OF farm machinery is a continued

LOOKING FOR A MARKET HERE
London Company Anxioua to Pur..

That large England manufacturers
are already seeking markets in this
country for various products is in
dicated by letter received yester-
day by r. Torras, local British vice
consul from Hall & Hall, large Lon.
don manufacturers. The letter in
part says:
We enclose herewith a few cards.
and should esteem it a favor if you
will send these to any graphite mines
you may know Of, asking them to
quote US their lowest prices for their
product. We will also be glad if you
will distribute few of these cards
to the leading felt manufacturers and
ask them to get into communication
with US. We have been buying large
quantities of these goods from Ger
many and are now desirous of finding
markets in America for same"
While there are no graphite mines
in this immediate section, still there
are other products which will likely
find foreign markets later on.

afternoon placed into active service,
after special meeting held by coun-
Gil, at which the machines were ac-

the men at the department have
learned to drive the machines, and
the others will rapidly learn.
With these machines in commission
the old fire wagons have, of course,
been relega.ad, except the hook and
ladder, which will still be maintained
by the department and which will
be used whenever it is necessary.

Chief Harrison will also keep his

ERADICATION OF
THE CATTLE TICK
C. r. OWENS, STATE CATTLE IN
SPECTOR, TALKS ON WORK
OF HIS DEPARTMENT.

c. T. Owens, of Macon, state cattle
inspector, spent yesterday in the city
and when seen by News reporter
talked interestingly on the work un-
dertaken by the state looking to the
eradication of the cattle tick.
Mr.. Owens has just returned from
Sapelo island where a dipping vat
was installed under his direction for
the use of the cattle raisers on the
island, and tomorrow he will go to
Denton, where another vat is to be
built.
In speaking of the work of his de-
partment Mr.. Owens said that every
effort was being put forth to induce
the farmers of Georgia to engage
more extensively in stock raising, the
main safeguard to the industry being
the eradication Of the cat 1e tick, and
that his services were at the com
mand of any community.
Mr.. Owens was of the opinion that
Glynn county offered a fine field for
the raising of cattle, on account of
the marsh grass, the stockmen on
Sapelo having built number of ST,
los, which they fill with marsh grass
for winter feeding, and on which the
cattle thrive and fatten, a fact that
Mr.. Owens believes should be given
wide publicity.

DEMAND FOR LIBRARY BOOKS.
All Kinds Pertaining to Europe Are
Now Eagerly Sought.

Interest in the European war is re-
fAected in the demand at the public
library for books of all kinds bearing
on every phase of the conflict.
Persons who have forgotten almost
everything they learned about Europe
in school, spend evenings pouring
over Biographies and histories.
With the beginning of fighting in
earnest came the demand for books,
the greatest being for works pertain
ing to Germany. Books on aviation,
especially pertaining to air scouting,
also are eagerly sought, as much in
terest is being shown in this branch
of the military service, which has
developed a new style of warfare.

HELD ON CHARGE
OF EMBEZZLEMENT
L. WEINkLE ARRESTED ON WAR;
RANT SWORN OUT BY
c. r. SMITH.

On technical charge of embez-
Element, l.. Weinkle, who has been
operating the lumber plant of the
Georgia Coast Lumber company
at Thalmann, was FRIDAY arrested in
Savannah by Deputy Sheriff Owens
and brought to this city yesterday,
where the necessary bond was fur
nished and the preliminary hearing
was fixed for Sept. 10.
The warrant was issued at the in
stance of c. f. Smith. of Lumber CITY,
president of the Georgia Coast Lum-
Der company, and is the result of a
business agreement made between
Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Wenkle several
months ago.
1t seems that Weink;e entered an
agreement to operate the mill and
timber lands of the lumber company
on a basis of two-thirds of the pro-
ceeds, that is Wenkle was to have
two-thirds Of the proceeds, while one
third was to have gone to the com
pany. Mr.. Smith claims that ap-
proximately $4,000 was taken in by
Mr.. Weinkle, of which he should have
received $4,000, but that not cent
was paid him. A few months ago
the sawmill, as well as all of the Ium-
Der on hand, was destroyed by fire,
after which Weinkle removed to Sa-
yannah.
Mr.. Weinkle contends that while
$4,000 did come into his hands that
the money was used 10 pay debts Of
the concern, and that II was not prof
it, therefore the division agreed to
could not have been made. Mr.. Smith
on the other hand, claimed that the
agreement made between them pro-
vided that he should receive one-third
of all money received, that Weinkle
failed to pay it over and is therefore
guilty Of embezzIement.
The case, as stated. will come up
for preliminary hearing on Sept. 10.
The plaintiff is represented by Ben
net, Twitty &c Reese, while Judge
Max Isaac represents the defendant
MIR. Weinkle formerly operated a
sawmill at Bladen, removing from
there to Valdosta and returning to
Thalmann, going from there to Sa-
vannah.

