Manchester Guardian Denounces
The Manchester Guardian assumes
that the Swedish foreign office knew
the contents of the cipher messages 1t
would be fairly easy to learn them, the
newspaper declared. as it points out
that what could be decoded by employees
of the United States government could
be decoded by employees Of the Swedish
government.
But even if it did not, Continues the
Guardian. "its responsibility is not less
great. 1t gave a blank cheaue which
could be and in fact was used by one
belligerent against other belligerents
and neutrals."
I'VE are tempted TO ask whether the
Swedish cabinets put themselves at the
disposition Of Germany out of pure dis
interested zeal or whether they were
promised an equivalent. Is there any
secret compact in which perhaps, the
future Of Finland finds a placer"
The Guardian assumes that the Swed
ish people know nothing Of these trans
actions and will hasten the necessary
measures to clear themselves Of the
stain their government has put on
Sweden's good name"

Big Flour Mill and Barn
Burned During Storm

Waynesboro, Pa, July 27.-About
noon yesterday heavy storm passed
over the Williamson section. 1t was
one of the worst in the county this
season. Near Williamson a portion of
the South Penn Branch tracks was
washed away. and the Cumberland
Valley train was delayed four hours.
Fort Loudon and St. Thomas also suf-
fered from the rainfall. Growing
corn, fruits and garden crops suf-
fered much and fields were badly
flooded. The west branch OF the
Conococheague was at its highest
point in recent years.
During the heavy storm that Wis
tied that section, lightning struck the
-four mill of c. n. Binkley, at State
Line, ana burned IL to the ground
There was insurance on the mill, but
not half enough to cover the loss,
A spark from the burning mill set FIRE
to the barn of Gilbert Brewbaker,
nearby, and entirely consumed that
structure and contents. The barn
contained all of this years crops and
the loss is heavy. The lives took was
saved. The total loss on mill and barn
is estimated at $4,000.
