Denied Than Another One
Is Set AflOat.

LONDON, May 1s.-The German
scare grows apace and no sooner is one
wild rumor laid at rest than another
arises to try the nerves of the English
people. Last week there was the story
of a big German liner, filed with
troops which. it was alleged, had en-
tered the Humber. surveyed the posi-
bilities of making a landing and de-
parted without being sighted by the
British warships witk which the North
Sea is supposed to be closely dotted
while today Sir John Barlow, a liberal
member Of the house Of commons and
a well known merchant, startled the
country with the sensational suggestion
that the Germans have established
depot of arms containing $4,000 Mauser
rifles in the center of London. together
with 900 rounds of ammunition for
the use of $4,000 trained German sol
diers now employed IN various capacl-
ties in England. AS an evidence that
Sir John attaches some credcncc TO this
remarkable story. he has notified War
Secretary Haldane of his intention 10
question him concerning ii in parIia-
