Commercial Review.

NEW YORK, May 1S.-Dun's re- view tomorrow will say:
 Regular business holds up remarka- bly well considering it's many hinder ances, with retail trade in some sec- tions responding to improved weath- CT. and grain crop prospects are more promising. Yet the period of low temperatures was .too prolonged to make best results in spring distribu . tion possible. and he accumulations of merchandise neglect 10 some ex- tent the influence of the extreme prices. While there i.s still full em- pjloyment of labor and wage ad- vancas have continued, the tendency toward economy among consumers is spreading. The lessened buying Of necessities has not yet lowered costs perceptibly, and in many primary channels the large expenditures for military supplies act as sustaining factor With strikes of minor inn portance jn certain branches and more skilled hands needed than are available, maintenance of manufac- turing outputs is in some cases i'm practicable, and operations' nearly everywhere continued hindered by the difficulty in moving materials and products

MAN ON MOTORCYCLE
RACES RUNAWA HORSE

People in front OF the Public Build
ing at 1890 o'clock today witnessed
a thrilling race between runaway
horse. attached TO a wagon OF the
Ideal Baking Company. and a man on
a motorcycle who was trying TO stop
the horse.
The first seen of the race was when
horse and motorcycle came tearing
along King street from tho south.
The horse was on dead gallop, run
ming from side TO side OF the street
so that the motorcyclist could not
grab the reins. Just IN front OF the
Court House end Of the Public Build
ing, the cycllst made a grab for the
horse but as he did SO the horse and
wagon lurched 20 the west and Il was
only by the most dexterous handling
OF his machine that the cyclist cs
capped being knocked TO the street. Tit
plucky cyclist recovered his balanc'
and continued tho neck and neck ras
with the wildly dashing anim9l unit
both disappeared down the grade o.
King street
For the length OF the Public Build
ing the race was a beauty" Will
spectators held their breath in fea
that the horse IN one OF its suddeI
lurches. would topple the speeding
motorcyclist from his machine The
horse was subsequently stopped.

means 10 do their bit according to
the respective ability.
Now another call has come. We
have asked for time and money Now
TO hold truly our place betting our
State. we call 10 the manhood OF our
commonwealth.
Delaware today has two incom-
plete battalions for military duty. IN
every war we have so responded that
the State has offered for service a
regiment. a complete unit. The record
OF this State in times Of war is no
idle boast Now TO be worthy descen-
dants OF those who gave us this heri.
tage, It behooves us that we again
oner ourselves TO this world strife.
Sons Of Delaware dare not fail In y
fight for national life. as understood
in America, Delaware rightfully be-
longs al the front. Judging from the
history and my experience. my con-
fldence Is sadly misplaced II she Is
satisfied with less.
Realizing this and responding to a
Statewide expression Of opinion, ] went
10 Washington and asked that Delaware
be given recognition such as she would
be permitted to raise a regiment This
WAS granted. With confidence IN the
manhood Of this State, l pledged such
support
1T is with sadness, yet with a de-
termined confidence, I make the appeal
Men of Delaware. we have responded i'm
tho demands for time and money. Let
not Delaware fail 20 do her full bit.
"In the call for men by the selec-
tive draft. you have signed up. | ask
that you maintain the Delaware unit
by enlls;ing in your home regiment
BY so doing you will be among friends,
better cared for and, further you will
uphold our record AS 7 have said
before. we are at war. not by choice,
not by excitement. not by subtle plans.
We are az war, not for conquest, not
for gain. not for display Of force.
We are al war that this idea OF ma
tional life Of ours shall live. In such
war. for such a cause. Delaware
must respond Delaware will re-
spond."
