REMoDELlNG is PLANNED
Purchase Made in AntiCipa-
ton Of City'S Future,

Purchase Of the building and site
formerly occupied by the Western Ma
tional bank building, northwest corner
OF Broadway and Main street, for a
consideration OF $4,000 was announced
this morning by Frank J. Wikoff, presi-
dent OF the Tradesmens State bank.
As soon as labor and material are OBJ
tainable the building is to be remodeled
and made strictly modern and fire
proof. The bank will then move from
its present. location at ios West Main
street.
waitst II Ysara
Purchase Of the building comes after
twenty -one years OF waiting. Mr.
Wikoff in 1897 made an attempt to OBJ
tain the site for banking purposes, bu,
was unable to get it. One year later
NJ. L. Turner obtained the corner. Since
that time, Mr.. Wikoff says, he has had
the corner in mind for a bank, and his
ambition was realized today when al,
arrangements were completed for its
transfer
The TradeSmens State bank when il
moves into its new location will oc-
cupy all the room now taken by the
ROYAL Clothing company, l0J West
Main street, the room formerly used
by the Western National and the two
rooms occupied by barber shop ani
confectionery on Broadway just back
Of the old bank location The Trades
mems State bank also will probably
retain its present room on Main street
but will not occupy il for banking pur-
poses
The new location will give the bank
room measuring 60x90 feet, the sec
ond largest banking floor in the city

LONDON, Nov. 26. - The
foreign office confirms the re-
port that British law officers
of the crown, in cooperation
with the French authorities,
are considering the question of
the extradition of the. former
German emperor. The foreign
office says it has not yet made
a report and consequently no
action has yet been taken.
LONDON, Nov. 27.-Wil-
liam Hohenzollern will have
to leave Holland il his presence
there becomes perilous to that
country, Premier Ruijs de
Beerenbrouck is quoted by
the Amsterdam correspondent
Of the Daily Express as declar-
ing in the second chamber of
the Dutch parliament Novem-
Der 20.
"The kaiser Is in Holland
as a private person." said the
premier as quoted by the cor
respondent, "The hospitality
of the country is extended him
in accordance with a centuries
old tradition. But it goes with
out saying that the moment
his sojourn becomes a danger
to the state, he will have to
leave. We believe the kaiser
and those with him understand
the position and will act ac-
cording to their interests"

FRENCH CITIES ARE GROWING
Secondary Municipalities and Towns
Are Gaining Rapidly by I'M
migration.

Paris.-The statistics for the popula-
lions of the secondary cities and towns
of France, completed before the exo-
dus from Paris began, show an extraor-
binary increase owing chiefly to the
immigration of foreign and colonial
workmen employed in munition and
other factories.
Marseilles, with about 100000 inhab-
itants when the war began, has now a
population of more than 1,OO0,OO0.
With the many refugees from the
towns about Paris, evacuated because
of the German advance, and with some
of the population of Paris which flew
from the big cannon, that figure may
be said to be even higher. Lyons has
increased its population from 100000
to 100000, without including additional
thousands in the suburbs. Bordeaux's
population has risen from 261,67S to
1885, 900, and the suburban parishes
have grown from $500 to 120,S55.
Havre has increased from 136,159 to
$4,000 without including the garrison
of 10000 foreigners and $4,000 ref
ugees, mostly B%elgians.

EAT SEAWEED
Victims of Hun Submarine Drift
Eleven Days.
Crew of Norwegian Vessel Picked Up
in Midocean in Pitiful
Condition.

An Atlantic Port.-1he Norwegian
steamer Augvald, zoos tons, bound
from a French port for Baltimore, has
fallen a victim to a German subma-
rine. A transatlantic liner brought the
news of the sinking of the Augvald in
midocean and also landed IL members
of the crew of 81 men. Three of the
crew were drowned and the remaining
13 are un%accounted for.
The rescued men were picked up by
the liner after having drifted help
lessly for II days, subsisting most of
that time on seaweed and rainwater
wrung from their clothing or caught
in their caps. They were in an ex-
hausted condition when picked up, but
by careful nursing on board the liner
they had fairly recovered when they
reached here.
According to the crew the steamer
was stopped by shell fire, the crew or
sunk with bombs.
Captain Egge of the Augvald left
the ship with II men in his boat and
1t became separated from the other
lifeboat containing ii of the crew. For
two days the latter boat drifted about
and was then upset in a storm. Three
of the men were swept away and the
others managed to right the boat and
bale 1t out. They lost all their food
and fresh water and even their oars
were gone.
Drifting helplessly, the men began
to suffer for want of food and water.
Seaweed was eagerly snatched up and
chewed and every device they could
think of was resorted to to catch rain
water. There was a succession Of rain
storms and the men were almost con-
%tinually drenched. Day after day went
by and finally the rescue ship came
over the horizon and the exhausted
and starving men were soon safely on
the deck of the liner and given every
comfort.
