Of increasing earning capacity were
to be measured, the task would be
q difiicult one. It's pupils come
from near and far, and some finish
in six months or less, according to

student had been a student in the
institute less than six months, and
had learned the Gregg system OF

ROBBERY
LARGEST IN

By UNITED PRESS.

PARKERSBURG,W w. Va, Oct. 9.
Posses from Parkersburg who
we're searching for. the Baltimore q
Ohio train bandits, who secured. Il
is reported, q million dollars in cur
rency, returned to Parkersburg to-
day without having located any Of
the bandits.
A dispatch from the postoffice de-
partment at Washington to local
postal authorities today stated the
bandits secured large amount Of
faderal- raserxe bank -notes a. well
as much unsigned currency.
Authorities today declared II was
not likely they will take advantage
OF Gov. Hatfield's offer to send the
militia to search for the bandits.
Hundreds OF detectives and gov.
eminent agents were working
throughout the state today. on the
theory that the .robber swere. either
employees N the railrosd or had
been In close touch with the post

was as large as reported, the rob-

SUGAR FACTORIES

W. II. Edgar & Sons weekly re-
view OF the sugar market has this
to say of the Michigan situation:

In operation at the present time
only two factories; one in Toledo,
o., and the other in Blissfield, Mich.
whereas we had hoped that all fac.
tories would be operating at this
time. There is an active call for
new crop sugars AM the demand
teing so much N excess Of produc-
ton. II means that shipping delays
will be inevitable until the campaign
gets well under way. We look for
some relief the forepart Of next
week, when we expect to have sever
al more factories In operation. For
the present at least we can accept
orders only for shipment as soon as
possible. but subject to delay. Mich

RECOGNIZES u. S. HAS
CARRANzA AUTO TRADE
British Shops Engaged
in Making NUM-
tons

That America will soon own bod
lily the entire automobile trade of
Great Britain and such parts of con.
tinental Europe as are open to COM
merce, Is the confident declaration
Of Ernest A. De Lorenzi. of the Max
well Motor Co., OF London. Eng. who
has been for several days In confer
enee with American officials of the
parent company.
Mr.. De Lorenzi believes that the
Maxwell company should expand
the scope Of its export campaign.
even to greater extent than the
normal rate q increase provided for
In the allotment of cars In the sea-
sons schedule.
European factories are produc-
Ing virtually no passenger-carrying
cars at all for private consumption. I"
says Mr.. De Lorenzi. Most of them
are working solely on government
contracts, building cars adapted for
war purposes with various types OF
body. Some of them are changing
their entire plants over to the pro-
duction of aereplanes. Touring cars
of British make are produced only
in such a limited way as to create
no impression whatever on the mar
ket.
British makers are still further
handicapped by the fact that, unless
they are working on government
contracts. they have only the lame.
the halt and the blind among the
nations workmen. The pick of the
British mechanics are all either at
the front or. at work on government
enterprises.
ITO still further Increase the
handicaps OF the British makers.
the price OF skilled labor has In
creased nearly 100 per cent,-a con-
dition which should bar the door to
the production Of any car at q pro-
fit."
Like most native Britons present
in America. Mr.. De I.orenxi makes
light Of the submarine menace.
I'VE are clearing the ocean Of the
U-boats by various means" declares
Mr.. De Lorenzi. I'VE net bunch
OF them, but our most effective
method has been to disguise patrol
boats as trawlers and to send them
out as part OF the trawler fleet. The
submarines usually come to the top
and attack the trawler fleet with
shell fire. All Of sudden a four
inch gun answers them and the sub
marine is through as commerce
pest"

PORTRAIT OF
KAISER WINS.
PRIZE IN CANADA

First prize for oil paintings in the
Ingersoll. Ont, fair was awarded
for a portrait of Kaiser Wilhelm. A
committee composed Of society men
and women who put art above
patriotism decided that the kaiser's
portrait was a better picture than
the portrait OF a Canadian COW or
the picture OF a. Canadian pond. An
officer of the Seventh infantry bat
talon became so hot that he up
braided the committee severely for
what he called its breach of patriot
ism. and ended his TRADE by turning
the picture to the wall.

Such Action Is Likely
Outcome of Mexico
Conference

WASHINGTON, Oct. s.-Recogni.
tion--with q string to it--of Gen.
Carranxa's government in Mexico
seemed probable when the Pan
American peace conferees met for
their fourth conference today. The
tentative program was:
Accommodation that Carranxa
be recognized as provisional presi-
dent.
Declaration that he apparently"
has necessary and sufficient mill
tary and moral capacity"
Suggestion that formal recogni-
ton be postponed a few weeks until
Carranza's plans are perfected and
Villas action indicated.
Simultaneous formal recognition
by the United States and Latin
American countries. as basis for &C
ton today, the representatives Of
the Uruguay and Guatemala had
before them:
Assurances from Carranza that he
controls the majority of Mexican
territory; will call a presidential
election. safeguard foreign lives and
property. and guarantee payment OF
foreign claims.
A formal protest from Villa
against Carranza's recognition. de-
claring Carranza controls little OF
Mexico, not even the southern re-
publics. and that neither he nor
Carranza Is now sufficiently estab-
lished to be recognised.

: The new city hospital Is equipped
with every known device and con-
venience for the care and comfort
OF those unfortunates that are
picked up daily on the streets and
byways Of the city. No expense has
been spared In making the appoint
ments Of the hospital complete.
Medical science and invention have
done much to alleviate the suffer
ings Of the sick and manned, and
the new detention hospital, with It's
modern equipment, will be a mer-
ciful agency In growing Detroit.
In planning the hospital. the main
purpose OF It's erection--a clearing
house for emergency cases and n
psychopathic ward for the care Of
the mentally disturbed--has never
been lost sight of by the poor COM
mission. and special facilities have
been provided for the adequate care
OF this class Of patients. In the
emergency department, first I aid
and care will be given. without
charge, to any and ait cases Of In.
jury or acciden. occurring OH the
public thoroughfares, as welt as
cases of general public nature.
An important feature in the new In.
stitution will be the establishment
of bureau OF Identification, which
viii furnish prompt and accurate in
formation relative to the disposal
and location OF persons meeting
with injuries.
IN the psycopathic department
SPECIAL care viii be provided for the
humane and scientific treatment Of
mentally disturbed. restrained and
alcoholic patients, Its wards being
provided with all the necessary
modern equipment for the proper
diagnosis and treatment Of such
cnses.
Other wards of the hospital will
be devoted to the care Of such med.
ical and surgical cases. where patti
tnts are unable to pay for hos
pital care elsewhere. as the capac-
ity Of the institution will permit.
For years the poor commission
has struggled with the problem Of
securing proper care for mentally
disturbed esseA Years ago they
were sent to the, old Emergency
hospital. Later the Red Cross hos
pital tried to handle this class of
patients and was found to be made
quate. st. Mary's hospital was
next prevailed upon to accept this
class of patients. st. Mary's, faf
from being equipped to handle many
of this class Of patients, did the
best II could until year ago, when
It's board notified the commission
that the hospital would have to
give up the care Of insane patients.
