Schenck & Son, Philadelphia AMERICA WILL LEAD IN GOLD MINING Probable Result of New War Tax- ation in Great Britain (Correspondence of the Assoclated Press.) London, Oct. 31-—American suprem- acy in gold mining is one of the prob- able results of the new war taxation in Great Britain. While the large gold mines of the world have been mainly opened and managed by American mining engineers they have been owned by the British because of a system of finance which brings public money to the support of mining much more generally than in America where the investing public does not take the same interest in the industry. This structure whereby London has become the mining capital of the wold, is now threatened by the new ‘‘excess profits tax,” one of the features of the new war budget. Discussing the effect of the new tax, a prominent American mining engi- neer said: “Already orders have gone out from London to transfer to Amer- ican companies several times in South and Central America, and plans for an extensive transfer of control of other mines are, under discussion in the city. Even in ordinary times the insistence of the British authorities that income tax must be paid on all shares of com- panies controlled in Great Britain re- gardless of the location of the mine or residence of the stockholders had driven some companies away, notably the El Oro of Mexico largely owned in France which moved its offices to Paris two years ago. “The most recent taxation makes a more general migration almost certain. eveland team in that league led 10 | mhe new budget proposed a fifty per mors today that tke Indians are n the market.

Wind distends the stomach d causes that full, oppressive feel- sometimes known as heartburn hile the acid irritates and inflames e delicate lining of the stomach. The buble lies entirely in the ex- sivg secretion of acid and fermen- jon of food. Such fermentation is natural, and may involve harmful sequences if not corrected. To bp or prevent fermentation of food Intents of the stomach and to neu- Llize the acid, and render it bland a4 harmless, a teaspoonful of bisu- ed magnesia, perhaps the best and bst -effective corrector of acid stom- Khown, should be taken in a arter of a glass of hot or cold wa- immediately after eating, or when- r wind or acidity is felt. This ps the fermentation, and neutralizes b acidity in a few moments: Fermen- jon, wind and acidity are unneces- y. Stop or prevent them by the b of a proper ant-acid such as bisu- ed magnesia, which can be ob- neq, from any druggist and thus hble the stomach to do its work bperly without being hindered by B and excessive acids. e the ladies of New Britain interested in a special af- oon for ladies’ clubs or rties, at the excess is to be determined by sub- tracting from the increase of the current year the average income of any two of the preceding three years. This would be particularly hard on any new business, but extremely so in the case of mines which have just be- gun to produce, since in their case there would be nothing to subtract, and consequently the tax would be fifty per cent, of the profit of the year. This new import, it is to be not- ed, is in addition to the ordinary taxa- tion including the income tax. The effect on new enterprises would be especially severe in the case of mines since they require liberal expenditure through several years to bring them to production. The Brakpan in South Africa, for example, opened by W. L. Honnold, a Michigan mining engineer, absorbed six million dollars in six vears and then began to making a profit of about one and one-half mil- lion dolars a year. Tae Spring mine nearby is now building a new plant and would normally soon come into production. These companies, though organized in South Africa, and already paying heavy regular and special war taxes, would come under the new plan. The gold mining interests point out taat unlike the rubber and tea com- panies, they are not able to charge an increase due to the war, but the cost of mining has risen materially as a re- sult of the war, but the cost of mining has risen materially as a result of la- bor shortage, disorganized transport and increased cost of supplies- Divi- dends from a mine are a wasting asset and taxing these profits is like taxing a man on the money he draws from a savings bank. Taxation To Be Heavy. “Representations are being maae and some modifications of the original plan are expected, but in any event the taxation on mines is sure to be heavy with no opportunity to recoup by raising prices. A number of com- panies have issued orders to cut-down production to the average of previous yvears and are stopping all work of ex- pansion. “As Great Britain’s ownership of the great gold mines extends around the world and into many countries, wide changes in the industry are certain and they may become of primary import- ance to the growth of America in fi- nancial power.” KIRMESS A SUCCESS, The kirmess of St. Joseph’s church came to a close last evening, and was a pronounced success from all angles.

Transfer of the liquor license held by the Hardware City Cafe at 112 Hartford avenue to Harry Alex, a hearing on which was slated before the county commissioners yesterday. is being opposed by Jeremiah Sull- ivan of Hartford, who secured an in- junction from Judge Joseph P. Tuttle restraining the transfer. Yes- ‘terday Judge Tuttle ordered Mr. Sullivan to post a bond of $1,000 that the cafe company may be com- pensated in the event that the plain- tiff does not make good his allega- tons. In praying for the injunction, Mr. Sullivan alleged that about July 10 of this vear, he and J. J. Carroll and Michael Gumbus formed a cc poration for the purpose of conduct- ing a liquor business at 112 Hart- ford avenue, the corporation havire a capital of $1,000, divided into ten shares of $100 each. In considera- tion of his work in promoting the corporation aid securing the licens five shares of stock were assigned to | him. Gumbus retained four shares and Carroll one share. Continuing, Sullivan complains that on or about July 10, the defendant by fraud- ulent promises, representations and inducements, alleged to have been | made for the purpose of deceiving him, did so deceive him, and that he assigned and set over his flve shares in blank, which blanks, he alleges, were later filled in to read Mrs. Gum- bus, who was not at the time and who, he says, was never a member | of the corporation. Sullivan alleges | the assignment by him was without | consideration, It is Sullivan’s belief that Carroll has assigned his one share of stock to Mrs. Gumbus and that the whole corporation is now in the possession of Gumbus and his wife and that they are about to sell the business for $13,000, which would represent a profit of $3,000 to them. He claims $2,000 of this amount as his share and has thus taken measures to have his claims adjudicated. WOMAN'’S CLUB ENTERTAINED. Annual Guest Night Highly Successful Social Event.

