this country, made in the serial photo
drama, "The Eagles Eye" presented
by The Wharton's, the widely known
producers of successful serials, dis
closes a secret chapter in the history
of the destruction Of the Lusitania
and how the plan to sink this ship
was aided by Imperial Germany's
agents in this country.
This attraction has been booked at
the Opera House, and the first cpl
sode, called "The Hidden DEATH" will
be presented tonight. This will be
followed each week by an episode
equally as sensational in revelations
of secret alien spy activities.
The second episode is called "The
Naval Ball Conspiracy" It reveals
how alien spies plotted to blow up
the Hotel Ansonia in New York the
night of the ball preceding the re-
view Of the Atlantic Fleet by the
President. The success Of this plot
would have meant death Of a large
number of people and practically the
destruction Of hundreds of the lead
ing officers of the United States
Navy.
The third episode is entitled "The
Plot Against the Fleet" It reveals
the details Of a conspiracy to bottle
up the great Atlantic Fleet in New
York Harbor by sinking the flagship
in the Narrows on its way to sea,
after the review by the President.
The intent of the Hotel Ansonia plot
and that to destroy the flagship, both
Of which were frustrated by the
Secret Service, was to create a reign
Of terror in the United States.
The conspiracy to destroy the
Hotel Ansonia and the plot against
the fleet were not matters of public
knowledge until the publication of
this picture. Chief Flynn's revela-
tons in this photo drama are the first
authoritative intimations the people
ever had that these conspiracies were
entered into by Imperial Germans
desperate emissaries ind were de-
tected and frustrated by the Secret
Service.
Up to that time, very few people
in this country had heard of the Lusi-
tania medal. A replica is in the pos
session of Chief Flynn and is shown
in the first episode Of ''The Eagles
Eye" This medal was made to COM
memorate the sinking Of the great
liner and gives the date Of its de-
struction as May 5, 1915, and was
issued prior to that date.
The Lusitania was delayed in sail
ing from New York from Thursday
until Saturday, May 1, and did not
reach the point where the submarines
lay in wait for her till May z, two
days later than the medal is dated.
But this made no difference. Con-
fdent that the steamship would be
sunk, the medal was issued dated
May 5, 1915, two days before the
tragedy in which 1,198 people per
ished actually occurred.
This medal indicates the feeling
the Imperial German war lords en-
deavored to inculcate into the minds
of their people in their war Of fright
fulness.
