NEW YORK, Dec. 1i.-New York is
rolling. revelling. rollicking in wealth
This is 'never-before-in-hist

New York banks today held reserves
Of sSle.794. 200. and from every quar-
Ter of the globe money is pouring in
actual yellow gold by the millions, to

Wall street has become gambling
table onto which is being thrown
money from the earnings, winnings
and savings of Americans and money
from the Golfers of kings.
While the large majority of New
York's six millions are fighting the
universal desperate battle with the
high cost of living. on the surface it
appears that everybody has money to
spend. They are spending it for neces-
stiles and luxuries.
Forty or more blocks in Manhattan
are given over entirely to that ancient
trio. wine, women and song. War
bride dividends have given night time
on Broadway a new life. Men whose
business it is to take money from
spenders say they never were able to
take so much of 1t before.
Ancient Babylon could be set down
inside New YOrk's winter pleasure
grounds without being noticed: Old
Nebuchadnezzar wouldn't have rep
utation outside of his own block.
Cabarets have sprung up like mush-
rooms, and dance halls thrive as In
any new gold camp.
Business is three times as big as
ybe biggest we ever saw before this
season." said the manager Of the larg.
est cabaret in the city.
Hotels are crowded. theaters are
sold out. Crowds that the shop early
slogan do not account for all the de-
paYtment stores.
Warehouses are depleted Of stocks
and deliveries are far behind.
New York is spending Its money and
getting what it can for 1t.
But 1t keeps pouring In.
One of the reasons for the money

on Furnace Row. Farther down it

the water from the flats east of the
railway yards and became itself rag

spring to make public playground,

ON THE DEUTSCHLAND

Baltimore, Md, July PA COM
munion service was held tonight
aboard the interned North German
Lloyd steamer Necktar, lying along
side the submarine Deutschland, for
the captain and crew of the subma-
rine. The Rev. Otto Appitz, German
immigrant missionary, conducted the
service. In his prayer he asked that
the vessel and her crew may have a
safe voyage home.
The service was followed by ban
quet. The Necktar was brilliantly
lighted.
1t was learned that the Deutschland
was partially submerged at her slip
at $50 this evening. The water is
not deep enough for full submergence.

ACTION AGAINST
BLACK LIST EXPECTED

Washington, July 25.-Administra-
tion officials gave further evidence to-
day that they were preparing to take
vigorous actions to prevent injury to
American firms through Great Brit
aims PRONUNCIATION of a commercial
blacklist under the trading with the
enemy act. President Wilson told call
ers he was much concerned over the
possibilities of the British order, and
there were indications at the State
Department that some step might be
taken soon unless a reply was forth
coming to the informal inquiries on
the subject made by Ambassador Page
at London.
Already the department has accu-
mulated considerable information re-
garding the blacklist, sufficient, it
was said by one official tonight, to
warrant action if there was no prom
Use of an immediate explanation.
Information reaching the depart
ment indicates that the allied nations
are planning for united action along
the lines of the trading with the enc

development might greatly aggfavate

diplomatic negotiations on the sub
ject.

TROOPS WILL GO TO BORDER.

Nashville, Tenn, July 26.-Com-
plete assurance that the Tennessee
troops would be sent to the border
was given Governor Rye by Mayor
General Wood when the former sent
personal letter to the General re-
garding the movement of the troops.
The proposed encampment of the uni
form rank, Knights of Pythias, were
scheduled for Cumberland park the
latter part of August and the Gov
ernOr Inquired on behalf of the COM
mercial bodies of Nashville whether
the troops would be in camp at that
time or not.
Major General Wood was positive
that the troops would be moved as
soon as possible, but could not name
a specific date. Following is an ex-
tract from the letter of General Wood
dealing with the guards:
Movement of the Tennessee troops
to the border will be made just as
soon as they are fully equipped and
prepared. | cannot tell you when this
will be, but we are expediating it as
much as possible
1t is plainly evident to the authori-
ties at Camp Rye that the troops will
not leave until complete equipment is
furnished them.

PARADE BEFORE NEW COLONEL

Nashville, Tenn, July 25.-Coloncl
Henry S. Berry, of the First Tonnes
see, was honored today by a parade
of the entire Tennessee guard at
Camp Rye. Late in the afternoon
they passed in review before the new
ly elected colonel and previous to this
honors were given Major w. l.. Hass-
lock, who was chosen as Colonel Ber-
ry's successor for the second battalion
of the First Tennessee. The Nashville
infantrymen passed in review before
Major Hasslock and an enthusiastic
reception was given by the many
spectators at the camp to the two new
commanders.
The men were in light marching
order and their line of march was
similar to the other parades. The i'm
provment in their training is very
noticeable to those who have watched
the maneuvers of the troops since
they came to Camp Rye. They are
beginning to take on the appearance
of regulars more and more as the
process of whipping them in shape
continues. The long hikes taken daily
and the grueling drills are shown in
the demeanor of the men while both
off and on duty.
With the organization of the First
Tennessee regiment effected, the last
drawback to complete military eff
cheney at the camp has been done
away with and nothing lies in the way
of preparing for departure for the
border except the slow manner in
which material for the quartermas-
ter's department and equipment are
being received.

is nothing regarding it which they
wish to conceal Many complaints
when examined proved to arise from
badly directed letters, the irregular
sailing of neutral main boats and
other causes entirely outside the con
troll of his majesty's government, and
are often due to the action of enc
mics"

British Note to America.

London, July 24-The foreign Of
flee, in publishing today the text of
the note handed to the American am
bassador replying to certain Ameli-
can complaints against censorship of
mail, declared the specific complaints
do not support the general charge
against the efficiency of the British
censorship. 1t was stated, however,
that the reply was confined to allie
cations made in the recent American
note and that the formal answer to
the general arguments advanced by
the Washington government still was
under consideration by the entente
allied governments and would re-
ceive reply in due course.
The two principal cases referred
to in the present memorandum are
those of the Macniff Horticultural
company of New York, and the Stand
ard Underground Gable company, of
Pittsburg. The Macniff company COM
planned of the loss of perishable
goods owing to the detention by the
censor of shipping documents relat-
ing thereto. The British government
states that so soon as the matter was
brought to its attention it arranged
to have a special mail bag for ship
ping papers which would be inme-
diately censored SO that no delay
would occur.
In the case of the cable company
it is stated that "the government of
the United States appeared to in
sinuate" that the delay in the mail
of the cable company was directly
connected with the fact that a Brit
ish competitor had obtained a CON
tract for which that company had
been rendering"
His Majesty's government" the
note continues, "is astonished that
such an insinuation Should be made
especially as the complaint from the
cable company appears not to have
been adequately examined"
The memorandum goes on to show
in considerable detail that tenders
for the contracts referred to must
have passed between the United
States and Norway on a date prior to
that on which the censorship of Sean
dinavian mails begin.
After detailing other cases the note
continues:
The specific complaints do not sup
port the general charge against the
efficiency of the British censorship.
His Majestys government will always
be ready to explain in detail the
working of the censorship, as there
