Few are pessimis- tic enough to believe that the misun- @erstanding will widen into a more serious breach between the two coun- tries. Two Conflicting Points. The two sharply conflicting points of view which were presented to a correspondent of the Associated Press by Swedish and English members of the commission do not, however, promise any immediate settlement of the dispute, nor do they contain enough in common to suggest the pos- sibility of compromise. The English members of the commission argue that a large amount of supplies, many of which are directly connected with the maintenance of an army and the ier a Wonderful : portunity to the dies’ of New Brit- and Vicinity e of our complete showing of S, COATS, SKIRTS, DRESSES, and PETTICOATS for the FALL and jpection of materials and workmanship will fainly convince you that we are right in ex- jou an invitation to look over our carefully L.

They contend L‘hat a conspicuous increase in' Swedish imports beyond her own needs is evidence that these supplies find a way to Germany and that a great many of them are articles which Germany particularly needs, notably meat, coffee, cocoa, copper and lu- bricants of various sorts. Being as- sured that these are destined for Germany, Ingland claims the right to place such cargoes in the prize courts and is enforcing this right. It is admitted that these cargoes are vouched for by Swedish merchants as having Swedish consignees as tnerr ultimate destination but it is claimed that through intermediate steps in Sweden they find their way finally in- to Sweden. It is also stated by tae English members of the commission that the collusion of Swedish shippers with Germany has led to the deliber- ate surrender of ships and cargoes to German vessels and that their capture was part of a prearranged plan. Eng- lish commissioners admit the right of Sweden to continue the export of her own products to Germany and to im- port any quantity of goods that it may be reasonably suppos: is for Swedish consumption, but argues that this amount should not exceed her normal imports. Calling attention to her increase in imports, the English commissioners ask Sweden to guar- antee that supplics except for home manufactures will not be sent to Germany or in other words that there shall be no transit of sSupplies through Sweden to Germany. Rigid Export Laws. The Swedish members of the com- mission reply that her export laws gre rigidly enforced by the govern- ment prohibiting the sending of ar- ticles to Germany and that exceptions are only made to this prohibitory list when she is forced into an exchange of supplies with Germany by a short- cge of mnecessary articles in her country, caused in many cases by England’s restriction of her imports. There are some articles such as ani- line dyes, medical goods and certain kinds of machinery which Sweden can cbtain from Germany and in order to get these necessary supplies she must extend to Germany special licenses contrary to her prohibitory rcgulations. But it is contended that these supplies which Germany obtaing under these conditions are almost negligible. Swedish commissioners claim that she is justified in refusing to guarantee the stoppage of all transit to Germany, because as an in- dependent nation, she has a right to trade with one country as well as another and that if England sees fit to hold up her imports, she will refuse {o transit supplies to Russia. The issue which has caused a dead- lock is the quantity of supplies sent to Germany under the special licenses contrary to Sweden’s list of forbidden exports. The English members of the commission have called for exact figures showing the export to Ger- many, but such statistics it is claimed by the Swedish government are not available. The English and Swedish members of the commission ‘also dis- dgree as to the usefulness to Germany for military purposes of such articles as copper which are on Sweden’s free list. - The English argue that whether the copper is one kind or an- other, it can be converted into copper for military use in Germany and that large quantities of copper, oil and cot- ton have found transit into Germany. _'Some Statistics Misleading. Although some. of the selected sta- tistics available in Sweden are mis- leading, they . support the English contention that Swedish_imports of the articles mentioned have in some cases been trebled since the begin- ning of the war. The declaration: of cotton as contraband has of course eliminated articles from the discus- sion. From investigations made by an impartial observer in Sweden, it is clear that although greatly decreased WOMEN CAN HARDLY BELIEVE How Mrs. Hurley Was Re. stored to Health by Lydi: E.

For two could not walk two blocks without en- during cutting and drawing pains down my right side which increased every month. Ihave been at that time purple in the face and would walk the floor. I could not lie down or sit still sometimes for a day and a night at a time. I was nervous, and had very little appetite, no ambition, melancholy, and often felt as though I had not a friend in the world. After I had tried most every female remedy without suc- cess, my mother-in-law advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I did so and gained in strength every day. I have now no trou- ble in any way and highly praise your medicine. It advertises itself.”’—Mrs. S. T. HURLEY, Eldon, Missouri. Remember, the remedy which did this was Lydia E.

After arriving and being vouched for by Swedish con- signees, these supplies often pass through as many as a dozen hands before their shipment to Germany. Many Swedish merchants have frank- ly stated that when they could not! only command better prices but serve their own inclinations by shipping to Germany they found no reason for not doing so. Stockholm hotels are full | of German agents who confess secret- 1y that they are satisfied with the way business is going. Since no figures are available any estimate of the quantity of supplies going to Germany is merely specula- tive, hut it may safely be ‘said that enough is going to Germany to be a material factor in her economic con- dition. WILLIAM L. SAUNDERS, AN INVENTOR, ON THE NAVY ADVISORY BOARD BLASTER EXPLAINS SUBWAY GAVE-IN Mezzanotte, Who Directed Ex- plosions, Tells of Disaster New York, Sept. 24.—The work of clearing up the new Seventh avenue subway where a cave-in Wednesday caused the death of seven persons and the injury of nearly 100 others pro- ceeded rapidly yesterday. No addi- tional bodies were found. Reports trom the hospitals were that most of the injured would recover. Only a few cases, it was said, are still in a serious condition. The official in tigations in pro- gress by several city departments have not yielded any definite results as to the cause and responsibility for the accident. The officials promise, how- | cver, that a thorough inquiry will be made. Tells Graphic Story.: An interesting development of the day was the graphic story told by August Mezzanotte, the blaster who directed the explosions that are gen- erally held to hve catsed the .col- lupse of the wooden pavement. Mez- zanotte disappeared immediately af- ter the accident, but yesterday he ap- peared at the district attorney’s bffice, accompanied by counsel, and told of his part in the affair. Mezzanotte related in detail how three positions were prepared for blasting. The first blast, set off at 7:50 a. m., he said, was a success. Took Unusual Precautions, Before setting off the second blast, Mezzanotte said, he took the precautions, including the sending out of flagmen to stop traffic, and when this was done he gave the signal that the blast be fired. “In three or four seconds,’ Mezza- usual | | bimself he was at the notte said, ‘“the deck (wooden pave- you wear it at William Lawrence Saunders, a member of the naval advisory board, is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania.
