HEAVY SELLING ON
 WALL STREET TODAY
International Crisis Throws Scare
 Into the Stock Market

New York, April 14, Wall St., 10:30 a. m.-Increased apprehension over the international crisis caused further heavy selling at today's opening of the stock market. There were declines of one to three points in Mexican Petroleum, American Smelling, Texas company, Crucible and Lackawanna Steels, the prominent motors and equipments, Mercantile Marine pre- ferred, Industrial Alcohol and the metals.
 Union Pacific and Erie were the only heavy rails, yielding a point or more. Aside from U. s. Steel, whose initial sale consisted of one lot of $3500 shares at half a point recession, early dealings were notably free from large individual offerings.

WHITE PLAGUE FOES MEET
Association for Study and Prevention
of Tuberculosis Is in Session
at Washington.

Washington, May 1.-THE fight
against tuberculosis is gradually be-
ing won, DR.. Charles j. Hatfield, execu-
tive secretary of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention Of
tuberculosis, told the delegates to the
twelfth annual meeting of the associa-
ton at the opening meeting here to-
day. The tuberculosis death rate in
the larger cities of the country shows
an average decline for the last ten
years of 20 per cent and in some cities
of more than 80 per cent. The agen-
cies in the antituberculosis fight now
number $500.
Announcement was made of a gift
of 100000 to the association by DR..
E. r. Baldwin, president of the body.
The gift is from the Metropolitan Life
Insurance company and is for the pur-
pose of demonstrating by communi-
ty experiment for three years that
tuberculosis can be controlled just the
same as any other infectious disease.
1t is planned to select town or city
of about 5000 inhabitants, probably in
New York or Massachusetts and to ap-
ply there all of the knowledge on the
treatment and prevention of tubercu-
losis available.

London, May S.-The British gov

The action of the British authorities
in ordering the release Of the seized

last American demand declined to ad-
nit any form of legality in the reasons
given by the foreign office for their
detention.

The Germans and Austrians we're
removed from the China by the Brit

to release these men and, being met
with declination, sent a second note.
The British authorities charged that
the 3S men were concerned in plot
for revolution in India.

In view of these circumstances the
German government frankly admits
that The assurance given to the Amer

statements, the undersigned avails
himself of this occasion to renew to
the ambassador the assurance of his

SPECIAL FISH DISHES
THREE RECIPES THAT ARE THE
BEST OF THE KIND.
Excellent Meal Where Biuefish or
MackereI Are Notwithstanding
That is Liked by Many-Fried
Scallops a Delicacy.

BroiIed BIuefsh or MackereI.-Blue-
fish and mackerel are never better
than when broiled. To do this as 1t
should be done, grease wire broiler.
If there is a coal fire, use one OF the
double sort. The same sort OF Droller
can be slipped on the regular gas
broiler and makes it far easier to nan
die fish in a gas stove. Grease the
fish, after it has been cleaned and
dried. Olive oil is good to grease DOM
fish and broiler, and first COOK the Skin
side-for about two minutes. TURN
and cook the side without skin until
the fish is DONE Loosen the fish from
the broiler carefully with sharp
knife, and slip it on to hot platter.
Spread with maitre d'hotel butter or
plain butter, and garnish with parsley
and pieces of lemon. If the fish is
broiled over a coal fire, turn it several
times to begin with, but do most OF the
cooking on the side without skin.
Fish Pudding-For this fish pud-
ding, two pounds of fresh haddock,
bass, or cod are required. Remove the
bones from the fish raw, and chop IL
fine. Add teaspoonful of salt, shake
or two of mace, tablespoonful or
flour, three of melted butter, beaten
egg and, gradually, a quart of very
rich milk. Beat all together thorough
1y and pour into buttered mold which
has been lined with fine crumbs. Stand
the mold in a pan Of hot water in the
oven and bake slowly for an hour.
Serve with a rich white sauce, to
which the yolk of one egg, beaten
with a teaspoonful of lemon juice, is
added just before taking from the IRE.
Fried ScaIIops.-Wash quart OF
scallops and drain them as dry as pos
sible. Then plunge them into boiling
water and boil until tender. Drain
again. Mix a few tablespoonful of
flour with salt and pepper. Wipe the
scallops as dry as possible, dip them
in the seasoned -four, then in beaten
egg and then in fine cracker crumbs,
and drop into hot, deep fat to brown.
When brown remove, drain for a min
ute on paper, and serve very hot with
crisp broiled bacon and tartar sauce.
Garnish with slices of lemon and tiny
springs of fresh parsley.

