GERMANS CHECKED

On June g.. 1918, the German ad-
vance was finally checked by Amer
lean troops in the Veuilly Woods. Ac-
cording to reports from the front,
enemy losses were very severe due to
advantageous positions held by Am
erican troops and the whitening fire
of machine guns and "75's."
On the French front, Germans
were making slight gains west of
Nouvron and Fontenoy, but French
troops started an advance of their
own and retook Faverolles, north of
the Ourcq.
German submarine warfare against
United States shipping off the east
ern coast accounted for IL ships up
to June 3, it was announced. In ad-
dition to this activity, the subs sank
mines off the Delaware Capes and
accounted for the sinking of the
tanker, Herbert L. Pratt.
The Belgian foreign minister,
Charles de Broqueville, resigned and
was replaced by M. Cooreman, form
err president of the House of Repre-
sentatives.

TOUCHDOWN!

TOUCHDOWN!
New York, June Sits high time
for Professor Baker to organize a
roofing section for his famous the
atrical workshop at Yale.
Sis-boom- bahS should be echoing
along Manhattans gay white way for
those two lads who carried a play
down the field from New Haven to
Hollywood. They were blocked at
Broadway, but broke through to a
little theater in Greenwich Village;
blocked again by the cops, they
tackled the law on the five-yard line,
took a Slight loss but finally won for
dear old Yale.
Hollywood took the movie rights
and the young heroes will not have
to work their way through college; or
through life for several years, for
that matter.
They are Albert Metz and George
Sklar, and though sons of Eli, still
were old enough to have observed the
tangled ramifications of New York's
political intrigueries. So they wrote
"a whitehot play, "Merry-Go-Round,"
wherein an innocent lad went to
tragic death thanks to monumenting
inducements. The drama was put
on by Prof. Baker; nobody on Broad
way wanted to touch it, fearful of
finger burns; an independent pro-
duction made critics cheer; an effort
at uptown production brought police
interference, on a Slight technically,
thus giving some strength to their
thesis; finally the play opened.
Now Universal has bought it for a
neat sum. And if enough rooters
gather at And Street and Broadway,
some producers might hear the shout
ing and gain courage.

Sometimes I wonder if it is any use
trying to teach the average wise
acre layman how to keep we'll.
Here is the reason why:
My dear DR.. Brady:
l read an article by you to the
effect that we should stop cater
ing to the Whims of neurasthen-
les and stop pampering and cod
ding them.
I am unfortunately victim of
nerves -. in my thirtieth year
and can only look forward to a
trail of misery ;. believe 1
am the most nervous miserable
person living etc., etc.
Yours respectfully,
The correspondent describes in typ
ical detail lot of symptoms which
any of us might trump up and fret
about if we cared to concentrate our
minds upon OURSELVES.
But what discourages me in a let
ter like this is the obvious insus-
ceptihility of people who choose to
call themselves "neurasthenic" to en-
Either they do not UNI
derstand the plaineSt language, such
as I used in the article this cor
respondent quotes, or they forsee a
harder existence for themselves if
such an attitude becomes popular
and with that prospect they become
indignant and wish to have me pun
ished or censured for my utter lack
or sympathy and all that sort of
thing.
Notice how this correspondent seeks
to divert suspicion to his nerves. 1t
is all his bad nerves, you must ac-
knowledge, and never by any chance
let on you suspect he may be just
naturally a selfish, dishonest person
demanding the indulgence of every
body else in order that he may get
by without shouldering his share of
responsibility for anything.
These grown-up "neurotics" or
"neurasthenics" or bundles OF
nerves." as they necessarily call
themselves. are just pampered. hu-
mored. coddled, spoiled, nasty-dispo-
sitioned children, and everything has
been made so soft for them in child
hood that they refuse to grow out OF
it and assume the independence OF
grown men and women. That's what
the alibi of nerves" is. If we are
to give sympathy to anybody we
should give it to the self-sacrificing
sisters, the kind-hearted brothers, the
indulgent parents, the faithful chill
dren who put up with the Selfishness
and Miniature of these nervous
wrecks"
The nerve of this neurasthenic writ
ing to me for help and deliberately
quoting the gist of my teaching as
tho to show me how contemplate he
thinks my ideas on the subject are
The way to neurasthenia is always
the Same-duck, dodge, evade, pre-
tend, make believe, play the little
snob, try to make people think you
are better than the common run OF
folk. put on airs, in short be every
thing but honest with yourself and
with your fellows.
Notice how these big crooks of high
life invariably suffer with q com
plete nervous breakdown" when they
realize the game is up? They're as
genuinely victims of bad nerves az
any little weasel is who trumps ur
his nerves as an alibi when he Il
caught sucking eggs that do not be-
long to him.
Don't tell me you have bad nerves
you hypocrite. I've heard that one
before.

