LONDON, Sept. S.-The morning
newspapers today give prominence 10
the news of bombing of British and
American hospitals by German avia-
tors. The Daily Mail asserts that the
American hospitals were deliberately
selected" for attack.
This newspaper adds that its cor
respondent at the front makes 1t clear
that to attack hospitals lis the general
German order" The Times CORES
pondent asserts that IL must be clearly
understood that the Germans do not
seek to avoid hospitals in night raids
but that they "purposely search them
out and travel considerable distances
to bomb them"

There is something essentially re-
voting about Germany's latest form

His evil genius has decreed that he

may we'll be regarded as the limit OF
iniquity."

GRAND JURY ON JOB
Federal Probe, Based on
Papers Seized Recently,
Being Conducted.
EXPECT INDICTMENTS SOON
Disaffection in Practically
Every State Traceable to
Single Origin.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Numerou1
indictments for conspiracy to thwart
the governments war plans appear to
be In prospect as result OF Wednes-
days nation wide raid OF /. w. w. Of
fices.
Evidence Is said to be fast accumu-
iating to support the belief that
gigantic conspiracy has existed for
some time to cripple the government
III carrying on the war, that its
fumificationS have extended into vir.
tually every state and that numerous
antiwar activities which appeared to
emanate from many sources in reality
had their fountain head In single
group OF conspirators.
Antidraft demonstrations. Gripping
of war industries. burning of crops and
continuous preachment OF antially
sentiment appear from recent dis
closures to have been included within
the scope OF the alleged conspiracy.
Originated In Chicago.
Into the formation and the work.
ings of this alleged conspiracy the
department Of justice has begun an
inquiry more comprehensive, 1t is said,
than any launched since this countrys
entry into the war.
How closely the antiwar activities
and propaganda have been interrelated
is to be determined largely by the
federal grand jury now sitting at Chi
cago investigating documents seized
by government agents in their raids
Wednesday. Indications are that the
alleged conspiracy had its origin in
Chicago and for some time was ac.
lively directed from that city.
Financed by German Coin.
There are also indications that Ger
man money financed in part this
propaganda: that German funds wero
spent freely to further the ends Of the
conspirators and that of the many
persons believed to be actively identf-
fled in carrying on the work few
knew OF this source OF financial sup
port. rl
The grand jury Will not be confined.
from present indications. TO Chicago.
Many United States attorneys have ac-
cumulatcd documentary evidence
which apparently supports the theory
of n great conspiracy and 1t Is probable
that much OF this evidence will be
presented To other grand Juries.
so vast Is the accumulation OF
papers seized by the government
agents that tho great bulk still lies un-
sifted and their exact significance
probably will not be known for several
days.
