By HOLLAND.
A year ago) one of the New York
tiicrrrunts who import articles es
pecially designed tor ih Christinas
trad bought in other land", prin
cipally Japan, l'ltritiua wU of
the value of $6,isMH. 1 ,is yiar
lie has hought and imported good
of like character of a value between
Sjtf.UOO.OoO and $8.(KM),()txi. livery
penny involved in this purchase went
to Germany.- Every one of the arti
cle thin imported were of German
make. They commanded our mar
ki t becaue the price was lower than
that demanded tor similar articles
manufactured Elsewhere.
This is only one incident in our
recently resumed German trade.
Probably there arc many others. In
fact rumors of heavy jcrchascs of
German mane commodttes arc m
circulation, lint tlrs incident is au
thentically reported because the im
porter who bought these goods liim
sctf admitted the purchase and the
import.
Other Trade Threatened.

Km tho wonder is whether In lew

world's nirk'U and sspvrlally m those
of the Inltul Hiaie. tlis advantages
which will lie gained by the vurchaw uf
Herman commodities because those arc sola
at prices wlilttt other nations cannot grant,
may not result in correapoiitiing tn&uuvan
Lfages. If tl'irnwuiy commands a world
Mrado for many commodities what will
ulnar nations ilo who ant now relying upon
their Industries for Industrial and com
mercial recovery.
The sneeeh recently delivered hy Sen
ator Nelson, In which ho asserted that
lomn tit the lepde-s of lulKie urannl-Httona
am responsible for much of tho unemploy
ment of labor, haa been a topic which
haa occasioned 'much discussion In New
Tork City. It la a fact that the senator
did voice an opinion which haa been
hold for eome time here. gtnee the meet
Inn of the employment conference at Wah
fngton the remark haa frequently been
made, ly some who are leaders In in
dustry and In financial movements, that
the crisis of the situation la tho atti
tude of aome of the loaders of labor or
ganizations who will not permit organ
ised labor to accept a reductlou of wages.
Kcmedy Possible.
It was mid thia morning by a man of
groat tnfluspse In Ntw York, that his own
Investigation justified him In saying that
If organized labor in three of the greoter
Industries, namely: Building, coal mining
and xallroad, would be willing to accent
wages which would reflect changed condi
tions and reduced cost of living, then In
90 days much of the unemployment would
end becaUFe these industries would he so
uu'ekened by the new attitude of labor to
wards thorn that there would be employ
ment for all, ut leant all who nre compe
tent for service In the railroad, the coal
and In the- building lnduntrleB.
Governor Miller of New York slate has
recently called attention to the fact that
the pew barge canal has' been, so construct
ed ss to contain a potential resource In
the -form of hvdro-electrlo energy equiva
lent to 40.(1(10 horsepower. All thia energy
now goes to was'e. Governor Miller be
lieves that It will be posHihlo to secure
It and he Is to undertake efforts whereby
this 'now wasted energy can bo saved.
Will Stimulate Industry.
If this bo accomplished It will stimu
late Industrial establishment in various
parts of tho state and it will also result
In a considerable saving In the consumo
tion of coal. With the exception of the
great power plant at Niagara Falls and
one at Marsena Springs, where energy
that' is converted Into electric power Is
obt.-led from the St. Lawrence river and
In eddltlon ono or two other plants. New
Yo'i statu 'ls.-fai" behind some of "the
southern states In the utilization of water
power for the creation of electric energy.
There Is to come with tho perfect de
velopment of tho Muscle Shoals resources
n vpt irreat h'-dro-e'ceflo company In the
Birmingham, Ala., district. In about two
yer-'a tre-e wlM hve been roni"et"d a
uam on the Coosa river In Alabama which
will make It possible to produce electric
energy equivalent to 110,000 horsepower.
This dam Is so constructed that n" waste
of water will take place. All of the wa
ter which ilows . over tho dam will do
effective work. Elsewhere In the south
other waterpowers are now under develop
ment or awaiting develonment. , New York
state has abundant waterpower that can
be convertod Into electric energy for all
of the Industry present or contemplated
throughout the state outside of the city
of New York. If Governor Miller ling
his way much of this now wasted energy
will be converted Into electrlo power.
One of Great Resources.
The question haa been asked why, In
view of our almost lnexhaustlbla deposit
of sulphur In Louisiana and Texas, we
should be Importing from Spain pyrites In
large amounts for the sulphur salts which
tho mineral contains. But these Imports
are made because It has been found that
the Spanish pyrites Is the cheapest and
perhaos the best mineral for, conversion
Into sulphurlo acid. ,
Now reoorts reach New York that one
of the companies whose chief vocation Is
the oil Industry has discovered extensive
denosit of sulphur on the gulf coast' of
Texas and Intends speedily to establish
a large plant for the mining of this sul
phur. Imports of pyrites which seem to
have caused some concern will not se
riously affect our sulnhur industry. In
fact we are now exporting enormous qusn
tltles of sulphur, some of It going as far
as Australia. In one month 33.000,000
pounds of sulnhur were exported, much of
it to- Australia and considerable part to
Hamburg. There went out from Galves
ton In August 2,600,000 pounds of sulphur,
much of which was exported to Sweden
and Norway. Not until' tho Washington
authorities lualte detailed report of our
exports will It be known ho great a
share in our foreign trade, at least in the
quantity of goods exported, is reoresented
by sulnhur, the mining of which Is a
new industry in the United States, but
It Is already known that it- Is now an
Important factor w in our foreign trade.

