LONDON, Nov 20 Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-The lives
of those officially designated as
"alien enemies" in England are not
cheerful these days. although they
are not in any danger of insults or
violence. The only outbreak against
them was the recent rioting in the
suburbs of London when several
German shops were smashed.
The rioters received a lesson likely
to put a damper on future outbreaks.
The ringleader was sentenced to one
wear in prison. two supporters to six
months, and eighteen others were re-
leased on bonds under condition that
they enlist in Kitchener's army.
Hostility against Germans has
been caused principally by the popu-
lar belief that all of them are active
or possible spies. The most recent
campaign in the newspapers has been
against the influential and wealthy
Germans, who play a powerful part
in British financial life. Naturalized
Germans, as well as those who retain
the allegiance of their birth, are in
cluded in the general cloud of sus-
picion.
German NJ. P's Dodge Sessions.
There are several German-born
members of Parliament, and by an
understanding among themselves
they are remaining away from West
minister during the war sessions.
None of them has yet resigned
few days ago several newspapers
started an agitation to have all male
Germans and Austrians confined in
concentration camps, and general
roundup was under way. TWO
causes nipped this movement IN the
bud. One was prompt retaliation IN
Germany. where all English residents
were gathered in by the police, and
the other was the difficulty of find
ing accommodations for the great
number of foreigners who are engloIe
for the concentration camps.
Spies are sharply divided into two
classes by British opinion. For the
German naval reserve lieutenant, Carl
Hans Lody, who was shot in the
Tower of London, the papers have
had nothing unkind to say. For a

Wonderful Stories of Spies.
None of the possible but unprovable
things has taken so firm a hold on
popular belief, except the passage OF
Russian hosts from Scotland to
France, as the wonderful doings OF
German spies. The authorities are
inundated with revelations and clues.
The whole east coast of England is
swarming with men who send nash
light signals to German ships at night,
If the stories of the newspapers IN
coast towns are correct.
One man sent the authorities most
detailed account of the code messages
transmitted by red and white lights
from the neighborhood of his home,
but the police have never been able TO
see these signals with the same eyes
as the discoverer Germans have made
excavations, have laid concrete foun-
dations for heavy guns at stratesical
points and have built cunningly con-
cealed roads from landing bases, ac-
cording to some of the most strongly
urged clues.
Behind the masses of suspicion and
rumor there is enough activity by the
Germans discovered from time to
time to keep the public in a state of
uneasiness. The suspicion that the
Germans have base for submarines
a supply station for aeroplanes ano
wireless apparatus in remote parts OF
| the Scottish coast may be founded or
| fact. The activities of the German
navy far from its own coasts, wh1cf
| have enabled it to scatter mines of
| the north of Ireland, and to sink the
superdreadnaught Audacious by mint
or submarine, furnish ground for thai
theory. The government has given i
sufficient belief to circulate placards
in Scotland offering a reward of five
hundred dollars for the discovery o1
any base for hostile supplies of petrol
or hostile wireless.

The German version of the man
ner in which the cruisers Goeben
and Breslau escaped the British
fleet by switching their running
lights" was recently related by
William G. Shepherd Following
. is the British version.
BY the United Press.
LONDON, Nov. 17(By mail to New
| York; e. c. T. Troubridge,
commanding the British Mediter-
ranean squadron, at the opening of
the war was ordered to permit the
German cruisers Goeben and Breslau
to escape from the Straits of Messina.
This is the information that comes
from an unquestionably authoritative
source, which explains how Admiral
Troubridge happened to be acquitted
when court martialed for permitting
the German warships to elude him,
The people of Great Britain are
still wondering, and will probably
! continue to do so for some time to
come, over the escape of the cruis-
ers. But the United Press Is now
able To solve-for America alone--the
mystery of the episode. For obvious
reasons, the story is not permitted to
be published in Great Britain. There
was much astonishment when Ad-
mfral Troubridge was absolved of
all blame in connection with the es.
| cape of the Goeben and Breslau His
| squadron WAS supposed to have the
| cruisers securely bottled up in Mes
sina harbor. Troubridge had been
| called home presumably in disgrace.
| That he would be dismissed from the
service, if nothing worse, seemed as
sured. His complete vindication was
inconceivable. Here is the explana-
| tion:
BY means of his log book and the
testimony of his flag lieutenant, his
| secretary and his wireless operator,
the admiral was able to prove absolu-
| tely that he had received a radiogram
in the British admiralty's secret code
worded and signed in regulation
admiralty form, ordering him to per-
init the Goeben and Breslau to escape
Assuming that the admiralty knew its
| business and that it probably had
other plans for the disposal of the
German vessels, he did not question
the order. If he had there would
not have been time to obtain correc-
tion from the admiralty The wire
| less message was received on the
morning of August 6. Under the laws
of neutrality the Goeben and Breslau
were to leave the Italian port that
evening. 1nere was nOtn1ng to do
but obey. The German ships left on
scheduled time without molestation
later entered the Dardanelles and
were purchased by the Turkish gov
ernment."
1t was not until he reached Eng
land that Troubridge learned that no
such order had been sent him by the
admiralty. 1t had come from the
Goeben itself, or from some wireless
station under German control. The
most surprising as we'll as battling
| feature connected with the incident is
| that only a week before the British
admiralty had changed it's wire e'ess
code, as it always does periodically
more often during war times. The
"order" Troubridge received was in
the new code.
The Incident furnishes the most
graphic illustration since the war be-
gan of the widespread ramifications
and the superb efficiency of the Ger
man spy system. The admiralty code
could scarcely have been obtained by
the Germans except through the
agency of a spy-or traitor-high up

