KILLED AT DARDANELLES
Brother of Lieutenant Morrison Gets
Tidings of His Death

Word has been received by John r.
Morrison, of ass Earlham terrace, Ger
mantown, of the death Of his brother,
Lieutenant Alexander d. Morrison,
British army officer, in the British Army
Hospital in Alexandria, Egypt of injuries
received while fighting with his regiment
in the Dardanelles.
The news came to Mr.. Morrison in
letter from his parents, who live at Loeb
Carron, Scotland. Lieutenant Morrison
was an officer in the Rosshire Mounted
Battalion. Mr.. Morrison said he had not
heard from his brother since April, and
at that time he was in Gallipoli, but the
letter evidently had been strictly CEN
sored and contained little information.
Lieutenant Morrison was 2S years old,
and, according to his brother, his father
and mother in Scotland received word
from the British War Office three weeks
ago that their son had been injured.
This was followed by a telegram from
the officer, who stated that he had only
suffered n slight injury while fighting.
1t is thought here that he belittled his
injuries in order that his father and
mother might not worry. News of his
death came from Egypt three days after
his parents had received his telegram,
saying he hoped he would soon be able
to return to the front with his battalion

SECRET SERVICE MEN
SEEK SUPPOSED SPIES
Federal Detectives Working in
This City on Alleged Plots
of Germans

Federal secret service men are hot on
the trail of German propagandists and
supposed spies In this city today az a
result OF urgent orders from washington
TO drop all routine work and look into
the alleged German spy movement
Suspected parties have been followed
10 their homes and their records are
being looked up. The secret service men
also are keeping a watchful eve on the
shipping situation. IL Is said that Ger.
mans In this city have attempted to- put
German crews into English vessels with
the intention OF mutinying at sea and
turning the ships over TO the Germans.
German-Americans In Philadelphia do
not agree with the remark attributed TO
Alphonse @. Koelble. president OF the
German American Society Of New York
city. that former subjects OF the Kaiser,
now naturalized and living in this coun-
try would not fight with the United States
I'm event of war with Germany. Most or
them think Mr.. Koelble was misduoted.
81 doubt II Mr.. Koeible was quoted
correctly" said Louis +. Schuck, presi-
dent of the Junger Maennerchor, ''for Il
seems beyond me that a man Of his stand
ing would make such a statement. As
an American-born, / am American first,
last and all the time"
Herman Heyl, treasurer OF the German
Society of Pennsylvania, also believes
Mr. Koelble was misquoted. Germans
Americans. he said, do not want war.
