New York, Dec, 2.—Members of the American Warehouse Men's Associa- tion here to attend their annual con- vention, report steadily increasing prosperity all over country. L. Criss of Pittsburg, secretary of the association declares that the year has been a prosperous one for warehouse men and that this reflects conditions in many lines of business activity. “In agricultural lines, said Mr. Criss, “the returns have been most bountiful and in some instances estab- lished records, and thus afforded a firm base for all business operations. Conditions as to cotton and rice are materially improved over those of 1914. “In manufacturing, while some de- pression existed early in the Vyear, here has been for some months prob- ably as great activity as ever was wit- nessed. While this partly due to war materials and supplies, the volume of manufacturers ror domestic uses and for countries other than those at war is reported very large.” Arthur P. Jones, chairman of the committee on railroads and steam- ships, reports a large increase in railroad tonnage. The convention will close with a dinner: ENTERTAIN JAPANESE BARON IN NEW YORK tonight Receptions, TLmunches and Dinners Held in Honor of Nippon Financier.

Some of the most distinguished men in the city paid a tribute to the Japanese financier last night at a dinner in his honor at the Lotos club. Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corporation, said that America desires the friend ship of Japan if for no other reason than its pecuniary advantage. “We have no finer people to do business ‘vith than the Japanese,” said Mr. Gary- “Every act of theirs has been honorable and high-minded so far as their deals with us are con- cerned.

New York, Dec. 2.—In explanation of the New York Central Railroad’s ection in filing with the up-state public service commission a schedule of tariffs based on a rate of 2 1-2 cents a mile, L. F. Visburgh, general passenger agent of the road, said to- day that the cost of operation forced the change. “We are trying to make our pas- senger business pay its share of in- ceme,” said Mr. Visburgh, “In view of the increased cost of wages and of steel cars, which is double that of wooden cars fifteen years ago, the many safety devices demanded, the cost of power and other items of in- creased expense, we believe this in- crease is justified. Other roads have recognized this and have raised their rates. The New Haven and other New England lines did it last year.” The passenger fare from New York tc Buffalo is not affected and, it was ‘institu- | said, most of the western rates will be unchanged. BRITISH SEA LOSSES HEAVY IN NOVEMBER London Board of Trade Gets Reports of Sinking of Fifty-Three Steamers and Thirty-Fife Sailing Ships. London, Dec. 2, 10:40 a. m.—Re- rorts received by the board of trade during November tell of the sinking of fifty-three British steamers with & total net tonnage of 61,072 with the loss of 646 lives. In the same period the loss was reported of thirty- flve British sailing vessels of 4,977 net tonnage with six lives. So far as the figures show twenty of the steamers were sunk by German war- ships and ten by mines, but 495 of the lives lost were on steamers sunk by German warships. These figures do not record the to- tal casualties for November but mere- 1y the reports received, some of which relate to previous months. HACK DRIVERS STRIKE. Insist That They Should Receive Fifty Cents Per Person. Several of Michael Sullivan's driv- ers have gone on a strike. So, any- way, goes the report issi#1 forth from those in close touch with the knight of the depot transyortatinn. It is said that the drivers insist on charging fifty cents per person for transportathn and Sullivan refuses to permit them to charge that amount. Sullivan owns the franchise at the depot and has the drivers work for him on a percentage basis. ANOTHER SHIPPING BILL. Draft Now in the Hands of the House Merchant Marine Committee. ‘Washington, Dec. 2.—Draft of an administration shipping bill to take the place of the measure which failed of passage at the last session of con- gress was in the hands of the house merchant marine committee today, It was prepared after conferences be- tween Secretaries McAdoo and Red- field and would have congress appro- priate $50,000,000 for merchant ships that could pe used as naval auxiliar- es. The bill, too, would create a feder- al board with jurisdiction over deep water traffic, similar to that exercised by the interstate commerce commis- sion over the railroads. The bill will not be ‘introduced in congress until President Wilson has given his ap- proval ‘after its revision by adminis- tration leaders in and out of congress- MAGAZINE WRITER DEAD. Norwalk, Dec. 2.—Mrs. Elizabeth Flint Wade, well known as a maga- zine writer, died at her home here during last night, at an advanced age.

