' later Declares Ten New
1 Arsenals to Be Estab
lished. LONDON, Julr 29
The House of contmona taut nlht de
cided to adjourn from today until Sep
tember 14, but before this dealslon was
reached the members henrd Minister of
Munition's Llbyd-Oeorge make the follow
Ihtr charges
The munition contractors are behind
time In their contrncts
Labor Is not keeping to Its agreement
to suspend trade union rules during the
imergency
Tour-fifths of the munition-making ma
chinery Of England Is not employed full
time and only one-nfth of It Is wofklns
at night
There cannot be an Increased output
from old works for weeks and perhaps
months
From the other side of the ledger were
entered the following credits!
That the Government Is shortly to es
tablish 10 new national arsenals In ad
dition to the If co-operative factories al
ready under Government control
Forty thousand volunteer workmen are
at work and 100,000 are to be utilized,
amons these being skilled workmen who
are to be brought back from the front.
A substantial Increase In the output of
shells and other munitions from new es
tablishments will largely be made within
a few weeks
Commons adopted the Government's
proposal to adjourn without going to the
division lobbies and the Government It
self emerged from a fiery assault un
scathed and with the approval of a ma
jority of the. members
Sir Henry Daltlel, Liberal member for
Klrkealdy, and Sir Arthur B. Morkham,
Liberal from the Mansfield division or
Nottinghamshire, were the chief critics
of the Government.
Sir Henry explained that ho was not
satisfied with the progress of tho Allies'
troops In Flanders, Insisting that the
great advance promised for the Bprlng
and BUmemr had not been realized. He
asked why. In the Dardanelles, there had
been a bombardment by the Allies' fleet
without the co-operation of tho land
forces.
Frankly anonunclng that the confidence
ha had had In the Government nine
months ago had been displaced. Sir
Henry also asked If any one In authority
In the War Office had been "cashiered"
for the failure to supply sufficient muni
tions. Tho Government's delay In using
asphyxiating gaB ngalnst the Germans
also was criticised, and the Government
also held responsible for the discontent
among the workers, due to Its failure to
deal with the question of food supplies.
Markham'B contribution was that tho
public had lost confidence In the War
Office, which had proved "miserably In
efficient in Its conduct of the war."
British self-sufficiency, which has con
sidered it as certain slnca the outbreak
of tho war that everything would come
out all right, received a rude Jolt when
Minister of Munitions Lloyd-George
spoke.
Coollv, almoBt coldly, the Minister In
formed tho Commons that the contrac
tors for munitions are already woefully
bohlnd In their, contracts nnd that It will
ho weeks or months before the country
can hope for any substantial output from
new works. Four-fifths of the machinery
In the armanjent works Is not working1
full time, and only one-fifth Is being used
at night.
It was altogether a discouraging pic
ture drawn by the speaker. That af
fected only present conditions; for the
future he was much moro optimistic He
caused a. cheer when he Announced that
at least 90 men, all first-clss business
men, had volunteered their services for
the Ministry of Munllons, the majority
of whom would serve without pay These
men, he said, received salaries regularly
greater than the Government could afford
td pay.
In glrlna; the details for the establish
ing of 10. new arsenals, Mr Lloyd-George
said that the scheme had originated in
his recent conference with the French
Minister of Munitions at Boulogne-sur
Mr, when the chief officers of the Brit
!ah and French artillery met and com
pared notes This hew program, he ad
mitted, would very severely tax the en
gineering resources of the country for
Aome months and the exports of the ex
isting armament firms He would start
to equip the arsenals' nnd the nw muni
tion volunteer army, and skilled men
brought home from the front would pro
vide the InbOr.
He also Intended to employ women
much more freely than heretofore The
new establishments, he thought, would
be ready In a few weeks They would
onable England to equip her armies In
such a wa that the best armies equipped
would be unable to claim the slightest
supetlorlty.
PRESIDENT'S PALACE AT PORT AU PRINCE, HAITI
GERMANY PROMISES
TO SEND ARMY THROUGH
SERVIA TO TURKS' AID
Reinforcements for Otto
mans Fighting on Galli
poli Peninsula Pledged
Within Month, Enver
Pasha Tells Troops.
ATHENS, July 29
Enver Pasha Issued this message to his
troops on the Galllpoll Peninsula before
the last big attack:
"Soldiers, you will right will all your
strength. At least, you will resist as long
as possible, for I can promise you thjt
within a month's time I shall be able to
send you to jour homes. Servla cannot
now last longer than a month. Within
that time the German armies will crush
her and will come to our aid."
Great pressure has been put on the
Germans by the Young Turks to make
them fulfil a promise to Rend German
armies through the Balkans to tho as
sistance of tho Turkish forces. The
Young Turks regard the achievement of
that plan as the only liopo for the Turk
ish Empire In Europe. A prominent mili
tary expert who has Just completed a
tour of tho Balkan States and who has
lately been In Austria saya that BUch an
effort will be the next jrreat move on tho
pait of the Austrlans and Germans
Should this cross move be made It will
have Immediate and Important results In
this corner of Europe. It is permitted
to say that counter-balancing events nro
moving rapidly, and the Teutons' plans
may quite possibly be nipped In the bud
by a surprising move, of which tho pub
lic should hear at an early date.

LONDON. July 23.
The Earl of Crewe. Lord President of
the Council, replying in the House of
Lords yesterday to a question by Vis
count Bryce concerning the killing' of
Christians In Armenia by the Turks, said
that Information received at the Foreign
Office showed that such crimes lately had
Increased, both In number and In degree
of atrocity. They Included, he declared,
both wholesale massacre and wholesale
depredations, which were carried out un
der tho guise of enforced evacuation.
Similar crimes, he added, had been com
mitted by the Turks against the Chris
tians on the Persian border
The presence of the Germans nnd the
Influence they exercised had been, the
Earl of Crewe contlnud, "an absolute and
unmitigated curse, both to the Christian
and Moslem populations." They have
6hown a most complete cynical disregard
for the country and the people who in
habit It.
Foreigners Said to Have Been Carry
ing Loaded Weapons.
ALBANY. July 23. Governor Whitman
yestetday ordered Sheriff William H.
Stltt, of Little Falls, to disarm members

One provides that only regularly consti
tuted bodies of men such 03 the militia

ESCAPED LUNATIC DESTROYS
STATUARY IN ITALIAN CHURCH
Sent Back to Philadelphia Hospital
After Hard Tussle.
"Little Italy" today was thrown Into
a fever of excitement when an escaped
lunatic from the Philadelphia Hospital
took refuge In a church at Uth and
Christian streets, and was overpowered
only after a violent struggle with three
policemen.
The man. Frank Ranagano, 22 years
old, slipped out of the hospital during
last night's storm, and, after hours of
wandering, appeared at his former home,
733 Christian street. .His cousin, Julia
Ranagano, who was In bed, was fright
ened when he clambered through a second-story
window and demanded iv.
She called her father, Joseph Ranagano,
and brother Ralph, who quieted him.
His uncle took him to a store at 8th
and Christian streets to replace his
muddy clothing with a new suit.
While he was changing his clothes
Ranagano slipped out, and, followed by
a large crowd, ran Into a church at Uth
and Christian streets. Ranagano was
demolishing a candelabra and statuary
when Policeman Winters, of the 7th and
Carpenter streets station, entered the
church and dragged him out. Winters,
who was hardly a match for the map,
was being handled roughly when Po
licemen Gallagher and Lints came to
his rescue.
Ranagano was committed to the hos
pital nine months ago.
