The Sued Fair has bt-cttine one of the larl§l'St fi\t7\0|'5

The first three have been held, the latter two will ht-

UNCLE SAM S SURPRISE

Some or the Governmenfs critics in the House 0!

commons, and ,,150 in the Press, have been claiming that thc talllugloff in f,‘anutla'a revenue was due not so much to the wiir as to iuaungetneut.. Such drlvel decelves none l

“me into md did

those in power came under the thumb

|but those who wish to have their eyes holden. The war af-

fected our overseas trade just the same as it affected that of all couiitrIcs'lu or out of the conflict, You cannot have a universal uplicavalnnd expect trade to pursue its nor-

mal course. ‘ Our friends io thc south to whom Sir Edward CNY

;tdmi|\i,;tered a well~deservcd rebuke when he said “unless neutral nations are prepared to assist In throwing the Ger- _utsins out of Belgium no suggestion from them is wanted" -have even inurc ctiuse.tlian ourselves to taint-nt the ef- fct-t of thc war' on their dollar-hunting propensitics. _

Accordliig to the Banking llouse of Henry Clews & Co.,

the total exports of merchandise from the United States for January were $267,800,000, or $63,800,000 ahead ol last year. About $44,000,000 of this iucretisc was credited to brt-adstulls alone and $3,000,000 to mt-nts. In addition tht-re was a laruc increase in shipments of war materials. Some itnportant losses, however, had to he taken into cott- siderntioii, including a decrease of about $8,000,000 in cot- ton and $2,000,000 fn mineral oils, Jauuary‘s total exports have been only twice exceeded; in October, 1913, and again in Noveniber, 1012. The export trade, though satisfactory in \'olunic, has been seriously deranged; and the heavy shrinknges have only been compensated for by shipments oi foodstuffs and war materials, The demand for the latter is liable to sudden fluctuations. Should the Dardanellcs be opened allowing the free exportation of Russian grain, that mtist inevitably have an important effect upon Ameri- can exports of ivlieat; and when peace begins to dawn, ,-imericans may expect a drop in the orders for the munl-` tions of war which have hitherto usefully filled the gap in foreign orders. lu imports there was also a heavy loss, the total for January being $122,000,000, a decreaseoi’ $32,- 500,000, compared with the same month Inst year. This left nu excess in exports of $145,500,000, compared with $300,000,000 a year ago, A more reliable indication of the

effects of war on foreign commerce ivill, however, _be found In the country's record of exports and imports forthe past seven months, or since the war began.’l`l\e l'nited Stat- es total exports within this period have bceu$1,Il!t-1.000.000, or $187,000,000 less than the some time last your. liiiports were $030,600,000, or $137,000,000 less than a year ago. liert: is a loss in exports anti imports combined ot' $324,000,- 000 in thc short space of seven niontlis_ As a result of these fluctuations the excess of exports for one seven months was only $403,900,000, compared with $454,000,000 last year anti $430,000,000 the year before. The fact that the excess of exports has dwindled $50,000,000 in the last seven months is somewhat of a surprise to those “deserv- ing Democrats" who hoped by sivtilloiving their principles to ilohble also the bulk of the world's overseas trade.

THE DOOMED AUSTRIANS

Our war dt-spatclics of thc past few days set-ni to iii-

tlit-att-. cvcn greater successes for the itusslans than were expcrlcntrcd during the earlier stages of the war ivlien re- ports t-nine almost daily of the annihilation ot' an 'Austrain army corps or n rcgitncnt. The title of battle has turned several times since then. The Austriuiis had not all been killed anti they again put up some stiff lights. But the last few days lmve again brotiglit disaster to the Austrians. ‘t'tisti~rda_v’s tlt-spntclics told of wliolti batteries of giuis t-:ipturt-il and of tlotiisivt- Itiissiaii vit°torii~s,

A Uuilapt-st corrt-spomlent ;,'ii't:s an illiiiiiliiutiug des-0

criptlou of thi- Austrian army and Austrian military nictli- otls. llc says: At present the army of Austria-llungory, tho forces in tliti vcld and under training, consist of be- tween 3,500,000 and 4,000,000 mcn, and that is the limit of her mllitttry power, As in t-vcry other state institution, the army is t-xct-cdingly corrupt. Everywhere you can see what bribery anti influt-neo can do in exctitptitii; the rich and n,ristocra.ts from military service, ln Budapest, young ablchodied mon still enjoy life or triivcl as newspaper cor- rcspoiidcnts of favored Gcrniau organs. They are often rich bunkers' sons, whose fathers subscribed to the war loan on condition that their sons would not be culled upon i, to scrvti, anti thousands of other parasites.

l Under such cirt_;uiiit-ttaiicca, naturally the third atul fiiurlli lcvitis oi' buys oi' l7'atul _lncn ol' 45 is n pltinblc initlit, for thc mcttical cxamiutitlun is conlintetl to two t|itt-iitltins, uni: rt-gartllui: coiisiiiiiptloii tht: otlit-r as to laiiiciu-ss.

He gets tweiity»t`our hours to settle hisoivlliuu affairs anti make h is \vill,and then is taken to the other cud oi' tltc country for training.

Before the town hall anti public schools, where these

things go ou. the women and children art~ standing with anxious and weeping eyes, and tht- scenes are indescri-

bable. The period ot' training ol` thee bsoys anti middle- agctl nicii is in some cases not more than tlircc or four iv'-zelis, for they go on the principle that the soldiers learn more at thc front lu six weeks, time than iii six months at tht-_ harraclts. At least.. that is what the military authori- ties ask them to believe. The real reason is, of coitrse. quite tlifftirt-iit. ltcitiforctimciits ot' troops at the froiil was a tcriblc problem for the military uuthoritit-s, The war losses were so great, and the German general staff' so lm- patient. tltey had no choice but to send nieil as they got them, very often after n training of three weeks.

'l"ht- new levy. which was called tn the colors on Feb-

|'ttary 15, and which is to serve for the contemplated great spring campaign in March and April, will receive a trulli- lng of six or seven weeks, anti is expected to oppose the

_creat Russian new army o_t' 2,000,000, ivho are supposed to have trained from the beginning of the war. Sixty per cent ot' these men, who number something like 800.000, were boys fr_oin schools. They arc composed of Slovaks, Rou- inniiiaiis. Itutlienluns, etc., for they, being much inferior in pliysique to the Genniaii and lluiignrian element, contri- bute ti considerable percentage ol' men who were rcjeetetl as unfit tn previous years. These people. 65 por cent of whom are illiterate have to learn military tlrlll. the Gor- man words of command, shooting and all kinds of military exercise within six weeks."

ln a list. of casualties recently published Austrlirs

losses nre placed at 1,300,000; German 1,800,000; Russia

1.500.000 French 1,200,000; Belgian 200,000: Séirlhn 150.000; British 110,000; Montenegrin 20,000. a total of $0,- 280,000. ‘
