No pains or expense have been spared 10 assure the success of the vaudeville performance which will be booked at the Isis theater next Fri dny night for the one night only by the Junior Guild Of the Trinity Pro- Cathedral.
 The program from first 10 last num- bor has been arranged With tho pur pose of securing the most artistic ard entertaining effect. While it was expected that the personnel of the perfoi nance would be announced to- day 1t IS withheld out of deference to several of the more modest of the stars who will take part.
 Those who have attended rehear- sals are of the opinion that the vau- deville show will be one of the big hits of the season.

Teuton Plot to InUGde
India is Being Probed
By Federal Grand Jury

New York. March s. - The federal
grand jury to-day began an investiga-
ton of the alleged German conspiracy
in this country to cause a revolt against
British rule in India. Dr. Ernest Sc
kunna, a German chemist. and DR.
Chandre Chakraderty, a Hindu physi-
clan, arrested here Tuesday on charges
of violating the neutrality laws are
accused of participating in this plot
but theauthorities say they expect to
trace the ramifications of the conspir-
acy to others of greater prominence.
The jury had before it all the pa
pers which were confiscated by the
government when Wolf Won Igel was
indicted for an alleged attempt to
blow up the Welland canal. Won Igel
was permitted to sail with Count Won
Bernstorff on the Frederick VIII. The
federal authorities say that the names
of Sekunna and Chadraderty appear
frequently in these papers and that the
latter a year ago made trip to Ger
many and brought back a letter from
DIR. Alfred Zimmerman, the German
foreign minister, addressed to Won
Igel.
The federal district attorney and his
assistants have been somewhat mysti-
fled by many references in the Won
Igel papers to "omin," a nerve medi-
cine which DIR. Chakraderty says he
compounded and sold in the Orient.
They are trying to find also the rea-
sons behind the purchase by Sekunna
of a 200-acre tract in the hills back of
Fishkill, up the Hudson river. The
land occupied an isolated situation
about 1900 feet high. Sekunna, it
has just been learned bought it only
few days ago.

No Need to Hurry
Senator Sherman said he failed to
see any reason to be precipitate in the
matter and pointed to the sinking of
the Lusitania nearly two years ago and
the sinking of other ships since to
show that the President had not been
in hurry to demand action.

said the Senator when he seeks to
blame the Senate and the Senate rules
and few Senators, that during a
large part of this time he has rdi-
culed preparedness. He has ridiculed
it in the army and in the navy"
Mr.. Sherman declared there was no
doubt in his mind that the armed
neutrality bill would give the Presi-
dent the right to arm munition ships
and furnish warships to convoy.

mality that precedes the clash of

ercises the power given in this bill"
re Sdlu ne nOped war could be
avoided and declared himself in favor
of conscripting every New York edi-
tor who is advocating war in his edi-
torial columns.
Senator Sherman said he opposed
the cloture rule because it would be
only a question of time if the one
proposed is adopted, until the power
of two-thirds to force cloture would
be changed so it may be forced by a
majority vote. He read extracts from
President Wilson's writings declaring
that the unlimited debate in the SEN
ate was of great Importance to it's
usefulness as legislative body.
Senators Too Serious
Senator Hollis. Democrat, of New
Hampshire, declared the Senate took
itself too seriously. He moved to
amend the proposed cloture rule by
providing that a majority instead of
a two-thirds vote should end debate,
but later withdrew the amendment at
the suggestion of Senator Smith, of
Georgia, one of the five Democratic
conferees who framed the proposed
rule.

COURT ABS0LVES VATICAN
IN NOTE ESPIONAGE CASE
Finds Acts Of Mgr. Won Gerlach
Were Committed Outsids Of
Holy See.

PARIS. Juno 17-Ths Judgment of
the italian court which tried Mer.
Won Gerlach. the Austrian prelate, who
was formerly private chamberlain to the
Pope. on a charge of espionage. found
him guilty. and although he had left
Italy long ago. sentenced him to i'm
prisonment for life. has now been pub-
lished.
1t shows that the court found that
none OF the acts Of which Mgr.
Won 4erlach was accused was committed
within the Vatican or other places oc-
cupied by the holy see. which was en-
tirely absolved from knowledge of any
of the occurrences under examination.
The court says II did not consider II
necessary to examine the question OF the
immunity OF tho diplomatic courier of
the Vatican. or the enthusiastically of
the places occupied By the holy see,
as the evidence fully established the
his Illicit activities clandestinaly and By
his own means without having anythane
to do with the Vatican.
Investigation Of Mgr. Won Ger.
lach's activities was begun in Rome
after tho italian battleships Bene6etto
Brin and Leonardo dA Vincl were blown
up and one Of the plotters. an italian
named Ambrogetti. was reported to have
confessed that he was the financial
agent Of Mgr. Won Gerlach. A
Berlin dispatch last January reported
his arrival in Lugano. Switzerland, after
having. 1t was said. been forced to leave
Rome.
