The Kind: You Have Always Bought e (o AT Signature of New York, June 14.—Charles M. Schwab, claiming to nold a majority of stock in the Bethlehem Steel com- pany, reiterated that there is not the least danger of German Interests get- ting control of his company and breaking the contracts with the lBritlsh for arms and ammunition. It | has been established that more or | less directly the visit of Mr. Schwab to England last fall on the Olympic was due to the activity of German agents in this country in their efforts to .buy the Bethlehem Steel company. ‘Word of the attempis of the German agents to obtain control of the Beth- . lehem company soon found its way to England, and the result was that Mr., Schwab was invited to. London for a special conference with the war office. He renewed his acquaintance with Lord Kitchener, and his previ- ously formed intention not to sell ‘out was fortified with a guarantee of orders big enough to keep the big plant at Bethlehem going, steadily for eighteen months or more.

Officer Meehan fired several = more shots to draw the attention of other policemen in the neighborhood and Officer Lyon, ' Hellbers, Richardson and Woed hurried to the scene. Shot Through Elbow. Going to Petrauskass home they found Kaceaurauskas lying on the ground with a bullet hotel in his el- bow. He was arrested and charged with the assaplt and attempted bur- glary. A He pleaded not, guilty in court this morning. Petrauskas was taken tothe New Britaln general hos- pitdal where his wounds were dressed and he will be able to appear in court tomorrow.

The, promisguous shooting by the 'assault victim and the police attragted severa] hundered excited ‘citizens who thronged the streets, thinking that another murder had been committed. | The officers feel that they were ex- ceedingly fortunate that they were not struck by any of the bullets from Petrauskas’ gun as tne little messen- ger of death sped dangerously near their heads.
