AMAZING STORY OF
GERNAN-IRISH PLOTS

day, April "a. but, as the world is
aware. German support miscarried
and it ended in complete failure.
1T became clear very soon after
that Sim Fein leaders again were
asking Germany for help. On June
II, there was a message from Berlin
to Washington referring to 'A259 of
May g. a message which is missing,
and saying that Germany was per-
fectly ready to give further help if
the Irish only would say what sort
of help they required.
On June 16. Won Bernstorff had
sent a dispatch giving an account Of
the rebellion and stating that 1000
pounds has been provided for the
defense Of Easement. On July rs. he
gave futher news from Ireland and
explained that the work Of reorgan-
lz1ng the rebels was making good
progress and that their lack of money
had been remedied by him.
"On September 8. in a dispatch to
Berlin. he enclosed a memorandum
from a person called the Irish revo-
luton director resident in America,
which contained detailed proposals
for a fresh rising, contingent upon
the sending by Germany of an 'expe-
to cover a landing
The German government was to
fix the time and, as an inducement,
the advantage of having submarines
and Zeppelin bases in west Ireland
was insisted upon. Won Bernstorff
evidently was having difficulty with
his tools, for on October "a, he warn
ed his government not to allow a
certain Captain Boohm, then a resi-
dent of Rotterdam. to write to Irish
men in America, since his letters
were apt to go to the wrong people.
Later Captain. Boohm was arrested
by us in British waters
1--WE again find Won Bernstorff, on
December 4, attaching a note sur
reptittously to message passed by
the American government, in which
he mentioned that the Irish leaders
in America were pressing for an
answer to their proposal Of Septen-
Der 8. On the last day Of 1918 For
eign Secretary Zimmerman inform
ed him of quantities Of munitions
which it was proposed to land be-
tween Feb. 81 and Is. 1917. He add
ed that it was impossible to send
German troops"
Communication Broken.
After Americas entrance into
the war, communication ~betWeen
the German government and the
Sinn Fem party was broken temper
arily.
"A clue to the new line Of com
munication was obtained subse-
quently and has been followed UP
actively.
For some considerable time it
was difficult to obtain accurate in
formation as to German Sim Fein
plans, but about April, 1918, it was
ascertained that a plan for landing
arms in Ireland was ripe, and that
the Gegmans only awaited definite
information from Ireland as to the
time, place and date.
THE British authorities were
able to warn the Irish command re-
gardtng the probable landing of an
agent Of Germany from a submarine.
The agent actually landed on April
IL and was arrested.
THE new rising depended largely
upon the landing of munitions from
submarines and there is evidence to
show that it was planned to follow
a successful German offensive in the
west and was to take place at a

THE Moldavia listed to port, but
righted herself and ran on for about
Is minutes to avoid being hit again.
Then she began to sink steadily. Or
ders were given to lower the boats
and RATS and we got off.
'Destroyers had been circling
around us all the time and as soon
as the Moldavia was struck they
dropped several depth charges. No
second torpedo was fired and we
saw nothing of the submarine. We
remained in the lifeboats until the
ship sank, when we were taken on
board the destroyers. '.".
"As soon as the men got aboard
the boats and RATS they began
laughing and singing. and when the
ship sank they gave three cheers.
"Of the 81 (56?) missing, two are
corporals and the others priyates. I
believe all were killed by the ex-

13 New Influenza
Cases Reported
Here Yesterda,

Thirteen additional cases of Spanish
influenza were reported to the Depart
ment of Health yesterday. All of the
cases, which were very mild, were taken
to the Kingston Avenue Hospital. in
Brooklyn, for treatment The patients
are all naval men, taken from a vessel
lying in the Erie Basin
Commiss ioner Copeland of the De
partment of Health reiterated his state
ment that there is no cause for alarm
over the appearance oil this disease
here, but there is need for every one
to take more than ordinary care of his
or her general physical condition, for
1t is in the case of persons whose vital
lty is below normal that the disease is
best able to secure a foothold
The commissioner is convinced that
this so-called new disease is not a new
disease at all, but simply a recurrence
of what he describes as the "old-fash-
ioned Influenza"
Since judy 1s5 cases have been
found here. The disease in itself is a
very trif1ing affliction. Ik chief dan
ger lies in a common complication.
pneumonia. This developed in the
cases of three patients here Sunday

you have a cough or cold and a touch
of high fever and feel miserable gen
orally, you have the Spanish influenza
Surgeon General Blue of the Public
Health Service declared to-day in an
nouncing that the ailment probably
will spread all over the country within
the next six weeks
Go home and to bed, call your family
physician and don't leave the house
until the doctor gives you permission
is the advice Surgeon General Blue
gives to all who arc in the grip of
the influenza germ.
"The only way to prevent the spread
OF the Influenza" he said, "is com
plete stopping of travel and this is i'm
possible. The epidemic can be les
sened, however, if those having the all
ment will desist from minging with
others and will place themselves in
the hands of competent physicians for
home treatment"

