Rats and Fires.
At a time when everyone la com-
plaining of the high coat of living It
might be well to nee If we cannot elim-
inate two great sources of waate—Urea
and rats.
Moat Area are needles*. All rata
are so. Some years ago a study of the
rat problem In Philadelphia arrived at
the conclusion that the rodents of that
city ate more than a million dollara'
worth of food each year. At that rate,
the disgusting creatures can hardly
cost less thnn $100,000,000 per year
to the whole country. This la a pret-
ty high price to pay for the compan-
louahlp of Impish pesta which, besides
their other bad habits. undermine
floora and carry the moat dreaded of
•II dlaeasea, bubonic plfffeue.
Yet fires are more expenalve than
rats. In 1915—the laat year for which
figures are at hand—the American
people paid out In premluma for lire
Inaurance $419.301.3441. Of thla vaat
sum at leaat three-fcurtha could be
aaved by reducing our fire record to
the rate prevailing In England. France
or Germany; and even In our time and
nation $300,000,000 per year la a sav-
ing worth noting, and one which
would have a perceptible effect on tha
coat of living.

Washington. — President Wilson's
policy, outlined in his address to ion
Kress, of paying America's war bill, so
far as possible while the war is beihg
' waged, leaving a minimum debt to pos-
terity. was reflected In a decision oy
I leaders In the house and senate to
raise 50 per cent of tha flrat year's ex-
pend'tures by taxation.
Under this program cor.gresa will be
called upon to raise war revenue to
the extent of $1,750,000,000 through
new and increased measures of taxa-
tion during the fiscal year ending June
I 30. 1918.
This Is exclusive of the $5,000,000,-
000 bond li#ue. authorisation for
which will be sought of congress this
week The totnl demand upon the fi-
nancial resources of the country dur-
the first year of war. under this pro-

ly stated would be lent to the entente
allies. The entire issue, house and
senate leadera have agreed, will bear
interest at the rate of 31* per cent. It
ia proposed to make the loan to the
alliea at thia interest rate, which Is
lower far than the rate they have been
compelled to pay on their previous Is-
sues.
After the entente governments have
been granted the loan, the plan is to

the $5,000,000,000 to be applied, as ne

tions are that with the war revenue

ONE ARREST IN 0KLA. CITY
German, Suspected of Espionage,
Taken In Charge By Officers.
Oklahoma City.—The first "spy" ar-
rest in Oklahoma City was made by-
federal officers, when they took up
Felix Reinhardt, a German, charged
with being "an alien enemy of the
United States." Reinhardt was taken
to the county jail, where he was ex-
amined and held for further investi-
gation without bail.
According to United States Attor-
ney Fain, who filed the information.
Reinhardt has been suspected and
has been watched for some time by-
federal secret agents, and was pre-
paring to go to Mexico. He is de
acribed by federal officials as an "agi-
tator." and as being in frequent con-
ferences with other suspects who are
under aurveyance by federal officers.
L*st week a passport to Mexico
arrived for ReitHkardt. His arrest fol-
lowed.
MUNITIONS BOARD NAMED.
Cleveland Manufacturer To Manage
Supply of Ammunition.
Waahlngton.—Creation of a general
munitions board was announced by
the council of national defense. It
will be headed by Frank A. Scott, a
Cleveland manufacturer, and will be
charged with supplying the army and
navy with munitions and equipment.
One of its chief functions will be to
decide between the country's military
and industrial needs.
The board's establishment puts into
the hands of a group of army and
navy officers and industrial leaders
virtuaTlt the same task given the
British minister of munitions. It
creates machinery for a government
department of munitions with its
head a cabinet minister of which con-
duct of the war brings the need.
Active military and naval participa-
tion in the conflict many believe will
produce that necessity.
GERMAN SPIES ARRESTED
Government Drsgnet Acts Without Un-
necessary Formslity.
Washington.—The arrest of sixty
ringleaders in German plota, conspira-
cies and machinations in the United
States, were ordered by Attorney Gen-
eral Gregory Immediately after Presi-
dent Wilson signed the war resolu-
tion.
Kvery man arrested is a German
Cltlxen and is known by the depart
ment of justice, to have participated
actively in Herman intrigues In this
country. Hall will be refused in eacn
ease. The entire group will be locked
up. unless there Is s change In present
laws, for the duration of the war.
St. Louis Is Safely Horns.
New York Running safely through
the danger of the Germau submarine
blockade of Ureal Hritain and with-
out sighting a periscope, either on ths
outward or homeward journey, the
American mail and passenger Itner
St, Louis arrived at her home dock.
The St 1a>u1s was the first American
passengec boat to be armed and travel
through the danger tone around the
British Isles since Germany's declara-
tion of January SI, and she was well
armed for the trip. But her guns

