GREAT MYSTERY
!. OF EUROPEAN WAR
WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON IN
THE NORTH SEA SINCE
POSSIBILITIES

What has been going on in the
North sea? That is the greatest mys-
terry of the war, the problem most diff
ficult to solve. 1t is now over three
weeks since the announcement was
made that the English fleet had left
Portsmouth under sealed orders to
meet the German fleet. The impens-
F, trable veil of the censor, sitting
in London and controlling the enc
my's news as well as his own, was
lifted fer the bare sta .ement. Then
it dropped again and nothing anthem
tic has since been heard of the men
o'war in the North sea. The outside
world cannot pierce tie veil. There
are no correspondents with the war
ships of either Englan or Germany
in the North sea to md back even
| censored dispatches.
OF the fighting on land, the PUBLIC
| heard something. At tie start there
were correspondents i'll Belgium and
every day some news more or less
authentic of the fghtia in Belgium
and in Alsace and LorrG -e has becl
published. But of the naval done II
the North sea, not a word. At INST
! there were stories of a great battle.
| Heavy firing was said to have been
heard at sea eff various British coast
towns. One story said that G3tn!an
| Zeppelin with bombs had destroyed a
British warship every night. But All
OF these reports swere effectiv ely dc
MED. 1t is a fact that the world has
learned nothing from the North seq
since the English and German fleets
put to sea there. Has there been a
| hattie?
1t seems reasonable, if the Germans
had met with actual reverses upon
the sea, that the British censor would
be ready and willing to publish them.
on the other hand, If the Germans
have had successes the London eel :
tsor would hardly be expected to adj
IVertise them, but the fact would
surely have been given out in Berlin
and have reached the world by this
time.
The two fleets now in the North
sea are, in their intricacy of CON

of maritime warfare, which is as Old
as the sea and as old as mankind

BIG INCREASE.

this respect is that it requires three
years after the declaration Is filed,
and sufficient time has not elapsed
yet for the increase to be shown.
Many of the foreigners are rather
reluctant about the matter just at

their fear Of their fellow countrymen

COTTON IN PLACE
OF JUTE BAGGING
ESTIMATED THAT S4o,OOO.OOo
COULD BE SAVED THE
SOUTH ALONE.

Most gratifying advices are being
received from all sections of the cOun
try by the officers Of the recently or
ganized National Cotton Consuming
association, and they confidently pre-
dict that as a result of the campaign
they have instituted for the substitu-
ton Of cotton for jute in the manu-
facture of bagging. that in excess of
million bales of cotton will be taken
off the market and diverted into the
production of a class of goods which
has heretofore been practically en-
tirely made of imported material.
]. F. Ames, of the Selma Manufac-
turing company, has reduced to fig
ures the amount he believes would
necessarily be consumed if the facto-
ries and shippers of the country
would discard the use of jute bags
ton will serve as well as other com
modities in bagging goods to be ship
ped. He declares that over a million
and half bales of cotton would be
consumed in this way.
T@hos. w. Martin. chairman of the
executive committee the associa-
! ton, has received info nation from
many factories and shippers over tho
country that they are or !ering cotton
substituted for jute in the manufac-
ture of the bags in which they ship
their products. Among these is the
| RalstCn Purina Manufacturing Co, of
st. Louis. which is now placing an or
der for an even half million cotton
bags. They have up to this time used
ohter materials in the making of their
bags. This company uses millions Of
bags year and their present order
is only the first of many similar ones
which they will make during the com,
ing year.
Mr. Martin is also in receipt of adj
vices from many cotton mills over the
South that they are in a position to
give instant attention to orders for
bags Many of these mills are also
prepared to print bagging.
| 1t is estimated that When the cot
| ton mills located in the South are at
work manufacturing the containers
and bags which must take the place
Of the jute bags, owing to the adj
vance in the prive of jute incident to
the European war, employment will
be given TO 10000 additional people
from whose employment 10000 people
will reaD the bRnets
The best figures obtainable show
that the vast sum of $60,000,000 is an
nually sent out of the United States
in payment for iute, imported from
Calcutta, India, that goes into the
manufacture of bags. At least $4O,-
10000 of this is paid for by the bust.
ness interests of the South. When
cotton bagging is substituted for jute
in the cases where it can reasonably
be done, it would leave practically
the entire $60,OO0,OOO in the cotton
industry in the United States.

there will be five fourteen-inch
guns pointing ahead and similar
number facing astern. Thus the fire
of all ten guns may be concentrated
at either side or almost directly

fact that she will use only oil for

stack and the boilers can be concen-
trated in the middle Of the ship. The
boilers can thus be given heretofore
unknown security in the form of the
heaviest armor ever employed for
