Exports from South America an nually exceed the imports in value by $200,000,000. Exports to the amount of 100,000,000 go to Europe, while In the past only I2S.000.000 worth of South American goods come to this country. To secure the good will and the trade of the South Americans we must begin to provide markets' for a considerable part of the 1700, 000,000 of products at present barred from Europe. We must provide ships Ninety per cent of the imports of our southern neighbors Is carried In the United States congress Is taking steps now to help provide the ships- The golden promise of this rich field of trade is arousing every com mercial center in America. Chambers of commerce are discussing ways and means of reaching it. Necess ity In time, no doubt, would lead each manufacturing community or brunch of industry to blaze Its own road. How much better would be an organized advance! Why should not the tradesman of America learn something from the militaries of Eu rope? Let them moblllxe for nils march on the frontiers of new trade. Detached battalions ' of commerce would be easily defeated. On the other hun.i, a well planned campaign of eaceful Invasion would bring valu able and lusting results. The way to assure victory Is to link together the activities of cham Ihts of commerce and allied organi zations throughout the United States. Following out the military line of thought, a sort of general staff should be organized from among the best equipped lenders In various lines of Industry. Other captains of com merce anil finance, acting as division t.nd corps commanders, should oper ate under the direction of the gen t rul staff. The first step is to mobilize the commercial army of the United .ttcs. The time to mobilize is now. Chicago News. APPOINTMENTS Ol-' IDSTMASTERS MAOK WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.

In this zone, about 100 miles wide, the ellpse was visible In Its totality lor about four minutes. Many governments went to large expense to fit out expeditions to ob serve the eclipse In the zone entirely but the United States, feeling that the eclipse has no great scientific Im portance and that It will be fully ob served by the Swedish and Russian astronomers, made no such provi sion. It had been planned by private enterprise some time ago to send an expedition to observe the eclipse In Persia but this was abandoned when It was learned that It would neces sitate the invasion extremely wild and remote country Inhabited by tribes men who might make astronomers targets for spear hurling. When it was considered that all of the obser vations must be made in four minutes and that the slightest hitch on a (loud would spoil them, alj thoughts of an expedition were forgotten. Many scientists who wished to ob serve the phenomenon despite the war went to Riga and Kief, Russia, which were both directly in the path of the totul eclipse. "Pgyond assist ing in the astronomy of the moon's position from Its observed contacts with the sun, the practical results ofjwe were Jammed against each other, j a solar eclipse nave neen so iully covered by previous expeditions that no Important new results are antici pated from today's obseratlonss." said ' ' . !

No Important eclipses are scheduled to lake place before that time. SKKS FIRING AT AVIATOR. Woman Rcfugt-o TolU of Air lil't in Belgium. NEW YORK, Aug. 20. Mrs. M. E. Harris West of Montgomery, Ala., a passenger on the Nleuw Amster dam, which arrived from Rotterdam last night, told of having witnessed a fight in the air near Ellen, Belgi um. The party of which Mrs. West was a member left Berlin two days after war das declared, proceeding Into Belgium on a troop train. Her story of the fight follows: "On reaching Sulten on the frontier we were startled at the sound of fir ing. Our attention was attracted aloft, where we saw several aero planes circling about. "The soldiers told us that several of the aeroplanes were French and that their pilots probably were on a reconnoiterlng expedition. Several German aeroplanes also were In the air and shots were exchanged between them and the Frenchmen. 'The train halted so suddenly that I The soldiers hastily disembarked and trained their guns in the direction of the Frenchmen.

Aug. 21. "Military in mode and tone," is the dictum of Cleveland manufacturers for fall and winter styles in ladies' cloaks and suits. No longer will mi lady appear in the sheer blousy waist and peg top skirt. Present styles in coats and Jackets are doomed, for war mad Paris has decreed that la dles wear must be military. Skirts will be plain, and only straight lines will be'tolerated. Jack ets and coats will also be plain and button close about the throat. Low or "V" necked waists too, will be re placed by stiff military collars and cuffs to match. Milady" ' walk and carriage must conform strictly with her new mode In dress. A long straight step and stiff carriage of the body will be the only mode approach ing good form. Meanwhile buyers and other people who lay down the law of dress are marooned in Paris becoming fully Imbued with the mil itary spirit. They will be back soon with their trunks of samples. With them will come the military." Dry Weather Hurts Apple.. K1ESLING. Wash., Aug. 21. The local branch of the Spokane Fruit Growers' company last evening dis cussed marketing conditions.

That Chi na will split into two separate coun tries Is the growing conviction here among men in close touch with the republic's nolitics. That there I about to be a successful revolution In the provinces south of the Yang- tse, these Judges of the situation de clared was certain. The revolution ary movement was said to be prac tically unanimous and even though President Yuan Shi Kal might win a border battle or two, should he try to prevent southern China s seces sions from the north, it was pointed out that It would be hopeless for him to attempt to subdue a errltory half the size of the United States, with a population approaching 200,000,001 solidly united against him. It was agreed, on the other hand, that the north showed no such dis position for popular government as the south and It was admitted that it would be Impossible for the south to beat the north on Its own ground as It would for the north to hold tne south against Its will. The southern leaders proposed a republic with land on something like a single tax basis and the state in control of most great utilities. They plan railroad build ing, the establishment of free schools and as rapid development as possi ble by Chinese of the country's lat ent resources. PRISONERS TO HE BIG PROBLEM Hoii.-ins; and Guardim; or Men Cap tured Will Be Ruse Tak. LONDON. England. Aug. 21. A troublesome problem of war is likely tc be the housing and guarding of prisoners. More than 5000 Germans have been carturei. The Belgians are sending many of these prisoners into France. When the big fisht'.n? with at least j S-.O'lO.ooo men engaged begins, the i number of prisoners prol.ably will run into vast and embarrassing totals i on both sides. There will be exchanges of pris oners but these are not always easy to arrange. Another difficulty' Is ex pected in the matter of the commis sariat for the large armies. The Ger mans are now confronted with this gigantic task. "I" WRESTLING COACH RESIGNS Frank Riley to Retire from Profes sional Athletics. SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 21.
