Faction Is at Work
to Compose Turbulent
Elements.

washington, Aug. 31.-Villa and Ia
pata agencies today said that a peace
convention soon would be called in the
neutralized territory in Mexico to set
up a provisional government. Inde-
pendent M~exicans, yet unaffiliated
with any of the factions, would take
part, they said, and it was possible
that the Panama American conferences
would be asked to arrange the details.
The delay in receiving General Car
ranza's reply to the Pan-American
peace appeal has raised hopes that
influences are at work to induce him
to participate. The Villa and Zapata
adherents, however, announce their in
tention Of proceeding without Car
rama II necessary. CaPranza troops
in northeastern Mexico were reported
today being concentrated to defend
Monterey against hte attack of the
Villa army.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 30.-Officiai
dispatches from Vera Cruz today tell
of the receipt of mail reports there on
the killing of E.. F. Welles, an American
auditor of the Tobacco Plantation com
pany. No details were given, further
than that Welles was killed by bandits,
who blew up a train and shot he pas
sengers of whom Welles was one.
The state department today acknowl-
edged receipt of General Zapata's &C
ceptance Of the Pan-American peace
proposal. Favorable replies now have
been received from practically all
chiefs outside the Carranza forces.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE
PRICES STILL OFF
Despite Huge Shipments Of
Gold and Securities Rates
Refuse to Rise.

New York. Aug. 31.-England's s45,-
000, 900 shipment Of gold and securities.
which reached here yesterday from
Halifax, produced virtually no effect
whatever today on foreign exchange
rates. Pounds sterling were quoted at
S4.62, h lowest price aver recorded
here, which was reached last Saturday.
Francs also were weaker, today's
quotation Of 5.99h being i cent low
er than Saturdays close. Lires, how
ever, were slightly stronger, being
quoted at $50, as against 6.52 on Sat-
urday.
What is to be done with h s25,oo0,-
900 Of American securities which
formed part of the shipment was the
subject Of speculation beyond stating
that the total of American securities
sent here for Great Britain's account
In this country and the previous ship
ment was between $50, 600, 900 and $780,
900, 900, consignees Of the shipment
had nothing to say. 1t had been popu-
larly believed that these securities
would be used as a basis for the estab-
lishment of some sort of foreign credit
here.
Adjustment of the situation, it was
said. awaits the arrival of British and
French financiers sent here from Lon
don and Paris.

Sioux City. Ia. Aug. 80. 1915.
Whlle none OF the regular weather
stat1ons In the reports received at
Sioux City show any killing frost last
night, advices from Tribune CORE
spondents are that killing frosts did
occur last night in the north central
and northeastern sections Of Iowa,
causing extensive damage to the be-
lated corn crops In those districts. The
corn in the northeastern part Of Iowa
is considerably behind that in north
western Iowa, due to the generally
sour" condition of the ground, making
1T very sensitive to a surplus of mois-
ture.
At Mason City, Ia, last night the
thermometer marking was 80 degrees
above zero. 2 degrees below the point
for killing frost. The estimate this
morning is that corn and late vege-
tables have been seriously damaged.
The low register for Sioux City last
night was 3S degrees above zero, safe.
ly above the point for killing frost,
but PROBABLY low enough to show frost
trace on low grounds. Experience in
the past has shown that the lower
markings vary a little from surface
temperatures, especially from those Of
the lower lands. Some farmers around
Sioux City claim they observed frost
early this morning.
Indications today are that all South
Dakota points escaped damage, either

predictions for warmer weather give
renewed hope that a large part of the
corn crop in this region may yet reach
maturity in spite Of an unfavorable
season.
The low marking at Sioux Falls last
night was 3S, with light frost on the
low lands, but the assurance is given
that even the most tender vegetables
were not injured. Mitchell, Yankton,
