the situation entirely, but it is an 1

not fall beneath the line of profit i
to the producer.
The war continues to rage with |
all the fury that men and the

devise and effect. The main the- j

t HIGH INTEREST RATES
Secretary McAdoo After New York,
'Chicago, Boston and St. -
Louis Banks.
Secretary McAdoo Friday sent
telegrams to the chgirmen.of the
clearing house associations in New
York, Chicago, Boston, and Stx
Louis complaining of high interest'
rates in those cities, ana appealing
for aid in remedying that condi
tion. The telegrams said :
" I have received complaints
about the high rates of interest
which are being charged by the
national bank Sof New York, Bos
ton, Chicago and other reserve
cities. It is alleged that the New
York Banks are requiring their cor
respondent banks throughout the
country to pay 7 per cent, for loans
and to maintain ;i balance with
the New York banks, which makes
the money cost the correspondent
bank -the equivalent of 8 per cent,
more. Specific cases have been
brought to •my attention where
banks in cities of the South have
been required to pay these high
interest rates.. If New York charg
es the'equivalent of 8 per cent,
interest to the correspondent banks
of the South these Southern
banks must in turn charge a still
higher rate to the small banks,
which nre, in turn, their corres
pondents, thus in the end making
the money cost the ultimate bor
rower very high if not exhorbitant
rates. From all the evidences be
fore me I cannot feel that the
the charge of 7 or 8 per cent, in
terest by the New York banks is
justified in the circumstances.
Within the past six weeks I haVe
approved the issuance to the na
tional banks of New York city of
more than $140,000,000 of new or ad
ditional national bank currency.
This was done for the purpose of
easing rates and helping the sit
uation generally."
Friday night the Secretary made
public a list of nearly 250 national
banks outside reserve and central
reserve cities, which are carry
ing reserves in excess of the legal
requirements. The list shows that
reserves in these banks runs from
25 per cent, to 74 per cent., the le
gal minimum being 15 per cent.
"If," said Mr. McAdoo, in a state
ment given out with the list, "the
large amount of loanable funds
that are kept from active employ
ment as indicated by these figures,
was invested in Industrial or agri
cultural paper or loaned on prop
er security, the present situation
would be greatly relieved.
Only one of the banks named is
in North Carolina—the Concord Na
tional, which has a reserve of 28
per cent.
The_ Concord Jjank denies thai it
is hoarding money or restricting
credit. The president, Mr. D. fl.
C'oltrane, is thus reported by the
Tribune:
"I have Just been congratulating
myself that our bank has been and
is in position to take care of the
needs of our customers and; to meet
the needs of the farmers and busi
ness men at this time of the year.
At this time, as is well known, the
cotton crop is being moved and
there aie Increased demands by the
farmers for loans on cotton, and in
order to be well able to care for
the need sof our customers and our
people ot this section, we naturally
had .to have sufficient funds on
hand to do so. We have declined
to make loans to peopl ein other
towns and in other sections of the
State. We did this in order to
care for the people of our town
and county. We have letters on
file now from firms and individuals
in other towns asking for loans and
offering to pay 8 per cent.
turned those loans down in omer
to be in a position to make neces
sary loans and to make them at
6 per cent."

'Declares India Can Stud 7,000,000
Soldiers. *
"Germany made a mistake about
India as it did .about Ireland, and
anybody who counts on India to be
false to England will come a crop
per."
In these words his highness, the
aga khan, recognized temporal
. leader of 60,000,000 of East Indian
Mhammedans, sums up for the New
York World correspondent' in Lon
don the Indian empire's status in
the world's war. *» ,
The aga khan has directed the
K hoja Moslems, who alone number
several millions, and of whom he is
the spiritual as well as the tem
poral head, to place their services
and resources at the disposal of
the government, and has volunteer
ed to serve himself as a private

Indian expeditionary force.
"Many of my fellow countrymen
have been in Africa and have seen
the German administration in the

what Germanization of India would
mean, and they know, too, that if
England was drHxn out of India,
Germany, should be successful,

"Personally, my antipathy is not

against the Prussian school of
Rernhardis, Nietzsches and the
Kaiser's general staff—a school de

