me the following written while you wait: There are lights that glow til the east

 On Broadway; There are smiles, like ghosts or the hopes
 long dead,
 On Broadway; There are hearts that throb to the wines
 mad sway, s And the swirl of the ghost-hopes caba-
 ret There's a piper, too. who will have his
 On Broadway. There's laugh newborn in each spark
 ling bowl,
 On Broadway; The bastard babe of wine-wrapped
 soul,
 On Broadway; There's a woman, too, and she seems to Though her hearts as false as her face
 is fair, But we laugh at the scarlet letter there,
 On Broadway. There's circe fair with a promise
 sweet,
 On Broadway; But her swine know naugnt or tnelr
 cloven feet,
 On Broadway; For their fear lies still, and they deem 1t
 dead, Not knowing it only drugged instead, For life is mellow when wine runs red,
 On Broadway. But when all is said, and when all is
 done, On Broadway; When the game is played. and the course is run, On Broadway; Though we found ourselves in that bliss filled sphere, Which desire e'er seeks in it's flight from fear We would give it all, just to be back here, On Broadway So you see, we have found yet another type of Broadway. In fact, the only kinc of person one cannot find on the grand old thoroughfare is the person who knowing it, yet desires to leave it.

 INITIATION DANGER
Some Financiers Have Feared Bad Effects From Having So Much Gold Locked Up in
 Vaults
Ry HOLLAND


 New York, July 1.-(Special.)- )-Six mill lions in gold was received from Canada in the second week in July. This is at the rate of s1, ,ooO, 900 day and this move ent of gold reminds some of those who were associated with the clearing house in New York in the last year of the pas century of the movement of gold from London to the United States at that time. It then often happened that Fred erick D. Happen, one of he executives of the clearing house association, measured and tested for value imported gold of the nominal value of $1,0O0,oOO, keeping this scrutiny up for several weeks. In fact, Mir Happen did not make examination of this kind unless at least $1 ,000, 900 had been deposited with the clearing house by the banks which received the gold from London. The aggregate amount of the movement at that time was approximately $100, 100000
 Then the clearing house vaults were packed with gold to their capacity, and even the aisles were temporarily used for it's storage. Now conveniences for re- ceiving and storing the gold are so many that no embarrassment of the kind the clearing house met with in 1899 has yet oc- cured. Nevertheless, if the movement of gold continues for the rest of the present calendar year it may be neces- sary to secure additional facilities for it's storage.
 The movement of gold to the United States in the past IS months makes a new record not only for this country, but for any other, excepting that England may have received from her own South Afri- can mines approximately as large an amount of fresh gold in IS months time.

RESERVE BOARD AND GOLD

Although some of the financial authori- ties profess themselves to be little con cerned lest too little of this gold is used for commercial or tIaue purposes, or else lest there be gold imitation. Never theless, that does not seem to be the opinion of the federal reserve board at Washington. Paul Warburg has repeat edly counseled not only the conservation of the gold we are now receiving and are yet to receive, but also has expressed the hope that I great deal more will come
 It will be needed by and by. The reports from Washington which tell of the in crease of imports are thought to point rather significantly to very great in- crease of imports after the European war is ended. Moreover, the United States will be called upon to aid in financing other nations and it is believed to be to our own advantage as well as to theirs that we should do this.
 When the financial history of the Euro pean war; and especially it's relation to our own finances, is written, there will be one or two chapters which will tell q story unprecedented in the history of con- mercial nations. At the beginning of the
 European war the United States owed
 Europe a large amount of money upon
 open account The payment for it in gold could be made insistent. There was, how
 ever, no way at the time by means Of
  count in Europe, or even New York city,
 whose short time notes were due, could procure exchange with which to make
 settlement. The rate exacted for foreign
 exchange too high
 Then began that unprecedented work
 of cooperation between American bank
 CTS whereby approximately $200,0o0000 in
 gold was secured. It was the most dra-
 matic and sudden piece of great financing
 that the world has ever known. Much
 of this gold was sent to Canada and some
 members of the syndicate which organ ized this cooperative movement were in
 clined to think that in the course of a
 few months that gold would find it's way
 back to the United States. It has come
 back already in triple fold. To it should be added the accumulation of gold from
 our own mines, and the total amount we now have is so great that some of the
 financiers are wondering whether there is not danger of disastrous gold imitation
 in the United States
 The dearest headed, however, of the
 financiers. and all the members of the
 federal reserve board at Washington are
 persuaded that there is no danger Of
 disa strons gold imitation. If there Is any danger, this will make itself known after
 the close of the European war, when the
 United States will be called upon to face
 greatly changed conditions It will be
 the danger of heavy drain upon our gold
 reserves

RECOGNITION BY ENGLISH

The Bank of England has made formal recognition of this great movement Of gold to the United States by increasing it's discount rate to 6 per cent. Ordinarily the increase in the discount rate by the Bank of England serves to bring in a large amount of gold. Presumably this present increase will do the same. The action however. was taken because 1t Is recognized in London that the United States is now greatly occupied with cer- tain kinds of financing upon a large scale which hitherto would have been done in London The announcement day or two ago of the completion of the negotiation for French loan of $100,000000 is the latest of the instances which show that the United States is now engaged in financing transactions which formerly would have been perfected in London. In addition to this financing, we are having a studendous trade expansion and this, too, at time of the year when our bank CTS must give some heed to the need shortly of preparing for financing the movement of the crops from the field to the market

MAKING A HOT BED.

Select a we'll drained location, where
the bed will be sheltered, preferably on
the south side of building. Make an
excavation IS inches deep the size your
bed is to be. Throw in fresh horse ma
nure and pack by tramping. The manure
heap should be about evn with the sur
face of the ground or I8 inches deep.
The manure furnishes the heat to start
the plants. Put on top of the manure
four or FIVE inches of a good garden
loan, and cover the bed with glass hot
bed sash. If sash cannot be secured,
canvas may be substituted. The tenn
perature will run high for few days,
but no seeds should be planted until the
temperature falls, which will require
three or four days. The frame to sup
port the sash should be I8 inches high
at the back and six inches lower in
front to drain off the water. The slope
should be toward the south.

tons to masters Of British merchant
THE LUSITANIA CASE.


The principal assurance given in the
Lusitania case read as follows:
Liners will not be sunk without
warning by our submarines and without
safety of the lives of non-combatants,
provided that the liners do not try to
escape or offer resistance"
The contention of the Berlin govern
ment is represented as being that all de-
fensively armed British merchantmen
are prepared and instructed not only to
resist, but to attack. Consequently, it
is argued the new policy toward armed
ships squares with international law the
German view being that if the British
merchant ships have been instructed to
violate and do violate the law as in
terpreted by the United States. Ger
many is justified in taking measures in
retaliation
1t is understood that the Austro-
Hungarian embassy here has received
adYlces somewhat similar to those sent
to Count Won Bernstein. 1t could not be
learned tonight whether Baron Erich
Zwiedinek, charge Of the embassy. would
call upon Secretary Lansing and inform
him of the position of his government,
which differs slightly from that of Ger
many because Of the fact that virtually
all Italian ships are armed, although
those leaving American ports do so un-
der pledge that they will not use their
guns when warned by submarine.
Germany, not being at war with Italy,
has no particular interest in Italian
ships
The state department holds that an
unarr1cd ship and ship armed for de-
fensive purposes are in identically the
same cass and must be treated accord
lngly. Officials of the department have
indicated willingness to discuss with
the central European powers the ques-
ton of what may properly be consider
ed defensive armament and there have
been intimations that the government
was considering revising its instructions
to port authorities in this regard.
