SPECIAL SESSION OF
CONGRESS IS URGED

ST. LOUIS, June 22.-Congressman
L. C. Dyer of the Twelfth Missouri
district today wrote a letter to Pres
ident Wilson urging him to call a
special session Of the siXty-fourth
congress at the earliest possible date
to enable the enactment of law pro-
hibiting the expectation of war ma
terial to any belligerent country dur
ing the continuance of the present
European war.
Mr. Dyer in the letter says 1t is his
opinion that the manufacture and
sale of arms should be placed under
the supervision of the government
and that "it should be made impOs-
sible for other nations to carry on war
with the help of the American
people
Mr. Dyer presents several reasons
for this request, chief among which
are the following:
Il. That irrespective of the out
come of the present conflict it will
if long continued-end with the com
Dlete exhaustion of the white race In
Europe, exposing L to attacks by IN
ferior races and threatening with de-
struction.
"2. If it were possible to prevent
the sale of American arms and am
munition in Mexico, peace could be
established there without difficulty.

AMERICAN BANKERS
MAKE FRENCH LOAN

NEW YORK, June 22.-Confirm-
alton of the French credit by Amer
lean bankers was received today
when j. =. Morgan & Co. announced
the virtual completion of one-year
loan to the Paris branch of the
ROthschilds, the latter acting for
the French bankers.
The amount of the loan and it's
interest yield are yet to be deterrn-
ined. but it is intimated that the
sum is not likely to exceed fifty
million dollars at approximately five
per cent. 1t will be secured by col
lateral in the form of high-grade
American railway bonds to be placed
with Morgan & Co. These bonds
include some of the senior securities
of Americas premier road of which
many millions of dollars worth are
owned by French investors
The proceeds Of the loan will be
used by the French government for
payment here of its heavy CONNER
cial obligations incurred in the pur-
chase of war supplies and foOdstuffs.
1t is believed that the outcome of
this transaction will tend materially
to relax the strained credit condi-
tions between New York and Paris
and bring some ease to the London
exchange market, which has been
the financial medium between New
York and Paris of recent months.

AT THE CITY WELL

Some drilling operations, with
view to securing more water, were
completed yesterday, two holes be-
ing put down % feet lower, from the
bottom of the city well. Since put
ting in the electric pump, which lifts
500 gallons per minute, the supply of
water in the well has proved insuffi-
cient. The reservoir empties in
about As minutes, and several pump
ings a day are required. What is
wanted is a supply of 525 gallons a
minute, for "a hours, so that pumping
will not have to be done but or
times a day, and the necessity OF
keeping man on duty at night will
be avoided.
Underlying the 10 feet of clay at
the bottom of the well, is stratum
of gravel. Owing to the pressure
which was formed, when the water
in the big well was pumped down 40
feet, the water boiled up through the
10 foot stratum of clay, causing the
"riliness", which has characterized it
while the work was in progress, but
is expected to disappear by the
time you are able to read this.