UNPARALLELED LEAP IN STEEL TRADE Demand Is Great Despite Advance of Prices New York, Nov. 11.—The Iron Age ; | says today: The Steel Corporation's statement that its unfilled orders increased 847, 000 tons last month gave the first definite measure of the steel trade's sensational leap forward in October. This is an unparalleled record but is thus only in keeping with all other developments in the current market: Price advances have had no effect of curtailing demand; it is in fact heavier now than at any other stage in the present remarkable movement. In the past week pig iron, billets and a number of finished produets have ' gone higher. In general, Northern pig irons are 50c a ton higher, bil- lets and sheet bars $1, forging bil- lets $3, bars, plates and shapes $2, light rails $2.50, spikes $3, bands. $1, shafting $6 and some grades of scrap 50c to $1. scarcity of Material. The reity of certain forms of material is more serious than the ad- vances in price.

Ex- ports in September of products re- ported by weight were 381,000 tons, against 401,000 tons in August. Values of all iron and steel exports including machinery, were $38,400,- 000, against $37,727.000 in Augus The scarcity of vessel room may have prevented the increase looked for in September, but thg statistics raise the question whether the war export movement has reached its height. Prices Advance. Shipments .under bar, plate and shape contracts are being made at $5 to $8 a ton below the new 1.60c, Pitts- burg level. Consequently specifica- tions are exceedingly heavy and some consumers may be able to add to their stocks in this way, but they are the exception. Warehouse prices have be advanced $3 a ton for leading prod- | such | mills | ucts and the demand upon stocks has grown rapidly as have been compelled to turn buyers away. Plate mil sition than structural business in shapes could be done, and probably 1.50¢ while plates and bars are stiff at 1.60c. In vessel plates the demand has rolled up to imposing propor- tions, 20,000 tons having just closed in the East.

Some urgent inquiries for war bars are up, and in the past week on 26,- 000 tons for KFrance, for which de- livery was wanted within two or three months, $15 a ton above the market was offered but no mill could take the order. Deliveries on some of the cars now under inquiry will depend more on steel mills than on car shops. About 10,500 cars were placed in the week and roundly 35000 are before the market. Railroads will feel the pinch of car scarcity before the makers can come to their relief. , The Chicago & Northwestern has made definite an order for 40,000 tons of rails against its general reserva- tion, and the Rock Island receivers have been authorized to buy 40,000 tons for 1916. .

Meal times were our busiest; and eating too much and too quickly of food such as is commonly served in hotels and res- taurants, to gether with the sedentary habits, were not long in giving me dyspepsia and stomach trouble which reduced my weigat from 205 to 160 pounds- “There was little relish in any food and none of it seemed to do me any good. It seemed the more I ate the poorer I got and was alw hungry before another meal, no matter how much I had eaten. “Then I commenced a trial of Grape-Nuts food, and was surprised how a small saucer of it would carry me along, strong and with satisfied ap- petite, until the next meal, with no sensations of hunger, weakness or distress as before. “I have been following this diet now for several months and my improve- ment has been so great all the others in my family have taken up the use of Grape-Nuts with complete satisfac; tion and much improvement in healt: “Most people eat hurriedly, have lots of worry, thus hindering digestion and therefore need a food that is pre- digested and concentrated in nourish- ment.” “There's a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich, Ever read the above letter?

It is probable that at the December sitting of the Connecticut state prison directors, action may be taken on the petition for the parole of William F. Walker, the New Britain embezzler, which was presented yesterday by the Baptist state convention. As has already been told in the Herald, at the state convention of the Baptists last month it was decided to petition for Walker’s parole. The members of the convention believed the ends of the justice had been met and that Walker had been sufficiently punished for his speculations from the Savings Bank of New Britain.

MILL STREET TROUBLE ENDS, Ten Property Owners Agree on Divi- slon and Will Sign Waivers, Trouble which resulted from changes made in the layout of Mill street at the South Main street end is believed to have been practically set- tled by the special council committee at a session held last night. Ten of the property owners interested wer present and agreed to sign waivers provided the land in question is divid- ed. Corporation Counsel J. E. Coop- er and City Engineer W. H.

Some years ago the board of com- ensation and assessment awarded damages for about $850, but after last night's meeting it was announced that a settlement had been reached for about half that amount. Two other property owners remain to be eeen. The committee is to recommend that the matter be settled as agreed last | night and the division of the street made at once.
