petroleum sprinkled about. An inexpen-
siye preventive measure is the liberal use
OF salt scattered about the breeding
places and then wet down. Semi weekly
thorough MEETINGS with water have been
found to keep fieas out of poultry runs
| in Texas and salt water from the gulf ID
used extensively for this purpose along
the coast.
Where it is supposed that dogs or cats
are largely responsible for the infesta-
tion it is desirable to compel them to
sleep in definite place in order that the
eggs from the heas be concentrated and
thus more easily destroyed. A few gun
| ny sacks or a mat for infested animals
to sleep upon will be found to contain a
great majority of the eggs and these
can be destroyed by shaking the cloths.
Where heas are found to be breeding
in the house itself the first step is to
sweep up all the dust and burn it. Floor
coverings should be removed, aired and
beaten and the floor scrubbed with strong
soapsuds. Various insecticides have
also been found to be effective, but many
OF these are either dangerous % health
or injurious to various articles.
Fumigation with sulphur fumes or hy-
drocyanic acid gas has also been en-
ployed to rid dwellings of feas. Both of
these have the additional advantage Of
killing rats and mice as well. as tieas,
but sulphur is open to the objection that
il eorrodes metal and Injuries plants. Hy-
drocyanic acid gas is so deadly that its
use except under expert direction is quite
out of the question. In fumgiating with
sulphur four pounds TO each 1000 cubic
feet of space should be used. The sui
phur is piled up cone-shaped in a pan,
which is placed in a larger pan or tub
of water to avoid fire from the heat gem

of the cone Of sulphur. a little alcohol
poured into IL, and match applied. The
room TO be fumigated should be tightly
closed beforehand and kept closed from
10 TO IL hours At the end of that time
the doors and windows should be opened
from the outside and the room thorough
" aired before il is entered.
Various methods of trapping ieas have
been tried at one time or another but
none Of these appear TO be of as much
practical value as the methods already

the same influences were at work "else
where"
In response to query Wednesday, Mr.
Gompers dictated the following state
ment:
Eyes, | have read the expose in the
New York World OF Sunday and Monday
and while am interested in the first in.
stallment, am particularly interested in
the second, because it deals with the sit
uation to which it was necessary for nue.
to refer few weeks ago.
IF the inquiry were directed to what
!, / pointed out, that is, insofar as the eff
forts to corruptly induce labor men to
call strikes among longshoremen and sea-
men, it would be fruitful Of results. For
several months, at times | could scarcely
avoid having people try to come in con
tact with me upon the scheme to call
strikes which would affect the situation
regarding the handling OF products in
tended for European countries. In my
opinion, a dilegent inquiry should be
made into this entire matter.
Without regard of any sympathy for
the one or the other side involved in the
war, had it not been for the honesty of
the men at the head of some OF these or.
CARNATIONS primarily in interest, there
would have been great strikes inaugural
ed at the instance of the agents of for.
eign governments.
All my life | have tried and will con.
tinue to try to secure the very best pos
sible conditions of wages and hours for
the workers of our country. If these
cannot be accomplished without strikes,
/ have no hesitancy in encouraging
strikes for their attainment, but such
strikes will have to be undertaken for
these specific direct purposes and not for
any Interior or improper purposes, par
ticularly when undertaken by corrupt or
other means in the interests Of one ma.
ton against the interests OF another.
Ours is an American labor movement,
and will be conducted by the rank and
fle and the officers of the American labor
Mr.. Gompers' attention was called to
the fact that his statement seemed to |
advise an investigation into efforts to |
corrupt labor leaders, and he was asked |
II such an investigation was be-
run, he would supply the Investigators
With the names of the persons who had |
sought to influence him. He smiled at
he question, but said he would add moth.

