OF. justice.
Washington, Jan. 28.-Ignatius T.
Lincoln, officials Of the department
Of justice said tonight, was>taken in
to custody at the request Of the i'm
migration service of the department
of labor for surreptitious entry into
the United States in November last.
Officials said that Lincoln had made
several attempts to return legally to
this country after his deportation
from England to Germany, but was
denied the necessary permission.
Records of the department of JUS
tice show that he came to this coun-
try prior to the entry of the United
States into the World war and after
he had been accused of spying in
England. He was arrested in New
York City at the request of the Brit
ish government on a charge of for
gerry and in August, 1915, was held
for extradition to Great Britain. He
escaped from a United States deputy
marshal in January, 1912, however,
and was not captured until three
months later. He was then extradit-
ed to England, where he was given
a prison, sentence Of three years.
At the expiration Of his prison SEN
tence, the records show, he was de-
ported from England to. Germany,
where, it is alleged, he became in
terested. in numerous revolutionary
movements.
Lincoln was born in Hungary but
later became a n~aturalized British
subject and a member of parliament.

The Drew Company is now featuring the Arch
Rest Shoes. ;: Why? By careful study and long
years of shoe business they have succeeded in
building a shoe that means more. comfort and
less feet trouble. The Arch Rest is not a great
Shoe, but as it's name. implies it is a help, a rest
to the arch suffering in the first stages of weak
ness. BY employing it's help when the first signs
of weakness appear, many women have develop
ed strong, normal arches, which without this aid
WOULD have gone down with the consequent ills.
The Arch Rest-while corrective in effect is
a stylish Shoe, built upon Standard lasts. It is
really a high grade Irregular Shoe" with this
great advantage added. The beauty and grace
of the lines are not affected, unless perhaps the
general effect is improved, for the perfectly fit
ting, comfortable Shoe looks best, because of the
increased strength, where most needed, through
the: use the bridged shank which acts as a*back-
bone and holds the arch in it's natural position,
the Shoe fits better andsconseuuently wears long
err. This strength and construction Of the Arch
Rest allows outside muscles of the foot sufficient
action to keep them supple and will produce a
live pair of feet, not a dormant pedal whose
potential faculties cease to function.

BANKS HERE REDUCE
LOANS TO GERMANS
Collapse of Mark Causes Shut
down on Further Credit
Extensions.

Banking interests in the United States
are shaitting down sharply on the ex-
tension of credits to German interests
in Germany, even on loans that are we'll
secured. This is the latest development
here in connection with the precarious
financial sityation in Germany and the
almost complete collapse Of German cur
rency.
Some loans are still being made, II
was learned yesterday. but they are few
and small, Current open credits are es-
at the present time to aggre-
gate approximately $50. 100000, which
represents a reduction OF about 25 per
cent from the figures at which they
stood when tie recent meeting OF the
international bankers committee in
Paris broke UP.
The tremendous decline of the German
mark in the foreign exchange market In
the last fortnight and more has resulted
in some heart-breaking losses. according
to bankers, but even at these levels they
declare there are some buyers to be
at the present time. they say, are mostly
foreigners, the Americans having pur-
chased some German currency rather
heavily when it was around the two
cent level. Many customers Of the larger
banks are besieging the offices Of their
bankers for Information of affairs in
Germany and asking advice as to what
should be done in their business rela-
tions with German interests.
j. P. Morgan Ii not planning to go
into Germany to study the situation and
endeavor to find way out, as has been
reported. Mr.. Morgan at present Is In
England making the rounds of several
golf courses and has no intention what
ever or going to Germany, 1t was said
here yesterday.
Private advfces received by bankers In
New York Indicate that there is much
social unrest in Germany as well as
political. The spectacles of constantly
soaring wages and living costs. together
wth-the persistent decline in the value
of the mark abroad, has so charged the
social situation with dynamite that bank
ers fear the economic collapse may bring
on revolution, they declared. The prac-
tical collapse of the German financial
situation, 1t was said, was not unex-
pected in banking circles here, but 1t
came about two months ahead Of schcd-
ule. News dispatches, bankers said, do
not exaggerate affairs in Germany as
depicted in their private advices. They
still maintain that any Improvement In
the situation must rest entirely upon
Frances policy and modification Of
her demands.
Foreign exchanges were not as active
nor as weak yesterday as on preceding
days when marks went day after day
to new low levels, finally getting under
nineteen hundredths of cent. Foreign
bonds, however. reflected the precarious
financial situation abroad and many Of
them broke sharply. The French ana
Belgium issues were especially weak
falling one and half to two points
below the final prices of Saturday.

Germany's admission to membership in

The Government and the Reichsbank

cuse it of bad judgment that this effort
was necessary because the present de-
preciated mark provokes wave Of

The Governments embarrassment Is in

printing presses. owing to strike.
One financier confessed to THE New
YORK HERALD correspondent that he
was puzzled as to the real cause of the
sudden slump, because it did not begin
until week after the assassination of
DR.. Walter Rathenau and was not pro-
voked by any particular internal politi-
cal disaster.
The lack Of newspapers here has
opened the way to wild rumors. which
have contributed to the general nervous
state of the German people. Political
murders and general strikes are reported
hourly. The Socialists assert that Ger
man nationalist manufacturers aided the
fall of the mark. hoping thereby to
effect the fall of the Government. But
business circles ridicule that rumor, at
the same time admitting that they are
not inclined to give the Government ma
terial support on account of the prevail
