SIGNAL SYSTEM
CHANGE IS MADE
ON PENNSYLVANIA
General Orders Issued
More Men Needed to Break
Freight Tie-up

General orders looking to the
change In the signal system have been
issued by the Pennsylvania and g. R.
& l. railroad companies. On the G. R.
G. l. at Franklin street, Fort Wayne,
the signals have been placed at the
near end of the east yard office so as
to accustom employees to the change.
At Richmond at the north side OF
the coal wharf trainmen and engine
men are given an opportunity to OBJ
serve the displays Of color signals.
The green will indicate clear, and the
yellow will indicate caution, red still
indicating danger or stop.
Enginemen and trainmen are ad-
yised to look out for the display mast
indicating the lights and flags which
has been erected in the park at Fort
Wayne east yards. The change In
color signalling will be put In force on
the PENNSYLVANIA and G. R. & I. next
week.
Inquiry at the freight offices this
morning elected the fact that busi-
ness on the east and west systems has
been heavy. Extra help has been put
on, and more men can be used at the
present moment The movements In
coal, iron, steel and grain have been
above the average and yardmasters
have been hard put to move the extra
freight and through freight trains.
While October always was above the
normal, the army cantonment equip
ments has necessitated a general
roundup Of all cars. Cars, however,
are coming in on the Richmond divis-
ion, and It was expected the embar-
goes at Alliance and Chicago would
be lifted in few days, allowing trans
fers to go on as usual.
A total of $4,000 has been sub
scribed for the Red Cross and Liberty
Loan bonds by trackmen and track
foremen on the Pennsylvania divis-
ions Among the subscribers are
many who have enlisted and are serv-
ing in the army and navy The gen.
eral order issued some time ago had
also born fruit on the divisions, and
arrangements made whereby en-
ployes might contribute on the install
ment plan were successful.

vision may be enlarged as plans are

BAKER REVIEWS
WAR SITUATION
WEEK JUST CLOSED WAS VERY

WAR SECRETARY.
,ny Associated rreas.,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S. "The
week just closed has been one very
favorable to the allied armies" says
the war departments official com
munique. reviewing military opera.
tions for the week ending Saturday.
THE success of the British often
sive in the region of Cambria and
the steady resistance of the Italians
in the face of the repeated attacks
OF the Austro-German forces are two
factors which may be considered as
correlative elements of one and the
same movement
1T is evident that the enemy took
the offensive in Italy hoping there
by to extricate himself from the in
creasingly difficult position in which
his forces find themselves in the
west. The German higher command
were apparently confident that, in
order to save Italy from invasion
such important cuntiDgents OF French
and British troops would be detached
from the western front as to render
any further allied offensive in this
theater impossible Though the
French and British have both dis
patched large contingents to Italy
this has in no way hampered thC
continuance of their offensive opera
tions II is the wastage OF the enem,
forces. the slow. yet relentless sap
ping OF his man power by continued
and sudden offensive thrusts. whicl
must eventually result in the soften

JAPAN ABSORBS
. EXPORT Of GOLD
NIPPON TOOK OVER s155,ooO.o 900
OF YELLOW METAL FROM
JAN. THROUGH SEPT.
tI,y Associated Press,

WASHINGTON, Nov 2S.-Details
of the countrys commerce for the
first nine months of the year, just
made public by the department of
commerce, show that the enormous
increase in gold exports was alb.
sorbed largely by Japan and Spain.
Japan took $155,467,726 in gold
from the United States from January
through September, as compared with
S93OO,630 in the same period of
1916, and was virtually the only one
of the allied countries to receive
precious metal from America in Sep
tember. Spain imported $99,SS7 400
for nine months, against $96O1520
in the same period of the preceding
year.
Mexico got $6712.279 in gold up
to September 80, as compared with
less than million dollars in the
corresponding period of 1916. Total
gold exports for the nine months
amounted to $S4S.96s,514 in 1917, as
compared with $94,4SO, 462 last year.

DISCUSS RAIL PROBLEM.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S-The rail
road problem was discussed at length
at yesterdays cabinet meeting. After
ward it was said that government
operation of railroads during the war
will be attempted only If 1t becomes
certain the roads themselves are un-
able to deal with difficulties that
confront them.
The general belief among admin
istration officials is that the pool
ing plan about to be inaugurated by
the roads should be given thorough
try-out and that If II fails the gov
ernment then should take a hand
There is some doubt, however, that
any pooling plan will work rs well
as it might so long as each road Is
compelled to concern itself with Its
individual profits.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2s.-Official
confirmation of the news from Lon
don that German staff officers are
in Petrograd acting as military ad
visers of the Lenine faction prob
ably will be followed promptly by
action on the part of the United
States and the allies definitely to
place the Bolshevlki regime in the
list OF Germanys allies.
If the Germans are there, all doubt
as to the purpose Of the Bolshevih
is removed, and the diplomats win
be obliged to withdraw to neutral
capital. Such a development un-
doubtedly would be followed by i'm.
mediate cancellation of all orders for
supplies for Russia, both in the
United States and Japan. Several
cargOes from the United States are
now on the way to Vladivostok, but
these can be diverted by wireless
orders, and it has been understood
that their delivery would be CON
tingent upon evidence that they
would not fall into unfriendly hands.
With Germans openly advising Len
inc and his followers, it is assumed
that efforts will be made to carry
Russia into the position of an ac
tive ally of the central powers. This
might produce a most serious situa-
ton by making available to Germany
the vast stores Of food, oil and cot
ton of Russia and even though the
Teutons found 1t impossible to CON
vert the discorganized country into
an active military ally, the million OF
more German, Austrian and Turkish
prisoners held in Russia would be
freed and turned over to the German
generals.
