left the Union station here and the

Chester !Hall .lumped on the train be

two dogs, thug taking a great risk.
Fortunately he was seen and the crew
notified, and ait Lemoyne he was taken
into the traia and carried to Dillsburg,
liis destination, and for which point he
held a ticket.
'' While in this instance no accident

the agitation in regard to 'safety first,'
that people wiM continue to take such

THE NEW WAY OF PAYING FOREIGN DEBT
(Copyright;, 1914, by C. M. Keyg, New York.)
One at the big bugbears of this war hag been the amount of
money owed by the people of the United States to the people of
Europe. When the war broke out and all shipping was Interrupted,
various experts figured this debt at 1200,000,000 to $300,000,000.
Theoretically It had to be paid In gold, and a great many men spent
a lot of time deploring this grim necessity, which seemed likely to
bring about an exhaustion of American credit by withdrawing the
basis of that credit from circulation and deposit.
The thing that actually happened was something quite different.
If the Qerman, French and British fleets had been scattered all over
the world in large units and if every ship that sailed from Ne?w York
or New Orleans for Europe had been In any serious danger of being
captured during the months of October and November, the thing
that the experts feared might have happened, for it is not likely that
the debtors ot this side of the ocean would have been able to hold
the creditors of the other side at arm's length for a long period by
refusing to pay their debts. Because the great German fleet retired
behind the defences at Wllhelmahaven and Kiel, and because the
scattered cruisers of that nation found It expedient to avoid the main
lines between America and Burope, quite a different thing came to
pass. The main highway of commerce being almost wide open be
tween England and America, the European creditors of this country
found their debts paid in quite a different way.
In October merchants and commission men In this e-otfntry shipped
to Europe something like $30,000,000 worth of wheat and a smaller
amount of corn. In addition, concerns that were able to furfllsh
socks, shirts, cotton duck, barbed wire and a dozen other products
needed by armies in the flcU. found an Immediate market In Europe
and shipped .their goods on ru»li orders through the open lanes of
the Atlantic. Imports from Europe, on the other hand, fell oft very
greatly, the decline In the Imports from Germany alone being some
thing over $30,000,000,
Thus In a single month the tables were turned very quickly and
our debt to Europe, which had looked so threatening and enormous,
began to dwindle very rapidly. This process of shrinkage in the
foreign debt Is proceeding even more rapidly at the time this is
written and seems likely to keep on proceeding for quite a long time
to come. Some of the orders reported are tremendously big orders.
There are rumors, for instance, of an order for ordnances which
would run into many millions of dollars. A similar condition exists
with respect to powder and other high explosives. An aeroplane
company, which in July was employing 120 hands, is now employing
over 1,000, and is working day and night. Its shipments, if all its
orders can be filled in the next six months, will wlfoe out more than
(5,000,000 of our debt to Europe.
More prosaic, but steadier than the shipment of actual war sup
piles of this sort, is the great trade In provisions and staple articles
of clothing. Blankets and cotton duck are the principal textiles In
which trade seems to be likely on a large scale, but there also seem
to be pending some big contracts for uniforms as well as for uni
form cloth, and much has been heard of gigantic orders for shirts
and underwear filaced with houses in the Middle West. In shoes
something like 3,500,000 pairs are reported to have been ordered, and
the average price per pair Is somewhere between $3 and $4. Such
an extraordinary episode speaks for itself.
In provisions, the demand seems to be unlimited. One hears of
an order placed In Oklahoma. City for 15,000,000 pounds of canned
meats; and of other orders even larger reported in the trade as
pending, and sometimes even as placed without full price being
given. It would appear, In fact, from all the reports, as though every
pound of foodstuffs that can be placed upon the American markets
for many months to come, would be taken at gdod iprices by the for
eign buyer*.
The experts are now engaged in revising their figures. Instead
of dwelling upon the enormous balance due to Europe, they are
spending more time figuring how long it will take at the present
rate of export, as compared with the present rate of import, to wipe
out our debt to Europe altogether, and to place the shoe upon the
other foot. Some of the more optimistic count upon a complete col
lapse of manufacturing industry in Europe, and observing from the
news that the German artillery always makes a special point ot>
destroying anything that looks like a mill on French or Belgian soil,
and concluding that the same kind of warfare will be fought, if by
chance the scene of battle should be shifted across the Rhine, are
figuring further ahead and tryitjg to estimate how big a balance will
be piled up in our favor from this international trado If tho war
should last for a year. From their conclusions on such premises
some of the pjost optimistic estimates for the future are being con
structed.
The fact of the matter, of course, is that In all probability our
foreign debt will be wiped out. It must not be forgotten, however,
that when this debt is wiped out and Europe actually owes us money
on the trade balance, we shall still have to figure upon the fact that
Europe holds our securities to the extent of several billions of dol
lars, and that at some time in the future some way must be discov
ered to enable Europe to use these securities or their proceeds for
the purchase o-t goods here. This is even a larger problem, and one
that is getting more and' more important as time goes 011.
It might be wise, therefore, not to form to definite a conclusion
from the trade reports. They are encouraging and cheerful. They
give us faith to go on doing business with all the rest of the civi
lized world in turmoil. There are great, opportunities which our
merchants and manufacturers are seizing as well as they can; but
it would be well to conclude, once for all, that these gifts of fortune
do not, by any means, undo throughout the world, the destruction
and damage of which sooner or later all the nations of the world
must pay their share.

