THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY

NEW YORK, April %. =. The documents seized by the federal gov ernment agents when they raided the office of Wolf von Igel, have gained new importance in that German code book was found that will serve. to unlock valuable information, since many of the von Igel papers are in cipher.
 Evidence received by the federal grand jury Investigating the alleged plot, convinced the U. s. district at torney that the government can legally deny the demand of the Ger man ambassador for the return of these papers. A witness testified that when Igel leased his office in 1915, he made an affidavit that the rooms we're to be used by him Gas an advertising agent and for no other purposes" This evidence, the attorney holds, refutes the assertion of the German ambassador that when the rooms were raided and Igel was arrested, the agents violat- cd an office of the embassy.

In other years II has been customary
to store great quantities = sacks and
