Lawrence CHIROPODIST* 204 Market Street *■ RAILROAD BALDWIN GETS TWO BIG ORDERS 450 Locomotives to Be Built For Russian and English Governments Philadelphia July 17.—New busi ness involving a guaranteed income of approximately $18,500,000 was as sumed at the Baldwin Locomotive Works yesterday when it reached contracts from the Russian and Brit ish governments, calling for the con struction and delivery within the coming tiscal year of 350 freight lo comotives. The Russian contract is part of an order which has been placed in thiß country for 600 gigantic engines and is divided equally between the Bald win and American Locomotive Com panies. The total amount of this or der agrregates $28,000,000, of which one-half will be received by the local concern. The British contract calls for the building of 100 locomotives, at a cost ot approximately $4,500,000. Rumors of the placing of the ad ditional business were heard the lat ter part of last week, but deilnite an nouncement of the magnitude and the amount of money involved in the contracts was not made until yesterday. Therefore, while the or ders were a surprise to many and just an incident in the daily routine of others in the local financial com munity, they had absolutely no ef fect on tlio stock of Baldwin's on the local exchange yesterday. The contract entered into with the Russian government is unique in that payment is virtually guaranteed by the United States government. While no statement regarding this phase of the contract was forthcom ing here, it was assumed by local financial interests that such an ar rangement had been made between the Washington and Petrograd ad ministrations during negotiations tjfat have been progressing through tfteir respective missions in Kussia and this country. The Russian freight locomotives are to be of what is known as the decapoed type, and are to be deliv ered during the first half of 1918. The British engines are to be of the consolidated freight type and are to be delivered during the next six months. The receipt of the two orders will mako this year and the next prob ably the greatest, insofar as the amount of business transacted and the receipts involved are concern ed, in the history of the Baldwin Company. It already had business booked that would have taxed, its capacity through 1918.

Finland's Plan to Secede From Russia Caase of Tension in Government Helsingfors, July 17. The pro posed promulgation whereby Fin land seeks to wrest from Russia complete independence has caused extreme tension and nervousness. The situation Is complicated by the Diet's continual refusal to grant a full 350,000,000 marks loan to Rus sia and by a threat of a general strike if the Diet postpones the sage of the new communal bill abol ishing property qualifications. The latter was the subject of a demon stration in the Senate last night. If no compromise is reached the bill will be on third reading to-morrow, backed by Socialists and a handful of Bourgeois members. Other Bourgeois members or Swedish-Finnish nationality oppose the measure, declaring they, too, support in principle complete inde pendence by that the proposed law Is in fact unconstitutional and a coup d'etat would be certain to pro voke Russia's resentment. A. I. Shingaroff, Russian minis ter of finance, explained Russia's dif ficulties through Inability to pay her soldiers and sailors in Finland ow ing to lack of Finnish currency and Finland's erfugal to accept the rouble. Thereupon Americans un dertook to put at Russia's disposal ann Finnish marks obtainable in America, also to furnish money of other foreign currencies which Fin land acceptes. CATTLEMAN "MAKES" TOWN ASTRIDE WILD BRONCHO Salinas—Riding bareback on an un tamed bronco, one of a band he was bringing in from the ranges on the Gabilan, to be used during the orig inal California rodeo and Salinas big week. July 18 to July 22, Andy Martin, local cattleman and one of the most expert riders of the Salinas valley, succeeded in reaching town after his own horse, which he had tethered out, had broken away and wandered into the rough mountain country. Martin's feat is considered un usual in view of the fact that the animal had never before been rid den. It was only after a pitched bat tle of more than an hour's duration that the cattleman succeeded in mastering the outlaw. A search for Martin's stray cow pony, which car ried with it a silver-mounted sad dle, valued at more than S2OO, will be made. FUNERAL OF MR. BITTING Funeral services for Harry J.
