New Orleans Police Tell of
the Alleged
Plot
RUMOR OF A
CONFESSION
Internal Machine Found in
Prisoners Posses
sion

| New Orleans. Dec. 24.--Confession by
one of three Germans arrested here has
revealed what the police believe is 81
gantic plot TO destroy British and French
ships carrying passengers as well as
/ horses and mules or munitions OF war by
placing on board internal machines
equipped with clockwork. Hans Halle,
aims Frank Holm, alias Holmes, the man
who confessed, says it was the success OF
the Mcnamara plot to destroy the Los
Angeles Times building that inspired HIM
with the idea of bringing the Internal
machine to the assistance of modern war
fare.
A bomb of great explosive power was
found completed in Halle's hotel room
It was to have been sent to-day through
the parcel post to New York for ship
ment on board the Chicago of the French
line. 1t was first reported that deadly
bombs of the Halle variety had been
placed among the cargoes OF several ships
now on their way to Europe, and while
Halle's story is in some respects too I'M
probable to he credited, several OF the
ships named by him are at sea and have
not been heard from.
Halle SAYS he hoped to achieve fame
bv his success in sinking ships sailing
under flags that are hostile to his coun-
try. and he had no doubt a suitable
monetary reward would come to him
also. He described to the police the ma
chine found in his room and told how ii
could be placed aboard ship without
danger of discovery The bomb taken
al rp
and held enough explosives to wreck a
dreadnought.
The mans story was varied by some
He first said be had shipped a
bomb to New York that was timed to
explode six and a half days later, when
it would be on the Chicago several hun
dred miles at sea. He raised an alarm
by declaring that the Rocha mbeau was
off the Lizard and had been heard from.
he admitted that part of his statement
was untrue.
Besides Halle, George Sommers. bar
tender well known in New Orleans, has |
also confessed to his part in the scheme |
He says he knew the machines were be,
ing manufactured, and he is said to have |
admitted that he knew they were to be 1
placed on ships to be exploded at sea.
'onrad Brinckman, another German, is |
held as material witness.
The story of the plot has recalled the |
fact that there was fire on the British |
steamship Rembrandt from Baltimore I
when she was off the Virginia cspes on
Nov. 3. The captain said some German |
night have fired his vessel All but sew
IN OF 500 horses persisted in the fire.

This was the declaration yesterday of
Representative Hobson, champion of ma

the House late Tuesday night OF his
"dry" resolution.
The "drys' were iubilant over having

The next move of the white ribbon

record The Sheppard resolution, sim
liar TO the Hohson proposal in the House,
is now pending in the Senate. While
the rejection by the House makes sub

YUAN GOES BACK TO
GOLD OF THE MANCHUS
He Revives the Worship of Heaven at
the Winter Solstice--,Appears as
Son of Heaven.

Pekin, China, Dec. 24.-President Yuan
Ski Kai at sunrise yesterday appeared
before the Altar Of Heaven in the Chi
nese city and revived the worship of
Heaven at the Winter Solstice, an OBJ
sevance neglected since the passing of
the Manchu dynasty in 1911. In this
the president of the republic took upon
himself function and rite which in the
past always has been reserved to the
emperor of China in his capacity of
"Tien Tsz" or Son Of Heaven. The pres
ident yesterday worshipped at the fla
nous circular altar, the most imuortant
OF all Chinese religious structures. It
is located in a sacred park, three miles
from the palace of the emperors and is
surrounded by sacred buildings. This al
tar formerly was regarded in China as
the centre of the universe.
Yuan Shi Kai submitted bill to the
Chinese administrative council in Jan
uary of this year prescribing the worship
OF Heaven and of Confucius for the presi-
dent OF China. and the measure was pass
by the council This act was regarded
as tantamount to establishing a state
religion for China. During the delibera-
tions of the council it was set forth that
the president Of the republic should wor-
ship at the Temple of Confucius and ct
the Temple of Heaven annually, as had
been tho custom of the Chinese emperor.
Yesterdays function appears to be car
rying out of the purposes then set forth.
The president was instructed on these
religious occasions to wear the robes of
the high dukes designed during the Chow
dynasty in the year 1922 y. c. 1t was
at thi. time taken for GRANTED that all
the old-time rites woull heneeforth be
established during Conf0oianism as the
state religion. as it was before 1911.

WEISS REYNOLDS IMPROVING

Chas. Reynolds, deputy sheriff of
Audubon county, has Just received
word from his brother at Guthrie
Center, that Wess Reynolds, his nep-
hew who was recently injured by
jumping from a train, was still in
the hospital at Omaha and in SER
ious condition. The injured man
is about 80 years of age and is the
son of Simpson Reynolds. Young
Reynolds was occupying a sleeper on
a return trip from South Dakota
where he is interested in land prop
osition. In his sleep he thought he
was jumping from barn window
and instead he jumped from a NOV
ing train going at a rate of 40 miles
an hour. 1t is wonder that he was
not instantly killed, but he sustained
broken arm which was operated on
Tuesday and broken leg. His knee
cap was torn off and the bone near
the thigh badly splintered. The at
tending physicians believe Wess will
recover but he is still far from being
out of danger.
