LONG RACE Is CALLED OFF.
Motor Boats Will Not Sail from
New York te San Francisco.

There will be no race for motor b-ats
from New York to San Francisco. This
event. which has been talked of for a
year, has been called off by the Panama
Pacific International Exposition. 1t was
to have been started last Friday, but
only one boat, the Lady Baltimore was
built for the race. and although others
were mentioned as likely to start none
formally entered.
Thomas ID. Bowes. of Philadelphia, was
chairman Of the Eastern committee. He
has issued q lengthy statement giving
the history Of the race and explaining
the plans made by his committee. The
original circular of this race said that
$1,000 Appropriated by the exposition
was to be used for prizes. Mr.. Bowes
says that the unsettled conditions in
Mexico, particularly on the west coast.
where the boats we're to make stops to
take on fuel and the general business
apathy have been largely responsible for
the calling on of the race. He also says
that the Eastern committee did all it
could to make the race a success and
puts the responsibility up to the exposi-
tion committee.

FROZEN MEATS HELP SIPPLX
USED BY N.ARIfiNG NATIONS

London, acknowledgements
ence OF The Associated Press.)-An
authority on the frozen meat trade
is of the opinion that up to the
present Germany's meat supply has
not been seriously affected by The
war, but as in all the other belliger-
ent nations, economy there in this
respect viii be necessary. Of the
general effects of the war on Europ-
a meat supplies he says:
In France the hostile occupation
of considerable tracts OF territory
has certainly rendered to curtail the
quantity OF meat available, but the
remaining stocks Undoubtedly have
provided disproportionately heavy
killings, otherwise prices would nave
advanced more than has been the
case. Probably the larger proportion
of the 2,O00,0 900 head of cattle in
the eastern provinces, available in
July last. are permanently lost to
France, as meat producers. On the
other hand, France having removed
import duties and restrictions, has
already imported large quantities OF
frozen meat, and has arranged for
still larger imports in the near fu-
ture. This change of policy is so
marked, and its effect likely to be SO
far-reaching, hat it can hardly fail
to influence materially the course of
the whole frozen meat trade for some
time to come. Formerly France
kept out frozen meat to protect her
farmers. Now hat country is ad-
hitting frozen meat, not only to sup
ply military requirements. but also
to protect her flocks and nerds from
undue depletion.
I'm Germany. the pressure of de-
mand for army requirements has pro-
badly been met thus far from doIles-
tic sources, supplemented by captures
from France and Belgium, and i'm
portation from small neighboring
states, who appear to have slaughter
ed stock freely: but on the otner
hand the Russian supply of cattle ana
feeding stuffs and the limited re-
ceipts of froZen Australian mutton
and beef have been cut off. In effec,
the value OF meat in Germany does
not appear to have been seriously
affected up to the present, but indi
cations are not wanting to show thai
greater economy in consumption is
now being called for.
Austria is practically s~elf-contain.
ed in respect of meat requirement.

Balkan States provided some welcome
supplies in normal times. These ar,

Christian church than Speaker.
Many a minister has been hinder

the failure OF the people to stand
by him as they should. He said In
almost every community there We're

The latter class are the up ana

of life came only to tire over-com-
ers.' Be thou faithful unto death
and | viii give thee a crown of life.
To him that overcometh will l give

final service many responded to the
appeal and gave themselves to the
Christian life.
The meetings have had Gods
blessing upon them from the begin
ning' and not a-single service al
been held in which somebody did not
seek the way of the Christian life.
The attendance has been remarkably
sustained, increasing with every
meeting. About 200 people, inciud-

young people and boys and girls are

So many people were glad to give
something so that nobody felt any
financial pressure in the matter.

DR.. Mahood pronounced the benedic-

mid-week prayer meeting. This will

morning hour and at 1880 p. m. there
will be a great jubilee meeting. The
chorus directed by Mrs. Murray,
which has done such fine service, will
lead the congregational singing.
There viii be special music and a
short sermon. This service will be
the climax of this series of meetings
and the people are invited.
