Again in Prison

Starkweather, serving a term for
horse stealing, who has twice escaped
from the state prison. is again be-
hind the bars, being captured last
night by the sheriff of Stark county,
North Dakota, who held him as a
draft evader till he was identified
as an escaped prisoner.
Starkweather. originally sentenced
for horse theft, made his first escape
several years ago. While at large he
killed a man in Dunn county was
arrested and tried for murder, but
the jury disagreed. At that time he
was identified as Starkweather, and
was returned to the state penitentiary
to complete his sentence.
Several weeks ago he again es-

evader.

Argentine Loan to Allies

Details received here yesterday of
the $200,Oo0,OO0 loan granted to the
Allies by the Argentine government
arc interesting because of the novel
features of the transaction. The loan
will run for two years at 6 per cent
1t will be progressively cancelled, &C
cording to agreement, by the payment
by the Allies Of interest due ON Ar
gentine loans held in tho Allied coun-
tries during that period; also by the
payment OF the principal Of loans ne
gotiated by Messrs. Barring Brothers,
Of London, including the $25,0oO,0OO
loan due in 1920. The bonds of the
Barring issues have already been requ-
sitioned by the British government.
The minimum price Of Argentine wheat
TO the Allies has been fixed at $l2.50
for 100 kilos, and the maximum at $15
For oats, the price has been fixed at
81. and for linseed at SIS for the same
quantity. A total of 2,5OO,00O tons Of
grain has been arranged for, mostly
wheat. An important effect of the
scheme should be to reduce the present
premium on the Argentine dollar,
which lately has ruled as high as 10
per cent.

Committee to Look
Into the Affairs of
Am. Hide & Leather
Company's Earnings for Last
Quarter Showed Falling OFF
From a Year Ago

Directors Of the American Hide and
Leather Company at meeting yester-
day adopted resolution, authorizing
an examination of the company's af-
fairs. A committee was appointed, con-
sisting of Theodore S. Haight. presi-
dent of the company; Charles p. Hall,
vice presidents; Lindsey Hopkins and
Frederick Strauss, directors, and C. Z.
Danforth, of 1904 Broadway, with
power to employ experts and arrange
the details Of the examination.
1t was understood that this action
was taken at the suggestion of the
newer directors in the company, who
believe that earnings can be improved
through greater efficiency in the man
agement.
For the quarter ended December 81
last, the company reported net earn
ings of $S67,587 compared with $685.
337 for the corresponding quarter Of
1916. The surplus after fixed charges
amounted to $702,212, decrease of
S367,750. For the six months ended
December 81, the surplus amounted to
$1,026,099, compared with $1,180,674
for the last half of 1916.

WALL STREET OFFICE:
Mills Building, IL Broad st.

be renewed in Congress. According
to Washington dispatches, the Presi-
dent believes that a situation has
arisen which requires immediate
legislation delegating to him neccs-
sary despotic powers" over prices.
Just what makes such action I'M
perative is not disclosed, but it is to
be presumed that the Administra-
tion, alarmed at the sustained rise
in the cost of living, is planning an
attempt to override the law of sup
ply and demand in relation to many
commodities which so far have been
allowed to take a natural course.
1t is dangerous proposal, unless
the Administration is willing to I'M
dertake the impossible and fix a
price for labor, the most important
commodity of all. Without control
prices are certain to 60 on rising
until, as has been predicted by Que
economist, they gre perhaps 100 per
cent above the present level. That
is the inevitable result Of the great
expansion Of bank credits, against
which the Reserve Board yesterday
gave what is likely to prove a fu+ile
warning. The price for copper was
fixed last fall, and the copper pro-
duction fell off sharply. The price
for steel was fixed, and the steel out
put in 1917 decreased in spite of
expanding demands. The price for
wheat was fixed, and the acreage
sown to winter wheat fell far short
Of the figure that had been set by
the Department of Agriculture as
the acreage which should have been
planted. The price for coal was
fixed, and the output of some mines
promptly declined. In each case
other circumstances helped to re-
strict operations, but there is no
doubt that price fixing exerted an
unfavorable influence on activities
ct producers in all of them. If the
price of wheat had been, say, $3.50
last fall-and, uncontrolled, it might
easily have reached that price-in-
stead of 81 named for the 1918 crop,
does any one doubt that much larger
acreage would have been harvested
next summer? The farmer would
have planted more, because he could
have afforded the Increased labor
cost with the prospect of huge profits
which would have accrued if the
price had not been fixed. What is
imperative, regardless Of price, is
the maximum output of wheat and
all other things which are vita.ly
needed for war. Fixing prices,
while pursuing a policy of war
finance that constantly depreciates
the purchasing power of the dollar,
will lead to heavy curtailment of
output in the end. AS it is, there is
almost sure to be a shortage of some
essentials because of the shutdown
enforced under the fuel order. Wnv
aggravate the situation by removing
the chief incentive to greater proJuc-
ton? The government has in the eX-
cess profits tax law an instrument
which effectually limits the profits of
industry and at the same time, if not
made too drastic, tends to stimulate
productivity. 1t should rely on that
instrument and others at it's com.
mand to prevent profteering, which
is about all it can hope to do with
any degree Of success.

To Facilitate Bank Clearings

In order to handle more expeditious-
ly the large number of items passing
through the New York Clearing House
the Clearing House Committee has
adopted an amendment to the constitu-
tion providing for more convenient
method of settlement of the o'clock
items. Instead of giving individual
receipts for the items exchanged at
o'clock and having to await the re-
turn Of the receipts from the Clearing
House. in order to include them in the
10 O'Clock clearing, the members are
advised merely to charge through the
later clearing the amounts delivered
at 8 o'clock. This change. it is pointed
out, will especially facilitate the work
of members located at distance from
the Clearing House, as their clerks
would not be able to return to their
banks from the early exchange and
have the receipts placed in the proper
envelopes in time for The later clear

unprecedented value of $19,443, ,S49,381

$4,000 100000 over 1916, and almost

A preliminary estimate just an
