tribute to Liberty Loan,

:, John Poole, chairman of the local
liberty loan committee, announced
last night that over $1,000 resideits Of
i. this city contributed a total of more
than eighteen and one-third millions
= 70 the great patriotic fund. He said
that the committee is now awaiting
reports from the various local banks
relative to the exact amount Of small
subscriptions. These reports are ex-
pected In some time tomorrow.
Liberty loan returns to the Secretary
OF the Treasury are proving to be
slower than the officials expected. Up
70 O'Clock last night, no figures had
been received in addition to the four
cities, Philadelphia, Cleveland, st.
Louis and Chicago. which were report
ed Monday.
Many errors In the form OF applica-
uon Tor bonds, as well as the routine
OF the banks in tabulating returns are
given as the cause for delay in total
