SPIES NOT FEARED
AT DU PONT PLANT;
r NO EXTRA GUARD
Only Usual Precautions
Taken to Protect Plant,
Owing' to Big Orders
Caused by War.
WILMINGTON, Del., Nqy. 43.-"The
United States la now doing the greatest
Jowder business In the world," declared
Colonel E. O. Buckner, vice president of
the du Pont Powder Company, today,
"and naturally we arc guarding tho plant,
s we always did. Wo are taking no
extra precautions on account of foreign
Pics."
Tho Colonel had been asked concerning
report that foreign spies were prowling
bout the powder plants nnd that roads
had been closed and numerous guards put
on duty.
"We arc always careful about the pow
der plants," he said, "and the bUBler they
re, the more men are required. Just at
prcsont we aro unusually busy. As I
aid, the war has given tho powder busi
ness of the world to the ttnlted States.
"Germany and England supplW most
of the. powder used by tho countries of
South America and Europe. In all South
America thero Is but one powder plant.
When the war broke out tho plants of
England and Germany could no longer
supply tho demands of their customors.
They wcro busy making powder for them
selves. They could not send any away.
France makos Its own powder, but It has
never exported any considerable quan
tity. "Should I want to visit a powder plant
I would be compelled' to get a permit
from tho man whoso business It Is to
issue permits.
Asked concerning the report that tho
du Pont Company had a new process of
manufacturing powder. Colonel Bucknor
Uughcd and replied:
"Wo aro always, making Improvements
in the manufacture of powder. We keep
about 2C0 chemists constantly at work
trying to make Improvements."
One rumor had It that tho roads to tho
llagley yard had been closed. Tho Hag
ley yard has not made powder for a long
time and Is used as a place to manu
facture kegs and packing boxes. Thero
are no roads closed which have not
always been closed.
INESTIMABLE VALUE

Conciliating Newspapers.

Urges Activity.
rxou k BTirr coEirsronDENT.
SCRANTON, Pa,, Nov. 23. The Inesti
mable value of publicity work In a cam
paign such as the suffragists have planned
in their endeavor to obtain the ballot In
1915 was the subject for discussion at the
morning session of the convention here.
Miss Katharine Speer Reed, State pub
licity manager, Impressed upon the coun
ty leaders tho value of conciliating the
newspapers In their communities and of
ubmlttlng timely news for publication,
"The big, enterprising journals of tho
State," she said, "are alive to the Im
portance of suffrage news, but many' of
the smaller papers have to be converted."
In conclusion, Miss Beed said the Johns
town Tribune, the New Castle Herald and
the Wllkes-Barre Times Leader had re
sponded nobly to suffrage advances and
even had issued suffrage editions.
At the end of the conference on pub
licity, Miss Reed paid enthusiastic tribute
to the Evening? Lbdobh and Its fairness
to the cause.
PROPAGANDA FLOODS STATE.
llUs Helen McFarland, secretary of the
association, reid the report on campaign
literature and demonstrated the whole
sale manner In which the cause has been
advertised.
"Five million pieces of literature,'' she
aid. "have been given out the last year.
In tho three summer months alone, 1.137,
413 leaflets have been distributed at coun
ty fairs. Field work booths were estab
lished at 31 fairs and 279 speeches made
to a total attendance of 1,230,600. The
number of persons who signed our little
yellow slips Indorsing suffrage, was so
great that no record could be kept,"
The suffrage novelty, uch as "the
Christmas stocking bearing the slogan,
"Ask Santa to Bring a, Vote to Mother,"
stationery marked "Votes for Woman"
and the superiority of pictures oer car
toons as a means of driving home the
suffrage argument, were discussed at
length from the floor. A Saturday Eve
ning Post cartoon, depicting the women
of the war apne performing the arduous
tasks of the men and labeled "And yet
she Is not strong enough to vote," re
ceived particular commendation.
Mrs. Frank M. Roesaln. president of
the association, made a special plea to
the artist suffragists for effective poat
card'deslgns. The postcard, she saia, was
one of the best means of advertising the
cause.
A minute before adjournment of the

Tho police have discovered a revolu

"On November 17 the police discovered
that a meeting of tho conference was to

of police arrived on the scene and found
there 11 persons, including five members
of the Duma.
"There being no doubt as to tho antl
Qovornment object of the conference,
tho members of the meeting were nr
rested after a search, with the excep

wero released. An examining magistrate
was Intrusted with the Inquiry, and Im

touched by tho unusual courtesy.
The detraining of the prisoners took
place In the suburbs of the city, to avoid
any untoward Incidents. They were then

