According to the best ObtAinable In
formation, the gypsy moth was first
brought into this country in 1869, or
thereabouts, by Mr.. L. TrOuvelOt, an
nrtlst and astronomer who was inter-
ested In silk culture. In order to over
come q wilt disease or "flacherle"
then playing havoc In silk worm es-
Establishments, he tried to cross the silk
worm with certain other species to OBJ
tain q harder or more resistant race
Of silk worms. Among other silk spin
uing caterpillars in their various
stages which he imported from France
for this purpose were some egg-masses
Of the gypsy moth. Some Of the cater
pillars escaped accidentally from the
breeding cages at his home, MedfOrd,
Mass, and though he searched for them
and published a notice at the time, the
affair was soon forgotten. The insect
was not seen for years, but by 1889
had become a serious pest in this same
locality.
Methods Of Spread.
Gypsy moths are spread as follows
Egg-clusters are transported in many
ways; caterpil;ars carried on vehicles
newly hatched caterpillars are blown
In q strong wind. The former method
accounts for most Of the isolated colo

Battle of Marne.

COPENHAGEN. May 9.-(Nia Lon
don. )-Tho conservatives and pan
Germans have now brought up their
heavy artillery in the battle against
Chancellor Won Bethmann- lIollweg
and boldly lay the blame for the
long duration OF the war at his
door. The conservative Deutsche
Tages Zeitung explains that three OF
four days in German mobilization at
the outset OF the war, due to the chan
celior's hesitant policy. caused the
loss of the battle OF the Marno.
The paper holds that the troops
that were detached to stem the Rus
tian invasion of East Prussia would
nave been sufficient to change the
defeat of General Won KluCk's army
into 4 victory ana in that case the
war would have ended in "A speedy
and decisive German triumph. The
Tags Zeitung goes on to declare that
the chancellor threw away a second
chance OF terminating the war by op-
posing ruthless submarine warfare. 1t
cited Field Marshal Conrad Won Hoet-
zendorf. Austrian commander-in-
chief. as saying recently:
The war would have been over
long ago II the submarine campaign
had begun year earlier"
The pan-Germans and anneXation-
lists are also comparing the chancellor
to Bismarck and demanding his re-
tirement because he does not measure
up to Germans iron man" The
agitation for the downfall OF Won
Bethmann-Holweg Is unconcealed in
press and parliament and is reinforced
by mass meetings organized 10y i'm

The bitterness increases as the
