the citizens of Blnlr County, the homo
' county of tin' republican candidate for
i Governor In the afternoon.
Doctor Urimibnugh said that for 1G0

State and tried to live useful lives. Ho
eald ho was proud to be one of these
people and to bo nn expression of them.'
Ho was a candidate who was not pledged

pledge save that of service to the public.
In speaking of local option, Doctor
Brumbaugh raid:
"I shall stand for It to the end. When

of the Iluropean war upon tho prices of
foodstuffs.
Suj,ar was his special theme. He pre
dicted ten-cent sugar. He showed that
It had advanced within a few weeks from
4.63 to 7.5 cents a pound. This hu said
was due to the Domociatlu party juggling

the changes It had made.

GHENT, Sept. 25.
There Is no wny to get to Ghent but
by the Red Cross train, nnd the doctor
told me to climb In. Ghent was four
miles away.
Four miles back the German artillery
was booming. German shells were smash
ing buildings in Mechlin; they had
wrecked the cathedral altar, entering
through the great, colored windows;
houses and homes were going down ut
every deep booming sound thut reached
our cars. And In this Red Cross train
wero the 200 patients who had been in
the hospitals at Mechlin.
"We had to take them out," explained
the doctor, "because the shells were fly
ing around tho building. It's probably
blown up by this time.
"But there's a big hospital waiting for
them at Ghent," the doctor said, "and
we'll Hx them up all right."
We walked through the car and across
the platforms to the next car. The doc
tor pointed his finger toward an upper
stretcher in a corner.
"Dead," he said.
1 looked and saw nothing but a sheet
covering a form that swayed gruesomely.
"It's a soldier who was shot through
the head. Ho was dying this afternoon."
the doctor continued, "but we brought him
along. I suppose movlmr has killed him,
but what were wo to do? We couldn't
stay at Mechlin." He showed me another
wounded soldier, who was very nearly
gona. Theie wero great bandages about
his chest.
"Shot through tho lungs," explained the
doctor. "Those nurses nn trying to stop
tho pain for him and let him out easily.
They'll probably gle him too much, but
ho can't live anyhow."
hen we reached Ghent two hours later
thern wns a sheet otr him. For him the
greatest war In tho history of tho world
hud ended during the ilde on the train.
FRW FATALLY WOrNDCD.
There were not many seriously wounded
soldlors. Mont of them hod bren shot In
tho hands or arms. One man told me why
an the Injured teemed to be only slightly
hutt.
"It's becaube Its only the fellows who
can get away without holp that are able
to escape. a had to leave our wounded
on the Held. I've had some who wero only
Hhot In the tot Iwg mo to kill them as
we letrented, to save them from the Ger
mans. You can't use your reolver on
tl enmrode. Tho only thing we could do
was to stick our lingers In our ears and
ktp on, hoping thut the Germans would
i-oino soon and make It easier for them.
That Is why people are saying that our
men pnd the French are only slightly
wounded. If you're hurt so you can't
move yourself, you're through dead."
THE AGED IN FLIGHT.
Ten Cars of the train were filled with
old men and women. Some of them
were Incredibly old and bent. They
came from the homes for the aged at
Mechlin. A nurse pointed out one woman
who was more than 100 years old and
who had been alive when Napoleon's
conquest of Europe was slipping away
from him. These old folk, who years
before had quit their work and had
found a quiet, peaceful corner In beau
tiful Mallncs In which to die, were being
taken away by the Red Cross to save
from German shells the few short
days of their ending lives.
We drew Into Ghent late In tho eve
ning. Soldiers and nurses took the help
less from the cars and started them In
automobiles and vehicles of all sorts for
the hospital. They lifted down the two
white-sheeted forms and a black wagon
took them away.
Even whllo this was being done and
while the old folks waiting In wheel
chairs were chattering like chlldicn
about tho Prussian war in 1870, the citi
zens of Ghent wero crowding the depot
trying to get away from the city be

