was substituted by "Derzshava,"
which means empire. And the
money originally ordered by the re-
public and bearing that terrible
name was coming from the printer.
1t had to be accepted and couldn't
be used. The shipment had to be
accepted and stored and new money
ordered. Money was so scarce that
people paid five and ten per cent
for ordinary change. You could not
get change for even a twenty
ruble note. To supply the demand
some people went into the import
ing business and some into the job

but he could not tell what had be-

collected. He said he had received
only $4,000 of the money the Irish
in America had contributed to free
their native land.
After a considerable delay there
was an audit of OMahony's accounts
which showed collections from all
sources of S165, 900 and accounted
legitimately for the expenditure of
the entire sum. What portion Of
the money came from the sale of
bonds was not specified. But the
Fenian Brotherhood settled the con-

and declaring the entire issue null

about accepting the new money.
They would rather take the Gear
sky money. An order was then
issued announcing a date in Febru-
airy, 1919, after which date no other
but the new Ukrainian money was
to be accepted as legal tender. And,
Furthermore, whatever "Czarsky"
or any other kind of money any one
had, it was to be exchanged for the
new Ukrainian money. And the
money thus received, said to be more
than two hundred millions of it,
may be found on the exchanges of
Europe or America.
But the Ukrainians certainly had
a difficult job breaking into the
business-the money printing bust
ness. They had had no previous ex
perlence and no one to teach them
the Germans came much later. At
first they could not get any paper
good enough, nor printers expert
enced enough to work for them. The
paper tore easily, the colors were
not steady. and the printers forgot
to put serial numbers on the bills.
Not single bill had serial num-
Der, not even the Hundreds" Of
course, it tempted the non-union
printers and they started the same
business. Competition was keen, and
the scabs were taking the upper
hand. They gave better quality
money-much cheaper. The coun
terfeit money was better made and
more plentiful, with the result that
the government bank had more of
that money than of their own print

trade food for goods of any sort.
But he finds nothing in the city to
trade for-there is nothing to buy

money in the market place. The
peasants accumulated more paper
money than can be estimated. They
tell about an incident which took
place in government Office, where
a poorly dressed peasant woman
came to exchange some of her money
for new. The story is probably true.
The woman had all her money in a
large earthen pot hidden in cellar.
Rats or mice tried to eat it, but only
spoiled it, spoiled the bills beyond
recognition, rendering them un-
changeable. The woman wept and
some of the bystanders consoled her.
Then one Of the people asked her
how much money she had in the pot,
and she answered that she did not

were three pounds of it, she said.
