THIRTEENTH Of MONTH
PROVES FATEFUL DAY
Mrs. K. Helen Dunsworth, Married
April 13, 1910, Today Seeks
Limited Divorce.

The 18th day of the month ap-
Mrs. X. Helen Dunsworth. April 13,
1910, she was married in Baltimore to
Martin J. Dunsworth, and today, Sep
tember 13. 1915, she applied to the
District Supreme Court for limited
divorce. charging that her husband
choked and abused her and threatened
her life. She also asserts that in his
anger against her he has made threats
to take from her the custody of their
four-year-old child.
Justice Mccoy today cited the hus-
band. who has salary of $1,6S5 per
annum as a law clerk to the federal
trades commission, to show cause Fri
day. why he should not properly sup
port his wife. The courts order also
requires the husband to show why he
should not be enjoined from threaten
ing his wife or interfering with her
and the child.
Mrs. Dunsworth, in addition to spe-
cific charges of cruelty, alleges that her
husband pursued course of cruel
treatment by refusing to provide prop
erly for her and the child. With an in
come of more than $40 a month, she
says, he allowed her only SIS monthly

increased to S25 month, she declares
in August, when the husband had been
notified of her intention to invoke the

SELF-MADE MAN IS TOPIC.
Credit Usually Due Mother or Wife
Rev. E. K. Hardin Says.

In his sermon yesterday morning at
Mount Vernon Place Church. the pas
tor, DR.. Edward K. Hardin. spoke on
the sels-made man.
"Frequently we hear the successful
man make the statement that he is
'self-made,' and usually he is quite
proud of his product. But nine times
out of ten. or more frequently he is
not self-made, but his success in ma
terial things is due to the quiet, self
sacrificing help of a devoted mother, or
wife, who is perfectly content to re-
main in the background and pour out
the silent influence and help of her
devotion into the life of son or hus-
band. The world pays tribute to the
genius of Thomas Carlyle, but it for
Sets that his mother walked miles to
and from the university where he was
a student, carrying clean clothes to her
son and bringing his soiled garments
home to wash them with her own
hands, and made other similar sacri-
fees that her son might obtain an edu-
cation. We Methodists revere and hold
in high esteem the work of John and
Charles Wesley, founders of our church
hut those even slightly familiar with
the church history must accord vast
credit to Susanna Wesley, whose in
fiuence upon her sons made possible
the accomplishment of their great
work"
Last night DR.. Hardin delivered the
third of his series of Sunday evening
talks on the character of Joseph.

ARSON SYNDICATE FOUND f.
BY POLICE OF ST. LOUIS.
Profits Of 1ncendiaries for Five
Years Said to Aggregate Mil

ST. LOUIS. September Reinsurance
agents. human torches" and unnamed
prominent business men comprised the
personnel Of an arson syndicate the po-
lice claim to have uncovered here.
The incendiaries. the police say, were
responsible for most Of the big fires which
have baffied fire and police departments
here for five years. and the profits of the
arson syndicate, the police say. ran into
millions Of dollars.
One insurance agent and four torches
were arrested, the latter being trapped
recently as they were about to carry
four barrels of gasoline into the Christen
Bellows Company's plant which they
are said to have made arrangements to
burn. the owners having agreed to the
plan at the direction of the police.

AMERICAN MERCHANTS
AIM TO retain TRADE
Authority Given for Granting Time
Extensions Demanded by
Foreign Buyers.

officials here in touch with current
export conditions today expressed the
view that unless Americans merchants
were willing to extend the time now
given for the payment for goods sold
abroad, the United States might lose
much of the new trade developed by
the European war. Steps to meet such
situation. it was pointed out, had
been taken by the federal reserve board
by modifying regulations governing
the rediscount of bankers acceptances.
Authority now is given for renewing
acceptances under certain rules which,
it is believed, will permit the granting
of time extensions demanded by many
foreign buyers.
The acceptance is a favorite means OF
taking care Of exports and imports in
Europe and South America, and the
board is understood to feel that with
some of the old restrictions removed,
merchants and bankers in the United
States can use this form of paper to
their own great advantage and for the
upbuilding of American commerce.
Faced Loss of Prestige.
The boards attention was called to
the need for authority to give longer
time to foreign purchasers more than
two months ago. Merchants and bank
ers pointed out that unless some such
change were made as the board now
has authorized American prestige In
foreign trade might easily be lost.
With money now plentiful. an extern
sion of time to foreign purchaser on
an acceptance, which is regarded as
one of the best forms of commercial pa
per. is not expected to embarrass the
banks in the slightest.
National banks. June %. according to
reports to the controller of the cur
rency, had total resources of about $11,
$4,000, 900, with loans and discounts of
about s6.659,o00,O00. and time and de-
mand deposits of more than $6,600, ,000,-
900. There was an increase in time de-
posits over June 80, 1914, of about $780,
100000, and of loans and discounts OF
about $229,900,000.
