It la Inconvelvable, In the mind of foreign observers, that Shatunc could. In any manner or means, raise the- hug* ransom, It is known that the powers of the world, who did -not hesitate to intervene on the occasion of the Boxer rebellloa, realise that It ac tion Is to bo taken, It must hi within a very abort time.

The prosecutor based fa against Baron Krupp von Bohlen and the directors on two main points: first, that prior shootings they had arranged that demonstrations should be hetd li case the works were occupied ant had propaganda material ready for hircutatlon among the demonstrav tioons; second, that during the demonstrations they made no at tempt to bring about order or t< i shut off the the factory sirens which called the men together.
