.nidable force into the field at short
notice. according to Piero Gianolio the
american vice and deputy consul at
Turin. Italy.
Mr. Gianolio is in Washington for
brief visit He left Italy after the
earthquake. but says he does not ap-
prehend that the catastrophe will in
ure business conditions TO any alarming
xtent.
Tho Italian government has in
ereased the number of troops under
arms from that in ordinary peace times"
said Mr.. Gianoto. That is, instead of
rhree classes that are in the field ready

here are some 100000 Italian soldiers
equipped for service
The fghtiBg strength Of the Italian
army In time of war is approximately
100000 soldiers. SO that about half OF
ne total number are ready for war. At
his time all men available for military

DISTRICT NOT LIABLE.
Court Directs Verdict on Jacob
Scheuch's Claim for Damages.

Justice Gould of the District Supreme
Court today exonerated the District of
Columbia from liability for damages
to citizen who was injured when
driving a wagon over the cover to GER
tain coal vaults constructed by the
federal government in the rear Of the
old Ford's Theater building.
The court directed a verdict in favor
Of the District In a suit brought by
Jacob Scheuch for $4,000 damages for
injuries received when horse driven
by him over the covering of the vaults
November 16. 1910. broke through the
cover and threw Scheuch out Of the
wagon.
The plaintiff claimed that by reason
of the fact that the District of Co
lumbia is charged with the care of
streets and alleys it should have dis
covered the inadequate construction Of
the cover and notified the federal gov
ernment of its condition.
Assistant Corporation Counsel White
ford contended that the District lacked
authority to enforce its recommenda-
ton to the federal government and
should not be held liable for a condi-
ton which 1t could not remedy.

A WELCOME ASSURANCE.

The assurance of the Secretary of the Navy that The war fleet of the United States was never in better shape 10 fight than at present will be well come news to those who realize that our national destiny is in great meas ure dependant on The navy. And, com ing at the present time when the world is filled with strife, when doubt of the present and fear of the future. i'll the minds of men and each day is pregnant with possibilities of further interna- tional dIscord. it Is doubly welcome. Each day of the continuance of the war makes more apparent the the necessity of keeping this primary bulwalk of our national defense in a state of the high est efficiency as it is clear that despite our most sincere wishes to maintain strict neutrality We are in hourly danger that some untoward act of the helliBerents may draw us from our
 
 security into the whirling torrent of strife. Discord stands just without our doors and it is admittedly a task re- quiring caution md careful judgment to avoid the possibility of it's entrance into our midst
 The repeated statements uttered by those who were in position to know the facts to the effect that the navy was in anything but a state of efficien- cy, have been most disouieting and the knowledge that in many cases the statements have come from naval off cers of high rank has not served to relieve them of ominous portent. It is, therefore, to be hoped that this as- surance is based upon certainties and is not merely nasty reply to the stinging criticism which has been heaped upon the Navy Department much of which is no doubt undeserved Every confidence is felt that Secretary Daniels really has the best interest of the navy at heart and will ultimately if 1t has not been done already. place the navy in such q state that it will not only be our national pride but also have our confidence as the mainstay Of our national security

plete loss of German trade it is back almost to its old proportions. The one difference Is now that our trade with Germany Is not direct. but Is being car ried on largely through neutral coun- tries.
 Imports from Germany through the port of New York in November exceed ed s9000 900 and were more than half a million dollars greater than the i'm ports for the same month last year Exports to Germany direct were negli- gible. although in November, 1913. they exceeded s7,O00000 But the exports to Denmark jumped from about s50o,- GOO in November. 1913. to over s7.o00,- 900 in November of this year. Sweden and and Norway are buying through New York more than five times as much as they did last year.
 It is practically certain that the in- creased imports of the Scandinavian are VII NS' man account. There is nothing to in terfere with their trade with Germany through Baltic ports. for the English feet ia not on the Baltic and the Rus sian fleet is kept in port. On the show Ing we are actually buying as much from Germany as we ever did and are selling a very much larger amount of goods than before the war broke out. This is evidenced further by the quota tions for exchange on Germany. which are far lower than they were before the war.
 The increase in German imports brings the import trade of the country back to the normal The loss of re-
 venues from customs collections, made the ground for the imposition of the
 new war taxes" is on the showing Iattrihutable not to any decrease in the
 value of imports but entirely to the