Suspicion of the destination of the

The "grand old lady" of tho convention
Is Miss Susan E. Dickinson. Miss Dickin
son has watched suffrage grow In Penn
sjlvanla for over 6Q ears and is looking
forward enthusiastically to a Uctory In
1015. From a much-revllcd causo she
has seen It develop Into nu exceedingly
popular one, and she has done much to
help In tho development.
"Our homo In Philadelphia," sajs she,
"was for oars tho home where were
entei tallied Elisabeth Cady Stanton, Isa
bella Beocher Hooker, Wendell Phillips
and other leaders In tho movement of
woman's advancement, therefore I Bhould
know something about tho causo."
To Miss Dickinson belongs much of the
credit for tho admission of women medi
cal students to the Pennsylvania Hos
pital clinics. v She has been a Journal
ist, and it wns through the columns of
the press that she waged her battle for
"woman's rights."
A story of n "cute" trick which the
Scranton suffragists played on some out-of-town
"antls" who mado a temporary
descent upon the tonn a faw months ago
for the purposo of distributing lltcraturo
Is being chuckled over In convention
circles. Tho "surfs" when they heard of
the adcnt of the "enemy" put on their
bonnets, nnd In the guise of would-be
converts, went to the opposition head
quarters and took nil the literature that
was given them. Later on they changed
their bonnets and went back again. They
kept this up for three dnjs.
At tho end or that time the "antls," so
'tis said, gave out Jubilant Interviews to
tho papers that nil their lltcraturo was
gono; the Scranton avidity for "antl"
pamphlets was simply marvelous, and
never had they had such a successful
campaign. Meanwhile, the suffragists
announced that their Arcs had never
burned more brightly before. But they
adopted the motto: "I.ook twice beforo
handing out literature," so that tho trick
might not bo turned on them.

Tho Rev. Vcre Awdry, Ampfleld Vlcnr
age, Romey, has received the following
letter from Major Jervls, of the Munsler
Fusiliers, a prisoner of tho war, relative
to tho death of tho vicar's son, Lieu
tenant Carol Awdry:
"As tho senior of the surviving officers
end ot a Village named Kesmy, through
which our line of retreat laj.
"Ho performed the duty In a most ablo
manner, and, although harassed with n
nnsty fire, he held on until tho battalion
withdrew, and then Joined with his little
force Intact. It was a commendable per
formance, worthy of one of far greater
ngo and experience thnn your son.
"Ills company then continued the with
drawal until wo enmo to tho next vll
Ingo (Olsy), when It was detailed to act
as rearguard. Again they were sharply
engnged, by largely Increased forces this
time, but they gallantly held their own,
J our son again holding a detached posi
tion oX Important cross-roads, iind again
the battalion was ablo to withdraw In
safety. Your boy's party was tho last
to come In, and, though ho lost a few
men, ho saved many more.
"It Is now G o'clock (p.m.), and It wns
then discovered that we were cut off from
the main body. The battalion shook out
to tho attack In an endeavor to break
through, every ofllcer doing good work,
your son no less than the others. With
sword drnwn. ho led his men In support
of the attack which was In progress In
front (to tho south), and as he advanced
he fell shot through tho lungs. His
death was painless and practically In
stantaneous. Ho was burled with his
eight brother officers who fell the same
day In ono grave."
Writing to his father, R. C. Pegg, elec
trician at the Kingston-on-Thames Em
pire Theatre of Varieties. William Pegg,
leading wireless telegrapher on his Maj
esty's ship Undaunted (Captain Cecil
Fox) says:
"We engaged the enemy's four destroy
ers and finished them off nicely In about
an hour and twenty minutes rretty
smart work, eh? I wns on watch In tfle
wireless telegraphy ofllcc, but went up on
deck to watch the firing. It looked pretty
awful to see their ships go down, espe
cially one, whose magazine blew up In
one big flare. A lot of German snllora
were swimming, but, as you can guess,
we had no time to pick them up; we were
too busy. You know It would have been
quite possible to have got torpedoed
through stopping. As It was they tried
hard to torpedo us, but our skipper was
there every time, and simply altered our
course and v.e steamed past them. They
fired 10 torpedoes at our ship alone.
"The last to go took a lot of sinking, so
wo ordered one of our destroyers tho Le
gion, I think It was to take off her BUr
vlvors. She sent a boat to her, but when
the boat was being rowed alongside the
dirty cads opened fire nnd blew oft a
lieutenant's foot, and a seaman had Ills
leg blown off. The latter has since died.
Then we gave her a couple of additional
shots to go on with, and she finished. We
captured 30 Germans, Including one ofll
cer. We had all our boats smashed by
concussion from our guns, and missed a
cloud of shrapnel by a few yards. One
thing has been amply demonstrated, our
captain Is O. K., and everybody knows
It. The way he maneuvered our ship
around those torpedoes was marvelous."
A letter received by Mrs. Charrler de
scribing the gallant death of her husband,
the late Major P. A. Charrler, who waa
killed while magnificently leading the
Royal Munster Fusiliers, says:
"It Is Inexpressibly painful to me to
have to tell ou that the Major, our
splendid commanding ofllcer, fell In action
the day bcrore yeaterday while leading
his regiment most gallantly against over
whelming odds. The regiment was left
