MADE IN GERMANY , HYMYS ARE BARRED

(Correspondence ofsAssociated Press. ).
 London Oct 27.-To enable the British clergy to recognize made-in-. Germany hymns, a list of them has been prepared by the Guardian, a church newspaper, which has opened its columns to a discussion of the propriety Of using these hymns in the English service.s
 English hynna1 would be deprived of some of its oldest and most popular numbers. Luther's famous version of the, 18th psalm, ..A Sure Stronghold our God is. He,'' would be perhaps the most regretted of all excisions Other familiar numbers of German or igin are, Hark, the Herald Angels Sing ssSun of My Soul, My Savi our Dear;' Christ Whose Glory Fills the Skies;' As With Gladness Men of OId;,' Christ the Lord is Risen Again" we Plough the Fields and Scatter Hail to the Lords Annoint- ed;'' 70 Happy Land of PiIgrfms,' 9 and Commit Thou All Try sWays.''-
 Lutheran hymns are popular mot only in the Wesleyan Methodist church which is allie9 tc sLutherism but also in the Church of England, which regards itself as g. part of the ancient Catholic church and not a part of the reformation.
 Since the Wagner nights excite as much enthusiasm as ever in the Queens Hall concerts, it is not be- Heved that the agitation against Ger man hymns will find a strong follow ing.

VALUE
 OF SIEGE KRUPPS

5(CoFrespondence of Asso cfated Press0 London Oct 27.-AIthough the big guns used by the Germans have been the surprise of the war and are tac- credited with having caused the Tall of Iiege, Namur and Antwerp, some military experts in England question the wisdom of carrying such weapons into the field, regarding them as a. burden which an army cannot afford to transport.
 Colonel F. N. Maude, discussing the heavy guns, say in the Standard:
 s'It would be interesting to obtain the exact facts and calculate what the policy of taking the 42-centimeter and 28-centimeter howitzers into the field really cost the Germans in loss of transport power for the food of the troops I am willing to grant that the 42-centimeter weapon was admir- ably adapted for its purpose of de- stFoying steel and concrete targets presented by the forts or 1iege and Nanur. But seeing that. the weight of one of the shells is nearly equal to the weig gI1t of a. whole square meal for one Of their ba,ttalions, would not the available horsepower. whether me chanicaI or actual, have been far bet ter employed in hauling food for men to the front in the first instance % Military experts writing for the English press say that big guns are not really a novelty. The new feature IS Ih61E general use III the recent paigns. Heavy guns were tried in the F,ranco-Prussian war over much the same territory where recent fight ing has taken place, but their move ment was found too much of a bur den.-s
 England has constructed a.. more formidable weapon than the German howitzer. It is Mallet's mortar, which was built for use in the Crimea War, but not completed ins time to go into the siege. The mortar is now at Woolich arsenal. It was built in sec tions for transport and has thirty six inch bore and g. bursting power charge of $50 pounds of gunpowder It was tested at Plunsted marshes and shell sent with a full powder charge penetrated Is feet and blew out a crater sixty feet in diameter Assistant United States Treasurer Charles Strecker. at Boston, received $5, GOO, 900 in gold from the mint at Philadelphia by parcel post.

 (Correspondence of Associated Presss1
 London, Oct. 27.--Although the Elm press Eugenfe is almost 34 years old, she is taking the. greatest interest in the war. and has set aside an entire wing of her house at Earn borough Hill, for the use of wounded officers.
 Several injured officers are now re euperating there and their aged host ess personally supervises their care Her estate is near the great camp at Aldershot which King George and Queen Mary visit frequently. Practi- cally all of Empress Eugenie's men servants have joined the army in France. Nevertheless she entertains many of the distinguished military men who visit Aldershot, apo1ogizing for her plain fare and explaining that her cooks have more important work than preparing food for an aged enn- press and her guests.

Contestants Expected to File Bill
of Exceptions if Court
Sustains Finding.

The win Of the late Joshua p. Craw
ford. which has been the center of a
bitter legal battle between his wido~,
Mrs. Mary Belle Crawford and n
score or more Neirs-at-law. was sus
tanned in the report Of Auditor James
l.. Anderson. handed down SATURDAY
afternoon. The will leaves the es-
tate, valued at more than s25O,OOO %
Mrs. Crawford. The ruling Of Audi
tor Anderson Is considered a vindi-
cation of Mrs Crawford of the
charges brought by the heirs-at-law
that Mr.. Crawford was q unsound
mind and that she unduly influenced
him.
The report of Mr.. Anderson goes to
the judge Of the Superior Court for
confirmation, and If it is approved
will mark the end Of the famous case.
1t is probable that bill of exceptions
will be filed by the heirs, and re-
hearing asked.
The report declares that the volume
Of evidence shows that ,Ir. Crawford
was Of sound mind when he married
Mrs. Crawford, and fully capable CT
contracting a marriage.
1t declares that the evidence does
not show that he was ever a drunk
ard, as was charged by the contesting
heirs, nor does it show that he was
drunk at the time Of tfI wedding The
report further states that the mar
riage was performed by lawful min
lister, and states that Mrs. Crawford
did not unlawfully induce Mr.. Craw-
ford to enter into the marriage.
The report states also that the con-
tention of the heirs that Mrs. Craw-
ford had another husband at the time
of her marriage to Mr.. Crawford was
not proven. 1t declares that inasmucn
as she had heard nothing of her for
