APOLOGY MADE BY BRITAIN.
Expresses Regret for Seizure of Amer
lean Goods for Manila.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-Informal
expressions of regret have been made
by Great Britain to the state DEPART
ment for seizure at Hongkong of
American owned goods consigned to
Manila on board the steamships Chi
nesc Prince, Kafue and Aymerio. In
response to a vigorous protest by the
United States assurances have been
given that there would be no more
seizures of this kind.
The British action was first ex-
planned on the ground that the goods
were consigned to blacklisted firms. II
was asserted that several of the firms
were ringleaders in junta alleged to
be seeking to cause a rebellion in II.
dia.
The seizure of packages from the
Chinese Prince caused a very bitter
feeling in Manila, and a maximum
fine was levied on her when she en-
tered the port with her manifest short
The fine was later reduced to $685.
aad finally rebated when the missing
goods arrived on another ship.

BLooDsHED AT CUBAN RALLY.
Two Killed and Twenty-six Wounded
in a Political Fight

HAVANA, Sept. 26. : Two men were
killed and % wounded as the result of
a conflict between Conservatives and
Liberals at Camajuani, Santa Clara
Province, yesterday. The fighting took
place at a Conservative rally. As usual,
each political party blames the other for
the bloodshed. The Liberals appear to
have been the better shots, as IS Con-
lservatives and only eight Liberals, in
Guiding the Liberal chief of police, were
wounded.
The Conservatives assert that the
Liberals boosted their intention to dis
Iperse the Conservative parade, and
warned their families not to attend it.
They say the chief of police, with nine
policemen armed with rifles, opened fire
on the paraders without cause. The
/ Liberals say that the Conservatives
when they saw the policemen, opened
| fire without provocation.
Government troops now patrol tho
town and a military supervisor has
been appointed.

TO BRING QUOTA UP

More Systematic Methods of Recruit

OTTAWA, September 26.-More sys-
tematic recruiting methods are to be
put in force in Canada, it was an
nounced here yesterday, to bring the
Dominion s contribution to the allied
armies up to the half million quota
promised Great Britain. The present
more or less haphazard methods have
raised 100000 men, but this system,

speeded up and district officers powers
enlarged.
There is to be an additional service
board to increase enlistments with Sir

Americas Trade for Month
Makes New Record in
Worlds Commerce
GOLD TIDE FLOWING
TO THIS COUNTRY
Decrease of Imports Swells the Month S
Trade Balance to the Enormous To-
tai of 1911, 100000 - Years Exports
$3.50. 600 600.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 2G.-For the
hrst time in history the value of ex
ports from the United States in any
one month has passed the half-billion
dollar mark. This is a record for all
countries as we'll as the United States.
The tremendous total was achieved in
August, when the value of exports was
S5lO,OO0,OOO, or $50, 100000 more than
the previous high record, which was
established in May, and 100000
higher than the June total.
This unprecedented expectation is
due to the war in Europe Enormous
shipments from the United States are
made necessary by the lack of produc-
ton in the belligerent countries, and
the demand for war munitions and the
materials of which they are made, as
well as foodstutfs, horses, and other
products of the United States.
There >was a decrease in Imports into
the United States in August, and this
has sWelled the balance of trade in
favor of this country. Imports in that
month amounted i'll value to $l99, 247.-
39l, or decline of $47, 100000 as com
pared with June, the record month.
The value of imports in August, how
ever, was greater than any prior Au-
gust.
The exports for the year ended with
August amounted to $3.50. 900. 900, and
the imports $4,000, 100000. Both totals
are far in excess of those for a similar
lperlod in any previous year. OF the
/ August imports Cos per cent entered
free of duty compared with CTS per
cent III August, 1915.
| The favorable trade balance for An
lgust was 1911 100000, compared with
an export balance of $l19,OO00O in
August, 1915, and an import balance OF
iSl9,Oo00OO in August, 1914. For the
twelve months to Aug. 81, 1916, the ex
port balance was $2,465. O00, 900, a.
against 1868 100000 in the preceding
iyear and 1914 100000 two years ago.
The net inward gold movement 70
), the month of August was 500 1000. 600
and for the year, $4,000, 900, a recor,
total. Last year the net inward gol,
: movement was $4,000, 900, and tw,
years ago net outward movement o
| $4,000, 900.
Gold imports in August were 81 ,23S

Knockout of CLANCY Brought
Back Old Popularity.
Champion Has Many OppOr-
tunitis to Make Money Now.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Sept. 27-That six-inch
punch which Jonathan Kilbane eased
upon the jaw of one George CLANCY
has made the Irishman a reigning ia
vorite again and has restored him to
the ranks of the big money makers
Just before that CLANCY affair Kill
bane was about as popular with the
fight fans as the Giants used to be in
the bygone days. He was referred to
as a lemon picker, a staller, piker
champion, a grand dancer-and moth
ing more. In the era which imme-
diately preceded that Cedar Point
bout, Kilbane was having a hard time
of it getting $1,000 or so for his fights.
That was because the fans had be-
come disguised with his work and the
promoters, as natural consequence.
wouldn't pay him any real money.
But now all is changed.
Kilbane fairly stunned the fighting
supporters figured he might outpoint
him, but none ever thought he would
score a knockout. They thought the

Kilbane has been offered a dozen
different fights for the coming win
ter, and each carried with it a big
guarantee. The chances are that the
champion will shake down the pro-
motors for $4,000 to $4,000 during
the six months. provided he accepts
all the bouts that have been pushed at
him. Also, he has a chance of snar-
ing about $4,000 additional shekels if
that talked of match with Freddie
Welsh ever goes thru
Kilbane today is the outstanding
man in his division. When he sent
CLANCY into the land of SnooZe. he dis
posed of his only formidable rival. OF
course, there are a dozen other boys
who think they have a chance with
the title holder and who may get it
before the snowflakes cease to fit
over this nation. But Kilbane isn't
in much danger of losing his crown
until better foes than those of today
rise up to give him battle.
And that's all the more reason why
the fans are anxious for him to try
conclusions with Welsh. The Kilbane
partisans feel that their boy can beat
Welsh. despite the big weight handi-
cap he must concede. They reason
that Kilbane is Welshs equal as a
boxer, that he is even a better ring
general and that he can hit as hard
as Welsh.