Reed Released When
Bond Is Cut $4,000

John Reed. writer and self appointed
Consul General of the Trotzky govern
ment in New York. who has been in
the Tombs since Saturday night be-
cause of his inability to give $4,000
bail pending a hearing on charges Of
uttering scurrlous language about the
military establishment, was released
yesterday by United States Commits
sioner Hitchcock when surety Of $4,000
was procured
When Reed was arraigned before the
commissioner to ask that his bail be
reduced from $4,000 to $4,000, Assist
ant United States Attorney Earl
Barnes. who has charge of the prosecu-
ton. opposed the reduction. He said
Reed took advantage of the fact that
jury had disagreed when he was tried
with the editors of the Masses" and
seemed determined to continue voicing
the same ideas, the only difference
being that his plan was now to make
speeches and not to write.
Reed then assured the commissioner
that if the bail were reduced he would
not make any remarks concerning the
military that the Federal autho horities
could take exception to- With this un-
derstanding he was released
The writer's total bail is now $500,
as he is also under $4,000 on the
Masses" indictment. He was in Rus
sia when the "Masses" case was tried.

More Vacancies

Governor Whitman, at the st. Regis
last night, said the new draft order
making men between eighteen and
twcnty-onc and thirty-on and forty
five liable for military duty had shot
to pieces his draft boards all over the
state. Ever since the order was issued,
the Governor said, he had been work
ing early and late to rcorganizc the
boards. Of the 500 on the original
boards only 700 are available. as the
Governor after consulting with the
War Department. has decided that it
would not be wise to continue on the
draft age.
In order to find 1.1OO new mon for
the draft boards the Governor has
called on every Supreme Court judge
in the state TO submit names for con-
sideration. He said yesterday that the
responses thus far are satisfactory,
but there is still q great deal Of hunt
ing to do before the boards are fully
reorganizcd and ready to go on with
the new work
In commenting again yesterday on
the Austrian peace fcelcr, Governor
Whitman said:
MY HilltuUc is Clearly SET IOItH ny

terms laid down by General Grant at
Fort Donclson unconditional surrcn-
der. | am sure that the American peo
pie will not stand for any halfway

that the fathers and mothers of our

conferences with Will II. Hays, chair
man of the Republican National Com
mittee; George w. Perkins, Charles
Bulkley Hubbell, president of the Pub

Chilvers and John ]. Lyons.
Senator William M. Calder said yes
terday that he would take the stump
after October l. when Congress is cx-
pccted to adjourn.
"Governor Whitman and the other
candidates on the State ticket will be
elected by pluraities in the neighbor-
hood Of 100000" said Senator Calder.
"The splendid record of the State Ad-
ministration will commend it to the
people for another term

Disloyal Comment

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-Judge La

to-day suggesting lrow best to handle

loyal writings. The statement follows:
Zone Of the New York papers this

Willard relative to the objections which
have been raised to the last issue OF
THE Nation which in the form it ap-
pears is misleading. The Postmaster
General is now considering complaints
against several articles in that issue

torial entitled The One Thing Need

which is ns follows:

by John Reed, for which he was arrest
cd the next day, or that of Debs some
weeks ago, or that of Scott Nearng's
recurring offences, or the anti-war
uttcranccs of the Socialist party, or Of
library books. or of The Nation being
barred from the mails, there al ises this
problems: How shall we give the news
of Gisloyalty without giving still fur
ther circulation to the words of sed-
tion in our campaign against enemies
within?
"Although it was necessary to re-
produce examples of sediton literally
in order to make loyal people aware
of the arts of disloyalty and reconcile
public sentiment to restraints upon
free speech in war time, our feeling
is that the necessity has passed
T1,n AL,
will be better to avoid literal treatment
of seditious utteranccs and simply say
in such cases as Reed and Nearing and
The Nation that they attacked our
Allies or denounced the draft, or dis
paragcd the war, adding at the end
footnotc that the text of the matter
has been forwarded to the government
