ALLEGED SPIES ARRESTED

New York, July 6.--Agents for the
Department. Of Justice this afternoon
arrested two Germans, one reputed to
be paymaster for the German spy
system in this country, and the other
alleged to have been formerly asso-
ciated with Capt. Franz Won Papen, at
one time military attache at the Ger
man embassy in Washington.
The prisoners were removed to the
Ellis Island immigration station.
They are accused of being alien enc
mics to the United States. They arc
described as Carl Heynen, a German
organizer and an authority on Mexi-
can affairs, and F. A Burgemeistcr,
the latter an alleged spy paymaster.
Heyman was once German consul at
Mexico City and prior to that con-
nected with the Hamburg American
line.
The federal agents who made the
| arrests said the men were taken into
custody by order Of the authorities in
Washington. Heynan and Burgemeis-
|
Hamburg American line building,
once occupied by Dr.. Heinrich F. AL
bert, formerly commercial attachc of
the German embassy in Washington
and representative of the Deutchcs
Bank of Berlin.
DR.. Albert was rcputed to be chief
financial representative Of Germany in
the United States and his name was
linked repeatedly with the German
proganda. When DR.. Albert and Won
Papen left this country federal agents
were aware that Hcynen and Bur
gemcister had their headquarters in
DR.. Albert's old Offices, but no at
tempt was made to disturb them until
today.
When the war began Burgcmeistcr
turned up as l'r Albert's private So
retary and confidential man. Federal
agents alluded to Burgcmcister today
as the "boss paymastcr Of the German
spy system i'm this country."
Federal authorities look on Hcyncn
as an organizer Of no mean ability.
He is credited with having formed,
under direction Of Won Papcn and Dr..
Albert, the Bridgeport Projcctilc Com
pany, which it is alleged, was shown
by papers seized frem Won Papcn by
the British when he arrived at Fal-
mouth January S, 1916, to have been
run in the interest of Germany.

GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATES
Fires in Grain Elevators Occurring
Too Frequently.

Washington, July 6.--Burning of q
large number Of grain elevators in
the Middle West recently has prompt
ed the government to start an in
vestlgation to determine if German
influences are responsible Fire in
surance companies, disturbed at the
frequency of the fires, are assisting
government agents in the inquiry.
The National Board of Fire Un-
derwriters, it was learned today, has
suggested a set of strict regulations
for protection of elevators which pro-
vide among other things for stock
AIDES and armed guards.
The regulations suggested by the
board of underwriters are as follows:
"Guards on duty at all times,
whether military, municipal or pri-
vate, and the following features. to
provide as incidental to their work:
"Barbed wire fences inclosing items
to be protected, where practicable, or
other suitable maIl-tight enclosure.
"Flood lights SO arranged and main
tained as to light the enclosed area
and immediate water front.
Guards, if not military, to be
sworn in as special officers of city,
county or State.
Guards, if not military, to be un-
der a military officer having power
Of dismissal.
"a system of Identification of all
persons entering premises.
Inside private protection of all
property of the class according to the
standard of the board of underwrit-
ers and static departments"

GERMANY ON EVE OF
CREAL UPHEAVAL
Developments ID FONT to Realignment
in Favor of Electoral and Par
liamentary Reforms.
GREAT CHANGES EXPECTED
Monday May Mark Opening of One
of Most Memorable Sessions
Of Reichstag.

Berlin, July 7.-(Saturday.)-Un-
less present indications fall in the
next few days the German Empire is
on the eve of a momentous if not his
torical parliamentary upheaval. De-
velopments under the gilded dome of
the Reichstag building in the last for
ey-eight hours point squarely to a sig
nificant realignment in favor of the
sweeping electoral and parliamentary
reforms, in spite of the stubborn re-
sistance of the reactionary old guard.
Although the sessions of the main
committee and the constitutional COM
mittee have been of an executive ma
ture, the press comments in this
mornings papers permit the interfer-
ence that the discussions of vital sub
jects of governmental policy frequent
ly reached the boiling point.
Gravely Significant.
That they have been of gravely sig
nificant import is Indicated clearly by
the sudden decision to postpone the
Saturday preliminary session, which
was to have marked opening of the
general debate and the expected sur
prise of Chancellor von Bethmann-
Hollweg. The absence of the chan
cellor from the sessions in the last
few days has caused general COM
ment. Late yesterday it was an
nounced that the desire of the chan
cellor to inform himself more thor
oughly on the nature of the commit
tees was responsible for the delay of
the general sessions.
Monday will mark the inauguration
of what promises to be one of the
most memorable parliamentary ses-
sions in the history OF the empire.
The chancellor was present yester-
day when the committee convened.
All the Reichstag factions remained
in individual groups until late last
night to decide what line of action
should be taken.

London, July G.-Dcclaration which

chancellor, DR.. Won Bethmann- Holl-
veg, in his commencement speech be-
fore the Reichstag, according to Ger
man sources Of information at The
Hague, as quoted by the Central News
correspondent there. This changed
attitude is said to be the outcome of
the conviction that all hopes Of sep
arate peace with Russia must be aban-
doned and that Russian offensive
must be faced.

leadership, finesse in execution and
qulckness of decision, but that Amer
