BRITISH OWNERS START
SUIT TO GET THE "APPAM"
Prize Ship Captured by Germans Is UP
for Another Argument.

for Another Argument.
Washington. ~ A libel suit institut-
ed by British owners of the liner APP
pam to recover the ship from the
German prize crew that brought it in
to Hampton roads is expected by state
department officials to result in prize
court ruling that will clear away many
perplexing features which have con-
fronted them in dealing with the case.
With Germany asking that, as a
prize, the Appam be allowed to remain
Indefinitely in American waters, un
der the Prussian treaty of 1928, and
Great Britain insisting that the liner
must be restored to her owners, under
The Hague convention of 1907, depart
ment officials would welcome judg-
ment by a competent tribunal, not on
ly for guidance in the present case
but as a precedent for the future.
The department, in the absence OF
such precedent, has held tentatively
that the Appam is German prize, but
never has passed formally upon Ger
many's request that the vessel be al
lowwed to remain indefinitely in our
wawters. A reply to that request now
is in course of preparation and indi-
cations have been that it would be
granted. 1t is said, however, that the
response might wait until the prize
court had acted.

when the metric system is used.

Many people get started buying
from catalog houses, or away from
home, we believe, not primarily be-
cause they have "got it in" for the
home merchant or the home town,
but because the purchases so made
have been suggested to them by the
attractive publicity matter of the
Outsiders" and because they didn't
know, or think or remember that
YOU had the goods. Insofar as this
may be true, the only way to meet 1t
is by the right and effective use of
publicity. If publicity pays them, 1T
should pay you, and you do not need
to spend anywhere near as much az
the mail order houses do to get pro-
portionately effective publicity in

OVER 500 LEPERs MENACE US.

Washington. - Hore than 500 lepers
at large in the United States consti-
tute menace of serious possibilities
unless proper steps for segregation
are taken, in the opinion of physicians,
nurses and others who testified before
the senate health committee in sup
port of bill to establish a national
leprosarium.
The witnesses, all of whom had
made extensive personal researches on
the subject, agreed that the 300 per-
sons under treatment in the country's
three state or municipal leper asylums
included a lesser part of the total of
those afflicted. They declared that the
disease was rapidly spreading; that
the danger of a serious epidemic was
real and that segregation was the first
demand in the campaign against it.

TURKSSURROUNDED
BY RUSSIAN ARMY
ALONG BLACK SEA COAST CARS
BATTLESHIPS MENACE
THE ENEMY.
CITY OF ERZERUM CAPTURED
Germans Make Vigorous, Campaign
Against British and French Along
User Canal in Belgium, North of
Ypres-French Gain.

London.-The Russian army which
captured Arzerum is endeavoring to
cut off the retreat of the Turks. Along
the Black sea coast Russian battle
ships are harassing the enemy, and the
northern wing of the victorious army
has captured the town of Wide and
is driving the Turks in the direction of
Gumish Khaneh, on the road to Ire
bizond.
Russians are moving westward from
Erzerum with the object of cutting
off the Turkish troops before they can
reach new line of defense.
British Trenches Taken.
The Germans have been operating
vigorously against British and French
along the User canal in Belgium to
the north of Ypres. From the British
$50 meters Of position were captur-
ed and held, despite efforts to recap
ture it. After heavy bombardment,
the Germans attempted to cross the
canal and occupy French positions,
and several groups did succeed in
making their way to first-line trench.
The French, however, Immediately
drove them back
The British to the south of Loos in
a lively engagement succeeded in
making an advance to the edge of a
mine crater held by the Germans.
French Hit Foe Hard.
The French in Champagne, between
the Mouse and Moselle rivers and to
the west of the forest of Apremont,
have bombarded successfully German
positions, while in the Argonne forest
a mine exploded by the French shat
tered the German works.
Only isolated engagements have
taken place on the Russian front. On
the Austro-Italian line the artillery
duels continue.
Continuing their advance in Albania
the Austro-Hungarians report the cap
ture, near Bazar-Sjak short distance
northeast of Durazzo, of an advanced
Italian position. This is the first in
dication that the Italians were operat-
ing so far north in Albania, the belief
having prevailed that their activities
had been confined to the locality adj
jacent to Avlona.
That progress is being made by the
Teutonic allies in the direction of
Avlona seemingly is shown by the re-
port that the Albanians who are fight
ing with them have occupied the town
of Berat, situated about 81 miles to
the northeast of Avlona

THE SPOKANE MARKET.

The growing belief that the Euro
pean war will be a long one has had
stimulating effect on the general bust
ness outlook during the past week or
two. Coupled with this the fact that
no disturbing factors have been in evil
dence, any early restriction in the
prosperity that the country has been
enjoying seems to be out of the ques-
ton. There is no doubt that there is
now a much wider domestic consum-
ing demand than at any time since the
war began. This naturally arises from
the fact that labor is now we'll en-
ployed in practically all sections of the
country at good wages. 1t is not very
difficult to figure out that when peo-
pie have money and are willing to
spend it, times should be good.
Provisions.
Butter-There has been no further
changes as to price in the local butter
market since those noted last week.
The supply has been adequate for the
demands, which have been rather mod
crate for several weeks, and the mar
ket is steady. The New York market
records an advance under light re-
ceipts, with creamery extras at 34c.
Good demands with an advance in
price are noted at Chicago, with the
price around 32c.
Eggs-The break in weather condi-
tons has caused a reaction in the egg
market and quotations are off to 5000
to the producers for local fresh and
$1,000 wholesale. Storage stocks have
also been marked down at $500. A
Fresh Meats--The market is holding
steady at same figures as have pre-
vailed for the past week or two and
gives no Indication of a change for the
present at least.
Poultry-No changes are noted in
poultry prices this week, and dealers
say the present figures are all the
market will stand and that if there is
any change it will be reduction. Sup
plies are fairly good with demand
about normal.
Lard and Cured Meats-No change
as to prices during the week, but job
bers indicate that the market is strong
and inclined to advance Lard still
holds firm at present levels.
Fruits and Vegetables.
Apples-The price situation remains
unchanged and this fruit is in very
fair demand. At Chicago the barreled
apple market presents no new features
and trade was quiet at about the same
prices. Arrivals were liberal.
Other Fruits-Oranges are in plenti-
full supply with the quality of the fruit
excellent. Prices remain at about the
same level, though they are inclined
to be little easier. Bananas are in
good demand and hold firm at sc per
pound as for some time.
Pctatoes-Spuds still hold at the adj
vanced figures that have prevailed for
some time, but indications are that
there will soon be slump in the mar
ket If the present weather conditions
continue. A quiet but fairly steady
spud market ruled in New York. A
good deal Of the stock coming was
poor and frozen and had to be reject
ed. Chicago reports market quiet with
no special features.
Other Vegetables-Celery is a little
firmer at $1@1.25 per dozen, as is also
cabbage at $3.50 per cwt. In root veg
etables carrots are easier at 90c while
parsnips are firmer at $1.25. Spinach
and horseradish are now to be had in
jobbing way, the former at 90c per
box and the latter at 121ac per pound.
