REVEALS OLD PLOT
 TO ABDUCT WILSON
United States Was to Be Invaded
 From Canadian Line

New York. April 27.-An amplifica-
 tion of the fantastic tale of a plot to l invade Canada from the American
 side with an army of 150,00O Ger man reservists told by Count" Max Lynar, also known as Max Louden, to
 Assistant District Attorney Minton at | the time of his sentence on a charge l of bigamy in April of last year, came up yesterday in general sessions before Judge Rosalsky in Lynar's ap- plication for a parole. The plea for release was opposed by Captain Tuney of the bomb squad and A.. G. Adams, an agent of the department of justice, both of whom conferred with Judge Rosalsky on the bench. Commission CT of Corrections Burdette Lewis was
 also present.
 At the conclusion of the confer ence. which was secret, Judge Rosal- sky made the following statement in open court:
 1T am told that Lynar made ar engagements to seize the person of the president. of the United States hold him for 8 hostage and organize an army for the invasion of Canada, do not believe such a man should be allowed his liberty at the present time.''
 Judge Rosalsl<y refused later to am- plify his remarks, but one of the three officials who requested that his name should not be made public, told this version of the story: Lynar sent word to the authorities recently that he regretted his activities as a Ger r%~{4 anxious to give his services to this country. He also wrote to Major General Hugh l.. Scott, offering to the United States government several in- ventions on which he held the patents.
 'Lynar was brought over from the penitentiary." the official said, ''and he told me that some Germans once planned to kidnap President Wilson should war be declared on Germany. They thought it would be an excellent time to do the trick when the sol diers were down on the Mexican bor- der. With the president held as a hostage. they felt that they could go ahead and invade Canada
 The official said the authorities had not been able to verify the story. He believed it was true, however, as Lnyar. he said, was absolutely worthy of belief. The official recalled that Lynar had communicated to Lindley M. Garrison, then secretary of war; the entire details of the supposed plot to invade Canada with 15O,OOO men.
 "Lynar has incurred the enmity of the Germans by his change of heart, and they would give a great deal to have him on the other side," the off, cial said. "He was at one time a close friend of Captain Von Papen."
 Commissioner Lewis said he had recommended a parole for Lynar only after the police had checked up every thing he had told them at the time of his arrest.
 Lynar was accused of having mar ried Rose O'Brien of Albion, N. Y., and Amelia Wendt of Poughkeepsie. He has been suspected by the depart 1 ment of justice of having supplied the Germans with detailed plans and l specifications of the Qualifications l around New York.

NEW YORK SUN REVIEW.

New York, May 5.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Trading was quiet in today's short
session of the stock market and price
movements were in the main narrow,
largely of professional origin, and
therefore, of no great significance.
There were active intervals in such
ISSUES as United States Steel, Della

"a heavy short interest had been built

khem up from a fraction to as much as
FS points or so in Delaware & Hud-

There was n firm undertone to the
industrial list throughout, but rails
rwere irregular with an alternate turn
10 weakness. The opening was var-
liable within narrow limits. Strength
later developed moderately, with

gains, however. were neutralized be-
fore the closing.
