vessel should be settled by experts
to be appointed by the two govern
ments. II this plan was not salts

UNITED STATES
STERLING FALL.

Foreign exchange depreciation is
one of the most serious problems
growing out of the European war
which today confronts the United
States Sterling has fallen to close 10
$4.70, or 16 cents under the par Of
exchange, which means that England
is finding it difficult t. finance the
purchase of supplies for herself and
her allies in the American market.
During the week Great Britain sent
to j. P. Morgan & Co., the fiscal
agents of the British government,
$30,000,000 in gold and $30,000,000
wor of British-owned American Sc
curities, but the shipment, which was
made payment on war orders had lit
tie effort on the exchange situation,
sterling going later in the week to
the lowest point ever recorded in New
York. Now there is talk of the es-
tablishment of 100000 British
credit in New York to be secured by
British-owned American securities,
as was done in the case Of the recent
French loan.
American bankers favor the sug-
gestion, for they contend that Eng
land cannot make gold payments suf-
ficient to maintain the exchange
rates, and add, furthermore, that this
country does not need the gold. The
establishment of the credit, they say,
would relieve the necessity for drafts
on London and soon cause sterling to
rise.
The most recent decline, which was
registered Friday, was sad to be due
to the appearance of American man
ufacturers in Wall Street, with due
billie for $5O,O00,000 covering COM
pleted war contracts.

THE WAR BUSINESS
GROW DAY BY DAY

The "war business" today the pr1n-
cipal immediate factor in the prom
ton of American property, continues
to grow day by day. So great has
this business become that in certain
lines Of materials in pressing need by
the European armies the American
plants are unable to take further
contracts.
2 From New York a few days ago re-
ports were circulated to the effect
that the Russian government was
seeking to place contracts for 2,O0O,-
100000 rifles cartridges, the value of
which would be approximately $780,
100000, but could not get the New
England manufacturers to accept the
order, owing to the fact that the New
England manufacturers of ammuni-
ton are already oversold, and the
brass founders have plant capacity
engaged for months ahead.
Great Britain is credited with the
payment for $4,000 tons of fabricated
steel for extensions for New England
plants engaged in making munitions
for her armies, and it is suggested
that Russia may find it necessary to
aid plants in their extension work to
obtain the materials which she is
now seeking.
1nH
rumors that the Dupont Powder
Company had obtained an order for
100000 pounds of powder from the
allies, the largest order in the COM
pany's history That company has
already begun the construction of the
fourth addition to its plant at Car
neys Point. The addition will be
larger than any of the three plants
now in operation and will bring the
Carneys Point production up to L.
100000 pounds of powder per day.
When the war began the company
only had one plant at Carneys Point.
The Hall Switch and Signal Com
pany at GarWood, N. j., has accept
ed an order for s1,0OO,00O worth of
shrapnel for the allies; the Poole En-
cheering Company, of Baltimore, has
booked an order for $2,500,000 worth
of guns, bringing its total of war or
ders to s6,5OO,0O0, and the Bethlehem
Steel Company has purchased the
