SECOND Ï0 KRUPPS
British Arsenal at Woolwich Is
Immense Plant.
Munitions of War Being Turned Out
In Enormous Quantities to Supply
Forces Engaged In Franco
and Turkey.
When "Good Queen Bess," in 1585,
decided to establish a store of arms
and armor at the old Tower house, a
mansion in Woolwich Warren, adjoin
ing the then boggy and unhealthy
marshes of Plumstead, she little
thought that by so doing she was
founding Britain’s greatest arsenal,
which 330 years later would be giving
employment to 30,000 men, earning
more than >500,000 a week for making
munitions of war for the greatest con
flict the world has ever seen.
That small armory at the Tower
house, however, was the origin of the
Woolwich arsenal of today, which cov
ers 600 acres, and where guns of all
sizes, every form of military wagon,
shot, shell, torpedoes, cartridges, bul-
lets, war signals, life-saving rockets,
and high explosives are manufactured.
Even in the bygone days, however,
Woolwich figured largely in military
history. It was Prince Rupert who
protected the Warren with batteries
in Charles H’s reign, and other forti
fications, which have now disappeared,
were added by that king's successor.
The Dutch several times threatened
the dockyards at Woolwich and at
Chatam, while at the end of the sev
enteenth century two French priva
teers were captured off Woolwich.
It is obvious that the secrets of the
arsenal are most jealously guarded,
particularly at the present time. In
deed, the government, since the war
broke out, has adopted the precaution
of recalling all text-books about the
arsenal, although In_neare times, when
the average number of ile. employed
there is about 14,000, visitors of Brit
ish nationality, desirous of seeing
the arsenal, may do so by obtaining
an order from the war office.
It might be mentioned, however,
that among the most effective guns
manufactured at Woolwich are the
famous six-inch howitzers of which
the French speak so highly, while one
of the latest time-saving ideas Is to
dip military wagons bodily in huge
tanks of paint and hang them up to
dry.
Woolwich arsenal is really divided
into three great departments, called
respectively the Royal Gun factories,
the Royal Carriage department and
the Royal laboratory. It is in the lat
ter that every kind of experiment Is
made with explosives, and where of
ficers and soldiers learn their use and
effectiveness, while in the gun fac
tories, which are filled with machinery
of the best and most modern kind,
guns of all sizes are manufactured for
the army and tested over the exten
sive practice ranges which were for
merly the Plumstead marshes.
Apart from the actual workshops,
there are various important military
establishments at Woolwich. There
is the Artillery college, for instance,
which gives special training to offi
cers of the Royal Artillery In order
to fit them for appointments in the
manufacturing departments of the
arsenal. Then there is the Royal
Military academy, the oldest military
school in the kingdom, where men
destined for the Royal Artillery or
Royal Engineers begin their training.
The Royal dockyards at Woolwich
was closed nearly fifty years ago, but
it continues to be used as a military
store depot, and it is interesting to
note that it was the first, and for very
long the principal, dockyard In the
kingdom. The Great Harry was built
there in 1562, the Royal George in
1751, the Galatea In 1859, and more
than 200 other ships. And the curious
may spend many an interesting hour
in the Rotunda museum, which con
tains the finest collection of military
antiquities and models in the world.

Paris.—Since the Bank of France
opened special counters In Paris to
receive the people's hoarded gold a
few days ago the yellow coins have
continued to flow in an uninterrupted
stream. Depositors exchanged gold
for bank notes in the first four days
tn Paris to the extent of $3,000,000. No
reports from the provinces have been
made out.
Capitalists went to the bank in au
tomobiles, taking little bags of gold
to strengthen the credit of France and
help in the national defense. In the
early morning hours working men and
small employers hurried in on the way
to their labor to hand in their jeal
ously preserved savings.
First to respond to the call for
more gold were a street lemonade
seller who brought two napoleons
wrapped in a big rag, and a little
seamstress, who proudly gave her soli
tary coin.
All who take gold to the bank get

In addition to equivalent value in
paper money the Bank of France can

Minister Ribot asked the governor of
the Bank of France to open special
gold-receiving offices in Paris and its
provincial branches M. Palíala already
had taken steps to this end.
Inquiries in many competent quar
ters have led to the estimate that gold
money held privately In France
amounts to $700,000,000, or nearly
$80,000,000 less than the total gold re
servo now at the Bank of France.
Few of the depositors say: "I wish
to exchange goid," or, “I wish to pay
In gold.” All make the simple re-
mark: "I bring gold.”
Rich and poor alike are conscious
they are taking gold, not to the bank,
but for France.
It would be a mistake for the public
to imagine that it is making a sacri
fico In exchanging gold for notes, since
the gold is unemployed and therefore
unprofitable. The bank is naturally
anxious to keep as large a reserve as
possible so as to maintain fully the
credit of its paper issues and at the
same time enable the government to
pay for supplies from abroad in gold.
Another reason why the government
wishes the nation’s gold to be held In
the strong hands of the bank is to pre
vent it from being withdrawn pri
vately under false pretenses to find Its
way to the enemy by trickery. Ger
many and Austria are in desperate
straits financially, and are ready to
adopt the most deceitful practices to
get gold.

Inasmuch as at that period it was

necessary to mention the animal's pe
