PUTEMBARGO
IMPORTED LACE
NOTTINGHAM, England, May 13.
—1rhe United States proposal to put
an embargo on the import of lace has
caused consternation in the lace
trade. If licenses for shipment are
not granted the embargo willohave a
serious effect on the Nottingham lace
trade as one-third of the entire out
put is usually exported to America.
Nottingham exported about $8,500,
000 worth in pre-war times and al
though there ;was a marked falling
off last year, the figure was $4,500,
000.
A leading manufacturer said the
effect of the prohibition will be tre
mendous. He was inclined to think
the American government regarded
lace as a luxury and intended to stop
its import during the war. The Secre
tary of the Federation of Lace and
Embroidery employers said the out
look was ominous as scores of orders
had been placed for autumn delivery
and thousands of pounds alreadv
paid for travelers’ salaries and agents
expenses would be a dead loss. Ware
houses opened in America would be
deprived of a living while a consider
able number of lace-makers here
would be thrown out of work.
The American consul, C. M. Hitch,
has had a busy time answering eme
ries and giving out what infromation
he has on the subject. He said the
Nottingham trade would be gravely
involved through the embargo, but in
the absence of any other official in
formation he was unable to offer anj
hope of a modification of the ordei

SWINDLERS PLAY UPON
RELATIVES OF SOLDIERS
SEATTLE, May 14.—So many com
plaints have been made of a new
method of swindling, made possible
by the war, that CoL R H. Denman
stationed here, has issued a bulletin
of warning. The practice, according
to the bulletin, is for the swindler tc
send a telegram to the relative of a
soldier at a cantonment, over the
soldier’s name, saying that the lattei
has been granted a furlough ane
asking that funds for transportatioi
be mailed to some point, care of the
general delivery. The swindler h
thus enabled to obtain the monej

NOTICE.
--
United States of America, Territory of
Alaska, ss. to A. P. Stowe:
You are hereby notified that we
have expended during the year 1916
threa hundred dollars in labor and im
provements upon the “Big 4,” "Mof
fett'’ and “Crow’s Nest” lode mining
claims, known as the Big Pour group,
which are contiguous and in one
group, situate on right limit of Chitti
stone river, about eight miles from the
mouth thereof, in Nizina mining dis
trict, Chitina recording precinct, Al
aska, the location certificates of which
are found of record in book 9, pages
142, 143 and 144 in the office of the
recorder of Chitina recording precinct,
at McCarthy, Alaska, in order to hold
said elaims under the provisions ot
section 2324 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States, and the amend
ments thereto, approved January 22nd,
1880, concerning annual labor upon
mining claims, being the amount re
quired to hold said lodes for the period
ending on the 31st day of Dec. 1916.
And if within ninety days from the
personal service of this notice, or
within ninety days after the publica
tion thereof, you fail or refuse to con
tribute your proportion of such ex
penditure as a co-owner, which
amounts to seventy-five dollars, your
Interest in said claims will become
the property of the subscribers, your
co-owners, who have made the requir
ed expenditures, by the terms of said
section.

BIRMINGHAM. England, May 14.—
One factory making small arms here
for the British fighting men has a
capacity approachng a million rifles
and 500,000 machine guns yearly. It
employs 10,000 men, women and toys.
Many of its arrangements for the
welfare of the workers are attributed
to the fact that the managing direc
tor of this firm is an American, Percy
Martin of Columbus, Ohio.
The factory has a canteen where
five thousand dinners are served
daily to the men and women workers.
The whole upper floor of one vast
building is taken up by this depart
ment and here the men obtain meals
of meat and vegetables for eighteen
cents, a remarkable figure when the
present prices in England are taken
into consideration, while for another
three cents pudding or fruit may be
obtained. The women, girls or boys,
who are served in separate dining
rooms are charged but twelve cents
for the same meal. The health of
the workers is one of the first con
siderations.
