The first'man arrested' was Paul Koenig, head of the Bureau of Investi- gation of the ' hamburg -American Line, and ,believed to be the head of the German secret service in this country. Koenig is :a well-to-do man, and has been oonspicnons in German circles. Ile took out his first papers in connection with his plait to become an American citizen ten years ago, but never applied for his second. The second man is Richard Emil Leyendecker•, retailer of art goods at 347 Fifth Avenue, and living at 640 Morris Avenue, the Bronx. He is a naturalized American citizen, and these arrests make the first instance where the so-called "hyphenated Am- ericans" have been arrested isr con- nection with onnection,with. the German propaganda. The third person arrested was Fred Metzler, alias F. R, Reimer; who was arrested in Jersey City. " These men are charged under sec- tion No. 73 of the Federal Criminal Statutes .with planning a military en- terprise or undertaking of••hazard against a country friendly, with the United States. The penalty on con- vied on is three ears in prison • I y p 60r or $3,000 fine, or both: The precise details of the alleged plot are withheld by the ,Federal authorities, but it understood that Koenig and Leyertdeckcr had employ ed spies, who went out from Buffalo and Niagara Falls to photograph the canal, prepare plans and make ar- rangements for blowing up the water- way at its most important -point, and that nitro-glycerine was to have been used as the explosive. *'Koenig and Leyende°Icer were in. Buffalo about four days, according to the ,authorities, and returned to' New York with the execution of the alleg- ed plot left in the hands of their agents. As far as its known by the Department of Justice, it was said, they still contemplated the carrying out of the plot when the arrests took place when the opportunity offered. With the arrest the special agents of the Department of Justice, under Wm, F. Offley incl Jos, A. Baker, and the detectives, under Captain Tenney, of the bomb squad, raided the offices, they packed up a great mass of ma tenial concerning the movements of German secret agents. Secret codes, which were changed every week to elude any person who might have been shadowing, them or listening over the telephones, also were found. These codes showed that when Koenig or ally -other of his men tele- phoned, to another "to meet me at south ferry," that meant Pabsts, 125th Street, or some other place. In ad- dition to these °odes there were found many other documents of great ins- portance, including maps' and draw- ings of the Welland Canal. uite"That'sQgtitee1aebed coldeyou have, HE SAW PRESENT old man.

Taking for his motto "Fas est ab hoste doseri," "It is allowable to learn even from an enemy,' he adapted what he thought was best from the German methods, and it is well known that he;. and his close friend, Sir Douglas Haig,. in making the Bri- tish Army the perfect machine that it is, bore well in mind the lessons to be gathered from the German ma- noeuvres. He objected strongly to the Ger- man close formation, holding it waste- ful and unwise.

A nurse recently returned from Paris said that soldiers who had lost Brutality to Girls. For a week and a half ,she will kept in an officers' dugout in the third line of trenches by German offi- cers. With the airs of a peasant sire managed to escape to the Russian lines. A young girl fainted on being sow- pelted to witness the brutal execution. of a friend in the public square of Kalish. She recovered her senses in an apartment where she was kept a prisoner for the satisfaction of Ger- man officers. She was rescued by Russian troops. The deposition of Private Nicholas Semenov Dorozhka furnishes details limb was perhaps far removed from their sight -lying somewhere along the battle front. A 'well-known English surgeon gives the reason for this peculiar sen- sation in an interesting article he has prepared on "Surgery in the Army." He says: "It is a well-known fact that not merely for a few hours but for weeks and even months after a limb has been cut off' or taken off, the person seems- to feel sensations in it, or ra- ther in the piace where it once was and is conscious of it in different posi- tions as though it were present. These sensations are very vivid for a time; the patient says that be feels his lost arm Lying by his side, or on his breast or even that he has a peculiar ting- ling or aching in the fingers that are gone, anti the like. "Precisely similar sensations are noticed when a leg has been amputat- ed. But the common idea that these sensations have anything to do with the lost limb itself is very childish, for this may be thrown in the fire im- mediately after removal, or otherwise destroyed or mutilated, and the pa- tient will know nothing of it if lie is not told. "The true explanation is very sim- ple. "We learn free infancy to asso- ciate certain local sensations with cer- tain muscles' movements. The nerve carries the impression of the sensa- tion to the brain, and the brain be- comes conscious of the feeling as be- longing to a particular muscular ac- tion.
