SHIRT FACTORY FOR WESTERLY New York Company With Four Other Plants to Open Branch in Former Pequot Property—News of Serious Gassing of Sergeant Joseph A. Chauncey—Melting Pot Dona- tions Yield $131. The mill property located in Still- manville, on the Pawcatuck side of the river, formerly owned by the Pe- quot Shirt company, and rart of the property recently purchased by Ar- thur L. Perry and Charles E. Sher- man, is to be turned over by Messrs. Perry and Sherman to Lustberg, Nast & Co. of New York, on a long term lease, This firm of well known shirt man- ufacturers, which owns and operates mills in New York, Brooklyn, York, Pa. and Middletown, Conn., will con- duct its Westerly Lranch under the name of the Lenox Shirt company. Though the firm has large war con- tracts for army shirts, it is the inten- tion of the management to confine its work in Westeriy to the manu- facture of high grade shirts for the cjvilian trade. The new indiistry is now leoking for the necessary labor with which to conduct its business. It would seem that there should be little trouble in obtaining the help reeded, since there are experiencgd shirt makers in the town, many of whom were fgrmerly emploved in the same plant by the Pequot Shirt company.

PRETENDED REPENTANCE OF BULGARIA IS KNOWN Allies Guarantee That Greece Will Be Freed From All Danger. Athens Aug. 7—Bulgaria is en- gaged in a peace offensive synchroniz- ing with the German movement in the same direction, accordang to An- e€xandre Carapanos, former minister of foreign affairs. She is playing par- ticularly uoon the friendly sentiment existent, at least in the past in Great Britain and France, he says. About Face, Bulgaria? “The rumors of a possible about- face on the part of Bulgaria have | been confirmed by M. Michalakopou- Jos, our minister of agricuit who has returned from London whither he declares went on a special mission.” M. Carapanos in an inter: in the Messenger of this city. garia is employing her old method of blackmailing her allies in order to obtain the largest possible sections of the territories of her neighbor: and is exploiting th> eterral philo- Bulgar illusion in America and Eng- land, a proceeding which has been employved, particularly of late” M. Carapanos re s the “deplora- ble conseqienges of -the volcanic il- lusions among the entente nations in the past, which weakened the cenfi- dence of Greece in the entent He says: “Three yeurs of war have shown clearly the artful and brutal policy of Bulgaria, as well as her ar- dent militarism, the purpose of which is to accomplish jon and to gain ultimate dominion by violence. It is to be hoped that by this time the powers know how to appreciate at its true value the pretended re- Fentence of Bulgaria.” He lays stress | on the necessity for the smaller Bal- kan allies seeing this question clari- fied. Ardent Wish of Greeks. “T believe;” he continues, “that T in- terpret the ardent wish of the Greek people, that it be no longer permitted to catch a glimpse of e unhappy \ D A tion for restoring natural color to tadedvare, . Gsadrot] and e s A Tt touse, Philo Hay Co., To get all these qualities 1n a mecca they have to use 7 American and 5 Turkish tobaccos—12 in all. They mix them, but mixing is not enough. Fo; 50 hours they pass moist heat through them all until 1 tobacco is made from 12. This is the famous Still-Blend process. This is how they get that full, rich flavor which has made Mecca the favorite cigarette of over a million rossibility of an insane bargaining to ssure the predominance of a preda- tory race which already has under its talons Greek, Rumanian and Serbian ropulation. One must not forget that the Greel army, receiving reinforce- ments daily, is fighting on the Mace- aonian front to revenge the innumer- able victims of Bulgarian atrocities and the destruction of Greek com- munities in Bulgaria. The Hellanic Races. Continuing, M. Carapanos speaks in favor of diplomatic. action to clarify the opinion of the allies on the nec- essities for the existence of the Hel- lanic races and the aims of Greece in this war. He says the allies are at yresent insufficiently informed con- cerning the rights of the Greeks. “Th» aims of the Greeks,” he says, “are inspired, not by egotism, but by the necessities of the existence of Greece and her independence in the community of nations.” In conclusion, M. Carapanos ex- presses the conviction that the rights of Greece and the equitable disposi- tion of the allies guarantee that she will be freed from dll danger.
