FINANCIAL
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
DROPS IN NEW YORK
ONABSENCEOFBIDS
Demand Sterling Declined
l0 4,91 Money Market
Continues to Grow Easier.
Steel Common in Demand.
The situation of an absenco of bids won
created In the foreign exchnngo market
In, New York, nml this morning demand
sterling declined to 4.91 against 4.83 on
FrMy ft week ago. There was no tie
mind for exchange on Paris, and tho
rtes for norlln exchange of 80091 wero
purely nominal. It Is current gossip that
iome of the banks nre long of exchange
tnd that pressure from these Institutions
hu been partly responsible for the sharp
decllne
The New York city financing with tho
shipment of $33530.616 gold to Canada and
th arrangements for the exchange gold
pool, which has deposited flO,0OO,O0O gold
)n Ottawa, together with the heavy ex
pansion of exports, has radically changed
the exchange outlook, and It would not
he surprising If rates fell to a range
favoring this country In future gold move
ments,
MONEY SITUATION EASIER
The monetary situation In New York
continues to grow caster with scattered
offerings of time money nt C per cent.,
but tho banks In their transactions with
.borrowers recognize to tho full extent
'changes In security values since July SO.
This Is done, not by lowering quotations
on collateral pledged for loans, but by
inflating on additional collateral, which
brings tho margin on tho loans down to
current street quotations.
DEMANDS FOR STEEL COMMON.
There was a better dcmnml for Steel
common In today's open market trading,
with street brokers bidding 3S!4 for the
itock. Uncertainty over tho dividend ac
tion tomorrow Is greater than at any
previous time prior to tho district meet
ings of tho corporation, but so fnr as can
bo learned tho matter will not be decided
until the directors moot.
New York city bond Issues continue
tlcady, although slight recessions wero
noted In tho now loan Issues. Tho Itts
of 1964 sold at 94 and tho 4Hs. aro In de
mand at 10056, both under a flb per cent,
return.
The outlook for reopening the Stock Ex
changes hero and In London continues
confused. Tho decision of the New York
Exchange not to make any changes in
minimum prices Is thought to Indicate
Indefinite postponement of tho resump
tion of regular dealings, and In London
the proposed plans for credit extensions
have been rejected by tho Government.
Thero li a better outlook for the re
opening of tho Cotton Exchange, and nn
announcement from that body Is looked
for In tho next three days.

BRITISH EMBARGO
ON SUGAR WILL BE
SHORT, BELIEF HERE
Local Exporters Think Un
filled Orders Are Not Un
der Ban Half of Big Or
der Delivered.
Sugar exporters In this city believe that
tho embnrgo placed on the Importation
of sugar Into tho United Kingdom, do
clari'd by the British Government, will
bu of short duration, and In any case It
will not affect the unfilled orders now
held In this country. They nre also of
tho ojilnlon that tho prohibition Is di
rected chiefly against Italy, Sweden, Nor
way, Don mark nnd Spain. These coun
tries nro heavy buyers of the raw beet
sugar production of Germany, nnd It Is
this production Great llrltlnn Is anxious
to keep out of tho world's mart.
About HOO.OOO tons of raw nnd refined
sugar had been ordered by Kngllsh Im
porters from this country beforo tho
declaration forbidding entry of sugar was
promulgated. Nearly hnlf of this order
has been delivered, nnd exporters nro
continuing their plans for the delivery of
tho remainder, confident that It will be
accepted, regardless of the prohibition
order.
At the outbreak of the war the Gorman
Government placed n ban on tho exporta
tion of sugar. Now money Is needed nnd
there Is moro thnn enough sugar In Prus
sia to satisfy the demands. Permission
has been granted for tho exportation of
22,000 hundredweight. When the English
Government learned this tho embargo on
importations followed.
Although the Sprcckleo Sugnr Refinery
hns enormous quantities of raw sugar
stored In this city, their plant nt Reed
street wharf Is closed down. Tho clos
ing of tho plant was duo to tho largo
qunntttlcs of tho refined product on hand,
which made It unnecessary to boll more
of the raw product until sales Increased.
Refined sugar exports aro leaving this
port on every transatlantic steamship.
The American Line steamship Haverford,
which sailed for Liverpool on Saturday,
nnd several tons stored In her holds.
Tho bookings on vessels to Iea-e In tho
near future nro heavy.

