SENATOR CANNON
MISS |. CHAPEL
ARE MARRIED

At 2:30 this afternoon, at the resi-
dence of Mrs. Julia J. Currier, the
Hon. Richard L. Cannon, of Cincinnati,
Ohio, temporarily wintering in Tar
pom Springs, was married to Miss
Lula H. Chapel, of Batavia, N. Y,
who has been visiting at the home of
Mrs. Currier during the winter. T..
The marriage ceremony was per-
formed by the Rev. B. H. Davis, pas
tor of the Methodist Episcopal church
of Tarpon Springs. The ceremony
was very impressive and beautiful
affair and was witnessed by the imme-
diate relatives and friends of the fam
lily.
The wedding was quiet one and the
following were among those present:
Mrs. Julia J. Currier, Mrs. Brown,
Mrs. Moore, of Rochester, N. Y; Mrs.
Reed and Mrs. Charles Guelph, of
Brockport, N. Y; Mrs. Ada Fernald
and George Fernald; Mr.. and Mrs.
John M. Champlin, Mrs. Sarah AL
drich, Mr.. and Mrs. Leon Fernald, and
the Rev. B. F. Davis and wife.
The now Mrs. Cannon is lady of
much refinement and education, hav-
ing had much experience in colleges.

troller of the currency finds, the in
crease of $6,000,0OO,OOO in our bank
ing resources within the past sixteen
months is a billion dollars more than
the entire resources of the banks of
England and France combined, and is
double the combined resources of the
German Reichsbank and the Bank of
Italy. Our total banking resources are
$2,000,000,000 more than double the
aggregate resources of all the great
banks of issue in the world.
1t has been the German view that
victory in the great war would go to
the side with the strongest nerves.
But the test of nerves has been met. It
is now test of financial and economic
power. What it must mean to force
into the conflict against Germany a
nation of such demonstrated power
may yet impress the imperial govern
ment.

100000 TONS Of
SHIPPING IS SUNK
IN WEEKS TINE
WORLDS TONNAGE WOULD DIS
APPEAR IN TWO YEARS AT
THE PRESENT RATE

| Washington, Feb. 9.-Germany's
ruthless submarine warfare continued
with the success of the past three days
would destroy within a short time a
great part of the worlds merchant
tonnage. Officials here estimated to-
day on records for the three days since
expiration of the time allowed in the
German proclamation for ships at
sea on February to get into port that
vessels were being sunk at the rate of
nearly a million tons a month, the
amount German naval authorities set
as necessary to starve the British
Isles.
At that rate it would take just four
years to destroy the tonnage of the
entire world, 100000 tons, if all the
ships ventured into the war zone.
Lloyd's reports puts the tonnage
sunk February S, 6 and at about 49,
900 tons. st
The world turned out in 1916 less
than 2,O0O,O00 tonnage of merchant
vessels. During the year the Germans
sank, a trife more than that, making
the net loss in worlds shipping about
1 1-2 per cent.
Rushing Work on New Ships.
Ship manufacturers in all the allied
and neutral countries are rushing
work on merchant ships. Vessels have
been standardized and it is almost i'm
possible to have made any warship of
special construction. The British gov
eminent is having built great steel
cargo ships all alike and of the SIM
plest construction. The yards are busy
night and day on their construction
and as fast as they are off the ways
keels are laid for more.
There are no figures to show the
amount of tonnage constantly on the
seas carrying goods to and from the
British isles. United States customs
reports show that about million and
half tons clear from American ports
every month but as some vessels clear
twice the igugres are misleading.
About the same amount of tonnage ar

