New York, Oct. 27.-Federal grand
jury consideration of the cases OF the
five men charged with conspiracy in
plotting to destroy transatlantic ships
laden with munitions of war for the
allies will begin next month. This was
announced today by United States At
torney II. Snowden Marshal, after a
conference with William ]. flynn, chief
of the secret service and detectives
who arrested the men.
Others May Be Implicated.
After reviewing all the alleged evil

Scholz, Paul Daeche. DIR. Herbert
Kienzle and Max Breitung-and CIV
ing special attention to the confession
of Fay, Mr.. Marshall said the govern
ment was not convinced that all those
implicated had been arrested.
Have any more warrants been is
suedT' Mr.. Marshall was asked.
May BE More Arrests.
NO more warrants have been is
sued and no more arrests are contem-
plated for the present. Yet there may
be further arrests later. We do not
believe that those most responsible for
the conspiracy have yet ,been found.
cannot give any intimation as to
the character OF a further move, II
| there is to be any. The cases OF the
men already arrested will go before
the November grand jury.
Material Gathered as Evidences.
| I'VE have much material gathered
as evidence which still has to be d.
gested. One of the acts of the con-
spiracy was the actual fixing OF a
bomb to a ship for experimental pur-
poses. Our inquiry has not disclosed
/ that any bomb was placed on a ship
with intent to blow UP the ship. Nor
does our information indicate that Fay

German army, was acting in a way
other than on his own responsibility"

Another development was the send
ing of a telegram to the state depart
ment by Count Won Bernstorff. the
German ambassador, denying that Fay
lhad any connection with the German
ment.
