FEDERAL RESERVE PLACES BANKS IN
 STACKER CLASS

New York, July 12.---In an effort to smoke out those banking institutions which are not doing their share in subscribing to United States certif- cates of indebtedness, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, together with other Reserve banks, is sending to member institutions lists of sub scrtbers so that all may know what institutions are slackers. These lists are not for the eyes of the general public, but there is a possibility that the names of those institutions which are not putting their shoulders to the wheel will be published if they con- ttnue to maintain their present atti- tude of indifference.
 | Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo recently requested that the banks and trust companies every two weeks lay aside 2 l-2 per cent. of their gross re- sources to be invetsed in United ,States certificates of indebtedness so that the government may use the funds until ready for the next Lib erty Loan. An analysis of the sub 8criptions, however, shows that he so-called country institutions, that is, smaller banks and trust companies, are not doing their proper share. In some instances the banks and trust companies in small towns have not subscribed at all for the certificates of Indebtedness.
 The Federal Reserve Bank of New York announces that summary of the subscriptions received for the first issue of certificates of indebtedness dated June 25, 1918, and due October 2A 1918, shows that of a total of 1,045 national and State banks and trust companies, only 594 subscribed, while 451 did not subscribe. In other words about 40 per cent. of the banking in- stitutions are in the stacker class. By classes the tabulation shows that of 621 national banks, 25S failed to sub scribe; that of 22S State banks, 120 did rot subscribe, and of 196 trust com panies, 73 are non-subscrbers,

JUDGE KELLOGG
 DFI{IES MOTION

When the case of Addison Ferris was tried in this city last May non Tlit was granted to Harriett A. Miller of Stamford, who was being sued for 960,000 by Ferris. He i~ a I1-year- old boy who was injured by fall from a cherry tree, paralysis resulting in both legs through the fall. Ferris alleged that he had been hired to pick cherries for the defendant, but the court found that he had not been hired and 50 granted the non-suit.
 A motion was introduced before Judge Kellogg to deny the non-suit but in a decision handed down yes- terday the motion is denied. It is probable that the case will be taken to the supreme court of errors. Un- less this court of last resort reverses the decision of the superior court the boy, who will never be able to walk again. will not receive a bit of com- pensation for his injuries.

CARDINAL FARLEY DIES
Archbishop of New York Sue
cumbs to Pneumonia.
Aged Prelate Was Known az Demo.
cratic, Large-Hearted and
Seif-Efacing. q

: Mamaroneck, N. Y, Sept. 19.-Car-
dinal John M. Farley, archbishop of
New York, died at his country home
here. The aged prelate had been sink
ing rapidly since he suffered a relapse
last Saturday following partial recov-
cry from al attack of pneumonia.
He was born in County Armagh,
Ireland, in 1912. He entered st. Johns
college at Fordham, N. Y, in 1864; he
was ordained priest in Rome in 1870.
In 1902 he became the fourth arch
bishop of New York, and was elevated
to the cardinalate in 1911.
Cardinal Farley was known as a
democratic, large-hearted and self-ef-
facing prelate.
He was a remarkable linquist and a
proficient writer, having always exhib.
tied an aptitude for both English and
classical composition.
His grasp upon American constitu-
tional history vas said to be extraord-
mary. The history of the United
States was his favorite subject of read
ing.

