We have received marked copy of
a St. Louis paper, containing a well
written article in defense of the
South against the unjust attack of
the Chicago Tribune. On another
page is big advertisement of the st.
Louis paper, not only setting forth its
undoubted excellencies, but playing it
up as friend of the South. The
South appreciates disinterested
friends. It doesn't care boot for
friends who are friends for revenue
only. We would rather try to con-
vince the Chicago paper that it is
mistaken than send subscription to
the st. Louis sheet.

 A heifer owned by Clark Page was taken i'll Saturday and examination showed that it suffered rabies.

Full details of an effort made in the interest of Germany to buy the Union Metallic Cartridge Go. of this city have been filed with the gov ernment at Washington
 At the same time it was said that there is reason to believe that had the Germans succeeded in gaining control of the Bridgeport plant, it was their plan to reduce the wages to such an extent that a strike would ensue, which they would use after ward as a club to force strikes in oth- CT munition plants dealing with the Allies.
 The German interests sought to get the plant for SIT, 800, 1000, according to the details filed at Washington. The capital stock sissued, according to a financial report, was $1s500,0O0 for 1913, but the plant is estimated to be worth at least $4,5OO,0oO. The in terests involved, however, were led to bid as high as $17, ,50O,000.
 From unverif1ed information, it is believed that the matter will be laid before the Department of Justice for further investigation.
 The purchase of that plant, it is saids was part of the plan which certain German representatives, in- cluding Franz Rinte1en and Dr. Hein- rich Albert. had for getting control of arms and intuition factories in this country. In all their various enter prises along that line, however, they were checkmated.
 An offer of $17, 7,5OO,OO0 for the plant was made last, spring. It is said they would have gone even higher had they felt there was a chance of getting the controlling stock.

Germans, Attracted Here By Boom, Refuse
 To Manufacture Arms

Thousands of Germans, many ,ot them interned on ships in this coun- try are without work, according to Louis Schwerdtle, head of the relief committee in this city.
 Hundreds of these men, hearing of prosperity in Bridgeport, drifted to this city in thee hope of finding rennu- nerattve occupations, many of them becoming charges on local, Germanic charities until they got transportation to other cities.
 It is asserted that the Remington Arms & Ammunition Go. and the Union Metallic Cartridge Go. here have offered employment readily to them without respect to their nationality, but the feeling of prejudice against manufacturing arms lor ammunition to kill their own countrymens has, almost without a single instance, prevented them from accepting the lucrative work offered

REPORT OF TEUTON EFFORT TO BUY UP ARMS PLANTS IS
 FILED AT NATIONAL CAPITAL

in this country and to whom were submitted many reports, is said to have been ready to furnish the money for the payment for the plant. It is hinted that Archibald White, "a Wall Street broker, entered into ne gotfationS with various men and caus- ed them to make the offer to the owners of the Bridgeport plant. Marcellus Hartley Dodge is report ed to have received several offers, for his holdings of stock in the com pany, but he declined them. A man who had a tentative arrangement for, the purchase of the controlling interest of the company was approached, and he could have made $1,500,000 clear profit simply by helping the German interests get the plant, but he re- fused. 2
 The aim of the Germans, it is said, was to purchase the plant and then when other German agents succeed ed in stirring up labor troubles, let the situation get worse and worse, with the result the plant eventually would be tied up and nog shipnIents of cartridges for the Allies would be made at all.
 It was pointed out yesterday that the export of arms and ammunition for the Allies is just beginning to attain something of the proportions that may be expected for the next year. A steady growth of the out put of the intuition factories is ex- pected from now on. While the shipments Of arms and ammunition are said now to average $2, 100000 a day, there will be 8 tremendous in crease by the middle of March. By that time the capacity of the factor ies ih this country under the present orders from the Allies will have been reached.
