It was another of the series of ecretary Lansing’s disclosures of erman intrigue, made public with- ut comment. The latest story is told in a re- ort to the State Department from VYilliam Whiting Andrews, secretary f the legation at Bucharest, and a ‘ytter from Foreign Minister Porum- aru of Rumania. Packages Aroused Suspicion. Parsels and boxes taken into the rman consulate at Bucharest with isplay of great precaution aroused ae suspicions of the Rumanian Gov- rnment.. On Aug. 27, 1916, the eve- ing prior to the date of Rumantia’s eclaration of war, some of th cases rere taken to the German legation, yeated in a different building from 1e consulate. , Convinced that the boxes were not aken away from the legation by the ferman diplomatic mission on its eparture from Bucharest, the Ru- 1anian authorities later ordered the olice to find and examine their con- mts. The police communicated with 1e¢@ American Minister, Vopicka, 1en in charge of German interests, "ho reluctantly assigned Secretary ndrews to observe the search.

HARTFORD, Conn., Sept. 24.— Thomas J. Dowling, named in a re- cent expose of former Ambassador von Bernstorff’s activities against American munitions plants, as offer- ing to blow up Connecticut plants, was found here last night. He denied that he was an agent of the German diplomat, but contended, on the con- trary, that he was employed by a New York detective agency to find evidence against Von Bernstorff. Several letters were sent to him by Bernstorff, Dowling declared, but these, he says, he has destroyed. *He was not able, he avers, to get Bern- storff to make any offer to pay for destruction of property or to make any arrangement leading to such acts. : DIRECT EVIDENCE OF PRICE FIXING BY MILK DEALERS } Continued from Page One. computing the overhead cost of dis- tribution. - Rueschhoff, in his compiiu of overhead charges, made last ‘week at the request of the Post-Dispatch. allowed 2 cents a gallon for pasteur- ization and 2 cents for bottle loss. What Distributers Get. Holweg also called attention to the fact that the distributers were getting more than 44 cents a gallon for milk sold in bottles. “We get 6 cents for pints and 11 cents for quarts,’ he said, ‘‘and I sell as uch milk in pint bottles at ¢ cents each, or 48 cents a gallon, as I do in quart bottles at 11 cents each, or 44 cents a gallon. My milk brings me an average of 46 cents a gallon.” Holweg said his business had dwin- dled, on account of labor troubles. from 600 to 280 gallons daily. He asserted he would make a good profit were his distribution 600 gallons a day, which could be handled with the same labor that it requires to distribute 280° gallons. Distributers have lost thousands of dollars’ worth of bottles since the Hoover food conservation propa- ganda, Holweg declared, and they suspect housewives of utilizing them to preserve foodstuffs. He said the distributers’ suspicions were aroused in the canning season when boys and girls tried to purchase bottle tops a‘ the milk distributing station, but could not explain satisfactorily what their parents wanted them for. These requests, Holweg asserted, were re- fused. The milk distributed by Holwe comes from Jefferson County - Mo., and cosis him 24 cents a gallon, de- livered at. Carondelet. He has a tentative contract for October of 26 cents a gallon, but believes this wil] be affected by demands of the South «rn lilinots producers.

Occasionally the eye met a littie graveyard with its wooden crosses—some for German soldiers and some for British. In places there still were remains of German dugouts, for the enemy had held this territory at one time. Grass was growing over all this waste but could not conceal’ the myriad of mounds that marked the lips of great shell craters which pit- ted the entire zone. The officer re- turned from his contemplative gaze and answered: “Well, it isn’t exactly the same as Forty-second street, and Broadway, here, but we didn’t come out looking for the ‘great white way.’ We are here for business and we like it— partly for itself, and partly because we ought to like it. We want to do our bit and we are more anxious to do it than ever before. “IT think that some of our boys who have crept up and stolen a look at the fighting lines have been a lit- tle disappointed in a way. Of course, they read of what it was like over here, but it did not seem quite right not to see banners flying on the bat- tlefield and not to witness troops moving out in the open. But they all are tremendously impressed with things in general. They realize m¢re than they did what a vast business this is. And they are all anxious tio do a bigger part. “The health of the camp is excel- lent, and the men are as hard as nails. We are all ready for the call to real action.” , ‘Uses Airplane Wings for Quarters. The American quarters are very simple. One officer proudly dis- played quarters that he had built out of airplane wings which had been discarded by the British, and had been presented to him by a Colo- nel. The reported high reward offered by a German officer for the first American soldier brought into the German lines, dead or alive, has im- mensely amused the Yankees. “We are not worrying about it any,” laughed one officer. ‘“‘We are any time he is ready. We will be waiting.’”’ This contingent of Americans is learning all the while and should make a valuable addition to the American fighting front. All the of- ficers are loud in praise of the fine welcome and treatment accorded to them. by the British. “They are mighty fine folks,”’ the unanimous conclusion of Americans is the Republican Politician Dies.

