tective Evans saw the reporter leave
The Herald Office and enter the pool
room. The reporter sat down in a de-
serted part of the poolroom.
The witness stationed in the pool
room observed that the reporter would
have been able to receive the drug
from no one but DR.. Barstow. The
reporter did not speak to any one in
the poolroom.
Put Cocaine in Reporters Pocket.
Dr. Barstow entered the poolroom. He
joined the reporter and the two seated
themselves on a settee in the back Of
the ROOM DR.. Barstow again referred
to a copy oftheFederal law. pointing
out clause which makes liable to
five years Imprisonment or 5000 fine
for any person not licensed to handle
drugs in whose possession such drugs
are found in dangerous quantities.
Dr. Barstow appeared to derive a good
deal of satisfaction from anticipating
what would happen to the reporter after
March l. if he should be found in pos
session of the drug.
Dr. Barstow cautiously informed the
reporter that he had the cocaine in his
pocket and finally transferred it. con-
tanned in two small bottles, to the pocket
of the reporters overcoat.

Dr. Barstow at some later date and pur-
chase a quantity of the cocaine the re-
porter left, followed by the other men,
Der of The Herald staff who had watched
them in conversation. and who can testi-
fy that the reporter talked with no one
except DR.. Barstow and was at no time
in n position to receive anything from
any person other than DIR. Barstow, while
in the pOolroom.
Espionage Plan Was Complete.
Detective Evans then followed the re-
porter to the second floor of the Herald
building where the cocaine-about Jos
grains in flake form. in two eighth
ounce bottles-was turned over to Phar-
macy Inspector Sanders.
The plan Of espionage followed was so
complete that at no time would it have
been possible for The Herald reporter
with out being detected, to receive any
thing from any person other than DR..
Barstow between the time he was search
ed by Pharmacy Inspector Sanders and
Detective Evans in The Herald Office
and the TIME when he delivered the
cocaine To Mr.. Sanders.

German Soldiers Tell French They

London, Feb 24-''The campaign of
hatred conducted by the press and pub
lie men of Germany against Great Brita in
is not without its effect upon German
soldiers says a report by the official
eyewitness with the British forces.
made public tonight.
There are signs Of greater bitterness
displayed toward us than toward our
allies" the report continues. This Is
noticeable lately in attempts to impress
upon French that the real quarrel is not
with them, but with the English.
"A few days ago the Germans shouted
to the French that they had no desire
to fight them: that the English were their
only enemies. They threw messages into
the French trenches to the same effect.
Taken in connection with other incidents,
these actions are not without signifi-
canoe"
Reviewing operations since February
IA, the report states that for the first
three days lighting was almost continu-
