U. S. RAILS FOR CHINA, Chinese Minister in Pittsburg Plan- | ning For Constructing Railroad. ! 4 Pittsburg, Nov. 26.—C. T. Hsia, | an engineer of the Chinese ministry | of communications, arrived in Pitts- burgh last night, and spent today in consultation with manufacturers of steel rails and other railroad supplies | and equipment. The Chinese govern- | Hent, he said, contemplates the con- struction of four thousand miles of railroad. Heretofore construction in China has been under the direction of European engineers, with the result that European equip- ment has been favored. The war makes such purchases now so diffi- cult that the Chinese government has turned to the United States.

Burcau of Foreign and Domestic Com- merce Washington- November, 26,—The announcement that new United States regulations relative to export procedure will be- come effective January 1, 1916, has; created such intense interest among manufacturers and shippers that the bureau of foreign and domestic com- merce, department of commerce, has found it necessary to reprint the new with explanatory text. That pamphlet is just off the press and is| being supplied free of charge those interested, upon application to the above-mentioned office. All ship- ments for export to foreign countries | or to Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico will be affected by the new regulations. Accuracy of statement and com- pleteleness of description in export | statistics are the primary objects of ' the new procedure. Heretofore the data received by the Bureau of Ior- eign and Domestic Commerce has fre- quently been lacking in these respects, largely by reason of the fact that in- terior shippers consign to their agents at the seaboard for export goods un- to ordered stomach—treat the liver, | or eweeten the stomach, and the | heod is cured.

A simplified form of shippers’ ex- port declaration has been prescribed, Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and Fresh Every Day Drink a glass of real hot water before breakfast to wash out polsons. RS Life is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condi- tion to attain, and vet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid sto- mach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day’'s indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins thus | ment of the value of allke for exports by rail and by ves- sel. It is so drawn up as to prevent the disclosure of the value of goods to persons outside the customs ser- vice. The duplicate to be handed over to the shipper's agent at the seaboard or to the common carrier as proof of compliance with customs requirements will contain no statement of value. 2. The oath to shippers’ declara- tions for export by water may be taken before any person authorized to ad- minister oaths and not as heretofore exclusively before the collector of cus- toms at the port of exportation. This will facilitate the preparation of ex- port declarations by the original ship- per instead of by his agent at the sea- board who is less cognizant of the character and value of the merchan- dise and the country of final destina- tion. Manufacturers themselves are urged to make out the export declara- tions wherever practicable, to assist in which work the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce cheerfully sup- plies to those interested Schedule B | containing the official classification of all merchandise entering export trade. 3. The requirements on the part of common carrfers have been some- what simplified and hereafter copies of the way-bills will be accepted from the railroad companies in lieu of car manifests. In vessel manifests a no- tation that the values are as stated on the shippers’ declarations will be accepted in lieu of a detailed state- each shipment. 4 January 1, 1916, On and after | the legal requirement that goods shall not pass out of the jurisdiction of the United States until shippers’ declara- tions are presented in due form wilt be strictly enforoed. Exception will be made only when the carrier gives bond to produce within fifteen export declarations (originals or dupli- cates) for all shipments. Compliance with the new regula- tions will impose no hardship on ex- porters who have been observing the legal requirements. On the contrary their convenience 1s served, and the co-operation of shippers generally will ald the bureau of Foreign and Domes- tlc Commerce in publishing full and accurate information regarding the ex- port trade and thus furnish to the manufacturers of the country an ac- curate business guide.

