GERMAN U-BOAT LOSSES
ARE 4OTO 5OPER CENT

By the Associated Press,
LONDON, November T.
Between 10 and so per cent of
the German submarines operat-
ing in the North sea, the Arctic
and the Atlantic since the be-
ginning Of the war have been
sunk, said Sir Eric Geddes.
first lord Of the admiralty, in
the house Of commons today.
During the last quarter the
Germans lost as many subma-
rines as they lost in 1876" said
Sir Eric Geddes.
The output of merchant ship
ping in the first nine months
of this year, he said, was 123
per cent higher than in the cor
responding period last year.

SELECTSAT CAMP MEADE
From a staff Correspondent.

From STAFF Correspondent,
CAMP MEADE, admiral, Md. Novem-
ber Modern Enfield rifles. old model
Krags, machine guns and Lewis guns
have been received here and are being
issued to the men. Each infantry regi-
ment is to receive 300 Of the new En-
fields and the same number of Krags,
and each machine gun battalion is to
have twelve machine guns, while the
machine gun companies in infantry
regiments are to get the Lewis guns.
Many of the companies drilled today
for the first time with their new rifles,
and the various units looked much
more like real soldiers than they did
when merely going through foot move
ments without rifles. The machine gun
units have not yet started with their
guns. but expect to do so, probably to-
morrow.
Camp rumor is to the effect that
probably two regiments are to be sent
at once from Camp Meade to France
to receive two or three months In
tensive training behind the lines.
The gravity of the Italian situation
and the urgent necessity for immediate
aid from this country is given as the
cause for this radical change in the
program as announced some time ago.
1t is expected that regiments that
have made the most rapid progress in
mastering the rudiments of military
training will be selected for the move.
Charles Stewart, Company c. 312th
Machine Gun Battalion. was discharged
today from military service because Of
physical disqualifications and has been
returned home. Negro selects from
Tennessee were scheduled to reach
camp during the afternoon, their ar
rival completing the present movement
Of negro drafted men to this camp. The
movement of additional white selects to
Camp Meade is to begin tomorrow and
to continue one week. The number of
negro selects now in camp is approxl-
mately 5000.

NATIVE SON OF FRANCE
ENLISTS IN U. S. ARMY
Lewis A. Robiliat, Nineteen Years
Old, Came From Mines of Michi-
gan to Enlist.

Lewis A. Robillat, nineteen years OF
age. who was born in Nancy, France,
heard today the call of millions of his
fellow countrymen and presented him
self for enlistment for immediate serv-
ice at the Army tent at 1th street and
Pennsylvania avenue northwest. Rob-
illat cannot remember his native coun-
try. as he came to America when he
was five years old, but his French
blood called. In his almost perfect
English he told Sergt. w. c. Hunt. in
charge of Army recruiting, that he had
come all the way from the copper
mines in the northern part Of Michi:
gan to see the capital Of the United
States and then to enlist.
He left on noon.t train today for the
Baltimore recruiting station. There
will be no trouble with his physical
test, as sergt Hunt believes he has
never enlisted a better specimen.
Pursuant to an act of Congress pass
ed over year ago, the Navy recruiting
station has sent out circular letters di-
recting postmasters in all small towns
to enlist men of ages between eighteen
and thirty-six for the United States
Navy. For this service the postmas-
ters who send men to a regular re-
cruiting station of the United States
Navy with letter from the postma ster

BIGGEST PACKING TRUST
BEGINS ITS EXISTENCE

CHICAGO, November 1.-The biggest
packing trust ever known-it includes
every meat-packing plant in the coun-
try-came into unopposed being today
and by grace of the government ele-
waited to the position of worlds great
est packer, Joseph p. Cotton, hitherto
. New York lawyer.
Packers who upon one occasion and
another in years past have spent mil
lions of dollars to prove that they were
not in trust admitted it with a smile
today, and pointed with pride to the
fact that the government. through Mr..
Cotton, is the controlling factor in it.
This was the day set by law for the
licensing Of packing plants and for
Ar. Cotton to take charge. A few con-
ferences were all that marked the i'm

WALL STREET Market
SUSTA|NS SEVERE BREAK

NEW YORK. November 1.-Wan
street shivered and shook this morning.
Investors also did both and had hard
time believing that the prices that
came over the ticker were an actual
reflection of conditions in the great
American market.
The worst denunciation of Wall street
by its enemies in the days that have
gone did not worry the members OF the
exchange half as badly as the contin-
ued and apparently enforced liquida-
ton.
When Steel common broke from 97h
to 96 almost in less time than 1t takes
to tell it, the lowest price for over
year. even the bears hesitated to press
for further vantage. and sedate nnan-
ciers questioned each other as to how
much farther liquidation may run.
New Lows for Rails.
But it wasn't steel alone, but other
allied metals. rails and all lndustriais.
Some of the rails made new low leVels,
in themselves surprising, and stocks
that have been among the very pest
were unable to maintain anything IKE
a value commensurate with the olVl-
dend returns.
The present levels may not be near
the bottom, but even to one long ac-
quainted with the market they certainly
look cheap, and they are liable to look
high tomorrow.
The smashing in the rails was even
worse than in some of the tndustrials

pear to be entitled to some rebate.

industrials that did not shade and

points to little more.
