far-away little voice that told me
how near my dear Neal still was
to the little girl who had haughtily
called him Lieutenant Hyland"
and who had boxed his ears when
he took her in his arms. Shall I
go on with my story, Anne?"
"Yes, dear. But don't feel it's
such a tragic story. You have lost

Don't bring Jim into this" cried
Phoebe, wildly. He isn't in 1t at

all right and that he'll take 1t OF

L0Ue and Intrigue Mingle
in the Story of Karl Muck
DepOrted OrchestruLea
By FERI FELIX WEISS,
u. S. Secret Sc rvice Agent.

On March 2S, accompanied by an
agent OF the department, visited
SO Fenway, Boston. and in the alb
sence Of Mrs. Muck, searched the
Muck mansion thoroughly, work
ing until midnight, and among
many other important documents 1
found German passport, in the
drawer of Muck's working desk.
1t showed conclusively that the
Berlin police that had issued the
passport, ITO GO TO A FOREIGN
LAND" had considered him a Ger
man 1t also showed that he had
travelled In Russia with that Ger
man passport. Yet in spite Of this
quite a few people protested against
his internment. "for he was Swiss
subject"
Among other letters I found one
bearing the address, w. Kurfurs-
tendens. 1t bore in the left-hand
corner, and also on the envelope a
seal with the Imperial German
eagle, and the inscription, Winged
adjutant of his Majesty the Kaiser
and King" appeared in the circle.
The letter read:
Most Esteemed DR.. Muck:
You wanted to be here the ssc-
ond half Of September, and in-
tended visiting me. l am going to
travel on the goth with his Majes-
ty to Rominsten and will not re-
turn till the middle of October
spoke with Minister, Dr.
Schmidt. When you are here.
please go to him, as he has a lot
to talk over with you. Good luck
for your voyage and many greet
ings for Mrs. Muck.
Ny wife is here and would be
pleased to see you yet. Please let
me have your address in Boston.
Always your devoted.
(Signed) WILHELM MELIUS.
During the search 1 also found
correspondence exchanged between
Muck and many rabid German prop
agandists and out-and-out German
spies. He has been contributing
freely to all German propaganda
funds. / also ran across a number
of envelopes with German. Austrian.
and Dutch banknotes, lying loose
in envelopes.
And through other documents it
was proven that Muck was the re-
cipient of propaganda fund to
which contributions poured in from
Germans all over the world. ! also
ran across a satChel in which there
was a set of cuff buttons with the
initial w" and an imperial crown
laid out in diamonds. There was
also stickpin with the initials
"a" and "N'' interviewer, and a
crown, representing probably, a
present from the Kaiserine- Augusta
Victoria.
But it must not be understood
that our bureau held this latter
article as discriminating against
Karl Muck; it only showed that
Karl Muck was German and not a
citizen of Switzerland.
And finally before | close this cpl
sode / must deal with another un-
forgivable offense of DR.. Muck,
but l must do this very super
ficially, for it is very delicate sub
Ject-
1t came to the knowledge of the
Government that this DR.. Muck, the
cultured. coddled. and would-be re-
fined exponent of art, has been in
ducing 'unclean" women to visit
Camp Devens and tempt our boys,
thousands OF whom were gathered
there from all over the country to
be trained and sent to France to
put the finishing touch to the
Kaiser's tottering armies. But In
pursuance ct eur American codes
The Washington times., 1919-12-27

of laws the evidence given by these
women could not be admitted.
Any other Government except the
United States would have assigned
several of these women to CO.
operate with the agents of the
secret police. with a view of trap
ping the accused, but the depart
ment rules were that no representa-
tive of the Government should re-
sort to such continental methods.
even for the sake of finding with
the goods the most dangerous spy.
And DR.. Muck is now perhaps in
his beloved Fatherland and at least
one Of his victims is rueing the day
on which she met this fiend in hu-
man form.
