Gen. w. P. Richardson, Back
From Russia, Says 139 Bodies

Col. Groom Sees Germany in
! Twenty Years Stronger
Than Before War.

The transport Princess Matoika, from
Brest, landed yesterday 1885 American
soldiers, the largest number that has ar

casual companies. With the officers were
Brig. Gen. w. p. Richardson from the
American force in Archangel. and Col.
John C. Groom of PHILADELPHIA, head OF
the Pennsylvania State Constabulary. re-
Gently with the American Relief Com
mission in Russia.
Gen. Richardson said that of the 199
Americans who died in Russia, 50 were
killed by the Bolsheviki, and that 13s
bodies were sent out on September ~ by
steamship bound for France and finally
TO the United States.
Col Groom said that when the Kol-
chalk forces could not get aid from the
Allies they naturally turned to Germany
and got a little. Germany was getting
great quantities Of raw material from
= Russia, and was as well of commercially
and industrlally as before the war. 1t
was believed all over Russia that Ger

twenty years than she was in 1914.

SHOE PRICE DROP
REPORT A MISTAKE
viii Be No Lower Next
Spring, McElwoin Explains.

There is no indication of reduction
in the prices of shoes in the near future,
according to ]. r. McElwain, president
of the National Boot and Shoe Manu-
'facturers' Association, who says his re-
marks in the Mlddlestate Shoe Whole
salers' convention In this city on Tues
day were misquoted in yesterdays
papers. Mr.. McElwain was reported as
saying that prices of leather footwear
had reached their peak and would de-
cline unless some phenomenal change
takes place in the exchange rate that
would affect hides.
The fact is" Mr.. McElwain said yes
terday, that there has been decline of
approximately 20 per cent. in the price
of hides from the high point reached in
August. 1t, however, must be borne in
mind that shoe prices have never reached
the high peak represented by the August
price of hides and have in reality been
based on hide values no higher and in
many cases considerably lower than now
prevail.
'Shoe factories have to-day a larger
volume Of orders on hand than can be
taken care of during the next three or
four months. During that period they
VIII require a large quantity of hides,
leather and other supplies. Desirable
leather is extremely scarce and cannot
be quickly obtained
There is therefore no indication OF n
recession in the price of shoes in the near
future. 1t is my opinion that shoe prices
for spring will be no lower than at
present"

DOG HE MISTREATED
CHILDREN'S FRIEND
And Butcher Pays SIS in
Court for His Brutality.

Had It been a NANCY, ugly old dog
that came to Isadore kippness, butcher,
Of 173d street and Amsterdam avenue
for shelter doubtless no one would have
raised a fuss had he thrown 1t out of a
window or mercfully whacked IL on the
head with a mallet. But the animal that
did come to him, sick and looking for
any old place to hide himself. was BLACK
Gyp," favorite with the children of the
neighborhood.
Gyp was a neat creature In his fair
weather days. That wouldn't have mat
tered especially to the children, but
when they thought 1t over as they were
burying him yesterday under an oak in
I1ighbridge Park they were certain that
Gyp was neat. They remembered him.
of course. for his cool muzzle and his
speaking way OF waving his tail
Two of the children were walking past
Kippness's butcher shop yesterday when
they heard plaintive whining in the
courtyard. beside the shop. They looked
down and saw their friend Gyp and
called to him and found he couldn't
move. The children got through the
fence and brought Gyp out. They found
three of his legs were broken. They told
their parents, and somehow word got to
Mrs. NJ. A. Hays, the Washington
Heights agent for the S, p. C. A.
Mrs Hays caused the butchers arrest
In court she said she had learned that
Kippness had squeezed Gyp through a
window opening on the courtyard and
dropped him. 1t was a fall of fourteen
feet and Gyp, being sick, was in no con-
dition for such drop Mrs. Hays also
said that Kippness had offered her S. II
she would not press the charge. The
court fined Kippness SIS.

AUSTRALIA MUST BE
FINE PLACE TO LIVE
No I. w. VS., No Fl. c. of L.,
Food and Money Surplus.

Mark Sheldon, sent to the United
States as a commissioner for Australia,
arrived in this city yesterday and opened
offices at 81 Broadway. He is to act as
an official representative of Australian
business interests to foster trade. He
said before he left Sydney he met a
party of American f1nanciers and bust
ness men Interested in opening American
markets to Australian goods.
Mr.. Sheldon cited a state of affairs In
his home country that is remarkable for
it's contrast to American conditions. The
cost of living has advanced by 80 per
cent, cottages with four commodious
rooms in desirable locations rent from
$40 to $25 a month, the labor unions are
required TO arbitrate and there are no
l. w. w. No new taxes are to be re-
quired to pay the war debt and the
budget for the present year reveals an
incoming revenue that will run the coun-
try and leave a surplus.
Australia has three seasons crops of
wheat stored up because OF the lack of
shipping during the war and now ia
ready to put the store on the markets of
the world. The wool clip has been
bought by the British Government Aus
tralia is on her feet and out looking for
business. says Mr.. Sheldon.
He explained the total absence of I.
w. W. as due to legislation which has
forbidden the existence of such an or
ganization. The unemployment prob
lem has been solved by the Government
paying $40 week TO former soldiers
until they are settled in Jobs. with SO
additional II the men are married. Mr..
Sheldon was asked II he didn't think he
was describing Utopia, and he lust
grinned, remarklng that he could prove
any one of his statements, or all OF them

UNREST REFLECTED
IN JURIES. HE SAYS
Great Care Necessary in Sc
Iecting Panels.

Thorndyck c. McKennee, Commits
sioner of jurors of Queens said yester-
day that the unrest that is being ex-
plotted by agitators had made 1t neces-
sary that extreme care be taken in pre-
pairing jury lists. He explained that
cases growing from the spread Of an
archistic propaganda are numerous on
criminal dockets and that the safety of
American institutions would be con-
served by making sure that only men of
sound patriotism are included on panels
Commissioner Mckenzie said he did
not mean that none but native born
Americans should be called for service.
I'VE find very frequently that men who
have become naturalfzed citizens are as
thorough patriots as men born here he
said.
