EMBASSY FLEES RUSSIAN CAPITAL Norwegian Consul Now in Charge of American Affairs at Petro grad.' (By Associated Frets.) The American consul in Petrograd, who remained in the Russian capital after the departure of Ambassador Francis and his staff, also Has -left, and the consulate has been taken over by the Norwegian consul. It is felt in Stockholm that the situation in Petrograd has taken an unexpected turn for the worse. Although the American, British and French embassies have left Petrograd under the menace of the German ad vance, the bolshevik government is reported as intending to return to its headquarters in that city after having temporarily left the capital. Apparently the Japanese ambas sador is still in Petrograd, having postponed his , departure, an agency dispatch states, because of nego tiations going on between him and the Russian government. Whether these reported negotiations have any thing to do -with the Japanese pro posals for intervention in Siberia is not evident from the meager advices received. , Meanwhile the current reports from Petrograd indicate a renewal of the German forward movement in Rus sia, although at a more measured pace. , On two sectors of the western front, American soldiers have successfully countered the tactics of the enemy. Northwest of Toul American gunners have wiped out the German batteries which bombarded the American posi tions earlier in the week with gas shells. Along the Chemin-des-Dames American machine guns and artillery fire repulsed a strong enemy attack with losses. Airmen Locate Batteries. Airplanes having located the batter ies, whose gas shells had caused' six deaths and the poisoning of 80 others, the heavy guns in the American line destroyed the enemy positions in a half hour's shelling. Material was thrown high in the air and several explosions were caused by the accuracy of the American fire. The Germans are believed to have Suf fered casualties during the bombard ment. A heavy barrage fire preceded' the German attack on the Chemin-des-Dames. As the enemy advanced they were met by a hail of machine gun bullets and then came a deluge of shells. The Germans retreated hast ily. Five French soldiers were wounded in the fighting, but there were no American casualties. This sector also has been subjected to German gas attacks, which, how ever, were not as enective as on the sector east of St Mihiel. On the British and French fronts there has been no change. In Italy small patrol and artillery actions continue. Learn From the Cemetery; No One Worries There In an article in the March American Magazine one man says to another, who was very sensitive and worried a great deal: "'Exactly,' he grunted. 'A few years ago they were live men like you and me. They grew up and did their business and loved and married and died. Some of them passed hap pily along their way, believing the best of their fellows, doing their jobs whole-heartedly and well, spreading a bit of sunshine among the folks they came into contact with,- extracting every drop of sweetness trom every single day. And others went through, wrapped up inside their own little selves, envying their neighbors, fancy ing themselves abused, worrying over trifles, always on the lookout for slights, spoiling a full 50 per cent of their days through their own petti ness. And a few days pass, and they all are laid out here together, the men who laughed their way through life and made others laugh a little more, and the men who gnawed their hearts out. All lying side by side, never to live again. "'Think of the things that those dead men worried about. What do they amount to now? Think of the good luck that they envied in other fellows. Who in the world remembers it? They had one little lifetime to live, and they spoiled it by oversensi tiveness and jealousy. Doesn't it strike you as an awfully foolish way to waste a lifetime, when it's the only lifetime that you will ever have?'" Kaiser Sends Greetings To Agricultural Society Amsterdam, March 1. Emperor William in acknowledging a mes sage of homage from the German Agricultural society, telegraphed the following message: "Your loyal greeting has gratified me and again convinced me that I , shall not be deceived in my confi dence in the efficiency, energy and ready sacrifice of the German agri culturists. The army and navy have achieved tremendous things. The German sword has prepared the way for peace. German industry and perseverence will bring us a blessed future. Look ahead; trust in God. My thanks are accompanying your labors." , OIARDIN0 IN CADORNA'S SEAT ON COUNCIL IS " - i 1 1 M- if According to cable dispatches from Paris, General Cadorna, formerly commander-in-chief of the Italian army, has been replaced, as Italian delegate to the supreme war council by General Gaetana Giardino, assist ant chief of staff to General