SAY GERMANS USE
DUMDUM BULLETS
French Officials File Objection
With the Powers.
SAMPLES ARE SUBMITTED.

These Bullets Are Cylindrical and Con-
icaI With Split Ends-Their Hollow
Noses Expand on Impact, Causing
Terrible Wounds-The Hague Con-
ference Forbade Use.
Paris.-Of great interest to military
students is the charge made by the
French government that the Germans
used on n of the first days Of the
war dumdum bullets. The charge was
never substantiated. A sample Of the
bullets found In French dead have
been submitted to the war office.
The dumdum bullet is made with a
hollow nose which causes the metal to
expand on impact, thus creating an
In the town OF Dumdum, In British In
dia.
The bullets were first used in the In
dian frontier fighting by the British
owing to the failure of the usual type
of bullets to stop the rushes of the
fanahcal tribesmen.
At the second Hague conference all
the powers except Great Britain and
the United States agreed to stop the
use of this kind of bullet.
The charge was made, however, by
Italian officers In the war with the
Turks in Tripoli that the enemy was
using the dumdum bullets. From the
condition of the wounded the doctors
declared that such was the case. The
powers were notified and promised to
draw the attention of the Ottoman
government to the violation.
Later, in the Balkan war, the Turks
got a dose OF their own medicine from
the Montenegrins. On Oct 81, 1912,
the Turks said that the foe was using
the prescribed bullets at Tuszi and
Berama. Again the powers made rep
resentation to the Montenegrins.
Accusations were made In the Boer
war that the British were using the
dumdums. This was never proved.
In the Russia-Japan war the Japs
first accused the Russians of using
dumdums, and some were said TO have
been found at Liaoyang. The Russian
officers denied that the bullets came
from their side when the powers took
up the matter. Later In the campaign
General Linevitch asserted that the
Japanese were using dumdums, and
the usual denials to the powers fol-
lowed.
