DIR. KARL GRAVES"
HAS LURID TALE
World Spy Tells of Kais-
er'S Plot to Win Russia
from Allies.

Three plainclothes men slipped up to
the house at 6S West 6Sth st. yesterday
and arrested a man who said he was
DR.. Arthur X. Crate. The charge was
that he had pawned a 1925 diamond
ring belonging to Ernest PltO, Of 67l2
Fourteenth av, Brooklyn.
In the West Side court the doctor eX-
planned that he was the victim of an
international conspiracy" on the part
of certain persons who were interested
in getting him locked in Jail. He ad-
mitted pawning the ring, but told
Magistrate Nolan that he was ready to
make good to the owner, and, in fact,
had tried to do so. PlitO, ne said, had
simply been scared until he had lost his
head, causing the arrest on suspicion
of grand larceny,
Magistrate Nolan was so impressed
with his story that he discharged him
upon his promise to give Plto the
money that was due him. The magis-
trate directed Detectives MCGOWAN,
Miller and Milligan, who had made the
arrest, TO accompany DR., Crate and see
that the promise was carried out.

This is all there il to the police court

a story of European intrigue and d.
plomacy, for Or. Crate" was really
DR.. Armgaard Karl Graves, once known,
according to his own estimate, as the
most dangerous spy in Europe. For
nine years he was one of the kalser's
personal secret agents, and was finally
sent 10 England by Germany to obtain
her naval secrets for the intelligence
department of the German Admiralty
His service with Germany had made
him so conversant with German Sc
crets, according to the story he tells,
that he became dangerous TO Germany
itself. Therefore, he was double
crossed" and betrayed into the hands
of the English, being arrested and
sentenced to eighteen months as spy.
The English, however, thought he
would be of more use TO them IN their
secret service. than in jail, and after
they proved ID him that he had been
betrayed by Germany he entered the
British service He was sent on a
mission TO this country, to spy on a
meeting the government had reason to
believe was to take place between an
agent of Germany and one Of Japan.

BRITISH WARSHIPS
OFF JERSEY COAST
Red Star Liner Clears for Cam
ada, Presumably to Serve
as Troopship.

Ttrouehout yesterday the British
battleship Glory and the cruiser Sut-
folk were observed cruising up and
down the New Jersey coast, from six
to ten miles of shore, The Glory
particularly was active in oyerhaullng
all vessels that came within her range
outside the three-mile limit
Twenty-Five vessels from foreign
ports arrived here yesterday, but as
German commerce on the seas is en-
tirely crippled the warships did not
intercept all Of them.
One vessel displaying the code sig
mails "E. c." was asked her name by
the Glory, and upon giving her code
signals was permitted to steam on her
course to the south. The Glory also
hailed the British vessel Bassam, in
bound, but permitted her to proceed.
It was learned last evening from a
highly authoritative source that the
Iyernia and Saxonia, of the Cunard
Line, and the Lapland, of the Red Star
Line; which is now under the British
flag, had been Communicated by the
British Admiralty to convey troops
from Canada to England and the Con-
tinent. The Admiralty has given orders
that the ships are to be in Halifax,
ready to be boarded by troops, not later
than a. m, Tuesday.
Stealing out Of port under the first
cover of darkness, and being met out
side the three-mile limit by the Brit
ish warships, the Cunarders steamed
out Of this port about z o'clock Thurs
day evening. Their red, blacktipped
tunnels had been painted dirty drab,
and an their lights were eXtinguished
except the regulation riding lights. To
the ferryboAt passengers who saw them
they resembled two huge freighters
more than Mediterranean passenger
ships. Few, if any, guessed their mis-
sion. They passed out of Quarantine
hours after other departing ships, and
attracted no attention there.
Although large numbers of British
army reserve men have been reporting
at the British consulate, II State st.
for the last fortnight, they have been
sent up TO Canada in patches every
night by train and we're not kept wait
ing here to 60 to Halifax by boat This
was done TO evade violation Of the
neutrality law.
Last night, while the two Cunarders
were headed toward Halifax, about two
score army reserves left the Grand
Central by train for the same port,
which they will reach before the ar
rival of the ship.
About 800 British army reserve men,
most Of whom had "seen service" in
the South African war, were at the
British Consulate yesterday ready TO
report for duty. The army reserve men
were put through an examination by
two doctors, and later they were given
tickets by the consul general to take
them By train to Halifax. Others will
receive tickets to-day.
1,arge numbers Of troops from Aus
tralia and Canada, augmented by Brit
ish army reserve men from all over the
United States, are now reported to be
making final preparations to embark.

RUSSIA BUYS BIG
ICE.BREAKING TUG

Fort William, Ont, Sept. 1.-THE
Russian government has bought from
the Great Lakes Towing and WrecNnR
Company a big ice-breaking tug, which
will leave Immediately for Montreal to
cross the Atlantic.
It is believed the ice breaker 3
wanted to assist in keeping open the
Russian White Sea port of Archangei,
which is just now of inestimablc value
because the Germans at kiel dominate
the naval situation in the Baltic.
1t is understood the purchase was
made through c. Medzikhoysky, com

bassy at Washington, who recently
called on Sir Robert Borden at Ottawa.
