ATTEMPTS TO
/. : STIR INDIA
Germany Has Never Ceased
Attempts to Start
Revolt
CLUMSY, BELATED,
TOO THEATRICAL
Schemes Have All Failed,
Declares Sir Charles
Cleveland

Simla India, Jan. 23.--From a tim'
early in the war right up to the present
moment Germany has never ceased at
tempts to stir the Indian empire to re
volt, according to Sir Charles Cleveland
director of criminal intelligence in this
country, who made this statement to a
correspondent of the Associated Press
Sir Charles characterized the plots as
"clumsy, belated, too theoretical and
based on misunderstanding of Indian
character" and declared that the scheme
failed chiefly because of "the sanity OF
the great Indian public, which has with
held its support"
Sir Charles is reputed to know more
about those in whom the secret service
naturally would be interested than any
other man in India. For years he has
made study OF that class which favors
The darkness of night for its comings
and its goings, and now as head OF the
secret service, the government relies upon
him to check untoward occurrences in
any section before they have grown into
a serious mesace.
'sThere has been some trouble in In
dia,' said Sir Charles, "but it has fallen
very far short both of the picture drawn
in enemy publications and of the enemys
desire. The state Of India all through
the war seems to have exposed very
big miscalculation on the part of the
Germans.
at would be interesting to examine
how far this miscalculation was due to
misunderstanding of normal Indian at
fairs and how far to q miscarriage OF
plans for causing trouble in India and
among Indians outside India during the
war. My own impression is that Ger
many thought India would need very
little extraneous prompting and assist
ance to rise against the British if the
latter were in serious embarrassment
owing to a big continental war, and that
therefore not very much attention was
paid by the German government to in
stigation in India before the war. Where
and how did the German government get
that idea? Was it conveyed to them by
secret unknown agents or by their con-
sular officers i'm India or by some over
confident Indian extremist or by British
panic mongersY 1t is difficult to say for
certain but | remember that some years
ago an Indian extremist leader used the
following words to me:
"'We shall certainly try to embarrass
you actively in India if you have a war
with continental power or with At
ghanistan. Our feelings are firm on that
point unless, indeed, self interest or some
special reason dictates passive attitude
TO some or all of us. But never again
will you find such positive assistance as
we gave you at the time of the Boer
war
MY extremist friend went on to tell |
me that we were foolish to think we
could count on the Indian army. At the |
time | thought my friends attitude was
pathetic in its self delusion, and time
has shown that / was right.
after the war broke out the German
government showed willingness to
spend money lavishly on Indian trouble,
but there was no sign of financing of
troublesome schemes or individuals be.

Eastern Oregon Will
Break All Price Records

Portland. Ore, June 26.-Eastern
Oregon fine wool has climbed to the 81
cent mark. This price was paid by
Crimmins & Pierce for 10000 pounds
at Heppner, and it establishes record
for this class Of wool in the west
Oregon has become the highest wool
being fortunate in marketing the bulk
of its clip late, and thus getting ad-
vantage of the rise in prices. In Idaho
fine wool did not go over 55 cents, al
though as high as 5s cents was paid for
coarse. Montana wool sold up TO 81 l-2
cents. Washington cleaned up some time
ago and did not get the benefit of the
latest advances, while Utah and Ne
vada sold early while prices were still
relatively low.
In the Willamette valley wool prices
are keeping pace with the climb cast
Of the mountains. The latest sales Of
valley wool were made at 65 cents Be
tween 80 and 80 per cent of the valley
clip, it is estimated, has now been sold.
Local wool men figure that 5000. 900
to 100000 pounds Of Oregon wool OF
all kinds have been sold to date, prob
ably over half the state clip. The Lake
view section is as well sold up as the
valley, while in eastern Oregon, Pilot