With the British Armies In France.
—The war. on the western front
which has been moving more rapidly
In the last five weeks, broke into full
swing April 9. Widening attacks that
they have been directing against the
retreating Hermans in theaector of
t"he Sotnme. the British struck still
further north and In a series of as-
saults on a broad front, with Arras
more or less tt.e pivotal point, they
drove the Germans from scores of im-
portant positions, penetrated far into
the German lines and inflicted heavy
casualties.
The heaviest fighting developed
along a line a few miles southeaest
of Arras, in a northerly direction to
the neighborhood of Lens, but ths
actions extended far In the direction
of St. Quentin. In the territory cap-
tured was the famous Vlmy ridge,
which has been fought over time and
time again ever since the war was
ten months old. The French had
fought desperately and valiantly In
an endeavor to wrest this vantage
ground from the Germans, the battle
costing both belligerents untold cas-
ualties. Back of the northern end
of Vimy ridge lie the principal coal
fields of France, which are still in
German hands.
INTERNED SHIPS SEIZED
Ninety-one Merchant Vessels In Ameri-
can Ports Taken Over.
Washington.—Under orders from
the treasury department United States
customs, naval and other officials
seised all German ships in United
States ports, a total of ninety-one ves-
sels with an aggregate tonnage of
nearly 700,000 with a value of nearly
$100,000,000.
Seiiures of the ships, according to
an official statement are measures of
safety for the ahips themselves and
adjoining property. The crews aboard
are regarded as German reservists on
German territory.
The further question of what is to be
done with the fleet now cornea up for
consideration. Two courses, it was
said, are open to the government:
The ships will be put into service
and be paid for at the cloae of the war.
or they may be confiscated altogether
without violating the terms of the
Prussian-American treaty of 1828.
Many officials oppos the latter course
unless it should be decided to take it
upon the principle of taking a ship for
every American ship destroyed illeg-
ally by a submarine.
The first step now. at any rate, prob-
ably will be to repair the damage done
to the machinery of the ships by their
crews on orders of the German gov-
ernment when diplomatic relations
were severed.
SAVES NAVY $18,000,.000
Steel Msnufscturers Decide On Prices
With Secretary Daniels.
Washington.— A saving of eighteen
million dollars in the navy's bill for
steel during 1917 and of more than two
millions in a single order for torpedoes
are represented in urice agreements
effected with the manufacturers by
Secretary Daniels.
The schedule of prices for a year's
supply of steel agreed on at a confer-
ence between the secretary and J. n.
Farrell, president of the United States
Steel Corporation is the same the
navy paid for its 1916 consignment
and conaiderably below the current
market. Details as to the amount or
exact prices were not made public.
In the case of torpedo orders, Mr.
Dsniels brought the manufacturing
concern, the E. W. Bliss Co. of Brook-
lyn, to terms by invoking several
days ago for the flrat time the new
law authorising the government to set
a reasonable price for navy material
and compel private plants to abide by
them. The company accepted a price
of $1,578 per torpedo, about two-thirda
of their bid price.
AUSTRIA BREAKS WITH U. S.
I
DE 'IDES TO STAND BY GER-
MAN MASTERS IN WAR.
Fourteen Austrian Vessels Are ;
Promptly Seized in Ameri-
can Harbors.
I Washington. — Austria - Hungary,
ranging herself unreservedly with
Germany, has severed diplomatic re-
lations with the United States, pre-
cipitating a situation which general-
ly is expected here to lead to war.
Baron Erich Zwiedinek, the Aus-
trian charge, asked the state depart-
ment for his passports for himself,
his staff and the Austrian consul force
In thia country; and simultaneously,
American Minister Stovaii reported
from Berne that Austria had an-
nounced the break in relations to the
American embassy In Vienna.
Whether Bulgaria and Turkey are
preparing to follow suit still is un-
known, but officials generally believe
that sooner or later they will do so.
Bulgarian Minister Panaretoff called
on Secretary Lansing to ask if this
government had any Information
from Sofia, but was told none had
been received. Both Bulgaria and
Turkey are believed here to be weary
of the war. but German domination
of the central European alliance is
expected to drive them, as it drove
Austria, to a break with Germany's
new enemy.
Funrteen Austrian merchant ves-
sels in American ports were taken
over by the government coincident
with the announcement that Austria
had broken diplomatic relations.
Telegrams to the collectors of cus-
toms at the ports concerned were sent
personally by Secretary McAdoo late
instructing that the crews aboard the
vessela be removed and that customs
gusrds be placed in their stead. The
status of the removed crews will be
determined by Immigration authorl-
tlea of the department of labor.
In a formal announcement of the
government'8 action Secretary Mc-
Adoo made it clear that the govern-
ment had not confiscated the vessels
but had acted for the purpose of pro-
tecting them "from further injury."
From this statement it was inferred
that the ahips were damaged by their
crews as in the case of German ves-
sels taken over by the government
upon the declaration of war with Ger-
many.
The vessels thus taken Into the gov-
ernment's keeping were all at Atlan-
tic or gulf ports as follows:
At New York—The Dora. Hlmalaia,
Ida and Martha Washington.
At Boston—The Erny.
At Philadelphia—The Franconia.
Ne Newport News—The Budapest.
At Pensacola—The Lucia.
At Tampa—The Borneo.
At New Orleans—The Anna, Clara
and Teresa.
At Galveston—The Sampania and
Morawitx.
The tonnage of the fourteen ves-
sels totals approximately 67,000 tons.
The largest of the fleet is the Martha
Washington at New York, of 8,312
tons and passenger accommodations
for 1.100 persons; the smallest is the
Anna at New Orleans, of 1,575 tons.
The second largest Is the Dorafi of
7,037 tons. Most of the others are
between 3.000 and 5,000 tons register
and are freighters. All have been
self-Interned since the beginning of
the war.

