ALLIES TAKE OVER BIG MUNITION PLANT
Acquire Control Of Concern With
 Large War Order

Philadelphia, Sept. 23.-The Anglo Russian Commission has brought 8 controlling interest in the stock of the Eddystone Ammunition Company, the huge subsidiary of the Baldwin Loco motive Works which has been making munitions for the Allies.
 Announcement of the sale was made by the Baldwin company. The En- poration in it's present name, but will elect their own directors and manu- facture shells only for Great Britain and Russia.
 The Eddystone Ammunition Com pany was formed about fifteen months ago, built a plant at Eddystone, Penn, which has kept 5000 men steadily en- ployed, and has handled some of the largest intuition contracts that have come to the United States. It is un- derstood to hold a contract with the Russian government, not yet complet- ed, for 2,500,0O0 shells at an aver- age cost of $15.
 In financial circles it was rumored that the business was taken over by the Anglo- o-Russian Commission be- cause of the failure of the corpora tion to meet this contract. It also was said that the Russian government had advanced the corporation large sums of money and was not entirely satisfied with what it had received in return.
 On good authority it was said that high officials of the BpHish and Rus sian governments would be included in the directorate of the corporation. The statement issued by Alba B. John son, president of the Baldwin Loco- motive Works, follows:
 "The announcement made yesterday that the Baldwin Locomotive Works is to take over the management of the Eddystone Ammunition Corporations s contracts with the British governm ent does not accurately express the situa- tion.
 "The stock of the ammunition cor poration has been acquired by the Ang1o-Russian Commission, which will designate the board of directors. The corporation itself continues it's cor porate existence and it's lesseeship of the buildings which have been, con- structed for it's use and is to continue to perform it's contracts.
 '"The selection of the Baldwin Loco- motive Works in the matter of under taking to carry on the business is in

HUGHES YOICELESS
 BUT CROWD CHEERS
'Only Few Able to Hear Him
 in Open Air Talk

South Bend, Ind, Sept. 2S.-After delivering thirteen more speeches in what is considered the most strenuous campaign tour ever staged in this state, Charles E. Hughes ended the ssecond day of his fight to win In- k diana here last night almost worn out. His voice was husky and un- certain and gave his physician, Dr. l.. D. Alexander, Jr., much concern because there was another hard days work ahead of the nominee today. MT. Hughes, however, refused to give up and went through the schedule to the end as best he could.
 A crowd, estimated at from 10000 to 30,000, greeted MT. Hughes when he appeared on the balcony over looking. the City Hall Square, and be- cause of his faltering voice he was able to say only few words of greet ing, which were heard by small fraction of the throng.
 It was a keen disappointment to MT. Hughes. He showed plainly the signs of wear and tear, but the reception &C., corded to him. easily the greatest demonstration since his nomination, had been medicine to jaded nerves and tired body.
 pr. Alexander ruled that he must not talk at all in the open air, and an announcement to that effect was made by Medill Mccormick, the H. linods leader. The crowd howled for Hughes, and putting aside those who attempted to restrain him, he stepped to the front of the balcony and strug- gled gamely to make his voice heard. He tried to shout the word Amer icanisn' and those near the building caught 1t and started a cheer. He talked for possibly 8 minute and then stopped when warned that further ef- fort might make it impossible for him @koteentinue his campaign.
 Later in the evening MT. Hughes talked at an indoor meeting in the High school and appeared before an overflow meeting. He tried to express his appreciation and by careful use of his voice got through with his speech.
 Frank H. Hitchcock met MT. Hughes here. The whole town turned out to welcome the candidate at the station, and there was big torchlight parade. ....

CURBING WORK IN
MANOA DISTRICT
IS ORDERED OUT
City Engineer Finds Work is
Not Up to Requirement and
Acts With Decision
ENGINEER FOR CONTRACTOR
TENDERS HIS RESIGNATION
F. H. Richie, Brother of the
Contractor, Takes Charge
and Work Continues

Trouble over the work being done
on tho Manoa frontage Improvement
district, which has been brewing for
sone time, came to a head today when
ali cirbing work was ordered torn out
because, City Engineer Collins main
tains. It does not conform TO speclf-
cations. Also, William G. Allen, en-
gineer i'm charge, resigned because he
did not receive sufficient cooperation
from the San Francisco Office.
II has been known that there had
been trouble among the workmen on
the Job because they had not received
their pay from F. r. Ritchie & Com
pany, contractor, when ii was due and
a number of them have left, inelud-
ing Charles Clark, foreman, who re-
turned to work for the city. Today
residents OF Manoa valley, headed by
Edwin Benner and A. c. Corneleson,
announced that they were ready TO
protest the poor grade of work being
put In unless something was done,
their specific objections being: that
the curbing has not been placed on
a compact base and is not aligned;
that the concrete has not been work
ed SO that the mortar is flush against
the forms, and as a result is full OF
pores and pockets; and that the forms
should have been removed just be-
fore the concrete hardened and a brush
used to give the surface a uniform
surface instead of which cement plas-
ter was used 10 hide the cavities and
soiiah places in the concrete;
George Collins, city engineer. said
today that he had condemned the
work week ago, and at the time
had told Benner what he had done
Today when he called UP and found
that nothing had been done, he order
ed the curbing on Ferdinand avenue
be torn out at once, and instructed
Fred Pierce, assistant city engineer
in charge. to see that it was done re-
gardless of any protests from the con-
tractors
1t is understood that F. H. Ritchie,
brother of F. R. Ritchie, contractor,
is now in charge of the work which
is proceeding as usual today. II was
announced Wednesday that all the
workmen had been paid the money
due, it having arrived from San Fran
cisco Tuesday.
Allen said that he had wired his res
ignation to San Francisco Tuesday,
and today had left the work. He also
said that he had resigned several
weeks ago, but that Ritchie induced
him to continue at work, but as the
lack of cooperation between Ritchie at
San Francisco and himself continued,
he decided 1t would be impossible for
him to work for Ritchie longer than
today.
