PA eS RN NG T° Miss Lorene Garman has returned 70 Scottish soldiers were killed and about 400 injured in a railroad wreck near Carlisle, England. ; In behalf of the bishops of the Meth- odist Episcopal Church, Bishop Earl Cranston of Washington has made public a special “Call to Prayer,” appointed to be read in all the Meth- odist churches. “Not once a day only nor merely when convenient, but in our every thought of God, let the cry of our hearts incessantly ascend for the peace of Europe and of the world,” says the appeal. From Germany with its millions fighting east and west reached Phil adelphia port a cargo to gladden the hearts of American children celebrat- ing the birth of the Prince of Peace. Upwards of 400 cases of Christmes toys, made by the famous toy houses of Germany, comprised the bulk of the cargo. They were made months ago, then shipped by rail to Rotter- |. dam and loaded into the Dutch steamship Sommelsdyk, which brought them to this country. The information is given out that Germany has resumed submarine at: tacks upon unarmed merchant ves- sels. Report says that it was due solely to the bravery of those on board of a Norwegian ship, a few days ago that the passenger and crew of one of the torpedoed vessels were saved. The significance of this information as revealing the attitude of German- ny toward the United States and the demands made by the president fol- lowing the sinking of the Lusitania is variously estimated. Represenia- tives of the administration profess to believe that has no bearing whatever upon the differences between the U- nited States and Germany. The cir- cumstances, however, do not warrant such conclusions. Immediately after the sinking of the Lusitania there was a suspension of submarine war- fare by Germany. On Sunday Italy declared war on the Austrian-Hungarian Empire with three million men, fully equipped with arms and ammunition, it is ex- pected, will be put in the field within a month. Germany has now declared war on Italy, its former ally. Italy is the twelfth nation to plunge into the world war now in its tenth month.The empires, kingdoms and republics now fighting are: Great Britain, including Canada, India, Egypt and the Union of South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and other island possessions; Russia; France and her north Africa depen- dencies; Belgium; Italy; Servia; Montenegro; Japan, which helped drive the Germans out of China and seized Germany's islands in the Pa- cific; Portugal, which has an army fighting Germans in Africa; Germany with her South African possessions; Austria-Hungary; Turkey; In addition Persia is overrun by Turkish troops and is helpless. China is at Japan's mercy. The whole world seems to be war-magi” Altogether there are nearly thirty million men now en- gaged in fighting. DEMAND FOR COAL GREAT, BUT SHIPS ARE FEW. John Lochrie, head of the Scalp Level Coal Mining Company and af- flliated fuel interests, has returned from a trip to New York assured of a greatly increased demand in Eu- rope for American coal. ‘But,” said Mr. Lochrie, “the trouble is that we haven't got enough vessels to take the stuff across. All of our mines we could assure European purchasers of rapid transit across the ocean and prompt delivery. It seems to be up and means as to shipping. The sink- to the government to provide ways ing of the Lusitania has scared the owners of many freight steamers, which makes the situation ‘ worse Italy, France, Russia, Spain and even England need coal. Until we tackle the problem of furnishing American manufacturers and exporters with a large mercantile marine, like Eng- land and Germany have had, we will not be in a position to enjoy to the utmost the boom in our trade which we have a right to expect after the war ends. More ships is the cry now. ELECTRIC PLANTS FOR FARMS. A complete electric light and power plant, small enough to stand on a kitchen table and complete enough to light the surrounding territory, was one of the exhibits made by the en- gineering students of Highland Park College, Des Moines, Ia. recently.
