Some of the local shops have no supplies now, Mid a well-known grocer, and it i* only a qlleOtiOn of t.ime before aJl will be in the same position.

OUR 'MUNITIONS »•> OUTPUT ONE HUNDRED TIMES CREATED. INCREASE TO BE MAINTAINED Paris, Tuesday.—An important hiter- view, which throws muctv light on the present situation regarding the production of munitions in England, has been granted by Mr. Lloyd George to M.

Taking the rigure 1 as re- presenting the output iu September 1914," said the Minister, H the figure for July 1915 is fifty times greater. It will be a hundred times greater in August, and from then, onwards the curve will con- tinue to rise surprisingly. Since my ai-i-i-, al at the Ministry of Musrtions 1 have established 16 new fac- tories and have decided to open 10 more to work exclusively for war. Twelve thousand skilled workmen who bad enlisted have been recalled from the front to the factories. Forty thousand new workmen have been taken on by j manufacturers in accordance with my in* structions." Energy and will," says the corre- spondent, are radiated by Mr. Lloyd George's personality. It is easy to see also that he does not lack that quality which is often wanting in Englishmen—enthu- siasm."

HINTS TO ARGENTINA I General Carranza Talks of Another War. Buenos Ay res, Tue-clay.— General Car- ranza has telegraphed to the President of the Argentine Republic protesting against the interference of the Washing- ton conference in Mexican affairs, adding it would be an unpardonable error should Argentina contribute to a. war between the two nations.

Iron nails will be sold to be hammpred into the body of the statue. The proceeds will go to charitable objects.

I A BELGIAN ADVENTURESS Described by the French authorities as an adventuress, and probably dangerous from a national point of view. Marietta Van Weyenbergh. aged 22. a Belgian, was sentenced at Surrey 91Jartn Sessions on Tuesday to twelve months' imprisonment in the second division for having stolen a E,10 hank note from the house of Major Gordon Watney at Weybridge, where she was a guest.

There are persistent reports in Con- stantinople of a split betAveen the Ger- man officers and the Turks, and it is also reported that Gen. Liman von Saunders has become demented. Germans, overheard talking in a beer shop in Pera, said the Turks could not resist much, longer in the Gallipoli Pen- insula. It is fruther ronnrmed that an outside committee of the Party of Union and Progress and their immediate friends, alli Turks, are sick and tired of the war, and are turning against the Germans. According to private information re- ceived here on August 7th. the Deutsche Levant steamer Sayros and three Bos- phorus steamers, laden w:th coal from ileraclca, have been sunk by the Russians. These vessels are probably included in the number recently destroyed and already reported from Petrograd.

RUSH OF RECRUITS I Magnificent Response in I South Africa. Capetown. Tuesday. The rush of recruiting, which was so marked at. the opening this morning, was continued through the day. and the response is generally considered most satisfactory. The recruits who have offered themselves are. so numerous that the medical ofifcers, have been unable to complete their duties.] A notable feature of the recruiting has been the number of old campaigners who I have interviewed the authorities, all being past the age limit.

4,000 MILES BY WtREiFSS I It is reported from Tokyo that on July 7 wireless communication was success- fully inaugurated between the new sta- tion at Funabashi, near Yokohama, and the Hawaiian Islands.

THEWAR I I Resume of To-day's I Messages. Leader" Office, 5.0 p.m. An overwhelming rush of recruits for the Oversea Contingent has been experi- enced in South Africa. A peak, 10,000 feet high, has been cap- tured by the Italian Alpini. The Austrian position is said to be serious.

AIRSHIPS FROM CANADA I A su-ggestion has been made to the ¡ Montreal authorities that the city join in I a Diovouient spreading throughout the Empire, and contribute £ 1,500 for the purpose of building an aeroplane for war service, the latter to be named after the city. The suggestion favours the idea of a league of cities in the matter of sup- plying airships for use of the armies in the field. The amount of money that has been subscribed in Canada for machine guns, and all sorts of military accessories is not realised in this country, and the list will probably never be fully compiled.

SOLDIERS FOR CANADIAN HARVEST I Leave of absence for one month is to be granted to non-commissioned officers and men on the Expeditionary Force still in Canada for the purpose of enabling them to take part in harvesting work. Leave will be granted upon certain con- ditions. For instance, the privilege will be extended only to well conducted and deserving men. They will be required to wear during thedr absence their w or Icing suits, lea-ving their uniforms and equip- ment with their respective units. This should go a considerable way towards solving the problem of shortage of labour on the Canadian harA-est fields for which I the war has there, as here, been respon- sible.

I MAGISTRATES' CLERK AND THE BABY I Perhaps the quality (or was it the quantity?) of loquacity displayed during I the hearing of a Police Court case in Swansea on Wednesday was not strained, hut certainly the patienof of the magi- strates and of Mr. J. W. Thorpe (deputy magistrates' clerk) was. It was a case of alleged abusive language, and the parties were of the tallcatin-e sex. But in addition to the ladies there was a baby, who, at spasmodic intervals, de- monstrated to its unwilling audienoo a capacity for making noiee that was pro- digious. Mr. Thorpe, probably taught in the school of experience, was often success- ful, managing it with dexterous swings I of the eyes in restoring order.

THE GUNS OF FLANDERS. I Mr. Miller Christy, Broom Wood Lodge. Chelmsford, in the course of a letter to the Press, says that the gnns can be heard from his house in Essex. They resemble dull thuds, which one seems to feel rather than to hMr!' Mr. Christy's hlHl1S8 stands high and is Ion miles from Ypres, 60 of which are across the water. Another correspondent, writing from East Mailing, Kent, notes that on Sunday afternoon and again on Monday distant firing was heard. Mailing, on the Med- way, lies four miles north of Maidstone, and it is suggested that the sound is con- ducted by the river.

MACHINE CINS FROM SOUTH AFRICA Pretoria, Tuesday.—In reference to tbe supply of munitions and machine guns, it is officially announced that it is not a question of money, but of rapid and efficient manufacture. The Defence Force Headquarters an- nounces that the feasibility of manufac- turing machine gunjs within the Union is being im-estigafed. The Government sug- ge8Ü¡ that money 811('rjlwd or intended to be subscribed for machine guns, should be diverted to the Goverwr-GeneraLs Oversea Contingent Fund for augment- ing the aMowances of 4eppndent?s of men serving with the watingeat.
