Germany Can Honeycomb
Country with Orders to
Spies and Reservists
Stations in Cubbyholes
Kaiser. Agents May Have
Secret Plants Here Now,
Says Inventor

DEVELOPMENT OF wireless system
by which the military authorities IN
Berlin could receive information about
US and send their orders for movement
against us to reservists within our own
borders would be easy" declared DR..
Lee de Forest, the wireless inventor,
last night, commenting on the news Of
the perfection Of a wireless plant IN
Mexico City which is in communication
with Germany.
Through this station in Mexico City,
DR.. de Forest believes. the strict cen
sorship over the Tuckerton and Sayville
stations could be avoided and official
Germany informed of the movement OF
every ship in every American port. His
statement follows:
VERY little space il required for the
accommodation of wireless set which
in the hands of a secret agent, could
receive the message Destroy
Easy to Direct German Spies
aided by experts, manning one or
more big transmitting stations IN
Mexico, Germany could honeycomb our
air with messages flying broadcast to
spies all over the United States. keep
ing them posted on the orders from the
military authorities in Berlin and IN
structing them as to the various moves
necessary in further entangling this 10.

this country to get into wireless touch
with Berlin for some time owing TO the
strict navy censorship over the wire

However. with this big station IN
Mexico City and other parts of the re-
public 10 the south of US, the agents
desiring to send information home can
mail or telegraph it in code to Mexico

the information and send it flashing

set up his apparatus and wait for any
information which may be intended for

Wireless in CubbyhOles

can public 10 know that the present
German sending stations at Nauen and
Hanover are quite powerful enough TO
serve any purpose OF war on the United
States. Until recently there have been
no big German wireless stations IN
Mexico, but all that is needed is sta
ton of $50 or 200 horsepower. With
the apparatus ready for use, such a
station could be erected in the course
of few days. In the technical field Of
wireless, the Germans are to-day far
in advance of their warning enemies.
"No doubt exists in my mind that at
this very minute cubbyhole and closet
wireless stations. brought into exist
ence to serve the German Kaiser, are
threatening our neutrality and safety
and honeycombing the air with hid

"Joke" on Friends
In Germany Halts
Liner on High Seas
Letters Given American
Woman Cause Search Of
Vauban at Bermuda
British Seize Notes
Traveller Who Suffered "ln-
dignities" Has Passports
Cancelled

The "joke" which Mrs. J. '. ZinAs
friends in Rio de Janeiro induced her
to help them play upon friends OF
theirs in Germany. caused the BRUSH
government 10 send a wireless when
halted the Lamport e. Holt liner |au-
ban on the high seas, and then eauSsd
her 10 nut in at Bermuda, 500 miles
of her course.
What followed thereafter Edmund
J. link. Of 3lS Summit Avenue, west
Hoboken, the woman's brother-in-ia"'
described last night. Mrs. ZinK ap-
peared willing to describe the "Ihu'g
mites" 10 which she had been SUP
ieeted after the liner had east snehor
in Grassy Bay, Bermuda, but Mr.. AinA
insisted on doing the talking.
British officers boarded the vessel as
soop as she came 10 rest in the bay,
the man said. With them were two ma
irons. who stripped Mrs. link and
searched her. In a valise which she
was carving the matrons found par
eel OF letters, which were contscated.
Then the liner was allowed 10 proceed.
Only a Joke
What was in these lettersT Znk
was asked.
Friends of my brother in Brazil
gave them to Mrs. link" he explained.
"Thev were letters to persons IN Ger
many. They thought it would be
great Joke on the folks on the other
side to receive letters from Rio mailed
in the United States"
The man insisted that his sister-ln-
law did not know what the letters con-
tanned. She had gone south, he SAID,
10 visit her husband. who is salesman
for the Lanman d. Kemp drug concern,
OF 1876 Water Street. He is still in Rio.
The Vauban was checked by the wire
less call on Sunday night as she was
rolling up from Rio. bound for New
York. BY the command of the Ac-
miralty, the captain altered her course
and headed for Bermuda, and TO lore
stall any questions had placed on the
bulletin board an announcement.
Course Changed
con Admiralty orders this vessel has
changed its course. No questions can
be answered. it said.
On Monday afternoon the vesse en-
tered Grassy Bay and was boarded by d
group of soldiers and women. who i'm
mediately descended to Mrs. links
stateroom.
They we're acting under the orders
of Lieutenant General Sir G. Mac
Worth Bullock, Governor OF the island,
they announced.
Neither Captain Cadogan. OF the
Vauban. nor his officers would discuss
the incident. Mrs. link left New York
several months ago on the Lamport q

her a United States passport, which
was cancelled upon her return yester-