Two Dollar Wheat.
Chicago.—Two dollar wheat became
an actuality here. The great brwad
making cereal for delivery next month
sold at that prtce at the opening of the
board of trade. It Is the highest price
ever paid here on a normal market.
In 1864 this prtce was exceeded by
values expressed In terms of depre-
ciated paper, and In the 80's Old
Hutch'' manipulated the price in one
of l is famous corners to $2 00 This
price obtained only a moment When
shorts sold with "Old Hutch" the price
immediately dropped to a normal level
Boston.—Richard Olney, secretary
of state under President Grover Cleve-
land, died at his home here.
Richard Olney served successively
as attorney general and aecretary of
state during the administration of
President Cleveland, and although at
the head of the state department for
the short period of one year and nine
months only, he won a reputation as
a statesman of commanding ability
and force. His greatest triumph was
his successful insistence upon arbi-
tration of the boundary dispute be-
tween Great Britain and Venezuela.
Imperturbably disregarding the
warning that a rigid maintenance of
the Monroe doctrine might plunge the
United States into war with Great
Britain. President CleVeland and Sec-
retary Olney carried out their own
ideas of diplomacy and won.
U. S. Flag On French Front.
Parle—The placing of the Lafay-
ette flying corpa under the American
flag to symbolise the entry of the
United Statea into the war haa been
discussed for several days. The
Figaro says the Stars and Stripes
are flying over the headquarters of
the American aviators.
German U Boat Sunk.
Amsterdam. The German torpedo
boat G-88 waa torpedoed and sunk by
an enemy submarine off the Flemish
coast on the night of April 7. accord-

Washington The American steam-

Havana.— Cuba, not yet out of her
'teens aa a republic, la at war with
Germany—the first of the Latin-
has decided to become a belligerent
alongside the United States, her lib-
erator and protector.
President Menocal affixed his sig-
nature to the joint resolution passed
unanimously late Saturday .by both
the senate and house without a dis-
senting voice being raiaed, thus put-
ting into effect the declaration of a
atate of war between Cuba and the
imperial German government.
It did not take the Cuban presi-
dent and congress twenty-four hours
to complete the declaration. A mes-
sage from President Menocal declar-
ing duty, interest and loyalty to the
United States all compelled entrance
into the war. was met by enthusiastic
endorsement In both houses by the
Liberal and Conservative leaders and
the resolution was passed without
opposition.
Panama Plsdgea America Her Aid.
Panama.—The president of the re-
public of Panama. Dr. Ramon Valdex,
signed a proclamation committing
Panama unreservedly to the aasist-
ance of the United States In the de-
fenae of the canal. The president
also canceled the credentials of all
the German consuls in Panama.
Brazil Joins U. 8.
Rio Janeiro.—At a cabinet meeting
it was decided that Brazil should
sever her relations with Germany.
Argentins Is O. K.
Buenos Aires.—The government Is-
sued a declaration announcing that it
supported the position of the United
States in reference to Germany.
The declaration caused a great sen-
sation. Enthusiastic crowds marched
through the streets and the univel--
sity students organised pro-rally dem-
onstrations. Some of the newspapers
say that high officers of the army as-
sert that the military mobilization of
Argentina will follow that of Brazil.
Others May Follow.
Washington.—The early active en-
trance of several more of Phe South
and Central American nations into
the war against Germany is re-
garded as certain. Brazil, aroused by
the sinking of her steamship Parana,
American countries to range herself
and it is assumed that her lead will
be promptly followed by other coun-
tries.
Csntral America to Aid.
Active support of the United States
by at least two of the Central Ameri-
can republics and possibly by four
would not be surprising. Official and
unofficial reports that Estrada Cab-
rera. president of Gautemala. is con-
templating aeriously a break with
Germany have been received. So long
as Mexico's course is undefined, un-
usual Interest Is attached to the posi-
I tion the Central American govern-
| ments especially that of Gautemala,
controlling the southern frontier of
Mexico, will take. In the event of
the development of an unfriendly stt-
| nation in Mexico. It is realised that
Gautemala's role would be far from
unimportant. In Guatemala. Estrada
Cabrera has built up what is regarded
generally as the most efficient army
in Central America, and with it he
would be in a position to lend valu-
! able assistance to the United States,
t Antipathy between Guatemalans and
| Mexicans has existed for years.
Peru.
Lima.—The Peruvian press is of the
opinion that the entrance of the Unlt-
J ed States and Cuba into the war. to-
gether with the sinking of the Brazil-
ian steampship Parana, make it lm-
> i erative for the nations of South
America to formulate a common pol-

say. must be directed againat Ger-

Uruguay.
Montiveideo.—The newspapers de-
vote many columns to the war between

States is a telling blow to Germany,
