This was one of the hottest days of the season, the temperature reaching 91 at 3 o'clock this aft ernoon. A slight shower while the sun shone brought hundreds of people out of their offices and homes to get the benefit of the rainfall. To-night in many churches where mid-week prayer services were held supplications were ottered to the Dvien Being for rain. The drought in the Valley has reached a seri ous turn, and to-night a mass meeting of farmers was held at the Jefferson Township Schoolhouse to hear an explanation I Travel with These Old Travelers American Express Travelers Cheques are almost as readily accepted in Europe as $10 bills here.

County Agent Higgins reports farmers from all sections are reporting losses on nearly all crops and vegetables, except strawberries. All of the streams are the low. est they have been for several years. The Apple Electric Company's plant at Third street and the Canal was ravaged by flames shortly after 3 o'clock this morning, a loss of having been sustained to the machinery and stock and about on buildings, dis tributed among Joseph Gebhart, W.

D. Graves. E. E. Buvinger.

Henry Gagle and J. D. Whitmore. The losses are well covered by Insurance. The Apple Electric Company will rebuild at once.

The machine shop, the as sembly room and the battery department of the plant were entirely destroyed. The highest water pressure ye re corded at the Dayton View standpipe today wss 30 pounds, an Improvement that gave some relief during part of the day to, the residents of that suburb. This change was due to the removal of the pump from the linden-avenue Station to the distressed section of the city, which has been thirsting during the present heated spell. To-night another pump was removed, and It is hoped that the situation will be met temporarily. It Is thought that by Monday the 26 new wells at Tate's Hill will be In full operation.

Disappointment was met to-night at a meeting of the North Dayton Citisens' League when President Leon Smith reported the result of his conference during the day with the members of the City Commission relative to the elimination of the Keowee street grade crossing, which Is not included In the abolition The Commissioners explained that when the matter is submitted to a vote of the people.

Washington. May 27. Reports: from i London, that Professor Perclval Lowell, director of the Flagstaff Observatory, in Arizona, who is in London, has recelvd word from Projf. Slipher, that spectro- grams, made ad Flagstaff, show Virgo's nebula rotating, were received with inter est in scientific (circles to-day as possibly throwing new light on the problem of stellar evolution and the origin of the universe. Professor Fowle.

acting director of the Smithsonian Asro-Physical Observatory, said to-day of the reported discovery and Its relation to tjie nebular hypothesis on the origin of the earth: "Nebulae are great masses of gas ap pearing like gigantic pin wheels and have been looked upon as worlds in the process of formation. They suggested La Place's famous nebular hypothesis of the origin of the eath and solar system. "Their appearance suggests rotation. but they are so far away that even though rotating with velocities of many miles a second. In centuries such motion toward.

adjacent stars would be inappre- clable to the eye like the speedometers of automobiles, indicate at once the speeds of bodies, but the nebulae are so very faint, most of khem being Invisible to the unaided eye. that only with the most powerful telescopes may spectrograms be obtained of them. "This discovery of Slipher Is interesting as throwing new light on the problem of stellar evolution 'and its origin. Although the rotaUon was. suspected, no 3 guess could have been made as to its magni tude, which SJipher's spectrogram will probably tell.

I LOT Defined By Bryan, Beyond Which Adminis tration Cannot Go To Aid Those Investing in Other Countries Needs and Shortcomings of Our Foreign Trade DiscussedBy Represent a tires of Important Industries and Leaders in Economic Movements. Washington. May 27. Five hundred manufacturers and representatives of commercial organizations launched the first National Foreign Trade Convention here to-day, with prominent speakers analyzing perils and opportunities for commerce abroad At a banquet to-night Secretary Bryan outlined the Administration's attitude toward the campaign for Industrial relations with other countries "So far as It Is possible to do so." th-Secretary said, "It is our desire to obtain for Americans equality of opportunity in the development of the re sources of foreign countries and the mar kets of the world.

While this Government wishes to expand Its foreign trade and to encourage those who seek in for eign lands a field for American capital and labor, it cannot in any way assume responsibility for or guarantee the financial standing of Americans who engage in commercial or industrial enterprises beyond the boundaries of the United States." Mr. Bryan said thst if wrong were done an American citizen in his legitimate business relations with a foreign Government diplomatic officials would be In structed to employ their g-ood offices to secure Justice, but that "the support promised by this Government does not imply any obligation to Interfere by forjre or by themensx-e of force In the financial nanciai les."

Mr. Straight sajld he thought President Wilson and 8e.Mje-tary Bryan felt that the combination (of six powers was "holding a financial club over the head of the ik young republic and endeavoring to extract from China certain benefits and privileges tc whljeh they were not Mr. Straight said: "We are still ln China on one railway loan. but added that difficulty had been encountered in getting an equal show with other countries In the sale of manufactures.

These na tions derive practically their entire In come from their customs dues. Possession of the custom houses, therefore. Is tr aim of each recurring revolution.

"If we Insist that the European coun tries shall not intervene, me united States must assume a corresponding responsibility. If we object to the enforcement of the mortgage, we must actl as receivers ourselves, and must either by congreswlonaf enactment guarantee the foreign debt of these countries, or by-diplomatic arrangement and by utilizing the services or American Da niters, urtng about financial reorganization by the jes-tabllshment of reliable customs fol-lectorates.

Hampered By Sherman Law.

"The Sherman Law and Its Effect Export Trade" was the title of a paper submitted by John D. Ryan, President; of the Amalgamated Copper Company. New York. Mr. Ryan said that while the Sherman act in 1800 was Intended to protect the American consumer, the debates which preceded Its passaare failed to sug gest or hint that the consumers of other countries were to be protected by the statute.

