DUTY OF A MILITARY ATTACHE.
Intelligence Gained by Methods Not
Open and AbovebOard.

Intelligence Gained by Methods Not
Open and Aboveboard.
The chief and acknowledged props OF
our (Englishl Intelligence" are the
military attaches to our various minis
tries abroad. says Mai Arthur Griffith,
in the Cornhill. Theoretically they
have no means of acquiring knowledge
other than the official; practically they
are. OF course, aided by their powers of
observation. the trained professional
skill which can note at a glance things
most worth knowing such as the hand
ling of artillery. the spe& and weight
Of cavalry charge, the probable value
OF some new order Of attack"
The attache. to be really useful. must
also be a persona grata to the foreign
officers of the country in which he is
serving, and he often learns much from
/ the camaraderie of the cloth and the
/ free discussion of measures and meth
DDS. All this work is open and above
board. We may not inquire too closely
whether or not intelligence is gained by
other means, but ii is pretty certain
that there are plenty Of secret agents
in every capital eager to sell it at q
price, and often very pertinaciOus in
their offers OF some particularly val
liable bit of news.
The game is seldom worth the candle
and it is exceedingly dangerous. No
many years back an attache OF the
English embassy to great power Is
said to have narrowly escaped arres
through intrigue with one of these un
avawoable persons. Possibly the for
eign government would not have pro
ceeded to extremities with one of tn
corps diplomatique. but the pressur
must have been very severe, for tn
story ran that the attache found pass
port waiting for him at his chanNry
and was hurried across the frontier il
rather undignified haste. The rumo
said that military attaches Of other ma
tionalitles were involved in the scrap'
and also had TO fee the country.
