McCabe sever met with a serious accident. He retired from active life in November. 1913. The Freight Situation. It is the steady enlargement of the ore movement that has caused those close to the business to predict all ships will be in commission by 8ept- 1- Coal shipments are expected to improve at that time aid grain shipments will begin to assume something Uke fall proportions by then.

The Lake Michigan ports will begin 'O ship heavily the latter part of next month and everything indicates Lake shippers will have grain a little earllsr than last year. The grain moved out of Lake Superior ports doea not reach large proportions until Oct. 1 and If it replaces the lighter ore shipments through November, It will have served its principal function in the lake steamboat business. The fitting out that Is done now sad the rest of the season will be In anticipation of brisk business after Sept. 1, the period when the ship owners hope to get some paying cargoes to offset partly the loss of revenue due to the enforced idleness of part of their fleets during the spring and summer.

Wreckage From Choctaw. Wreckage from the steamer Choctaw, which sank south of Presque Isle last Mor-day after being struck by the steamer Wahcondah during a heavy fog, was plckrd up by members of the Middle Island ceeV-guard crew Monday morning, and also by Patrick Garrity. lighthouse keeper, anl taken to the island. More wreckage Is visible from Middle Island. The wreckage recovered consisted of 40 feet of the cabin and timbers.

It was picked up one mile north of the island. Ashore and Released. The steamer J. B. Bads, down bound with the barge James Nasmytb in tow, went aground below the St.

Clair canal cut Monday night. The barge did not strike her. The tug. A. C.

Harding and the lighter Rescue were sent to the Eads and sue was released yesterday afternoon after lightering pert of her ore cargo. Outlook Improving. In. spite of light coal shipments some Independent vessel owners are fitting out additional ships. This Is quite in line with "the prediction of shippers that all of the ships will be In commission by September 1st at the latest.

The fact that the United States Steel Corporation' will ship more than 20,000,000 tons of ore this season, as stated by Vice-President Kerr, does not mean thai Pittsburgh Steamship Co. will have a large in crease in ore tonnage to give out. The shipments of the company have been en a 20,000,000 ton basis for some time. Bow much more than 20,000,000 tons the company will have to move la not known, but when it is understood that 20.000,000 is about 80 per cent, of the normal movement It Is evident a good big Increase would not cause any crowding on the lakes. Independent ore shippers generally are increasing shipments, but also are receiving some orders to delay shipments the rest of the month aa the Increase in ordera is not all gain.

There la some gain, however, and the boat owners are meeting the larger demand with more tonnage. Cause of Gas Explosion. Through J. F. Schroder, cooling plant inspector, a request was sent to United States steamboat inspectors asking then) to inform city officials at Cleveland of the cause of the recent explosion aboard the steamer Thomas Walters at Superior, is which Chief Engineer Harry Reynolds was killed.

Councilman John W. Reynolds has received a communication from Mr. Sch refer, inclosing a letter from the Inspectors, stating so far as could be learned the cause of the explosion, which occurred in a carbonic add tank, was the use of two different kinds of gases. Mr. Schreffler explained to the councilman that apparently carboya containing oxygen, carbon dioxide and other gases, have no permanent distinguishing marks, and are labeled only with tag.

The councilman la considering the information with a view to possible action to guard against similar accidents at Cleveland. PORT OF BUFFALO.

Mary's, a Distance of S00 Miles. July 21. A proposition by which the Western ft Atlantic railroad, owned by the State or Georgia, shall be extended to the sea has been submitted to the Georgia state senate. The proposition is submitted by Henry C. Ferriott, construction expert in the employ of the Atlantic Waycross Northern railway, who urges that the state extend the Western ft Atlantic from Atlanta, a distance of three hundred miles, to St.

Mary's, purchasing all of the Atlantic, Waycross Northern property. He said that the road from Atlanta to St. Mary's would cost about $13,000 a mile, or $3,900,000 the entire distance, and that the whole proposition would probably cost the state less tl an $6,000,000. GRAIN DELIVERIES. Increase Over Previous Week Shown In Returns From Chicago.

