-FOUR CONSULS
ARE MISSING
FROM MUNICH
Americans Ordered Trans
ferred to New Posts
in Turkey.
STATE DEPT. IS
MUCH CONCERNED
Inquiry Sent Out About
Two Weeks Ago Through
Spanish Sources.
BY ASSOCIATED pREss

Washington, March 22.-Alarm
over the fate of the four American
consuls ordered from Germany to
Turkey on the severance of relations
and last reported held at Munich, Ger
many, has caused the state depart
ment to inquire about them again
through the Spanish ambassador. An
inquiry WIS first sent about two weeks
ago. -
The four consuls were ordered
transferred to Turkish posts. After
some delay, Germany declared they
were being held until the United
States assured the uninterrupted
voyage of former German Consul
Mueller at Atlanta, from Havana to
Ecuador. This difficulty disposed of.
Turkey demanded the consuls be ac-
credited under new exquaturs.
This the United States refused and
Turkey withdrew the request. 1t then
developed that Germany would not
allow the consuls to go until it was
learned if they were personally ac-
ceptable to Turkey. Officials are at
loss to know where the men are or
what has been the actual cause of so
much trouble.

Examination of Effects of
Globe Trotters Brings
Forth a Big Surprise.
CLAIMED WERE ON
WORLDWIDE WALK
Both Men, Who Are Ger
mans, Carried Cameras
When Arrested.
BY AssocIArEn PRESS

Atlanta, Ga, March 22.-Exmina-
ton of the effects of Valerian Jo-
names Pieczynski and Hugo Cout-
andin, German youths arrested here
last night, today led government of
ficers to investigate whether or not
there has been anything sinister in
the movements of several German
"hikers" over the United States in the
past two years and a half. The po-
lice say they told them they were
walking around the world on a bet.
Newspaper clippings with photo
graphs show that they have been sup
posed to be doing the same thing
with at least seven other companies,
one of whom is woman.
One photograph shows Pieczynski
with woman and the accompanying
story tells that they were walking
from Chicago to San Francisco on
their honeymoon. Another shows the
same woman with German giving
the name of A. T. Enden, and that
story was also to the effect that the
couple was covering the Pacific coast
on their honeymoon. Another photo
graph taken at Tampa, Fla, shows
Enden and Coutandin in ''hikmg'
costume. Coutendin there described
himself as wireless operator. OFF,
GERS say they also have photographs
showing one or the other of the two
held here incommunicado on "suspic-
ion" pared with at least five other
men.
The officers say that papers taken
from Piecsynski's knapsack shows
that he had been a sailor on at least
three American coastwise vessels in
the past two years and half, and
that Coutandin acted as assistant
chef in an Illinois club, the name of
which they did not make public.
Other papers, the officers say, show
that Pieczynski took out first natu-
radiation papers in New York, July
8, 1915, and that on September 8,
1915, Coutandin applied for citizen
ship at Chicago.
Both men carried cameras when ar.
rested in their room at the Y. M. C.
A, where they arrived yesterday.

spruce, and bass wood are used for
