WAR HAS NOT BROUGHT
 PROSPERITY TO HOLLAND Factories Will Have to be Closed Ow- ing to Lack of Raw Materials

Dordrecht. Netherlands April IT, Holland has not fattened on the war. It is true that a few businesses or persons, such as the farmers. have made enormous profits. Their profits were highest in the first eighteen months of the war. They declined to- wards the end of 1916. and will pre- sumably shrink further in 1917. albeit the agricultural population will still be prosperous Apart from the fisher ies, comparatively few other branches of industry have participated in the war profits.
 On the other hand. the number of persons who have suffered from the war conditions is much greater than those who have profited. Many have obtained an increase of wages or a war bonus, but this is not proportion ate to the increase in the price Of foodstuffs and other goods, Factories will have to be closed owing to lack of raw materials
 Jewellers and gold and silversmiths have reaped rich harvests, partly oW- ing to the fact that the Dutch farm CTS, and their womenfolk especially are fond of displaying their prosperity by wearing heavy ornaments.

SUBSCRIPTION FROM CARDIFF
 TO NEW BRITISH WAR LOAN
Average f5o Pounds for Every Man.
 Woman and Child in the City.

Cardiff, Wales. April 17.-Subscrip- tions from Cardiff to the new British War Loan amounted to more than so.- 00o. 900 pounds. an average of 150 pounds for every man, woman and child in the city. This remarta ble contribution is an indication of the golden age which the war has brought to Cardiff. In. no British city has such vast wealth been earned so easily and so quickly.
 At the outbreak of the war. Cardiff, had the largest export trade in the country. Freights began to increase. ships doubled, trebled, quardrupled in value Young business men, enter nrising. and daring, bought whole fleets on a speculative basis which would almost make New York curb broker hesitate. They reaped the re- ward of their daring.
 In one case a tramp steamer so old that it wa scarried on a company's books at a nominal valuation of one resold the next day for an even 1O0, 900 pounds. In another case a steamer bought in the midst of a voyage for 100000 pounds realized 10000 pounds for its owner by the time it reached his dock, and was promptly resold for another profit of 10000 pounds.
 Among the new millionaires of Car din are fourteen young men who be- earning not more than S10 a week. One of them had less than a hundred dollars in the bank when he bought his first ship. a week after the war began. collecting the money for his initial payment by borrowing small amounts from a large number of friends and acquaintances
 Two young bank clerks persuaded the manager of their bank co lend them 10000 pounds with which they purchased thirty-two options which netted them S500,000 in a month.
 It has not been the owners only who have prof1ted. First class dock lab crers. especially trimmers, have earn ed as high as 20 pounds a week. The miners, too. have earned big money. and the shopkeepers. especially the Jewellers and the department stores. have never known such prosperous timeA
 The day when the poor man could make huge speculative fortune in Cardiff now has passed, however The government restrictions on shipping have put a stop to the free and easy dealings of the first year of the war.
 Three-fourths of Cardiff's war-cre- ated wealth was piled up in the first y ear of the war. Nowadays, large proportion of its ships are under charter to the government at a mod crate rate, and no sales O. AAips may be made without government permis- sion.

MANAGER MORAN PROTESTS
 GAME WITH BOSTON
On a Decision Given by Umpire
 Bransfieid.

Boston, April 1.-The Philadelphia Nationals have protested Boston's twelve inning victory today, Manager Patrick Moran announced tonight. A decision by Umpire Bransfield. who declared Pitcher Lavender of the Philadelphia's out for running off the line between second and third bases. scored five runs, was the basis of the complaint.
 Lavender had started to cross the diamond from second apparently be- lieving he had been called out on g play at that base, but turned and reached third base before the ball was thrown to that position.
 Manager Moran said his protest was based on the ground that a runner cannot legally be retired for leaving the base line unless intending to avaid being tagged.
