Untitled Orders
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Commerce Department said
In a statement today that many
millions of dollars of orders placed
by Brazil in the now belligerent
countries have not yet been filled"
Reporting data from its Rio de
Janeiro attache, the department said
the fact was an indication of the
increased business in Latin America
which may come to the United
States as a result of the European
war.
The statement added, Large num-
bers of local distributors Cin BraziD
of German, Brazilian and other
nationalities are applying for Amer
lean representations to replace lines
of merchandise which they believe
will not be forthcoming from Europe
during the period of the war.
Another department report said
that North Ireland flax exporters
were finding it impossible tempo
rarily to ship flax to the United
States on orders received since the
war, because of British regulations
A. v. Dye, London attache of the
department and former director OF
its Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, sent in a report dis
couraging any American business
men contemplating establishment OF
branches in England to import
goods England needs during the
war. The British, he explained, are
restricting such imports to old
established firms.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-United
States Government loans rose
sharply in small transactions today
while the corporate section of the
bond market travelled an uneven
course.
Although trading proceeded at
slow pace up to noon, the gains in
the Federals ran as high as 1892 of
a point. Only few issues, however,
attracted much attention
Foreign government dollar loans
showed gains in a thin market.
German, japanese and Cuban issues
were the main beneficiaries of the
rising trend.
Bond traders were marking time,
watching foreign developments. The
lack of clarity in the European war
situation was regarded by Wall
Street observers as the chief re-
tarding influence to greater trading
activities.
Among corporates showing rising
tendencies were International Paper

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-Operations
in the steel industry for the current
week will advance IL points to 90.3
per cent of capacity, highest since
the week of May "a, 1887, when OUT
put was scheduled at 81 per cent.
This compared with 886 per cent
last week.
A month ago production was at
the rate of 1913 per cent of capacity,
while year ago it was 49.4 per cent.
CLEVELAND, Oct. is R).-A two
point rise pushed steel production
to 891a per cent of capacity last
week as operations approached the
available limit, the magazine Steel
said.
Delays will be encountered In
engaging remaining capacity and
subsequent gains will be reduced
by temporary shutdowns of some
furnaces for REPAIRS" the weekly
review of the steel industry re-
ported
Buying has dropped off because
most large consumers are covered
for the remainder of the year, and
mills can accept little additional
business in most products for fourth
quarter delivery.
Few orders have been placed to
protect first-quarter needs, pending
establishment of flrst-quarter prices
which, Steel said, are complicated
by the various factors which may
influence future production COSTS"
Prices will be announced soon, how
ever, and higher quotations on
leading products appear certain"
with a S3-a-ton increase already
made on reinforcing bars.
A reaction in scrap markets
lowered Steels composite SO cents
last week to $2l.83.
Tin plate production reached
peak for the year, advancing 2
points to 90 per cent.

Foreign Exchange

NEW YORK. Oct. 16 UP.-The free
market for the pound sterling was en-
livened today by rapid .runup Of nearly
cents, which carried the currency to
around 81 401.
Exchange dealers said the move ap-
peared to be in response to more peace
rumors, which included unverihed reports
that the Italian Ambassador to Great Brit
ain would submit to Britain a peace pro-
posal from Mussolini Another story heard
in exchange circles was that the Scanda-
navian countries were drafting COM
munication to President Roosevelt. asking
action by the United States to stop the
war.
The pound softened little after the
early climb, retreating to a level Just
under the S4 mark, but holding some gain
over Saturday. The franc moved UP With
sterling. Other leading currencies were
narrow.

Tightness in supplies Of staple fiber

Bushmen of Australia

DARWIN, AUSTRALIAN an
cient group of cave temples contain
ing primitive paintings and grisly
native relics has been discovered
in the Australian bush, about 300
miles from Darwin.
In one of the caves, described as
lone Of the most primitive art gal
leries in the world" were two enor-
nous figures in red, white and
black, representing king and
queen.
Each cave, he said, had small al
tars and what undoubtedly were sac
rificial stones. Around these are
strewn hundreds of sharp, we'll
fashioned stone knives, spearheads
and axheads Of material not found
in the immediate neighborhood.
The caves contained many relics,
including ancient skulls, shinbones
and smaller human remains.

