SHAKESPEARE STILL FIRM
IN GERM ANS AFFECTION

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 4.-Even the
furious hatred against England which
has been a marked German character
istic during the war has been unable
To unseat Shakespeare in the affection
If the Teutonic race. There has been
a struggle, and Shakespeare has won,
the Germans taking the attitude that
he belongs to them almost as fully as
70 the twentieth century British.

Restrained From Selling
Mrs. Longstreet's Home
Especial to Times-Recorder.)


ATHENS, Ga, Nov. 4.-The United
States court here this afternoon issued
an order restraining the Southern
States Insurance Company and E. A.
Spencer, sheriff of Hall county, from
selling the home place on Green street
in Gainesville, of Mrs. Helen D. Long
street, widow of the former Confed-
crate general. Mrs. Longstreet, now a
resident of New Jersey some time
ago fled a petition in bankruptcy and
the property, it is urged, should be
handled by the trustees. The place is
valued at $4,000, the claim of the
insurance company is $2,75O. The
hearing on permanent injunction will
be Nov. 81.

In reply to Max Reinhardt's inquiry
among authorities as to whether
Shakespeare should continue to be
performed in the Reinhardt Theatre,
MAMMALIAN Harden replies:
''If only all stage questions were as
simple as this! OF course, Shakespeare
must be played now and in the future.
We can in no way dissolve the ties
which bind us to one of the chief an
cestors of our German culture"
The Germans have long boosted that
Shakespeare is performed more often
in Germany than in England and AM
erica together; indeed, some of them
say there are more performances of
the Bard of Avon's work in the Ger
man language in single week than
the English and Americans see an
nually.

tiers and the remainder Of the regi-
ment in camp there. This is the first
troop movement that has been order
ed since the embargo on arms and
ammunition has been lifted. The

morning and made the trip overland
carrying all of their camp baggage
tentage and wagon train with them
The squadron will go into camp al
Columbus to prepare for the tactical
inspection Of the second cavalry
brigade, which is to be held at Fort
Huachuca some time in October.
Officers Of the United States army
stationed at Columbus are watching
the trend of events in the European
war with consuming interest. How
ever, they cor olain Of the paucity
of information to be CLEANED from
the news dispatches, which are. in
turn, based upon information given
out by the military departments of
the several nations involved.
Excellent maps of the countries in
volved in the war have been received
at the headquarters Of the Sec
ond cavalry brigade and an attempt
is being made to follow the fortunes
of the several armies.
1t is the hope of the officers that
the censorship will not be so rigidly
enforced, after a time, in order that
they may follow the trend Of the bat
tie lines and gain useful information
in their chosen profession.

While present conditions in the
copper market are unsatisfactory be-
cause Of the European war. il is en-
couraging to note that men who are
recognized as authorities ON the SUBJ
ject see good times ahead. The war
has stopped manufacturing in some
Of the greatest copper consuming
coutries Of the world. and soon the
demand for this product will be felt.
Other experts who have studied
conditions in Europe say the war will
not last any great length Of time. So
while conditions with many are rath-
er unfavorable now it is encouraging
to note that prospects for unusual
prosperity are not far ahead. An
Eastern manufacturer says Of the
copper business:
"The manufacturers Of finished
copper goods, brass, electrical, ETC..
are now confronting the greatest OPP
portunity in their history, and one
that is not likely TO be reproduced in
our time. When one considers that
Germany, the center of electrical
supplies manufacturing in Europe.
is out Of the running and the other
countries as well, one realizes what
an opportunity for worlds trade con-
quests lies open to Americans. Ger
many's enormous export business TO
South America, South Africa, China,
Australia, and in fact. all the outside
civilized countries, has stopped and
the United States is the only country
in the world with facilities and capt.
tai to take II over.
"Of course. it will take time for
the present American manufacturing
to increase their facilities
to take care of the new trade, and
financing and new credits must be

worked out here as they can be no.
where else at this time. Our bankers
are working away at the financial
end, and | believe the big manufac-
turing companies are fully alive to
heir opportunity. A great deal of
new capital will be required, and that
will perhaps mean high money rates;
but what concern would not be will
my to pay 8 per cent or even 10 per
cent interest for the opportunity to
earn so per cent or 100 per cent on

j. s. HAS PLAN TO
STOP BORDER FIRING
Arrangements Completed at
abinet Meeting and Details
viii Be Announced Later.

a definite plan Of action TO stop Mex
lean bullets from flying across the
border at Naco. Ariz., was decided upon
by the Administration at today's Cab
met meeting.
As result of the decision. Secre-
tary Of War GARRISON this afternoon
will make an important announcement
concerning the situation at Naco.
The greatest secrecy is being OBJ
served to safeguard the character of
known to have been based, however,
upon a lengthy dispatch received from
Mexico by Secretary Bryan just before
he Cabinet convened. 1t is believed
to have contained information regard
ing the attitude of all Mexican Officials
to whom the United States has COM
municated its intention OF returning the
NaSican fire at Naco.
Although Carranza had previously in
formed this Government OF orders Is
sued by him to General Maytorena to
cease firing across the American border
the tone of his message was defiant in
insisting that the United States would
be commit ting a host lie act against
Mexico of the fire was returned.
CarranZa, il is understood, has a sup
pleme tai dispatch in which 1t is said
e further emphasizes his disapproval Of
sny steps which the troops of General
Bliss at Naco might be instructed to
takc to p7even' further casualties on
the American side
There were no casualty reports from
Naco. Neither were there any reports
of further executions of political
prisoners at Mexico City.
The State Department was unsuc-
cessful in its attempts to learn more
details of the murder Of the two
Americans in the state of Sonora
The department is awaiting particu-