LONDON, Oct. 26.-The Government to
day rejected tho proposal of hankers to
continue stock exchange loans for an In

Tho outlook for the reopening of the

Humors that the committee Intended to
resign because of disagreement and al
legations of tardiness were today de
clared to be without foundation In fact.
Thero wus a lurgo attondanco of brokers

BRIDGE NOT SATISFACTORY
Bascule Structure Over Canal
at
Lewes Subject of Complaint.
LEWES, Del.. Oct. 2S.-What Is to be
done with the fine, new bascule bridge
which the levy court of Sussex County
placed over tha Lewes canal Is a matter
now agitating the people of the county.
The bridge was completed some time ago
at a cost of about $35,000 and Is the first
bascule bridge erected In the State. It U
a fine structure, works well, as fur as
tha machinery Is concerned, and the levy
court accepted It.
Now the trouble Is coming. The boat
men, who use the canal, say the bridge
does not lift enough near perpendicular
to allow their vessels to pass through In
safety. It tukes considerable engineering
to get through without striking a, mast,
they say. and unites something Is dona
complaint will be made to the Govern
ment. The members of the levy court
will Investigate. It wouiu cost consider
able money to change the bridge.

RESERYE BANKS OPEN
More Than $400,000,000
Will Be Released by In
ception of New Law.
Cotton Situation to Benefit.
WASHINGTON, Oct 2. Official an
nouncement Is mado by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo that tho U Federal re
servo banks will open for business on
November IS. Tho Secretary points out
In his statement that when the banks
are opened moro than $100,000,000 of re
serve money, now hold In the vaults of
banks, will bo released, as under the
new bnnklnK law 18 per cent, reserves
will be required, ns against 25 per cent,
now exacted.
Secretary McAdoo gays that he was
impelled to set November 16 a tho open
Ins; data for tho banks bocnuse of tho
cotton situation In the South and tho
general business conditions throughout
the country. Ho points out that tho
opening of tho banks should relievo tho
cotton situation.
In his statement Secretary McAdoo
says:
"I am fully awaro of the physical dif
ficulties that must bo overcomo to set
the reserve banks In motion on the 16th
of November, but tho directors of these
banks represent tho highest degree of
American banking ability, nnd I nm suro
that not only can they meet tho situation,
but they will cheerfully tako up tho taBk
In tho samo flno spirit of public service
which animated their discussions at tho
Washington conference.
"As Ihe result of the enactment of tho
war rovenuo mensuro the parity between
receipts nnd disbursements of tho TrenB
ury will Boon bo happily restored. This
will make It possible for the Treasury to
render still greater rorvlco than It hns
already rendered In helping tho financial
situation In the South nnd In other parts
of tho country whero tho need has ap
peared. MOItE AID FROM TREASURY
"Tho prompt opening of Uio Federal
Reservo banks will make tho asslstanco
of tho Treasury doubly powerful, be
causo tho Federal Reserve act author
izes tho Secretary of tho Treasury, In
hlB discretion, to deposit a large amount
of tho moneys held In tho 'general
fund' In tho Federnd Reserve banks and
to require such banks to act as fiscal
ngents of the United States, nnd also
In his discretion to deposit the revenues
of tho Government, or any part thereof.
In the reserve bnnkR, and to mako dis
bursements by checks drawn against
such deposits.
"Under the present system the Secre
tary of the Treasury cannot with pru
denco scatter the 'general fund' of
tho Treasury among tho great num
ber of widoly separated national banks
throughout tho country. Up to the pres
ent time I hnvo gono bo far In that
direction ns I liavo felt It was wise to
go, but with the larger powers con
ferred by tho Federal Reservo net and
tho use which I may be ablo to make
of tho Federal Reservo banks ns fiscal
ngents of tho Government, It will be
prudent and wise to deposit a large
amount of tho 'general fund' In the
treasury of the Federal banks."
WILL DEPOSIT FEDERAL FUNDS.
"As soon, therefore, as tho Federal
banks nre open I will transfer to them
as largo an amount of Government funds
as possible. This In turn will enable them
to extend large credits to national banks
and State banks which may become
members of the Federal reservo system,
which they In turn may extend to their
customers.
"By this means, and through the agency
of the Federal reserve banks, I hope to
give additional assistance to that already
given by tho Treasury Department to tho
cotton producers, the cotton Industry and
the business men of tho South.
"The now reservo requirements, which
will become opcrntlvo on the 16th day of
November upon the opening of the Fed
eral reserve banks, will release more thnn
(100,000,000 of reserve money and largely
Increase the credit facilities of the banks
of the country."
THE GOLFERS' AFTERMATH
Gil Nichols, tho well-known Wilmington
professional, has not as yet fully recov
ered from the Injury he sustained in an
automobile aocldcnt at Capo May during
the summer. It was feared that Gil
would never be ablo to play golf again,
but, fortunately, this Is not so, nnd with
out a doubt ho will be fighting It out
around tho top In the open events neext
summer.
Tlaylns over the championship course
nt Deal, which Is, by tho way, about a
drive nnd an Iron from tha spot whero
Julius Caesar landed when ho invaded
England, the Hon. Michael Scott had tho
remarkable scoro of 63, mado up as
follows:
Out 3 4 4 2 13 4 5 4-33
In 4 43 124 4 4 3-32-83
This Is several strokes less than tha
record for the course, but does not stand
as bucIi, as It was not mnde In a stroke
competition. This score was made with
out a bit of luck and only one putt that
would bo considered long.
The male members of the South Herts
Golf Club, to which Harry Vardon Is at
tached as professional, presented him re
cently with a check for $300 and a silver
rose bowl, in recognition of his sixth suc

