 FFpm the spoils of the charnel-, hqht{ aRd the dtssecting room Frank efstfan" created a prodigy, bereft of morAity, whose crimes surprised him. Out of a mixture of Wends Slavs, Teutons, and what not, centuries of military discipline, the power of Kul- tur, physics and chemistry, and the discoveries of modern science used without scTuple. have created a gov- ernment of monsters-Germany.
 We have seen the German dtplo- matic courier carrying bombs in scan- dinavia. We have read of German missionaries bringing the germs of anthrax and glanders to Sweden for use in Russia. MT. Lansing let us see. in the cold light, of official docu- ments, the sEGerman Legation in Bucharest py4paring, in company with the Bulgaria9f Legation, pupils of the Germans, civilization but thinly var nish1ng their old Asiatic strain. de- struction by explosives, by microbes. against Rumanian property and life.
 The Bucharest auth critics had mo- tlced for some time before Rumania. declared war much cautious bringing of parcels and boxes into the German Consulate. A part of this So del- tcately handled baggage was trans- ferred from the Consulate to the building of the Legation, some dis tance away, on the night before the declaration of war, Aug. 27, 1916. As this treasure was not carried away by the Legation on its departure from Bucharest, the authorities naturally assumed that it was still in sftu. and the Prefect of Police was told to search for 1t. Some of it had been moved to the German Legation after our Legation had taken charge of German interests in Rumania. The former confidential agent of the Ger man ministers and some of it's serv- ants admitted that. This echt Deutsch violation of the good offices of the United States is but the small- est part of the echt Deutsch trans action. The Prefect of Police, &C., companied by the American minister. visited the German Legation on Oct. 5. The German caretaker and a servant admitted that on the day or the day before the declaration of war the former had received from an at- tache of the German Legation par eel sealed with tie seal of the Ger man Consul at Brasso and had been instructed to bury 1t in the garden of the Legation. The caretexer didn't have time to do the job alone; the attache helped in the burial. The caretaker said that the boxes trans ferred from the Consulate had lain 3r, ha hoc SA,,x the Legation left. Then the Coun- selor of the Legation told the care- taker to bury them. Which he and of the Legation supervising the job and warning the diggers to be careful
 The treasure, dug up, proved to consist of explosives of high de- structive power, of vials containing cultivations of the bacillus of anthrax and of the bacillus of glanders All this German entertainment for man and beast must have been smuggled in when Germany and Rumania were at peace. The experts and the chem ists have reported on the virtues of the buried legacy. Next to the pie ture of the attache yielding the spade with his own hands as he inters the murderous stuff in the garden the student of German character will like to put the Typewriter note found "above a layer of cotton wool' in the box containing four vials for horses and four for cattle:
 Each vial is sufficient for 200 head. To be introduced. if possible, directly into the animals throats; If not, into their fodder. Please make a little report on the success obtained there. In case of good. results, the presence of MT. Kostoff for one day here would be desirable.
 We don't know who MT. Kostoff is, but "the good results" have come, If otherwise than was hoped Under the official seal, with many evidences of military and diplomatic com- plicity, often with names and dates of cially ascertained, checked off by the American minister, this little part of the immense German enginery of scientific murder-p1anting stands out clear to the world. It is but the scantiest sowing of the worldwide German Garden of Death.
 No nation but Germany is capable | Of these scientific savageries. Of no l other nation would they be believed. The implacable evidence, long, va rious, cumulative, is piling up every 1 day. With a government engaging in such horrors. who can be at peace. 1
