WASH TON, Sept'. 36. - The l most startling regelatloa of German Intrigue in the Mired States that has been made since the war began. Implicating well known, men wbe claim American citizenship and in- volving a Supreme Court Justice in New York city, was made Saturday night by the Government Committee of Public Information. The expose Is part of a systematic plan decided upon by the Govern- ment to present to the public the evi- dence of plots and Intrigue against the Interests of the United State* which have been traced to the Ger- man Em Those named In the Information given out last night as being oen- nelcted with the plots Include: Supreme Court Justice Daniel F. Cahalan, who 1■ known as an ardegt champion of the Irish cause. John Devoy, editor of The Gaelic American, a violent anti-British pa- per published In New York. Dr. Theo. Otto of Allentown. Pa., who is still practising, and claims to be an American citizen. George Sylvester Vlereck, editor of Vfereck's Weekly. Marcus Braun, editor of Fair Play and political leader among the Hun- garians or lower Second avenue, New York. J. F. Archibald, magazine writ- er, now said to be in Washington. Edwin Emerson. magazine writer, said to he in Africa. In this expose the Government officials make public letters, tele- grams, bank cheques, receipts for cash paid, and a wealth of memor- anda dating back to 1914, showing that the German Imperial Govern- ment was concerned, through Its re- presentatives here, in violation of the laws of this land. In a bulletin styled "Omclal Ex- pose," the Governmental committee Investigating German Intrigue in this country quotes numerous letters and extracts from letters seized by the Department of Justiee In April, 1916, In a raid upon the New York omee of Wolfe eon Igel, who was conduct- ing a pro -German and anti-American campaign, and working In close touch with Count von Bernstorff. The committee refers to a cipher tetter, with Interlinear translation, and In- scribed "Very secret." This letter, credited to Judge Cohalan, and ad- dressed to Count von, Bernstorff, says: "The revel ,lion In Ireland , can only be successful if supported from Germany: otherwise England will be able to suppress It, even though It be only after hard struggles. There- fore, help Is necessary. This should consist primarily of aerial attacks In England, and a diversion of the fleet, simultaneously with the Irish revolution. 'Then, 1f possible, a landing of troops, arms, and am- munition In Ireland, and possibly some officers from zeppelins. This would enable the Irish porta to be closed against England, and the es- tablishment of stations for subma- rines on the Irish coast, and the cut- ting off of the supplies 0? food for England. The eervteee of the revolu- tion, therefore, may decide the war." This letter was signed "5132 8167 0230." Situation In Greece, ATHENS, Sept. 25. - Premier Yenizelos, who has returned to Athens much benefited from a rest cure at HypaU, in an interview Sun- day said: The general trend of affairs is satisfactory. The situation le well is hand. The problem of food supplies. however, is offering great obstacles, especially In the matter of Inland communication. But the measures which have been adopted are reliev- ing the existing dlstrese whteh amounts to something approaching famine. "The results of recent recruiting In the army exceeded expectations. This Indicates that the poison which the late .egime tried to introduce among the youth of the country is being eradicated and the future it hopeful."

The monthly meeting of the Red Cross Society took place in the jury room of the court house on September 17, with Presi- dent Reynolds in the chair. Among the communications was a letter from Mrs. Jones-Bateman, now a V. A. D. in the Herne Bay military hospital, from which the following are extracts. "The matron approached rhe one day last week, to know if 1 thought you would send them some things like last year, as they needed or would need them during the cold months, and the things that came from you last year were much nicer and better made than anything they had before or since. A list was brought me last night as (oLows:i Flat envelope swabs, 3x3, 4x4, tixli, sin - 40QO of each - tied in bundles of six, 6 doz. pairs of gloves with fingers, 4 don. scarves,ll doz. pairs socks. 4 doz. pneumonia jackets, 1000 knitted swabs for washing. It seems a tall order, but no doubt you do as we do now -think in hundreds and thousands." Mrs. Eliot stated that the Ahmeek Chapter had decided to provide the 1000 knitted washcloths, and on motion of Mrs. Eliot and Mrs. Colborne it was decided to grant Mrs. Jones-Bateman's request a• far as possible. The resignation of the treasurer, Dr. Ilolmes, who, owing to illness, wished to he relieved of this duly, was then pre- sented. It was decided to leave the matter over until the annual meeting, Miss Clifford being appointed deputy treasurer in the meantime. After some discussion it was arranged to hold the annual meeting in the jury room of the court house on Monday, October 15, at 14 p. m. The reports of the working committees were as follows: Yarn committee - expenditure 8144.30. shipment '216 pairs socks, value 6216.00; sewing committee -- expenditure $132.54, shipment 17 day shirts, 17 dressing gowns, '24 suits of pyjamas, value 6214.00; Maple Leaf Chapter -expenditure 81.5.00. shipment 67 towels, value 82(.15.
