SpectaculaiVadvances h%ve marked the shares of companies listed in London Interested In oil developments In Trinidad, and there sterns now a rapid movement to organize new companies to drill for petroleum on this island, according to reports received by the department of commerce from the American consul there. The leading companies have determined on a policy of further expansion, and in their keen competition for tho purchase of lands thought to be oil-bear-ing the price for such lands has been ns high ns SSOO per acre when indications for finding oil seemed especially favorable. This applies only to private lands, as all ihowu or government lands in the mineral oil districts have been covered long sinee by concessions to British companies to explore, prospect and mine for petroleum. The island of Trinidad has an area of 1,862 square miles, being almost the size of the state of Delaware. The petroleum Indications are confined to the Southern part of the Island, and particularly along several more or less clearly defined anticlines which follow an approximately east to west course. The Trinidad government receives royalties of 10 per cent on the value of oil obtained from the crown lands, as well as an -excise duty of 8 cents per gallon on the oil produced in the colony or removed from a public warehouse. The local oil companies receive a fair measure of protection from outside competition, since. In addition to the excise tax, a duty of 12 cents per gallon Is imposed on kerosene and other refined petroleum burning oils, and 8 cents per gallon on motor spirits, including benzine, gasoline. naphtha and petrol spirits generally. In 1918 the imports of kerosene oil from the United States amounted to $128,774, and of other kinds of mineral oils, $100,664.

YANKEE DEBTS BURDEN ALLIES British Expert Says Financial Crisis Faces Europeans. LONDON, Feb. 9.—“ The financial structure of the whole world, we are assured, is to be forthwith considered at Paris,” says Sir Leo Chrozzo Money, financial expert and former undersecretary in the British cabinet. “What is there for consideration? When America came into the war Europe had already reduced itself to financial impotence. American intervention' came not a moment too soon; it came almost too late. The United Kigdom had mortgaged its resources and staked its most precious asset, its mercantile marine, to keep its allies in the war. After the American Intervention we borrowed from America to lend to our allies, so that our debt to America Is really the indirect debt of our allies to America. “The allies now find themselves In a desperate economic plight, with their transport systems out of gear, their industries disorganized, and their territories scarred by the invader. Germany has been placed in economic bondage, and what were her main assets are broken and dispersed. The distributed German assets are placed in the hands of new and old states who. in the nature of the case, can not yet niake good use of them. FEARS EVEN GENERAL REVOLT. “Such Is the Europe which, day by day, Is Increasing its indebtedness to America. What Paris must consider is this: So grave are the economic difficulties that if the various governments of Europe, good, bad and indifferent, old and new, stable and unstable, find themselves made the instruments of unbearable taxation and the responsible administrators of cruel, economic hardships, it will be difficult to save Europe as a whole from revolution and catastrophic disaster. “Although our own position is so favorable as compared with that of any European country, we are suffering from many shortages which will not, and can not be repaired until Europe Is at work again, and which will be gravely accentuated if the European economy suffers further deterioration. “The production of the world is the world’s wage. The European contribution to the world’s wage has been enormously reduced. Europe now feeds at the American table. This process, representing the piling of debt upon debt, cripples those who are compelled to resort to ‘Jt. “One nation holds 'the key to the institution, and has the power to redress the economic disabilities of Europe. America came late Into the war, and fortunately saw its termination before she had been called upon to make any considerable sacrifice. This Is not uttered by way of reproach. The spending of our substance to sustain our allies, like the proceeds of the sale of our dollar securities, went to America to enrich her before she came Into the war, and the economic upshot of the whole matter Is that today America Is In the position of a rich nation, which has invested $10,000,000,000 in Europe—the impoverished and bleeding Europe which, so far from being able to pay interest on the $10,000,000,000, is, ns the above figures show, not even able to pay

This is the first necessary step in the rehabilitation of turope. That step taken, It would then be reasonable to talk of a big peace loan to finance Europe in her present difficulties and to

enable her to resume her old part as the world’s greatest producer of wealth. Nor Is this merely a European interest. "It ls( being borne in upon thoughtful Mmericans that the trade of the United States can not indefinitely consist of

ASKS TO FACE LODGE’S GHOST Gotham Produce Man Says He Will Give $5,000 for Proof. NEW YORK. Feb. 9.—Joe Rlnn, who when not devoting bis attention to his produce brokerage business la the carrot and turnip belt in Washington street, camping on the trail of ghosts, spirits.* spooks, mediums, psychical researcher* in general and Sir Oliver Lodge and Prof. James H. Hyslop in particular, is out with a fresh challenge to the British scientist. But iha latter, by coldness and neglect, threatens to spoil Mr. Rii*’s iconoclastic pastime. When Mr. Rlnn a few days ago offered to forfeit $5,000 real money if Sir Oliver or any one else would produce a medium who, under analysis, could show the slightest manifestation of communication with the spirit world, Sir Oliver, from the smoky purlieus of Pittsburg, replied: “Rubbish—it is all rubbish." OFFERS SS,OOO FOR PROOF OF GHOST. But Mr. Rinn is hopeful and persevering. Challenging Sir Oliver anew, he says: “In view of the fact that you are regarded by a vast number of people aBS an authority on psychical phenomena.because of your reputation in natural sciences, I hereby make you this offer, to prove to the world that you have but the most elementary knowledge of psychical - ) phenomena, that you do not and can not* know bow to protect from fraud; and that you can not tell a real medium from a fraud. “I hereby agree that I sha’l have the newspapers of New York appoint a committee; that I shall deposit with that committee, if you accept my offer, a certified check for $5,000, and that I will go with you before a large audience in: the largest public hall to be had in New York and produce both mental and mediuinistic phenomena, and that if you can explain how I produce the phenoma the committee shall hand you the $5,000. “If money offers no Inducement to you to prove your position as an author-, ity on psychical research, I challenge* you to accept my test in the interest of truth and science.” . CHALLENGER SAYS HE’S NOT SCOFFER. “I am now’ one of the oldest living psychical researchers,” hev continues, “a former member for many years of boththe British and American Societies for Psychical Research. Since 1905 I have been president of the Metropolitan Psychical Research society in New York. “With my reputation, you can hardly afford* to ignore my criticism at the present time, when you are about our country lecturing. “I challenge you to prove that you are an expert in psychical phenomena, and I offer to show, in a public test, that your knowledge of the subject is as simple and unknowing as that of a young theological* student or a schoolboy in a poker game with card sharps.”
