ARTILLERY TRUMP
DECLARES GERMANS
"Growler" Shells Break All Windows

Berlin, Oct. 1O.-"Artillcry is

German officer interviewed by the
Tageblatt. He continues
Our German shells are wonders.
In addition to their destructive eff
feet, the moral effect of their de-
donation is plainly to be observed.
The enemy is not little affected by
the dull. uncanny noise. The show

equal to the heaviest field pieces of
the French, the Rimailho u5.5 cen

fective projectile, except that they
do not always explode.
I'm cur advances we have had op-
portunity to observe on the French
dead and wounded the effect of our
shells, and it was very great. At
the beginning of the war the percus-
sive point of our projectiles is said
to have lain too high. and 1t is In
teresting to note that we first
learned this from letters captured
from the French.
1T must be said that the French
cannoneers shoot extraordinarily

because of their system of firing, in
which they seek out an area In
which they assume the enemy to be
present and simply deluge 1t with
their fire.

peace be restored.
On the whole, as any number OF
persons commented last night, the
Patterson address was a weak effort
and marked decline in that dis
tinguished gentleman wisdom and
his tribute to Mother Jones in which
connection he scored the military au-

The European war bids fair to ac-
uuire as great unpopularity with the
younger generation as already at
tachcs to it among the grown-ups.
Tin top of the news that Germany
may be unable to send us the usual
supply of holiday toys comes the an
nouncement that there is likely to
be shortage of Christmas candies in
many a youngsters stocking. Fate
seems to have worked against Amer
lean boys and girls in number of
ways to bring this about. Sugar. of
course, is the principal ingredient of
candy. Following the reduction of
the tariff and the approach of free
sugar number of American sugar
factories and plantations have gone
cut of business and the crop in this
country is said to be about 100000
tons less than usual. With the out
break of the war England was forced
to find her sugar supply outside OF
Europe and began buying up sugar
that ordinarily is imported into the
United States. with the result that
the price advanced nearly 5 cents a
pound. Not only sugar but also g1u-
cose. condensed milk. preserved fruits
and nuts, all of which are used to
a minor extent in candy making.
have increased in price. In spite ot
the advances already made candy
makers assert that they are losing
money and that further increases
must take place. Should these pre-
dictions be realized. American chill
dren are likely to join in the demand
now arising in many quarters that
we grow all our sugar supply at
home. That this would result in
cheaper sweet meats is as strong an
argument in its favor with the
youthful population as is the pros
rect of cheaper sweetening for the
morning cup of coffee with those OF
more mature years. The import.
i ance of the candy industry is shown
by the fact that nearly $500,OOO, 900
a year is expended for it's product.

A new solution is to be attempted

that they have little respect for the
efforts of various organizations to
provide work for the idle. and so are

side. since, as they maintained at the

some of them have been unemployed

which caused his death
Opinion of Appellate Court.
The appellate court held that the
escape of gas did not constitute a
nuisance as it was not a continuous
act in violation of the rights of the
public. The court also eNonerated the
District from responsibility for negli-
gence in the care and management of
the public schools on the theory that
such care and management is an eX-
ei'cise Of governmental function.
Assistant Corporation Counsel White
ford aided Corporation Counsel Syme in
the argument on appeal The widow
was represented by Attorneys Alex
ander Wolf and Levi H. David.
A new trial was ordered by the ap-
pellate court but in the course of the
opinion the statement is made that
