CALL FIVE DEATH PLOTTERS
Federal Grand Jury Returns Indicx-
ments Against 5reltung, Fay and
Others-Murder New Charge.

New York, Dec. S.-Five additional
indictments were returned by the fed
eral grand jury on Monday against
Robert Fay, Walter Scholz, Max Bret
tung, DR.. Herbert Kienzle, Englebert
Bronkhorst, and Paul Daeche. All
were charged with conspiracy to COM
NIT murder, to commit assault with
deadly weapons and to destroy ships.
The previous indictments against
them merely charged them with at
tempting to destroy ships. The orig
inal charge referred to ships presum-
ably owned by the allied nations.
The new indictments specifically state
that the alleged conspiracy was iii
rected against Americans and ships
owned in part or whole in this coua-
try.
Assistant District Attorney Knox.
who has been in charge of the case,
explained that the indictments for
conspiracy to commit murder did not
necessarily mean that murder was
planned, but that men who conspired
to commit an act which might result
in murder could be charged with the
more serious crime.

N. W. LIFE LOSES SUIT
SUPREME COURT SAYS STATE
PROPERLY COLLECTED TAXES.
Action Was Brought to Recover LIZ
oense Fees Paid Under Protest
in 1912 and 1918.

Madison.-The Northwestern Life
Insurance Co. lost in its attempt to
recover from the state nearly $1,000
600 in taxes paid under protest in
1912 and 1913 to satisfy the statute
requiring the company to pay an an
nual license fee of per cent upon
its gross income from all sources,
through the action of the supreme
court in Diminishing the complaint of
the company on it's merits. The opinion
was written by Chief Justice Winslow.
The case, involving one of the most
important pieces of financial litigation
In recent years, will probably be car
ried by the company to the United
States supreme court on the ground
that the statute is in violation of the
rights of interstate commerce. The
decision has an important bearing on
the case yet unargued before the SUI
preme court in which the company is
seeking to recover over 81 900, 900 paid
as taxes for 1914 and 1915.
Had the decision been in favor of
the company, the condition of the state
treasury would have been seriously af-
fected, and the legislature would not
only have been compelled to make ar
rangements to pay back the taxes al
ready paid in, but to provide additional
revenue to make up the loss in the flu
ture.
This was an action brought by the
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance
Co. to recover back from the state the
aggregate sum of 1887, S36.45 paid by
it unter protest as taxes for the privi-
lege of doing business in Wisconsin for
the year 1912 and 1913, the amounts
paid being $492, 1913 on Feb. 20. 1912,
and $505,64S.22 on March /, 1913.

BERLIN SEEKS FACTS
WISHES TO KNOW WHY RECALL
OF BoY-ED AND Won PAPEN
REQUESTED.
MAY CONTEST WITHDRAWALS
American Officials Surprised by Ac-
ton, Which Is Contrary to DipIo-
matte Usage, in Part--U. S. to Re-
fuse to Give Reasons.

Washington, Dec. 8.-The state de-
partment received another inquiry on
Monday on the request for the Boyd
and Won Papen inquiry from the Ber-
lin foreign Office, transmitted by Am
bassador Gerard. 1t was made known
officially here that the United States
would decline to go into the question
of facts on the subject and would not
disclose the sources of its information.
Count Won Beynstorff presented to
the state department communication
asking for the reasons for the request
for the withdrawal of Captain Boyd
and Captain Won Papen, the German
naval and military attaches, respec-
lively.
1t was stated authoritatively, though
not in the communication, that the am
bassaGor would under no considera-
ton ask the United States to get safe
conducts for the attaches. The Ger
man government was represented as
considering it incumbent upon the
United States to return the attaches
in safety to German territory and
bring their successors here.
All the action is considered by Off
cials of the state department to be
contrary to precedents of diplomatic
procedure. While conferences upon
the subject are in progress the two
attaches, Captain Boyd and Captain
Won Papen, will remain within the
United States.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, made emphatic denial of
reports that Germany or German off,
cial agents had been concerned in re-
cent attempts to set up counter revo-
luton in Mexico.

Oscar II, with Henry Ford's peace pill
grims aboard, set sail for blood-stained
Europe on Saturday. Cheers and
tears flooded Hoboken's water front.
William Jennings Bryan stood on the
end of the thronged dock waving a
red rose and murmuring: God bless
you"
Beside Bryan stood Thomas A. Edi-
son and Mrs Ford and her son, Edsal
Behind these stood 10000 bowling men
and women.
Two bands were playing, II Didn't
Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier" A
thousand flags were waving from the
crowded decks of the Oscar. The
mobs on the pier were singing, howl
ing, whistling and crying. Some were
hysterical; others were simply leaping
up and down emitting roars of peace,
peace, peace, peace"
An intoxicated young man with a
German accent, shouted: "Gott Strafe
Heinrich Ford"
"Good-by. God bless you. Keep
your shoulder to the wheel, and do
not lose courage. Right is might,
and we are ght.''
This was Bryan's last word to Ford

Bryan's hand. The crowd was too
great to permit access to his rudy
cheeks.
John Burroughs. naturalist, and C.

wave farewell to the pilgrims
When Ford gave his last message, a
few minutes before the gangplanK
