in arranging the contemplated credit
here. AS yet there has been no ap-

which to pay for supplies bought in this
country. The impression exists that un-

The commission, it was said, was pre-
pared to place squarely before the ex-
porters the possible results to the export
trade of the United States should it be
impossible to find a way to establish a
ment of foreign orders in everything but
munitions of war, the commission believes
would follow the failure to float the loan.
Conferences to Continue.
For several days to come, it was said,
the commission expects to continue its
meetings here with financiers of New York
and other cities before beginning its
actual labors. No conferences were held
today. Most of the members went to the
Long Island shore to rest over Sunday.
Yesterday. the day of their arrival,
was strenuous one, beginning with their
meeting with J. P. Morgan, including their
selection of hotel quarters, and a recep-
ton in the afternoon, where 100 or more
leading men of New York's financial life
were presented to them, and ending late
at night with dinner given them by a
party of New York bankers. The COM
missioners were much fatigued by their
unusual exertions, and slept late today.

TO AVOID ATTACKS
British Ships Continue
to Fly American Flag
for Protection

WASHINGTON. July 1.-Searching
investigation is being conducted by
the United States into several cases
in which it has been officially report
ed that British ships flew the Ameri-
can flag, apparently to avoid attacks
by German submarines.
Reports have been received, not
only from Ambassador Garard in Ber
lin. but through American consular
sources in Great Britain with affi
davits and other evidence tending to
show alleged misuse OF the Stars and
Stripes. 5-.ti=

flag that note may soon be sent by

British admiraltys agents have con-
suited with the masters of vessels

Some Prosperity.

The assessed valuation Of Fergus county last
year stood at well over nineteen million dollars, sol
that it is fair to the total for this year will
be around twenty millions at least. Assessor Rid
dicks returns make a good increase certain, but
an estimate as to the extent Of the gain is as
yet unobtainabe. Assuming therefore that the
valuation for | 9l5 will be around twenty millions
we are confronted by the striking fact that value
of the products from the agricultural and allied in
dustries in Fergus this year will make a total of
twenty million dollars. Statsticians estimate the
wheat crop Of the countythis year at twelve million
bushels, while the estimates to other grains, live
stock products, dairyproducts and forage add eight
millions more to this, or total Of twenty million
dollars exclusive of the mineral output of the
ty, which is an important item in itself Thus we
have the situation of county in comparatively
new country where agriculture has been an es
tablished industry for but few years, showing
Ia production for the year in excess OF its entire
assessed valuation.
We do not know how many other agricultural
countries in Montana, if any, make good show
ing as this but we do know that considering the
tent of development here, it is very remarkable
one An especially satisfactory feature of the sit
uation is that the present output OF products from
the agricultural industries is just indication of
what is to follow when thousands of tracts that are
still more or less in the "homsteading" stage be-
come fully developed farms The valuation will,

TALK ON VOLCANO

Ed Towse, vice-chariman of the Pro-

Of ability and he has specialized in
lecturing to the navy.
At least, as a volunteer talker on
Hawaii subjects, he has aided the Pro-
motion Committee number of times
in the past when Uncle Sans war
vessels were in port, and when the
Promotion Committee took up the sug-
gestion of lecture Wednesday night
on board the U. s. S. Maryland now IN
port, Towse was the man at once
picked for the job.
The lecture is planned largely be-
cause the Maryland men and those Of
the submarine flotilla are going to
visit the volcano and Towse's talk
will emphasize the volcano and the
trip to it. The talk Will be illustrated
by lantern-slides.
In 1908, when the big battleship fleet
visited Honolulu on its way around
the world TOwse gave number OF
talks which proved very popular. This
is the second time he has lectured on

SUBSTITUTE FOR OPIUM
INTHE TREATMENT OF DIABETES

A number of medical writer's agree
that Opium (Codein) is their only
agent to reduce sugar in Diabetes.
But, due to its inhibtiOns, it cannot
be given in large doses or long enough
and failure is the rule We announce
to physicians that FultOns DiabetiC
Compound is more definite in its &C
ton on the sugar Of Diabetes than
Opium, is without it's faults and has
this distinct advantage-it does not
suppress but assimilates the sugar,
and containing no dangerous or habit
forming constituents can be given in
sufficient doses and for a sufficient
time to get physiological results, viz:
absorption Of the sugar in many cases.
This gives the physician a free hand
to aid as his judgment suggests.
There is no conflict. In people over
fifty the disappearance Of the sugar is
commonly followed by the gradual
elimination Of the thirst. weakness
and painful symptoms, recoveries be-
ing reported in many cases as a nat