Texas U. Acquires New
Worlds Oldest Volume

AUSTIN.-A copy of "Doctrina
Breve," Oldest book printed in
America, now rests in the Univer-
sity Of Texas library.
The volume, which Librarian DON
aid Coney says is one Of three in
the United States, is a catechism
printed in Mexico in 1543 and 1544
by Bishop Juan de Zumarraga,
whose printing press was the first
brought to the New world. Zunar-
raga had printed books in America
three years earlier, but none Of
those are known to exist now.
The Spanish volume bound in
heavy Spanish leather decorated
with gold tooling, is in an excellent
condition according to DR.. Carlos E.
Castaneda, Latin-American librari-
an at the university.
''Doctrina Breve" is included in
a collection of $50 volumes and 50,-
900 pages of manuscripts obtained
by purchase from heirs Of Joaquin
Garcia Icazbalceta, noted Mexican
historian and collector.
Among the manuscripts is a let
ter from fernando Cortez to En-
peror Charles v of Spain, written on
October IS. 1545.

ECLIPSES OF
SUN AND MOON
Astronomer Also Predicts
MeteOric Showers in the
Year 1889
WILL BE ONLY PARTIAL

STON, ILL.-P artial
eclipses of the sun and moon and
two particularly bright meteoric
showers will be visible in the United
States during the year 1899, ac-
cording to DR.. Oliver Lee, head of
the department Of astronomy at
Northwestern university.
There will be two eclipses of the
sun and two of the moon during the
year" Doctor Lee said. "An an
nualar eclipse of the sun on April
l9, beginning around $3.50 in the
morning, will be partial in the Unit
ed States. An annualar eclipse is
one occurring while the moon is so
far away from the earth that a rim
Of the sun is visible even at the
moment of maximum eclipse
About midnight between October
~ and 29 there will be a partial
eclipse of the moon, Doctor Lee
said, which will be visible through
out the Americas. A total eclipse of
the moon on May will be visible in
the eastern hemisphere, and a total
eclipse of the sun will occur on Oc-
tober IL. and will be seen as par
tlal eclipse from western Australia
and the southern tip of South Amer
lea.
The principal meteoric show
ers," Doctor Lee said, will be the
Perseids on August u, early in the
morning in the northeastern sky,
and the Leonids, which will be seen
after midnight on November IA in
the eastern sky"
Meteoric showers, he explained,
take their names from constella-
tions in that part of the sky from
which the showers seem to come.
Other displays during the year will
be the Lyrids, early in the evening
in the northwest on April 20; the
Orionids, late in the evening in the
east on October 20. and the Andro-
mids, high in the eastern sky all
night on November "a.
mo bright comets are expected
this next year." Doctor Lee said,
''but there is always the chance that
big comet will stray. Some Of
them take thousands Of years to
make one trip around the sun, and
many have not been recorded. The
last bright comet visible from the
earth passed in 1910"
Doctor Lee added that the rest of
the winter will be a good time to
watch for the Northern lights. These
displays are connected with sun
spots, which are reaching a maxi
mum in their 1i-year period just
now.

was derived chiefly from salary or
wages and was not in excess Of

Form 1040A. A person whose net
income was in excess of $4,000, or,
regardless of amount, was derived
from bushes, profession, rents,

use Form 1040. Failure to use the
proper forms presents difficulties
to both the taxpayer and the Bu-
reau of Internal Revenue There

and is engaged in a business or
profession from which he derived
a net income of less than $4,000 is
required to use Form 1910

the collector of internal revenue

time of filing the return or in four
equal installments, due on or be-
fore March 10, June Is, Septem-
Der Is, and December Is.