"Will Indian troops be able to 1

Bifc Battles Cause Rain—Many Cases
in History.
Pearson's Weekly, London.
It is one of the most extraordi
nary things of warfare that a big
battle invariably brings rain.
We can hardly have a better ex
ample than that recorded in 1858,
when England was threatened by
the great Spanish Armada. After
its encounter with our own fleet
it was, as we all know, struck by a
heavy storm which completed the
work |jf our own gallant sea
men.
The soldiers who tought so
bravely under the leadership of
Marlborough at Blenheim in 1704
had* to' suite* the misery of succes-s
give dounpours after their brilliant
victory.
Marlborough was anxious to fol
low up his victory without delay,
but his men were BO worn by the
fatigue of the battle and dis
comforts caused by the heavy rains
and fhe contingencies of warfare
that he was unable to push on for
several days.
'June 16,1815, the British defeat
ed the French at Quatre Bias, and
Napoleon worsted the Wiley Blu
cher, at Ligny, both within meas
urable distance of Waterloo. The
heavy rains which followed these
engagements made the clayey soil
almost impossible for cavalry ma
neuvers \«t Waterloo—fought on
June 18—and so crippled the tac
tics of Napoleon and greatlv assist
ed those of the Duke of Welling
ton.
During the early weeks of th»»
siege of Sebastonol, in 1854, the
roar of cannon and the explosion of
bombs, was followed, day by- day
by heavy downpours of rain until
our men stood in the trenches knee
deep In mud.
In yet another instance the
heavy cannonading of a siege
brought in its train a disturbance
of the elements. This was just pri
or to the fall of Plevna, in 1877,
when the_ moisture of the clouds
was turned to snow as it fell .and,
by increasing the sufferings of the
besieged, helped to make Osmin
come to the determination to try a
last chance for freedom.
Barbaric Warfare.
In the year 1857 there occurred
in India an incident of brutality
which aroused'the indignation of
the civilised world. History re
cords that after the mutiny of the
Sepoys, who were the native troops
in that English possession, the sur
viving mutineers were bound to
the cannon's mouth and blown to
pieces.
The above episode has its paral
lel in this, the twentieth century,
whose people are noted for refine
ment and culture. Surely the bomb
dropping from biplanes is but an
other frustration of savage bru
tality.
The worst feature of this das
tardly action is the fact that these
missiles are often directed against
and accomplish the wholesale de
struction of non-combatants. When
two hostile armies battle for the
supremacy they meet face to face,
and engage in honorable combat.
Is it according to the usages of
war, and is it humane for these bi
planes to halt over a sleeping city
and drop these bombs and ruth
lessly slaughter men, women and
innocent children, who for the most
part are non-combattanta.

The War in Brief
SUMMARY OF THE
EUROPEAN WAR
FOR ONE WEEK READ AT A GLANCE
September 20.—The official state
ment issued says that In violent
fighting north of Solssons, the Ger
mans gained ground, which after
wards was recouped by the allies.
The British admiralty reports that
the Oerman protected cruiser Koen
lgsberg caught the British light crtils
er Pagtsus overhauling her machin
ery In Zanzibar harbor this morning
and attacked and completely disabled
her. The British lost heavily.
The Carmania, armed as an auxili
ary cruiser, attacked and sank a Ger
man armed merchant cruiser, either
the Captrafalgar, or the Berlin, off
the east coast of South America.
Jules Vedrlnes, the noted French
•viator, was credited with a cour
«OUH fight In mid-air with a Oerman
aviator who he brought to earth. The
German was daringly reconnolterlng
the postllon of the allies when Ve
drlnes ascended.
September 21.—The allies apparent
ly have scaled the walls of the plateau
and now hold the heights, but ahead
of them they have found Von Kluck
in great strength and now are await-,
lng the outcome of the attempt to
turn his flank, which would clear the
road fqr them.
The Russian grip on the scattered
Austrian forces in Gallcl* Is holding
relentlessly. According to Petrograd
advices, the fortress of Jaroslau Is be
ing bombarded; Przemysl has been
Invested and General Danklln's army
which is retreating toward Cracow,
has been surrounded.
The casualty lists show that 797
British officers are among the killed,
wounded and missing, a very high
percentage of the total losses. Among
these are 32 colonels and lieutenant
colonels, 65 majors and 246 captains, j
The Coldstream Ouards lost 31
of their officers, the highest on the
list.
After several days of battle near
Kroupani, 10 miles from the Bosnian
border, In which 250,000 Austrians
were engaged, the Austrians suffered
*a complete defeat and are flying In
panic from the banks of the river
Drlna.
The German right wing has been
very greatly reinforced as also has
the centre. The main force is be
tween Berry-au-Bac and the forest of
the Argonne.
September 22—The French and
British on several occasions succeed
ed In surprising and driving back the
occupants of the German trenches, but
only after the most stubborn fighting
and heavy losses to both sides. In
every Instance the allied troops re
tained the ground captured and Im
mediate? dug themselves in. »
The Rome correspondent of the
Star, says the Servian and Montene
grin troops have occupied Sarajevo,
-which was abandoned by the Aus
trians after an overwhelming defeat.
Sarajevo Is the capital of Bosnia. It
is a fortified town of some 27,000 in
habitants.
Two of five German submarine boats
which attacked and sank the British
cruisers Abouklr, Cressy, and Hogue
were sent to the bottom by the Brit
ish ships, according to survivors from
the cruisers.
The French official report Issued
late today again lays some stress on
the announcement that an advance is
being made by the allies' left wing on
the right bank of the river Oise, from
which point both the public and the
military experts look for first indica
tions of how the battle Is likely to end.
Russian troops have occupied the
fortified Austrian position of Jaroslau,
according to official announcement
made here today. The Russian flat ia
now flying over the town.
A dispatch received here from the
Hook of Holland says the Duteh
steamer Tlton has arrived there bring
ing twenty British wounded and some
dead, picked up in the North Sea after
the sinking of the Brtllsh cruisers
Abouklr, Hogue and Cersay.