The suggestion that adults reduce their consumption of milk, in view of the proposed increase in prices, and that hotels and restaurants cut down their orders, has been made from several quarters in the past few days. John B. Dempsey of 4553 Cas- tleman avenue, a lawyer, said today that he and a number of men of his acquaintance had agreed to stop the use of milk, so far as possible. He said he and some of his friends had requested the restaurant where they eat daily to cut down its milk order, and that the proprietor said he would Ud BO, “~- @ +) Pm.

Bing- ham, Her Second Husband, Announce Secret Disinterment. AT ORDER OF RELATIVES Lawyers Say Autopsy Was Per- formed Without Consulting Their Client. WILMINGTON;,'N. C., Sept. 24.— Dr. Charles T. Nesbitt, County Health Officer, acknowledged today that he had issued a permit for the exhuma- tion of the body of Mrs. Robert Worth Bingham, formerly Mrs. Hen- ry M. Flagler. He explained he had withheld information because he had been told by those seeking the per- mit that they thought a crime had been committed. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 24.—At- torneys for Robert Worth Bingham, former Mayor and Chancery Judge here, have announced that the body of Mrs. Bingham, formerly Mrs. Henry M. Flagler, was ex- humed secretly at Wilmington, WN. C., last Tuesday, at the instance of Mrs. Bingham’s relatives, an au- topsy performed in the presence ofa detective of national reputation and several physicians, some of the vital organs were removed and sent to New York and the body presumably was reinterred. The statement given out by the lawyers said: “On Friday morning last, Sept. 21, the press was full of rumors to the effect that the body of the late Mrs. Robert Worth Bingham was to be disinterred. Her grave is in the cem- etery at Wilmington, N. C. “Neither Judge. Bingham nor anv of his friends knew anything about the matter, and the same is true of Helm Bruce, counsel for the execu- tors and legatees under Mrs. Bing- ham’s will. The dispatches stated that the health office of Wilmington would make no statement and would not even affirm or deny that he had granted any permit for disinterment. It was further stated that the collat- eral relatives of Mrs. Bingham had put a guard over her grave. “On Saturday a friend of Judge Bingham was in Wilmington to as- certain exactly the condition of af- fairs. It now appears that at $3 o’clock Tuesday( Sept. 18) the dis- interment took place; that an au- topsy was performed in the presence of William J. Burns and several phy- sicians, that vital ‘parts of the body were removed; that these parts were ¢+urned over to someone and taken to New York. It is needless to say that all of this was surreptitious and was a secret closely guarded until the object was accomplished. “It was presumed that the dis- interred body was reburied. It was then that the supposed necessity arose of jealously protecting the grave from violation. : “It belongs to the public to form its own opinion of this ghastly drama. Left Estate Worth Millions. “Mrs. Bingham was attended in her last illness by Dr. M. L. Ravitch, Dr. W. F. Boggess and Dr. 8S. A. Stein- berg. On Thursday, July 12, two weeks before her death, Mrs. Bing- ham had a severe attack. Her broth- er, William R. Kenan, was summoned. by Judge Bingham and came. He conferred fully with Dr. Ravitch con- cerning Mrs. Bingham’s’ condition and approved everything that was being done. “On Sunday, July 22, Mrs. Bing- ham’s condition was such that Judge Bingham wrote her sisters that he thought they should come. Respon- sive to this, her sister, Mrs. Wise, came, arriving Wednesday evening, July 25. Mrs. Bingham was then fully conscious and remained so un- til Thursday night. Mrs. Wise re- mained with her until the end came Friday. “There were two trained nurses. Their official charts and records are n the custody of Dr. Boggess: These records will be kept in a secure place and produced when a proper occasion arises. “When, if ever, whispered suspi- cion shall become an audible charge, such charge will be met with facts.”’ Mrs. Bingham died in Louisville on July 27 last. The death certificate gave myocarditis as the cause. Mrs. Bingham left an estate having an estimated value of more than $70,- 000,000, the greater part of which her will gave to members of her family. A codicil to the will, executed about a month. before her death, be- queathed $5,000,000 to Bingham. That this codicil would be contested has been indicated. ~ MARRIAGE LICENSES, 2812 N.

