DIR. Albert the Mint.
In this connection it is appropo
to begin this series of exposes with tn
case of Herr Geheimrat DR.. Albert
fiscal agent to the United States O
the Imperial German government. Fo
everyone must remember the sensa
tional revelation that DR.. Albert wa
concerned in a plot to embarrass tn
munitions industry in America pub
lished in the newspapers about tn
first of August, 1915.

The bag also contained authorizatio