berg 92,000 men captured and 1(0,000
men killed. A hostile aeroplane drop
ped two bombs near Dusaeldorf Air
ship Hall. The explosion of the
missels caused no damage.
No news concerning the fighting in
France was given out today except
the statement issued by the German
headquarters staff, which said the
Cathedral of Rhelms was' respected
until the French establlahed an ob
servation on the spire to direct the
French artillery Ore.
Michael Schwab, a prominent Ba
varian Socialist, serving in the land
wehr, has been decorated with the
Order of the, Iron Cross for bravery
on the field.

ported from Vienna that the Austrian
forces now have been concentrated in
their new positions for several days,
but have waited in vain for any aer
lous Russian attack."
Heavy artillery continues to play i
a leading pan In the battle of the;
Alsne which haa been in progress
nearly a fortnight The opposing
forces continue to hammer away at
each other from their well entrenched
and strongly fortified position with the
greatest stubbornsss, but without de
cision.
The Servian and Montenegrin arm
ies are before Sarajevo, capital of
Bosnia, flushed ■with victory and pre
paring to take this latest acquisition
of the Dual Monarchy, the possess
ion of which by Austria has been such
a thorn In the side of -the Southern
Slavs.
The Austrian general staff denies
reports ot Russian victories and the
defeat of Gen. Dankl's army. The
Austrian forces, the report says,
"have been concentrated In a new
position for several days, but have
waited in vain for aa serious Russian
attack."
Heavy fighting is proceeding at dif
ferent points to the South of Antwerp,
says a dispatch from Amsterdam to
the Renter Telegram Company. At
one place, the name of which was de
lected by the Belgian censor, a Ger
man force of 2,000 men was routed,
many being killed, wounded or taken
prisoners.
A correspondent telegraphs from
Trieste that two Austrian torpedo
boats and one torpedo boat destroyer
were sunk by floating mines on the
coast ot Dalmatla, according to a
Havas dispatch from Rome.
September 25.—Almost simultan
eously the two great hammer strokes
in the battle in Northern France tmve
fallen and some decisive result must
be announced befqre long. The allies
have struck the Oerman right wing,
and the Germans have hurled them
selves against the French line be
tween Verdun and Toul.
In Gallcla the Russians have an
nexed a few more towns and are per
fecting their plan for an attack on
Pezemysl, an advance against General
Dankl and, eventually, the fortress o
Crasow.
The Australian navy has added an
other German possession in the South
Pacific to its list of captures. This
time it U Kaiser Wllhelm's land, the
Oerman portion of New Guinea, one
of the Emperor's .most valuable colon
ies In th*.t part of the world.
The French and British navlea have
annexed the Island of 'ltssa, in the
Adriatic. .
German airships and aeroplanes
again have been flying along the Bel
gian and French coast and have drop
ped bombs at Ostend and Boulogne,
without doing a great amount of dam
age. They have not ventured across
the channel but are expected to do so
when conditions are favorable.
A dispatch to the Italian newspaper
Messaggero, forwarded to Paris by
the Rome correspondent of the Havas
Agency, nays that the allied forces
have landed in Delmatla after bom
barding the fortified harbor of Llssa.

September 26. —The Russian gener
al staff reports a battle between the
Russians and Germans in the region
cf Druskenhlli in the Government ot
Suwalkl, Russian Poland, bordering
on Prussia, but gives no details.
The Netherlands Government has
declared martial law In the Eastern
provinces, according to an American
dlspateh, to prevent the exportation
of contraband of war to Germany and
at the same time Orea* Britain take*
a clear position in the matter of the

not Intended for German consumption.
Prince Osear, the Emperor's fifth
son, according to the announcement
from Berlin, has been obliged to with
draw from the regiment beoeuse of
an affection of the heart, brought on
by over exertion.
The British official reports are ex
ceedingly meager. In keeping with the
determination of the British authori
ties to enforce a rigid censorship. The
official press bureau merely announces
such activity on the part ot the Oer
msns ell along the line and the re
