CANADIAN DOES NOT
FEAR SLUMP IN WHEAT

Duluth. Mimi. Dec. 23.-Charlcs Ii,
Thornton of Winnipeg was visitor
on the Duluth board Of trade today.
Commenting on the market situation
and general conditions, he said
81 can see no reason for feeling un'
friendly to the wheat prices. When
one considers taat the Canadian
farmers marketed nearly 2JO,0OO,jv
bushels OF wheat in about 120 days
of which about lS5;0O0OO0 came 70
the terminals, and brought enormous
premiums over tire following day $
prices, or the following months, or
the following weeks, prices, it surely
emphasizes tie fact that somebody
wanted wheat, and there should be no
particular difference in marketing the
balance of the crop. It would appeal,
now as though the total western
Canadian crop would exceed all pre-
viOls expectations. Ser.

CHILD
FOR ESTATE A

Sioux City, Sept. 10. Upon a fine
legal point must depend the chance OF
Charles E. Hicks, claiming to be the
illegitimate child of George E. Lloyd,
deceased of Los Angeles, CAL, receiv'
ing a share in Lloyd's estate.
The case is being threshed out In the
probate court at Onawa, where Lloyd
held large land holdings. Twelve chill.
dren of Lloyd, provided for in the will,
have decided not to sell the land, know.
ing of the claim filed by Hicks in the
California courts.
Hicks has been awarded his full
share in California but the Iowa law
differs in that illegitimate children
may be disinherited at the will of the
testator, whereas In California any
child is entitled to a share in the
estate of the parent.

MASONS
NEW HOME SITE

Davenport, Sept. 13.-One Of the
historic sites Of Davenport, the old
Trinity cathedral grounds with the
church building and rectory, aban-
doned by the Episcopal church sew
eral years ago and of late used by a
chiropractic college. was purchased
by the combined Masonic lodges of
Davenport as the site for a future
Masonic temple.
The site Is on the southwest corner
of Seventh and Brady streets, 1924
$50 feet. The purchase price was
$4,000.
The Masons now own free Of any
fncumbrance one of the most valu-
able sites in the city, the Masonic
temple on the corner Of Third and
Main streets. This property is esti-
mated to be considerably over $780,
900 in value. AS it is a good revenue
producer the Masons will probably
hold it for a few years before build
ing on the new site.

EXPENSES Of IOWA
CITIES INCREASE
GALLARNO FIGURES s51 OF THE
BOOSTER BUDGETS $2,255,o0o
THIS YEAR.

Des Moines, Sept. Is. Municipal ex
penGitures in S51 cities and towns OF
Iowa increased $2,255, 900 during the
fiscal year which ended April l, 1915,
compared with the previous records,
according to the report which is BEING
prepared by George Gallarno, chief
clerk of the municipal accounting de
partment of the state. In the same
period receipts increased $1,742,000.
Taxpayers paid $17.0OO,O0o for the
support of municipal government in
851 cities during the last fiscal year.
This was slightly less than the expen'
ditures, which totaled $17,085,000.
For the fiscal year previous the re
,ceipts were $15, 267, 90 and the expen
ditures $14,S30,000.
The complete report of the munich
palities will be issued next Monday
It is expected to show that the commits.
sion governed cities of the state have
grown faster in population and made
more improvements than other cities.
The main features of the report will
be the fact that municipal expenses
have increased a little more than Ii
per cent in the last fiscal year. Heavy
Investments In improvements account
for much Of this increase, it Is said.
During the last twelve months several
hundred Of the smaller cities of the
state have put in paving. Some Of
the cities had never had. improved
streets. One Of the small places put in
sixty-fve blocks of paving.
The figures on the operation of city
government in the cities with the city
manager plan are now being compiled.
It Is thought that the statement will
not show much difference over the pre-.
v1ous fiscal year.

Talking New VA Tax.
London, Sept. 13. = When parlia-
ment reassembles tomorrow its prin.
! cipal concern will be schemes of new
taxation to help in providing for the ex-
penses of the war.
An increase and an extension Of the
income tax is expected in most quar-.
Fters. An attempt to restrict the volume
of imports is urged by many public
men. The most likely measures in this
direction are large additions to the
duties on tea, tobacco, wine, sugar and
petrol, and possibly new duties on lux
ur1es of various character.
Other taxes which have been sug-
gested are on railway tickets, theaters
and motion pictures, automobiles and
carriages, and employers of domestic
servants. An increase in charges for
letters, kilograms and telephones, all
of which are under government con-
troll, is a further possibility.
But the greater part of the half bill
lion dollars or 80 which the govern
ment hopes to add to its annual income
will come, according to the well in
formed, from the income tax. Plans
probably will be made for assessing
the wages of as many workmen and
small business men as earn more than
the nat minimum deemed necessary to
support existence.
It is estimated that the total income
of the inhabitants Of the British isles
is $12,O 900, 900, 900 a year. Of this, less
than S. 600, 100000 Is now assessed for
taxation. The new legislation Is expect
ed to reach at least three and a half
billion dollars more.

arbitration. The conference began at
noon.
1t was generally believed that be.
fore the United States will enter into
formal negotiations or the. Arabic case
in particular, or any phase of the gen.
eral subject which might include the
sinking of the Lusitania, it will be nee.
essary first to confirm Germany's as.
surances of the cessation of attack by
submarines on liners.
The declaration that the United
States would not discuss the Lusitania
case until it had been established
whether the sinking of the Arabic was
a justified act, increases the impor.
lance of the decision on the Arabic
note.
Ambassador B%ernstorf's conference
with Secretary Lansing lasted just
half an hour. AS he left the state de-
partment he told inq%uirers:
Il really cannot say anything about
what I said to the secretary or about
what he said to me. That rests with
Secretary lansing; I really cannot
talk, you know"
The ambassador made 1t clear, how
ever, that the situation had not come
to an impasse. From his manner some
Of his questioners inferred that his
conference with the secretary fore
casts a favorable outcome and that
probably arbitration might be agreed
on.
Secretary Lansing, like the ambas.
sador, refused to discuss his confer.
.ence in any way.
When Count Won Bernstorff returned
to the embassy he sent a report to his
foreign office which was believed to
outline the evidence Secretary Ian
sing has to show the Arabic vas tor
pedoed with out warning and to contro.
vert the claim that she was about to
ram the submarine. It was understood
that the conference developed no sug.
gestion from either side that the prin-
ciples Of submarine warfare be includ-
ed in a proposal for arbitration.
The inference which officials allowed
to go out was that the negotiations
were, SO far, proceeding amicably and
were awaiting further developments
between Washington and Berlin.
