New York, Aug. 15.—This country is rapidly settling down to a war basis. The initial shock to business has been safely passed without grave | disaster on this side, and as a people we are now gradually resuming such | activities as can and must be carcied | The strong efforts to steady the general situation | emanating from leaders in the busi-| ness world are having their beneficent ! effect. Courage, consideration and co-operation are working wonders in important relief is the announce- ments. The most thus far obtained ment that Great Britain has been | able to reopen transatlantic —com- munication, with the prospect thi other avenues of sea transport may soon be reasonably safe for com- merce. We will shortly be able to ship our, surplus wheat and cotton, for which we need the proceeds quite as much as Europe will need the products, There has also been con- siderable relief in the foreizn ex- change situation, although that branch of commerce is still badly d moralized. The establishment of the moratorium abr. leav interna- | tional transactions in ‘a state of de- plorable confusion; but these are the exigencies .of war and must be faced as best they can for some time to come. Financial London has partially récovered its equilibrium, and the re- duction of the Bank of England rate is a decidedly reassuring symptom. Its action, also in opening a credit agency at Ottewa will be materially | helptul both here and abroad. The | resumption of the London Stock Ex- | change for business, however, is re- mote; the impossibility of closing up transactions with many of the prin- cipal centers of Europe being a prob- lem of the most serious character. There is no immediate prospeét of opening the New York Stock EX- change, but much rellef will result from the appointment of the commit- } tee of five to pass on the buying of securities for cash at not less than | the closing prices of July 30. This will allow the -completion of many legitimate contracts, and will prevent any demoralization in security values through excessive trading. Practic- ally it means that this market will be | sustained at about the last prices of the 30th of July when the New York Stock Exchange closed. Extensive | efforts have been made to safeguard the money situatjon, and our bankers are, of course, all exercising unusual precautions in credit operations. Hap- pily this country is in splendid posi- tion to stand the strain imposed by a vast European war. It is but reason- able that we should now place a fair estimate upon the offsets.

While Europe cannot expect the Unit- ed States to finance the war, we are quite likely to give important aid in the matter of extending credit and relieving foreign bankers of - their usual seasonal financing of American products. We may even find it to our advantage to aid finance the war if such funds are used to pay for our wheat, cotton, etc. Our surplus food supplies will be sold to Europe at a handsome profit. *~ The world may consume less cotton next vear, but Lancashire Is hungry for the fleecy staple thatf must be had in order to keep her mills going and her export markets satisfied with cotton fabrics Germany will unfortunately suffer tremendous loss in export trade, which neither Great Britain nor France will be able to make good. Some of the articles which Germany produces for export, of course, canngt be dupli- cated; but there would seem to be no reason why many of the big orders which she receives for steel products should not come to the United States, especially as Great Britain will not be able to satisfy such demands. Ger- many, moreover, has an immense overseas commerce aggregating about $4,500,000,000, which will be partially lost and may be permanently im- paired. German vessels have car- ried on an enormous transatlantic trade with both North and America and also with the far east. A very considerable portion of this might be won by the United States dld we possess an adeguate merchant marine. for such a movement, intelligent legislative action is need- ed. If we are to regain our former prestige upon the high seas we must be able to build and operate ships as | cheaply as our competitors, Unless we go in on the same basis as our rivals important success would be very doubtful. Congress is now con- sidering new legislation upon this im- portant subject, 'and it is to be hoped that the shackles which have imped- ed our American development will now be permanently removed. For | many years we have been fully occu- | | pied in building railroads for the de- velopment of our domestic trade Now we need to build ships to develop cign trade; and as the situation is such that we cannot wait unti these vessels are constructed, we must seize the opportunity by buying the best ships on the best terms that may be obtained. No Longer Polite. The Buropean nations are no longer polite to each other, all being at lo gerheads, and not untfl “the hurl burly’s done and the battle’s lost and won” will there be peace. Who could have dreumed that in this twentie century, with civilization in its pre: ent advanced stage, that history would repeat itself in the barbaric fighting now going on between the nations of Europe. However, the expenditure of $50,000,000 a day for war needs, as at present, will eventually be an important factor in bringing about peace and the laying down of the lion and the lamb together. Should this resull in a general disarmament or all nations it would go far towara compensating fot the loss in lives and treasure, as general armament was certainly leading to the general bank- ruptey of almost the entire world.

Yielding to an impish desire to play a good joke on her friends, Miss Frances Kolpak, of 315 ‘Washington street quietly sneaked into her father's bed room at midnight last night and the male attire and carrying her shoes in her hands so as to make as little noise as possible she silently 'stole out of the house and hied her- | self to 69 Orange street where she stamped upon the porch and began to | rattle the blinds, thinking to scare her friends who were sleeping peace- ully within. Here she made a bad error for she shook he wrong blinds and straightway two big, bold men came rushing out and chased her down the street where she ran into the arms of Officer Dolan, at the cor- ner of High and Broad streets, The patrolman brought her to the { police station and this morning she was glven a sound lecture about how undignified and unladylike it is for a female to dress in the attire of the masculine. She admitted that it was rather a bold thing to do and prom- ised to think twice before she acts in the future. She was then permitted to go home with her father. In explaining her queer action Frances told Captain Grace that she had a tooth pulleq yesterday and could not sleep. Then it was that the idea of playing a prank on her friends occurred to her. After don- ning her father's Sunday regalia she went to the Orange street house and began to rattle the blinds, thinking to frighthen her friends. In this she was mistaken as recorded above.
