guard, and a court was convened OF
July 20 to try him on charges which
were briefly summarized as follows:
i. As an American and a private
citizen he engaged in a campaign OF
propaganda of and for the purpose OF
weakening the military power and
force of the United States army and
the armies of the allies, and prepared
documents with the object of weak
ening the morale and fighting eff
cheney of said forces.
2. AT Dusseldorf, Germany, in Feb
ruary, 1919, he composed a certain
document and caused 5000 copies
thereof, in the form Of a handful, to
be printed and turned over to a men,
Der or the army of the United States
for distribution among the soldiers of
said army then within the territory of
the German empire.
The trial was about to start when a
telegram was received from Paris or
dering a p~ostponement pending the
arrival of the judge advocate of the
eXpeditionary forces. No one at Cob
LEM had the slightest intimation that
Paris headquarters was interested in
the case. 1t was a most unusual pro-
cedure. Officers of the military in
telligence who worked the case up
were as greatly surprised as officers
of the judge advocate generals de-
partment, who expected a speedy ver-
dict.
On July 20 the judge advocate gen.
eral completed his report. We quote
it in part:
THE case against Minor at present
amounts to this: He is charged with
as serious an offense as a man can
commit, but there is only one witness
aginst him-Siegfried. / thoroughly
believe Minor to be guilty, but if |
were sitting on a court | would not
vote guilty on the evidence now avail
Iable-the testimony of one man only,
and that man acting in the character
OF a detective and informer. If tes-
timony were substantially corroborat-
ed by other witnesses, ] believe a con-
viction would be justified. An Of
that is so serious should, in or
der to justify conviction by a court
reviewing authority, be supported by
the strongest proof, and since this Is a
case in which a dangerous element in
the United States has the greatest in
|~terest, it had better not be tried at
all unless there is proof which fully
warrants conviction. An acquittal, a
disapproved conviction. or an approx
ed conviction on anything short of
conclusive evidence would be injur-
ious to the cause of good government.
It should be known within a week or
ten days at the furthest, / think, whe-
Their substantial Confederation of Sieg-
fried's testimony can be had, and If 1t
can, I think Minor should be tried. IF
confederation can not be had, / think
it would be better to dismiss the
case.''

a legal officer of the American army

(Harvey's Weekly


ON July 81 the senate adopted q
,asolution calling Upon the war de-
rartment for a report covering the
case of Robert A. Minor, an American
arrested in Paris on June s, charged
with attempting to spread sedition in
the American army of occupation and
subsequently released without trial
No reply was received from the de-
partment and the senate on October 10
nsssed a second resolution covering
the same subject.
A few days ago Secretary Baker
transmitted a reply to the senate,
stating that the original answer had
gone astray in the mails, a circum =
stance not surprising.
From Secretary Bakers letter it
appears that the military intelligence
made painstaking efforts to apprehend
persons responsible for spreading boil
shevik doctrines among our troops
Finally Sergeant Siegfried, a trusted
officer Of intelligence, was sent to
Dusseldorf camouflaged as a deserter
from the American army. There he
met and insinuated himself into the
confidence of Minor and his associate.
an Englishman named Price, who
we're directing the activities of the
Spartacans, the German bolshevists.
We quote from Secretary Bakers
letter:
'Minor stated that he was a car
toonist by profession, formerly On the
staff of the New York Call, and that in
1915 and 1916 he had made himself
conspicuous through his writings
about Russia and other European
countries, and in 1917 participated in
a publicity campaign in favor of
Thomas Mooney, and took part, in
San Francisco, in organizing anti
draft demonstrations.
"At another meeting Minor and
Price stated that they had been work.
ing together in Russia, printing an
English newspaper for the bolshevik
cause, which they had distributed
among the British and American
troops by aviators.
"At a later meeting in the office Of
Seidel, a Spartacist leader, Minor
volunteered, at the request of Meta
Flip, a woman at the head of the
propaganda work, to prepare a pam
phlet for distribution.
"At the next meeting he presented
a typewriter document dealing with
these questions which was read by
informant and her given to Meta
Flip who had it printed. Later in
formant was given about 5000 copies
troops. This pamphlet was entitled
Why American Soldiers Are in Eur.
ope.' Minor warned informant ID be
very careful, as the American army
might have intelligence men in pus-
seldorf."
OF course Sergeant Siegfried deliv-
cred the evidence to his superiors at
Coblenz, and a prima facie case was
made against Minor, but as he was in
unoccupied German territory the mil
itary intelligence could not lay its
hands on him.
The Spartacist movement flickered
out, and Minor made his way to Par
is, where the syndicalists were busy
trying to wreck what the Germans
had left Of the French transportation

The next afternoon Irma Barton

then that Everett had been with her
the evening before. yet I greeted her
cordially. I had told Hetty to ask her
to come upstairs for a moment
would ask her what she had intended
to tell me the day 1 had luncheon
with her.
"I was so sorry to hear of your
accident, Mrs. Graham" she said in
greeting. Everett told me you

So we chatted a while. Then l re-

wanted to say something to me, and
had wone home without knowing
what it was.

a moment.

they yielded to the revolutionist ele-

and permitted a series of strikes dis
astrous to production to be called. they
would destroy their own influence and
insure the disintegration of the labor
