The trolley car and jitney crashed head on and the automobile occupants were thrown out, all being injured.

BY SWEDEN'S MOVE Final arrangements for tho recep-! purposes of the encampment and hav- tion and entertainment of the Grand |ing, with the exception of the capitol Army veterans at their forty-ninth an. nual encampment, in during the week of September 27, have now been completed. To cor- rect any impression which might he gained by the association of ideas, it should be stated that the encampment is not to be a tented affair. The re- union will not be held under canvas, as has been the case with these af- fairs in many cities. Instead ‘the Washington citizen’s committee has provided for the use of the veterans a itself, the largest ground floor space of any structure in the city. This census was compiled and stands on First street, adjoining tho capitol plaza. The main floor is divided into two mammoth auditoriums, in one of which the big reception on Tuesday night and the regular business ses- sion of the encampment will be held. The other has been set aside for campfires and the dog watch of the naval veterans. On the floor above there is a row of twenty or more building adequately adapted for the)rooms wherein the various eorps and | action of the ! departments will have their individual Washington, | pyilding is the one in which the last | headquarters throughout the reunion. A feature of the arrangements never | heretofore provided will be a branch post office established in the encamp- { ment building, to which will be as- signed by the postmaster of Wash- ington a force of clerks who will handle all incoming and outgoing mail for the veterans, and all correspond- ence intended for the visitors should be addressed to the encampment head- \quarters.

Certain minor exceptions will exist, the most important of which is fish; and pork and bacon can still be exported under special licenses; but the order is as abeolute and inflexible. as possible under the circumstances and Bwe- den’s export trade in food is for the time being, and probably as long as the war lasts almost completely at an end. Although it has been knowledge that Germany has been substantially helped by Sweden n the matter of food, the extent of this help has only been revealed by frag- mentary figures which are now avall- able. The prohibitory order has been for a long time delayed by a desire expressed by the government to first count the amount of stock on hand in Sweden and determine whether it had actually fallen low enough to make the prohibition im- perative. The results of this inves- tigation are startling. 162,,000. Cattle Exported, During the first year of the war 162,000 cattle have been exportod, practically the whole stock going to Germany- This is fully a 300 per cent. increase over the ordinary ex- port before the war, During ‘the same length of time 500,000 hogs, alive or slaughtered, have been sent out of Sweden to foreign markets, al- though in this case a large percentage has gone to England. The couning of stock showed that whereas Swe- den was expected to have for homie consumption 1,400,000 hogs, now has on hand less than half this num- ber. The alarming scarcity of pro- visions shown by the investigations, together with the popular outery azainst the high prices which actual- ly placed the common nccessities of life beyond the reach of the poor con- sumer, resulted in the order prohib- iting further export. Tt is thought that this order will soon bs extend- ed to all food, Soon after the outbreak of the war, thousands of German buyers swarmed into Sweden, who did what they could, even in the smallest vil- lages, to buy up all available meat and vegetabless Duly organized and with special central offices establish- common lhave been installed in the building. Thrilling Tales of Rescue Told by Survivors of Burning Greek Liner Bearing 400 persons rescued from (the persons saved the Greek steamship Athinai, which burned on the Atlantic 350 miles southeast of Halifax, the Anchor liner Tuscania, a sorrowful looking vessel in her gray paint, but a justly proud RS S N R AR SR S AR S UMY U Y # Tusmac S siees forty-five were “Nobody lost,” was the ed out when she reached quarantine. Every one of the pass- engers and crew of the 4,224 ton Greek ship was rescued. But Thom- as Sotir, a second cabin passenger of American word pas rescue ship, arrived in New York. Of / Meadville, Pa., died of heart disease - on the Tuscania fifteen hours after he had been taken aboard.- All the others were reported none the worse for their experience, though sad over the loss of their belongings- The re- port by wireless that a passenger had committed suicide before he could he rescued was not true late Thursday ran over a three year old girl named Anna Budney, who suddenly ran from the bushes beside the road. The child was taken to Middlesex hospital at Middletown, suffering from a fractured skull and died yesterday. | RECEIVING SHIP CONDEMNED. Norfolk, Va., Sept. 25.—The old re- ceiving ship Franklin, which has been in the service of the United States for & century, has been condemmned by a naval board of survey and probably will be sold for junk. TO STUDY U. S. CONDITIONS. Tokio, Japan, Sept. 25.—Ten rep- resentative Japanese journalists will sail for San Francisco today for the { which now prevalil, purpose of studying conditions in the United States. ed, where food accumulated, live stock was slaughtered, canner and exported to Germany. Allow Short Respite. At Landscrona and Malmo, factor- ies were built and no detall was omit- ted in the systematic attempt to make ‘the export as high as possible. A temporary step taken by the Swedish government last January forbidding the export of all tinned goods al- lowed Sweden a short respite from a system which was draining her of supplies which were necessary for home consumption. But by varSNus dodges, and principally by exporting the same amount of meat in form of live stock or slaughtered cattle, 'the export soon reached its former height, Swedish dealers were encouraged to continue this excessive and disastrous export by the enormous prices which were offered by Germans. Food prices began to mount daily and with alarm- ing bounds until it was evident that a continuance of exports would lesd to the actual starvation of BSweden. The scarcity and the almost prohibi- tive prices placed upon articles of food ‘which always had been regarded as the simple necessities of life, have caused plready acute suffering among the poorer clas<es. In addition to the prohibition of exports, food commissions are already fixing maximum prices on the ordin- ary food commoditiess Milk which has been selling Jor about six certs a litre has already fallen to five cents at the instructions of the commision, and a maximum price of six dollars and a quarter per hundred kilos of wheat has been set by the govern- ment, to last until the fifth of Octo- ber. Reduce Speculative Prices. It is thought that (he prohibition of exports and the recsSmmenilations made by the commission will effec- tively reduce the speculative prices but to further help in the matter and to do away with the middlemen, and agents’ com- missions, the government has es- tablished a food bureau, with branch offices all over the country, to buy all avialable supplies and sell them directly to the consumer without pro- fit. This will undoubtedy be of ma- terial assistance in the effort to send prices downward. Pork today is 85 cents per kilo. A vear ago it was 46 cents. Butter now 80 cents, a year ago 50 centss Eggs now fifty cents for twenty, year ago twenty-five cents. Beef now seventy- five cents, formerly thirty cents. It appears from this increase of 100 per cent. that food prices are at present higher in Sweden than in any country in Europe.
