 made in the law.
 The convention closed tonight after electing officers and adopting a reso- lution calling upon the Interstate com

BURNSFORFF ISSUES PROTEST AGAINST |DUM-DUM BULLETS

| Washington. October 15.-Count Won
 Bernstorff. German ambassador, today issued the following statement, under
 the heading: Authorized by the inn
 perial government:
 | Tn possession of French soldiers.
 who were made prisoners, particularly
 near Schirmek. Montmedy and Longwy
 numerous steel mantle projectiIes were
 found, the top of which had been bored
 out by machinery to width of five
 and depth of seven millimetres Near
 Fort Longwy a mechanical contrivance
 was discovered serving to alter the
 bullets of finished cartridges in the above fashion. There also were whole cases full of suE cartridges captured.
 It Is therefore beyond doubt that cart
 ridges of this description have been
 dealt out to the troops by the French army authorities.
 Cause Cruel Wounds 'As regards the effect of these hol- low top bullets. commonly known as dumdum bullets. the softer leaden nu-
 cleus will at the impact emerge from the steel mantle and flatten out, thus causing peculiarly cruel wounds and needless suffering. The same is to be said of the mantle which. when torn open. produces heavy decorations in the organic tissues.
 "Other cartridges found upon French prisoners show bullets either provided with strongly protruding edges. caused through insection or nippsd off at the l top or even slit open. Military inves- l tigat tions have established the fact that the men have treated the cartridges as described by order of their officers. Bullets of this kind are liable to cause similar needless wounds as the dum- dun bullets.
 Use Prohibited "The use of all such projectiles Is prohibited by the rules of tnterna- tional law. more especially by article 23 paragraph one, section D of The Hague regulations for war on land and by The Hague declaration of July 29 1899, relating to the prohibition of projectiles which easily expand or fiatten in the human body" The embassy received today a wire- less message from Berlin saying: "The English news that German fn- dustry is at a standstill with no pos sibility of export are lies. The economic life of Germany Is progressing as usual German exports both absolutely and relatively have decreased less than those of England despite the attempts of the enemies to check them. German industries especially textile industries, are working with nearly full pres- sure
