 "The concern furnishes an excellent example of the German pre-war methods of obtaining a foothold in an essential American industry" says MT.

The company installed light railway equipment in virtually all American munition plants, steel plants and kin dred concerns. It had contracts with the Westinghouse Co.,, with the United States Steel Co.,, with the Du Pont works and with nearly half of the big industrial plants operating in this country.
 Under these conditions it can read fly be seen how easy 1t was for this German owned concern to supply in- formation of great military import ance to the German government re- garding the big industrial and muni. tion~ plants in this country.

MUST ABANDON
 THE PAN GERMAN
 PEACE PROGRAM
First Conditions for Peace Which Must Be Met By
 Huns, Says Delbrueck.

Stockholm, Sept. 11-As the first step toward peace Germany must re- nounce the pan-German ideas in the opinion of Prof. Hans Delbrueck of the University of Berlin. In an ar ticle in the magazine Prussian Year Book he declares the pan-Germans not only bear portion of the respon- ability for the war, but also the chief responsibility for its prolongation. He says:
 "The world demands and has right to demand that the German people give a guaranty that the pan-Germar spirit, the spirit of superiority o1 might of heathendom, isn't the Ger man spirit. The best method o1 showing the world that the German government has definitely and ire vocably shown the pan-German en deavors the door would be for tht government to collect all of those ante-bellum pan-German incitation! and demonstrate by means of oul enemies literature how greatly thei1 conduct damaged us and help to ligh the fires of this catastrophe war"

BURGLAR TRIED
 TO ASPHYXIATE
 ENTIRE FAMILY

Totius Theodorou, arrested last night after he had attempted to as- phyxiate three children and two boarders in the home of Alex Kabant- gas 673 Main street, when he robbed the place, was before the city court today and held in $500 bonds for the Superior court by Judge Wilder.
 Theodorou, was arrested by Patrol men Callahan and Connery, as he fled from the scene of his murderous attempt He had his loot tied up in a skirt when accosted by the officers and in answer to their question as to what he had in the bundle he replied that it was none of their business.
 This resulted in an investigation and his arrest. Several skeleton keys were found upon his person as'well as many articles stolen from other places. He was released from jail only last Thursday after serving term of four months for stealing a watch from Mrs. Kabantzas.
 The three children who were res | cued just in time, are John and Peter, twins, age five, and Bessie, seven years of age. When Patrolmen Quinn and Doyle entered the house after they had been summoned by the father, they removed the children to the side walk where they were revived by pr. Frank E. Gavlas of the Emergency hospital. The two boarders were but | slightly effected by the fumes.
 When the police examined the house they found that Theodorou had at- l tached a rubber hose between 25 and
 30 feet long to the gas jet in the 1 kitchen of the Kabantzas home. He
 pulled this hose into the bedrooms and allowed the gas to escape to rem
 der the inmates of the house uncon-
 scious while he footed the place.
 He was caught in the act by the
 father of his victims but escaped
 through the kitchen window with
 part of the booty. A few minutes
 afterward he was arrested by Officers Callahan and Connery
