cious fruit Il more widely dispersed
through the tropics and subtropics.
and more generally cultivated, than
any other species Of the genus. 1t Is
native to the West Indies and tropical
America. and is distinctly tropical; It
does not thrive under subtropic con
ditions. However, 1t is common in
many OF the older Hawaiian gardens,
not only in Honolulu, but also on the
other Islands Of the group.
The tree Is fifteen to twenty feet
high. with irregularly spreading
branchlets and twigs. In some regions
1t Is deciduous, Tut in Hawaii all the
species are evergreen. The leaves are
thin, ovate oblong, often asymmetri-
cal; slightly hairy on both sides; pale
green, and infinitely punctate. Like
the other species, the leaves are NAL
odorous when bruised. The flowers
are greenish, fragrant, about an inch
long, and closely resemble those Of
reticulata. They occur in clusters OF
one to three. opposite the leaves, oc
slender pedicels. The sepals are
small; the exterior petals greenish
white inside, with a purple blotch at
the base; tie inner petals inconspicu-

The fruit is three or four inches in
diameter; spheroid or heart-shaped.

black in spots when handled. The
flesh is creamy.white, sweet, custard-

very slight trace Of fiber. There are

markets in Honolulu, although the
tree is by no means uncommon.
In conclusion mention may be made
Of two very fine, but little known an
nonaceous fruits, that should become
known to fruit-growers in Hawaii and
other tropical portions of. the United
States. Rollinia orthopetala A. D. c.,
the biriba, and r. emarginata Schlecht,
the mirim, both Of Paraguay, Brazil
and Argentine, are trees bearing very
delicious large fruits. Those Of the
biriba attain a diameter Of six or
eight inches, and have been proneunc-
ed to be the finest annonaceous fruit
OF tropical America. They are prac-
tically unknown in North American
markets.
As progress is made in our knowl,

Saved, 8 Missing.

The shipping firm Of George Lucken-

Building. received cablegram from
their French agents yesterday that the
steamship Lewis Luckenbarh had been
sunk by a German submarine of the
coast OF France. The cable said that
boats carrying forty-seven members Of
the crew OF fifty-six men had landed.
presumably at Havre. to which port the
vessel was bound with a general cargo.
but that one boat with nine men had
not yet been heard from.
Ofiicials OF the steamship company
said last night that the cable gave only
meagre details OF the sinking and that
they expect to receive another message
to-day. Until a second message has
reached here stating that the missing
boat has been definitely known to be
lost the company will not make public
the names Of the seamen who have not
yet landed. The reason for this is that
the families OF the missing men live in
New York.
The Lewis Luckenhach was a steel

constructed at Camden. " j., in 1908

T0HALT DECLINE
OF BOND VALUES
Bank Examiners Directed
Not to Mark Down High
Grade Issues.
WILL HELP INVESTORS
Comptroller Seeks to Restore
Normal Situation in the
Market.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Treasury Of
ficials. concerned over the downward
tendency of the bond market as an out
growth Of Liberty Loan financing. have
determined to take steps to check the
shrinkage in gilt edge bond values so
far as consistent with Governmental ac-
tion and sound financing.
To this end tho Comptroller Of the
Currency tonight issued a statement
announcing that he had instructed all
national bank examiners that they need
not require national banks holding high
grade bonds of unqucstioned intrinsic
value and merit to charge them down to
present abnormal figures.
This action, II Is believed. will tend
to prevent undue tightening OF the
money market with the further decline
OF bonds. a process which IL continued
for considerable period Of time might
lead to heavy losses by the investors in
such securities.
Similar action was taken by the
Comptroller at the outbreak Of the Eu-
ropean war, when security values
dropped precipitately to low, records.
For months past virtually all securi-
ties have been steadily diminishing in
quoted values. High grade bonds of un-
questioned value have shrunk until they
are at the present time almost as low in
many cases as they were when the New
York Stock Exchange was closed in the
early days of the European war.

without precedent. with this single ex-
ception. In the history of the issues in
volved
Liberty bond financing has resulted in
crowding the bargain counters with
these SECURITIES. Banks lending money
upon them as collateral have been con-
sistently compelled to reduce the
amounts which they could lend borrow
ers The Coinptroller's action. 1t ia
thought. win 20 far toward checking
this tendency. His statement follows in
part:
Since the commencement Of war he
tween this country ard Germany there
has been aeavy depreciation In the
quoted values AZ securities generally. in
Guiding those Of the very highest grade
which have heretofore found ready
market in competition with Government
issues This shrinkage or marking down
Of values is partly due to the efforts Of
investors to sell other high class Sc
curities for reinvestment in Government
bonds.
In View of all conditions the Conn
troller OF the Currency has instructed
national bank examiners that they need
not at this time require national banks
holding high grade bonds of unques-
TONED intrinsic value and merit to
charge such investments down TO pres
ent abnormal figures, but an Intelligent
and conservative discretion will be ex-
ercised As to the prices at which national
banks can safely and reasonably be per-
mitted to carry such high class secur-
ties and as to what proportion of the
depreciation should be charged of in
any six months period"

FUSION JOY AT

Total Of $4,000 Shows How
Interest of Independents
Has Been Aroused.

New York citys surprisingly large
registration. a total OF 6ss.sos. accord
ing to the fnsl and revised figures,
brought Joy yesterday to the fusion lead
ers and disappointment to the Tammany
chieftains. The Mitchell managers con-
tended that II indicates that the inde-
pendent voter. aroused to the Issues OF

The Democratic leaders were gloomy. b 1t
sought to dispel the air Of depression at
Democratic headquarters by the state
ment that ut shows that the full Demo-
cratic vote was registered"
II has been fact in every election
where there has been a Fusion ticket
arrayed against the Tammany ticket
that a large registration meant that the
Independent voter would play an all
deciding factor In the campaign. Tam
many's hope for years was for a small
registration. Whenever this condition
prevailed. It was pointed out last night.
It reflected at the polls a lack Of inter-
est on the part of the independent or So
called "silent vote
The Democratic leaders made no at
tempt to conceal their satisfaction dur
ing the first five days Of the registra-
tion. when the Indications were that the
final figures would not be much over
100000. They would have preferred a
total even under this figure. It was ad-
mtted. IT was recalled that in 1918.
when the Mayor received such a smash
ing plurality over Tammany. tho voters
were aroused as seldom before In a
municipal campaign. and In that year
the registration was 6S7.623.
When 1t Is considered that this years
registration Is far beyond that figure.
and that somewhere between $4,000 and
$4,000 voters Of New York city arc
absent in the national service and could
not register. but will vote, IL can readily
he seen that the total voting power, IL
fully exercised, would be around $50, 900
this November.
Political observers were unanimous
last night in agreeing that the unusually
large figures are against the success OF
the Tsmmany ticket They asserted
that 1t indicated two things very plainly.
One Is that the independent voter will
go to the polls and the other that tn.
increase also will help the Socialist
