and two contracting concerns on the

There has been no hint of strike and

The contractors claim that the

The German planes appeared ov-

nine. The raiders were scattered
and did not come in compact form

by the defense guns, giving the ap-

The scream of the torpedoes used
by the Germans was distinguishable
easily from the explosions of guns

State Department Has
Still Bigger Things
Up Sleeve
Names Of All Interested In
Plots Known--Fu Dis
closures Expected

Washington, Sept. 24.-While
there is no indication Of what will
be the State Departments next dis
closure Of German intrigue in AM
erica or elsewhere, it is known that
disclosures are sensational as any
yet published are being held in re-
serve and may be made at any
time.
One Of the things the State De-
partment has is a list of persons
who received Germany money in the
passport frauds, the munitions plots
and practically all the other activ-
tiles of German intrigue here which
took place between the beginning
of war in August, 1914, and the
entry Of the United States into
conflict This list is said to con-
tain scores Of names and the
amounts of money represented run
very high.
From time to time the department
also probably will make public GER
tain evidence to dispose of denials
of those who have been involved in
the disclosures already made.

The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1917-09-25

Of Americans who stand for and are
representative of America, l wish
now for a minute to speak to you
of an American who represents the
worst of American characteristics
Senator La Toilette.
Senator La Toilette is at this mo-
ment loyalty and efficiently serving
one country-Germany. He is act
ing in such fashion as to make him
one of the most potent enemies Of
this country and a most sinister en-
emy of democracy. He claims, and
it is the emptiest of all CLAIMS, to
stand for democracy. He is doing
everything in his power to enthrone
the German flag throughout the
world by the attitude he is now TAX
ing toward the war.
81 read couple Of days ago of
Senator La Follette's utterances be-
fore an organization out in Mime
apolis, and hereafter any organiza-
ton that asks Senator La Toilette
to speak ought to be made to show
conclusively why it should be con-
sidered a patriotic organization
thereafter"
Continuing his remarks concern
ing Congress, Colonel Roosevelt as
serted that if Congress had taken
the action three years ago that it
has since the declaration Of war, the
war would be over.
