Detective Agency Employed by Enc
mics to Circulate False Reports,
Envoy From Germany Declares
Won Jagow Sees Special Agent.

Berlin, via London, June 19.-Dr.
Anton Meyer-Gerhari, who sailed
from New York June on a mission
to the German government from Count
Won Bernstorff, reached Berlin on
Wednesday
He had a protracted conference
with Foreign Minister Won Jagow and
Minister Solf of the colonial Office.
The report that DIR. Meyer-Gerhard
is in reality DR.. Alfred Meyer, chief
Of the supply department of the Ger
man army, was denied authoritatively.
Washington, June 10. - Develop
ments which promise to make the
case a sensation of some importance
occurred in connection with the
charges that Dr. Meyer-Gerhard, for
s'hom the state department obtained
safe passage to Germany, was in re-
ality DR.. Alfred Meyer, chief Of the
supply division of the German army.
The state department received from
the German embassy at Cedarhurst,
L. l., an official denial of the charges,
and a statement from the German am
bassador that the publication of the
charges was likely to operate against
his efforts to bring about peaceful
settlement of the controversy between
this government and Germany.
In several other instances Of late
where publicity was given to charges
against the German ambassador and
members of his staff the view Of the
German government, now disclosed
for the first time, was that the
charges originated with a detective
agency employed by Gernany's enc"
mics.
The state department gave out the
following statement, including the
denial of the ambassador:
The department of state has re-
ceived a telegram from the German
counselor, dated June 16, calling at
tention to articles appearing in yes
terday's papers in regard to an al
legged breach of confidence on the
part of the ambassador in sending
secret German gun agent to Berlin in
place of Doctor Gerhard, the Red
Cross delegate. In reference to these
articles the ambassador states as fol-
lows
at is unnecessary for me to as
sure you that the story circulated by
these articles is untrue from begin
ming to end 1t contains a personal
attack upon the ambassador and his
delegate, DR.. Meyer-Gerhard. and is
likely at the same time to nullify the
sincere and earnest efforts of the
ambassador to bring about an un-
derstanding between the United States
and Germany in the Lusitania ques-
ton"

CHINESE REPUBLIC
WARNED THAT TREATIES WITH
JAPAN MUST NOT IMPAIR
RIGHTS OF AMERICANS.
United States Informs World Inter
ference With Trade Must
Cease.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New York.-The following is note
which was handed to the Chinese
Government May 16 by the American
Minister at Pekin, acting under or
ders from the State Department at
Washington:
an view of the circumstances of the
negotiations which have taken place,
or which are pending between the gov
ernment of China and the government
of Japan, and the agreements which
have been reached and as a result
thereof, the government of the United
States has the honor to notify the gov
ernment of the Chinese Republic that
it can not recognize any agreement or
undertaking which has been entered
into, or which may be entered into,
between the Governments of China
and Japan, impairing the treaty rights
of the United States and its citizens
in China, the political or territorial
integrity of China or the international
policy commonly known as the open
door policy"
An identical note was transmitted
to the Japanese government by the
American Ambassador at Tokyo. The
United States placed itself squarely
on record that it maintained all its
rights under the existing treaties and
conventions, and indirectly informed
the world and interested parties that
the time must inevitably arrive when
further interference with legitimate
American commercial activities in
China would be no longer tolerated.
The issue in the Far East, arising out
of the dispatch of the American note
to China and Japan, has been lost
sight of in the weightier questions
created by the sinking of the Lusita-
mia.
