CLERKS IN N. Y. STREETS"
New York, Oct. I. - Riches are
coming so fast in Wall street that
families are being endowed from
profits in war stocks, and one baby,
whose parents are very much in So
eiety, is wealthy without knowing it,
according to stories flying about
there.
]. Robinson Duff, who less than a
year ago was just about able to buy
so shares of Electric Boat at 13, has
set aside $250,000 for Mrs. Duff and
the youngsters, and yesterday he
rented a new Office at 81 Broadway
to take the place of his desk room.
How much more he has he doesn't
know, but all in all he is worth more
than 100000, according to all &C
counts, and he admits he has that
much and some more.
Considering that it took only $3.50
to buy his start in Electric Boat, ].
Robinson Duff is doing very well, and
so are many others. AS the cigar
stand man remarked looking out in
Broad street: "There are more mil
ionaires than clerks in the street"
Mr.. Duff made his first purchase
when the war was well under way.
He traded in and out of the market
for few weeks and at the first of this
year he was pyramiding his gains and
enjoying life. That worn look he
used to have when he was trying to
turn a few dollars with Ford starters
faded from his face. Electric Boat
kept speeding up, its revolutions in
creasing every day the fortunes of
]. R. Duff, now ]. Robinson Duff.
When it reached 500 he felt that the
going was so good that he might as
well unload ballast: That is why he
set the quarter of million aside for
his wife, thus giving her an income
of ST, 800 year.

ROCKEFELLER INTERESTS TO
HAVE THEIR OWN UNION
Denver, Colo, Oct. I. - John D.
Rockefeller, Jr.,'s conferences with
officials of the Colorado Fuel & Iron
Co. have produced answer to de-
mands of United Mine Workers for
recognition.
This became known today when
Cass Harrington, Rockefeller compa-
ny's counsel, said: Rockefeller will
organize his own union, which is be-
ieved to mean that instead of recog-
nizing union affiliated with American
Federation of Labor, the Rockefeller
interests intended to organize their
own employees and then deal with
them by contract in some form of col
lective bargaining.

AUSTRALIA OFFERS
HOME TO BELG|ANS
TWO THOUSAND TO RECEIVE
FREE TRANSPORT TO NEW
SOUTH WALES

SYDNEY, Australia, April 15.-
Hope that expatriated and distressed
Belgians may yet be induced to set
tie in Australia, Notwithstanding the
adverse attitude of the Belgian gov
eminent, was voiced in statement
made recently at a meeting here of
the Millions club by Percy Hunter,
director of the New South Wales i'm
migration bureau. Mr.. Hunter, whose
headquarters are In London, said
that the proposed transplanting of
Belgians to the commonwealth was
raised Immediately upon its becom-
ing apparent that there would be
large number OF Belgians who in
consequence of tie war would be I'm.
able to earn tneir living. The New
South Wales government offered to
take 1900 of them. transport them
passage free TO this state, maintain
them here and return them passage
free to their homes in Belgium after
the war il they desired; and it also
offered to bring here a considerable
number of young Belgian women and
widows with children who might find
situations as domestic servants.
Though these schemes had failed be-
cause the Belgian government had
determinedly refused to sanction
them, he believed that some arrange
ment TO the end desired might event
ualy be made.

DEALS ARE ON FOR OTHERS

Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. 25.-The
formation of new steel corporation
along gigantic lines was forecast
here yesterday when the Midvale
Steel company, one of the largest in
dependent steel concerns in the
country, was sold to interests whose
identity was not disclosed.
These same interests are said to
be negotiating for the purchase of
the Cambria Steel company, still
larger independent steel concern
with a plant at Johnstown, Pa.
These two deals are said to be
merely the forerunner for other
deals which will change the owner
ship of other large steel plants in
the east.
The price paid for the Midvale
was 100000. A far larger sum
is demanded for the Cambria, it is
said.
The Midvale plant, which is locat-
ed in this city, employs about s.
500 men and is one of the three steel
concerns in the United States sup
plying steel armor plate for the
United States navy.
1t, like all the other independent
plants, mentioned as figuring in the
big deal now on, is engaged in filling
large orders for war munitions.

band of perhaps eighty Mexican.
crossed the border early yesterday
raided the Texas town of Progesc
and engaged in a battle with a de.
tachment Of American troops. Priv.
ate Henry w. Stubblefeld of Big
Stone Gap, Va, was killed and Capt
A. V. Anderson wounded. At least
two Mexicans were killed.
Soldiers engaged in the fight say
that Mexican troops, numbering per-
haps 800 in all, under shelter of
trenches on the Mexican side, cover
ed the retreat of the attacking party.
Some of these Mexicans wore army
uniforms.
Probably 5000 shots were fired by
the Mexicans and the American
troops were forced to give up their
pursuit of the raiders because of the
heavy fire from the Mexican side of
the border. The fight lasted about
two hours.
In their raid upon Progreso the
Mexicans looted several stores and
the postoffice, then burned these
buildings.
Last night heavier detachments
of American troops were stationed
about the scene of the fight.

rived here Sept. 7, being sent to the
foreign branch office.
Postal authorities said the pack
age was addressed to Sig. Virginia
Roascio, P. c., Ceva, Italy, and the
name of the sender was given as
Luigi Ghirolfi of Napa Junction.
The package containing the dyn-
amite received much handling dur
ing the trip across the continent,
being transferred to and from var
ious mail bags. On receipt at the
Grand Central terminal it was shot
down a long chute and must have
struck the bottom with considerable
force. The failure to explode is ex-
planned by the heavy wrappings of
newspapers.
There was an outer cover Of heavy
manila paper. Next to this was a
heavy layer of newspapers, inside of
which was large cigar box. An
Italian almanac, bearing portrait
of President Wilson was stuffed in
one end Of the box, while two cloth
bags each held four sticks Of dyna-

The package was held for insuffic-
