STOCK EXCHANGE
 REMOVES RESTRICTIONS
ACTION SHOWS FINANCIAL CON OPTIONS OF THIS COUNTRY
 ARE PRACTICALLY NORMAL

New York March 3I.-That the financial markets of the United States no longer fear European ,.qu- dation of American securities was made evident today when the gov erning committee of the New York Stock Exchange recommended the abolition of minimum prices which were established as a safeguard on December l5 last.
 The reasons of the committee fo- arriving at this conclusion were.
 First, that in most cases ruling prices are far above the minimum levels, therefore making further ar bitrary prices useless; second, that financial affairs throughout the country and the foreign trade sita- ton have so improved as to remove the danger existing at the time ot the reopening of the exchange
 As a result of this action, which restores trading on the Stock EX- change to an absolutely normal basis, the committee of three which has supervised and regulated the affairs of the exchange since its rc. opening on December 12, has been discharged and the governing com mittee is again in control
 The decision of the exchange to remove the ban on minimum prices was reached after the most active trading day since the final week of last July Transactions in stocks to- day embraced lq9 different issues with a total of 745.000 snares. Bond dealings reached the aggregate of $4,328,000 par value
 These figures compare more than fayorably with normal days of re- cent years and indicate that specu. ative and investment interests re. gard the domestic situation with eQuanimlty

Washington, March 31. - Expert divers from the New York navy yard were ordered to Honolulu tonight to aid in raising the sunken submarine F-l They will leave at once for San Francisco to board a steamer for Hawaii
 A request for the navy's best divers with the most modern and complete equipment was cabled to Secretary Daniels tonight by Rear Admiral Moore, who has personally taken charge of the operations The admiral indicated that he was vir- tually helpless with the equipment available at Honolulu and that with out additional assistance it might be impossible ever to raise the F.4
 Because of the extreme danger Of under-sea work, naval officers at Honolulu are said to have feared fur ther loss of life would follow if they rsked the further employment of such equipment as they had in at- tempting to bring the boat up from her resting place, 270 feet below the surface of the water.
 The impossibnity of immediately raising the submarine had been real ized for several days Admral Moore estimated the task of saiyag- ing the vessel and rescuing the bodies of the 21 officers and men en- tombed in her waterlogged hull would occupy two weeks time.

Twenty Thousand Dollars to Be
 Spent on Raising the F-4.
 Honolulu, March 31--As result of the navy departments authoriza- ton today of $20,00O for the work of raising the submarine F4, believed to be waterlogged on the ocean bed just outside the harbor entrance, of ficials here under the leadership of Lieut. C. E. Smith, submarine flOtilla commander, have made plans for sal wage operations on a big scale
 All efforts to raise by cables an object said by officials to he the lost F4 having failed, the pontoon method will now be used Six hun dred-ton scows will be towed to the spot beneath which in A. fathoms ol water the submarine is believed to be lying
 After the scows have been weight ed with water, chains hooked to the F14 will be attached to them Then the water will be pumped out of the scows and their hulls rising they will lift the hulk below. The labori- ous process will be continued until the submarine Is brought to the sur face.
 Lieutenant Smith said tonight i, probably would be three days before further attempts to raise the F-l would be made. Late today it was stated a light line was hooked on the submarine and will be maintained as a guide to the sunken craft
 German merchant vessels, war bound in Honolulu harbor have vol unteered the loan of all their salvage apparatus

The allied plan as outlined in the

adopted in 1871. when the German troops
were kept in France until the actual
