Days, Says Representative Of

MADDEN AND COOK TO THE PEN


NEW YORK, March 19.-An arch
NEW YORK, March 20.-An arch
German government immune from
arrest, Is the real background for
three men, heretofore of no promi-
nence, who were sentenced here to-
day for conspiring against the
United States, it was declared in
court.
Richard H.. Stegler German ma
val reservist, pleaded guilty yester-
day to the charge and was sentenced
TO sixty days in Jail. Richard Mad

accomplices, we're found guilty yes
terday and were sentenced today to
ten months Imprisonment each in
the New York county penitentiary.
All three, Charles H. Griffiths, Steg-
lers counsel, said, in pleading for
leniency for his client, we're puppets.
Mr.. Griffiths in his address avoided
mention Of the name of ''the representa-
tive of the German government to whom
he alluded.
Judge Cushman in sentencing Segler
said he would take into consideration the
fact 'thatNhe made a clean breast Of his
part in the conspiracy, but said: Since
at this time there is a large foreign-born
population which still apparently shows
allegiance to foreign governments some-
thing should be done to discourage acts
OF this kind. 1t would not do to send him
out from here scot free and let him pose
as hero"
"stegler is not the instigator of this
conspiracy" Mr.. Griffiths declared. He
is not the arch conspirator. Having lost
his position in an exporting house, Steg-
Ter went to a representative of his gov
eminent here to see II he could help him
out.
There a plan was suggested to him to
get a passport and go to England as a
spy. Money was given him to get the
passport, together with recommendation
from firms in the United States to firms
in England TO carry out the scheme
There was where the money came from
5000 in about Of which he paid Madden
and Cook"
Stegler, the attorney continued, was
ready, to go. but wanted written assur-
ances that in case he, met death~in Eng
land his wife would be provided for
He. gave up the plan" Mr.. Grfffiths
declared, because he could not get the
written assurance. The representative OF
the German government then offered him
work around the harbors and docks. This
representative is, on account OF his posi-
ton. immune from arrest If he were
not Izcould show IN this court that Steg-
Ter was led on by this person to obtain
the passport. But Stegler. Cook and Mad

We now have q situation that has
practically the same problems that
brought on the war Of 1912. 1t is
almost a parallel case, excepting that
war Is more terrible now than ever
before. The question arises in my
mind whether we, as q world, have
actually progressed In the last 100
years when II comes to war, peace
and diplomacy.
There was time in the west
when cowboys used TO come in and
shoot up q town. II was much safer
to stay at home than to venture on
the streets and usually the man that
did not want to get into trouble took
the safe side and stayed at home un-
til the shooting was over. He might
get hit and he might not. OF course,
his action might affect the amount
Of business he was doing. The situa-
ton TO the world is Just the same.
