War

Swansea, Wales, Sept. 26.-The Welsh
tinplate trade, which the late Joseph
Chamberlain once described as decay
ing industry, and which received Sc
we're setback by the Mckinley tariff in
1891, is enjoying a prosperity which only
the necessary war restrictions are cur
failing Prices have more than trebled
during the war, despite the shortage of
labor and restriction of supplies of steel
bars, and practically every firm is pay
ing or will pay excess profits.
Before the war the basic price of tin
plates was - shillings and sixpence per
box, now as much as 80 shillings is being
obtained for unrestricted" plates, but
these rates will cease with the introduc-
ton Of the government price of 80 shill-
ngs.

4 GREAT FLEET
FACING STARVATION, NORSK
COUNTRY OFFERS TO BARTER
MILLION TONS OF SHIPPING
FOR FOOD.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington, Aug, 2-Norway,
facing starvation if the United States
cuts off exports of food. is ready TO
release a million tons of her shipping
in return for the privilege of import
ing food principally from the United
States.
DR.. Fridtjof Nansen, head Of the
Norwegian mission to the United
States, declared here today unreserv-
edly that Norway faced privation if
the United States enforced an export
embargo against her.
In order to get foodstuffs for them
selves and keep their maritime flag
afloat, DR. Nansen said, they were
willing to barter ships for food.
Norway, before the war, had three
million tons of shipping; the Germans
have destroyed 100000. Norway
needs 100000 for her own wants
and is willing to devote the remainder
to TIE carrying needs Of other coun-
tries,
DR.. Nansen said that Norway would
give a guarantee that none of the i'm
ported foodstuffs would be sent to
Germany
The Norwegian ships would be put
into the coastwise trade as soon as
congress revises the navigation laws
to permit foreign Fps to do so.

trolmau Mullen received three bullet
wounds. Chief Reynolds slayer was
captured by police officers and deteC-
tives and overpOWered as ne was try
ing to escape from the police Offices
The authorities expressed the opinion
that Patrolma.~ Mullen had become
suddenly insane. Several years ago,
it was stated, he was treated IN u
private sanitorium for mental
trouble.
Patrolman Mullen, who is a cousin
of Captain Mullen, had been on sick
leave for two weeks and according
to Captain Mullen, he entered the
superintendent's office this morning

DISCUSS PLAN
FOR CARNIVAL
MEETING OF BOARD DIRECTORS
BE HELD TO-DAY TO TALK
OVER PROSPECTS FOR NEXT
CELEBRATION.

A meeting Of the board of directors
of the carnival association will be
held this morning in the rooms of the
chamber of commerce to discuss plans
for the celebration next year, if it is
decided whether or not it will be
held.
The question of holding the cele
bration is one that has not been de
cided by the board, and it thought
best to settle the matter. so that if
the carnival is to be held, work can
be started to make it better and big
ger than ever before.
There is a considerable difference
of opinion on the subject, many Of
the members believing that it should
be dispensed with until the war IS
over. Others think that something
is needed to tighten the burdens of
war, to amuse. and to divert the
people, rather than that they be de-
pressed.
The contention Of the latter class
is that, now that New Orleans and
Mobile have decided against holding
the celebration, Pensacola could draw
the largest crowd in the history Of
the city.