PRISON FARM - WITNESS Men Have Told of Goods Which They Alleged Eventually Were Taken 3 by Warden. Post-Dispatch. JEFFEKSON CITY, Sept. 24.— The wording of the indictment brought by the special grand jury ‘against’ Lee Jordan for an over- charge of $3777 on cement bills has caused much speculation here In the true bill, Jordan is charged with having deceived former Warden D. C. McClung as to the amount of ce- ment he was actually delivering to the penitentiary. It i@*well known here that Jordan told the Prison Board when the dis- crepancy first was discovered that his short deliveries to the prison were made with the knowledge and consent of Warden McClung and Mc- Clung admitted to the board that he knew all abaut the transaction. Indictment Wording Peculiar. It is believed here that either the grand jury failed to get that evi- dence, or that the indictment against Jordan is worded so that Jordan can be brought in to make a statement involving other officials and receive immunity for himself. Following the indictment against Jordan Saturday night and the joint indictment against John Scott, for- mer Capitol Commissioner, and Joa Riner, the coal dealer, Judge Slate ordered the grand jury to proceed with the penitentiary investigation and the inquisitors convened at 10 o’clock this morning. A subpena was issued this morn- ing for J. Patrick Murphy, former Assistant Chief Clerk of the peni- tentiary, whose exposures of the McClung management lished in the Post-Dispatch last Jan- uary. All of the witnesses whose state- ments were published in the recent investigation of the penitentiary by the Post-Dispatch have been sub- penaed and will appear before the grand jury today and tomorrow. George H. Schrieffer, a former at- tendant on the private farm of D. C. McClung, has toJd of driving hogs and cattle from tHe penitentiary to McClung’s farm under McClung’s in- structions. He also asserts 50 hams which were hauled to the McClung farm by convicts in a prison wagon, and buried in a dugout or cave near the barn, were later removed by Mce- Clung, who took them away in an automobile. What Employes Have Said. Robert Zumwalt and ‘Ed’ Mead. carpenters, have assorted they saw a prison employe unload vegetables, bread and other supplies from a pris- on wagon at the home of former State Auditor J. P. Gordon. who was also a member of the Board of Pris- on Inspectors. Mead asserts he ex: amined one large package and trat it smelled like cooked meat. Gus Kremer, whose farm adjoins McClung’s farm, has said that he saw convicts unload from prison wagons a lot of high-grade flooring lumber on the McClung farm and that McClung told him: ‘‘That lum- ber belongs over at the State farm. It should not have been brought here,” but that later the lumber was used to build a granary on the Mc- Clung place. nT, was employed at the penitentiary, will be called to testify as to whether he hauled supplies to the home of John P. Gordon and in what quanti- ties. Otto Schrieffer, son of George, has given information about hauling bran and stock feed from the prison farm to the McClung farm to be fed to McClung’s stock, under orders from McClung. He also has said that he hauled two Underwood typewriters, a lot of office and household furniture, in- cluding a filing cabinet containing records and papers, to the McClung farm under the former Wardén’s or- ders. The Post-Dispatch traced the own- ership of the typewriters by the serial numbers on them and found that they both had been bought from the Underwood company by the Democratic State Committee, of which McClung was chairman. The finding of the typewriters on the McClung farm occurred six months after McClung had been succeeded by James A. Cowgill as chairman of the State Committee.

Sept. 24. —The plan of reorganization of the army for the needs of the times, and to adapt it to trench warfare, as an- nounced in Washington Saturday night, found Camp Funston ready. The officers here are probably far- ther advancel in this. line than in This new plan makes the platoon the fighting unit, instead of the com- pany as in the past, The. adminis- trative unit now is the battalion In- stead of the regiment. In general, the effect will be to give greater powers and opportunities for the ex- ercise of initiative to minor officers, and this is always a popular move with the majority of commissioned» men. : : Eight officers who have been un- officers have been herg for weeks, teaching the new warfare to the Eighty-ninth Divisicon. Lieutenant- Colonel Martin Crimmins was the head of the school here. As the re- sult of this teaching, the system of fighting being taught provides for the use of the platoon as here shown. Each platoon of 58 men will be under command of a Lieutenant. The arms will be of the models and types best suited for work. There will be seven grenadiers un- der a Corporal. These men will be armed only with bombs to be thrown by hand. There will be two automatic rifle- reserve, each accompanied by two carriers who transport the spare bar-} rel and ammunition. The automatic rifle is a new weapon which shoots 10 times as fast as the service rifle. There will be four rifle grenadiers, who will shoot from the rifle a gren- ade of great destructive powers. Each pair is accompanied by a carrier. In advancing to position before the. charge, the platoon is in the forma- tion shown in Diagram 1. The men march in close formation, if condi- tions are favorable, with four inches between elbows and 40 inches be- tween men. ‘ Behind the formation shown are the other men of the platoon, divid- ed into Liason agents and a body of picked men, numbering usually from six to ten, known as the ‘‘Moppers Upon reaching the point of attack, the men deploy into a formation shown in diagram Thus two waves are provided, each with its The position - as- 2. is considered the ideal one, but is In different cases he may take place in either and when great numbers of waves are going over along a wide the commissioned officers No attack is to be made without great study of the enemy trench, from photo- airplanes.
