Dr. Albert's Portfolio.
| Another incident, the loss of a port
folio belonging to DR.. Heinrich Albert,
an Austrian official, which contained
papers relating to Ambassador Dunn
ba s efforts to incite labor troubles in
the United States, created quite a stir
among the diplomats Mr.. Rathom told
of how Journal reporter got the
papers as the result of which Dumba
was sent back to Austria by the
president.
Zone of the Journal reporters had
been shadowing DR.. Albert in New
York, but for months nothing seemed
wrong. One day he went into leath
er-goods store, where he ordered port
folio and gave the salesman instruc-
tions to put his initials on it. The
reporter, as soon as Albert had gone
out, walked up to the salesman and
ordered another portfolio of the same
kind, but with no initials, saying he
would rather first see how the other
gentleman IS initials looked When he
came back and saw the initials he said
he didn t like them and departed to go
to another shop and have the same
initials put on his portfolio. His work
was becoming less tiresome and less
fruitless than it had been. A day or
so later Albert, carrying his new port
folio, was followed from the front of
his apartments by the Journal man.
Albert boarded an elevated train. He
placed his bag containing papers on
the seat beside him. Suddenly he was
stirred by fight in the front of the
car As he stood up to see what the
trouble was, as did nearly everybody
else in the car, the portfolios were
changed. This happened on Saturday
morning. Albert, in statement later,
said that he discovered the trick the
same day, but we know for fact that
he did not discover the difference un-
til Monday morning. Needless to say |
the men who were fighting on the |
street ear were also in the employ of
the Journal
The Easement Plot
1t was through the Journal, Mr..
Rathom said, that a great quantity of
important papers were secured from
Wolf Won Ingel. These papers revealed |
the Easement plot for the Irish upris
ing. When the papers were taken, Mr..
Rathom said, in illustrating his point
that there is certain amount of stu
pidity in all German diplomatists, Won
Bernstorff made application to the I
State Department to have them re-
turned. He was told that any paper
he could identify would be returned to
him, and then realized how he had
committed himself in asking that the
papers be returned.
Three DAYS before Bernstorff was or
dered to return to Germany, Mr.. Rath-
ON declared, he demanded that the
American Government suppress the

HICKMAN'S HORSES
SAVED BY HOSTLERS
Egan and Quinn Cafes Suf-

Total $4,000.

Fire early this morning which
threatened for time to assume
alarming proportions. and sweep
through a number Of business struc-
lures, between Fairfield avenue and
Elm street, razed the provision man
ufactory Of E. w. Behrens, Jr., In the
rear of 158 Fairfield avenue land fore
ed the hostlers in the stable of Will
liam Hickman, $50 Fairfield avenue,
to lead a number of horses from their
stalls.
It proved a most stubborn and diff
ficult blaze to fight and only the
heroic work Of the members of the
fire department saved. the stable
from destruction, and a severe loss
to the cafes Of r. j. W. Egan, 160
Fairfield avenue, Harry Quinn, 164
Fairfield avenue. The loss to the
latter proved only slight, being chief
ly suffered as result of windows be-
ing broken and sashes burned.
The structure in which the blaze
started was one-story wooden build
ing and was equipped with costly
modern machinery, including several
costly electric motors used is the pro-
vision business. It is thought that
electric wires became crossed.
A watchman is employed to visit
the plant hourly. Shortly after 2
o'clock he called at the building but
noticed nothing of a suspicious nature.
About o'clock the attaches of the
Hickman stable saw the building en-
veloped in flames and the sashes OK
the windows of the stable aflame.
They sounded an alarm and removed
horses which were frantic as result
of the fire, from their stalls to safety.
When the fire department reached
the scene they concentrated all their
efforts on saving the surrounding
buildings and preventing the spread
of flames. The stable which touches
the burned structure was thoroughly
wet. Incipient ffes started Ion the
buildings close by, but they. were
quenched.
Nothing was left OF the provision
manufactory except few charred
timbers and machinery probably will
be a total. loss. Mr.. Behrens today
estimated that his damage will reach
about $4,000. The loss to other busi-
ness men in the immediate neighbor-
hood will reach about $50 each,
making a total loss Of $4,000.
