Greatest Marine Horror
Of All History Disclosed

Paris, March 3.-The greatest ocean
disaster in modern times was disclos-
ed today when the French minister OF
marine announced that there were
nearly 1000 men aboard the French
auxiliary cruiser Provence when she
was sunk in the Mediterranean on Fen.
26. A previous statement said about
$40 men had been saved, indicating
that upward of $3.50 lives were lost.
It was stated on board the Provence
were the staff Of the Third Colonial in
fantry regiment; the third battalion.
the second company Of the first bat
TALON, the second machine gun COM
pany and one extra company, in all
nearly 1000 ment.
Up to the present the largest num-
Der of lives lost in one wreck was
when the Titanic struck an iceberg off
the Newfoundland banks on April 4,
1912, and sank with death loss of
1885. The rescued numbered TAB.
The French ministry of marine had
previously issued no statement as to
the number of persons on the Prov
ence when she went down. The vessel,
however, when in the transatlantic
service could carry 1860 persone, in
Guiding the crew, and it has been pre-
sumed that as she was transporting
troops between ports not far apart, she
was carrying number of men larger
than her normal capacity.
The official statement, issued Feb.
20, announcing the sinking Of the Prov
ence said: "The French auxiliary
cruiser Provence, engaged in trans
porting troops to Saloniki, was sunk in
the Mediterranean Feb. 26. Two hum
dred and ninety.six survivors have
been brought to Malta and about 400
to Melos by French and British patrol
vessels summoned by wireless.
mo signs of a submarine were no.
ticed either before or after the sinking
1.-The Provence was armed with five
cannon of IA centimeters, two Of So
milimeters and four of At milimeters"
| Details Of the Provence's sinking are
not available. No further official
statement has been issued and unoffi-
cial sources have no definite Informal
ton as to the manner in which the
vessel met disaster-whether by tor
pedo, mine or internal explosion.
Although the actual number of lives
lost by the sinking of the Provence is
the greatest marine calamity of years.
| it cannot be compared to the loss of
| large passenger liners wherein many
and some times majority of the vic
Tins are women and children.
The purely military nature of the
Provence and the general calmness
! with which the French have viewed
large military losses will mitigate the
/ effect Of the disaster which when COM
pared with losses in many individual
battles does not appear so formidable.
1t has for instance very little Of the
tragic element that attended the sink
ing of the Cunard line steamship,
Lusitania, which was torpedoed by
German submarine and sunk off the
head of Kinsale, Ireland, on May Z,
1915, with the loss of 1906 lives.

At this level the market seemed to

Reports of an easier freight situation

$4,000 JUDGMENT REVERSED.
Appellate Court Changes Verdict in
Behrend Insurance Case.

The District Court Of Appeals in an
opinion by Chief Justice Shepard today
reversed judgment for $4,000 rendered
by the lower court against the Supreme
Council Of the Royal Arcanum. The judy
ment had been in favor Of Mrs. Sue B.
Behrend for a certificate of insurance on
the life of her husband, Samuel K. Beh-
rend, and had been granted on affidavit
without jury trial.
The appellate court declared 1t was
error to render judgment for the plain
tiff on the affidavit and said that 'if
the association can show that the in
sured, being Of sound mind at the time,
regularly changed the beneficiary in
the certificate in compliance with the
laws Of the order, the old certificate be-
came null and void and the plaintiff
would have no right to recover upon
it. The Royal Arcanum claimed that
the benedciary's name was changed
and that 1t paid the person named in
the new certificate.

FARM RESERVE FIGURES
DEPRESS Wheat PRICES
Lower Liverpool Quotations Also
Help to Discourage Bull
Traders Today.

CHICAGO. March 6.-Bearish esti-
mates of farm reserves in the United
States tended to depress the wheat
market. Besides Liverpool quotations
were lower. and it was said tonnage for
Argentine and Australian shipments
was becoming liberal. The bulls were
discouraged also by the absence of
any signs of important new export
transactions.
Opening prices. which ranged II to
1Ma1A lower. with May at 1.12h to
112A. and July at 1.0sk to Ito were
followed by a rally, but then fresh
decline.
Corn Prices Are Higher.
Corn rose on account of unfavorable
weather. Offerings were light. After
opening unchanged to y higher, the
market scored substantial general
advance.
Oats assembled with corn. There was
but little pressure to sell.
Firmness in the hog market gave
some strength to provisions. Trade.
however, was not heavy.
Subsequently wheat crop damage re-
ports from the soft winter states gave
the bulls control of the market. es-
pecially as the Ohio state report radi-
cally lowered the condition percentage
of winter wheat, and there were au-
thoritative advices that much winter
wheat acreage in southern Oklahoma
and northern Texas had been reseeded
to oats. The close was strong, 2l4 a2h
to 2ha2% net higher with May at
115h and July at 1.12& a1.12R.
Removal Of hedges on 100000 BUSH
els of corn destroyed by fire at Peoria
frightened the corn market still more
The close was nervous, at 112a1 Is to
1aa1h net advance.

held for the account Of producers in
tanks and pipe lines. They held out no
hope. however. that the increased sup
