FOE SPY SYSTEM
BY DISCLOSURES

Germany's spy system and her in.
ternational intrigues are being rap
idly uprooted by governmental dis
closures.
While a spy system still fourishes
in this country, officials declared to-
day that the exposures OF the Argen-
tine, Mexico. and Philippine plots
made Germany's workers more eau
tious than ever before.
As for the Philippines, authorities
said that the detention OF German
Vice Consul Conrad Andre. Of Cebu,
on a charge Of trying to incite an
insurrection had proven quite effect
I've. Since that time there have been
no evidences OF any German attempt
TO STIR UP the natives and to cause
trouble for the United States.
In addition to the Andre revelation,
II is known that the Germans have
pursued their intriguing methods in
the far East extensively. China was
a hotbed Of activity, but this has
been stamped out by Chinese govern
mental action in rounding up plotters.
There was talk today that with the
break between Costa Rica and Ger
many. German activities to create i'll
feeling and trouble in the Americas
will be found TO have developed in
that little country.

, police could get at were seized by

around TO the place, and, on talking
with the criminal detectives in charge
was told by them that they made the
raid by the orders OF the foreign
office.
When I spoke to the foreign office
about this its officials denied that they
had given directions for the raid and
made 4 sort of half apology. The raid
was all the more unjustifed because
only the day before l had had n con,
versation with the adjutant of the
Berlin kommandantur and told him,
although I had permission from the
foreign office, that ] thought 1t would
be better to dismiss the English EN-
ployed in the embassy and employ
only Americans or Germans. / sent

ner, head of the Deutsche Bank, and
asked him to recommend some Ger
man accountants 10 me.
The kommandantur is the direct Of,
flee of military control. When the
adjutant heard OF the raid he was
almost as indignant as was, and on
the 10th of October informed me that
he had learned that the raid had been
made on the joint orders of the for,
eiGn office and Won Tirpitz's depart,

The books and papers OF an en-
bassy, including those relating to

arily in the embassy's care. are uni
versally recognized in international
law as not subject to seizure: noI
did the fact that I was carrying or
this work outside the actual embassy
building have any bearing on this
point, so long as the building was
directly under my control, especially
as the only work carried on was
work properly in my hands in my
official capacity.
The foreign office saw that Il had
made a mistake. But at thinner
mann's earnest request agreed, as
IL were, to forget the incident.
Later on this precedent might have
been used by our Government had
it desired to press the matter of the
seizure OF Won Tgefs papers. Won

Nevertheless, as he had been en-
ployed in some capacity in the Ger
