IRELAND’S BIRTH RATESTILL LESS Population Has Dwindled to 4,229,124. DUBLIN, Sept. 17.—Peace and freedom have not brought back Ireland's dwindling population, or increased ljer falling birth rate. This tearful Cinderella of the nations today has a total population —Free State and Ulster combined—of 4,229,124, compared with 4,390,219 in 1911 and with 8,196,597 in 1841, before the Irish started to emigrate. Ths> igures are shown by the latest official census. All the loss since 1911 has been In the Free State. Its population in the fifteen years decreased by 166,886 to 2,972,802; while in Northern Ireland the population increased by 5,791 to 1,256,322. One Interesting feature of the report is | that in the Free State men out-numbers women by 1,000 to 973, while in Northern Ireland, women outnumber men by 1,066 to 1,000. The birth rate in all Ireland has been declining since 1871. Then the annual rate of births was 26.2 per 1,000. Now it Is 21.1 per 1,000. s The census shows that there are 1,037,234 Irish born people living in ♦he United States, and 93,301 in Canada. PREMATURE BIRTH CHARGEDTO ROAD Suit Brought Against Boston and Maine. Bu Timet Special BRATTLESBORO, Vt., Sept. 17. The Boston and Maine Railroad Company is blamed for the promature births and consequent deaths of a child and several calves and the unnatural sterility of a woman in a $40,000 damage suit filed here by Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence A. Leach, of Westmoroland, N. H. Ths bill sets out that in June of 1925 a train operated by the Boston and Maine was derailed near the Leach farm and that crude petroleum, naptha, kerosene, gasoline and zenzine leaked from some of the overturned cars and impregnated springs on the farm. Due to drinking water from these springs, Mrs. Leach alleges, a child was born dead to her and since then she has been unable to give birth to a child; while the husband alleges that in addition to the expense of his wife’s illness caused by drinking the oily water he has suffered the loss of calves born dead to five of his cows, who also drank from the springs.

STRONG TONE IN SMS DURING EARLYDEALINGS Misgiving Seen in Falling Off of Federal Reserve. Bu United Prett NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—The Wall Street Journal’s financial review today says: Market observers who had an attack of misgiving when they noticed falling off in the reserve ratio of the local Federal Reserve Bank to 74.8 per cent from 79.2 per cent a week ago and of the whole system to 71.6 per cent from 74.3 were reassured on close scrutiny of the weekly bank statement. This showed that impairment was of bookkeeping character in connec tion with mid-month money arrangements. Instead of these having been an undue exploitation of credit resources, actual borrowings decreased. Bills discounted at this center were reduced $46,21,000 and for the whole system showed a reduction of $48,732,000. * This strengthening of the credit position and continuance of the I(T> lacl banks’ rediscount rate at 4 per cent were reflected in a strong tone in the market leaders in early dealings. General Motors achieved anew record high at 154, up % from the previous close, while Chemical reached new high ground on the movement at 139*4, up 2*4, and other active industrials firmed up proportionately. LIST OFF AT NOON BULLETIN Selling steadily gathered momentum in the late morning and the market had another drastic break shortly after 12 o’clock. Steel dropped to 144*/2, off 2% from the previous close, while Warner Brothers dropped perpendicularly to 52*4, off 10 points from Thursday's final price, and General Asphalt dipped 2*4 to 81 ?i. Reports were widespread that a big uptown operator was a heavy seller of Asphalt. Montgomery Ward sold off 274 to 60% on the statement that inventory losses in the first six months probably amounted to $2,000,000. Although sales increased 15 per cent during the first half of the year, this depreciation in inventory is expected to result in a lower net income for the period as compared with the corresponding six months of 1925. GRIWf LOWER AT OPEN * I Improved Weather Causes Drop in Values. Bu United Pr---CHICAGO, Sept. 17.—Improved weather conditions over northwestern wheat country caused all grain prices to open lower than Thursday’s final quotations on the Chicago Board of Trade this morning. Wheat was % to lc off. Liverpool was %c higher, more than was due, but this was overlooked in view of news that weather over the Cannadian and American Northwest, while still cool, has shown considerable improvement. Winnipeg reported the receipts of 1,331 cars this morning, which shows that thq movement is gaining in volume. Yesterday’s export business was disappointing, being placed at only about 300,000 bushels. While many local operators are bullish on corn this cereal opened 74 to %c lower in sympathy with wheat. The country is offering old corn freely, having sold over half a million bushels in the last two or three days. Oats eased off with other grains after yesterday's strong advance The opening was 74 to %c under thi previous close. Provisions were unchanged early. RECORD OIL PRODUCTION Total Crude Petroleumn Output Is 763,743,000 Barrels. Bv Timet Special WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—The United States last year established anew record for the production of crude petroleum, with a total -of 763,743,000 barrels. This figure was 7 per cent over that of 1924, the bureau of mines reported. COW S PARADISE Bu Timet Special WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—The Panama canal zone is the cows’ paradise. Under a decision handed down here, cows in that region don’t even have to sound their claxons when they wander onto the public, highway. A man who sued the Panama Railroad Company, because his machine bumped one of the railroad's cows that did not choose to move or utter a warning, lost his case. PEPPERMINT OIL STILL WEAK Bu United Prett NEW YORK. Sept, 17.—While the general market for essential oils .here appears to be selling around a steady point, weakness continues in peppermint oil pending arrival of the new crop. Natural peppermint oil is quoted at $7.75 to $8 a pound while redistilled Is bringing $8.25 to $8.50 a pound. “A MI LE, A MULE—'” Bu Timet Special FULTON, Mo., Sept. 17.—Callaway County is renowned for i|s fine miles, but not so this year. According to reports here not a mule has been bought for fattening purposes by Grand Prairie feeders. In recent years Grand Prairie feeders Bought hundreds of the animals. Mule feeders declare they have lost millions of dollars since the World War, rarely getting a on their sales.

