Ten KILLED BY BOMB
NINE MILWAUKEE POLICEMEN
AND WOMAN LOSE LIVES.
Criminals Responsible for Deaths
Believed to Be Members Of Band
Of Anarchists

Milwaukee, Nov. 27.--That the bomb
which killed ten persons, injured two
and wrecked the central police station
here Saturday night may have been
manufactured by experts in Chicago
Is the theory that now holds the atten.
ton Of the authorities who have the
investigation In charge.
This theory, the plan of offering Of
substantial rewards by the city and
state for the arrest Of the criminals
responsible for the explosion and the
detention Of half dozen Italians were
the outstanding developments In a
crime that has stirred the community
as 1t has not been aroused In half a
century.
In addition citizens have already
started pouring In subscriptions for
the families Of the police officers and
the woman who met death when the
bomb exploded.
The bomb was found In Rev. Gull
lianl:s church by Miss Maude Richter,
church organist. She sent an italian
boy, Tony Massone, with 1t to the Gen.
trail station and handed 1t to Station
Keeper Deckert. Tho station keeper
carried 1t into the squad room, where
detectives and police coming on or just
going Off duty were assembled. A no
ment later there was fash and a
roar. Buildings rocked for blocks
around. The smoke cleared. Where
detectives and the station keeper had
stood was mass of wreckage

THE DARDANELLES

There are a good many celebrated
patches of Wetness On this planet,
but none OF them have anything to
speak of on the Dardanelles.
When these waters-to use the
plural--frst broke into literature,
the Red Sea and the Mediterranean
were about The only of water which
had received prominent mention
The English Channel had never been
heard of, the North Sea was full of
worse monsters than torpedo boats
for all the world knew and even the
Atlantic Ocean had not yet gotten
into the press reports. Xerxes crossed
the Dardanelles $500 years ago on
bridge of boats, thanking his lucky
stars that there were no submarines
on the job and the first swimming
match in history occurred on this
strait when Leander swan the Hell
lespont and lodged four dogs and
nine armed retainers to spend an
evening with his lady-love.

Meeting waters between the Black
Sea and The Mediterranean and it
has played as prominent part in
politics as it has in literature. For
centuries it has kept Russia from
sailing it's warships around the Med
iterranean and from sitting in with
the other powers 1t has taken half
a dozen wars aid hundreds of thou
sands of lives to accomplish this,
and now the nations which expend-
ed the said lives are busy spending

Our Great Ally Possesses RecuPerative

After the War;
With Paris Boulevards echoing with
'vives'' for American troops our inter
est in the welfare of our ally vastly
increases, and the facts are not lack
ing to encourage the belief that she is
already on the road to recovery from
the blow of invasion by a ruthless en-
envy.

opments is the announcement that
one of the largest banking institutions

trade, the Guaranty Trust Company
of New York, has opened Paris
branch to handle the rapidly increas-
ing volume of French business.
This action may surprise many per-
sons who had thought Of France as

bowed under q calamitOus invasion.
The, bank, however, gives figures indi-
eating that France is not only meeting
f-r military and civilian problems with
a stout heart and never failing cour-
age, but is re-establishing her export
business with this country.
In 1914, the year Of the outbreak of
the War; imports from France TO this
country totaled Sal ,446,252. This TO-
tai was reduced to $77,159,74O in 1915,
but last year the value of French Inn
ports to the United States rose to $1O2,-
1000.
"a nation that can achieve such a
commercial recovery while her terri
tory is being ravished by the invader, "
says the Trust companys statement,
possesses recuperative powers which
justify the belief that she will emerge
from the present conflict prepared to
meet and solve trtumphantly the prob
lens which confront her."
The commercial and Industrial record
of France, following past wars, indi-
Gates that she should recover quickly
from the actual physical destruction
inflicted in the present conflict. The

three influences: first, Thoroughly
sound banking system, centralized In
one of the greatest banking institutions
of the world, the Bank Of France; sec
ond. the ingrained thrift and frugality
of the French people as a whole, to-
petler with a national economic vigor
not elsewhere surpassed; third, wise SUI
peryision, and patriotic cooperation by
the government with banking and bus1-
ness interests.
The government does it's part to war
rant and retain the confidence OF the
holders of its~securfties. One OF It's
wise policies is to impose new taxes to
defray the interest charges on new Sc
curtty issues. 1t began this practice
after the Franco-Prussian War, and is
today following the same rule i'll regard
to securities issued to finance the pres
ent conflict. This continuity of pur-
pose. doubtless, will prove reassuring
to all holders Of French government
securities.
The Franco-Prussian war Of 1870
1871 taught the French people the
meaning of thrift and economy. So
well did they learn this lesson, that
the whole sum Of the indemnity de-
manded by Germany, $1,OOO,OOO, 600,

| fines by it's own inhabitants and paid
off more than one year before the time
stipulated by the Germans.
The habit thus acquired has never
been forgotten by the French, and to-
day the aggregate number Of investors
purchasing the French war loans has
reached the amazing total of 100000

er country, in proportion to it's popu1a-
ton, can make so good showing.
France is particularly fortunate I'm
that her small investors prefer ''safe"

promise high returns. Government
Rentes, in France are perpetual, and
this characteristic seems to obtain for
these government bonds increasing IA
vor in the eyes of the French peo-
pie.
The points Of sympathy between
France and America are too many to
enumerate, but the spirit of liberty and
it's resultant democracy are, today as
always, the major ideals of both ma
lions. Seeking no victories but those

of Industrial activity that will be re-
CURED and that is in part already
planned, offer a peculiarly inviting
field to American capital and enter
prise. Tentative steps have already
been taken by representatives Of Amer
lean engineers and business men in this
work.
Aside from it's attractive business
aspect, the enlistment Of American
money and effort in the great task Of
reconstruction that will remain at the
end of the war will tend to cement still
more closely the ties that bind the two
great Republics together, and will en-
able Americans to discharge in part
the debt they owe to France for her
friendly interest in the welfare and
progress of the United States from
the beginning of it's life as a ma
ton.
In judging the Industrial status of
any nation, it's production and con-
sumption Of coal, iron, and steel and
the growth of its transportation sys-
TENS are highly significant factors.
In 1869, French industries consumed
Fl million tons Of coal, of which 1875
millions were taken from home mines.
In 1912, the consumption was 81 mil
lions, of which Al million tons were
taken from home mines.
In 1869, the French output Of cast
iron was 1,38O,o0O tons, and of steel.
: 100000 tons. In 1914, France pro-
duced 5,311 ,01O tons of cast iron and
1856, 900 tons of steel