SUBMARINES ARE
GERMANYS LAST
WAR RESOURCE

London, Feb. 9.-Viscount Bryce
gave to the Associated Press today his
views on the current phases of the
war and the probable effect of Ameri-
cas- action.
Speaking first of Germany's declar-
alton of war zones and menace to neu-
trails, he said:
"This is the first definite step that
brings us nearer peace. 1t looks like
the beginning of the end. Up till now
many thought the outcome of the war
might be drawn game, but now the
German government recognizing the
approach of economic exhaustion and
the growing scarcity of supplies has
become desperate and has resorted to
desperate measures. Seeing no other
hope of success, it is throwing over
every remaining restraint of law and
proclaiming it's contempt for neutral
opinion"
Germany undertook the invasion of
huHldilld III tHS UCllCI tIdI VISIOI
there would startle the world, would
appease discomfort in Germany and
enable it to dictate peace on it's own
terms. When the German armies
scored success in Rumania, the Ger
man government thought the time for
debating peace had come. This was
its calculations. But the offer was
made in way which showed the
terms were to be terms imposed by
a conoueror, which would enable her
to retain most of her ill-gotten gains.
She ought to know the allies could
not possibly admit such terms. When
the allies unanimously rejected the Of
fer because they knew it could not Sc
cure a durable peace but would mere
ly give her time for resting till she
was ready to resume her attacks, the
German government grew desperate
and determined to try desperate expe-
dents. Hence these submarine threats,
which almost amount to declaration
of war against neutrals.
eve need not be surprised, for the
whole conduct of the German govern
ment has been of piece. They began
by invading Belgium, an innocent
country with which they had no quar-
rel, merely to gain military advan-
tage. They slaughtered thousands OF
innocent Belgian civilians, men, wom'
en- and children. They drowned limo
cent passengers and crews of passen-

this country to the verge of war, as
having left 100000 prisoners whom
this country was caring for in seri-
Gus situation, and as having brought
down on Germany the moral indigna-
ton of practically all the rest of the
world. Some neutrals also think that
the last three days have shown the
possibility that the German threat to
isolate England may be made good.
With $1,000 tons today and $4,000
tons the two previous days, the under,
sea boats are reaping at the rate
which both German naval critics and
the Manchester Guardian say would
render England helpless. Immediate
changes are locker for in England,
! first as to the methods of fighting the
undersea boats and second as to safe
guarding the country against starva-
ton. Whether better protection will
be had by heavier armament of mer-.
chant vessels, convoy, provision of sea
lanes or a supreme attempt to root
out the German fleet are subjects of
interested speculation,
Diversion of Scandinavian trade
from examination at Falmouth or 9TH
er English ports to Halifax already
has been suggested in Scandinavian
circles as possible method whereby
Danish, Norwegian and Swedish
ships could again take to the high seas
without having to run through the
German zone. The United States is
willing to second these efforts just as
possible informally, as it is TO Ameri-
can interest as we'll that trade between
the countries be kept open. Whether
| England would consent to this diver
sion is uncertain as it would be harder
to control shipping to Scandinavia
through Halifax than through a Brit
| ish port.
The last word received by the gov
eminent from Ambassador Gerard
was dated Berlin, February 5, at 7 o.
m. He now is allowed to communicate
here only indirectly through Copen-
hagen and without code. The state de-
partment communicates with him and
with the German government through
the Spanish foreign office.

Same is true of the other delicious
products Of Pinellas county.
"Can you have some of the adver-

thus far without success. I presume
it is the fault of the mails, for I have
letters from your secretary stating he

The suggestions outlined in the
above letter are good ones and worthy
of action . 1t needs no argument on
our part to convince anyone Of the su-
periority of Florida citrus fruit. No
better grapefruit is. grown anywhere
in the world than is grown all over
Florida and particularly here in Pr
nellas county. The same is, true of
oranges-you have never tasted an or
ange until you have tasted one grown
in the Land of Flowers.
The last paragraph of Mr.. Carr's
letter, however, has a distinctly local
flavor and we call the attention of the
Tarpon Springs board of trade to it.
There are thousands of homes in this
United States that are thirsting for
knowledge of Tarpon Springs and its
vicinity, and it certainly should be the
business of somebody to see that they
get it. Organizing a board of trade
and then lighting your pipe and sit
ting down will never get you any
where. The Leader can't do it all.
If, as suggested by Mr.. Carr, an
agent were located to handle Florida
fruit in such cities as Seattle, Tacoma
or Portland on the Pacific coast, and in
Butte, Helena, Salt Lake and similar
cities in the Rocky mountain region,
there is no question but that a large
trade could be readily established.
In this connection it may not be
amiss to remark again that Florida is
destined, in the very near future, to be
the great vineyard of America. Our
state enjoys two entire months of
open market for grapes when there
are no other grapes ripe in America.
We make the above statement for the
enlightenment of just such men as
Mr.. Carr, who in their turn will in
form their friends, and thus the good
work of advertising our varied re-
sources goes forward.