M HEARD YOUR FACE’ Talker’s Face May Now Be Seen and Listened to By Radio. Bu United Prett LONDON, Sept. 17.—“1 knew It was you by the sound of your face” may soon become a common salutation. Already radio listeners all over England know the sound of Captain Hutchinson’s face. It is a low droning sound, like a far-away airplane. Captain Hutchinson has been broadcasting his lace on a 200 meter wavelength for several weeks, experimenting in the new science of "television,” sending motion pictures by radio broadcast, r His face registers in ordinary receiving sets only as a continuous hum, but when the "television" apparatus is hooked in, his face is shown on a screen so that the hearer of his words can tell, while he listens, whether the captain is smiling or serious. The British Government has just' Issued the first two "television” licenses on record, one for the London office of the company, Television Ltd., the other for the company’s experimental shop at Green Gables, Harrow.

CHARMOFPEKIN HOLDS AMERICANS IN SPITEJF WAR Few Leave City of Famine and Bombings —ls 9 Pleasant Place. Bu United Prrtt PEKIN, Sept. 17.—“ How soon are you coming home, away from that terrible Chinese city of Pekin?” Few of Pekin’s several thousand American and European residents but receive this query, in one form or another, in almost every incoming mail—yet fewer still appear to heed it. There must be an explanation, and the explanation is that Pekin, in spite of war, famine, aerial bombing and all other current drawbacks continues to be one of the pleasantest cities of the world for foreign residents. Pekin, to the foreigner, offers an exceptional combination of mental charm and physical comfort. Treasure Chest The hasty visitor here may scurry about the famous Forbidden City of the Emperors, dream in the lovely summer palace, shop in the silk and jade and curio markets, and in a brief few days pack up a treasure chest of memories and material trophies. But it is only by remaining for months and years that the foreigner learns the full magic of Pekin. Probably no other city on earth has a more diverse and sophisticated population than Pekin. Here are gathered folk who have explored the four corners of the earth and most of the crevices as> well. They are for the most part people ruled by desires out of the ordinary. If their aim Is material things, they are usually playing for big stakes, and in an adventurous w T ay. Living Conditions Good Lh'ing conditions are exceptionally good. There Is a dry, agreeable climate with not-too-eold winters, wholly endurable summers, wonderful autumns, and a spring season marred only by occasional dust storms. Houses are plentiful and cheap, and Chinese servants are so Inexpensive and so eager to obtain jobs that the difficulty is to keep from having too many around the place. Foreign masculine life in Pekin centers in- the Peking Club, a model institution with the customary wellstocked bar and with a long list of other conveniences, including library, bridge rooms, pool and billiard tables, ten tennis courts, skating in winter, bowling, a barbershop and motor cars. Meals may be had, but there are no rooms for lodging. Up to 6 p. m. women of the members’ families are welcome everywhere in the club save the bar and the place resembles a country rather than a city club. While Pekin home dinners are a feature of the city's social life, the Grand Hotel de Pekin and the Grand Hotel des Wagons Lits have good orchestras for dancing afterward, and the Hotel de Pekin roof garden is a pleasure of the summer season. SEE STEAMER FOUNDER Hemerlc Sends on Report—Crew Thought to Have Been Rescued. Bu United Prett LONDON, Sept. 17.—Hundreds of American passengers, homeward bound on the White Star’s Homeric, saw the Italian steamer Elena foundered in the Atlantic, according to a radio message from the vessel. The Homeric was hurrying to the 'Elena’s assistance W’he nthe ship foundered, five miles distant. It was presumed that some of the numerous fishing craft nearby rescued the crew. KING, SERVANTS DANCE Royalty and Tenants of Estate at Annual Ball. Bu United Prett BALMORAL, Scotland, Sept. 17.

Bu Timet Special BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 17.—The sex novel, with which the market is flooojled today, is the result of a demand on the part of the feminine, public, according to Prof. Robert E. Rogers of the Massachusetts Insti tute of Technology. Professor Rogers, who is a member of the English staff of the M. I. TANARUS., believes that men prefer the more serious type of book. They often devote most of their reading time to classical and instructive works, he says, while women in most cases, will take the sex novel in preference to the standard work. The public libraries are catering, according to the professsor, to the people of ordinary intelligence. Such writers as Bocacio should be included in the modern libraries as well as medical books and classical works for students in various lines of research, if the professor’s suggestions for libraries are followed, BRliiEDjoi BEAR NO CHILDREN Birth Rate Lowest Since War Years.
