WHAT AN|R'IC

AZ o'clock In the morning Of
November 9. when tho fog still hung
over the tower Of London. Carl
Hans 4cdy. the German navhl Lieu

men were aiming their guns straight

2ed and six were not. The twelve
men did not know whose weapons
held the fatal charges. 1t is not
known now which six did the killing.
an that ID known is that six bullets
found icdgment in Lody's breast
and his head sank forward.
The physician pronounced him
dead.
Lody had been tried by court
martial and convicted OF communi-
eating with German authorities to
the detriment of England. 1t Is a
long time since the question of the
rights of spies has been raised in
England, but owing to the fact that
England had suffered from several
ships being blown up and that the
menace Of an attack from the air
was constantly confronting the gov
ernment 1t was thought he should
4 die as a warning to other spies.
The sinking OF the Audaclous was
known TO the court-martial, al
though 1t was not announced to the

porters were barred from the trial
room. Those who have read some
Of the reports pay high tribute to
Lody's clearness of expression and
the acuteness of his observation.
Taken as a whole, it is said that
his data form one of the most re-
markable exhibits ever brought to
the attention of Scotland Yard.
Lody was about Sc years old, but
looked younger. Though a native
OF Berlin he had travelled widely
and he. spoke with almost an
American accent. This, together
with the fact that he looked like
an American, was doubtless the
main reason he was sent to En-
gland as spy: He had spent
much time here before. but on the
! last occasion he came in August,
shortly after hostilities were de-
clared with Germany. The intelli-
gence department Of the War Of
flee soon got wind of his actions.
and he was watched. 1t was dur
ing this shadowing that he insisted
he was Charles A. Inglls, an Amer
lean. In this role he even went to
the police and complained that he
was being followed.
This for a time threw OF his
pursuers, but the espionage was
later renewed. and in October he
was arrested. The trial, in which
English counsel defended him, was

world at large. There Is mystery
in the sinking Of the battleship in
the Irish Sea. It is not believed a
German submarine could have
reached the spot
The word then was passed that a
spy had enlisted in the English
Navy and sunk the ship, The fear
of spies in England IS terrible. That
probably determined the court
martial to kill the spy. killing of
spies has been customary from the
earliest times. Spies were not con-
sidered honorable men in ancient
times because they CID not bravely
enter the battle.
As the court-martial was hold so
remote from the scene Of fighting

first whether tho extreme penalty
would be inflicted. It was said even
that certain members OF the Cab
met favored life imprisonment. But

appealed to the British imagina-
ton.
No Englishman laments his
death, but all the newspapers pay
him the tribute of dying bravery.
He had accepted the risk and he
paid the penalty.
But now comes new question.
Through the strict censorship
comes the information that Lody
was not discovered by ordinary SOL
diers. 1t is rumored in London
that Lody made the great mistake
Of confidiug in a woman, and that
I woman was an American. Lcdy was
passing himself Off as an Ameri-
can while in London. He learned
he was being watched by the po-
lice. He. had to present evidence
of his American citizenship.
Going to an acquaintance, On
American woman. he told her the
true story of himself. He asked
the woman for protection. He
asked her to talk over old times in
America with him in a certain
prominent restaurant where police
would hear.

 The genuine old New Workers was looking very sad indeed.

'and while other cities of the land have small towng scattered abou the country named for them, New York is without single nauaesake If I had the New York concett might say there could be but one New York, but haven't, and I wonder if the absence of namesakes Is due to the fact that New Workers are SO enana- ored of their city, that none has ever gone forth to colonize, or that those who have gone are of so small conse- quence that they have been unable to do as much as to give the name of their native town to any that they may have assisted in founding.
