 come Of Austrian Situation

New York. Dec. 31, Wall Street, 10:30 a. m.-The last day of the year on the Stock Exchange opened with wide and general advances, the out come of the Austrian situation being signalized by a broad buying move ment. United States Steel's initial offering consisted of 12,000 shares at s9 to S9h, an overnight gain of two points and duplicating it's maximum of the last five years.
 Shares of the so-called war classes were one to three points higher, with especial strength in Studebaker, Bald win Locomotive and Republic Steel. Coppers rose more moderately, like- wise rails, but the oil group added substantially to recent gains.
 C1ose-Oils, Mercantile Marine pre- ferred tobaccos and other high priced issues dominated the later dealings. The closing was strong.

tions for a much larger fleet and ar my than necessary. When peace comes none of belligerents will be in a condition to be anxious for another war for some time, at least. Hence none are likely to have serious de- signs upon the United States, and if they did. a quick strengthening Of our navy on defensive lines and the creation of reasonable and up-to- date army would meet the require ments for defensive purposes. It is absurd to believe, as one estimable authority would have us, that we need as large a navy for our protec- tion as the British empire, which in- cludes nearly, one-quarter of the worlds population, territory and trade. Great Britain has widely scattered empire and her people live upon an island wholly incapable of self-support. The United States is continent. has unlimited resources agricultural and mineral; and no for eign army, even if it landed, could go beyond the coast for more than a few miles. There is no sound req son why we should lose our poise and be swept off our feet into militarism or navallsm, the consequences of which nave proved so ruinous to oth- CTS. Still I believe in amply pre- paredness

 Local Outlook.
 The position of the stock market $ vastly better than year ago. This fact has been largely discounted by the rise which eliminated in October. The decline since then was largely in the industrials most affected by the war, it being recognized that their abnormal profits cannot continue for the reason that the belligerents are now better able to supply their own munitions. Nevertheless, many of the industrials will benefit from the legitimate revival of business induced by a rich harvest and the late pie thora of money. The railroads, how ever, stand to benefit more substan- tially than any other class of invest ments from present conditions. Their earnings, gross and net, are showing most encouraging gains. Operation has usually been reduced to the low est cost, public hostility has been greatly 1essened, and a realization eN- ists of the harm that has been done, so that the outlook for this great 1n- dustry is better than for several years. There is the possibility of a too free return of American stocks and bonds held abroad; but this is hardly likely because the British gov ernment, through it's mobilization scheme, will control British selling and will not intentionally spoil it's own market. Besides. the amount of such investments for actual sale cannot be large, and much of what remains consists of high grade iu- vestm ents held in trusts, etc, and likely to remain abroad. At this writ ing, the chief obstacle to a more ac- tive and stronger market is the pros pect of dearer money and the com ing presidential election, which prom ises to be a warm contest. The war has thrust aside many of the old is- sues. and in place of corporation and money trust-baiting, we already have preparedness, revenue and shipping. A prolonged discussion seems prob able over preparedness, and owing to clever and persistent propaganda. there of the people being stampedcd by ungrounded fears into appropria-

JAIL DELIVERY FOILED
Prisoners at Mitchell Planned To
Blow Up the Jail with
Chemicals.

Mitchell. Feb. 17.-By the mixture
of nitric acid and g%lycerine, prison
ers in the Dawson county Jail hoped
to compound an explosive that would
permit a wholesale Jail delivery. Dis
coyery of the chemicals vas made by
Sheriff +. T.. Owens a few hours be
fore the time planned for the escape
from Jail.
Investigation disclosed that me of
the prisoners whose term would have
expired Sunday, had been given sew
eral privileges and had purchased
the chemicals with which to mix the
nitroglycerine. Although he had
been sentenced for three months in
Jail for forgery, he succeeded in get
ting his chemicals by the use of an
other forged check. He also bought
a bottle of laudanum for one of the
prisoners who was addicted to the
drug.
The ringleader of the attempt is
believed to be T.. III. Bell of st. Jo-
seph, Mo, who attempted to make
his escape by digging through the
Jail wall several weeks ago. He will
finish a term for a minor offense in
March, but is believed to have a Grim
inal record.

NOT WORRIED
SENATOR-ELECT JOHNSON AND
FRIENDS COURT AN
INQUIRY.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 17.-Recent in
timations in Washington dispatches
to the effect that ex-senator Petit
grew of South Dakota was endeavor-
ing to have an investigation made of
the election of e. S. Johnson, demo-
cratic United States senator-elect
from South Dakota, who will take
his seat on March 4, have apparently
attracted little attention in South Da-
kota outside of members of a small
faction of democrats hostile to Mr..
Johnson, and among some republic
ans who have not recovered from the
shock caused by the election OF a
democrat to the United States senate
from the republican state OF South
Dakota.
Friends of the United States SEN
ator-elect are outspoken in their be-
lief that the action of ex-senator Pet
tigrew, in seeking to have the cleo
ton OF Mr.. Johnson investigated on
the ground that undue use of money
made, is due solely to personal
animosity against Senator-elect john
son, growing out of the fight in 1912
for the election of delegates to the
democratic national convention. They
point out that at that time ex-Sen-
ator Pettigrew posed as a democrat
and worked early and late for a dele
CATION from South Dakota which
would favor the nomination OF
Champ Clark as the democratic stan
dard bearer In the national campaign.

actly 500, 000,434.69. This is an in
