Old Solder Visits Birthplace.

Last week Prof. Sam W. Thomas, of
St. Louis, visited his birthplace at Per
ryville, Boyle county, for the first time
since the Civil War. He was born in
PerrYville iu 1S45. and when five years
of age was taken by his parents TO In
diana. where he grew into manhood.
When the Civil War began he enlisted
in the Union Army, and the next time
he saw his old Kentucky home was when
he marched with the Federal Army in
October, 1862, and was badly wounded
in the famous battle of Perryville. AT
the close of the war he settled in St
Louis, and although badly crippled he
has for many years been teacher of
penmanship in leading business col
lege in that city, and is also an expert
violinist. His father was Methodist
circuit rider. He visited his birthplace
after over half century's absence, to
see if he could find any of his relatives
still living.

After referring to the ultimate con-
sequences of repeated small successes,
the British observer adds:
ut must not, however, be thought
that this is other than very slow and
laborious progress. or that the final
result is within immediate reach. Yet
every capture by the allies Of trench
represents lost ground for which the
enemy expended much blood and
treasure, and is a step forward in the
process Of attrition which eventually
will bring the war to an end"

WILL ADJUST FINANCES.
Bankers to Handle Affairs Involving
United States and England.

Formal announcement has been made
by the Treasury Department that the
negotiations between the United States
government and Great Britain which
resulted in the visit of Sir George
Paish to Washington had been con-
cluded, and that any future financial
adjustments involving the two coun-
tries, if necessary, would be made
through the banks and bankers.
The statement follows:
"The Secretary of the Treasury an
nounced today that In view of the fact
that exchange between the United
States and the United Kingdom has be-
come practically normal, it Is no longer
necessary for the two governments to
exercise their good offices in connection
herewith, and that any further con-
sideration of the question should be
left to the banks and bankers of the
respective countries"
The announcement was to be made
Simultaneously here and in London.

faith would solve the troubles OF the
world. His sermon was shorter than

There was less of the picturesque IN

SUPPLEMENTARY ORDER
FOR EASTERN RAILROADS
Commission Directs Preservation of
Existing Groupings and Rela-
tionships" in Rates.

In an order issued today by the in
terstate commerce commission, supple
mentary to the orders granting an in
crease of per cent in certain spec
flied freight rates, the eastern rail-
roads were directed to preserve exist
ing groupings and relationships. even
though by so doing some rates are in
creased slightly more than per cent
In the opinion of the commission
such relationships "in the interests OF
carriers and Of competition between
shippers and receivers" ought to be
maintained.
The commission further fixed a def
mite percentage Of the New York. Chi
cago rates which may be charged to
and from intermediate points. Percent
age scales also were established for
the charges to be exacted between the
various freight territories.
