R, Marsh of ' Economic World' Tills of Plan to Rush Goods to Market. New York, Sept. 1.?German bankers and manufacturers, despite the fact that the country is surrounded by armed enmies. are taking steps already to re-establish German products in the big markets of the world the moment peace comes. ilbis was the statement made yesterday by A. R. Marsh, editor of the Economic Yv^orld, formerly the Market World, of 80 Wall street. Mr. Marsh j raid that Germany is working out plans to dump $100,000,000 worth of her products in the United States as soon as the blockade.is ended, and thus enable the many to buy raw materials - I witnour exporting guiu. Mr. Marsh, who spent many years in Germany as a student, gathers his information from technical and scientific magazines published in Germany. He said that representatives of German firms were in this country seeking information as to the most salable goods. Calls Germany Clever. "While it is true," said Mr. Marsh,, "that Germany, in handling her financial affairs in a very clever manner, yet what has been happening is that she has 'been turning her stocks of raw commodities into mere credits at the banks or into bank notes. For instance, if the German government buys copper from a dealer, the seller is paid in a bank or in bank notes or in German bonds. In the same way cottrm mPTi who had been laving ud huge amounts of cotton before tf*e- war, have unloaded their cotton and have obtained credits, which can be used in Germany, but not outside the borders of that country. "* A_S__ ^ JJ "JtJut sne win nave certain nmsneu products made from the raw commodities. She will have iron and steel, products ready for sale oustide of Germaniy for whep the iron and steel mills have not been required to work on war orders they have been busy turning out products that are in demand in, the big markets of the world. Next, she has been storing up her .potash. She also will have a vast supply of dvestuffs. though some of the mate-1 rials needed for making of dyestuffs! are being diverted at present to the j making of munitions of war. Still, a considerable amount of dyestuffs wil! have been accumulated when the war ends, Germany also will have toys and other articles that can be made of wood. "The government is backing up the: manufacturers in order to keep all per-1 sons not in the army busily at work, j The reason for this is clear. At the j end of the war Germany must nave.; as I estimate it, about $1,000,000 worth j of raw materials with which to start her industries again. "If Germany can dump suddenly on a great market like that of the Uni.ted States the articles which she has been making during the war, -such as steel and iron products, dyes, etc., a very ]*Tcra. amnnnt of rash wTill be available with which to buy raw materials. "Germany is already busy in that di-1 | rection. It has come to my knowledge j that representatives of German iron | and steel factories are already in this j country. They are visiting large users | of steel and iron. They are asking for I I the SDecifications of eemi-manufactur ed iron and steel products, such as piping, boiler tubes, steel rails and the like. They have canvas-sed many buiyers and have said to them: " 'If you will give us an idea of what you want, we promise you that as soon as peace is declared we will offer you materials at a price that nobody can touch.'" CATTLE TICK COST NINETY MILLIONS | Nearly a Dollar For Every American | Lost Last Year Because of i x tau Washington, Sept. 2.?The cattle tick cost the United States approximately $90,000,000 during th;,- past year, according to estimates bj Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the federal bureau of animal industry, today. This includes destruction of the cattle, decreases in value of hides anG !c production of milk, ?tc. Government agents report great I headway in the organized effort to eradicate the tick which has resulted in the Southern fanners devoting more J attention to stock raising, i A circular has just been issued by ; Secretary Houston advising all stock I interests that, the eradication of the tick is essential to the ceveiopnien1 of a sound agricultural system in the j South and that with it out of the way, the South can produce cattle free from many of the handicaps of other sections. TWO 310 IiE BANDITS KILLED Several Troop Tmins Arrive With Reinforcements lor Funston's Army. Brcwnsville, Texas, Sept. 5.?Two Mexican bandits were shot todaiy by American soldiers, who returned the Mexican's fire across the Rio Grande at Cavazos crossing, about 40 miles above here. At the same time the gra, ity of the situation wa = somewhat relieved by the active co-operation of Carranza military authorities, who removed Carranza troops from the river bank at Cavazos crossing. Several troop trains armed here today, the beginning of a movement I which will increase the United States border patrol to 4,000 men. Col. Billiard said today that last night's order cabling all troops at Fort Brown to quarters was issued to have a force quickly available to send to points along the railroad near Browus'. ille, where it had been reported Mexicans were cutting: wires, and railroad bridges were threatened with damage. .The night passed without any incident which necessitated ordering out the troops. The troops which arrived today, the Fourth infantry, will be stationed at Foi;t Brown here, the 26th infantry moving to Harlingen, 25 milesl north of this city and within quick reach of oil Vi a OrAft i-vl T cm i xi ^ uicvu; ucu ux ca. lcu^/ci i x^. Eullard, in command -of the 'border patrol, has established his headquarters at Harlingen, iCol. A. P. Blocksom taking command of the troops here. Major Hay Arrives. Major William Haiy, chief of staff of the department of the South, also arrived today. One Carranza officer and a civilian are known to have been killed in yesterday's fighting at Cavazos crossing. At least a dozen oiher Mexicans were seen to fall during the fighting and were believed to have been killed or wounded. Only one (.American soldier was wounded. His injuries are not serious Today's engagement was brief, the Mexicans, believed to have been part of a band which last week looted several stores near (Mission, Texas, retiring after two of their number were wounded. The Mexicans opened the fight by firing on an American so-dier stationed in a tree to observe movements on the Mexican side of the Rio Grar;r?e. None of the tAmericanc was i wounded. Earlier in the day a detachment of Mexican troops assembled at the rivtr crossing, but they were withdrawn when Col. <BullaM reported their presence to the Carranza consul here. . .Lieutenant vs. Donkey.