OFFERED BRIDES
TO CALL STRIKES
Gonpers Says Agents of Foreign Powers
Were Busy in Labor
Circles,

Washington, Aug 20.-Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American Federation
OF Labor, confirmed in sweeping language
Wednesday the published reports Of far
reaching efforts by foreign influences tc
stir up labor troubles in this country
that would impede the shipment OF sup
plies to the allies. In the statement Mr..
Gompers did not mention Germany or
Austria by name, but the inference was
plain that only those powers, and per-
haps Turkey, would be interested in pre-
venting the export of arms by the United
States.
Mr.. Gompers lays stress on the efforts
OF the agents Of foreign governments to
bride labor men and in other ways pro-
cure strikes of longshoremen and seamen
to prevent the departure of supplies for
European ports. An inquiry directed into
the efforts corruptly to induce labor men
to call strikes among the longshoremen
and seamen, said Mr.. Gompers, would
prove fruitful. At intervals during sew
eral months, he said, he could scarcely
avoid persons who wanted to call upon
him to force strikes for the purpose of
affecting the European situation.
Some comment was occasioned by Mr..
Gompers' direct reference to efforts to in
fuence strikes affecting shipping and his
failure to mention similar efforts among
workers in munition factories. In a
statement issued July p, Mr.. Gompers
said he had authentic information. as to
the efforts to corrupt longshoremen and
seamen, adding that he did not doubt

Strange Shooting Of Aged
New Hampshire Toy
Maker
WAS THE ACT OF
OLD MANS SON
Morrison Peaslee Is Said to
Have Confessed Henri
ker, N. H., Murder

| Concord, N. H., Aug. 20.-The mys
terry attaching to the murder of Howard
w. Peaslee, the aged Henniker toymaker
by shooting as he sat reading in his shop
on the night Of May %, 1914, has been
cleared up by the confession OF Morrison
| Poaslee, who has admitted his crime
and is now under arrest in Portland, Me
County Solicitor Murchie went to
Portland yesterday morning, and with
the aid of detective who has been
working on the case since the commits
sion of the crime, secured the confession.
Sheriff Smith will start for Portland
lat once to bring Morrison back to Con-
cord.
Suspicion has been directed to the son
in various ways since Eugene Wood was
arrested for the crime the day follow
ing the shooting. Wood was held in the
county jail here until the sitting Of the
grand jury in October last, which refused
to indict him, and he was liberated.
A detective has been watching young
Peaslee at Portland for several months.
Peaslee is the eldest son of the wealthy
manufactures who was shot on the night
OF May p, 1914.
The senior Peaslee was killed, it was
supposed, by shot fired through the
window OF little building in which he
used to sleep, and which was located
across the road from his house, which
was occupied by Morrison Peaslee and his
wife and children. Mrs. Howard Peaslee
was away, acting as nurse for an in
valid.
On May "a, two days after the muir
der, state officials caused the arrest OF
Eugene A. Wood Of Henniker, who was
held at hearing at Bradford on May rs,
and remained in Jail until October. when
Inc grand jury refused to indict him.
When a settlement of the Peaslee es
tate was made, Morrison carried on the |
toy business which his father had estab |
ished, and some time ago opened branch |
office at Portland. While in Maine he
was constantly watched by the detective
whom Solicitor Murchie employed.

garian House of Magnates, hold the oppo-
site view, however, and insist that the
present time is inopportune, and that ef-
forts to bring about a tariff reform now
are premature. This branch is steadfast-
ly opposed by those who maintain that
all the three countries at the present
time need every advantage that can be
derived from lower tariffs.
Austria, because OF it half.industrial.
lf-agricultural nature, has always
stood midway between Germany and
Hungary, with general slight leaning
for the former. Such industries as she
has are in the main in good condition
and unlikely TO be injured by lowering
OF tariff walls that would permit Of
German industrial invasion.
The benefits in the past from the Gus
toms union that has existed since 1884.
even though through 1t individuals went
down, are sufficiently marked to induce
Austrians to favor on the whole still
closer relation of this sort. Hungary is
and always has been poor eapitalistical
", so that she has ranged on the side OF
the opposition.

FUTURE INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS.
Momentous Question That Concerns Ger

Berlin, Aug. 20.-Few questions raised
by the war are more momentous to Ger
many, Austria and Hungary than the flu
ture industrial relations among these
three nations.
For close to a century, or ever since
Prussia as On independent state of Ger
many took the initiative, the problem of
customs duties among them has been a
mooted question on which all have sell
dom agreed and on which they do not
agree to-day.

ent states of Germany. Austria and Hun

forcibly, and union was introduced that

The varied developments of the three
nations during the course of years, how
ever. brought constant disagreements as
TO what the tariff conditions should be-

circles must be settled during the present
war il at all.
Hungary at one time or another has
been persistent contender for a high
protective tariff against the invasion OF

consequence OF which the Hungarian in.