Secretary of Afrrlculture Houston, In
nddresslnp; the association, snul:
"Up to two or three years bbo attention
was directed almost exclusively to the
production side of rural life. The slogan
was 'Make two blades of grass grow
where only one grew before." And Indi
vidualism characterized thinking nnd act
ing. 'Tho neglect of rural llfo by tho
nation has not been conscious or wilful.
We hnvo been so bent on building up great
Industrial centres, in rivaling nations of
tha world not so fortunately circum
stanced ngrlculturally.
"In manufacturing, fostering It by every
natural nnd artificial device wo could
think of, so busy trying to make each
city larger by &00,000 or more Inhabitants
for tho next census.
"Intlmntuly Involved In both production
and distribution of products Is tho mntter
of good roads. The railway will continue
for an Indefinite time to bo the national
highway. The emphasis Is needed on the
community road. It Is estimated that It
costs 25 cents a ton mile to haul under
existing conditions on the country road,
and that this could be reduced by half
If tho roads were Improved."
WANT OLYMPIAD AT ANTWERP
United States Not Considered for
Games, Paris Paper Says.
NEW YORK. Oct. 2o.-In th midst of
tho great European war tho Olympic
games have not been forgotten. A lead
ing Paris newspaper recently printed the
following editorial while tho German army
was threatening tho city:
"It was announced two weeks ngn that
the International Olympic Committee bad
decided that tho next Olympiad, due t.i
take placo In 1010 nt Berlin, would bo
transferred to tho I'nitod States. This
Information, w liavo been Informed, u
without foundation. Tha International
Olympic Committee hna not mado this
decision. The question will not even be
considered.
"Whether a transfer is or is not made
the Olympic games will not be held In
Berlin in 1916- And fur t!il thero are
many reasons. .Neither Russia, Prance.
Groat Britain nor Belgium will accept
participation. The victory of the Allies
will not be a reaton for forgetting. No
one of them will consent, it Is evident, to
making Berlin for one month the centre
of the universal athletic festivities.
"The Olympic games at New York In
1914 would be quito Welcome, but that
which would pbase would be a decision
of the International Committee fixing
them at Antwerp."

LAW HITS YOUNG FATHER
Head of Kansas Family Not
Old
Enough to Smoke.
TOPE3ICA. Kan.. Oct. . The antl-
slgarctte law passed by the Kansas Leg
islature a few years ago and rigorously
enforced In Topeka Is oven depriving
heads of families of their smokes. Ar
thur Haynes. ono of the well-known farm
ers of Jefferson County, Is telling of a
young man who lives In his vicinity
nonr Perry, and who, although under 21
years old, Is married and the father of
a babv.
According to Haynes, the antl-clgar-otto
law Is being enforced in Perry quite
n well ns In Topeka. His young friend,
however, on account of being the head of
a family, had obtained a special dispen
sation fro monc dealer and was ablo to
get "the mnkin' " without any trouble.
I'innlly tho dealer decided to take no
chances and refused to sell his special
customer any more tobacco or papers.
Tho refusal was a blow to tha youn;r
man, who was completely out of his
favorite brand of tobacco when he last
attempted to purchnso some.
"So I've got to lay oft of smokln' foi
a yoar, liavo I?" ho Inquired of the ob
durate tobacco sailer. The dealer refused
to offer any suggestion anil the young
man pondered for sevoral minutes.
"Say!" ho Anally exclaimed. "If my
baby's grandpa says I can amoka will
you Hen me the maklna'7"
The careful merchant still refuged to
take chances and the head of tha family
has decided to abstain for a year,
