BUYS THREE MORE AIRSHIPS.
British Government Places Order
With German Company.
snnndencc OF The Star


LONDON, November IL, 1915
The news that the British government
has ordered three more "Parseval'' air
ships from the Aerial Machine Company,
at Bitterfeld, Germany. has not occa-
stoned any surprise In Aldershot for it
is recognized that OF all types OF airships
acquired or tried by the Royal Flying
Corps the German dir!gible has proved
the most satisfactory.
1t was learned unofficially in the course
OF inquiries that the German airships are
TO be posted to the naval wing and will
be dispatched to the naval flying stations
on the coast. for which airsh.p sheds are
to be erected al once. The four a,rships
when acquired will be stationed along
the east coast, and the "Astra Torres
on the south coast In the vicinity of
Portsmouth. The "ParSevar' already &C
quired will be stationed on the Midway
near Chatham. This airship astonshed
the authorities by the celebrity with which
she passed her official trials. When COM
pleted at the royal aircraft factory at
Marlborough her engines We're given a
preliminary run and the airship was then
brought out. made an ascent and with
out any further preparation was put
through her official trials for speed en-
durance, steering. hardness and lifting
power. Without further ado she passed
all the tests easily, being officially taken
over the same day by the naval wing OF
the Royal Flying Corps and passed into
commission.

Considerable Damage Done District

Correspondence Of The Star.

VIENNA, November IA, 1918.
Much CONSERVATION has been caused
among the inhabitants Of the wild and
mountainous district of Stubalpe, near
Graz, in the Syrian Alps, by the depre-
datiOns of a number of beasts of prey be-
lieved to have escaped last spring from a
little travelling menagerie. 1t is thought
that the animals, which have been Gre

clude lioness. wolves and hyenas.
Up to the present the brutes have done
some $4,000 worth of damage to poor
farmers, and have attacked 100 cattle
and 400 sheep. Unmistakable traces have
been discovered that the attacks on the
cattle are mostly made by an animal of
the leopard type while tuft of hair
lost, apparently, in brief conflict with
bullock-has been found, and is in
dubitably that of a lion.
The government offered at first a re-
ward of $12J to the successful hunter OF
the beasts, but has since increased the
sum to $50 So far no one has been

various points in the district, which is
some forty-tive miles long by twelve

peasants, townspeople. foresters and
members of the aristocracy have been
undertaking battues almost daily, but
without result.
So great is the alarm occasioned in the
district that schools have been closed in
some villages on this account. while chill
dren residing in the menaced parts of the
country have been ''let off school,"
A police dog was brought to the Syrian
mountains to track the beasts. but it was
soon discovered that the dog, like all
domestic animals, was afraid. Baron
Bronsart de Sihellendorf, an African lion
hunter of considerable experience, has
now. however, made successful expert

dogs to lions, and hopes shortly to track
the mysterious beasts to their lairs.

Herbert Samuel's Observations on

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.
LONDON, November l., 1913.
Herbert Samuel was the guest at the
Imperial Hotel, Russell square. a few
nights ago, of the postmasters of the
United Kingdom.
MIR. Samuel, referring to his recent tour
In Canada and the United States, said
that he was impressed there by the equal
pay of men and women in the post Of
fees. The result of that system was
that to all intents and purposes women
were now excluded from employment In
the post offices OF both those countries.
That was a lesson which he thought
should be taken to heart by those who
lightly advocated what appeared to be u
logical principle that men and women
should be paid in equal wage for what
was assumed to be equal work Many
people in Canada and the United States
informed him that Ii was generally
thought that the British postal service
on the whole was more swift, more re-
liable and generally more efficient serv-
ice than the services on the other side OF
the Atlantic. Further. they declared
that the British telegraph service was
also distinctly more efficient than their
own telegraphs. which were in the hands
of great companies

IDENTIFICATION OF DEAD
IS REDUCED TO SCIENCE
New York Detective Bureau
Has System That But
Rarely Fails.

| NEW YORK. November 24.-Not even
| the grave is hiding place nowadays.
| Under the direction of Detective Com
missioner Dougherty the bureau for
the identification of the unidentified
dead-which is gruesome name-has
reduced us all to common denomina-
tor of card induces and cross references
Broadly speaking" said Sergt. Grant
Williams. who is in charge, the only
body we cannot identify nowadays is
that of a Bowery down-and- out, and
most of them have lost their identity
years before they reach our hands,.
Not one man in 100 has ever been
finger printed or Bertilloned. So those
aids to the police are of little use to
Williams. But he has discovered that
most shoes carry private marks, and
that readymade suits no matter how
cheap have concealed about them ca
balistic numbers through which the
seller can be identified. Williams has
booked the 2.0U0-odd laundry marks
of the greater city, SO that three min
utes after bit of linen has been put
before him he is phoning the laundry
man for the name of the customer
Each jeweler has his private mark
When he repairs q watch he scratches
read without a glass, but Williams
has listed them all. Perhaps 400 un-
known dead come into the morgues
each year. 1t is all a matter of sys-
tenn. Some, one knew most of these
things before. But no one ever both
erred to make workaday instrument
of the knowledge.
Homicide on the Increase.
Condolences rarely prove anything
but sometimes they set folks think
ing. The other day Frederick Hoff-
man in the Spectator discussed the
flourishing industry OF homicide in the
United States. He showed that Man
haitian and the Bronx had registered
neat increase in the number of MUIR
ders per 100000 of population during
the past year.
1T also happens" said a detective,
that the Bronx has taken to sleigh
riding lately. You can hear the bells
up there whenever you put your head
out of the window"
Being interpreted, that means that
the Bronx has become the haunt of
cocaine fends. The ropes" call CO.
caine snow. Hence the derivation of
sleigh riding" and "coasting' and
whatever other fanciful twist you may
care for. Two years ago Chinatown
and parts of Brooklyn were headquar-
tiers for the coke-sniffers. About the
time they began TO drift to the Bronx
the murder rate up there started to
grow.
