EXPORT BUSINESS GROWING.

There is a prevalent impression that
the export business on which 50 much
of our war time prosperity was based
has greatly fallen OF since the sign

than amazing. then, to find such facts
as these:
According to figures compiled by

March amounted to $605.0G0,0oe as
compared with only 100000 in
March Of 1918. and for the nine

DIR. SCOTT HELD FOR THE
 MURDER OF MISS GRIFFITH

Louisville. Ky, Dec. 29.-Dr. Chris topher G. Scott. charged with killing Miss Elizabeth Ford Griffith, his office assistant, and central figure in the most mysterious Louisville murder case in many years. refused to fur nish $15,000 bail bond at the conclu- sion of arguments on motion for bail in police court here today, and elect ed to stay in jail pending his examin- ing trial later in the week.
 Dr. Scott's attorneys stated that the amount was excessive in view of the showing that had been made for their client by Laurene Gardner a girl of 13 who has asserted that she was in the physicians company delivering Christmas presents at the time it is believed Miss Griffith was shot and killed.
 The little Gardner girl, after being confined in the detention home on the charge of delinquency, was released on nominal bond pending trial in ju- venile court. ...-...
 A feature connected with the case which excited great interest, was a police announcement that Dr. Scott ir effect, had advocated trial marriage of Miss Griffith, his one time fiancee and a soldier. The theory of pr Scott, according to this version, was that such a marriage would fit her eventually to become his wife

STATEMENT BY SoN-IN-LAW OF
 MRS. VIM. GREY VERMILYE

Harrisburg, Pa, Dec. 29.-Mrs. VII liam Grey Fermllye left Harrisburg late today for New York, but declined to make any statement as to her plans.
 Major Baines her son-in-law, to- night issued this statement regarding various reports in the Vermilye case:
 Having been pressed by numerous newspapers for a statement in regard to the Dr. Vermlye case the following are all the facts so far as I know them; Mrs. Vermilye was formerly the wife of B. r. Zindel, whom she divorced on July 2, 1894, at Chicago, Ills. On May 3, 1895. she married Dr. Vermilye at Hoboken, N. J., with whom she has lived ever since in Brooklyn, N. Y. Mrs. Vermilye has been visiting with my home at Har- risburg for tine last few months while Dr. Vermilye was engaged in govern nnent service. The relations between Dr. and Mrs. Vermilye have always been pleasant so far as I know. Mrs. Vermilye left for New York city to- day, but her future plans are un- known to me. Numerous sensational reports have been published concern ing Mrs. Vermilye's private life. all of which know are without founda- tion and untrue"

Hen dron, agent here for the Holland American steamship line, filed suit in the United States district court to- day to compel the Stevedore and Langshoremen's Benevolent society to show why union longshoremen re- fused to unload the fertilizer, cargo from the steamship Amsteldijk.

LOCAL CONTRACTORS MARK TIME

With the midst of the l1ofaday sea son at hand and the proximity of the new year with it's stimulus to build- ing activity, local contractors are marking time The weather has been such as to render outdoor work if11- practicable and for the most part To- cal builders are engaged in finishing up inside jobs.
 Fire Marshal Howard L. Stanton reports that the lack of activity is very noticeable in his department. He has on file only one application which has not been granted yet. It is from Jeremiah J. Lynch for permission to erect q one and half story. brick, stone and wood, one family house on Raymond Place. The application gives the dimensions as. 20x26.
 The alterations to the house at 149 Sachem street which is being remod- eled for use as a store by the owner Paul Banas are nearly complete. A Shingled addition, two and half stor- ies high and about ten feet deep has been added to the front of the build ing. Large plate glass windows have been set in the first floor. Partitions have been erected and only the fin- ishing touches are needed to com plete the job.
 The three story building on North Main street at the corner of Ninth is well along. During the week prac- tically all the roof was laid and the carpenters now have only interior work to do, The building is to be oc- cupied by the Norwich Wholesale Grocery company when it is com pleted.
 Outside work on the garage on West Town street is nearly completed A wooden addition, a story and a hall high has been erected and plate glass | windows have been set in the front of the building.

being held up. although considerable progress is reported from some sec tions of the invaded regions. This progress, although encouraging, is not regarded by business men as sufficient to warrant the expectation that France will be enabled at an early date to resume expectations on & scale suffi- cient to materially affect the exchange rate. The French still are counting on some sort of international arrange ment that will increasa the value of the franc.
 With capital and labor both ready to do their bit" said Raoul Peret, chairman of the appropriation com mittee of the chamber of deputies, to The Associated Press, ."aH that re- mains to enable us to get firmly on our feet is for the world to give our money something like an equal show in all markets" French observers re- gard it as extremely important that France shall be enabled to purchase raw materials on an equitable basis. nav materials on an equitable basis. They say this is shown by the fact that before the war three -f1fthS of her exported goods were manufactured objects and that this proportion must be increased in the future to make up for the loss of the market for wines and spirits in America and Russia, which formerly constituted the inn portant share of the total of French exports.
 Revenue from tourists. which was potent aid toward maintaining the equilibrium of the franc until the war, has not yet given the expected help. Indications are seen of an influx Of foreign visitors early in the new year but present disposition in official cir cles seems to be not to wait for it's de- velopment but to take measures to improve all needs independently of this source of income.
 Economists and f1nanciers who have weighed all the elements of the situa ton admit that France still is in a most difficult situation, but see indi- cations of great improvement before the end of annther year.

Hartford, Conn.,, Dec. 2s.-Saioons in Hartford closed today following a request from Chief of Police Garrett J.

SAME POLICY IN CANADA;
 PUBLIC WILL HAVE TO PAY"

Toronto, Ont, Dec. 2s-The consum- CT will pay more for bread while the miller and baker will lose nothing by the advance in price to S2.S0 a bushel for Manitoba wheat, ordered yester- day by the Canadian wheat board ac- cording to statement today by He'd ley Shaw, a Toronto miller. Mark Brodin, president of the Canada Bread Company, announced last night that Toronto prices for bread would be in creased soon from II to 12 1-2 cents for 24-ounce loaf.
 Wheat now is worth more than the price in the United States, which is higher than the $2.80 a bushel here, Mr. Shaw said. "The millers will have to raise the price of flour. Then the bakers will raise the price of bread
 "The public will have to pay?" he was asked.
 "Yes; the public seems to have lots of money" he answered.

France Faces New Year With Confidence

Paris, Dec. 2e.-France will begin the new year with far greater confi- dence than the last. This is in spite of formidable handicaps such as the balance of trade running aganist her at the rate of about 1.501, 900 900 francs a month, about 50 per cent deprecia- ton of the exchange value of the franc and the consequent difficulty of procuring raw materials and machines urgently needed for reconstruction.
 . Frances renewed confidence is de- rived directly from the result of the recent elections. These are regarded here as having definitely stabilized in- ternal politics, ended all danger of revolutionary agitation for some time to come and brought about a better attitude by capital and labor toward the immense effort before France.
 Money is forthcoming for invest meI1ts in anything that promises sta- bility. While investments in short term treasury bonds are continuing at the rate of nearly 1000 000, 900 francs a month, there is plenty of money for industrial and commercial enterprises and long-term loans.
