ReAexes Of War

In consequence of the great shortage
in the supply Of coal on account OF
the war. great impetus will be given IA
the coal-mining industry in Chill, not
only by Gillian capital but also by
Argentine, says the South American
Journal" It has been reported that
the Argentine Government has bought
a cargo Of Gillian coal for its navy,
and that if the result of its trial should
prove satisfactory large orders will
follow. II appears that coal is being
sold at about 500 per ton at Buenos
Ayres. CHILEAN coal is considerably
cheaper.
1t is stated via neutral sources that
there are now more than 100000 pris-
oners of war in employment in Ger
many. Apart from prisoners, the off,
cial sick insurance returns show that on
March / there were on the registers 81
973,457 working women and 1892 ,625
working men, so that the women out
numbered the men by over 10000.
Nevertheless the labor market returns
show that for every 100 vacancies there
are still l12 women applicants, as COM
pared with 81 men.

The stock market moved sluggish
ly most Of the week and left off with
an irregular price range, as many
issues closing down as up. Steel
shares as a rule did better, with
this group helped by the action Of
the United States Steel Corporation
directors in announcing their inten-
ton of declaring another 3 per cent
extra on the common stock at the
July meeting. Renewal of interest
in railway shares, which have not
done much of late, was an interest
ing development. Activity in this
department expanded to a marked
degree on intimations that ma
terial rate increases will be granted
the carriers by the Commerce Com
mission. An early decision is ex-
pected in Wall Street, possibly be-
fore the first Of next month. Taking
tie stock market Is q whole, the
movement of prices in the next week
or so will be watched with much
interest in speculative quarters. The
action of stocks should answer the
question Of whether or not the bull
campaign begun a month ago is to
progress further. Certainly the
momentum Of the rise has slackened
greatly in the last week, whether
from the competition of the Liberty
Loan or just plain apathy on the
part of the speculative public. At
any rate, dealings have continued
largely professional and reactions
have followed advances so frequent
ly that the movement has been one of
backing and filling without any
definite trend.

Only in two places was the shift
ing Of funds Incidental to the war
loan reflected to any marked degree.
On the Stock Exchange call money
rose to a per cent level, equalling
the high record of the year. At the
Federal Reserve Bank rediscounts Of
member banks in this district rose
S112,000,000 to above 100000,
the largest since the inauguration
of the system. In the weekly Clear
ing House statement loans increased
but S24,00O,000 and total reserves
decreased only S18,000,000, with
surplus reserves down to $54 ,051 900.
IL is quite evident that the Federal
Reserve system is working hand in
hand with the Treasury Department
and the member banks in order to
effect the large transactions now
under way and yet to be consummated
with the least possible disturbance
to the financial markets In general.

was significant that the lowest price

Monday, June Is, 1917

In many respects last week was
one of the most important the pres
ent Wall Street generation has eX-
rerienced. The successful closing of
the subscription lists to the greatest
loan the country has ever floated-
the largest initial operation that
any of the belligerents have under
taken-was epoch marking in its
significance. For one thing, it served
rotice on the common enemies Of the
Allied powers that the people of the
United States were ready to back
the government with the funds
necessary to carry the struggle to
a finish. Moreover, it was another
earnest display of our good inten-
tons and good will to our allies.
The response Of the country was
gratifying not so much because of
the oversubscription, but because of
the army of individual subscribers,
small and large, that rallied to the
support of the government in the
first call. There was never any
doubt concerning the success of the
offering. The only thing in doubt
was the manner of the success.

OF course, the full effects of the
S2,OO0,O0O,000 loan flotation have not
yet been felt in the financial
markets. Weeks will pass before
the ultimate reflection of the heavy
shifting of banking funds will be
seen. Money that has been paid
in already and will be paid in later
as the instruments fall due will
temporarily be withdrawn from
general use. AS q national bank
officer said last weel;, huge volume
of funds has gone "into the air" In
time it will come down again, but
there is no certainty just where it
will fall, and in the mean time money
rates are certain to remain firm.
This banker does not look for much
relief in the local situation until
early August. In this connection
the remarks Of Mr.. George NJ.
Reynolds, the Chicago banker, are
interesting. 1t is his belief that
high interest rates at this centre
will in time attract funds from the
interior, so that Eastern banks feel
comfortable over the outlook. 1t is
generally believed that business con-
ditions will continue favorable.