STOCKS IN SLUMP :
AFTEREARLY GAINS
Dividend Uncertainties Un-
settle Market-NeW Lows
Are Recorded.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, June 24-Unsettled by
the prospect of further dividend reduc-
tions and ommissions. and disturbed by
a recrudesence Of banking troubles in
the Middle West, today's stock market
broke sharply. For brief period at the
opening 1t showed signs of strength, but
thereafter prices declined slowly, but
steadily
During the course of the day new
lows for the bear market were regis
tered by such important stocks as Atchi-
son, American Can, Allied Chemical,
American Telephone, United States
Steel common and preferred, and In
ternational Harvester The whole list
was heavy. Auburn Auto, which. how
ever, Is not typical, was down 10 points
at one time. The close was not far
above the low.
Opening prices were generally higher.
rejecting the cut in the bank rate, but
that phase did not last long Persistent
selling cropped out. first in American
Can, then in Atchison and next in
United States Steel, and the whole list
turned downward. not for any large
loss, but enough to produce number
Of new lows
Dull ftdlIO1Q ana AInSTl-
can Can directors meet next week for
dividend action. As far as Atchison Is
concerned, the Street is looking for an
omission Of the dividend on the COM
mon stock. 1t Is estimated that the
road is not currently earning fixed
charges, but that is somewhat mislead-
ing. The bulk Of the income is pro-
duced in the second half Of the year,
and. Allowin1 for seasonal variations,
there ought to be ample margin over
and above interest requirements.
This weakness in Atchison had a bad
effect on the other rails and they sold
of, particularly Union Pacific. At the
same time the decline was kept within
narrow limits and too much significance
should not be attached to a reactionary
movement at this stage.
American Can went to q new low,
also expressive Of doubt over the
dividend, although the worst that was
predicted III this case was only a re-
duction in tha disbursement. The selling
spread to Steel common and preferred,
with both going into new low ground,
the latter of nearly points before
noon. The best informed opinion IS
still that the Steel directors will pay
the regular rate on the senior issue.
Presumably there Is q large short
interest In this quarter.

COTTON AND WHEAT
EXPORTS INCREASE
Figures for First Quarter
Show Notable Gains in
Sales Abroad.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER,


Two leading products of the soil
cotton and wheat-ran sharply counter
to the general trend of export trade
during the first quarter of 1882 and
made notable gains as compared with
the same period year ago.
American cotton was exported in
larger quantities to nearly all Of the
principal textile manufacturing coun-
tries, particularly to japan, China and
India. A compilation Of the trade by
the Chamber Of Commerce of the United
States showed that shipments of that
commodity amounted to more than J.
SOC. .000, 900 pounds, valued at S109, ,839,-
900, or a quantitative gain Of 79 per
cent and a gain in value of 19 per cent.
Short Indian and Chinese cotton
crops, together with the low price" the
chamber said, accounted in a large
measure for the heavy purchasing by
Far Eastern countries"
The gain in wheat exports in the
first quarter was even more impressive
than in cotton. In the first three
months we exported 14,471 900 bushels
of wheat, gain Of Alb per cent above
the quantity shipped year ago, while
the value Of S8,878,000 for the ship
ments was 289 per cent above that for
the first quarter Of 1881.
The largest shipments Of wheat were
made to China and Brazil as part OF
transactions of the Federal Farm Board,
although most of the chief European
customers also bought literally.
American export trade as a whole
during the quarter had total value of
s459, ! SO 900, which was 35 per cent
smaller than for the corresponding
period of last year The chamber said
this trade was adversely affected by
reduced purchasing power abroad and
by the extension of barriers to trade,
such as the French quota system, the
British tariffs, deprecated foreign cur
rencies and exchange restrictions"
