"Spy"Letters
Just Missiues
OfDan Cupid
-Four New York Suspects Not
to Be Held as Helpers of
the Enemy,

WASHINGTON, March 20-Invesu-
cation has convinced the department OF
justice that the two Women and the two
men claiming French citizenship, re-
Gently arrested in New York on sus-
picion of connection with the German
spy ring, can only be classcd as spies.
On this conclusion they will be de-
ported.
Just Love Letters
The four under arrest in New York
gave their names as Madame Dcs Pima
Davidoyitch Storch Madame Elizabeth
Charlotte Nix, Baron Henri de BeIville
and Count Robert de Clairmont.
II is now disclosed that what were
thought to be the mysterious code let
ters found in a safe deposit box Of one
OF those under arrest were love epistleS
couchcd in gentle terms with hidden
meanings.
Too Complicated to Continue.
Officials here declare that the gov
crnment has no definite evidence Of
spying but that the complicated tangle
of personal relations with men high in
official and social circles makes il ex-
pedient TO deport them 1t has never
been disclosed fully where any of the
four got the money, although II is now
said that one of the women had some
wealth of her own.
For many months the four have been
under surveillance.

SOCIALIST VOTE
IN WISCONSIN
JUMPS FIvE-F0LD
LenrOot Apparently Wins G, 0,
P, Senatorial Nomination,
BERGER WINS MILWAUKEE
Davies Scores Big Victory for
Democratic HOnorS,

MILWAUKEE,. March 0.-out-
standing features Of yesterdays loyalty
primary were a fiye.iold increase In
the socialist vote, the overwhelming
victory OF Joseph +. Davies for the
democratic senatorial nomination and
the close race between Irvine L. Len
root, the loyalSt candidate, and James
Thompson. who carried the banner OF
the La Toilette republicans in the sena-
torial race OF that party.
Lenroot Is Victor.
As scattered returns from the pri-
mary dribbled slowly in, the impression
grew that Congressman Lenroot OF Su-
perior had defeated James Thompson.
With thirteen counties unheard from at
| o'clock p. M, Lenroots lead approxi-
mated 1000. II was said by analysts
that the missing counties would at least
give Lenroot an even break, five OF them
being in the congressional districts
which have usually given him large
majorities and probably would increase
his lead.
Victor Z. Berger, socialist, run
ming independently, carried Mil
waukee county by a vote equal to
that Of Lenroot and Thompson. The
city vote, practically complete, was:
Berger, ist69; Thompson, e,ei7j
Lenroot, 6,isi.
Lenroct supporters maintained that
what advantage there was on returns
up to II o'clock rested with Lenroot.
Days Before Decision.
II appeared that Lenrooi's home dis
trict would give him a majority suf-
fcient to overcome that of Thompson
in the city ard county of Milwaukee.
1t may be days before the deciding
votes are in from the back-woods.
Socialist Vote Big in City.
In Milwaukee the socialist vote for
officers and aldermen in the
primary, was even more
Mayor Hoan, socialist re-
ceived the highest number of votes OF
any of the four candidates, estimated
closely at 2082j. Braman, republican,,
was his nearest opponent, with l6l2J.
Damman, republican and Park, demo-
crat, polled respectively 4,oO5 and l,l27.
Under the non-partisan primary system
the two receiving the highest number OF
votes become the candidates at the regu-