Washington, Sept. $50 far as
the American government is con-
cerned, Austria's peace offensive Is q
closed incident.
Secretary Lansing sent to the Swed-
ish minister the note authorized by
President Wilson fatty rejecting in
two short sentences the proposal of
the Austro-Hungarian government for
secret and non-binding peace discus
sion. 1t was started on the cables at
once for transmission to Vienna by
the foreign Office at Stockholm.
The Presidents action, including
the precedent-setting brevity of the
reply and the promptness with which
1t was delivered. drew expressions of
approval everywhere in Washington,
at the capitol, among officials and
throughout the Allied diplomatic corps.
Similar responses from the other ma
tions at war with Germany are ex
pected to follow quickly.
"Both Wise and Right" Says Lodge.
In the Senate, Senator Lodge, of
Massachusetts,, Republican floor lead
er and the ranking minority member
of the foreign relations committee,
voiced the feelings of Congress on the
subject in a prepared speech heartily
approving the Presidents course as
both wise and right. The United
States, the senator said, can talk
peace only to a Germany beaten and
deprived of power further to harm a
wronged world. He was followed by
Senator McCumber, of North Dakota,
Republican, and Senator Thomas, o
Colorado, Democrat. with like express
sions.
On the House side Representative
Tess, of Ohio, chairman of the Repub-
lican Congressional committee, spoke
in approval, declaring that the quick
reply might Jar upon diplomatic ears,
but is justified as a rebuke to the
double dealing of our enemy"
Similar Action BY Allies Seen.
Unequivocal reflections of the Aus
trian offer from all the Allies will be
I'm accordance with the general policy
which has governed the Allied powers
and America in meeting the German
peace offensive. Prompt action is re-
garded as the surest means of defeat
ing the underlying purpose of the Cen
trail powers to shake the Allies and de-
velop fatal weaknesses by encouraging
expression of the individual aims and
views of the separate states. Foreign
Minister Balfour's comment yesterday
is accepted in Washington as a SUN.
cient indication of the attitude OF
Great Britain and 1t is not doubted
similar expressions will be forthcom'
ing from other Allied capitols In the
next few days.
Regarding this phase of the peace
campaign as practically closed, the adj
ministration is now closely watching
for the next move on the part of the
enemy, for it is believed they will not
abandon their efforts.

Springfield, Mo, Sept. 10. - In a
train N mile east of Marshfield, Mo-,
20 soldiers were killed and between
so and 60 more were injured.
Bodies of between 10 and 20 soldiers
were recovered but several others
were buried beneath the wreckage and
it will be impossible to reach them be-
fore the w%recking crew has cleared the
tracks.
The first coach contained troops
from Colorado and Minnesota with a
few from Missouri. In the second
coach were troops from West Virginia,
Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska.
The injured were placed aboard a
relief train from Springfield and
rushed to hospitals here.
All bodies recovered we're brought
to Springfield where they will be pre-
pared for shipment to their respective
homes.
There was little confusion at the
scene OF the wreck. Within a few
minutes after it occurred a guard of
soldiers had been thrown out around
the tracks and the soldiers were at
work removing bodies and giving first
aid to their wounded comrades.
Marshfield physicians were called in
to assist in caring for the wounded.
After the first half hour no one else
was allowed to approach the wreck.
Names Not Available.
The anne of the killed and injured
were not available, a strict censorship
being placed on all information as to
the wreck by the army officers on
board the train. No information as
to the fate of the train crews was
available nor would railroad officials
comment as to the probable cause for
the collision.
1t was stated here the engineer of
the troop train was killed and the fire
man badly injured.
Orders Miscarry.
The wreck occurred a short dis.
lance out of town in a fairly open
country, the point of collision being
on a ten-foot hill. IL is thought a mis-.
understanding of orders was the cause
of the wreck.
The trains collided head-on, the en-.
CINE of the troop train being badly
damaged. The baggage car of the
troop train was entirely demolished
n the first passenger car was thrown
forward until one end rested on the
tender of the engine.
1t was from the wreck of this car
that the bodies were taken.

eleven DIE IN FIRE
Victims Are Trapped On Top
Floor of War Factory.
Explosion Is Believed to Have Been
Caused by Defective Elec-
trio Wire.

Newark, N. j., Sept. 19.-Trapped
In a cloak room on the top floor, eight
girls, a boy and a man persisted here
in a fire which destroyed the plant
of the American Button company.
Another girl was killed when, seek.
ing to escape from the flames, she
Ieaped from a window. Nine other
girls were injured, several probably
fatally.
The factory hummed with the in
dustry of more than 800 young women
engaged in making buttons for army
and navy uniforms. The building is
a fiame-swept ruin, the top floor of
which formed a tomb for workers who
had been driven into the cloak room
by flames and smoke.
Upper Floor Workers Trapped.
The girls on the lower floors made
their escape, some by jumping and
others by the fire escapes. Most of
the dead and injured were working in
the carding room at the top of the
building. 1t is believed that when
they found escape by means of fire
escapes and stairways III off, they
fed in a panic to the cloak room,
where their bodies were later found
huddled together. All were burned
beyond recognition and it was only
through trinkets and bits or scorched
attire that Identification was at all
possible.
The fire started in cans of lacquer
stored on the second floor, according
to Frederick w. Goerdes, the super.
intendent, who said that an explosion
occurred when a defective insulated
electric wire came in contact with one
of the ans.
