tary attaches of the German embassy,
indicated today that the state department
would conduct a wide investigation
of foreign consular officials in the
['nited States suspected of unneutral
activities.
Should it be shown that any of the
officials have acted improperly . their
exequaturs either will be cancelled or
;he state department will find other
neans of having them discontinued in
t 'n air
?HC CU\/J uIVIU.
Any action that may be taken undoubtedly
will have the full approval
>f President 'Wilson. It was said at
:he state department tonight that no
decision had been reached is the case
)f Alexandre von Nuber, German consul
general at New York, whose name
was mentioned in connection with
Boy-Ed and others.
It became known today that England
might refuse to grant safe passage for
Boy-Ed and von Papen, because they
are not civil attaches.
The attaches, it was pointed out
would be free to proceed to Mexico.
It was made clear at the state department
today that to have the attaches
remain in this country even as
private citizens would be undesirable.
The government has ruled that they
are persona non grata.
The state department made it clear
that none of the information or suspicion
upon which it acted had been
submitted to Count von Bernstorff, the
German ambassador. The department
held this unnecessary. It was pointed
Mi + t nol rommcf fnr i V? rv TT*O 1

Df the attaches could hardly become
the subject of diplomatic negotiations.
Secretary Lansing said he had received
a stenographic report of the testimony
and remarks of counsel in the
conspiracy trial of the officials of the
Hamberg-American line in New York
and that it showed that Assistant United
States District Attorney Wood had
not gone as far as press dispatches
indicated in his references to Capt.
Boy-Ed. Secretary Lansing was of the
opinion that some accounts of the
trial which reached Washington were
"made of whole cloth."
The references in the government
attorney's speech most complained of
applied not to Boy-Ed, but to other
persons, the secretary said.
Capt. Boy-Ed came to Washington
todaiy from New York and conferred
with Count von Bernstorff.
It became known today that a number
of attorneys, among them counsel
for the defense in the trial of the
Hamburg-American officials, had called
at the state department late yesterday
and asked to see Secretary Lansing.
The secretary declined to receive them
and they were directed to the department
of justice. There they conferred
with Assistant Attorney General Warren,
who has charge of the investigation
of neutrality cases. The purpose
of their visit was not disclosed.
Mntiquity of Shorthand.
Shorthand is apt to be looked upon
as an essentially modern art.f The
predecessors of Pitman ? Byrom in the
eighteenth century. Mason in the seventeenth?are
dim and distant figures
beyond which it seems useless to venture.
Cicero dictated his orations to
his freed ma 11. T Tullius Tiro, and
was iuconsolabie when temporarily deprived
of his services. He complained
in a letter to a friend that, while "Tiro
takes down whole phrases in a few
signs. Spintharus (his provisional substitute)
only writes in syllables." We
need not. however, suppose that the
"notae Tironianae" were actually invented
by the freedman in question.
As M. Guenin points out. the Romans
created very few of the arts of peace,
contenting themselves, as a rule, by
rt fr.im thia {Jrppks. M. Guenin,
1U5 UVUi % "V
however, indicates the banks of the
Nile as the cradle of the art.
Blunderbuss.
In using the word "blunderbuss" we
unconsciously imply a sense of disparagement
for the shooting powers of
our forefathers contrasted with the
precision of the modern rifle. The
word itself has. however, a terrible
enough meaning and disdains all connecton
with "blunder." "Blunderbuss,"
fact, as we have it, is ?
strange corruption?perhaps not alto
gether untinged with the sense ana
sound of "blunder"?of the old Dutch
word "donderbuss," which can be literally
translated Into the English
"thunder box" or "thunder barrel."

MILLION EACH HOUR
Half of Population of Country Eigaged
in Preparing Munitions
For Armies.
Ottawa, Dcc. 4.?Half the population
of England is engaged in procuring
war munitions to aid the 3,000,000 men
in the fighting lines of war that is
costing Great Britain $1,000?000 an
hour the Hon. R. H Brand, financial
agent of David Lloyd-George, minister'
of munitions, told business men a,
luncheon here today. Those present
included the Duke of Connaught, Premier
Sir Robert Borden and Sir Wilfred
Laurier.
"The war," said Mr. Brand, "will be
a long one and no one can tell how
much more England, Canada and other
par's of the empire may have to do
before it is successfully ended, but of
all the things to be done to win financial
operations are the most important."
National economy will win the war,
the speaker said. He urged Canadians
tn nrar^tiro tho mnsf rieiri prrvnnmv fn
provide the greatest possible assistance
to Great Britain. He expressed
appreciation of Canada's decision to
make financial advances to England
and promised that all such loans would
be repaid soon after the close of the
conflict.