SIX SHIPS SINK UNDER
 SAILOR; STICKS TO SEA

NEW YORK, May 25.-Stewart Springer was eighteen years old when he sailed from here on Aug. 6, 1914. He has returned an old man, broken
 in health and with shattered nerves. Few lads of twonty-and few grizzled veterans of the sea, for that matter can boast or bewail the experiences thru which ne has passed since his last visit.
 Spring is cook of the British freigh- ter Pearlmoor, now docked at Mon- ltague street, Brooklyn. Back in Car diff, Wales, he has wife.
 The ship on which he last left New York was captured and sunk by the Karlsruhe. After forty-eight days aboard the raider he was landed with other prisoners at Tenerffe. His next adventure came on May 1, 1915. He was aboard French bark bound for England when, off the Scilly isles. he witnessed the sinking of the American tanker Gulfght by submarine.
 On July 22 following. he was a member of the crew of the British freighter Aidenwing, which struck a mine in the Bay of Biscay and went down. The next month he was on French freighter. again in the Bay of Biscay, when she was torpedoed. Shortly before Christmas, 1915 tSpringer had shipped on the Norwe-
 gian freighter Frankstream, She was torpedoed in the English Channel. A few weeks later found him a member
 of the crewSor British transport at the Dardanelles dtring the evacus- ltion. The transport was torpedoad, and the captain was compelled to beach the vessel under fire from the Turkish positions. Two machine bull lets struck Springer in the knee.
 His last experience was aboard transport in the North sea at night. This time the boat struck mine.

FIGHT DUEL TO DEATH
 OVER GIRL IN HOTEL

ERIE, Pa, May 25.-Two men, one armed with a razor and the other with a butcher knife, fought a duel to the death in the basement of the Colonial Hotel, rooming house on Ninth street One is dead and the other dying in Mamot Hospital.
 The fight started over a girl em- ployed at the hotel. Poe Haley. who was killed in the duel, came home from work and accusel William Burke of trifiing with the affections of the girl, whose name the police refused to divulge, then drew rag or, 1t is alleged and slashed Burke several times across the face.
 Burke managed to get hold of a long butcher knife lying on nearby table and plunged it into Haley's hack, The knife broke at the hilt, the 9-inch blade remaining in Haley's body.
 In his dying agony Haley slashed Burke across the wrist, almost sev- cring his right hand. Haley came here from Brighton, Mass, and was 3S years of age. Burke is a native of Scranton and is 40.

But we never cruelty desert faith full friend. For a couple of times after the white spot appears we try to tie 1t farther up or low down, usually with pathetically intellectual results. And then we pasture it back somewhere on the rack with the bow ties that are not to our taste any more and the selec- tiOns made by worthy aunt at a re- dnction sale and let it enjoy quiet old age.

LEARN TO SAVE.
Acquire the Habit of Spending Lsss
 Than You Earn.

Americans are not as thrifty as the people of many other nations. Say lngs bank statistics show this. Our money comes too easily. even in nor nal times. We feed the garbage pails too well. We ignore the little short cuts of economy. We forget the con- tng rainy day in our enjoyment of the present fair day.
 And If savings bank reports are not enough, turn to the figures of the actu- ries. See how few men, for instance, reach the period of natural retirement with enough of an estate accumulated to keep them through the. remaining years of their lives See how many are compelled to toll for daily pit tance beyond the time when they should have the privilege of retiring to ease on the income of their savings ur are left stranded because unable to work.
 All industry is built on the savings of those who at some time have learn- rd the wisdom of putting aside some uI tbelI no oh b'eSs
 nent. Abolition of thrift would mean the abolition of organized business It would hardly be an exaggeratiOn to say it would mean the abolition of civ ilization itself.
 Saye-save little. Get the babit of spending less than your Income. Make some banker your friend. Have a stake in the community. Stretch the pay envelope a little farther than merely to the next pay day. Buy a home. Don't float; anchor!
 Trite words. these. Certainly. But it is astonishing how many people there are in the United States who have never taken them to beart.- Cleveland Plain Dealer

As the British embargo excludes

should re-organize their system Of

In hgurative sense. Great Britain

Germany is being strangled because

U. 5. DESTROYER
COLLDES WITH
BRITISH ship
Towed to. Port, Repaired
and Back in Service
No Men Hurt.

Washington. Oct. s.-An American
destroyer in British waters recently
was in collision with a British naval
vessel which, after taking off the
American crew, towed the disabled
destroyer safely to port.
In announcing the collision today
the navy department said no one was
injured aboard the American de-
stroyer and that the vessel since had
been repaired and restored to active
duty. 5
An official inquiry developed that
the collision was unavoidable, the
vessels having come together during
a heavy rain storm. No blame was
placed on either the American or the
British vessels.
