CONTROLS MUNITION PLANTS.
All Arms Factories in England Under Government" Says Lloyd George.

Paris, Aug. 26, 4:55 A. M.-"The government now nas under control all factories able to produce cannon, rifles, projectiles and explosives said David Lloyd George, British minister of munitions, in an interview with Charles Humbert, new editor of the Journal. Ut also controls all foun: dries and machine and tool factories, and not one pound of metal or one detached piece is turned out by this vast industrial machine which is not destined for the use of our armies. This war must not be fought with brawny chests, but with machinery
 From what MT. Lloyd George showed him M Humbert believes British preparations in many ways are more ample than those of the French. He. declares the army now in training will be one of the most powerful the world has ever seen and when, later it will be possible to tell what has been accomplished by the British, the universe will be dumb with admiration

LATEST LAND ACQUISITIONS

Berlin, Nov 1.-The school au-
thorities in Bavaria have published
notes on war geography for the chill
dred attending the public schools.
The following information is given re-
garding Russia:
The Russian territory already oc-
cupied by the Germans is four times
as extensive as the Kingdom of Ba-
yaria, but is only one-seventy-fi of
the entire Russian empire But the
greater part of Russia is thinly popu-
lated, and the most populous districts
are already in German possession, so
that Russia can now show only six
sevenths of her former population.
At the beginning of the war Russia
had fifty million more inhabitants
than Germany and Austro-Hungary
combined; namely, 10 millions
against 100 millions. After a year of
warfare, this position had been re-
versed Russia now has only las
millions, whereas the central mon
arches rule over 1b6 millions. s1sylsas
The new territory occupied in east
and west is as extensive as the entire
kingdom of Prussia.
