Coast Guard Service Starts to Rid Coast of Menace. Washington, July 15.—The coast guard service took up today active direction of efforts to rid the North Atlantic coast of sharks which have cleared many beaches of bathers. The life saving service will render aid. The plan of the coast guard is to ascertain first whether the sharks are few in number or travel in large schools.

CONFIDENGE NOTE INBUSINESS WORLD) Based on Development of Coun- fry’s Resources, Says Clews (Spectal to the Herald.) New York, July 15.—The most significant event of the week was the rise of the Bank of England rate from 5 to 6 per cent. This is the first ad- vance since August, 1914, evidently intended as a protective measure against. the possibility of higher interest rates and adverse sterling exchange in New York. Next In importance came the announce- ment of a new $100,000,000 French loan on a 5 1-2 per cent. basis. Reserves of the New York banks declined from over $200,000,000 since last autumn to abaut $35,000,000 last week the banks gained considerably banking system was Inaugurated. This wee kthe banks gained considerably through receipts from the Interest, tho federal reserve operations and sub- treasury payments. In view of the many prospective demands upon American banking resources the money market is an interesting sit- uation. The usual crop demands will soon assert themselces, but will be easily cared for and are of minor im- portance compared with other im- minent demands. War has made New York the leading open money market of the world. It is the only market where all nationalities can freely come. Hence the belligerents, and especially the Allies, have done a considerable proportion of their financing here. The placing of huge munition orders in this country has also contributed enormously to the financial prestige of New York. At this center the flscal arrange- ments of the Allies were usually made and carried out; from this port the bulk of U. S. exports were shipped, and in this market the credits loans and bond issues connected with the war were necessarily made. Hither came the immense quantities of gold and securities sent to help payments for munitions, and here further big transactions of the same sort will be consummated at least as long as the war continues. The expected French loan has already been announced. An- other British loan, possibly in the form of short term notes, is almost inevitable; while Russia, China, Can- ada and Argentina are all knocking at our bank doors for financial aid which will very likely be rendered. Big demands are evidently pressing upon our banking regpurces, which are fortunately ample. §Yet the diffi- culties are sufficient to call for ski handling on part of our financiers; for our banking institutions have fre- and was quently all the loans outstanding up- | | declined on foreign owned American collateral that they desire. In the last few weeks about $100,000,000 in American securities and $150,000,000 gold have been imported in payment for muni- tions and to assist in keeping down interest rates, which if materially higher would operate adversely upon sterling exchange and render British operations still more costly. At this juncture come in the operations of the United States Treasury which is jst now enjoying unusually large revenues, its receipts in June being over $160,000,000 or $40,000,000 in excess of last year. During the same month receipts exceeded disburse- ments by $103,000,000—a very satis factory condition from some points of view. But passage in the house of the new bill intended to increase public revenue about $200,000.000 to meet preparedness plans makes it appear that excessive taxation and excessive revenue are paving the way for a new era of national extravagance. Still another new question affecting the money market has been intro- duced by action of the treasury in de- positing its funds with the federa] re- serve banks, instead of with national banks which were obliged to furnish collateral for such deposits. The gov- ernment has recently transferred large sums from the national banks to the federal reserve banks and this has had considerable to do with the shrinkage in reserves at this center, Foreign Trade. Our foreign trade has surp-&-ed the most optimistic expectations, the total for the fiscal year ending in June heing $6,000,000,000. This is much the largest total on record, and must be chiefly attributed to the war. Ex- ports amounted to $4,345,000,000 and imports $2,165,000,000. The principal articles of exports were steel products, 618 millions, nearly treble last vear; explosives, 473 millions, a tenfold gain; cotton, 370 millions; breadstuffs, 314 millions, meats 270 millions; coffee, 170 millions; mineral oils, 1 millions; brass, 126 millions; autos, 123 millions; chemicals, 123 millions, and horses, 73 million In imports the principal amounts were fibers, 131 millions; copper, 52 millions: wood manufactures, 51 millions: tin, 48 millions, and cotton manufactures, 42 millions. These are marvellous re- sults, and decided reactions may fol- low the arrival of peace. Of course | the impaired buying power of Europe will act adversely upon articles of ex- port; but it must be remembered that the bulk of our exports is made up of necessities such as food products, cot- ton, petroleum, etc. The demand for many of these products, including our steel manufactures, will actually in- crease when reconstruction begins in Yurope: and the first and probably only things which the belligerents will refuse to buy anywhere will be luxuries, which constitute a very small portion of our exports. Before Furope buys from us with any free- dom she must be prepared to send us merchandise instead of securities, or gold which we do not need, and which we are simply taking because of the inducements they offer. Very little real change can be.de- tected in the financial situation, for Letter or for worse. The war drift is peacewards, the increased Intensity of ful | | issues 114116 ASYLUM 'ST. HARTFORD.

Ladies who demand quality and correctness above everything. And they all come back—our friendship has been doubly strengthened because they can not only get complete clothes satisfaction, but also more for their clothes- money than they can get anywhere else. You'll get the habit, too, if you will purchase some of the namerous bar- gains now being offered in this depart- ment. Every sale we make is meant to give you one hundred per cent. satisfaction, and no sale is complete or final until you're sure it ——— = hostilities hastening the end. Mexi- can affairs have settled down into a state of quietude, which may be per- manent if the conciliatory spirit on Poth sides proves sincere and stable. The domestic political campaign has not yet started, and the real drive wil] not begin until both candidates have formally announced their acceptances and policies. General business is fairly active but summer quiet is spreading. Some improvement is re- ported in the crop situation as a re- sult of the warm spell. Corn crop was estimated by the government report at 866,000,000 bushels before the Tecent rise in temperature, or only 180,000,- 600 below last year; and the wheat crop at 759,000,000 or 252,000,000 bushels less than last year, But (00,000 bushels of wheat are left in farmers’ hands from last year, and it must not be overlooked that last! year's crop of wheaat was phenomenal | and corn exceeded the record. Bank | clearings and railroad earnings prove | by their large gains the sustained in- crease of business activity. Such figures are of course affected by high prices; though the upward tendenc in many commodities has been | ctopped, and not a few articles have | with indications of further | akness coming. There a confident spirit among business men in general, based upon a | sound development of the country's 1esources, and no longer upon the | war which seems to have spent its extreme influence upon American husiness affairs. In future the war will be a factor chiefly in the ap- proach of peace, which in some cases | will naturally require radical adjust- ment of output and prices to the new | Pasis. This process has already begun; transactions on the stock exchange were moderate in proportions. Liquidation in the industrials con- | tinued, especially in munition, coppen | d auto shares whch have had an exaggerated rise and subsequent fall Railroad shares held their own well, | | | i wi is justifying the advice to discriminate in their favor. For the time being the | stock market must be considered in- fluenced by the monetary outlook, and the prospect of large foreign loan which absorb considerable of the current Investment capacity. On the other hand it should be horne in mind that the issue of these collateral loans will withdraw large amounts of | high grade investments that other-|I g would be pressing on the market. This prevents liquidation that ordi- perily would accompany new war loan: The market for foreign se- curities on this side is making a re- markably satisfactory growth, and]| promises to be a permanent depar- ture; besides being positive proof of our expanding interest in foreign affairs. ¥ HENRY CLEW 1 T MOVIE REGULATION.
