WHOLESALE DESTRUCTION
OF SHIPS SAILING FROM
NEW ORLEANS AND N. Y.

( Washington, d. c., July 14.-Tht
Washington Times in an extra, says
Secret service agents are cooper
ating with the police of practically
every eastern and southern city In al
effort to run down what is believed to
be a conspiracy, titanic in scope, to
destroy freight steamers clearing from
American ports for England and
France.
"The expose is nearly ready, it is
freely reported, and officials expect
revelations of so startling a nature as
TO surprise the world.
"a large amount of money is behind
the conspiracy, it is limited in well
informed quarters.
IAN idea of the magnitude of the
suspected plot may be obtained from
the fact that secret service men blame
the conspirators even for the attempt
months ago to destroy the French
liner La Touraine.
1T was reported at the time that
the fire on the vessel was caused by
internal combustion, but officials now
believe fire bomb started the blaze
"The conspirators also are believed
to be responsible for the placing of
similar internal machines aboard the
steamships Kirk Oswald. Blankdale,
Devon City, Lord Erne and Crossing
ton Court"
Federal agents said that, while 1t
gave them new theory to work on,
they did not connect the New Orleans
''Pearce" letters which they regarded
skeptically as to its genuineness, with
the case they had in hand.
New York reports" said the Times,
"are that arrests are momentarily ex-
pected there of men, all siad to be in
conspiracy to plant bombs aboard
English vessels supplementing the
submarine warfare of Germany.
Whether the New York conspirators
are affiliated with 'Pearce' or were
affiliated with Holt, is not now indi-
Gated.
Government agents and New York
detectives under Police Commissioner
Woods are on the New York trail
Both the government agents and
Commissioner Woods are inclined to
believe that several of the men engag-
ed in the conspiracy will admit their
connection with it and expose the en-
tire scheme when they are placed un-
der arrest

stroy the liners is one of the biggest
