sTEINMETz IS DEAD
Electricity Wizard Is Suddenly
Taken by Heart Failure.
Expires at His Home in Schenectady.
N. Y, After Physical Breakdown
Following a Trip to Coast.

Schenectady, N. Y.-Dr. Charles
Proteus Steinmetz, electrical wizard,
died at his home here of a physical
breakdown due to trip to the Pacific
coast, from which he recently re-
turned. The attending physician said
breakfast was being served the patient
when suddenly his heart seemed to
give way and he died Immediately.
The American career of Doctor
Steinmetz had its beginning in New
York in 1889, where, penniless and
able to speak very little English, he
arrived from Zurich, Switzerland. He
was accompanied by young American
who had been his fellow student at
the Zurich polytechnicium.
One side of Steinmetz's face was
badly swollen as the result of trif1ing
illness aboard ship and the immigra-
ton authorities at Ellis island refused
at first to allow him to enter the coun-
try. He was sent to the detention
pen" and was only released by the
eloquence and persuasion of his Amer
lean companion. A few years later he
became naturalized citizen.
At the time of his death Doctor
Steinmetz was regarded not only as
one of the foremost authorities on cleo
trical engineering but one of the great
est mathematicians in the world.
Strangely enough, one of his great diff
ficulties as a child was in learning the
multiplication table.

OFFERS EUROPE
HELP OF U. S.
Secretary Hughes to Act on Rep
arations if All Allies viii Ask
for 1t.
GOOD OFFICES ON NEW TERMS
Says All Allies Must Take Part in
the Discussion if Real Solution of
German Problem Is to
Result.

Paris.-The French government re-
piled to the British note suggesting an
international conference to investigate
PREPARATIONS, with the United States
participating, by accepting the plan,
provided the board of experts is APP
proved by the Preparations commission
which was vested with the problem
under the treaty of Versailles.
Washington.-In response to an Off
cial inquiry by the British government
Secretary of State Hughes has in
formed Great Britain that the United
States is willing to participate in an
advisory economic conference for the
purpose of considering Germany's ca
pacity to pay reparations and methods
of effecting such payments.
The cooperation is guaranteed only
on the understanding that France and
all other powers directly interested in
German reparations concur in the plan
and participate in the conference. If
France or any other interested power
should not approve of a Preparations
survey and refuse to participate the
United States would determine Wheth-
.er. it would participate only after ma
ture deliberation.
Great Britain is revealed as putting
forth a desperate effort to halt the dis
memberment of Germany and restore
the status quo with Germany and
France in agreement on the payment
of Preparations. To this end Great
Britain seeks the aid of the United
States.
That there had been formal ex-
change of views between London and
Washington on the European situa-
ton was disclosed by Secretary Hughes
few hours after former Prime Min
lister Lloyd George had called on him
and lunched with President Coolidge
and told the press that only the United
States can bring about the solution OF
Europe's problems. Mr.. Lloyd George
declined, however, to comment on the
Hughes note.
AS a elimination of the subtle drive
of the canny Welshman to induce the
United States to take strong hand
In European affairs the American re-
ply to the London sounding falls short
of what he had hoped for, though he
regards it as a step in the right direc-
ton from the British point of view.

RETRENCHMENT
IN MANY LINES
Duquesne Steel Plant Reduces
Working Force; Copper
Mines Cut Pay.
FILM FIRM SHUTS DOWN
Many Workers Are Dismissed at
Seven Merchant Mills in Pittsburgh
Distrct-copper Mines in Montana
to Cut Forces.

Chicago. = Retrenchment programs
were announced Friday in the steel,
copper and motion picture industries.
Notices have been posted in six of the
seven merchant mills of the Duquesne
steel plant, one of the largest operated
by the United States Steel corpora
ton, to the effect that one shift of
men will be eliminated. This will re-
duce the employment by one-thlrd in
these mills and is the first real re-
trenchment by the United States Steel
corporation.
Fourteen thousand men are affected
by pay cut of so cents a day posted
at copper mines at Butte, Anaconda
and Great Falls, Mont. The cut ap-
plies to all wage earners.
A general reduction in operating
forces in the copper industry is con-
sidered a possibility, in addition to the
wage decrease. High cost of produc-
tion and low metal prices are given
as the reason for retrenchment The
announced reduction is to take effect
November /.
For the first four months of this
year the copper export association re
ceived an average of 1615 cents a
pound for the metal, but subsequent
reductions have brought the average
price up to October 10 to 1893 cents.
Adolph Zukor of the Famous Play
ers-Lasky corporation has announced
that both the eastern and western
moving picture plants of his company
will be shut down as soon as possible
on account of high production costs.
Gloria Swanson and Thomas Meighan
will be kept at work only until they
have finished their present schedule OF
pictures, when they will cease produc-
ton. The decision is said to affect
more than sixteen Lasky companies in
different studios.

Germany Asks the Allies to
Ease Up on Reparati0nS

Paris.-Germany has asked the al
lies to re-examine the nations re-
sources and capacity to pay and to
permit the Berlin government to ex-
plain measures to be taken to
balance the budget and to stabilize
money. Germany frankly recognized
it's obligations to pay indemnity. 1t
pleaded the impossibility of continu-
ing the schedule of payments now ow-
ing to the economic and financial col
lapse resulting from the occupation
of the Ruhr and depreciation to zero
of it's paper money.

Industries in the Ruhr Are
Shut bv German Owners

Essen-The French are faced with
situation fraught with grave pos
sibiIities as result of the decision
of the German industrialists to close
the factories and mines in the Ruhr
rather than to deliver reparations in
kind and coal to France without pay.
At meetings in Cologne, Coblenz and
Bonn the industrialists, headed by
Hugo SHINES, agreed to shut up shop
during the next fortnight.