Grain deliveries at Chicago last week were 804,000 bushels over the previous week, equal to 25 per cent. The showing was small as compared with last year, there being a decrease of 4,530,000 bushels, or 52.5 per cent, from last year, and 1,325,000 bushels, or 24.4 per cent, from the five-year average. Increases for the week were bushels corn and 382,000 bushels oats. The big reduction from last year was 5,056,000 bushels wheat; while the corn deliveries gained bushels. BALDWIN LOCOMOTIVE.

To Incorporate a Munitions Company to Take Care of War Orders. Philadelphia, July 21. To handle the orders for war munitions received by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, the Eddystone Munitions Company will be Incorporated immediately and will be expended in the erection of new buildings at the Eddystone branch of the Baldwin Works. Reports from Chicago to the effect that Baldwin Works is to erect a plant there and that Samuel M. Felton, president of the Chicago Great Western, has has been offered a salary of $250,000 to manage the plant, are said to be unfounded in fact by officials of the Baldwin Company.

GRAIN TONNAGE OFF. While the Chicago grain tonnage is reported far behind last year, the movement ot miscellaneous freight and merchandise is said to be gener ally aa large to slightly above last year's. Coal tonnage is about the same as last year, but in other lines ot freight it is lighter. CHARGES DISAPPROVED. Washington, July 21.

Charges proposed on "trap" or ferry car" services which would have imposed a burden of several million dollars a year on industries of the country were disapproved today by the interstate commerce commission. SENDING TELEGRAM EASY FOR CHINESE. Strange as it May Seem, the New China Can Readily Simplify the Telegraphic Code. Those who patronize a Chinese laundry remember that a piece of paper containing tome Chinese characters Is given to them by the proprietor of the place to present when they call for their bundles. snd they wonner wny ins comes cnim-ters on the paper are not the same ns those written on the papers they previously received.

It certainly is to understand unless they know the Chinese written language has several thousand different characters which cannot be speUed so as to Indicate accurate ly how they tre pronounced, worse yet, there are hundreds of ways of pronouncing each character, as there are hundreds of spoken dialects In China, although the book language is the sane throughout the country. They will be more than surprised If they are told that sending a telegram in Chinese is not only possible but less troublesome and expensive than dispatrh-lnt a message in English. There Is In every Chinese telegraph office a special dictionary, or catalogue, or code book, what ever you may choose can It, in which the characters are numbered from 1 on np 8,999 under tre present system. A certain number of bla.ik spaces have been reserved to add specif i characters from time to time. The sender of the telegram simply writes his message in the usual way.

The operator will probably know the numbers ot most of the characters. If not he can readily them in the catalogue. For each character he sends five Morse signals, e. 5013. 0013, 0414 which represent the characters "Yuan Shi KaV the name of the President of China- It wiQ at once appear that only ten different signals are needed for telegraphing 9.990 different characters in Chinese.

By splitting up an unusual character -into its component parts it may be easily sent, private codes are readily prepared with this system. I am told.

St. Louis, July 21. The property, franchises and all other of the Wabash railroad, a 1220.000.000 corporation, were sold under the hammer tor 118,000,000 to the joint reorganisation committee of the road's creditors under foreclosure here today to satisfy a $41,000,000 mortgage of which the Equitable Trust Company of New York is trustee. The Wabash Railroad Company went into the hands of receivers on December 18.

1911. The receivers were appointed on petition of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company which had a claim of $18,000 against the railroad. On January 1, 1912, obligations totaling $1,205,000 were due, and inability to provide for these and other payments brought on the receivership. When the road went into bankruptcy it was stated that the primary cause Of the failure was the liability of the Wabash for a $9,800,000 note issue of the Wheeling Lake Erie, the Wa bash connection into Pittsburgh. In terest in excess of $300,000 was due on this Issue on February 1, 1912.

i no receiversmp proceedings were brought after several months had been spent In an effort to put the property on a sound basis. The receivers during their control of the road put it in first-class condition physically. Definite plans for the reorganization of the road were made in the spring of 1914, and in May of that year a detailed plan of reorganization was submitted to the public service commissions of the states in which the Wabash operates. The plan provided for a total capitalization of a reduction of $10,000,000 from the capitalization of the bankrupt company. The plan however, was abandoned in October of 1914 partly, it was stated, as a result of the European war.

but primarily as a result of the demoralization of the American investment market. The notice of the abandonment of the reorganization plan said that increased taxes, and reduced rates had left the net returns for the year short of the sum necessary to pay th' interest on lyderlying bonds. The foreclosure decree was issued on the application of the Equitable Trust Company of New York, trustee of a mortgage against the road. Chester H. Krum was appointed special master to conduct the sale.

