U-53 EPISODE
ExCITES FAITH
IN U-B0AT WAR
German Industrial Leaders
Urge Unrestricted Raids.
War Must Be Fought to Finish
Is Their Sentiment.
CARRY IT TO AMERICAN COAST
ave Can't Make War as Ameri-
cans Want It."
But Would Maintain Friendli-
ness for United States.

Dusseldorf, Germany, Oct. 10
Nearly every big industrial leader in
the Rhine valley industrial center,
which is Germany's Pittsburg, favors
ruthless submarine warfare, regard
less of the interests of the United
States. Chancellor Won Bethmann-
HoIlweg faces the opposition of the
industrial interests of both the Rhine
and Westfalian provinces, hotbeds OF
Won Tirpitzism. These interests are
now centering their hopes of winning
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg to their
side.
THE war must be fought to
finish" said the Westfaelische Zeitung
which fairly represents the sentiment
of the district in this respect. Either
Germany or England must win and
the interests here on the Rhine are
ready to fight until Germany wins"
Germany's Carnegie Interviewed.
Directors of Germany's steel trust
and other millionaires in this indus
trial country, declare unreservedly
that Germany will not make peace
until England asks terms. The Rhine
land press is still discussing War Sec
rotary Lloyd Georges recent state
ment to the American press, that the
allies must carry the war to a knock
out" and they hold that this statement
justifies their contention, that Ger
many must use every possible weapon
against England. The activities of the
U-53 have greatly increased their
faith in the possibilities of unlimited
summarizing.
August Thyssen, Germany's Carne-
gle, declared in an interview that since
England is still the great sea power,
it was necessary for Germany to oper-
ate submarines along the Canadian
and American coasts to overcome this
advantage.
ut can be imagined that this is
uncomfortable for America, but it
must be remembered we are at war
with Canada and this is one of the
means of ending the war" said Thys-
sen. I'VE can't always make war as
America wants.
DO you think Germany wants war
with American he was asked.
Doesn't Want War With U. S.
Never" was the emphatic response.
First. because we have enemies
enough and second because in peace
times our relations with America are
always most friendly and we want
them to continue so after the war
| We are always most sympathetic to-
| ward America. The world interests
| of both countries will develop thru
peace"
Thyssen does not believe an eco
nomic war will follow the present war.
| w e WdHI peace because we desire
| to develop industries in peace, not
war; he said. "A few, who because
they manufacture ammunition want a
long war do not speak for Germany
because we do not intend to live after
the war by manufacturing ammuni-
ton"
Thyssen is an intimate friend of the
kaiser. Before the war he often met
Judge Gary of the United States Stee
corporation, and his son, Fritz, studied
the Pittsburg steel and coal indus
tries. He is one Of the few industrial
leaders who oppose Adviral Won Tir-

ing Charles E. Hughes, personally for
the first time in the campaign, Pres
ident Wilson Thursday said:
ANY man who revives sectionalism
in this country is unworthy Of the
confidence of the nation
The great crowd cheered loudly for

provincialism, his own ignorance, it is
the depth of anti-patriotic feeling

nations to maintain peace after the
present war.
Probably 100000 people lined the

Wall St, New York, Oct. 13.-STOCKS-
The usual backing and filling occurred in
the first hour, due to profit-taking, Many
initial gains underwent material reduction
but in several important instances. not
ably rails and shipping issues early adj
vices were extended. Norfolk and West

rine preferred increased its gain to 3
points, with 4 for Atlantic Gulf and West
indies, while Lacakawanna Steel featured
its particular class at a 4 ~ point advance.
Gas and eLather issues yielded none of
their early strength and numerous IN
classified specialties seemed to be in better
demand.
Bonds were firm.
Resumption of trading over the holiday
was accompanied by a higher range of
prices and other manifestations of conf
dence by the improvement in stocks most
affected by developments of the early week.
Mercantile Marine preferred soon rose over
3 points and some of the war and equip
ment issues were better by to points.
Rails were irregular but substantially
higher. Norfolk and Western and nUion

It forced Hughes's hand to a GER

shores had been disposed of, before

last night forced earlier answer to the

Members of his immediate party

Embryo "Stars' Prosecute Man Who
Got Their Money.

Chicago. Oct. 13.-Young women
who would be moving picture act
resses to the number of at least a
dozen, were expected to appear at the
trial today in the Clark street court,
of Samuel B. Wringer, a retired law
yer, who was arrested yesterday on the
charge of operating a confidence
game.
Wringer was taken into custody
upon the complaint of Miss Alma L.
Kruger, who told the police she quit
a good job as nurse to become a NOV
ing picture actress under his direction.
1t is said there are at least a dozen
more young women in the same situa-

the young women to buy stock in a
concert he was promoting at 500 a
share, in return for which they were
to receive instruction in the mysteries
of the screen studio and dividends and
also salaries when the concern should
become operative.

CORN-COrn rose with wheat. The mar
ket was bullishly affected also by unfavor-
able weatherin the domestic corn belt.

prices made moderate gains all around.

Strength of other grain failed to act as an