Presence of Mind on Part
of MOtOrman Saves Boy
Almost Under Cars Wheels

To the presence of mind and a rare
exhibition of instant action on the
part of John Lindaberry, a motorman
on the Morris County Traction Com
pany's line, five-year-old Joseph Gu
bak, of Morris avenue, Springfield,
owes his life.
Yesterday, while Lindaberry was
running the trolley car which leaves
the corner of Morris avenue and Main
street, Springfield. at 1890 o'clock,
west bound, the boy jumped from the
rear of a wagon and directly in front
of the trolley car in Morris avenue.
The car fender knocked the lad down,
but by the instant application Of the
reverse lever Lindaberry stopped his
car. The boy was lying beneath the
front end of the car with a forward
wheel of the front truck against his
body.
When the motorman got the boy out
he was found to have escaped without
a scratch, his face and nose being well
coated with black grease from press
ing against the trolley rail. The pas
sengers on the car commended the
motorman for his quick action.

MAY HANG ELEVEN
IN SAME INSTANT
Arizona Murderers Will Prob
ably Be Executed on Long
Platform Dec. 10.

PHOENIX. Ariz., Dec. 1.-The
eleven murderers now in the State
penitentiary not only will be hanged
on the same day, December 10, but
probably at the same instant. At a
meeting today the State Board OF
Control will consider the erection of
a platform on which the eleven men
may be executed simultaneously by
pulling one lever.
Built into one of the prison build
ings is a concrete and steel trap.
, Only one man can be executed on
this at one time.
Warden Sims says that no man
can witness eleven executions in a
row, which would require five or
more hours, nor can one man be
found to spring the trap eleven
times. The law requires that the
warden see each execution.
Governor Hunt says that Sims OBJ
lection has not altered his determi-
nation to have all the hangings on
the same day. He is in favor Of
having them at the same instant.
On the desk of Governor Hunt are
the bound transcripts of evidence in
the cases of eleven condemned mur-
derers, who must die at the State

power which will no longer be his

is burrowing into the transcripts,

CALLS MONROE|SM
THING OF THE PAST
Taft's Declaration at Montclair
Causes This Conclusion by
Melbourne Paper.

MELBOURNE, Australia (via Lon
dom, Dec. 1.-The Melbourne Age,
referring to the views of former
President Taft concerning the Mon
roe Doctrine, expressed recently at
Montclair. N. j., and particularly his
statement that the United States
would not be compelled by the terms
of the doctrine to intervene if
Canada should be attacked by Ger
many, has this to say:
"If this Interpretation represents
the views of the government of the
United States, an event of first rate
importance to the entire civilized
world has taken place. If the Will
son government shares Mr.. Taft's
opinion it is very clear that Mon
roeism is a thing of the past and
that the United States has abdicated
the position she has been jealousy
guarding for a period extending up
wards of eighty years"

times clears the air like a shower and
makes one feel better. Even if such
an indulgence does induce wrinkles
there is some excuse for it. But moth

OF deliberately making ones self mis-
