PLOT TO DESTROY
SHIPPING ON LAKES
Engineered by Germans, Assisted by
SympathiZing American Citizens
No Arrests Yet

WASHINGTON, July 3. Secret inyes-
tigation by government agents has dis
closed the existence ii great conspiracy
70 destroy or hinder shipping on the Great
Lakes and thereby delay organization Of
American war armies and check the flow
of food and munitions materials from the
western states to the Atlantic coast.
No conspmators have been captured and
the identity Of none has been made public,
hut it was learned today that the state,
navy and justice departments are co-opera-
ting to bring the offenders to punishment.
and that the Canadian government prob
ably will he called upon to help.
This plot. engineered by Germans assisted
by Sympathizng American citizens, il be-
lieved to have been responsible Tor the sue
cession Of accidents to lake shipping,
especially IN the neighborhood Of the Sault
Ste Marie Canal, Which began about
month ago. The steamers SaXdhia ana Pen
tlcost Mitchell were sunk at the mouth Of
Zoo rlver with the evident intention Of

sinking OF tile steamer Nenitian made in

We're the acts of conspirators seeking to
hamper the government in the prosecution
OF he war.

learned il not revealed but officials have
concluded that the public should know OF
the situation in general way, believing
that publicity may make the operations o.
