As appears from the table. France,
Italy, Russia and Belgium were self
supporting. while the United Kingdom
drew its entire sugar supply from ex-
terror sources. The supply of the Unit
ed Kingdom came to the amount of
about 20 per cent from countries from
which it is now cut of by the war.
Ten per cent came from the East In
dies and 20 per cent from the United
States and the West Indies.
The prospective 1918 crop in France
has diminished to 100000 tons and
that OF Italy to 75.OOO tons. and they
are therefore short $4,000 tons. The
displacement of United Kingdom sup
plies amounts to 1.435.OOO tons; and
therefore. in total, these three allied
countries must import about 100000
tons in order to maintain their normal
consumption. OF this, 100000 tons
must come from new sources.

duces the tonnage available and drives

NEW YORK. July 24.-Stocks re sumed their downward course today on almost the smallest turnover of any full session thus far this summer. Total dealings barely amounted to 5s0. 900 shares.
 Traders again aligned themselves on the bear side. forcing prices to low est levels in the last hour, the only active period of the day.
 Rails Were moved to higher levels for time on the interstate commerce commission decision which favored the western and Pacific Coast carriers. but soon fell back with the general list.
 Rubles were the only foreign remit tances to show any pronounced change, repeating their recent low record of 21 on. the discouraging mill tary news from Russia. Rumors of an early resumption of gold imports from Canada lacked authoritative confr- nation.
 Dealings in the bond market. except for sporadic advances in minor rail way issues were altogether perfume tory with an irregular tone.

THOMPSON IN JAIL.

H. Carlson of Jerome is a visitor in Bisbee from his home and headquar- ters in the Verde country. He expects to leave today and return later in the week for a more extended stay. Ac- cording to Carlson, James F. Thomp- son, the "Wobbly" speaker and agita- tor who spoke in the city park on two occasions before the big drive, is now in jail in Prescott facing a federal charge. When his effects was searched some dynamite caps were found and many plans of various plants through out the country. Thompson went into Jerome to speak but ran into the "Wobbly" drive there and was taken out of the Verde district and landed in the Yavapai county jail.

NEW YORK, July 24.-Realizing by shorts and a moderate amount of buy ing on the reaction theory in the fore noon gave the market an appearance of strength, but a subsistence of the demand from this element found the market bandly wanting for sustaining buying power and the market later declined rather easily on a mod crate amount of liquidation. The taxa ton question in the late dealings came in for greater consideration owing to the publication of a Washington de- spatch which in substance intimated that an effort will be made to amend the war revenue bill for the purpose of obtaining a still larger revenue, probably one billion dollars more. This increases the belief that the i'm possible on excess profits will be aug mented and inasmuch as the bill in its present form which seems to be rath- CT far reaching the fear of an addition al burden is viewed with much more concern.
 It is therefore to be expected that if earning power is to be revised down ward to an appreciable extent that the prices of the various industrials now established. on the basis of present large earnings. will likewise be ad justed in a downward manner.

WERE THROUGH HERE.

Mrs. c. Enel and sister of San Luis Obispo, who are motoring across the country in a Ford, arrived in Bisbee last night and left this morning for Douglas on their eastern voyage. These are the two ladies who caused the Tucson police to throw a fit and order the ladies off the streets of that moral city because the aforesaid ladies wore trouserettes on the streets in plain sight of the blushing, bashful, moral policemen. The ladies created no commotion, not even passing com ment in Bisbee because ever since we have had woman suffrage we are pre- pared to withstand anything.

OF EQUITY IN STATE

Great Falls. Sept. &c. +. Lowrie
has resigned as president of the Mon
tana branch of the American Society
of Equity to assume new duties in con
nection with the national organization
work. His successor as head of the
Montana Equity union Is William NJ
Burlingame Of Nashua, president OF
the local society at Glasgow and one OF
the leading members of the organiza-
ton in the state.
There had been no general manager
of the Montana society since F.. A. BEN
net retired from that office several
months ago to give more attention to
the educational work of the society.
The duties had developed on the presi-
dent and recently when Mr.. Lowrie de-
termined to give more time to the ma :
tional field he decided to retire from
the presidency because of the fact that
his absence from the state would make
1t impracticable for him to efficiently
handle both duties. So upon his ad-
vice, Mr.. Burlingame was made the
general manager and later selected as
president as the two positions fit
snugly together.
