Aluminium The Most Abundant
Metal.

Aluminium is the most abund-
ant of all the metals. In the
form of its oxide, alumina, it
constitutes about Is per cent of
the earth's crust, according to
the United States Geological Sur
vey. Yet until recent years it
was a curiosity; there were only
a few hundred or'few thousand
pounds in existence, and it's value
was $14 or SIS a pound. Within
a generation it has become very
useful, now selling at about 20
cents a pound. The entry of
aluminium into the field of useful
metals came with the discovery
that it could be extracted from
the mineral bauxite, a claylike
substance. This mineral itself is
by no means plentiful, but known
deposits are sufficient to make
aluminium an important competi-
tor of certain metals, such as cop
per and tin, in a good many lines
of work.
Already aluminium has dis
placed steel in certain classes of
construction where strength is
required in combination with ex-
treme lightness, such as in the
manufacture Of flying machines.
An alloy known as duralumin,
containing about So per cent OF
aluminium, is claimed to have

qualities as good as those of good
Bessemer steel, although it is
only one-third as heavy. This
alloy possesses great hardness
when annealed, and its melting
point is above 1000 degrees F.
The great future of aluminium
lies in the perfection Of a process
whereby it can be commercially
extracted from the unlimited de-
posits of alumina = rich clays and
rocks, which exist in all parts of
the world. The day which shall
yield really cheap alumina-ricb
clays and rocks, which exist in
all parts of the world. The day
which shall yield really cheap
aluminium holds out boundless
possibilities. The chemist or
Investigator who can devise the
needed process of extraction will
not be forgotten by succeeding
generations.

GOVERNMENT WILL
NOT OPPOSE LOAN

Washington, Sept. 15.-From high
official quarters it was learned that
the United States government Meth.
er will approve nor disapprove the
loan which is being negotiated by
representatives of England and France
in this country. The position taken
Is that the matter has not been drawn
to the attention of the government by
the bankers and that, therefore, they
are free to act of their own accord,
inasmuch as there is no legal obstacle
IN the way of the transaction.

ENGLAND MAY TAX
SALARIES over $40

London, Sept. 15.-Parliament met
with possibilities Of serious verbal
explosions before adjournment.
Conscription, taxation and muni-
tions threatened sharp clashes and
possibly frank criticism of govern
ment measures.
The cabinet is understood to stand
IL to. 9 against compulsory service.
with Lord Kitchener noncommittal.
Because of the violent opposition Of
British 1abor; the conscription issue
will not be forced unless opponents of
conscription raise the question at this
session of parliament.
There is considerable apprehension
over the new taxation program mapped
out by Chancellor of the Exchequer
McKenna to meet a daily war expendi-
ture of $20,0O0,000. One of its features
contemplates heavy increases in the
income tax, with the limit lowered to
include all salaries of more than $40
weekly.
To meet the expected opposition of
labor members it is understood that
the government proposes to levy at
the same time heavy tax on war
profits of the big employers. Other
taxes will be levied on imports, es-
pecially of Injuries.

BRITISH CASUALTIES
AVERAGE 1900 DAILY

London. Sept. 15.-Oficial an
nouncement was made in the house
of commons that the total British war
casualties up to Aug. 21 was ,9S3
officers and men killed, wounded or
missing.
Losses of the British army during
the summer were somewhat smaller
than in April and May. This is prob
ably accounted for by the comparative
inaction along the Franco-Belgian
front. 1t may be assumed that the
heaviest proportion Of losses was at
the Dardanelles.
The last previous statement of the
total Of British casualties was made
June .. 1t gave a total Of 258.069 up
to May 81. The losses from that time
to Aug. 2 have been 1894, a daily
average of about 1900. In the two
months before the end of May, the
period covered in the preceding an
nouncement, the losses averaged
roughly about 1000 day.

GERMAN ATTACK

London, Sept. ia dispatch to
the Times from Sofia says:
1.-THE relations Of Roumania with
the central powers have reached a
critical stage.
"rhe German government in re-
cent note demanded permission for
the passage Of Austro-German troops
through Roumanian territory and the
fulfllment by Roumania of an under
taking to supply benzine and other
supplies to q value Of $4O,OOO,O0O.
More. than 2 600 German MaGaRa laden
with war materials are waiting on the
Roumanian frontier"
Athens, Sept. 15.-The situation on
the Roumanian frontier is not consid-
cred Immediately menacing by per-
sons in official circles here, especially
in view of the fact that Roumania is
not yet fully prepared for eventuali-
ties.
The tensity of the situation has
prompted steps. however, for closer
understanding between Greece, Rou-
mania and Servia with view to
concerted action in the event of an
attack.

SYSTEM IS CHANGED
London Prepared to Meet Next Raid
Of zeppeiino.

London, Sept. 15.-London will be
ready when the Zeppelins come
again.
Full details have not been made
public, but it was learned that the
entire system Of defending the CAPT.
tai from sky attacks will be radically
changed as the result Of an important
conference.
Several aviation experts, 1t is
known, urged the government to
adopt the same system by which
Paris has been made immune from
dirigible bombardments. They ad-
vocated nightly air patrol along the
east coast. They pointed out that 4
sky battle above London might result
in frightful casualties should one of
the huge Zeppelin dreadnoughts be
brought tumbling down into crowd
ed street, spouting fire.
The last raid shows that despite
warnings from newspapers people in
sisted on seeing the air spectacle, re-
gardless of danger.

GERMANY MUST
D|SAv0W ACT
United States Will Then Ar
bitrate Arabic Case.
LANSING SUBMITS FACTS

Secretary Of State Exhibits Evidence
Regarding Sinking Of Vessel to
Count Won eernstorff for Transmis-
sion to Berlin.
Washington, Sept. 15-The Amer
lean government is not yet willing to
discuss with Germany the question
OF arbitration in connection with the
sinking OF the Arabic. 1t was stated
by high government official that
the question of arbitration is not in
issue"
1t was explained authoritatively
that what the American government
first wishes is disavowal of the at
tack on the Arabic. Afterward it was
indicated the American government
may be willing to arbitrate the ques-
tion of indemnity.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, has communicated the
view of the American government to
Berlin and it is expected he will re-
ceive a reply within the next week or
ten days. The United States is dis
posed to give him full opportunity to
impress on the Berlin government the
views of President Wilson, as dis
closed to him by Secretary Lansing.
While officials realize that the sit
uation is grave they are hopeful that
when Berlin learns Of the facts in
possession of the state department
the act will be disavowed. The de-
partment has given Count Won Bern
storn full opportunity to communicate
with his government and Secretary
Lansing has promised him to afford
every facility for representing the
American view.
1t was learned that the ambassa
dor had the opportunity at the state
department to carefully examine a
ni1fss of evidence gathered by the
United States giving in technical de-
tail the position of the Arabic, the
British steamer Dunsley and the Ger
man submarine up to and including
the time the torpedoes were fred
which destroyed both vessels.
The proof offered is understood to
be chiefly that the German submarine
was at right angles to the Arabic
when firing the torpedo and that the
liner could not see the submarine be-
cause, up to the moment Of firing, 1t
was concealed behind the Dunsley.
These facts have been transmitted
through diplomatic channels to the
German foreign Office and officials
are waiting to learn what effect a
study Of this evidence in Berlin will
have on the point of view of the Ger
man government.

his right arm blown of by shrapnel,

blood and died an hour later. Many
of our men were buried alive in the

have time to look after the wounded
