THE ECONOMIC CRISIS.

CAN THE WAR BE PROSECUTED TO ITS LOGICAL MILITARY

ENDING

The following interesting article appears in the New York Journal of Commerce

war

"A war that is costing Europo at least $50,000,000 day naturally raises the question whether it can ever be prosecuted to what is called its logical military ending. It is impossible to resist the conclusion that peoples and Governments will begin to foul the pressure of other influences compelling peace long before the slow-moving military process has worked itself out. This would seem to be the more probable because the expauso account is based merely on an estinated cost of $2.50 per day for the mamtenance and equipment of each soldier in the field. The war imposes a drain on the national resources, allke of combatants and non-combatants, of which this calculation takes no account. In the extensive region which is the actual scene of hostilities all present production has, of course, ceased, and the acquisi tions of the past have been in great part destroyed. Nentral countries like Switzerland and Italy, that have had to mobs to guard their neutrality, have beer compelled to throw out of work the mass of their labouring population, with the consequent reduction of the ordinary income of familica and the inevitable shrinkage of the normal production of the country. In the territories of the nations actually at why a still more serious dislocation of the mechanism of production has taken place, and the ordinary, sources of wealth creation have been correspondingly shrunk. The material condition of the agricultural sections of Frane and Germany after the war will be pitiable. Hories and cattle will have disappeared grain delds will awake to the summer unsown and the customary fillers of the soil will be among the dead. That in all of this there is the making of an economic crisis is as obvious-as that there must come out of it a steadily growing pressure in the direction of peace.

REVIEWS.

The Crime Doctor.

By E. W. HORNUNG.

Nish..

London:..

The author of "Rafles" gives us here a combination of detective stories and studies in criminology To some people it may become a little irksome to know that every problem the author sate out to create is certain to be unravelled satisfactorily, but, for our own part, we have found the present stories restfully absorbing. There is a thin thread of romance linking the collection together. The doctor, of course, is the hero and the heroine is a titled lady who has been inveigled into militancy and who believes she as murdered a police constable. Her sceret becomes known to two scoundrels, one so-called gentleman and the other the actual murderer, and it is to outwit them that the doctor makes some of his most exciting excursions. It is all excellently conceived, end is worked out with the touch of a master hand:

EARLY MEASURES OF BELIEF must be admitted that some of the wors, fears of the financial havoc which war would play with the money markets of the world have not been realised. At first the outlook was sufficiently black London was threatened with one of the worst panics ever known in the City; a great slump fell on the Stock Exchange with the accompanying paralysis of parental decision and strives honestly to credit; scarcity of gold and a currency situation which threatened to tie up all business transactions in a hopeless, tangle of confusion, The Stock Exchange had to be closed to prevent a further headlong eleverly-drawn character, does her best to drop in prices the joint stock banks either refused altogether to pay out gold for paid it out in relatively infinitesimal quantities; there was a rush to exchange and the author in clever mannor brings out bank notes for sovereigns at the Bank of England, and in the belief that foreign the blighting influence of an unsympathetic supplies might be cut off food was nature and a narrow outlook upon the lives suddenly rushed up to something like of husband and son slike.

A MISLEADING STATEMENT.

GERMAN SHIPPING.

Australasian merchants are now taking up a strong attitude towards the efforts which are being made to conserve German shipping connections during the war. At Merchants' Association held in London the a committee meeting of the Australasian following resolution was passed:--
