Another circumstance which IA now
coming to light is that an elaborate
machinery has been organized by the
enemy for supply Of foodstuffs for the
use OF the German army from overseas.
Under these circumstances il would be
absurd to give any definite pledge that
in cases where the supplies can be
proved 10 be for the use of the enemy
forces they should be given complete
immunity by the simple expedient Of
dspatching them to an agent in a neu-

Dissatisfied with the slowness with
which Mrs Ida Sniffen Walters, the
poisoner of the two children she bore

the effects Of the bichloride OF mercury
she took with suicidal intent, District
Attorney Martin Of The Bronx has de.
cided TO have the woman transferred
from Lebanon Hospital to the prison

Another reason given by the District

condition prevailing, Mr.. Martin does
not care to remove the woman 10 the

speaking against the proposed bill,
said:

Many Of US would not be here but for

because of the direct primaries that
he is here. The local boss sat on his
