ing that Rear Admiral Seigel, the Ger.

called, is printed here as an item of sen

son in the French navy.
= The German ambassador confirmed
the report of the recall. but says it is
solely due to his appointment to a new
post.
Ensign Charles b. Ullmo. of the
French navy, was arrested in Toulon.
October IS. on the charge of spying.
An examination of his effects showed
him to been in possession of many
valuable documents and he afterward
confessed having distracted a secret
signal book and naval cipher.
An army reserve officer named Bur
ton was afterward arrested on similar
charges.
At Toulon, November 10. five alleged
ringleaders of an association of inter

been carrying on an extensive traffic
in military and naval secrets. were ar
rested and it was understood that war
rants. were issued for fifteen others.
THE authorities in Toulon yesterday
searched the local %postoffice and among
other things found a telegram appar-
emily sent by Ensign Ullmo to a Ger
