On the Consolidated Elk change it sold down to below Al, a loss of nearly II points within the two days.
 After touching the minimum, the stock rallied slightly but fell back again About 10000 shares changed hands during the first half hour. The situation was somewhat complicated by the refusal of the London stock exchange to meet the new minimum here, London adhering to the pre- yiously established minimum of AS.

Meteor Not Mentioned.

The earlier reports of the engage ment announced that the Lion and the torpedo boat destroyer Meteor had been damaged. Vice Admiral Beatty's report mentions the Lion and the Tiger, and omits any reference to the Meteor.
 The list of casualties shows that Engineer Captain Charles G. Taylor of the battle cruiser Tiger, and five stol<ers and three seamen of that ship were killed. The three men killed on the Meteor were stokers, while most of the wounded on the Lion, Tiger and Meteor were stokers.
 Built in 1908
 The German light cruiser Kolberg, reported sunk, was the first of four vessels of her class which were built during 1908 and 1909. Her sister ships, the Mainz, Kolen and Augs burg, all have previously been re- ported to have met with disaster during the present war.
 The Mainz was sunk by the British fleet in the battle off Helgoland late in August and a boat of the Koeln type was reported to have gone to the bottom in the same fight.
 Early in August a Russian torpedo DOdI was Salu to nave SuHk lhe Augsburg after that cruiser had bombarded the port of Libau. If the reported destruction of the Kolberg should prove correct, all the vessels of her class would seem to have been accounted for by enemy warships. 1850 Tons Displacement. The Kolberg was a vessel of 4,350 tons displacement and carried crew | of 362 officers and men. She was 402 feet long and had speed of about "A knots. The cruiser was armed with twelve Al inch guns, four g. pounders, four machine guns and two torpedo tubes. Her cost was $1,- 907,40
 According to a trustworthy auth or ity the condition of the German battle cruisers Seydlitz and Derf1inger, when the pursuit was abandoned owing 10 the approach of the German mine fields, was desperate in the extreme. The Derflinger was believed to have been torpedoed by a British destroyer l and it was considered questionable whether she would be able to reach the safety of the mine fields. The battering of the German ships was said by this authority to have been rather underrated than exagger- ated. Two of the German destroyers, it was asserted, were so badly dam aged by the British fire that it was impossible that they could long re- main afloat.

ORDINARY INCOME OF
 RUSSIA $l7l,232,500
Excess Of S33,22S,500 Above Last
 Year Despite War.

Petograd, Jan. 27, Via London, Jan. 2S, 9:35 A. M.-The official report made by the ways and means commit tee of the Duma tonight indicated that, despite the war, the government estimates of it's ordinary income from direct taxes during the coming year will exceed that of last year by 66,- 457,O00 rubles (s33, 3,22S, ,5OO). The di- rect taxes will be approximately $171,232, 2,5O0.
 This is the first budget in which the income from alcoholic drinks will be eliminated. From nearly 0,000,00O from this source the government revenue will drop to few million which will accrue from the sale of industrial spirits.
 Anticipates No Difficulty.
 The government anticipates no diff ficulty in raising by indirect taxes sufficient amount to cover the de- ficiency due to lack of revenue from the sale of liquors. Notwithstanding the great percentage of Ia aborers II, the ranks of the army, it is pointed out that the efficiency of those re- maining, owing to enforced sobriety has been increased from fifty to one hundred per cent The natural re-
 
 as oil fields, coal and copper mines wood land and prairie. which hither- to have not been exploited have been given out in free concessions and are about to be developed and from these the taxes, together with the land tax, it is calculated, will aggregate a total of s347, ,0000 900
 Acting Premier kharitonoff in speaking of the budget, said:
 Without resorting to extraordinary measures the income from internal revenues will cover the expenses of the government and pay the interest on the bonded indebtedness"
 No Comment on Expenses.
 Concerning the provision for fu- ture war expenses, beyond the loans already made, there is no comment in the report. Unofficially it is learned that at a meeting in Paris between David Lloyd-George, the British chancellor, AleXandre Ribot, the French minister of finance, and Pierre l.. Bark, the Russian minister of finance, there will be elaborated a plan to create a means of continuing the war, keep the finances of the re- spective countries running smoothly and maintaining the currency of the countries at near par.