He said in part: "Are American products of the soli and of the mines and forests always to be sold abroad In enforced competition? Is every I producer of this country to be compelled by our Government to undersell his neigh bor in order to market his product in foreign countries? We have to meet not only the enforced competition of our own but also the combined buyers of other countries where combinations are legal. We meet the combined buyers! of Europe In selling our great treasures of the soil the mines and the forests, and we meet them each of us fighting not only for himself, but against his own countrymen, and the combined buying strength makes its terms against the divided sellers' necessity. When we load our products on the pier for export we meet the shipping combine German, English. French. We pay the rates they! tlx In their pools and combination.

We sell our products to the combined buyers! of foreign nations, and they fix the price! at which they will trade. "Much has been said about conservation of our natural resources, but how can this beneficent policy be more ruthlessly defeated than by the sale of our mineral and forest products to foreign consumers at prices which are less than those which might and should prevail If American producers with respect to such for elgn markets, have the same privilege of protecting prices as the citizens of other countries?" James A. Farrell. President of the United States Steel Corporation, told: the convention that a greater use of foreign markets would stabilize domestic conditions of Industry. He urged co-operation among American manufacturers to broaden the country's foreign trade, and said: i "Every business house, every firm, whether in trade or; In the professions, every Chamber of Commerce, Board of Trade and commercial organization In fact every man.

woman and child in these United States has a (vital personal Interest in the furthering our export trade. "In the production or manufacture of our of annual exports labor represents 80 per cent of the value. The wages, which are paid In the production and distribution of these exports, amount to approximately f2.O0O.0O0.OOO annually. It may be Treasonably assumed that this involves the employment of 2.000.000 men. about one out of every ten in; this country." To the serious situation caused by the decrease of the excess of export over imports Mr.

Farrell drew apec.al attention. The excess averaged about iiOo.000 a month In 1013. but In 1014 was only and in Maicli only g5.O0O.O00. He said: "It is not only essential that we should increase and stimulate our export trade to enchance our country's prestige and wealth, but this Is I rapidly becoming a necessity in order thst the domestic consumption of the country, which is recur-rlngly Insufficient to absorb the capacity of our plants, mill-, work -fP other avenues of production should be supplemented by the: export trade." Draws a Lesson From England. In a paper on "The Future of Foreign Trade." James J.

Hill, of St. Paul, compared the per capita value of the foreign trade of the United States, which Is S41. to that of Germany, which Is $67. and that of the United Kingdom, which is $12S. He i "But England is losing to Germany.

She controlled so large a share of the world commerce In manufactures for so long that she encouraged or permitted the establishment of conditions that left her hands tied as against a free competitor. The reason for dwelling at some length i. that the United States is following her example. The power of the English trades' I unions became practically arbitrary In fixing wages, hours and general working conditions. "Widespread and (long-continued industrial distress in England comes from attempting to hold markets against com-netitors while maintaining a wag- scale that does not rrmit her to met their prices and does not offer to capital an inducement to go Into new fields of development or evenj to remain where It has hitherto been (occupied.

She meets this not by removing the shackles from hr industries, but by fastening other shackles on her capitalists, fetters that must be added later to those that already gall the limbs of labor. It would eem tnai win uin passing before our eyesv and the veil of the future almost lifted for our benefits. we should not be tievond the reach of helpful suggestions- or find rational con duct difficult, but (ine iurun Pi. unwise restricted legislation and unnecessary taxation upon business In the United States are producing their natural effects here also Just such mlsta1ls as Great Britain has maJe and is making may confront the American work'ngman with a lost Job. an empty cupboard and no younger and more promising land to which he may emigrate.

The future of our Industry must be worked out here and by ourselves. Ixiting gradually the advantages that our position and resources have given us up to a recent date nothing bixt deeper wisdom and a krenfr of Justice toward iall factors must prevail to create national prosperity and keep us at the front In the race with other nations or even Insure us asralnst disappointment, disorder and economic distress at home." Cites Cut-Throat Competition. P. A. 8.

Frankllnl Vice President of the Mercantile Marine. (defended combinations of shipping lines as a necessary alternative of "cut-throat competition." while Victor Vorn. of the New York Fruit Exchange, contended that absence of com. petition in the Mediterranean "resulted in lack of proper facilities" for bringing fruit to the United States. P.

H. W. Ross. President of the National Marine league. asserted foreign trade was needed to liquidate the indebtedness of the United 8'ates to European Investors, and contended export trade could not attain large proportions without an American foreign-going merchant marine.

Smith. President of the. American Laundry Machinery Company, contended that the Government withheld help that "the business world had a right to expect In view of th help given by other nations to their commerce." Dlfflcultlej in the way of establishing American banks In the Southern republics were descrloed by John F. Gardlne. Vice President of (the National Clly Bank of New York.

Clarence J. Owens. Managing Director the Southern Commercial Congress, said he spoke with the authority of President Wilson when he said the President honed that all so-called partisan questions would be settled at the present session of Congress I so that the remainder of his term might be left to deal with construction questions, such as the merchant marine and, other subjects regardless of party. I Secretary Redfield. of the Department of Commerce, told the manufacturers that he knew of i no one who had tried to restrict or hamer export trade, and declared American Industries did not use available scientific knowledge.

He promised to employ his aid to "remove any barriers that mayUtftnd In th way of our foreign trade, whether they be at home or" abroad." i J. E. STUBBS DEAD. Former Baldwin University Presi- dent Dies in Nevada. Reno.

Churchmen from all parts of the United Statea came to attend the ceremony.

The university Is a notable experiment In higher education. Applications for admission from more than 1,900 students have been received. Plans have been made to accommodate 2,000 students.
