Dear Capital:
We received the bundle of "Capi-
tails" last week and the joy they
brought cannot be expressed in
words They came one afternoon
was out. and returning home about
10 p. NJ. l was greeted by Miss s.
with the most beaming face seated in
the middle of the floor of our hut
with Capitals" strewn all about her
Needless to say our light was not ex-
tinguished until wee hours. despite
the rules to the contrary We are
now anxiously awaiting the next
installment
We have been extremely busy,
rushed. should say. but at this
writing, having somewhat of lull so
| am making good use of the time
catching up my correspondence.
We find our work more interesting
| every day and are more than glad
that we answered our call
| was so pleased to note the activity
of the Annapolis Red Cross Chapter
and the success with which it is meet
ing No one could respond to bet
ter cause. When our boys come over
they will realize more than ever the
drain on the treasury of that wonder
full organization.
Cigarettes and matches are in great
demand and quite scarce, especially
the matches. and there will be an
abundance of other things for their
comfort, such as tooth brushes and
paste, combs, bags of cretonne for
putting in their little trinkets while
they are in the hospital, for all their
clothes are taken away. Bags about
foot square with draw strings. the
brighter the color the better they like
them. Writing materials, ETC.
We are having abomniable weather,
rained for over a week, and it rained,
| never saw such downpours, and
quite cool also. We noticed in the
papers where you were having quite
a heat wave at the same time, and
how we did wish we could mix the
climate a little.
On our afternoon off recently we
were in nearby town and at the de-
pot, while waiting for our train
(Which never is on time), we met
some American doctors, just arrived
enroute to join the A. +. F. You can't
imagine how happy we were to talk
to some real Americans right from
home.
/ should love to tell you more OF
our everyday life, but most of every
thing worth saying is prohibited, so
| will say goodnight with best wishes
| for all.
Sincerely,
Nj w

New York July 19.-Business on the
stock exchange today dwipdled to- min

tended by further substantial deprecia-
ton fprices. Foreign events assumed
greater speculative Importance, latest
disturbances in Russia and the changes
in the British cabinet furnishing the
bears with new material.
The trend of the money market was
not calculated to inspire confidence in
local monetary conditions. Call loans
were again renewed at per cent. but
long time accommodations. though quot
ably easier. were less readily negotiat-
ed because of the increasing scarcity of
available funds.
Industrial shares owed much of their
further depression to the deadlock con-
corning the long deferred question OF
war prices and taxes. shippings were
at least moderately affected for relat-
ed reasons and conflicting dividend ru-
mors helped to restrain any bullish ac-
tivity in rails. St. Paul, however. max