Kerling came from the Texas league, and as he was not ed as a ‘“jumper” it was said here he was eligible to return. Ker- ling took part in only two champion- ship games last season, but played in all exhibition games, REFUSE TO SANCTION FORD’S PEACE TRIP U. of P. and Carnegie Institute De- cline Invitation to Designate Students for Journey. Pattisburgh, Dec. 2.—Faculties of the University of Pittsburgh and the Carnegie Institute of Technology ves- terday refused to officially sanction the proposed trip of Henry Ford, The action was taken after a request had been received from him by both to designate a student to represent each institution. The university nounced, however, that Mr. Ford could extend an invitation either to ¥. A. Moran of Schenectady, N. Y., or J. Steel Gow, of Pittsburgh, both students, to accompany him. The faculty decided to permit the officers of the student classes to act on the invitation. SOUTHERN PACIFIC CASE IS RESUMED authorities an- Government Seeks to Separate Central Pacific Railway from Defend- ant Line- 5 St. Louis, Dec. 2.—Arguments in the case in which the government seeks to separate the Central Pacific Railway from the Southern Pacific were resumed here today before three federal circuit judges sitting as the district court for Utah. Edward F. McClennen of Boston, counsel for the government, who be- gan the argument yesterday continued it today. Garret W. McEnerney of San Francisco .expects to present the argument for the railways this af- ternoon. The complete brief of the govern- ment will be submitted to the court at the conclusion of the argument, and the attorneys for the Southern Pacific have been instructed to mail their brief from New York not later than December 11. PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. Germans Cannot Understand Why Allies Are Still Fighting. Berlin, Dec. 2, by Wireless to Say- ville—Commenting on the proposed socialist interpellation in the Reich- stag concerning the condition upon which Germany would make peace, the Overseas News Agency says: “This interpellation is due to the fact that in Germany nobody understands why our enemies, after diplomatic defeats in the Balkans coupled with military failures, have not yet begun peace negotiations. The imperial chancellor, Bethmann-Hollweg. probably cuss these possibilities in the Reich- stag within the next few days. En- suing debates will likely show that the rulers of countries at war with Ger- many, still blinded, believe in Ger- many’s starvation, her economic pros- tration, and similar illusions. Ther fore, any peace conditions put forward by Germany, though dictated by her successes along all fronts, would be interpreted by the nations opposed to her as signs of weakness and weari- ness of war.” Dr. Von will dis- KITCHEN A SALOON, Norwich Man Fined $175 and Costs for Violating Excise Laws, Norwich, Dec. 2.—Because he sold liquors without legal authority, us- ing the kitchen at his home in Vol- untown as a barroom, Bartin Mon- sees it was learned today has been found guilty of violation of the excise laws and fined $175 and costs, after a hearing before a justice of the peace of Jewett City. According to the testimony given by state police at tne nearing a day or two ago, they visited the Monsees home the day before Thanksgiving, finding there between 200 and 400 bottles of beer, several gallons of hard liquors and a number of men drinking there. COST OF TRANSPORTATION. Charleston, W. Va.,, Dec. 2.—In support of its petition to the public service commission that it be per- mitted to charge a straight three cent passenger fare in West Virginia, the Western Maryland railroad con- tinued today to present evidence bear- ing on the cost of transportation. Books and documents accepted by the commissioners as evidence reveal- ed that for every dollar taken in for passenger fares the company Wwas compelled to spend $1.05 in carrying out its obligation to the passengers. OPPOSE BRITISH ACTION. Buenos Aires, Dec. 2.—The cham- ber has approved a demand for the interpellation of the government on the subject of the seizure by the Brit- jish ot the coasting passenger steamer President Mitre, on the ground that it is owned by German capital. " BRIGHTER CHILDREN Childrenare probably brighterto-day than a generation ago—but are they stronger? That's a grave question. So many pinched faces, dulled eyes and languid feelings make us wonder if they will ever grow into robust, healthy men and women. ’ If your children catch colds easily, are tired when rising, lack healthy color, or find studies difficult, give them Scott’s Emulsion for one month to enrich their blood and restore the body-forces to healthy action. Scott’s Emulsion is used in private schools. It is not a “patent medicine”, simply a highly concentrated oil-food, without alcohol or harmful drugs. It cannot harm; it improves blood; it bene- fits lungs and strengthens the system. Vour druggist has it—refuse substitutes. Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield, N. J. ALCORN OPPOSED TO RELEASE OF WALKER (Continued From First Page.) temper and determination. Nearly six months was spent in litigation of this character before his final sur- render to the United States and Con- necticut authorities: He had the as- sistance of the ablest lawyers avail- able, one of them, Ramariez, being employed, so the lawyer himself says, at the solicitation of Walker's broth- er-in-law in New Britain. As a part of his efforts defeat extradition Walker wrote the governor of Mex- ico that he and some Los Angeles cap- italists were greatly interested in de- veloping the mineral and industrial resources of the country and that, if extradition was refused, he would make complete restitution within a short time. The impression prevails among a few people that Walker's émbezzle- ment from the Savings Bank of New Britain was a single transaction. This is not true. Gondorf, himself,—who does not talk freely, by any means,— says that Walker brought three or four lots of the bank's securities to his place to have them negotiated on as many different trips which Walker made to New York prior to his flight. Knew What He Was Doing. The impression also obtains in some quarters, entirely I think among those who are actively interested in his re- lease, that Walker was decoyed to New York and there drugged, and for that reason he does not know what took place on the day of his disap- pearance, nor until he found himself at Goldfield, Neb- This impression is flatly contradicted by two letters which I have in my possession, writ- ten by Walker, himself, after he reached New York on his way to Mex- ic one a four-page letter to Mr. Philip Corbin of New Britain, and the other a three-page letter to Rev. F. H. Devine of Hartford. Both l?tters are well written and are unmistak- ably the product of a clear mind. In the letter to Mr. Corbin, Walker ven- tures the suggestion that his embe.- zlement be kept secret because ‘it would certainly result in a disastrous run that would be a great injury to the bank,” and that “a whisper of such a loss would be disastrous, and if the employes and directors, who must know, could be induced to maintain silence, I am sure it would be vastly better for the bank,” and again. *“I am writing this letter and leaving it where it will be mailed in case any- thing happens to me.” The letter was mailed in New York, presumably by Walker himself. and his clohing was shipped to New Britain to color to the claim made at that time that he had probably committed sui- cide, all a part of the general scheme to cover his flight to Mexico. In the letter to Mr. Devine, after confessing his crime, he said, “My interests are in the hands of a friend who will do all that can be done, and 1 hope that ultimately all losses will be retrieved.” ‘Walker Has Not Aided State. So far as my information goes Walker has exhibited little, if any, contrition; on the contrary he has maintained from the outret the same sullen indifference which he showed at the time of his arrest. He has not assisted the state in its efforts to ap- prehend and punish his confederates, but by his silence he has effectively protected them. The reason he gives for silence is that he has nothing to tell. His letters. would indicate that there is much he can tell. In the first place he can tell the names of the men with whom he dealt during the years covered by his stealings; he can tell the name of the “friend” in whose hands his interests were placed at the time of his contemplated flight; he can tell who the Los Angeles capital- ists are with whom he cluimed to be associated in developing the mineral and industrial resources of Mexico; he can tell what those interests are; what they may reasonably be worth today, and to what extent they represent the embezzled funds. When asked in Mexico to disclose the names of his associates in crime, he named only “Whitney” and *“McDonald” (Con- dof’s alias), saying that “the others he understood. were out of the coun- From whom and how did he understand this? Who are the others and to what country did they flee? Walker, a trusted member of the community in which he lived, posing as a deeply religious man, was steal- ing from corporations and individuals for years, and succeeded in convert- ing to his own use over $600,000 of the money of those who trusted him. His multiplicity of crimes, his flight, his conduct in resisting extradition re- sulting in an expense to the state of many thousands of dollars, his un- broken silence when he ought to speak, and his entire lack of contri- tion, present, in combination, a con- clusive reason why he should not be paroled. I.am fully aware that Walker was formerly prominent in the business and social world, that he still has in- fluential friends, and that a de- termined effort is being made to se- cure his release, but. as the judge who sentenced him says, ‘“He should be treated like every other criminal, no better and no worse.” Walker has served only six and one-lalf years of a maximum sentence of twenty years. No one can fairly claim ttat this sen- tence is excessive, and if not, then the state of Connecticut has a right to ex- pect that the board of parole will not interrupt it for several years to come. Still Faces ¥ 5 State’s Attorncy Alcorn has made a vigorous fight to prevent Walker's parole as he believed there were a number of matters connected with the embezzlement that the prisoner could have ~'sarod u, had he so de- sired.
