DECLARES STRIKE
NSTIGATOR WAS
DOUBLE-CROSSED
Teutonic Agent Spent Hun
dreds of Dollars to
1ncite Riots
BN Associatca Prses

New York, Dec. 7.-United States
Attorney II. Snowden Marshall de-
clared to-day that Franz Won Rintelen
the German agent. who is accused of
coming to this country to incite the
strikers in munition factories, armed
with large corruption fund, was
'double-crossed" by the labor men he
tried TO corrupt and, despite the ex-
penditure of several hundred thousand
dollars, failed to accomplish his mis-
sion In any effective manner.
Mr.. Marshall gave the major credit
for Rintelen's failure to the stand
taken by high officials in labor organ
iZations.
"Rintelen only succeeded in cor
rupting some subordinates," Mr.. Mar
shall said, "and he was beautifully
double crossed. The real labor lead
efs TOOK prompt steps to check his
activities. Save for a few small
strikes, none of his efforts was sue
cessful and all the strikes he did insti-
gate were quickly killed by the good
men a tine head of the unions. I am
not prepared to state just how much
money Rintelen expended, but it ran
into hundreds of thousands of dollars.
He had 100000 to his credit in one
bank"
Mr.. Marshall refused to comment on
David Lamar's activities in the scheme
beyond saying emphatically that he
would not be called as a witness be-
fore the grand jury, a proceeding
which might give him immunity from
prosecution.
If sufficient evidence is obtained
1t is expected indictments will be
sought against the labor men who
accepted Rintelen's money. Mr., Mar
shall stated that these men could be
prosecuted under the Sherman law on
the ground that they had conspired to
restrain the trade of the United States
in munitions. Rintelen is at present

BUILDINGS FOR LIVE STOCK
Proper Ventilation 10 often Neglected
and Animals Suffer In Consequences
Let In Sunlight.

Stock barns should be thoroughly
ventilated, whether for hogs. cattle.
horses or sheep. II is Just as detri-
mental to an animal to breathe i'm
pure air as II is for q human being.
A system of ventilation is inexpen-
sive and It's results are remarkable.
The buildings should be kept clean
and disinfected often enough to insure
destruction Of poisonous germs.
Floors in hog pens. cattle barns. etc.
should not be made OF boards, for
such floors are full Of cracks and
knot holes, which, with the space IN
derneath them. afford a favorable
place for the accumulation Of fetid
matter.
II hogs have cholera in a board
floor pen. and the floor and the &C.
emulation is not taken out and the
building thoroughly disinfected, hogs
placed in the same pen years after

ease from latent germs In the filth.
Sunshine being the best disinfectant,
