er defendant, was hired as a spy, not

alleged by the government.
Letters from Captain Boy-Ed and
Count Won Bernstorff, dated April %
and March 26. 1915. dealt with reports
forwarded by Won Setback of construc
ton of submarines for Great Britain
and Russia by the Union Iron Works
here.
Mr. Bryan's letter was an answer to
the complaint from the local consul
late that American-ow owned tugs out of
American ports were aiding belligerent
Japanese warships to strip the Afnasa
of her guns and transfer them oother
warships when the ASama was
aground in the spring of 1915.
1.-The government has concluded not
to file a protest" wrote Mr.. Bryan,
then secretary of state.
Won Schackr said Crowley had I'M
earthed the information on which the
correspondence was based, but he
could not remember who owned the
tugs which assisted in salvaging the
