Merchants Who MrldeExcessive Profits Lower 'Prices and Get Legatima&eilncome He Believes. , . , ' Business in Indiana and OW!o1b unaccountably dull, E. H. Cettes, vicepresident of the Union National! Bank of this city, told newspapermen in New York, while there ona recent business trip. A New York! newspaper prints the followlng intenview with Mr. Cates: "It is dull all over the Wesfc, and unaccountably so, it appears tojme," said Mr. Cates. "Of coursetthey. are not so gloomy over it in the West as they are in New York City. Butlifit continues they will be more; so in our country than they are now'in'the East. You see in the West we are a business people. About New York they are all more or less gamblers in (the truest sense of the word you know, one day chickens and the next da7 fteathers. But these hard tinses' cannojt continue loa.?. Every indication points J to that being a fact. Store, shelves aro empty and mills and factories liavevbeerurunning only to supply the. orders. 'This drags down the visible supply tq a minimum. They all will sooci'piave to begin getting ready to meet sufficiently the law of supply; and dcaiaind. Railroad trains andWesBelsfewill commence moving with great ' loads of j products and commerce. Thte crops have been and will continue to he very large. That means a lot, youknow. Now, so far as New York Cityis concerned its merchants havet'been entirely out of line on their pr.tees in the past or they are now out fofVtline. Of i i:ourse meir cnarges lor xeniiemen s wear, for instance, in pastVyears were simply outrageous. So it runs in everytMnrg. That same condition is now existing all 'over the United States. It ',1s indicative simply to my judgment that these dealers either made excessive profits in the past, or thatthey are now losing vast sums in the handling of these wares. I prefer tj believe that they have been compelledthrough circumstances to legitimate profits. The business men of this 'country have been put through a lesson a legitimate lesson in true business methods since the McKinley days of inflation. It has been a tough, comedown to them, but I think the lesson will prove a profitable one. If congress will only let legitimate 'business alone give it a rest for a while, we , will very rapidly come out all right."

ADMIRAL MAYO. When President Wilson ordered the entire navel force of the United States to the coast of Mexico twelve days , T . o . Iguns on the scene of action. This half dozen of naval officers is but little known to the people whom they served. The striking figures of the Spanish-American war, Dewey, Evans, Sampson, Schley and the rest, are either dead or retired. Their places have been taken by younger men, who served through the struggle of 1898, but in humbler positions. The men are: Rear Admiral Charles Johnston Bad ger, commanding Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Henry Thomas Mayo, onmmnnrfinfr fnnrth division Atlonti : fleet Rear Admiral Frank Friday Fletcher, commanding third division Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Charles J. Badger ran his blue flag to the mast head of his flagship in place of the pennant of ! Rr Admiral T4hpt ntrhn at ! Rear Admiral Hugo Osterhous at Hampton Roads, January 4, 1913, and thereby assumed command of the Atlantic fleet. He had been assigned to the South Atlantic, to the South Pacific, to Asiatic waters, to the Mediterranean and even to the Arctic Circle, when he was one of those in the dash to rescue the Greely relief expedition. Rear Admiral Badger was born in Rockville, August 6, 1853. The future rear admiral was appointed to the Naval Academy by President Grant in 1869 and was graduated as a midshipman in 1873. A few months after leaving the Naval Academy, Midshipman Badger started on an adventurous trip. He was one of the Narragansett party, which surveyed the gulf of California. Then he was transferred to shore duty at the Washington navy yard, which was followed by a ha-lf year detail to the torpedo boat Alarm In Septem- ! ber, 1876, he started for three years' service at the Asiatic station. In September, 1881, he was detailed aboard the Yantic, which qualified him as one of the members of the celebrated Greely relief expedition organized three years later. Badger was assigned to the Boston navy yard when friends in the United States be- ! mti trt fpnr fnr thf nfetv of thp firoelv Arctic explorers. The spring of 1884 came without a word of the lieuten ant. Then the relief expedition was formed, under the late Winfield Scott Schley, at that time a commander. Lieutenant Badger was executive officer of the Alert, which steamed from New York, May 10, 1884, in com-

ADMIRAL FLETCHER. . . , r , I vuuiiuauuci vjeuigo vv . uli fin. In the Spanish war he was attached to the Cincinnati and served with j credit, if fate gave him no chance of ; great distinction. On March 3, 1899,, he was promoted to the rank of lieu-i tr'a"i V "Tf " v 7 , , he attained the rank of captain and for two years after this promotion he was superintendent at the Annapolis academy. Then he took command of the battleship Arkansas and on March 8, 1911, he became a rear admiral and received the command of the second ! division of the Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Frank Friday Fletcher is slightly better known than his superior, for he has invented several important ordnance devices which have brought him before the public. Among these inventions are the famous Fletcher breech closing mechi inism, a gun mount, which is an arj rangement of truncated cones on a roli lor path so reducing friction that a weapon weighing several tons can be ! ; trained literally with one finger and i clamped instantly to fix it upon the target, and revolutionary improvements in torpedoes. While he was in command of different vessels, he spent his spare moments on his inventions. Through the Spanish war he was assistant chief of the ordnance department at Washington, an unprecedentedly high position for a simple lieutenant. He was made a rear admiral in 1911. Many have compared Fletcher to Sampson. He is an authority on international law. He married Miss SuMATHER & UNTHANK Store Fronts, Frames, Sash, Doors, Screens, and all kinds of Mill and Bench Job Work. PHONE 2459
