On Wednesday. a string of six or
eight wagons, some of them drawn
by four mules. rolled into Monroe, all
loaded with wheat for the Henderson
Roller Mill. They came from Ker-
shaw county and had driven SO miles
to get here. A great deal of wheat
was planted last fall in sections that
had not grown any in a quarter of a
century. The old time mills about
the country have long been discontin-
ued or fell into decay, and there are
few roller mills. Hence, when the
war broke out last fall and knocked |
the cotton prospects silly and farmers
again began sowing wheat. there were
little facilities for milling it. A mill
has been started at Ruby in Chester
field county and 1t is now being over
run day and night. The Monroe mill
is the nearest to a large section of
country.

Three New Haven youngsters with an inclination to see the world at the expense of the New Haven and other railroads, were aIraigned before Judge Bartlett in the city court this morning charged with train riding.

 They were pulled off a freight train 'in the East End freight yards aboct g o'clock last evening. In the city court MoNamara, the spokesman of the trio of youngsters, said that they were sat isf1ed as they had had the opportunity of seeing. Bridgeport, "a city they hear so much about up home"
 Judge Bartlett suspended judgment in each case and advised the boys to return to the City of Elns by way of the state highway.

AMERICA's GREATEST
 CITY A BANKRUPT

A city, like an individual or pri- vate corporation, can become a bank rupt, writes Senator William M. Ben nett, of the 18th Senate District of New York state, in the October Strand LraGazine. Insolvency is no more of a respector of a government than it is of person or an organiza- tion of any description. Doubtless many persons would be surprised to hear the statement made that the greatest city in the United States, the second city in the world. is bank rupt. Yet such is the startling fact.
 New York city is a bankrupt. This city, in population larger than any state in the Union except the state of Pennsylvania, and exceeding in popu- 1ation many of the smaller govern ments of the world, has a gross fund ed debt of $1.S67, ,o0o,0 900 and an an- nua1 budget of $2oo,ooo,o0o.
 To show by way of comparison the magnitude of these items, the debt of s1.2O0,ooo, 900 and the annual inter est and amortization charges $55,- 100000; and the debt of Italy $1,- 500, 100000, the debt of Japan $1,- 300, 100000, the debt of Austrian Hun gary s1,Ooo, 100000, the debt of the United States $1,028, ,00o,O0O and in every instance the interest and
 
 than similar charges of the city of New York.
 So far as the annual budget was concerned the total expenditures of the city of New York were more than many of the governments of the world. Norway spent but $36;O00,- 900, Portugal ss5. 100000, Spain $22o, 100000, Sweden $7O,0OO.00o, while the total expenditures of the city of New York. including it's budget were nearly 4oO,00O,0O0.
 The income of the city of New York is derived mainly from a direct tax on real property, which will amount this year to over $16O, 100000. The balance of it's budget is derived from various sinking fund revenues, such as dock leases, water rents, licenses, interest on investments of the sink ing fund. interest on bank balances and many other smaller items.
 The real estate tax is levied on an assessed valuation of $8,1OO,0o0, ,000. In other words that amount is what city have been estimated to be worth. This valuation, it is the belief of com potent real estate men, is now largely in excess of the real value Of the city S real estate. During the last year of Mayor Lows administration and dur ing Mayor McC1e11an's administration and that of Mayor Gaynor, several billions were added to the assessed valuation of the city, although in most cases the increased assessments were not warranted. While business was good and real estate f1ourishing g property owners paid their taxes with out murmuring, but now that the business conditions are changed, there is a determined effort being

FORMER U. s. SENATOR
 BULKELEY PROTESTS
 ON BIRTH OF NATTON''

Hartford, Sept. 24.-Forner' Senator Morgan G. BuIkeIey called upon Mayor Lawler yesterday and filed a protest against the appearance of the picture films depicting 'The Birth of a Ma tion'' at local theatre. The former senator said he had witnessed the pro- duct1on in conppany wfTh Senator :Mur- ray Crane of Massachusetts, and they were of one mind that it was united for general showing.
 The pictures are now being shown in Philadelphia The first perform ances, Monday evening, were attended by a riot. Several hundred colored men gathered in front of the theatre and started a demonstration The po- lice charged them and a number were taken to the hospital with cracked heads.
 The mayor has not yet given any in dication of his decision in the matter. As yet no definite announcement con cerning the appearance of the films has been made.

per cent. exclusive of the debt service, will soon be reached. Should this occur and should the city not be able to pay it's obligations promptly when due, a receivership either at the hands of the legislature or of the courts is not unlikely 10 ensue. and there are many excellent men in the city of New York, good patriots, who feel that this would not be unwelcomed. The city of Memphis was once put in the hands of receivers by the legisls- ture and several smaller TE1unicipalt- ties have been placed in receivers hands by the courts. In August the city of Nashville. Tenneesee. was placed in the hands of a. receiver by the Chancery Court of Tennessee

The officers walked upright throughout When the crest was lined, the commander went for ward in different directions On his return he gave a few orders to his officers; one of them was a little ex- cited, and called out :I have an in stfnct that it will go right; God grant thaf 1t is a. true one" and turning to his men he shouted God is with us Except for this, nothing broke the atmosphere of the evening still ness.
 well, children, said the com nnander, What shall I say to you With God! Forwardi''
 One company went off to. the wood on the right and after a, few min utes another with the commander and myself moved forward over the bare hill, leaving two others to follow in reserve. The men advanced in little groups creeping in line wftdn each otn- CT; the officers walked about freely, often in advance of the men, or en- courag1ng any that showed too much caution. The commander and [ branched off into che edge of the wood; he turned and smiled to me as the shrapnel tore away Some of the botghs. At the bottom the machine guns were hurried up, and we as cended the further slope.
 We were now on a. bare height which was like tongue projecting forward, and hot musk etry fire was opened on us. A man near me called opt he was wounded and rolled him self down to the hollow where a. bear CT set about bandaging him; a shell burst beyond us and another called out. One could see what happened to the men nearest to one.
 The commander continued to stroll 1 about among the men, in the same way as he would have done out of him to lie down. We, went around 1 the height and he brought his men everywhere to the edge of it and told them to entrench themselves, which they set about doing at once. We could see where the bullets came from ontthe low ground in front. To our left was a ridge with trees, along I which we could see men on horseback coming from the direction of the en- emy. To our right beyond the wood, was a high ridge covered with men, who appeared to be advancing upon us but did not open fire.
 Sudden column of blue figures was seen coming up close on our front, In what seemed a minute, two of our machine guns had been moved to this side. Round some brusf-wood l 30 yards away came the first rush of l the columns; one caught sight of a line of pale faces. Our commander shouted orders; a young officer c1enched his fist; our gunners ground l out a shower of bullets; and the Aus trian column disappeared into the wooded valley.
 Later in the day, after I had gone
 back to headquarters, I learned that the little commander had been brought 1 into the town wounded in the head 1T the last Austrian attack.
 I In the evening retreated with the Dfvisd onal Staff several miles te l new quarters. All along the road