Diaz, the present Italian commander-in-chief. War Time and Diamonds . And Some Other Things Are war times inevitably hard times? Is the economic pinch wholly different than from that existing in times of so-called peace and plenty? We hear much these days of cold and hunger, and the pressure of high prices for the necessities of life. And yet, here are-conditions to give us pause. . . ... "Very sorry, , madam," says the salesman in. the piano store, "we're not renting instruments this season. We find it hard, Jo keep up with our sales." "Platinum wrist watches? Well, just at present we're out -of them, madam. You see the .demand is so great. Perhaps you could call in again, in a few days." Hard times! " "Not on your life," says the jew elry man. And the piano man laughs in your face. But perhaps, you point out, this shortage in stock is the result of the shortage in materials. Perhaps this joyous demeanor on the part of. the man is a mere bluff to hide his dis comfiture. Well, just look at these figures for yourself. In 1915 the import of uncut dia monds into America was something over' $8,000,000 in value. In 1910 it rose to $20,000,000. In 1917, owing to the lessened output in the Nether lands, it fell again to $14,000,000, al most double what it was in times of peace. In 1915 the import of pearls was lit tle more than $1,000,000 in value. In 1916 it rose to $10,000,000. In 1917 it fell again to $4,000,000, owing not to the lack of demand but to the diffi culties in transporting the supplies. The trade in other precious stones showed equal, if not superior, ad vances, the total imports of jewelry in the United States for the firs't ten months of 1917 being in excess of $34,000t000. "If you look over the history of our trade in any country during times of war you'll find the same conditions." STOCK YARDS WAGE HEARINGJEARS END Advisory Superintendent of Many Swift Plants Says Eight Hours at This Time Impractical. Chicago, March 1. Taking of tes timony in the stock yards wage arbi tration is nearing completion. The packers expect to call their last wit nesses tomorrow, after which there will be several days given to rebut tal testimony and arguments of coun sel before Federal Judge Samuel Al schuler, the arbitrator, takes the case under advisement At today's session Chester S. Churchill, advisory superintendent for Swift and company's plants at Chicago, Denver, Omaha, Kansas City. St. Joseph, East St. Louis, St. Paul and Fort Worth, testified that in his opinion it would be impractical to install the eight hour day without ex tensive alterations in building and equipment because of lack of tanks and cooling room space. He said the change would decrease production of the plants during the war. The wit ness said he had not seriously con sidered the adoption of the eight hour day until last summer. He believed in extra compensation for overtime and holidays and said Swift and company never worked men overtime if it could be avoided. Bought 12,000 Friday. i Attorney Frank P. Walsh, for the employes, asked the witness if he did not think there would be a great sav ing of men, energy and money if the government operated the packing plants during the war. The witness declined to express an opinion on the subject. Attorney Walash read statistics tending to show that the big packers had not been operating at their maxi mum capacity for several months. He referred to a decrease in the price of hogs in Chicago of 50 cents yesterday and 40 cents the day be fore and asked the witness if the packers at times did not refuse to buy live stock so as to depress prices. Mr. Churchill said he did not. have anything to do with buying live stock. Attorney Walsh said the packers only bought 12,000 hogs in Chicago yesterday, although they have a kill ing capacity of 38,600 and that as a result of the small amount pur chased 25,000 were left over unsold until today. Quaker Three-Cushion Cue Star Has Enviable Record Otto Reislet, Philadelphia repre sentative in the Interstate Three Cushion league, has made a record this year of which he may well be proud. He is the only player who has been ale to win all his matches from Maupome, the Mexican cue wizard, who represents a St. Louis billiard room. Last week he won two games in one day from Maupome, establish ing a record by running out a 50-point match in 37 innings. The former rec ord was 39 innings, made by McCourt. He also tied the high run record by makine 10 noints in one inning. Mau pome scored only 47 points in the two matches. The speaker is the editor of the Jew eler's Circular, the authoritative bulle tin on the trade. "It's easy to account for it. The people who had money, perhaps, are suffering, but others who never had it are making it in quanti ties that they never expected to have." New York World. With the Bowlers Grain Exchange.
