Stockholm, Sweden, Oct. 25.-Thir- ty families, numbering more than 100 persons, are being sheltered in the town hall, the old peoples home and other public buildings in Linnkoping because they could find no houses on October 1st, the autumn moving day in Sweden. While this is not a fair sam pie of conditions elsewhere in the kingdoms cities, the day has been what the press calls "a black October first" in many places, for the demand for rentable dwellings has greatly ex- ceeded the supply.
 The building trades were apparent ly the first to suffer from the war here as well as in the belligerent countries. Some new houses were erected but much fewer than in normal years. Then, to complicate the situation, Stockholm found itself harboring a great number of transient foreigners, the number being variously estimated at 50,000 to 60,000. The result has been a scarcity of houses which is ma king itself keen1y felt.
 An official list of empty houses, is- sued at stated intervals by the munich pal authorities, contains this month 151 dwellings, against 1,09S at this time last year.

The category of sins was discussed at Sacred Heart church last night during the mission held there by priests of the O. M. I. Rev. William Haley characterized saloons as lawful holes of sim where men drink draughts that stain their souls with the spots of Satan, lose their reason and lower themselves beneath the dig nifty of mankind.
 Rev: J. F. McDermott besought purity of lives for those he was ar dressing. He admonished them not to sully the, purity of woman. Other thoughts expressed were ingratitude to man and God, the birth of sin and its redemption.

Japs Close Only German Bank In
 Nippon Islands

Yokohama, Oct. 25.-The Yokoha- ma branch of the Deutsch-Asiatische Bank has been closed by order of the Japanese government and all it's busi- ness suspended. This shutting up of the only German Bank in Japan will seriously affect German prisoners of war whose deposits formed the largest part of the business. It is estimated that deposits of about 4,000. German prisoners are locked up until the of ficial ban on the institution is remov- ed which will probably not be until the closing of the war. The total de- posits by Germans are estimated to be 3,0OO,0 900 yen or about $1,5OO,OOO.
 Japanese papers which led a cam paign last spring for more vigorous measures against German residents and German institutions in Japan ex- press satisfaction over the closing of the bank.
