NOT ABLE TO ARM

New York, Feb. 9.--Unable to find
guns with which to arm their ships, Of
fieials of the American line today said
the sailing of the st. Louis is just as
indefinite as ever Numerous attempts
to get guns from American manufac-
turers have brought the response that
they will have to come through the
United States navy, as all guns now be-
ing made in this country are for for
eign governments.
Numerous applications from former
gunners for work on the liners have
been received, but they have not yet
been acted upon.
Port regulations today are consider
ably relaxed. Collector of the Port
Malone has withdrawn orders that no
one shall be allowed to leave the Ger
man and Austrian ships without going
TO Ellis Island. The men are now
paroled in custody of their officers
Each mans name and whereabouts
were given port officials.

SwitChmen's Grievances
Have Been Adjusted

Chicago Feb. s.--Eighteen railroads
entering Chicago have granted the de-
mands Of the Switchmen S Union and
the strike that yesterday seemed inev-
liable will not ococur. The strike vote,
taken recently, last night was annulled
by Viee-P President James Murdock Of
the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men.
The four grievances Of the switchmen
were adjusted the first hour Of the con-
ference yesterday, but the additional
demand for an eight hour day and time
and one-half for overtime kept the rep
resentatives of the board of managers
and union officials haggling until late
into the night.
N'We have reached satisfactory
agreement with the men," George Hin
nauer, chairman of the managers COM
mittee said. "All danger of strike is
passed. I"
The strike threat, if carried into ef.
feet, would have paralyzed transeontin'
entail shipping through Chicago.

Mr. Sothern as a wealthy financier
purchased a beautiful painting called
|"The Chattel." He believes his girl
wife his chattel also as he helped her
father out of financial difficulties be.

of the state Of affairs she plays against
him in the stock exchange and buys
her freedom.
1t is then that he slashes the canvass
of "The Chattel," with a sword-de.
spondent because, for the first time
in his life he has failed in keeping
what he coveted.
This painting played large part in
the story and was purchased by the
vitagraph company for large sum
Nevertheless, nothing was done to pre-
vent the destruction Of the valuable
canvass for to have eliminated thu

Wall Street Anxious
For Uncertainty to End

New York. Feb. 9.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Wall Street is rapidly drawing to the
point where it will welcome any kind
of news that will put period to The
uncertainty now prevailing, even
though the whole situation must resolve
itself into an intimate state of war.
Affairs at the present time could
scarcely be more disturbing. Not only
are the stock and bond markets that
prey of every idle rumor, but those en-
gagged in financial enterprises do not
know which way to turn and the result
is practical stagnation.
1t is argued, not without some show
of reason. that if the kaiser and his
ministers had wanted to force the is
sue it would have been a simple matter
a week ago to have made mistake
that could only lead to war between
he two countries.
1t is not surprising therefore, that
trading in securities was sluggish today.
A variety of rumors failed to impart
any material animation.
Washington is keeBly alive to the
fact that so long as this country awaits
the overt act just SO much longer is it
under virtual blockade by Germany.
Not only was trading extremely quiet
but price changes with few exceptions
were Negligible. In the afternoon the
general list was inclined to be heavy.
At the same time there was distinct
weakness in the traction and other
public utility shares.
!. United States Steel moved listlessly
between 1854 and something below
104. The other steel and copper shares
were alike narrow for the most part.

Y. M. c. A. Junior Member
ship Teams Were Organized

When the Junior membership teams
were organized at the Y. M. G. A. last
evening, under the leadership of Rob
ertson Brooks and Royal Moore, en-
thusiasm ran to such fever heat that
before ten minutes had passed, Rob-
ertson Brooks made the rash statement
that if his side failed in getcing more
members than did ROYAL Moore, he
would "roll a peanut around the
block with erow.barin The chal-
lenge was Immediately taken up by
Captain Moore. Hence it is an assured
fact that one or the other will be seen
laboriously chasing a poor unsuspect-
ing "guber" around a busy city block
this evening.
The two teams lead by these two
dead-game sportsmen are allied with
the men of the senior department
Royal Moore with Captain Reinhart
and Royal Moore with Captain Wat
son and from indications they win set
pace which will keep the older fell
lows guessing if they intend to keep
up with them. The teams are as fol
lows:
Royal Moore, Captain; Kenneth Per-
ry, Bill Howard, Marshall Ryan, Earl
Shafer Wolcott Buren, Robin Fisher,
Reed Rowland, Marvin Holt, Amory
Gill, Don Ryan, Vernon Perry.
Robertson Brooks, captain; Lloyd
Bohannon, Harold McIntire, Ben
Howard, Kenneth Waters, Don Brad
ford, Jack Bayes, Roderiek Waters,
Armin Berger, Edwin soeolofsky.

HARD AND SOFT OR
ANY KIND Of CORN
Tells How to Loosen a Tender
Corn So II Lifts Out With
out Pain

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once week invited an awful
death from Iockjaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn, the soreness is relieved
and soon the entire corn, root and all,
lifts out with the fingers
1t is sticky substance which dries
the moment it is applied and is said
to simply shrivel the corn without IN
flaming or even irritating the sur
rounding tissue or skin. 1T is claimed
that quarter of an ounce will cost
very little at any of the drug stores
but is sufficient to rid one 's feet of
every hard or soft corn or callus.
You are further warned that cutting
at corn is suicidal habit.
