QUESTIONS BRITISH FINANCE.
German Imperial Treasurer Points Out
Alleged Unsatisfactory Evidences.

Berlin, Feb. s, wireless to Sayville.-
DR.. Karl Helfferich, secretary of the
German imperial treasury, yesterday
made reply, according to the Overseas
News agency, to questions propounded
recently to Germany by Sir Edward
Holden at the annual meeting of the
London City and Midland bank, of
which Sir Edward is managing director.
In addition to replying to Sir Edwards
questions regarding Germany's finances,
DIR. Heliferich in turn interrogated Sir
Edward with regard to the finances Of
Great Britain.
To the question whether German as
sets in foreign countries still exist DIR.
Helfferich said billions of German AS
sets were being withheld by England un.
der receivership against law and equity.
He then asked what conclusion was to
be drawn as to England's finance from
the fact that Great Britain, through
Sir Edward, foated loan in the United
States to strengthen the exchange rate
ON the English pound.
With regard TO the decrease in Ger
man exports, DIR. HelfTerich pointed out
that Great Britains exports had shrunk
by half and that imports, inclusive of
those of the government, had swelled
to such an extent that the balance Of
trade against Great Britain was now
500,000,000 pounds instead of l50,000,000
pounds as formerly.
To Sir Edwards question whether
Germany's foreign security holdings had
not all been sold, DIR. Heltfefieh replied
that Great Britain's search of mail on
neutral ships for foreign securities "and
the discoveries made on these occasions
must sufficiently edify Sir Edward con
cerning the actual existence of large
German holdings of such securities"
DIR. Helfferich, with regard to the
charge of imitation of German paper cir
culation, said the war credit banks, mort |
gage banks and insurance companies
never issued bank notes. He also said |
that the Reichsbank statements did not |
mention an ounce OF gold which was
not in the banks vault. He said re.
ports of riots in Germany in which hun
gry women We're shot down by the mill
AIRY were inventions. As to future /
axes in Germany, the secretary said
.he war was costing her two shillings
Der head of the population in Great Brit
lin as against one shilling in Germany.

Arizona are alarmed over the reports

officers. The Indians opened fire on the
police when they attempted to arrest
a fellow tribesman and one was killed
by the officers. according to information
received by Thomas Flynn, United States
district attorney.

Except for the continuation of in
tense bombardment along the Franco
Belgian front, there are few reports OF
activity from the major fields of mill
tary operations. Whether the notable
play of German, French and British
gums on hostile positions is preparatory
TO important infantry operations or is
for minor purposes only is not appar-
ent.
The current official statements, as well
as independent reports. indicate a con-
tinuation of the state of guietude along
the broad front where the Russians and
Teutons have been facing each other
for months with few changes of terri
tory. Only in the Caucasus apparently
are the Russian armies active. The Pet
rograd war Office reports continued adj
vances there against the Turks, both
north and south of Erzerum, the Rus
sian forces having pressed further west
ward along the Black sea coast and along
the northern shores of Lake Van.
Reports are current in London that
Field Marshal SEarl Kitchener, is to take
over the command of the British forces
in Egypt and that Earl Derby, who has
been in charge of recruiting, is to be
the new secretary of state for war.
These reports are not confirmed.
