MUNITIONS OF WAR
MYSTERIOUS AMERICAN SHIPMENTS. [UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT] NEW YORK, May 13. Cargoes of arms and ammunition consigned to Australia have been placed aboard twelve foreign vessels at Philadelphia at the instance o* the Wilmington Power Company, of the Delaware shipping circle. It is believed the cargoes are not intended for Australia* but for the United Stoics’ Pacific coast defences.
NOT FOR AUSTRALIA
[UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT] (Received May 14, 10.45 p.m.) MELBOURNE, May 14. Inquiries at the Defence Department show that the ammunition mentioned in the American cablegram is certainly not for Australia. Any such articles not manufactured locally are obtained from England.
