Captain Bernard Trench and Lieuten-
ant vivian Brandon. English army
officers. charged With spying upon
the German Notifications Mt Borkum

OF the empire.
The imperial public prosecutor laid
before the court an Indictment charg
ing the prisoners with having worked
az spies fot many months on the is
land of Borkum, before their arrest
in August. He said they had visited
all the naval stations and fortified
places along Germany's North Sea
coast line and obtained a vast amount
Of valuable information, with the In
tention of giving 1t to the English
war office.
Aside from their English counsel.
Sir william Bull no English adyi-
sors will be permitted the, prisoners.
nor will any Englishmen be allowed
In the court room. Germany is taxi
ing this precautien on the theory that
much OF the alleged valuable informa-
ton obtained by Trench and Brandon
will develop at the trial. Justizrath
Won Gordon. of Berlin. and DIR. Otto,
Of Leipzig. are assisting in the de-
Tense by appointment OF the German
government.
In the event OF the conviction OF
