England to Have
 Minister of Loans

London, Aug. 9.-To relieve the Chancellor of the Exchequer of some of the responsibility for the issue of exchequer bonds, war loans, etc, still another office is practically certain to be added to the Cabinet, in the form of the Ministry of Loans, according to a political writer in the Weekly Dis patch.
 When McKinnon Wood takes over the position of Financial Secretary to the Treasury, after resigning the Scotch Secretaryship it will be found that he will take over the duties of the new office, the writer says.
 The Ministry of Loans will be the third new Cabinet office to have been created during the war, the other two being the Ministry of Munitions and the Ministry of Blockade. In the ordinary course, the addition would mean a cabinet of 24, but in future it is regarded as certain that the Chancellorship of the Duchy of Lan- caster will be filled by Minister holding a second office, thus keeping the number down to 23.
 McKinnon Wood has always held that thrift should be the concern of the state. His capacity for the new office rests on extensive business ex- perience, he having carried on the family business as a merchant suc- cessfully. His aptitude was reflected in his work as a member of the Fi- nance Committee of the London County Council. His business knowl- edge is widely recognized, and he has contributed papers on commercial subjects to various publications. He would make every effort to induce the small investor to take up war loans and exchequer bond issues. He displayed especial interest in the Scotch War Loan Committees work, and some time ago hinted that fresh taxation would follow any slackening in the taking up of war issues.

PERONNE, FACING
 ARTILLERY FIRE,
 BADLY DAMAGED.

German Great Headquarters. Via Berlin, Tuesday, Aug. 8 and London, Aug. s-Since yesterday the famous old French city of Peronne has been under French. artillery fire, resulting in a great conflagration which threat ems to, wipe it out. Already the fine collection of paintings of Italian and Flemish masters has been destroyed by shells which landed squarely in the city half where the most valuable art objects from the museum had been housed for protection.
 in addition to the paintings, which were torn to shreds. the shells de- stroyed unreplaceable collections of medieval Gernmnic silver and semi precious stone work, Celtic coins dat ing from time of the Roman invasion. and medallions. Houses in some streets have. been reduced to ashes. It is considered doubtful whether Peronne's celebrated wood houses in the late Gothic style and the cathe- dral of St. John can be saved from the flames.

Two Bridgeport Men
 Get Hearings Before Secretary,C. D. Burnes
Special to The Farmer )

Hartford, Aug. Skinner s. Bassett of Bridgeport, charged with reckless driving, was arraigned before Secre- tary of State Charles D. Burnes yes- terday. His case was continued at his request.
 Albert H. Moskwitz of Stamford ad- mitted running into a boy while rid ing his motorcycle, but said he was riding behind large touring car which shut off his view. The secre- tary told him he would not ride be- hind another car again for ten days, and ask"d him to leave his license for that length of time.
 George H. Smith of Bridgeport who was charged with reckless driving while intoxicated, could not convince the secretary of his sobriety and was deprived of his license indefinitely.
 The case of Clarence E. Mathews of Cos Cob, who appeared for reckless driving, was also continued until next week to allow of further evidence.

HILL WILL HAVE HANDS FULL TO
 GET NOMINATION
Republicans Believe He's Uncertain of Being Candi
 date For House.

Republicans of this city will hold their primaries here on Aug. "A. The delegates chosen at that time will, Tn town and city convention, nominate delegates to the state convention, the Congressional and probate conven- t1ons. The Republican State Central committee at meeting in the Allyn House at Hartford yesterday decided on Sept. 5 and as the dates for the state convention, the place to be the Shubert theatre, College street, New Haven. United States Senator Frank B. Brandegee will be temporary chair man of the convention and it is proba- ble that William E. Seeley of this city will be the permanent chairman.
 Town Chairman J. Alex H. Robinson has not yet decided on the days for probably will be. called within three days after the primaries are held.
 Local Republicans who might be in a position to know today would not comment on the possibilities of local men as candidates. Some Republi- cans profess to believe that Mayor Wilson has excellent chances of slip ping in as a dark horse in the gu- bernatorial contest. All seem certain that he will be renominated lieuten- ant-governor if he cares for the office.
 None credit the rumor that Con- gressman B. J. Hill has chance for the nomination as United States Sena- tor if George P. Mclean is to retire at the end of his term. It was said by prominent Republicans here today that MT. Hill will have his hands full procuring a renomination for Con- gress and will not be considered for the Senatorial toga.
 Paul L. Miller will be renominated without opposition as judge of the probate district of Bridgeport.
 The Republicans probably will nominate two new candidates for the lower house of the legislature. James P. Kelly, representative last year, is now assistant city clerk. B. Earle Garlick, now with the Tenth Militia Field Artillery at Tobyhanna, Pa, is assistant prosecutor of the city court and will not seek a renomination, it is said.
 The three Republicans who were in the State Senate last year will be re- nominated as the cards lie now. They are Frederic A. Bartlett for the 21st district; John M. O'Connell for the 22nd district, and William H. Com1ey, Jr., for the 23rd district. Senators Bartlett and Comley, t is said, do not care to serve again but the machine wants them. Senator Bartlett is now judge of the city court while Senator Comley is the city attorney.
 Local Republicans expect that Gov. Marcus ,Holcomb, when he. returns from his vacation in the Maine weeds, will call a special session of the Gen. eral Assembly to pass special enab- ling act to allow the National Guards men now on the border or in the ser vice to vote at the presidential cleo tiOn.
