New York, Aug. 27.—Germany’s im- plied willingness to disavow the sink- ing of the Arabic and other evidence of her desire to avoid complications wit hihis country were again the para- mount factors of today': actiy i strong merket. - Developments in oth- er quarters which heightened specula- tive optimism included the figures compiled by the department of com- merce indicating that the United States now leads the entire world as an exporting nation, another very substantial rise in copper vales abroad and further upward revision of price schedules for steel, iron, lead and kin- dred products. These cheerful au- guries were partly nullified, however, by another drop in exchange on Lon- don. demand sterling falling 3-8 under vesterday’s previous low record to 463 1-4, with renewed weakness in remittances to Paris and other con- tinental financial centers. Announce- ment that representatives of the Franch government are to participate in the coming conferences here denot. ed the greater interest with which th irregular situation is coming to be re- garded. As a whole, metal shares were the outstanding issue of the market, Ten- nessce Copper absorbing the greater part of the attention by reason of its wild fluctuations. Failure of the di- rectors to declare an extra dividend, or take other action favorable to share- holders, caused a drop of ten points in the first hour to 55. Later it re- Utah 2 to 69 1-4; American Smelting 2 1-2 to 82 34; and National Lead 3 14 to 65 7-8, with ten to six point ad- vances in Federal Mining Common and Preferred at 35 and 52 re- spectively. The better known war specialties made irregular gains of 2 to 5 points and United States Steel, again on tremendous dealings, as- cended 1 1-4 to 77, its best price since the injection of the Arabic incident. Fertilizers. motors and a few utilities rose and fell within 2 to 4 point lim- its, and South Porto Rico Sugar stood out for its 2§ point rise to 100 on two sales of 100 shares eqeh. Inevitable realizing sales .caused some irregu- larity and recessions at the close. To- tal sales amounted %o 930,000 shares. Should forecasts of the week’s money movement be ful tomorrow’s bank statement will show another Jarge gain in cash, bringing excess reserve close to the $200,000,000 merk of last June. Bonds were irregular, with small future offerings. _Total sales, par valye. azgregated $2,750,000. United States-bonds were unchanged on call.

Detroit, OMich, Aug. 27.—Detroit crept within a game of Boston today by winning two easy games from New ot | York, while Cleveland was defeating the league leaders. The scores were 8 to 1 and 11 to 3. The Tigers made ten hits off Cole in the first two in- nings of the first game, but were stopped by Shawkey. Neither Pieh nor Manager Donovan was able to puzzle the Detroit batsmen to any ex- tent in the second contest, although Donovan received an ovation after he fanned Cobb with the bases full in the sixth inning.

Some officials thought a disposition by Germany to question the evidence that the Arabic, a peaceful passenger ves at- tacked without warning, might lead to interminable and unsatisfactory ne- gotiations. It was even suggested that there was a possibility that the sub- marine which fired the torpedo might later have fallen a victim to British warships and never would be able to report. German officials have made it plain that their government, as soon as it has relieved the strain upon its rela- tions with the United States by lm- iting submarine activities, will ask the American government to demand that Great Britain and her allles cease in- terfering with legitimate neutral com- merce and thus permit the importa. tion of foodstuffs for the German civ! population. The American note to England on this subject has been jn preparation for some time and prob ably will be dispatched as-soon as thé hegotiations with Germany are on the way toward satisfactory adjustment. The communication probably was com- pleted when the allies’ action in de- claring cotton contraband made re- drafting necessary. In this connection it has been learn- ed that Germany is preparing to pro- test against acquiescence by the United States in the treatment of cot- ton as contraband, PREPAREDNESS AGAINST INVASION (Continued from Page One) ready at all times to furnish 250,000 men to this reserve body. Reliance on Reserve Force. Cordial ‘agreement with _Governor Fielder's statements was expressed by Governor E. F. Dunne of Iilinois, who said he felt the natlon’s main reifance for a reserve force might will be found in a requirement that every col- lege and university receiving funds, federal or state, should give four years of military training to its stud- ents. | “If war were declared on the United States by any of the principal European nations tomorrow it must be admirted our situation would be a Drecarious one”, he sald. Referring to the need of a_great supply of muni- tions, as devefoped by the European war, Governor Dunne said that “any great Britain or German fleet could take possession or destroy all mean of manufacturing munitions in the United States, such plants being_al- most entirely within 150 miles of New York City. Must Depend on Patriotism. Governor W. S. Hammond of Min- nesota, emphasizing what he said was the fact that this country had spent hundreds of millions more dollars for its army and navy than any other nation in the world, recommended the creation of some board which would Le able thoroughly to inform congress of the needs for national defence. He we would find these battleships of ours glving a_very good account of them- selves.” It was his opinion that the vation must depend largely upon the patriotism of its peopie for defense, that “the men would not stand for compulsory military, service and the naticn cannot afford to hire its sol- diers.” Gov. Park Trammell of Florida Ap- . plauded. Belief was expressed by Governor P. L.

Huggins has made real ball players out of Dolan, Long, Butler, Betzel and Snyder, for whom he paid little or nothing. Barney Dreyfuss says that the Pi- rates have received more m in Boston and Philadeiphia this year than for many seasons. If the Yankees lose a few more games they’ll find themselves wallow- ing in the mire with the Clevelands, Browns and Athletics. John McGraw says that when the European war ends he will make ar- rangements with Charles A. Comiskey to take two ball teams to South Amer- ica. Major league players say that they are satisfied with their present em- ployers for the reasom that 10 cent ball in the Federal league necessarily means’ 10 cent salaries. “We are still in the race,” declared Col. Ebbets of the Superbas. ~Rob- i bie’s men are due for a brace. They couldn’t beat the Reds because the latter are playing the best ball in the league just at present.” ‘One thing is sure ‘The Feds can- not abandon 10 cent baseball for ma- Jor league prices, said a National league. “They believed that the big circus would have to adopt their cut rate policy and I understand that they are greatly disappointed because we have made no chance.” Fred Clarke went back into base- ball history Tuesday with a story of a visit of the Pirates to the Polo grounds 15 years ago. He said that they played three double headers in three days and that the Pittsburzh club was paid for not more than 90 admissions each day. “Baseball wa: in worse shape then than it is now, added the Pirate chief.
