FRICTION CAUSED
DELCASSE TO QUIT

Paris, Oct. ID Theophile Delcasse,
the late foreign minister. in his letter
of resignation did not invoke poor
health as the reason for leaving the
cabinet. but rather dissensions be-
tween himself and other ministers in
regard to French foreign policy. the
Radical says.
This letter. which Premier Viviani
refused to read 10 the chamber of
deputies. recalls certain facts, discus
sion of which the censor forbids.
The resignation Of NJ. Delcasse has
produced a profound effect upon the
French public, although it has been
known for some time there was fric-
ton between him and the rest Of his
cabinet.
The press generally abstains from
comment. but what little is said is hos
tile to the retiring minister.
Writers blame him for the failure OF
the Balkan policy and charge that he
is trying to shift the burden CT respon-
sibility upon his former colleagues in
stead of trying to find a remedy for
mistakes. His illness is regarded as
of diplomatic character

London, Oct 15.-Increasing uneasi-
ness Is felt i'm London at the absence
of definite news concerning the con
certed allied action in the Balkans.
This feeling is intensified by news of
the dispute in the French chamber Of
deputies in regard to the Balkan dan
ger and by uncertainty concerning the
British program.
Opinion here is divided to some eX-
tent as to the advisability of taking
part in the Balkan conflict. The gen
eral opinion is that Great Britain IS
morally bound to assist Servia, If this
can be done without a dangerous at
tenuation of the main front. where IT
is felt the war finally will be decided,
Notwithstanding the Balkan diversion
Having failed in their attack on the
British positions on the Western from
the Germans have turned on the
French and made a gain east of Sou
chez. The advantage they obtained
however, is not of sufficient impor
tance to affect the general situation
OF the French. Their assault in the
vicinity of Tahure, in pursuance OF the
movemen begun three days ago, like
wise has been materially unprodue
tive thus far.

On the Eastern front the Russians
are now in full possession of the ini-
tiative and the momentum which car
ried them across the Stripa river in
Eastern Galicia has not yet dimin.
ished. 1t is reported unofficially from
Petrograd that it is the Germans who
now lack ammunition, thus reversing
conditions of two months ago.
Although the Germans are continu-
ing their attacks on the Dvinsk lines
the fury of the onslaught has dimin-
ished and they appear to have made
no net gains recently. In fact, Petro-
grad press dispatches assert the Ger
man troops are three miles further
from the city than a week ago.
The Germans and Austrians con.
tinue to report steady progress on
Servian territory. although admitting
their headway is being impeded some
what. Since the fall of Belgrade no
encounter of great strategic impor
tance has occurred in this new wal
theater. Servia is making a desper
ate attempt to stem the large German
and Austrian forces, which are being
augmented continually. Servian ohi
GERS profess confidence that it viii
be possible to make successful re
sistance, even with inferior numbers
on account of the difficulties which
the mountainous country presents tt
the invaders.

SHREVEPORT" RATE HELD UP.
Com m-rce Board Finds the New
scale Discriminates.

WASHINGTON. Sept. l3-The Inter
state Commerce Commission found II
necessary TO retrace its steps to-day in
the matter OF a supplemental order en-
tered last Jun in the so-called Shreve-
port rate case.
The commission then ordered certain
carriers TO establish rates from Dallas
and other points In eastern Texas
toward Shreveport not In excess Of a
certain scale OF class rates set forth In
the order.
The commission now I'M hat the
application OF the prescribed scale In
eastern Texas upon both interstate and
intrastate traffic would have resulted In
determinations as against traffic NOV
ing between the eastern section Of the
State and other points in Texas.
The effect OF the order threatened 10
be so disastrous to Dallas as a jobbing
centre tina the Chamber OF Commerce
served notice on the commission that
unless il opened the case for rehesring
a resort would he had to the courts for
Injunction. The commission has post
poned indefinitely the application Of the
order of last June and will hear from
the professionals.

THE STEEL MARKET.
Mills Refusing New ORDER Calling
for Thousands of Tons of Metal.

The outstanding feature In the steel
market yesterday was the information
received that steel mills were declining
many thousands Of tons OF new business
owing TO the already well booked UP
condition. Many new inquiries for steel
bars yesterday brought forth the state
ment hi the demand for this product
for munitions had reached unpreceden-
ted proportions. Foreign inquiries are ex-
ceedingly heavy. The French Govern
ment has asked BIDS on 90. 900 tons OF
steel bars and blooms TO be delivered
this year and 10000 tons to be de-
l!vered in 1916, Canada IL In the mar
ket for $4,000 toni OF steel. while other
orders for bars and blooms pending
would bring the total amount up "a
500. 600. 900 pounds.
one OF the mos; important factors
In the rush now going on In he steel
Industry is the demand for ~shrapnel
forgtngs. Indications are that before
mex mldyear his country will be ship
ping al least 10000 finished AMI u n
finished shells 70 Europe daily. This
means an enormous consumption OF
steel. The establishment OF a big wal
credit here by.the Allies means. accord.
ing TO steel manufacturers, even greater
orders for their product. as well as for
other manufactures.
From Youngstown. Ohio. came al.
vices la August Just en3ed exceeded
all previous corresponding months in
the matter OF steel shipments. The
greatest gain was made by the Republic
Iron and Steel Company. with the
Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company
a close second. The Carnegie S,ee'
Company. at It's various plants, made
and shipped more steel than ever be
fore. II is estimated that the stee'
mills OF the Youngstown district havs
not more than 10000 tons OF steel let'
for open market during the remalndei
OF the year.
From all indications. the output of pig
iron at the steel works OF the country
during August was at least ) per cent
greater than the previous high leve
which was established in April. 1913
September will probably exceed the Au'
gust average.
