During ' the brief period Miss Haxcltine- was in v Toklo, she was the belle of the dlplo : matlo circle and frequently met th count at the various social functions.

Hill of the Great Northern railroad gave ex preelon to a belief which is held by good many European financiers. With the increased cost of modern warfare the power of control exercised by high finance upon governments nowadays is greater than ever before in the world's iiiuwry, ana recent "events would lndi eaie mat it. had almost attained the iiowr oi aDsoiute veto.

Even at moments when fears of war were at the highest point it may have been -remarked that the tone of the New Tork Times' dispatches had been consistently optimistic, and it is no breach of confidence to say that the reason for that was to be found in the Information your correspondent had of the manner in which finance and diplomacy were working together in order to avert a conflict. It was, of course. Impossible to say that there would be no war Just as it Is impossible to predict now that the Balkan snows will melt in the spring, without hostilities but success in the- past leads to the hop of a similar result in the future. Exactly what ways and means are being taken to bring about the desired consummation is a secret which history Financial Experts Disagree, Inauirles made In London and Trl. by a very competent observer some weeks ago. when the perils of the situa tion seemed greatest, led him to the conclusion that the reason of the re markable accumulation of gold in the Bank of France was. In part at least, due to the fact that the French were caning in tneir balances, especially from Berlin. The Casablanca Incident was never a really serious one. but, to a large section of the French in vesting public it seemed so to compli cate the situation that manv nf thn in habitants of non-fortified towns In the neighborhood of the eastern frontier made preparations to abandon tlmlr homes within twenty-four hours. In maters such as this, where It ia im possible to obtain tangible financial data, a fact of this kind is an impor tant, inaex. It must be stated that there is by no means an agreement of authorities on the subjeot. While all are agreed that tne lnnuence or haute rmance" was exerted in favor of peace, there is no consensus or opinion as to any practl cal steps having been taken to make that influence felt in advance of the actual neceslty. While, on one hand, an English bank. ter told me that he believed that mr tain French banks hail called in short. time loans from Germany, on the. other the manager of the London branch nf one or the biggest French credit Inst I. unions said that he was confident that "uuiing oi me eon naa Deen aone. In the latter's view, the accumulation of gold in the Bank of France, which, he poinien out, in tne circumstances could only b a repository for Inflowing r)rt and not a credit collecting agency, was aue id normal causes. Opinions of Other Bankers. Another banker said that to the w of his memory the gold movements at me time or in. Aipeciras conference lent coior to Mr. Hill's assertion; yet another declared that the gold move ments on the continent durlnr the it few months certainly gave no indica tion of such an extraordinary measure as a concerted calling in of the bal ances on tne part or irrance. although it were oulte oosslble that there h.H oeen some instances or this.
