MUST EXTEND CREDIT
TO EARN BUSINESS
Bankers Cannot Expect to Develop
South American Trade Unless
They DO Same as Europe.

PHILADELPHIA. June 1.--Busi-
ness men and bankers in the United
States must not expect to develop
trade with South and Central America
unless they conform to the standards
of those countries make the right
prices and are willing to extend terms
Of credit such as the southern repub-
les have received from Europe In the
past This was the message delivered
tonight in behalf of the delegates to
the recent American financial
conference by Scnor Santiago Perez
Triana of Colombia, at a banquet In
honor Of the delegates by business
Hen and bankers of Philadelphia.
Trade, said Senior Triana, is not
conducted along altruistic lines, but is
matter Of dollars and cents. The
United States, he pointed ont has a
wonderful opportunity today to get
the trade which Europe once had, but
it must make the same effort to sup
ply the needs OF South and Central
America as was made by European
nations.
The visitors from the south listened
today to a suggestion from Mayor
Blankenburg of Philadelphia that
there should be a declaration of inter
dependence by thirteen or more ma
tions of the western hemisphere which
would assure safety on the seas &c
comm cree and which should protect
its ships with an international flag
the symbol of a new nation OF ma
tions."
The mayor spoke in Independence
hall

IN sands Of Confederate veterans at
the opening Of their 25th annual re-
union here today cheered the hope eX-
pressed by their leaders that peace in
America may not be disturbed by war
in Europe. They reiterated their 10y

the United States in any crisis. and
bowed assent to prayers that those
who guide the destinies OF the repuD-
lie might be blessed with wisdom to
deal with pending International af-
fairs.
1t was day Of tribute to their own
departed heroes and one Of fervent
hope that their sons may never have
to experience the baptism Of the fire
OF war. This sentiment, uppermost
in addresses of day, brought the vet

AROUND PRZEMYSL
TEUTONS WINNING


| DNDON June 1.-UO.iS p. mD-
H I'm the face of yesterdays Rus
sian claims that the Austro-G German
grip on Przemysl had been broken
and that the offensive in the great
Galican struggle had passed to the
Russians, came both German and
Austrian official statements tonight
asserting that the Austro- German
troops have been successful to the
north and the southeast OF the fort
rcss, that the forts girding it to the
north have fallen into their hands,
while TO the southeast they have
Wrested Stry from the Russians
In fact the Austro- Germans say that
the campaign is running in their favor
everywhere in the eastern zone from
ldbau in the north TO the southern
most tip Of the Galacian battle line.
British Claims Premature.
| It Is apparent that the Russians.
| since being forced back to the San,
have been rushing up heavy reinforce
| mentS in the hope OF aVerting the
| fall Of Przemysl. But the Austro-
! Germans, undeterred by stupendous
losses, have as yet shown little dis
! position to accept purely defensive
! role. and the British critics seem to
have been a bit premature in saying
that the German thrust had definitely
! failed.
No British official communication
was issued today. The French confine
themselves, generally speaking, TO re-
counting their success at Abain-St
| NaZaire
The German official statement ig-
| nores this and tells Of minor gains
elsewhere. 1t adds that the French
effort TO break through the German
| lines has failed.

THE MONTHLY BANK
CLEARINGS LARGE

Bank clearings for the month Of
May show a splendid increase over
that Of .he previous month, an in
crease OF approximately $3.50, 900 The
total Of May was S5,640,255, while
that for April reached the mark Of
s5.3S4,295.
There was a decrease in clearinEs
from last year, caused by the turning
Of national bank clearings through
the federal reserve hanks. Since the
reserve banks were established only
lsat fall it is impossible to draw a
comparison between conditions of last
year and those of the present.

Note To Be Sent Will Be
Short and Will Demand
Immediate Answer.
MAY BREAK RELATION