Parsnip Fritters.

Take three or four good-sized par
ships; boil until tender, mash and sea-
son with little butter pinch of salt
and a slight sprinkling of pepper.
Have ready plate with sifted flour
on it; drop tablespoon of the par
snip in flour and roll it about until
well coated and form into ball. When
you have sufficient number ready
drop them into boiling drippings or
lard as you would a doughnut; fry a
delicate brown and serve hot. Do not
put them in a covered dish, for that
would steam them and deprive them
of their crispness, which is their great
charm.

REBEL LEADER SHOT
THOMAS KENT EXECUTED FOR
ACTIVITY IN IRISH REVOLT.
George Bernard Shaw Condemns
Shooting of Prisoners-Hits
British Government.

Queenstown, May lit was off,
cially announced here that Thomas
Kent, another of the Irish rebel lead
ers, has been shot.
London, May 11.-George Bernard
Shaw, discussing the executions Of
the Sim Feiners in an open letter,
says:
my view is that the men who were
shot in cold blood after their capture
or surrender were prisoners of war,
and it was therefore entirely incor-
rect to slaughter them. The relation
of Ireland to Dublin castle is, in this
respect, precisely the same as the
GUM toward the kaiser, or of the
United States to Great Britain.
Until Dublin castle is superseded
by a national parliament and Ireland
is voluntarily incorporated with the
British empire, like Canada, Australia,
or South Africa, an Irishman resort
ing to arms to achieve the independ-
ence of his country is doing only what
Englishmen will do if invaded and
conquered by the Germans.
Such an Irishman is as much in
order morally in accepting assistance
from the Germans as England is in
accepting the assistance of Russia in
a struggle with Germany. The fact
that he knows that his enemies will
not respect his rights if they catch
him, and that he must fight with a
rope around his neck, adds in some
measure to his glory in the eyes of
disinterested admirers of patriotism
throughout the world
1.-The slaughter of man in this po-
sition makes him martyr and a he
70. The shot Irishmen will now take
their places beside Emmett and the
Manchester martyrs in Ireland and
beside the heroes in Poland, Serbia,
and Belgium in Europe. Nothing in
heaven or earth can prevent it.
Il am not a Sim Feiner. | have
always insisted it was the duty OF
Ireland to throw herself with all her
force against the Germans and Aus
trians. But l remain an Irishman,
and resent any imputation that l can
regard as traitor any Irishman TAX

against British government"

PatchouIi for Moth Prevention.


The fragrant dried roots OF the
patchouli, reports Special Agent Gar
rard Harris, are held in great esteem
in Porto Rico, and it is the general be-
lief in the island that when placed
among clothing and in closets they are
a sure preventive of moths. IN the
earlier days of the century the per-
fume of patchouli was in great favor.
1t Is believed that, If the properties
of patchouli were more generally
known, there would be a demand for
it in the United States in preference
to moth balls 1t should have as much
vogue as lavender for putting between
sheets and placing among garments;
and if it were manufactured or
shredded into a finer substance AID
sold in small bags, it would be de-
cided novelty that undoubtedly would
prove popular. Great quantities OF it
grow wild in Porto Rico, and a demand
for it from the United States would
afford employment to many OF the poor
country people. In Porto Rico natives
bring the patchouli to town and sell 1t
in small bundles that retail at two to
five cents.
