Sentiment Is Seen in Mexico.
Ell Paso, Tex, July 6.-Since the
proiallv campaign in Mexico was
first started by Ell Universal in Mex
leo City, the sentiment favoring the
allies has reached northern Mexico,
and during the past 80 days a well
defined movement favoring an open
break with Germany and the align
ment of Mexico on the side Of the
entente allies has developed. This
has been in spite of the pro-Ger-
man sentiments published daily in
Chihuahua city and in papers he
lieyed to be subsidized by the Ger
mans elsewhere in the north.
A reheetio of this. sentiment was
seen recently in the statement by
Gen. Francisco Gonzales, acting COM
mander-in-chief of the northwestern
military zone, with headquarters at
Chihuahua. He was overcharged by
the German firm of Ketelsen and
Deeeteau for some padlocks. The
manager was arrested and placed in
the penitentiary. The German consul
made a demand for his release Tin

government and the kaiser" accord

present at the time.

FERRETING OUT SPIES.
German Marine Insurance COM
panies Believed to Have Impaired
Information.

While ali official Washington was
puzzling it's head yesterday in an
effort to determine how German
spies could obtain information of the
movements of our troops, their
strength and other details, a letter
received by high official from
Pittsburgh, showed how, through
their marine insurance agencies the
Germans are able to learn the in
most details of American plans.
1t seems that the steamer Man
churia, carrying ammunition and
supplies for England, left New York
with the transport fleet. In the
Narrows she collided with barge
and hole was stove in her side,
nccessitating Bleaching her.
The reinsurance on the Manchu-
ria had been placed with German
companies. They sent their men
out to inspect the ship. In going to
the Manchura these agents passed
the transport fleet, then ready to
sail.