7KTASHINGTON, June 1.-PresI-
w dent Wilson determined today
that the United States must ascertain
definitely and very promptly from
Germany whether the imperial gov
ernment intends in the future TO be
guided by the accepted principles OF
international law and the rights OF
neutrals or to follow its own rules Of
maritime warfare.
The president listened to a varied
expression of opinion at meeting OF
his cabinet, taking little part in the
discussion himself Later he began
the preparation of a note to be dis
Matched before the end of this week
embodyng his own ideas ana what
seemed to him the consensus OF his
official family.
Reply Unsatisfactory.
The verdict of a majority of the
cabinet was that the German reply to
the American note following the SINK
inf of the Lusitania was unresponslVe
and unsatisfactory, disregarded the
good will of the United states, doubted
it's facts and disclaimed all blame for
tbe destruction Of the merchantman
with American lives, The questions
of fact raised by Germany were re-
garded as irrelevant at this time. The
trend of opinion was that the United
States must inquire and obtain an
early answer as to whether Germany
intends to recognize the hitherto ac-
cepted principle that neutrals may
travel anywhere on the high seas on
unarmed merchant ships, whether or
not such vessels carry contraband, and
that merchantmen which do not re-
resist capture must be visited and
searched and the passengers and crew
transferred to a place of safety before
the vessel is destroyed.
May Sever Relations.
An unfavorable answer to this in
uuiry would lead, it was predicted, to
severance of diplomatic relations,
on the ground that the United States
could not continue intercourse with
a government which repudiated these
principles. Steps then would be taken
TO inform Americans Of the dangers
to which they were exposed as a re-
suit of this action and such measures
as necessary adopted to safeguard the
lives and interests of citizens of the
United States.

.JITNEYS MUST NOT
HAUL MORE THAN 4
Commissioners Limit Mum
ber Of Passengers and
Ask for Bonds.

Another blow at the Tulsa iitney
was delivered yesterday when the city
commissioners on motion OF Police
Commissioner 7. j. Quinn, instructed
the legal department to prepare an
amendment 20 the jitney ordinance
limiting jitnays to the normal seating
capacity of the car.
This reans, in substance, that the
Ford jitney cannot haul more than
four passengers in addition to the
driver and larger cars in proportion.
Jitney owners here have repeatedly
declared thSt if they were to be linn
tied to the exact seating capacity Of
their cars they would be forced out Of
business. The new amendment will
become effective in a very snort time
and will be Immediately enforced by
the police department. according to
Commissioner Quinn.
May Go to Courts.
It may be that the matter will be
taken into court by the iitney owners.
If the local courts should hold against
the amendment the city will take the
case to the supreme court, according
to City Attorney John r. Ramsey.
Police Commissioner Quinn also
asked that each jitney owner be re-
quired to file heavy indemnity bond
with the city, for protection in the
event Of damage suits resulting from
accidents, but upon the advice of
Mayor wooden this item was passed
over until the seating capacity amend
ment could be tried out.
City Attorney Ramsey also declared
that he was sure the indemnity bond
provision, If it should be included in
the ordinance, could be made to hold
water in court.
The commission adopted the sug-
gestion of the police commissioner as
to the limiting of passengers that jit-
neys may carry at one load by a unan-
imous vote.

MIXED BLESSING.

A gallant Tommy, having received
from England an anonymous gift of
socks, entered them at once, for he
was about to undertake a heavy
march. He was soon prey to the
most excruciating agony, and when,
a mere cripple, he drew off his foot
gear at the end of a terrible day, he
discovered inside the toe of the sock
what had once been a piece of stiff
writing paper, now reduced to pulp,
and on it appeared in bold, feminine
hand the almost illegible benediction,
"God bless the wearer of this pair of
socks Punch.

NEVER ACQUIRED WITH EASE
Talent Requires Cultivation That Can
Only Be Enjoyed by Those Who
Pay the Price.

Persons with no apparent talent
often look on the talented as fortu-
nate folk who, by some favor of the
gods, live easily and charmingly-
drifting down sunlit and flower
bordered stream. They are unaware
of all that it costs in self-sacrifce, in
resistance to temptations from with
in and without, and in hard and per-
sistent labor, to bring a talent to
anything approaching maturity. 1t
is not possible to secure statistics on
dead talents; but if it were it would
be found that some 80 per cent per-
ish. This is because of the lack of
character in those who possess them.
Talent calls for iron purpose; it is
not a self-perfecting thing. An al
most grim obstinacy is required from
the outset if it is to be cultivated
urged on from flower to fruit, from
ripening to harvest Parents, friends,
the conyentions-even reason itself
may be its natural foes. He-or
she-who can save a talent alive, yet
pay all the debts of affection, must
be possessed not only of a clear and
creative mind, but of brave,
Astounding and magnanimous spirit
as well-a spirit austere beneath its
gentleness. Character, and charac-
ter alone, can save a talent to the
end.
