TOOK TIME TO FIGURE OUT
Ferry Captain at Loss as to How
/ Much to Charge His Unusual
Customer.

Speaking at dinner Senator James
W. Wadsworth of New York referred
to the trials and tribulations of the
motorist. and contributed the following
story:
In the early days an autoist drove
up to a small ferry where the charge
for horse transportation was rs cents
for a single team and 40 cents for a
double team. He was about to 60 on
the boat, when the captain told him
he would have to wait. Three times
the ferry went back and forth across
the river, and finally the motorist be-
gan to get impatient:
I "Can't take ye over yet" declared
the captain in response to the others
demands to be ferried across. "Yer
the first one O. them things that ever
come down here an don't know what
to charge ye."
" 'Don't know what to charge me !"
wonderingly returned the motorist.
"No," answered the captain. "Pve
been studyin' We Sax different ways,
but derned If I kin figger out whether
yer be one-hoss team or two
boss team" - Philadelphia Evening
Telegraph.

Washington.-President Wilson has
received strong limitations from
Great Britain that the suggested ad.
dition Of 100000 to the existing
American army of 100000 will not
meet the demands for men in France.
This means that the schedule Of in.

ships to transport the soldiers can be
obtained. The president is giving the
matter his personal attention, and in
stead of resenting the plain talk"
from abroad sent out new order to
comb the seas for ocean transporta-
ton.
Ambassador di Collere of Italy and
Minister Eckengren of Sweden were
called to the State Department and
consulted about the situation. The
Italian ambassador is understood to
have been urged to make representa-
ton TO his government for the release
of large fleet of steamships now
practically idle
It was also made clear that further
restrictions on trade between Italy
and the United States must be ar
ranged in order to divert tonnage re-
quired for the troop service. Statistics
have been obtained by the war trade
board to show that considerable
quantity of the wheat exported from
America to italy has returned here in
the form of spaghetti.
Minister Eckengren was asked to
urge every means of speeding up the
existing negotiations with Sweden for
q certain number of ships from that
country. Sweden had received num-
Der of concessions from the United
States and must have certain supplies
from this country. 1t is believed this
leverage will be used, IL necessary, to
get the ships.
Very recently the Norwegian gov
eminent, by voluntary agreement, re-
linquished to the United States ap-
proximately 100000 tons Of shipping.
Sweden is said to be in position to
make similar arrangement If certain
German influences can be overcome.

sells for trade outside of the war

Two Austrian vessels were solved in
China, two in Siam and two in Brazil,
