A Good Reason

The officials of the board of ex-
emption ended their three days OF
strenuous work Thursday night,
and while it may not have been
pleasant on account of the serious
ness for which it was called to act,
many amusing things came up that
livened up the members. One of
these was a letter which read:
ITO the Board of Examiners for
Draft. Sir: A notice was sent to a
party by name Oil. This man
is not in this state, and to tell the
truth it is hard to tell where he is
at. for he is dead If there is any
more information needed, let me
know. Yours respectfully"

Chin. Forced Into III. world Wa,

China's official explanation of the
declaration of state of war with
Germany and AustrO-Hungary in
the form of statement by the
Chinese foreign Office, was received to
night at the Chinese legation here.
1t said: In view of the many
kinds of German intrigues seeking
to create disorder in China, the
Chinese government. found it i'm
possible to wait for the cOnvoca-
tion of parliament before declar-
ing the existence of the state Of war
with Germany, especially since the
rupture of diplomatic relations
with the imperial German govern
ment had been made previously by
parliament almost unanimously.
Austria Hungary has all along
been acting in concert with the Ger
man imperial government. More
over the Austrains like the Ger
mans, have special settlements in
China which might easily be used
by Germans who speak the same
language as Austrains, as a base
of operation for further intrigues,
thereby rendering the sitution still
more difficult for China to cope
with.
'The Chinese government, there
fore, was unable to adopt different
attitude toward AustriaHungary
but was constrained, as an act OF
self-protection, simultaneously to ac-
cord her the same treatment as
was accorded Germany

TORNADO AT TWO BUTTES
LAST FRIDAY EVENING
One Man Killed And Another pro-
baby Fatally Injured When
Storm Strikes

One man was killed and another
probably fatally injured at Two
Buttes, last Friday evening when
tornado struck the town and
destroyed a number of buildings.
Prehaps score or two OF people
were injured in the storm and con
siderable damage was done to pro-
perty in that section. Three resi-
dences were destroyed and num-
Der of autos parked in the street
were blown about like as many
paped sacks. 1t is estimated that
the velocity of the wind was near
the hundred mile mark. -
Frank Pruitt, the printer on the
Two Buttes Sentinel, was buried
under the derbis OF building that
was raised by the storm, while
Harry Gather, proprietor OF the
Two Buttes hotel, was cought in
the sWirling storm and lifted fif-
teen or twenty feet in the air,
twice. then dropped on the street
with several broken ribs and other
wise badly bruised up. Seven men
in one of the merchantile stores
were injured in various ways as
they attempted to rush from the
swaying building, of which, both
the north and south walls were
blown away in spite of the fact
that the building was constructed
of cement.
There was no rain or hail with
the storm but in other parts of
Baca county the rain and hail is re
ported as very heavy The storm
was one of the worst ever eXperienc-
ed in this section of the state and
it is impossible at this time to es-
innate Just what the total damage
will be.

Tourists Encounter Heavy Rainfall
Here


Sam Kirby, farmer living ten
miles south of Wichita, Kansas, is
on his way to Del Norte whit his
family in an automobile, and pass
ed thru Pueblo yesterday. after
making the 500 miles from Wichita
to Pueblo, in two days. He states
that he and his party encountered
heavy rain at Holly and eastern
Colorado Friday night.
''The crops in western Kansas are
burning up for lack of moisture" "
stated Kirby, "but from Holly to
Pueblo the wheat, sugar beets, corn
and melons look fine, and there
should be a banner crop this fall in
these varities.
There were $50 tourists stalled in
Holly Friday night Kirby said,
'The garages and hotels were filled
to capacity and we were able to OBJ
tain only one room in the Holly
hotel. The roads were in such a
condition as to make travel pratical-
ly impossible for a large ear. 1T
rained all night long. ''The ranch
es surrounding me in Kansas had
indications of good crops. but rain
fall has been scarce that some men
are obtaining only seven to ten
bushels of wheat to the acre.
Kirby believes that he will reap
from IL to 40 bushels of wheat and
barley to the acre on his farm,
which is in the lowlands. He also
states that he is now cutting his
third crop of alfalfa, and that the
first and second cuttings were ex-
cellcnt.
He and his family will continue to
Del Norte today. spending some
time in looking over the crop pro-
spects and land values. They will
return to Kansas the last of this

sY REVIEW LEAsEp WIRE

NEW YORK, Oct 19. - Equipments and the more important war shares were again the conspicuous features of today's strong and active stock mar ket. Rails and the securities of other companies which derive less direct benefit from war demands also moved forward. thoueh more deliberately.
 The strength of the war group was chiefly due to an increasing recogni- ton of the advantageous nosition oc- cupied bv some of those stock in con nection with new and very large con- tracts. Bethlehem Steels retained their lead of the previous day. the old common stock adding Siz points at its best to it's recent gain, while the new issue rose ' to 7Ss. making a naximum advance of almost 20 points from it's minimum of the early week. United States Steels extreme advance was only 1b noints to 1063s. but all this was lost in the more general realizing of the last hour.
 oHlppHSs Cdlne III TUT hhuCu dtIeh- tion at gains of 3 to points, and numerous specialties showed equal ad- vances while the list was at it's best.
 Coppers and several of the gas stocks manifested additional reaction ary tendencies. this condition being overcome in part later.
 The movement of rails was irregu- lar, as Pacifics were susceptible to moderate offerings Sales amounted to 965.000 shares.
 Bonds were hesitant and limited as to dealings. Liberty 9%'s followed the narrow range of 99.70 to 99.72, with sales of bonds, par value, aggregating S5,500.000. United States bonds, old issues, were unchanged on call, the Panama 3's rising 2s per cent on sales.

DUN'S REVIEW
(By Review Leased Wire. )

NEW YORK, Oct 19.-Dun's Re view tomorrow will say:
 With the steadily widening infiu- ence of the war, business encounters many new problems and obstacles and not all reports regarding it's condition are of the same tenor. But with the main trend continuing in the right di- rection there are more points of gain than of loss in the general situation, and the position of trade and indus try has not been measured by the re- cent action of the securities markets. Where the outlook has been made clearer by the partial or complete re- moval of doubts about commodity prices. there has come an immediate strengthening of sentiment and some revival of activity, and where other uncertainties have been lessened or eliminated, progress has been resumed with vigor. Yet of the competitive and excited bidding, which was so conspicuous feature year ago, there is now a wholesome absence. and it is highly reassuring that, while many buyers operate more freely and with greater confidence. conservatism shows no abatement

GRAIN MARKET,

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-Corn prices av- eraged lower today, influenced largely by seasonable weather for putting the crop into readiness for shipment Prices closed unsettled. varying from 7sc decline to kc advance, with De- cember 1153s and May 11Oas to 11012. Oats finished 1s@H to Ac down. The outcome in provisions ranged from a setback of 40c to a raise of $1
 A temperature drop that seemed just what was needed to dry out new corn kept bulls almost constantly at a disadvantage. Forecasts of a return of warmth and moisture tomorrow however, tend to lessen pressure on the December delivery and made that option relatively firm. Reports of prospective liberal buying for the Mex ican government counted a little also to harden values. Investment demand appeared to be absent -ands support came nearly altogether from shorts.
 Oats were easy with corn. Receiv- CTS said farmers showed more dispo- sition to sell. so as to provide storage room for corn.
 Shipping call for nearby deliveries of provisions was assumed to result from hoisting of maximum quotations at Liverpool.
 On the other hand, severe fresh breaks in hog values here made the late options comparatively weak.
