TELLS OWN STORY
 OF EUROPEAN WAR
Dr. James Faulkner Gives Wentworth Club Graphic Account of Ex-
 per1ences in France.

Dr. James F. Fulkner gave an in- teresting talk at the Wentworth club smoker last evening. Dr. Faulkner, a Harvard graduate, saw active ser vice during the present war at a French base hospital and his talk on the war was from personal know ledge and experience. The physician stated that, of all the implements of war with which he came in contact with as an army surgeon, gas bombs were the worst. He explained that they can be hurled 8 distance of several miles and when each bomb explodes the gases liberated is sufficiently strong to blind every human being within radius of fifty yards.
 This blindness, the doctor ex- plained, is very painful to the victim and continues for about twelve days without relief Gradually the blind ness wears off. Another thing which causes the soldiers great suffering, the doctor said. is what is known as trench feet" The soldiers, com pelled to remain in the trenches weeks at time. contract the ailment from having to stand, sometimes knee deep, in poois of water. The treatment given IS to bath the feet and limbs in some preparation of oil
 The doctor said that every soldier in France is equipped with two iden- tificaticn tags. He wears one on each arm so that in case one arm is shot off in action the nurses and sur- eeons will still be able to identify him.
 During the evening Urban Calla- han and John Riley rendered vocal solos and John Crean gave piano se- 1ectiOns

Henry CLeu' s , Weekly Letter
(Special to the Herald.)

Especial to the Hera1d)
 The latest German submarine note caused a severe break on the stock Exchange and inflicted a violent shock on all the commodity markets most affected by war. Subsequently there was a sharp recovery in prices, but the tone was unsettled and spirit of apathy prevailed pending fresh developments in the internation- al situation. The relations between Germany and the United States are more critical now than at any time since war began, and what the out come will be is beyond safe prediction. It threatens to draw other neutral na- tions into the whirlpool, including the United States; it certainly proves that Germany is driven to desperation, which in all probability will hasten the end of the war. How Germany is going to benefit by the multiplying of her enemies and losing the friendly in- terposition of the United States can not be seen. Suffice it to say that with such weighty uncertainties con- fronting the world all bushes en- agreements will have to be made with even greater caution than before. All Europe is seething with unspeakable passion and bitterness, bent on wreak- ing it's destructive forces to the utter most What will happen between now and the end of the war is beyond human foresight.
 Home trade, apart from war influ- ences, is in satisfactory condition. In January the new charters for com- panies of $1,00O,0Oe and over aggre- gated 244,000,000, compared with $270, 0,000,000 a year ago, when the to- tai was abnormally increased by tha inclusion of two big concerns having a combined capital of $10O,O0O,0O0 These new interpretations reflect the large profits of last year and the re- vival of enterprise. General busine ess is sound and is usually conducted on conservative lines; credits are not overexpanded, money is easy, collec- tions are good, labor is we'll employed, the steel industry continues active and the outlook for 1917 is hopeful de- spite the probable early loss of war orders. The agricultural classes are exceedingly prosperous; probably more so than any other farmers in the world, and there is every reason
New Britain herald., 1917-02-03

to expect that they will enjoy an- other profita ble year. Business Will naturally be affected should we De drawn into the European struggle, put this will be felt chiefly in the east, which naturally has closer relations with Europe than the west, although the latter cannot escape the reflex ac- ton.
 Of course war orders vii cease when peace comes if not before. Our ex- ports during the fiscal year ending June, 1914, were $2,33O, 100000, com- pared with $4,272, 2,00O,000 in the same period of 1916. Of this increase, amounting to $1,942, 100000, consid- erable was due to imitation; much to war orders, and not little to in- creased shipments to other countries which had lost their usual source of supplies. There was an increase in exports of. over $9O,OOO,00O in horses and mules, which will probably not be majhtained. In sugar there was over $75, 5,OO0,0OO, in brass goods near ly $16O,0OO,000, in explosives over s45O,OO0,000, and in breadstuffs, 290,O00,000 not to speak of many other important gains that cannot continue. If there were no compen- sations for the disappearance of these gains, the result would indeed be alarming, but it is quite evident there will be marked recovery in direc- tions now suffering by war Our cot ton exports for example, which fell from $510, 100000 to $374,000,0OO, should certainly show a big recovery. For our farm products, there will also be a heavy foreign demand at good prices, although release of Russian wheat Supplies will be. g. factor ot importance. The proba bility is that there will be shortage of food 1n Europe for at least one if not two years. The property loss in Europe resulting from the war has been cs- timated by competent authorities at about $6,0OO, 100000. This huge fig ure covers only buildings, machinery roads, bridges, etc., in the war zone. Tn addition, 1t must be remembered that outside of the war zone industrial plants have been run at high pres- sure for months with little chance for repairs. and European and British railroads and steamships will require extensive overhauling. Consequently for a long period ahead, Europe will be strenuously occupied with -econ- struction, so that Great Britain and ourselves will be the only nations able to supply the wants of other parts of the world. Our manufacturers can. therefore, confidently calculate upon receiving a liberal share of foreign or

STOCKS GO UP ON
 NEWS OF BREAK
Sales Exceed Million Shares Dur
 ing Short Session

Wall Street-Today's short session will go down in history as one Of the most memorable in the annals of the stock exchange. Announcement of the break came at the end of the first half hour, the market then falling into an even course, evidently in an- ticipation of the momentous develop ments. The first flash from Washing ton resulted in moderate declines. These gained headway on accelerated operations, rails dropping 1 to points with greater losses in industrials and specialties. In the last half hour a broad and general buying movement under the lead of United States Steel turned many previous losses to net gains. Steel rose to 104 1-2, a gain of four points, with two to six points in war issues, Utah copper and ship pings and three points in Bethlehem steel. The closing was extremely fev- erish and strong as to important stocks.
 Sales exceeded 100000 shares. Bonds were irregular.
