BEST OIL CUSTOMER,
 IS LOST TO US
Using Electricity Generally Throughout Fatherland Because of Restrictions Placed on Shipping.

That Germany was the best GUS. toner of the United States for pe- troleum and that this country has lost that customer forever through the war is the statement made by Prof Karl Duesing of Kiel, Germany, in a letter to his brother, pr. Herman Duesing of this city.
 Dr. Duesing has received from his Aorother some of the postage stamps which soldiers at the frontAare using. The word eBelgien'' in German let ters and the amount of the stamp in French letters, is used to cancel it. The stamps are of three and five cen times denomination. In his letter Prof. ,Duesing says in part:
 '@The most imp portant news con- cerns the position of Italy. The French government has transported 100000 men to the Italian French frontier Strong fortifcations were built. Italians, living for years, in France were ordered to leave at once. The French people are high conduct of Italy. France fears that Italy might join her enemy in the near future. Many Italians were ar rested who lived for years in France near the Swiss frontier. The trans portation Of the 2OO,O men was QOnS Dy n1BnI-- III the last days or March But 1t could not be kept se- cretz because the regular railroad traffic between Paris and Switzerland had to be abolished. The 'fRfatin' said in the first days of April:
 ss The situation awaiting Italy is very dark and doubtful and we have to expect most anything
 ssThe German submarines reported unanimously. at their return to home port that not a single British war ship could be found around theA en- tire coast of Great Britain, except a few ,destroyers They must be hiding in their secure ports. This report of Prof Duesing harmonizes with the German wireless of April. 2, which said, that the German. feet went out to offer battle to the Eng fish navy, but could not find it.
 There is no more petroleum in Germany But this does not harm Germany any but the United States. The German government in wise forethougf gf1t has installed electric i1- Illumination all over the country. Ger tensively before the war, but now it is used exclusively in the smallest vil- lage. Germany was the best GUS toner for American petroleum, but through the governments policy, not to allow their own ships to carry their own goods the United States lost her best customer for good and ever.
 The prices on all goods are 10 to 20 per cent. higher. This raise does not affect Germany alone. but all the neutral countries. The req son for this is that 100000 men are on the battIefields instead of working in the factories. The eco nonicaI conditions in Germany are | 1lr70Sf The railroads ear ry go per cent of their normal traffic, the military transports not includ- ed.
