OTTAWA, February GA
~ report that three aeroplanes
were leen early ,ast night, aying
on the. Canadian side of the St.
Lawrence River along the line of
the Grand Trunk Railroad, head
ed in the direction of Montreal,
has been received by Colonel
Sherwood, head of the Canadian
secret service. Although the sec
tons bordering upon the United
States are filled with rumors OF
plotters and attempts at the de-
struction of government property
and frequent reports are being
made to the authorities which are
plainly 'hysterical, Colonel Sher-
wood states that he is inclined to
credit his informant regarding the
presence over Canada of strar &c
and possibly hostile aeroplanes.
MUNITIoN PLANT FIRED -
Early last night fire broke
out in the Jardine munition fac
tory located at Hespeler, Onta-
rio, the FIRST report being that
the factory had been destroyed
by a bomb. The fire, which de-
stroyed one Of the buildings of
the munition plant, is regarded
by the authorities as of undoubted
incendiary origin, and the mill
tia is now guarding the plant and
assisting the police in searching
out suspicious characters. Sew
eral persons were injured in the
fire, which fact adds to the in
dignation of the public at Hes
pelcr.
Three arrests have been made
of suspects, one of the prisoners
being a German and the other
two Austrians.
The ruins of the Parliament
Building broke out in fire afresh
yesterday, but this was speedily
brought under control.
Ready Before the War
That various Canadian cities
were marked for attack by Ger
man dynamiters and that the plots
were matured before even the
war broke out is the belief of the
authorities, due to the revelations
that have been made by the Am
erican secret service men and by
British secret service men work
ing in the United States.
This belief has been corrobor-
ated by a discovery made yester-
day in a local hotel, where a
trunk that had been, left by a
transient visitor before the, war,
in lieu Of his board bill, was open
NI
ed by the police. The hotel guest,
who had registered as Carl Schy-
bert, drew attention to the pres
ence of the trunk in the hotel
storeroom by forwarding money
from San Francisco, sufficient to
meet the charges against it and
asking that the trunk be sent to
him on the lP9apei6f Coast. -,
When the trunk was broken
open it was found to contain
sketches and maps covering
points in number of Canadian
cities, maps and sketches of sec.
tons of the boundary line and
c"pious notes, all written out in
German.

Chicago is having another character

it seems that they colonized short

is worse than the first. A negro al

is charged with protecting dance halls