PERTs WATCHING THE
WAR ZONE.
BELGIAN TROOPS RECOVERING
London Prepared to Hear that Paris
Has Fallen as the War Office Says
Capture of Capital viii Only Pro-
long the War.

London, Sept 5.-The English pub
lie, hungry for news of the operations
of the allied armies in the western
theater Of the war, had to content it.
self today with the brief non-commit-
tai official communications issued
from Paris and Bordeaux.
Military experts believe the Ger.
mans are preparing for a grand as
sault upon Paris. This is because the
investment of Paris while the huge
mobile army of the allies Is outside
the city would not appear to be a
logical part of the swift German cam
paign.
News OF the withdrawal of Germun
troops toward the ,Prussian frontier Is
not generally credited here because
with their supreme effort in the west
as "A primary object the Germans are
hardly likely to weaken their forces.
News from northern Belgium indf-
Gates that the Belgian troops are re-
covering from the grueling punish
ment inflicted upon them by the Ger
man invaders and are shifting their
activities.
In some quarters the belief prevails
that the German plans of campaign
may be radically changed by the Aus
trian disasters but in spite Of this
most observers are of the opinion
that Germany must continue her re-
morseIess advance in the west with
out considering the misfortunes OF
her ally.
The Petrograd war office now esti-
mates thot the Russian victorie in
Galicia and the Servian victory at
Jadar have so crippled the forces of
the dual monarchy that only ten Rus
sian army corps are needed to keep
Austria in check. This releases 20
corps for the invasion Of Germany.
If Paris falls the effect will have
been more or less discounted in Lon
don, as the war office has managed
to convey the impression that the
capture of the French capital means
only the prolongation OF the war.
This phase of the situation brought
home to the British public has unques
tionably stimulated recruiting.
There Is no indication that the al
lies in the west intend to assume the
aggressive. On the other hand the
indications are that IL the Germans
capture Paris every effort will be
made to render 1t barren triumph
by leading the Germans from position
to position in series OF rear guard
actions until the invaders are ex-
hausted

Londcn, Sept 5.-The head of the
German army, which has been fore
ing its way through the angle of The
French armies toward Paris, has
made further progress according to
the German official report issued
today and has driven the allies behind
Conde.
The statement says lie Fere has
been captured without resistance,
and with the exception of (name de-
leted), which is now being attacked,
and Maubeuge, which the Germans
nave masked, the outpost forts are
now in the hands of the invaders.
Cavalry raids, too, are being made in
the direction of Paris Notifications.
which will, if the German accounts
are correct, be the next stop of the
allied armies.
Earlier official reports from Paris
were to the effect that the Germans
had suffered a check near Verdun.
1t now appears that in Lorraine and
the Vosges region, where the Ger
man forces were weakened to
strengthen their right flank, the
French are at least holding their own
II not making an advance
The allies take some consolation
from the fact that the Russian ne
feat of the Austrians around Lem
berg, which town has fallen into the
hands of the Russian army with it's
immense stock of war material and
provisions is apparently complete.
The possession of Lemberg gives the
Russians a base from which thev can
work and from which they can attack
in the rear the Austrian army which
has been invading Russian territory.
In a battle lasting almost a fort
night the Austrians have suffered ter
rife losses, 10000 having fallen in
one place alone, while the Russian
general claims to have taken thou
sands of prisoners and 200 guns. The
Austrian retreat, it appears from Of
