ERROR DISCLOSED
IN REPORT OF HEARINGS
Capt. Lester Did Not State That
Viereck, Shortly After Protest of
Loyalty, Employed Dickinson.

Printing OF the official transcript of
testimony of Capt. Z. G. Lester OF
the Army intelligence service before
the Senate committee investigating
German propaganda has disclosed an
error in the Associated press report
of statements by Capt. Lester regard
ing the employment of J. J. Dickinson
in Washington by George Sylvester
Viereck before the United States en-
tered the war.
Capt. Lester testified that Dickin-
son was employed in 1916 and in re-
Spouse to questions stated there was
nothing in his Investigation to show
any German activities by Dickinson
after February 1917.
The error. occurring in the report
of discussion by Capt. Lester of a
letter written to President Wilson
after the United States went TO war.
in which Viereck protested loyalty,
attributed TO the witness the state
ment that II was only n short time
after writing this letter that Niereck
came to Washington and employed
Dickinson as his secret agent to OBJ
tain information from the United
States. The transcript shows that
Dickinson's employment was dis
cussed after the reference to the let
ter, but that Capt. Lester did not con
meet the two incidents.
Mr.. Dickinson appeared before the
committee on January II at his own
request and testified that he was en-
ployed by Viereck to write articles
for the Fatherland in 1916 and that
he severed the connection when the
United States broke relations with
Germany

Rejoicing in the rumor that his rt:gi-
ment will return home as President
Wilson's guard of honor. Winfield
Lynn of Washington writes to his
sister telling how sweet is the thought
of coming back TO America to himself
and all his comrades. He fought with
his regiment at Argonne and helped
chase the Germans into Sedan.
THE latest rumor now is that we
guard of honor and that the 42d will
parade in New York and Washington"
writes the enthusiastic soldier, while
overlooking the Rhine in German
territory occupied by the United
States.

soldier. ito tell your friends to get
their seats early If they want to see
some real fighting men,"
The young fighter seems to have a
contempt for influenza. In one of his
letters he says that all the patients
in the hospital have it, but it's really
nothing owing to their fine physical
condition"
Wrltlng from Neuenahar, Germany,
he tells of the great distance trav-
eled by the American Army of occu-
patton since the armistice was signed.
Chased Huns Into Sedan.
You all heard OF the Americans
great victory in Argonne woods.
Well. we were all there and our di-
vision was the one that chased the
Germans into Sedan" Then he tells
of being received by the President
upon Americans by the officers of
the country that they had saved from
the Hun heel.
Waxing humorous. the District SOL
der says he is going to teach his
friends how to make stew when he
returns to his home.

Shipments May Beat Records.

According to the present indications.
the crop which will be shipped into
the Baltimore market during the on
coming receiving season will be
larger than any that has heretofore
ever been received at this port This
is due to the fact that the prices held
up last year at the time the farmer
was planting his crop. and there was
every possible opportunity for him to
put in the ground any number of
plants that he desired.
If the French market opens. as
there is every indication that it
should, the Maryland farmer stands
to reap a harvest for his tobacco, and
at the same time get his money back
on his wheat, which he must plant in
order to grow grass for his stock to
work his land.

tobacco which arrives in this port on
the baywise steamers comes from the

which left the Baltimore and Ohio
storage warehouse at Fells Point, Can

months past there has been con-
gestion of tobacco in this port, and
owing to a state regulation the bay
wise steamers have had an en- bargo
placed upon them which prevented a
number of these vessels from bring
ing any tobacco to this city consign-
ed by growers along the routes of the
waterways of the bay and its tribu-
taries. For several months no boat
was allowed to bring any tobacco
here and then the embargo was prac-
tically lifted and each boat was al
loved to bring fifty hogsheads on each

him down in Vienna. personal witness

gainings that constituted the historic
congress of Vienna. The book is

the proceedings of that congress. In
formal letters. intimate disclosures,
official reports. jottings from diaries,
leakings from private and prelimi-
nary deliberations-these are the sub
stance OF this study, and these by
virtue of their originally private
character as well as by virtue of
their authoritative source give a liv-
ing picture of that event whose pur-
pose was to provide the great powers
of Europe with a new deal after the
weird sleight- of-hand game that
Napoleon played upon the opposing
powers. Historic figures come to life
