Catarrhal Deafness is caused by in

tnfamed you have rumbling sound or i'm

closed Deafness is the result Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition. hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of

Furs From Abroad stolen.

Because OF the many complaints
voiced by dealers Of the pilferage of
furs from packages received from abroad
the Fur Merchants Association of this
city. through its president. J. H. Blei-
stein. yesterday sent a letter to Byron
r. Newton, Collector OF the Port OF New
York. requesting him to take steps to
safeguard pelts while in the custody OF
United States customs authorities.
II Is pointed out that there Is a posi-
bflity that the thefts occur while the
merchandise is awaiting transportation
or is in the course OF transportation to
the appraisers warehouse.
The thefts lately are said to have
reached considerable dimensions and
that the thieves had become so bold that
many of the finest skins in a good per-
centage Of the furs received at this port
have been stolen in transit
While the fur association is uncertain
whether the teefts have been engineered
from New York. or in fact whether the
peits were stolen here, while on the
steamship coming here or even at their
foreign source, il was thought best to
take every precaution.

URGES GOVERNMENT
TO CUT EXPENSES
Lower Taxes Needed to Cut
Living Costs, Credit Men
Tell Wilson.

Remedies for the high cost Of living,
according to the National Association of
Credit Men. include. FIRST, a decrease in
the expenditures of the Government so
that taxes may be lowered; second, cur
tailment Of extravaganza and, third,
prevention Of labor disturbances.
These remedies, with various other
suggestions to meet the unprecedented
disturbances in the commercial world,
were embodied in letters mailed last
night by ]. Harry Tregoe. secretary
treasurer of the association, to Presi-
dent Wilson. members OF his Cabinet
and Congress-
The letters contained the opinions
adopted by the executive council OF the
association, which represents $4,000
business houses in every line OF indus
try throughout the country. and en-
phasized that the present disturbances
are merely projections OF the war. and
do not constitute a cause for business
men to doubt the soundness of the ma
ton.
Other recommendations made were
that the railroads should be returned to
private ownership: that provision should
be made for Federal Incorporation that
there should be regulation OF security
issues and interstate rates, and that
there should be created n Federal trans
portation board to bring about genuine
coordination among all rail and water
carriers.
While admitting that profiteering may
exist to some extent, the point was made
that IL does not prevail to the extent
that 1t is the chief contributing cause
OF high costs. Much good would result,
1t was said. II the Government will keep
its hands of business and do nothing to
curb personal initiative, which. It was
felt, is essential TO the welfare OF the
country

The momentary lull in the. demand
from export markets for cotton goods
is fast changing TO q better tone, Neuss,

The improvement in the gray goods
market has convinced buyers that the

goods at lower prices or secure quicker
deliveries than formerly from legitimate

while still cautious, buyers OF dry
goods are operating moro freely for
