IRISH CONFERENCE RESUMED | Ulster Unionist Strongly Favors Home | Rule Settlement For All of Ireland is feeling a regular —Plunkett Sees King George.

Lake George, N. Y., Aug.—Fire de- stroyed the summer home of George Knapp, a wealthy New Yorker, on his Shelving Rock estate here early today. The house was one of the finest places on Lake George. The loss is about 0,000. PRES. WILSO! BLAMED. China's Attitude Business Austrian Papers Claim. Stroke, Amsterdam, Aug., 8.—Austro-Hun- garians newspapers ,according to a telegram from Vienna which view China’s declaration of war as the work of the Entente, especially Presi- dent Wilson. It is the papers say, aimed at German and Austro-Hun- garian business interest in China to oust troublesome trade competitor: by furnishing the Chinese with a pre- text for not paying their debts and to rescind railway and mining con- cessions granted to Austrians and Germans, confiscate Austro-German capital invested in the country, seize FOOD CONTROL BILL VOTE TAKEN TODAY Passage Assured When Ballots | Are Counted After 4 o'Clock Washington, Aug. 8.—Final aoction before night on the food legislation was forecast when the senate con- vened today. Adoption of confer- ence reports on the food control bill and the bill providing for a food sur- vey and stimulation of production vir- tually was assured Both reports al- readv have been adopted by the house, Debate in the senate today pro- ceeded under an agreement to take a final vote on the food control bill at 4 o'clock. Only a few senators were scheduled to speak before the ! vote. i As soon as the measure is disposed | of the conference report on the food | survey bill will be taken up. But little opposition is looked for. The two bills will not go to Presi- dent Wilson for his approval before Friday when the house again con- venes, because the signatures of the presiding officers of both houses are necessary. The war industrial board continued its session today and was expected to announce a definite policy for making purchases. The program will deal mainly with priority of manufacture and shipment of goods, it is believed. Officials have indicated that profits will be kept to a minimum and if producers and manufacturers are un- willing to set reasonable prices, the | government’s power to commandeer materials will be invoked. ; The administration intends that the allies shall share with this govern- | ment in reduced costs for supplies | and if negotiations with producers fail of the desired results, the gov- ernment will go into the open market and buy for them. The realization, however, that heavy government pur- chases will cause prices to soar with a consequent hardship on private consumers, is causing some concern. Consolidation of the $2,006,970,000 war tax bill will begin in the senate tomorrow and will be kept constantly before that body until disposed of, ac- cording to present plans of the lead- ers. The administration’s food control legislation will be out of the way be- fore then. The war tax bill will be taken up under a so-called ‘gentleman’s agreement” for limited debate in an effort to pass the measures within two weeks. Senator Harding is trying to get pledges of 50 senators to join in such an agreement. He already has 30 signatures to the pledge, he announced today. Senate leaders hope to have the bill in President Wilson's hands for his signature early in September when it is planned to take a congressional re- cess of at least six weeks. IRON AND STEEL EXPORTS AT RECORD Fighteen Times As Much Sent Abroad As in 1914 New York, Aug. 8.—Pig iron, scrap iron and steel and steel billets and plates, of which the exportation ex- cept to the Allies is now prohibited, form an important factor in the tre- mendous growth of exports of iron and steel manufactures since the be- ginning of the war. The compilation by the National Cii Bank of New York shows that while the exports of iron and steel manufactures as a whole in the fiscal year 1917 were over four times as much in value as in the fiscal year 1914, the year before the war, that of the great articles restricted.by the president’s recent order—pig iron, scrap iron and steel, steel billets and steel plates—aggregates eighteen times as much in 1917 as in 1914. Total exports of these four great | articles, of which the exportation is | prohibited, according to the presi- dent’s recent order, except "in case said articles are destined for actual war purposes or will contribute di- rectly thereto,” amounted in the fis- cal year 1914 to $10,7313000, $11,727,- 000 in 1915, jumping to $62,093,000 in 1916, and again to approximately $198,000,000 in 1917, these figures for 1917 being based upon eleven months actual returns, and an estimate for the closing month of the year. Iron and steel exports as a whole have made a wonderful growth—hy far the greatest in their history—in the past two years. In the fiscal year 1915, the first yvear of the war, ex- ports of iron and steel and manu- factures thereof actually declined, having been in 1914 (all of which immediately preceded the war) $251,- 000,000, dropped to $226,000000 in 1915, advanced to - $621,000,000 in 1916, and approximately $1,120,000,- 000 in 1917, these being official fig- ures for 11 months and an estimate for the closing month of the year. In the first year of the war there was, therefore, a drop of $25,000,000 in the value of iron and steel manufactures exported; in the second year of the war there was an increase of $400,- 000,000 and in third year another in- crease of about $500,000,000, bring- ing the United States to the head of the world’s list of iron and steel ex- porters. Most of this increase in exportation | in 1916 and 1617 went to Europe. The total vaiue of iron and steel manufac- tures exported to Europe ini the first { Chi Mil & St Paul: | Mex Petroleum vear of the war (the fiscal ycar 1915) | their ships and intern their subjects. was but $92,000,000, in 1916 a jump. ‘ T Richter&Co.