London, Nov. 2.—The much criti- cized British view of war of exalted game of sport is empha sized in a British officer’s description of the bombardment of Dedeagatch by the British fleet, contained in a letter published here. His letter bristles with such phrases as “It was a grand picnic for the men, as a sort | “The ships’ com- panies enjoyed themselves ly,” “The harbor-master's burned splendidly,” “The destroyers were able to creep In and plug all manner of things." The officer began his letter by re- marking that he was playing piquet with the captain when the orders came to lift anchor and attack Dedea- gatch, and he regretfully chronicles that “the exigencies of the service made me sacrifice a hand containing fourteen aces!"” There were somo grewsome preparations for the battle in the captain's cabin, which had been turned into an operating theater- No need arose for using it, however, as no defense of the port was attempt- ed by the Bulgarians. Bombardment Description, The description of the actual bardment is in part as follows: “At about a quarter past one in the afternoon we loosed off at the big bar- racks. Our first shot brought the sol- diers tearing out of the buildings, and we eased up a bit and let them get clear. Then we banged and battered away at about 2,800 yards, making enormous holes and smashing in great areas of walls. Unless someone was killed inside the buildings, I think we Gid not hurt anyone. (German ac- counts of the battle declare that sever- al hundred soidiers were killed in these barracks.) “We were only out for destruction and damage, not slaughter, as the thrifty Bulgar hates to have his prop- erty knocked about but cares very lit- tle if his neighbor—cr even himself— is laid out. “After a bit we went for the harbor —very tricky work, as the bulk of the caiques which we had orders to shoot at were just beyond a low outer break- water, and with a trajectory from the ship, the least alteration in the elevs tion of the gun made a big difference. The difficulty was largely settled when our shells sct the masts and sails afire, and the flames spreading down- ward to the ships. No One Hurt, “The destroyers and monitors drew much 1 water than our larger ships and were able to creep in on the lead, ‘the charts of Dedegatch being in- sceurate, and they plugged all manner of things. Fortunately the population of the town had all gone away, and the troops stayed behind up in the hills, sc 1 don’t think anyone was hurt. We killed a sitting 10 which tried to hide itself behind a bush, but one which ran away escaped all right. Two of the destroyers inspired it to still greater efforts with their four- inch guns. “When we realized that there was no one hurt, it just became a bon- fAire or Trafalgar Day fireworks—it betng the 110th anniversary of the buttle of Trafalgar. We set all man- ner of things on fire. Common shell was effective but lyditte was better. ‘We burned a vast mountain of coal, many railway vans and trucks, ships, and two oil storehouses “But the best blazes were ware- houses behind the caique harbour and an immense factory stuffed with high- ly inflammable goods. It was six stories high, ten windows square, and had two annexes each of four stories, With a roaring wind to help us, and no fire brigade to spoil the fun, it was a most gorgious flare-up, and the flomes were bright cnough to cast a shadow six miles away! Cars Burn, “The railway cars burned merrily, the fire jumping along from one to the other and even eating away to windward, and the storchouses burned solidly and well, section after section catching. They had great glass sky- lights, which were shattered by the shells and ventilated the fire nicely. “The great thing about it was that nobody tried to put the fires out, and if one got smoky, a shell brightened things up a bit and improved the ven- tilation, so T don’t suppose T all ever see a finer blaze than Ded gatch. The sparks from the big fac- tory set fires to leeward, and these de- veloped well. © The coal heap fire un- fortunately could not spread to any- thing, but it blazed and glowed in the wind. “Sometimes a shell would not set fire to a building—it would make a hole in the front wall and burst in- side, chawing fl up. Or, if a lyddite shell, it would blow the roof off and | the brick wall out—satisfactory, but not picturesque. The barracks were in several detached sections and the only one of them burned. The Bul- garians had a flag flying over one of the barrack bufldings, and we brought it down in six shote, together with the building it had adorned “We stayed on until enjoying the blaze. The the hig warchouse must have shot up | thirty feet or more from the roof, and | the fire looked solid from the base- | ment upward,—streamers fifty feet long rushing upwards from each of the sixty windows on the front and from the two annexes and sides. The oil store burned during the afternoon, glow and some flames, but mostly | black, greasy-looking smoke, which | rcse 1,600 feet and clung together for | ahout two miles. Unfortunately it was in a tank in the ground, so could not spread much.
