majority Of the residents of the city

women employed i'm the factories are
almost universally displeased with
the change. more for the reason,
probably. that they have TO arise an
hour earlier mornings TO go TO work.
Some advance the reason that they

earlier than usual, especially on
warm nights, because they are un-

was the intention OF the bankers to
operate their institutions under the
old time beginning Monday, but
their plan leaked out and those in

and shortly after noon yesterday, or
about an hour after il had been an

change the time. IL is believed that
II at least the proprietors of the
more important stores in the city
take advantage OF the opportunity TO
register their opinion on the sub

a return TO the old time.
So far as the factory men and
women are concerned il is we'll
known fact that they are practically
unanimously in favor of a return to
central time. IL is said that men
in some Of the larger shops OF the
city are preparing TO circulate petit

favoring the change. If that is
done the petitions will be presented

PAYS DIVIDENDS
five of Largest Concerns Show
Improvement of 1873 Per
Cent Over 1916.

LIVERPOOL, July 14.-Fiye of
the largest Liverpool shipping COM
panies whose annual reports have
just been issued show an aggregate
profit for 1916 of S35.O0O.O0O. or
100000 more than their average
for the three years before the war
This improvement of 1873 percent
moreover. is shown after provision
has been made for excess profits
tax, contingent liabilities and
amounts set aside for every posi-
bic or Imaginable contingency. The
reports do not give any accurate
clue TO the amounts thus set aside.
and from the way the accounts are
presented there is room for a diver
sity of opinion even as TO the
amount of money which the govern
ment will get in the form of the
various taxes 10 which war prosper
ity Is subjected. one estimate puts
the amount of extra taxes which the
five companies will pay at $70,O00,
600. Some experts believe this sum
as we'll below the mark. Two of the
companies show their profits after
deducting undisclosed amounts for
depreciation and so forth.
Do Not Give Figures.
The Leyland line does not men
ton the amount of profit earned: ii
merely says: After provision for all
taxation. depreciation and contin
gent liabilities and the payment of
deferred divioens, the directors pro-
pose a final dividend which will
bring the average rate mentioned in
last years report 10 12 percent y
This is a roundabout way of stating
that a dividend of SIS percent has
been paid TO the holders of the or
binary shares, seeing that for i
years there was no dividend and
"a IL percent was paid last year,
thus requiring SS percent to make
an average of u percent over the
10 years.
The White Star line has handed
out a stock bonus of 400 percent,
and is paying dividend of 20 per
cent, equivalent to 100 percent on
the old capitalization.
The Cunard line pays its custo-
mary 90 percent dividend on con-
siderably large capitalization, while
its allowance for depreciation is al
most three times the corresponding
figures of recent years.
The Leyland lines balance sheet
shows a new general purposes"
fund OF s1,25O.OOO, and renewals
and repairs" fund Of nearly $780,
600. It alEo shows the big cash and
LIQUID resources which is a char
acteristic feature of shipping COM
panies' accounts since the war.
Thus. the cOmpany's cash on Dec.
81. was s4.5OO.OOO. while its invest
ments. including war loan. totalled
$4,000. 900. or nearly 60 percent OF
its total assets.

lady's matrimonial venture. Because
the news was not made public until
this long after the wedding is no
doubt due to the fact that the
couple requested that the license be
withheld from publication for 80

the announcement was made last
Thursday both Mr.. Bless and his

the affair, but there has been no
denial since the publication of the

Mrs. MORNING even now refuses
