BRITAIN DEFENDS
SEIZURE OF MAIL
Says Germany Is Sending
Supplies Through
Parcel Post.

LONDON. March 10.-"There has
been some feeling in the United
States that our action in OBTAINING
parcels and letter mail for eXamina-
ton was frivolous and that it entailed
an amount of inconvenience out
of all proportion to the benefit which
might accrue to our enemies from the
goods thus carried said Sir Lord
Robert Cecil. minister of war trade,
i'm showing to the Associated Press
representative today some figures
which showed the extent of the trade
carried on through the mails to and
from Germany.
These figures taken alone Lord
Robert added, seem to sustain the
American criticism as none of them
is large in comparison with the cargo
seizures. But the whole groblem
reduces itself to the broad question
whether Germany can import goods
valua BILE for her war purposes and eX-
port goods increasing her foreign
credits under first class and parcel
postage. So it becomes question not
so much of what actually is shipped
in this form, but what would be
shipped if England announced to the
world that she would not touch goods
sent through the post to and from
Germany.
Recently we have taken from let
ter mail sent from Germany valuable
consignments Of goods which can not
be regarded as postal correspondence
under The Hague convention.
As an instance of the use of the
parcel post we took from the liner

WORK ON NEW RAIL WAY
BEGUN AT WASHINGTON
,sneciaI Dispatch to The Journa

Especial Dispatch TO The Journal .
WASHINGTON, Ga, Jan. 11.-Al-
though dirt was broken at the public
exercises on the Sd instant. actual work
upon the construction of the Washington
and Lincolnton railroad was not begun
until this week. Moday morning the
Morrow Construction company, of At
Ianta, with a force of more than 100
hands and an equal number of teams,
began the grading Of Washingtons sec
ond railroad, and a line that will mean
much to this entire section OF east
Georgia. The road will run in an east
erly direction to Lincolnton, twenty
miles distant, and eventually to Column
bia, S. c., apd from there to the sea-
coast.
The contract between the railroad COM
many. which is oficered by Washington
business men and is being built entirely
with local capital and the construction
company is that the road must be grad
ed between this city and Metasville, a
town halfway between the two cities,
by May /.
The washington and Lincolnton road
will be the first to enter Lincoln coun-
ty. and will traverse a section Of the
county where there is a quantity or
original timber. Already a North Car
olina lumber company, which has secur-
ed timber rights in that county. has as
sured the road that they are prepared
TO supply the road with a large revenue
in the way of freight on lumber. 1t is
believed there is enough timber in the
immediate section through which the
road is to pass to supply the road with
FIVE cars OF lumber daily for a period of
at least two years.

DUPONT POWDER PLANT
HAS ITS FIFTH EXPLOSION
Small Wheel Mill Blown Upp
but No One Is In
jured y
CBy Associated Press.

WILMINGTON, Del, Jan. 12.-The
fifth explosion in two days at the Du-
Pont Powder plants in this vicinity
occurred late last night in the Hagley
yards on the outskirts of this city. A
small wheel mill blew up and beyond
destroying the building and about a
ton of powder, no damage was done.
No one was in the mill.
The fourth explosion occurred late yes
terday afternoon at the smokeless pow
der plant at Carney's Point, N. j.,
across the Delaware river from VIII
mington. Thirteen tons of powder went
OFF without injuring any one.
Last Sunday night there was a blast
at Carney's Point which killed three
men, and Monday there was an explo-
sion at the Hagley yards and another
one at Carney's Point.
The DUPONT company attributes the
explosions to unavoidable accidents
though the definite cause is not known.
1.-THE large number of explosions at
this time" said a representative of the
company, ais undoubtedly due to the
fact that the company's force is 100
times as great as when the European
war broke out, and there is so much
more work to be done. 1t is also a
fact that nearly all of the orders are
hurried and il is also true that some
of the operatives have not been at the
business long enough to acquire the ex-
perience of many of the older men.
