the means OF creating the necessary

American investors absorbed more than
two hundred million dollars of British
Government bonds brought out IN 1900
to finance the Boer war. which began
in October, 1892. In the same year our
markets took 100000 600 OF German

Economic Adjustment.

Judge Gary's hopeful view of the out

reassuring influence on the stock mar
ket. II remains to be seen how accurate
ly he Judged the situation which Is gov
erned by prices largely above the pre-
war average. The reductions agreed 20
will bring out urgent business. but the
test will come after the immediate re-
quirements have been provided Tor. The
Government is apparently In duty bound
to accept the new price basis for GER

to the large needs of tho Railroad Ad-
ministration and tho United States Fleet
Corporation remains TO be eeen There
has been somewhat broader demand
for structural steel in connection with
the moderate revival in the building In
dustry that has taken place. But the
inquiry for material has not been strong
enough to indicate a definite market
trend. Industry in general Is making
steady progress In the nationwide re-
adjustment from a war basis to q peace
basis. Much OF the process Is auto

must follow the law OF supply and de-
mand. 1t is apparent that no other

The spirited recovery In Stock Ex-
change prices last week after several
days OF profit taking sales reflected a
well settled belief that the early selling

was emerging gradually from the series
or financial entanglements growing out
OF the war and the curious railroad
predicament. The demonstrat ton gave
iresh evidence of the inherent strength

! 4 factor OF much influence toward
the close was the news that the in.-

provided for, and that TIE Director
General had determined TO carry for
ward as much improvement and main
tenance work as could be financed. This
relieved the uneaSiness caused by the
previous order stopping all additions
and improvements costing more than
$1,000. The developments were taken
to mean that the railroads would be
supplied with sufficient funds to enable
them to procure the equipment necss-
sary 10 handle the largely increased
traffic expected 20 develop as coon rs

apparent also from the character OF

SILENT TRAGEDY AT
PARK
GRAND RAPIDS GIRL Sue
CUMBS TO HEART DIS
EASE IN WATER

To drown without struggle or a
single intimation of helplessness
seemed unusual Monday afternoon to
the group of bathers who took the
body of Miss Esther Hanson of Grand
Rapids from the water at Rothschild
park bathing beach. Miss Hanson,
prepared to swim, dove from the pier
and soon afterwards was seen float
ing. Her head, however, was inclined
backyard until it was almost totally
covered with water. Friends FASTENED
to her assistance and discovered that
she was dead. Heart failure has
since been declared the reason, Miss
Hanson having been subject to
heart trouble since she had the in,
fiuenZa last year and later sleeping
sickness.
Attending Convention
Miss Hanson was in Wausau at
tending the convention of the Ogema
District Luther League. Many of
those who attended the picnic of that
group at Rothschild park yesterday
went swimming. 1t was thought by
the bathers that Miss Hanson had
drowned, and lungmotor was OBJ
tanned with all possible haste. No
water was drawn from the lungs.
Coroner w. c. Meilahn investigated
but found the death wholly due to
natural conditions. The young lady is
survived by her father, Martin Han
son, two sisters, Alma and Agnes, and
two brothers, George and Arthur, all
OF Grand Rapids. She was employed
by the Johnson and Hill department
store. The body was taken to Grand
Rapids this morning by her uncle, Mr..
Lindahl, who came to Wausau Tues
day morning. Miss Hanson was an
active worker in the Swedish Evan
gelical Lutheran church and will be
buried from that church in Grand
Rapids.

OF POLICE

The grocery and merchandise store
Of Carl Biiese, $50 Scott street, was
broken into last Sunday afternoon
and number of articles in addition
to $3.50 were taken. No one had been
in the building during the afternoon
and the upper floor, which until re-
Gently was occupied by family, was
vacated. The rear door was found
broken open by Mr.. Bliese the follow
ing morning, apparently having been
smashed with clubs
A pair of trousers, some shoestrings
and beer which had been placed in the
ice box, were gone. Nothing else was
disturbed, according to the proprie-
tor. That the robbery is the work of
youngsters is the belief of the police
department. The manner in which
the rear door of the shop was smashed
indicates the inexperience of the
thieves Every effort will be made by
the police department, according to
Thomas Malone, chief, to locate those
guilty of the robbery.
