FEEDING THE ENEMY.
ACCORDING to a New York business man, two clever German schemes to smuggle contraband of war through Dutch territory have been discovered and put an end to. German agents gathered large quantities of copper in Holland and had it moulded into anchors. •' German barges and other iight craft coming down the Rhine to Dutch ports would leave *ttieir iron anchors and replace them with the copper implements, painted black, which ,would! be taken back on the return trip. This ruse was discovered by the British agents in Holland, and reported to the Dutch authorities.