ROSE STAHUS AMINE
Introduces Her Refreshing Stage Slang
Again in Her New Play, "The
Perfect Lady," at Majestic
Miss Rose Stahl, in a role in many
ways similar to that in which* she won
international plaudits in "The Chorus
Lady," appeared last night in the Ma
jestic Theatre in the new vehicle for
her art, "The Perfect Lady," With her
was a small but capable company which
got about all that could be got out of
the clever comedy.
WMle "The Perfect Lady" is not by
a large margin as strong a play us
"The Chorus Lady," it provides excel
lent entertainment and something be
sides. While described as a comedy it
contains several situations which re
quire real emotionaJ acting. As in "The
Chorus Lady" the chief charm is the
naturalness with which Miss Stahl
"gets off" the slang of the stage. 8lit)
is introduced in the first act as the
"star" of a stranded burlesque show
of the strietly for-men-only type, but
the development of the plot shows that
"Lucille Le Jambon," known on tho
i stage as "Lucille Higgins," was actual
|ly a woman of strong character al
though her environment, had cast her
| upon the world in the role of a "cheap
actress.''
It develops that she did the burlesque
part merely to raise funds to educate
her little sister and raise her to a
sphore where she could escape such ;v
life. "Lucille Le Jambon's" course
finally is justified in the eyes of the au
dience as well as those of all the citi
zens of Sycamore, the little town she
settled in to make a living after quit
ting the stage.
Miss Stahl's acting is natural and
delightful, and the play carries with it
the lesson in human charity that de
serves pondering over.
CITY ACQUIRES 14 'A^ES
Completes Transaction Whereby It Gets
Last Parcel Needed to Complete
Wildwood Park
Deedis filed with the Recorder late
this afternoon mark the transfer and,
incidentally, the last-act in connection
with the city's acquiring of fourteen
acres of woodland adjacent to Wild
wood Park in exchange for a trifle more
than four acres of ground given to the
old Pennsylvania Canal Company, now
controlled by the Pennsylvania Kail
road.
The city's grant to the Pennsy covers
several small strips of ground border
ing the right of way of the railroad
company, which were valueless for park
purposes. The ground acquired by the
city is a strip situated between the old
canal bed and the park roadway and
immediately south of the Wildwoodi
da in.
This was the last section of wood
land which the city needed to carry out
its scheme for the completion of Wild
wood Park and while it actually ha*
been used by the municipality for park
purposes for several years the deeds of
transfer were filed only this afternoon.
The exchange of ground was facili
tated by a city ordinance passed No
conferences were held between the mem
bers of the old Park Commission and
tlio Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
