Washington, July 2l.-A story of the

ton among German officers of a vendetta
aimed at the lives of the traitors was
brought 10 light with the arrival at New

of war consigned to the director of mil
itary intelligence, Washington, D. c."
According to information here the mys-
FERROUS prisoners who landed from the
steamship Agamemnon under heavy guard
formerly were German officers of high
rank, occupying positions of great re-
sronsibility under Won Hindenburg. Be-
fore the inauguration of the American

upon them, through Inducements which
have not been dlvulged, to deliver plans
of the German general staff covering the
proposed movements on the western
front, probable lines of retreat, points at
which stands would be made and other
detailed information of inestimable value
With these plans before him, General
Pershing was able to lay out his cam
paign with great freedom. and It is be-
lieved that as a result was to cut the cost
of the American advance practically in

Shannon & CnSLetter

New York, July H.-After a good deal
of irregularity during the early trad

prices considerably off from the best

extract from private news any encour-

the trade demand was dominant or al
