It was a grim, bu iness-like procession-even with the picturesque and colorful uniforms of fighters from other lands-that swung down 'the avenue of the allies" and under the banners of the nations arrayed against Germany and her allies. Scores of airplanes, flying in battle formation, preceded marchers from Sevehty-second street, past the "altar of liberty" in 'kdlson Square and to Washington Square. Guns, tanks and other trophies captured from the Germane by American soldiers at Chateau Thierry and other battlefields were towed by military tractors. The United States division was cornposed of 10,000,oldiers, who have'completed-the#e preliminar' training and soon will sail overseas for France, and 8,600 sailors. The Americas troops sang as they marched. The total number of all troops in line was estimated at 25,000. P resident.Wilson and Mrb. Wilson wl attdend the liberty day concert at the Metropolitan opera house tonight for the benefit of Queen Marghe:-,ta's fund for blinded soldiers of Italy. PNEUMONIA TAKES HEAVYTOLL HERE During the past week pneumonia -and influenza exacted a heavy penalty from Nashville, the death total running up to 183 for the week ending Saturday at noon. Acording to available figures the death list for the week is heavier than it has been in many, many years, and possibly the largest in the history of the city with the exception oft he period when the cholera epidemic swept the city. The report of Dr. W. E. Hibbett, city health officer, shows that of the number of deaths, 136 were white and 47 colored. The births for the week were only 28, of this number 17 were white and 11 colored. HOLD FUNERAL FOR LATE MIKE J LYNAM Funeral services over Mike J.

SuAit sAupvot thL e 1b1 ali pleas for united support of the iloan ltai emphatic declarations that peace talk:. [shuld not- cause a slackening f tbscribing, this result and the Utlook for the success of the loan -is distinctly disappointing." ACTUAL FIGURES. Rumors reaching headquarters ildi cating suspicion that actual figures a, being held back drew from the treasury this denial: "Inasmuch as the belief Is prevalent in some quarters that reports on subscriptions are being' withheld in an endeavor to create a 'bear' impression, it seems proper toexplain the manner in which the official figures are obtained and made public, Every afternoon at 3 o'clock (Washington timer the twelve.Federal reserve banks of the country report to the treasury every subscription through incorporatdd banks and trust companies, on which deposits of over 10 per'cent have been paid. These reports are made public absolutely without change. The figures are taken directly from telegrams, sent by the governor of Bach Federal reserve bank, and incorporated into the press statement No atteapt is made to create by those figures either a good or bad impressien'of the manner in which the loan is progressing. The whoje truth of the situation is told by the figures, and they epeak for themselves." The loaqv review added:' "Briefly stated, the situation last night is that $532,000,000 must be subscribed on every remaining seven working days of thelan if the tbtal asked by Secretary McAdoo is to he obtained." Only 17 per cent of the six billion has been raised. S DISTRICT REPORTS. Subscriptions by districts were reported as follows: District. Subscription. Pet.
