From Provost Marshars Notebooks The Women Room q

brought the conversation around to
the size or our guns, the number of
men in a battery, the sailing OF ships,
the expected arrival OF conveys and
various other topics Of interest to the
German intelligence department One
night at one Of these parties an Of
hcer told of the expected arrival OF
convoy and Dragged that we had
driven the German submarine of the
seas. that they didn't dare to try to
sink any OF our boats and that this
convoy was not even protected by sub
marine chasers.
A Submarine Lay I'm Wait.
This convoy was bound for Bor-
deaux. Bordeaux does not lie on tho
coast, but 10 situated about thirty miles
up the Gironde River. In order to get
into the river the ships have to pass q
bar that can only DO crossed at high
tide. When the convoy mentioned by
the officer arrived at the mouth OF the
river a German submarine was lying In
wait for It and succeeded in sinking
two Of the ships.
At another time these women enter
tanned certain officers from one OF the
American transports that was unload
Ing at Bordeaux. They won the friend
ship OF these officers SO cleverly that
they succeeded in securing an invita-
ton to visit them on board the ship
and have luncheon with them. The In
yitatior was gladly accepted, and after
the luncheon these two officers showed

shown the various instruments used e
locate and to escape from q submarine;
the officers even went so far as to ex-
plain to them the new instruments
used in steering the ship IN q ziEzag
course, The poor fools paid dearly for
their folly. however. for the ship was
met by a German submarine within
200 miles of the coast and sunk. There
was no doubt in our minds but that
these women had In some way sue
ceeded in sending the information out
to the submarine that sank the boat
and that they were responsible for
sending many good men to their death
--men whom they had entertained and
by whom they had been entertained.
We had no direct evidence, however,
and we did not wish to arrest them
until we knew Just how they operated,
who assisted them and who was the
ringleader. II was necessary that we
obtain sufficient evidence to convict
them, as we wanted to make an exam
pie Of the entire number. We could
have arrested them as dangerous to
the public welfare, but that was alto
gether different from a conviction. This
was an offence that was punishable by
shooting, and we wanted to be abso-
iutely sure that we were not sending
innocent people to their death. Then
again. we wanted to get them all; so
we decided to change our tactics and
send one OF our men on the case.

on the outskirts of the town was the
raeetrack. Near was Camp Hunt,
one OF the largest artillery training
camps. where the new guns OF our
army were tested out and the men
were trained in handling them.
As Archerohon was the only place
recreation, naturally on Saturdays and
Sundays the place was thronged with
officers and soldiers. This town also
was frequented by the Americans from
Bordeaux who would go there for a
swim and to spend a pleasant day. II
was not an uncommon occurrence for
thousand Americans to be there on
Sunday. Consequently II was n place
where information needed by the Cor
man High Command could be gathered
easily, and there some of the best
German spies were sent to operate.
Germany when after information
from the American army used women
whenever and wherever possible. The
Germans knew tho we'll known trait
Of the American-that he always
showed all women the same consider
alton which he showed toward his
mother and his sister and that 1t was
almost beyond his conception that a
woman would stoop to the work OF a
spy. This made him easy.
In Archerchon Germany had placed
among other spies three very clever
women. These women were busily
engaged In gathering information and
were m some manner getting II out

Additional suspicion was directed to
this town from the fact that our In
telligence department had discovered
that the German High Command had
detailed information on what was
going on at Camp Hunt; the Germans
knew much about our new guns, the
strength OF the batteries, their loca-
ton and the number Of guns to a
battery. This was very serious mat,
ter, and we were instructed to spare
neither time nor expense in getting
those who were responsible.
We first assigned to the case two OF
our women operatives to watch these

lions between these women and our

NEW enterprise is developing
in Birmingham, England,


which is bringing forthwith a
new race Of craftsmen and is OF spe-
cial interest at the present time. Prior
10 the war the industry of cutting
diamonds was confined almost ex-
clusively to Holland and Belgium. but
endeavors were made some years De-
fore the war to add diamond cutting
to Birmingham's other industries. In
face of great difficulties the effort,
which was started in a very modest
way, was persevered in, and when
Antwerp fell numbers OF refugees
from among the diamond cutters OF
that CITY were provided with means
of pursuing their craft in Birming-
ham.
An interesting report has been pub
lished in the Birmingham Post, which
says:
Through many vicissitudes the in
dustry has gradually gained strength.
The birmingham enterprise has fallen
under the ban of those powerful In
terests whose aim it is to maintain the
industry as the exclusive property OF
Holland and Belgium. Foreign labor
has been withdrawn so far as 1t could
be controlled by those interests and a
"freezing out" policy has been at
tempted in regard to supplies OF
rough diamonds.
Despite the opposition, diamond cut
ting has made steady Roadway in Biz
mingham. The new growth Is all the
moro lusty for the difficulties 1t has
end prarpnp1a Ar the
outset It was dependent upon the MD
of Continental experts and Continental
equipment, so closely had the craft
been preserved. Now IL may be said
to be strong enough to stand alone
for during the past seven or eight
years a number OF Birmingham boys
have been trained to the work, and
more recently they have been reen-
forced by discharged and disabled men
from the army who have shown apu-
tude for it. Diamond outing has got
beyond its earlier exotic character, and
If now a local industry in which the
homebred boys may find career.
Not that II is anything like as big a
development as II might be. Birming-
ham Jewellers still look to the Con-
tinent for the vast bulk OF the
diamonds they set and viii continue
to do so. In fact. II Is not planned tc
make war on Il diamond cutters OF
Holland and Belgium, whose great
prestige has been worthily won. But
II Birmingham hands and brains are
equal to the work there Is no reason

tention OF women. This officer may
have a sweetheart in the United States,
so we will call him Jones. Jones was
instructed to cultivate the acquaint-
ance Of these women and, IL possible,
to secure their story. He proceeded to
the town, secured an adjoining room
in the same hotel and gave out as his
reason for stopping there so long that
he had been gassed and sent there TO
recover. He was we'll supplied with
money and was soon successful in be-
coming acquainted with these women.
He installed a dictagraph IN their

their work the conversations were not

The New Diamond Centre

Those who we're concerned to Defeat
the endeavor to establish the industry
in Birmingham have inferred that a
mean advantage has been taken OF. tho
occasion afforded by the war, that
under the guise Of succoring the
diamond cutters driven forth from
Belgium an attempt was made treech-
erously to transplant their industry.
This is not true. The Introduction Of
diamond cutting into Birmingham was
not prompted by the war. 1t preceded
the war by some years and was
already advancing steadily In 1914
A factory specially designed for
diamond cutting was erected on Hook
ley Hill and boys from the local
schools were learning the craft there
under the direction of competent
workers from abroad The factory Is
OF ferroconcrete, so constructed as to
give the maximum rigidity. as vibra-
ton is fatal TO proficiency in diamond
cutting. There is nothing very,
elaborate about the plant. The lap-
ping is done by means OF electrically
operated metal disks, which revolve
rapidly on the bench at which the
lapidarist sits. He will have four or
I'VE stones in hand at once. Each of
them Is held tight either in q mechani-'
cal holder or in a bed of lead alloy,
prepared by an attendant boy and
secured to tool heavy enough to
keep the diamond IN position on the
revolving table. The friction grinds
the facets--usually ffty-eight In num-
boron the stone, the process being
assisted by emery powder and olive OF =
A preliminary operation and one
which Is not 30 simple as II looks is
That OF reducing the rough stones 20 a
circular shape. This Is done on the
diamond cut diamond principle. While

stone another stone is held in contact
with It and manipulated by an opera