were coming,

Secretary McAdoo's Stric
tures Not Aimed at East
ern Institutions, Which
Have Aided Business.
"Secretary McAcloo had better mind his
own business nnd not meddle with the
business of the banks. He Is nosing about
too much." This observation wan made
yesterday by a Philadelphia banker In
discussing the assertion of the Secietary
of the Treasury that some banks wero
hoarding reserves and exacting uxorbl
tant interest for emergency currency.
This banker Is comparatively a young
mnn and, perhaps, that explains the heat
of his utterance. Older bankers were not
so vehement In their expressions. All
united In saying that the secretary's as
sertion wns not aimed at any Philadel
phia bank, because the hanks ot this
city, as their statements show, are not
hoarding their reserves.
A fact that throws, what seems to be a
convincing light on this matter, was men
tioned by a bunk president. This wae
that the conjoined cosh reserves of all
tho Philadelphia National banks are
little. If at all. above the legal require
ments. For seven weeks after the closure
of the Stock Exchange, the cash reserves
sank steadily. Before that sinking spell,
they were unusually high, but the long
drain reduced them to a point, probably,
below the legal requirements. For the
last three weeks they have been gaining,
but the gain has come nowhere near
making up the losses.
Tho bank statement has omitted the
Items of legal requirement and surplus
for the last 10 weeks. Attention was
called also to the fact that the cash
reserves of the New York Clearing House
banks are far below the legal icquire
ment, the deficit at present being nearly
533U.OOO.OOO.
"That shows pretty plainly that the
banka In the largo Eastern rlflB tiav
not been remiss in their dutj and are
not hoarding," a banker remarked.
The president of a leading national
bank said that no Philadelphia national
.i..n. tuum uc inciuoeu among those at
tacked by Secretary McAdoo. "It is only
Western and Southern banks which are
in question," he said. "One Western In
stitution. I have learned, has a W per
cent, reserve."
riu "!5e," ,hero aK,cc1 ln "ny'ng that the
f lillndelpnla banks wore looking after
their customers. Chnrlrs S. Calwell
president of the Corn Exchange National
Bank, said:
"Thorn w?s never a time when a great
er spirit of co-operation existed among
tho banks This was shown hv their
pledge to raise S10).n0 noo to relieve the
foreign exchange market nnd help the
credit situation. If there aro any banks
In tho United States not following a like
helpiul course in facilitating business
r.nd who are carrjlng more reserve than
required In keeping with good banking
practice. I think that the Secietary Is
Justified In reprimanding them a little
and that his announcement will prohablj
nave good effort. As far as Philadelphia
Is concerned, tho H, Cretan's remarks have
no application."
As absolving Philadelphia' trusx com
panies of any suspicion of hoarding their
resources. Charles J. Rhouds. vice presi
dent of tho Glrnrd Trust Company, called
attention to their statements mod of
their condition of August 27 In response
to the rerent call of the Comptroller of
the Currency Mr. Rhonds said the state
ments showed In most cases cash le
serves below the legal requirements.
"The Secretary of the Treasur ha.j
to take such nrtion ns this." added Mr
Rhoads. "Here and there throughout the
country. presumaW), banking Institutions ,
have been found hoarding their reserves
.Men refused loans b these Institutions

Secretary of the Treasury. And the pub- I

NEW YORK, Sept. 26. -Creditors of thrf
Duko of Manchester, whoso International
Kduratlonal League, a daylight moving;
picture scheme, so.i wrecked on a finan
cial reef, are besieging him today at tho
Rltz-f.'arllon In a mighty effort to col
lect money due them. The league had
been Incorporated with a capital of $10,
000.000, but It collapsed before much of
the stock had been sold Tho Duka
came here today from Philadelphia,
whither he went a few days ago whan
If lentb.cd the citurc was a failure.
For a while his whereabouts wore a
in) story, ns he had been reported In
Canada and thn In Philadelphia.
Efforta are being made by a procesa
server for Thomas F. Galvin, a Flftli
avenue florist, to find the Duke, so that
papers- can be jorved on him In a suit
to recover $450. which it is alleged the
Duke owes on a florist bill. Louis F.
Pearl, attorney for Galvin, says ha
chased tho Englishman for weeks be
fore ho paid $2.") on account of a fiZ
bill. The Duko also gave another check:
for 2V), but It came back marked "no
good."
In March. 1300, the Duke married Miss
Helen Zimmerman, daughter of Eugeno
Zimmerman, a millionaire banker and.
railroad magnate, of Cincinnati. The)
Duke and Duchess have passed much of
their time in England and have
traveled a groat deal. Zimmerman ar
rived In Cincinnati yesterday, and laugh
ed heartily when told his son-in-law was
reported to have dropped tt.OOO.OOO of his
own money In the enterprise.
"The Duke never mentioned the matter
to me In the way of suggesting that I
Invest," said Zimmerman. "It Is absurd
