month and for the eight months peri
cd, and in February cotton shipments
showed an increase of approximately
$40, 900 over the same month a
year ago. Total cotton exports for
the eight month period, however, fell
below the 1914 figures by more than
$500 100000, the respective amounts
being for 1914 $498, 1859, and for
1915 $243,947,
Some idea of the part American
beef is playing in feeding the men in
the trenches may be gained from the
fact that exports of fresh beef in

Family of McNIanus.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Secretary
Bryan announced tonight that sat
fsfactory progress was being made in
negotiations with the Zapata-Vi1la
government for the payment of an

McManus, the American murdered by
Zapatista troops recently in Mexico
City.
1t was learned today that the
American government has made no
specific request for an apology for the

flew over McManus' home. When the
facts were reported at first to the
state department it made general
demand for reparation and indemni-

gret recently for the McManus Incl
dent, but made no mention of the

ST. PIERRE, Islands of St. Pierre
and Miquelon.-A colony without
bread winners. Such is the tiny In
suIar possession of France, the last
remaining vestige of her once great
empire in North America. The
''catch" upon which the whole indus
try of the islands is dependent is
known to be promising, but the fish
ing vessels swing idly at their moor
ings the dories are nested on the
beach and the travis are coiled in
tubs on shore. Every able-bodied
man who could meet the require
ments for military duty-there were
564 in all-has crossed the seas to
fight for the motherland.
Nearly 5000 miles of ocean sepa-
rates st. Pierre from the battlefelds
and the St. Pierrais, while intensely
loyal, know little of the causes of
the war and of it's progress. Since
the beginning of hostilities a strict
censorship of the cable has permitted
only vague tidings from the outside
world to reach the fisher folk. Oeca-
sionally a mysterious message from
Paris was received by the civil adj
ministrator, M. Chaubaud, and one
day the latter posted a notice an
nouncing that the time had come for
ST. Pierre and Miquelon to play it's
part in the world tragedy. All able
bodied men of fighting years were
ordered to be at the pier at O'Clock
on the morning of Feb. 3. Two hours
after the time set the steamer Chi
cago dropped anchor in the harbor,
and when she sailed again only old
men, women and children remained.
The French government Is paying
25 cents a day to the wife of every
fisherman-soldier, with an additional
allowance of 10 cents for each child.
The winters are long and hard and
fuel is a prime necessity. The soil
of the islands is barren and all food
stuffs must be imported. Many are
suffering for the cause of the allies.
Instead of the great sailing feet
| that usually comes from France for
the spring fishing it is exepcted that
steam trawlers will be sent. These
can be operated by comparatively
few men, thus releasing thousands of
fishermen for service on the war
ships. In this way the French gov

earlier they forced an unpopular gov

Growth

The Butterick Building,
our sixteen storied New York
home, is one of the notable
publication plants in the
world. 1t was built ten
years ago and was planned
to be sufficient for twenty
years to come.
But subsequent growth
has so exceeded expectation
that we are now obliged to
rent more space outside the
building than was required
for our entire business when
the building was erected.
The main factor in this
signal success has been, and
is, the popular appeal Of our
products.

FEWER STEAMERS
INCREASE COST
OF FUEL

A scarcity of tonnage because of the
European war Is expected to affect
Honolulu as other parts OF the world
in the importation of coal and com.
modities Steam freighters which a
year ago were abundant at Newcastle.
N. s. W., are In many instances en-
gagged in the transportation OF troops
and supplies from colonial ports to
Great Britain. A different type of
vessel is now available to bring fuel
to the Hawaiian Islands.
The high price Of charters, without
parallel in maritime history, has
brought about serious situation for
some of the. big shipping concerns
who now find it difficult to obtain
charters at any price. Numerous con-
Germs which operated fleets Of foreign
vessels before the commencement Of
the war, have since been compelled
to charter American vessels to care
for their constituents The situation
is not so serious to those who oper-
ated British steamers and vessels
which are still free to roam the seas.
The elimination of the vast feet of
Germans has made it necessary to.
handle the cargoes Of the neutral ma
tons In American, British or other
vessels flying the flags Of countries
other than Germany and Austria. The
demand combined with the
sudden activity in the movement of
cotton from the southern ports to. Eu-
rope has drained the Pacific coast of
nearly every available steamer, and
even of certain vessels which are
small and not suited for the transport
tation of this commodity across the
Atlantic.
The American owners or those con.
trolling local vessels by option or
charter are demanding every possible
penny for the use of their ships. Two
weeks ago one of the coasters. was
placed on the charter market and q
rate Of 1925 per day was demanded.
One week later when one Of the ship
pers came forward and prepared to
close the deal on this basis. he, was |