t hirugo Tribune-Omaha Be Lsswstl Wlr.
Chicago, Ort. f.Vheat had a
cood rally durimc the later trading.
The bull market wa beginning 10
become wabbly aflcr mulday. when
a report to the effect that 2.000,000
biiihels of wheat had been worked
for export started short covering and
checked liquidation by longs, who
were showing signs of discourage
ment. The close was ljdfljkjc
higher. Italy was reported to have
taken the bulk of the wheat, much
of which was American.
This same report said that a Ger
man authority estimated German
bread gain requirements at between
1,500.000 and 200,000,000 tons, very
little of which has been bought.
After the close Jack Schreintr said
he was trying te trace the export
business and a wire to Winnipeg re
ceived the'reply that there was no
indication of export business there.
Corn closed ? i Jc higher and oats
up. Kyc was higher to
lie. lower and barley lc higher.
Almost every commission house
seemed to have changed to the bull
side of the wheat market, advising
their clients that a rally was due be
fore the opening.
Buying on Kips.
There was good buying cn all of the
dips today. Offorlngs of May at $1.17
appeared to ha heavy enough to hold the
bulge in chock.
Corn had a strong undertone. The
feature was the lack offsetting pressure.
Some of tho local Interests were inclined
to pick up corn for Investment pur
poses. . Receipts are large, but the corn
1j moving out in large volume, shipments
this morning being posted at 1,021,000
bushels. The demand for cash corn Is
broadening and tho receipts are being
well taken car- of. Offerings to arrive
from the country overnight were small,
but the advance brought out Increased
offerings. Local receipts wero estimated
at 625 cars.
Oats prices rallied, following the estab
lishment of new low levels on the crop
for both deliveries at the start. Locals
sold at the opening, owing to the break
In wheat, but tho market was afforded
supsort by commission houses, who had
resting orders to execute, and this was
followed by a demand from' a prominent
local professional, which combined to
strengthen the situation. Sentiment ap
peared to be less bearish, aa many In
the trade believe tho decline has been
severe enough. The suspension of an
active commission houso whoso open
trades In this cereal were heavy had no
material effect on the market. Local re
ceipts were estimated at 120 cars.
Rye was quiet. Cash No. 2 was quoted
3c under December price. Receipts, one
car. .
Fit Notes.
There was quite a general tendency
among commission houses to modify bear
ish views on wheat and to look for at
least moderate rallies. In corn thera was
a more pronounced bullish sentiment, with
a good class of buying at times aside from
short covering. In some respects the
entire trade was a little more optimistic,
owing to the fact that the transferring of
trades by Simons Day was effected so
eaBily and with so little marked effect,
the trade showing considerable relief
apparently, that no failures had occurred
after such a big decline in prices.
Canadian distillers are said to be buy
ing their usual supplies of corn and it is
estimated they will want 1.000,000 bushels
before the close of navigation.
Argentine wheat markets wero weak,
Buenos Aires being 3' 5o lower yesterday.
Local selling on the weakness in Ameri
can and European markets was the main
Influence, In addition to the splendid crop
prospects. Liverpool December wheat
onened at a decline of 4V4d from yester
day's close.
Kanjas City wired that mills wero mak
ing a big profit on flour on the basis of
present cash wheat prices.

By FRANKLIN K. SPRAGUE.
Chicago Trlbunr-Omalia Be leased W Ire,
New York, Oct. 6. There was
little change in the character of
stock market operations today. Such
price changes as took place repre
sented merely the efforts of pro
fessionals who, for the mo.-t part,
were engaged in an endeavor to fer
ret out weakness in certain issues
or even groups of stocks. Xo great
degree of success attended these ef
forts and on the whole, the market
could not be called other than ir
regular. In some particular instance, as for
instance Mexican I'etroleum, some
sizeable recessions were brought
about, but for the most part such
changes as did take place were rep
resented by fractions. Except in
sofar as American Sumatra tobacco
was specifically concerned, the ac
tion ot the directors in passing the
dividend, which formerly stood at 8
per cent annually, was of no direct
bearing on prices of other securi
ties. Copper Storks Firm,
Possibly the most favorable bit of the
day was the estimate put out by the
director of be geological survey regard
ing the available supply of copper as of
September 1, which showed 406,051 tons.
Sales of copper during September were
relatively heavy and with production at
low ebb, the copper surplus has undoubt
edly been reduced. In response to this,
the copper stocks showed firmness and
some of them made slight gains. Astda
from Mexican p..troleuni, the most pro
nounced degree of weakness was in the
tobacco group wh'ero it appeared that
there was some withdrawal of pool sup
port. aa
The federal reserve statements afford
ed an Interesting display. In tho rase
of reserve ration that for tho system
stood at 69 per cent, a duplicate oi
high for the year, which was made last
week. The ratio of t'he New Tork bank,
on the other hand, fell to 60 as against
83.4 week age Th New York bank
lost t56, 000,000 through the gold set
,!.,,. r,,nH which was Dartly offset
by decline In deposits of about $32,000,000.
' Note Increase.
On the other hand, federal reserve
notes In circulation lnc?ased by $11,000,
000 The total gold holdings of the New
York bank dropped Just under the bil
lion dollar mark which was sot during
the week of September 28. In tho re
port for tha system, a 'new high record
of gold reserves was established at $2,
732,599,000, deposits declined some $21,
000,000 and federal reserve note circula
tion Increased by about $55,000,000.
Tha fnr-iirii hank statements do not
present a particularly favorable situation.
For instance, reserve ratio n
of the Bank of England dropped to
14 40 per cent, whereas last week it stood
at' 18.61, the high for the year. The
ratio Is, however, stl'l well above the
low of 8.83 per cent of last January.
Increase In loans on
government securities and an Increase In
public and private deposits of approx
imately 29,000.000 pounds. The statement
of the Kelchsbank gave a further index
of the unstable financial situation that
prevails In Germany.

Louise, who is working "The Beauty

Strange to say, Montagu Love

rather talk about the future of the
drama than any other subject.
