PrisOn-Masle Dolls.

WASHINGTON, June 7-Consul Stephan.
at Annanberg. Germany, writes the State
Department that it is reported that the
manufacture OF dolls has been introduced in
the prison for men at Untermaasfeld and is
being worked by J. G.. Reinhenbach of
Grimmenthal. The consul does not know
whether this man exports dolls to the
are sent to this country. The prison-made
dolls, the consul thinks, could be imported
into the United States so much cheaper
than they can be made here that it is ex-
pected that an attempt will be made to send
them here. Mr.. Stephan suggests that
methods be taken to prevent such importa-
tionS. He says the whole question of prison
made goods is being much discussed in the
German press since in the British Parlia-
ment a, desire has been expressed TO exclude
from Importation all German goods of prison
origin. Mr.. stephan expresses the belief
that great many prison-made goods are
sent to England from Germany and to the
United States as we'll.