EASTBOUND TRAFFIC. Chicago Reports Encouraging Increase In Miscellaneous Business. Chicago, July 21. An increase of five per cent in shipments of freight from Chicago east-bound last week was due mainly to the growth of miscellaneous tonnage, which more than oft-set losses in other classes. It was the best showing in this line ot late, and reflected a better business in leading lines.

West-bound traffic was also good, as there is more steel and general freight being moved, and raw materials are also cutting a more important figure. Shipments to the South and Southeast, were larger, and ahead ot last year's. Light stocks of all grains were against a heavy tonnage in that line. Init shipments to the East increased 141.000 bushels last week, but were the lightest at this time in over four years, and 1.142,000 bushels below those Ot 1914. Flour shipments increased 7,000 barrels for the week, and lost 15,000 barrels from last year.

Provisions tonnage was the largest in years at this season, gaining 1,614 tons for the week, and .011 barrels over last Tear's. TOHWHAGE TAILS OFF. Traffic Not Making Good a Show, ing as at This Time Last Year. Chicago. July 21.

The first spring rain fell dow en me today, And as It touched my face It bathed away The stain of every past regret; its freshness fallina- on my area and hair I TaM th.r. were fulfilment every where That love could sorely not forget. A gust ot winter wind blew up tonight. And as It touched my face It seemed to blight The hope the first spring rain begot; Its harshness falling on my hair and eyes Told me that wantom springtime whisp ered lies That long ago had love forgot.

LIFE INSURANCE 1 How Children Are Being Taught Rud iments of Fearlessness For Use When Emergency Arises. It is fear and not fire that causes the great loss of life in almost all of the disasters which periodically come to big cities, say men who have studied the subject Starting with this text, it is argued that it is possible to supply life insurance to children by educating them along lines that ban ish panic. The system la merely that of taking a dangerous situation, analysing it and ascertaining how it might have been robbed of its terror, and then show ing how a cool head can master condl tions that deem difficult For instance, there. was the Triangle Shirt Waist fire, where nearly 150 women and girls were killed. This new system of life Insurance forms part of the course of instruction at some schools.

In one case in which very young children are among the pupila an open air gymnasium has been rigged up in the rear yard of the school building for the teaching of the safety course. In there are iron ladders, rope ladders and swinging rings. Little boys and girls ot three and four years of age romp about the ladders with the utmost ease. They are taught that the iron ladders are Just like the ladders of the. city fire escape and that as long aa they can get their little hands and feet on the rungs they are assured of a safe road to escape from fire.

The fear of being high above the ground, with only a slim ladded for support, is eliminated by teaching the youngsters that a ladder 100 feet high Is Just aa strong and just as safe aa a ladder four feet above the ground, and that the trained child doea not fear the distance, which, after all, cuts no real figure in the task of ladder climbing. It is thus that the first element of fear is eliminated from the childish brain. And then the pupils are taught to look over a dangerous situation, take stock of Its possibilities and think for themselves. If the tiro escape Is not open by reason of the fire and smoke, they axe taught that they may use a rope and go safely hand over hand to the ground, or that a careful inspec tion may reveal that a perfectly safe path lies over the roof to the next house. This Instruction la by no means confined to the children.

The classes contain pupils of all ages up to that of the collegian, and the young and old alike come in for the safety first course. The pupils are sent over the travel ling rings of the gymnasium to give them confidence. They are taught to crawl over the ledge of a window without losing their heade because the ledge is high above the ground. They are taught to look over the top of the building and correctly estimate the surroundings without becoming dizzy snd acquiring that desire to Jump that is so common to persons who gaze down from the top ot a skyscraper to the street below. Bat while the underlying essential, la net the only thing taught in this safely school.

The pupils are taught how to knot ropes so that a knot Is made every foot of the rope's length, thus making the descent easy. They are taught not to elide down a rope, burning the hands and inviting Injury. Instead they are shown how to work gradually down, by the hand-over-hand method, using the knots It they are already prepared, and If not, making the arm muscles serve to complete an easy, safe trip without strain ty dangersNew!
