MASTER SPY
HELD IN JAIL

ISys Associated HresssD - y ss--. s--s- ~
WASHINGTON, Nov 13.-Karl
Armgaard Graves, self-styled inter
national spy and magazine writer, is
under arrest, charged with attempt
ing to extort $4,000 from Countess
Won Bernstorff, wife of the German
ambassador, by threatening to pub
lish letters "alleged to contain mat
tiers showing her infirmities and fail
ings." Officials of the embassy also
allege that Graves had in his pos
session what apparently were conf
Dental coded diplomatic dispatches
from the German government to
Count Won Bernstorff. The prisoner
told the federal agents he obtained
all the documents from persons who
smuggled them past the British CEN
sors on the steamship Oscar III. The
warrant upon which he was arraigned
and held on $4,000 bail for further
hearing Wednesday charges him also
with bringing into the District of
Columbia letters stolen in Hoboken,
~ j.. where the Oscar III docks.
In Washington, Graves was known
as the man who had published
widely what he alleged to be inn
portant secrets of the German war
Office and the Hohenzollerns. He
also was known as man who preyi-
ously had described himself as a
member of the German secret service
and later as an employe in foreign
fields Of the British foreign office.
He styled himself the Master Spy"
Arrangements for the prosecution
of Graves will be completed today at
conference between agents of the
department of justice, representatives
of the district attorneys office and
Prince Hatfield, counsellor for the
German ambassador.
The letters for which graves is

in the possession of agents of the
department of Justice.
The German embassy is most
anxious to learn how Graves obtained
the letters which he is alleged to
have thought would "embarrass"
Countess Won Bernstorff if made pub
lie. 1t is considered unlikely. how
ever, that information on this point
can be obtained, until the oscar III.
on which Graves declared the letters
were brought to the United States,
returns to New York. Graves was in
New York at liberty on $1,000 bail.

AMERICAN VESSEL
SUNK OFF SPAIN

ny Associated Press.D
WASHINGTON Nov. 13.-The case
of the American steamer Columbian,
reported sunk of the Spanish coast,
will be laid before President Wilson
by the state department, as part of
a general summary of recent sub
marine operations construed by some
OFFICIALS as forecasting radical
change in the Germany policy. In
formation regarding the Columbian
was so incomplete that no official
would predict what part the case may
play in final determination OF this
governments course. Late in the
day the American consul at Balboa
forwarded the report that the vessel
had been sunk thirty miles of Cape
Ortegal, and her crew saved, but no
details were given. The dispatch i'm
mediately was called to the attention
of Secretary Lansing.
Points to be cleared up before
decision is reached involve the ques-
ton of whether the vessel was fired
on without warning; whether she
carried contraband, and whether she
attempted to escape. The report re-
ceived several days ago that the
Columbian was being shelled by
submarine led many OFFICIALS to be-
lieve that she probably was running
away. thereby sacrificing her i'm
munity from attack. II she carried
contraband and was properly warned,
the case may resolve itself into a
question of indemnity.

GOOD ARGUMENT FOR OPENING
 ALASKA COAL

The Alaska market still depends largely cn British Columbia coal. That the supply may be cut off any time IS indicated in the following editorial in the Vancouver News-Ad vertissr:
 No shortage in the coal supply cI this province should be heard of on Clis coast unless some great mine disaster has made production impossible. We talk about finding markets for our mineral products and tHat may se 8 problem with Jbe United population. But there never should be q shortage of coal for the home market. The mine owners owe 1t to tbe public to have always sufficient reserve supply for any emergency, and coal should uC- be exported while the reserve is inadequate. The coal of the pro vince originally belongs to the pub lie. Those who obtain the right to mine coal enter into an implied con tract that the pu5uc owners should never be left without coal The surplus. and only the surplus, should be available for export. That implied contract should be con- srrued l:beralIy on the side of the people. t calls for reserve sui Iicient to insure delivery and a constant supply though production shouII be stopped for a consider able time through labor troubles. We understand that this reserve, or part Of it, may be in the hands Of dealers. But it is the business of the producers to See that it is somewhere within reach.

MARKED DEMAND This
SEASON FOR ROADSTER

''The marked increase in the demand
for roadsters. due chiefly to the appear
ance of the three and four passenger
cars, is the seasons most striking de-
velopment in the automobile industry -
states Elwood Haynes, president of the
Haynes Automobile Company.
"At the Haynes plant says Mr..
Haynes, "we have had to revise our
body schedules on account of the sales
Of our small party cars. A few years
ago our roadsters made up only a small
percentage of the years total output
and touring car models were bought al
most exclusively, even in cases where a
roadster might readily have served
These conditions have greatly changed
in the past year and the demand for
roadsters is constantly assuming larger
proportions.
esrhe roadster owes its present popu
larity TO the fact that il has been all
tered to meet the need Of the small
party. who found that the touring car
was extravagant in its room. The new
car brings all the passengers within easy
speaking distance without sacrificing
any Of the comfort of the larger auto

The dressing adds materially TO the
