SPY OR TRAITOR
REVEALS SECRETS
HuRting fer Writer OF Letters to
Senator Telling Forbidden
Details.

Washington, June - Investiga-
ton by the senate nav. committee
of accidents caused by defective am.
munition on armed merchantmen
was interrupted today to await the
outcome of a search by government
agents for the writer of letters mail
ed from Detroit, Mich, to Senator
Frelinghuysen revealing naval ord
ance secrets.
Secretary Daniels, placing the let
tiers before the committee, declared
that either a spy OR traitor had
been at work because the informa-
ton disclosed could have been OBJ
tanned nowhere except from the
confidential files of the navy's ord
nance bureau. He insisted that the
writer should be found and required
to explain.
The committee adjourned until
Wednesday by which time it is hoped
to locate the author of the letters.
Senator Frelinghuysen told the
committee that he had no desire to
shield any one and had sought un-
successfully to discover the identity
of his correspondent. Tonight he
gave out a statement defending the
letter writer, saying his object was
the welfare of the country and to
prevent further accidents and de-
claring that Mr.. Daniels use of the
words, "spy" and traitor" was re-
markable. He made public his let
ter to Secretary Daniels transmitting
the letters, explaining that while he
did not know his correspondent, he
felt in all fairness the secretary
should be informed of the charges
made and that the documents men
toned should be produced.
During the hearing today Rear Ad-
miral Earle, chief of the ordnance
bureau, and Capt. Twining and Capt.
Strauss gave the committee detailed
and technical information con-
corning the accident on the Mongolia
and other vessels, the chief facts
concerning which have been publish
ed previously in official reports.

BRITISH DYNAMO ARRIVES
Lord NorthcIiTe in .merica to Take
Up Cause Of Allies Where RaI-
four Lett OH.

New York, June 11.-Great Britain's
human dynamo, Alfred Charles Harms
worth, Lord Northcliffe. arrived in
America today to carry forward the
work of war cooperation with the
United States inaugurated by the Bal
four mission.
The man who upset two cabinets and
woke up the English people issued a
brief statement and buckled down to
his Job, Enthusiastically. He is not
here for diplomacy. He is here for
business and finance. Taking up
where Mr.. Balfour left OH he will
seek to coordinate the work of the
various subsidiary British missions
engaged here in arranging with the
government for supplies to be shipped
to the allies, ships to be furnished and
the general detail of joint co-opera-
ton between France, Italy, Great Brit
ain and the United States.
Established
Aside from the formal statement he
issued, Lord Northcliffe declined to
say anything. Leaving London on 36
hours notice he was accompanied only
by valet. Reaching New York he
exchanged. flying salutes with old
friends, distributed his statement on
the way, leaped into an automobile and
was whisked uptown to the Hotel
Gotham where he will make his head
quarters. In day or two he will
go to Washington to see President
Wilson.
Arriving at the hotel Lord North
cliffe consented to pose for his pic
ture.
"One picture, only one" he said.
'tOh there Burton-just a minute.
Fix up your camera boys. Bullock. a
word with you-let me know when
you are ready, and remember only
one"
With pair of horn spectacles in his
hands he darted from one room to an
other, conferring with three differ
ent groups of callers, the while the
picture men posed dummy and level
ed their cameras upon him. With
eeyvrroOm0 assx,sush .anewptvbgk
everything in readiness Lord North
cliffe was notified. He darted in and
dropped into the designated seat.
Slow
"Now, then boys, hurry up he ur-
ged. "Just one, understand. My word
get move on you-snap 1t, snap it.
You are not half as fast as the men
who take pictures for my papers,
Noticing for the first time the re-
porters, he demanded:
"Where are your cameTas?''
eve are only reporters" was the
reply.
Nothing to report here cried his
lordship. 'Not thing. Good hea-
vens, aren't you through yet? But
can't look both ways at once. Oh, but
you're slow"
All the while Roosevelt-fashion his
mouth was moving, he was darting
glances out of the windows and look
ing about the room At length he
rose abruptly.
That's all,' he cried. "one is
plenty"
The only callers Northcliffe saw dur
ing the day were Stephen Lausanne,
editor of the Paris Matin, and Briga-
der General White, in charge of Brit
ish recruiting in New York. Follow
ing his invaraible rule he retired at 9
o'clcck tonight. And following his
rule he will be up and on the JOB at .
O'Clock in the morning.

HOW WOULD Yep
ATTACK ON NEW
YORK CITY FARE?
By Henry Woodhouse.

New York, Mar. 2.-It is quite true
Zeppelins, in case of war between the
United States and Germany, could
cross the Atlantic ocean easily, but
they would have to contend with the
anti aircraft guns of every one of the
allied ships which are patrolling the
Atlantic as well as the sea planes that
are on board some of the allied ships.
In addition the ships of our navy are
now, or will be repadily equipped with
antiaircraft guns.
Besides, to make more than one
raid, the Zeppelin would need tc have
a base somewhere on the American
continent, and we can hardly believe
it would be possible for the Germans
to establish such base under pres
ent conditions.
Germany is supposed to have close
to 100 Zeppelins in commission or
about to be placed in commission. She
has lost about 80, brought down by
the allies aeroplanes and anti-air
craft guns.
While the contingency of Zeppelin
raid is remote, the damage that could
be done to a city like New York by
even single raid, is enormous. A
single bomb falling on one of the
large buildings of the downtown sec
ton of the city would kill thousands,
besides doing an immense amount Of
property damage.
There are in America today less
than 400 aviators trained or under
training under the control of the
army.
The national defence act of June 8,
1916, limits the number of army avia-
tors for 1917 to less than 100 1t pro-
vides for an aerial reserve corps in
which an unlimited number of civil
ians or militiamen may be enlisted;
and it provides also for the training
of militia aero squadrons.
There are now about so candidates
for the aerial reserve corps under
training.
On the day after breaking Of di-

neuvers held last September under
most adverse conditions, and located
ships of the attacking fleet as well as
mines.
On September 9 one of the Curtiss
seaplanes of the unit went out to look
for the two torpedo boat destroyers
representing the enemy attacking
fleet. The fog Prevented the aviators
from seeing further than six miles
and when they were about 25 miles
outside New York harbor they were
caught in a thunderstorm.
But they located the destroyers
Flusser and Warrington, unknown to
the latter, and reported them to the
Atlantic Yacht club.
1t is unlikely war conditions Will
make possible raids by either Zeppe-
Inns or aeroplanes, but it is by no
means impossible that a hostile Ger
man raider should bring one or more
aeroplanes within reach of our coast,
or even that a submarine, with Sc
cret base on the Atlantic coast, should
bring over such raiders.
Facing the possibility of such act
ivity, searchlight, as we'll as anti-air-
craft gun defenses will have to be re-
sorted to.
