Paris Oct. 3i.--It is learned from
an unimpeachable source that Ameri-
can sales In steel products, especially
in steel bars to France and England
have been SO seriously menaced by
the excessive prices demanded that
four-tifths OF the market probably
has been lost. The goose laying the
golden egg has been seriously wound

price situation.
Al the recent conference between
Albert Thomas. the French minister

Britain. which was attended by the
chief French and English steel man

Have Failed or Refused to Pay
"A number OF persons who were
caught in Europe at the time OF the
outbreak of the war in the summer Of
1914 and to whom funds were adj

Representatives of the United

sieged by frantic, Americans, demand
ing that they be sent home, and at
once. Others clamored for money TO
provide themselves with food. The
sacred duties Of the American govern
ment to its citizens were appealed to.
In this emergency Congress acted.
Two million seven hundred and fifty
thousand dollars was appropriated to
relieve the necessities OF American
citizens abroad, with the provision
that persons to whom relief was fur

after war was declared and sent to
London. Paris. Berlin. Rome and
other large cities OF Europe to be
used in assisting our citizens.
"A considerable number OF these
obligations have been paid. and many
remain unpaid. Although there 10 no
