It was apparent that what supply of contracts the market had was coming from satisfied longs, but it was noteworthy that liquidation was not on a scale sufficiently large to indicate that any unwieldy long interest had accumI- lated. The only indication was ,nat spinners' interest had accumulated and that spot people were still buying con tracts and looking them up. The favor able war accounts, reports of disaffect.on in Austria, the rumor that England had authorized the United States to com mandeer British ships for the transpcr- tation of troops the small tonnage losses this last week, and the acquisition ot 450000 tons of ships by this country from Japan, the failure of rains to appear in Tevas and the strength of spots wore the features of the day which were back of the rise.

A QUESTION OF IMPORTANCE
TO FLORIDA LANDOWNERS

Land owners in Florida whose prop
erty has prior to 1917 sold for taxes,
will find this letter from Mr.. W. w.
Clyatt of this city of extreme inter-
est to them.
Mr.. Clyatt is in a business that re-
quires him to keep posted on ebery
land transaction as well as the laws
affecting transfers, and in the inter
est of delinquent taxpayers he sub
mits the following:
Editor Ocala Banner:
wish ii cali the attention of Flor
ida land owners to the fact that the
act of the last Legislature allowing
lands sold for taxes prior to 1917, will
by its own provision expire Oct. /,
1918; after which interest will be
charged at the rate of 25 per cent
for the first year and per cent there
after, instead Of s per cent from May
2S, 1917, as the law now stands.
If you own land On which the state
holds an old certificate, you can save
money by redeeming the same before
October /.
For instance, a tract of land sold
to the state Oct 3rd, 1898 for $3.50
can be redeemed Sept 80, for 4.98 and
fees, but would cost $12.02 and fees
the next day If it happens to be
Ocala or any city property with an
assessed valuation of 100000, the
1898 taxes would be $500 (tbe taxes
for 1918 will be $4,000 and could be
paid Sept. 30, Tor $1,000 and fees, the
next day it would cost $40.05 and
fees.
W. W. CLYATT. b,
Those who had land sold for taxes
should look into this matter at once
and save the greatly increased cost
of redeeming their lands.

Americans in Hard Fight

Paris, Sept 11-At $50 O'Clock
this morning the Germans began a
heavy artillery action on the American
front lines in the Vosges sending
over some two hundred prOjectiles
from the mine throwers and thOus'
and heavy calibre shells. At $40
the enemy opened up a strong fire
on the communication trenches.
Reports from two observation sta
tions were that sixty Germans were
observed entering their own lines
with wounded, but % reports from the
American front lines had been receiv'
ed at this hour. 1t seems probable
that tee raid which developed after
the artillery fire was beaten off with
casualties to the enemy.

London, Sept. Weather condi-
tions have bee1 very bad heavy rains
having fallen yesterday and today.
Under more favorable weather con
ditions the British and French armies
might be said to be within striking
distance of tre old Hindenburg line
from north of ST. Quentin to LaFere
but an attack in force over this front
is not to be expected at this time.
In this sction, as in the ST. Gobain
forest and the Chemin des Danes pO-
sitiOns the Germans are taking adj
vantage of the intricate system of de
fenses in front Of the old Hindenburg
line which enables them to resist the
allied advance with greater power
and man force.
In the Lys sector Armestieres is
almost within the grasp if the British
who are advancing upon the town
from both the north and west Armen-
there's is used by the Germans as a
supply center and next to Douai to
the south it is the most important
point in the enemy's northern system
of military roads Of communication.
The British are slowly driving a
wedge in the direction of Douai, which
is reported to tie burning.
In the Aisne-Vesle sector, where the
Americans are cooperating with the
French the artillery fighting continues
active. The French have advanced
slightly at Glennes and north of Laf-
faux and generally improved their po-
sitions
