AUSTRIAN CURRENCY LOW.
Metal Reserve for Large Note Cir.

Swiss monetary experts, in dis
patches received here. call attention to
the desperate financial situation in
Austria. Recently DR.. Weckerle, presi-
dent OF the Hungarian cabinet, declared
at a public sitting Of parliament, that
the circulation of notes of the I'm
perial Bank had reached fifteen and a
half billion crowns in September and
is now probably seventeen billions The
metal reserve for this enormous cir
culation is only between $50 and 400
millions.
The Swiss experts declare that Aus
tria. consequently. is in a precarious
financial position. The Austrian crown
now is quoted at only SO in foreign
and has deprecated still more
in the interior of the empire. In this
situation. the Swiss experts say. Aus
tria would not be long in suing for a
separate peace were she not dominated

he says that American products IN
normal times are sold. not directly TO
Turkish distributors. but through
few firms in Hamburg and Bremen
which have branches In New York.
Sometimes the catalogues OF these
concerns show American articles on
one page and German limitations on
the other. with the advantages OF re-
duced price and quick delivery OF the
German goods conspicuously indicated.
Despite these conditions the American
products gained an important position
in Turkey before the war. solely on

quite so funny as the author himself,

what they are good for, what they
are thinking, and to be able on any
