DOLLAR IN BERLIN
 WORTH 6,45o MARKS

BERLIN, January 5-Be-lin's finan- cial forecasters went far astray when they declared that the Bourse was to see a black Monday, following on the heels of Saturdays sensational spurt by the mark in New York. Instead of the predicted panic in exchanging dealings, steadiness was the rule.
 New York advices that the dollar had touched 5000 marks resulted in a crowding of the Bourse chamber at it's opening yesterday, and the pessi- mists were routed when the first rate was announced at 5.950. AS the day progressed the mark gradually lost much of the ground gained and the close saw the dollar back to 6,450, put ting a damper on a large part of the earlier enthusiasm among those who believed substantial relief from the high prices was in sight.
 Holders of stocks and foreign mon eys showed no haste to dispose of them; there was a general tendency to exercise reserve. It was expected that Wednesday, which is the next day on which there will be Bourse trading, will reveal whether Sundays gloom forebodings were justified in holding up the specter that there would be repetition of December l of last year, when the Bourse became panic stricken on account of the talk of a moratorium.

SHIPS FIGHTING |CE
 O|V LAKE SUPERIOR
SEEK TO CHEAT WINTER

1. CHICAGO, January 6-Battlng foot tby foot through towering seas and icy spray the men who go down to the sea in ships are fighting an epochal battle across the icy wastes of Lake Superior to keep navigation open far beyond it's usual time and bring down the lakes the last cargo of the year. 1 Already the fight has claimed it's toll of lives and before the last ship has been accounted for-or been giv- en up for lost-that toll may be far greater
 { Nearly a dozen died a few days ago when a Canadian steamer was dashed ashore within stones throw of safe, ty at the mouth of Portage lake ship canal.
 1 Twenty-seven more were added to the death toll when survivors of the tug reliance, wrecked last Wednesday on Lizard island, reached Sault Ste. Marie after almost incredible hard ships.
 | Navigation on the upper lakes usual ly closes December l. This year it was decided to keep the waterways open until December 15, because the coal and rail strikes had cut down the coal shipped to the Northwest and de- layed the movement of grain.
 As a result nine big freighters load ed with grain-$2S,000 worth of ships and cargo-are fighting their way down Lake Superior toward that graveyard of gallant vessels, White Fish bay, trying to win through to Buffalo for winter storage. ] In Mud Lake, part of the St. Mary's river, another big fleet is icebound, waiting for the arrival of the nine which left Fort William Ont, three days ago before trying. with the as sistance of ice breaking tugs, to win past Detour to the open waters ot Lake Huron.
 At Eagle Harbor and Grand liarais, White Fish point, and Detour. Alpena, Mackinac island and ManisdQue Lav- al raido operators are keeping vigil, guiding the freighters through the night with radio compass signals, and waiting for the calls for help which may come. .. The story of the fate of the tug Re. liance, owned by the Superior Paper company of Sault Ste. Marie, was told yesterday when seven survivors reach ed the Soo. '''..'' ':.
 Five days ago the tug with crew of fourteen and twenty-two passengers was dashed to pieces on the rocks of lonely Lizard island, seventy-five mile north of Point Aux Pins. the western entrance to St. Mary's rive", and 12 miles from the mainland. The captain and twenty-seven men took to one boat and MT. and Mrs. J. Harten, the cooks, and seven others, took to the other.
 The captains boat has not been ac- counted for, but the other after drift ing several hours in the storm, final ly was blown ashore on the Ontario mainland, eighty-five miles north of Sault Ste. Marie.

MILLIONS BET

Everybody Bets.

LONDON. June 4.-on the occa,
sion of the Derby" Engiand's most
popular horse race. which will be run
over the famous EPSON Downs. Juno

than on any other sporting event in
the world. II is estimated thai on this
one ace s25. 900. 900 will be turned
over.
This actual wagering on the race
surpasses anything which takes place
on several of the other big races here.
1t is an occasion when nearly every
one makes a bet, tho amounts varying
from the office boys twopencc to tho
wealthy mans thousand pounds.
But by far the greater amount Of
money involved is in the sweepstakes
which are organized in connection
with the event. Every office through
out the land has its list. and here
again the amounts invested vary ac-
cording to the means of the partici-
pants.
There are also several sweepstakes
open to the public. the most popular
Of these being the Calcutta Sweep.
which offers about $4,000 for the
person who draws the winning horse.
Then there is the London Stock Ex-
change Sweep with It's first prize of
s125 900. and the Dublin Hospital
Sweep which pays $50. 900 to the luck,

snapped up Immediately they ven IN
sale. They are now at a premium and
are only ~ottainable by paying enor-
nous sums to those who happened to
be lucky enough TO secure them when
first issued.
The gambling spirit is confined not
only to people living IN England. for
Americans in different parts of the
world have hown that they too love n
little flutter. hence their friends In
London and elsewhere have been in
UNDATED with requests to purchase as
many tickets as possible on their be-
half.
One American woman is said to
have secured tickets for all the bigger
sweepstakes and should fortune smile
upon her she may win nearly $1,000
