Cleveland Bergdoll, draft evader, planned an escape from custody, Attorney Gem eral Palmer declared in a statement to- night dsclaiming responsibility on the part of the department of justice for cir cumstances which permitted Bergdoll 10 get away. Information that a plot with an escape in view was under way, MT Palmer said was first obtained by the army authorities and was given by them to his department.
 The department of justice received a letter from one of it's special agents, dated April 30. MT. Palmer added, ito the effect that Bergdoll would make ap- plication for a writ of habeas corpus which would take him temporarily out of the custody of the war department and place him in the custody of marshal or ceedings he would attempt to make his his bail bond.
 The bureau of investigation made its plans, therefore, to prevent any escape in case of application for writ of habess corpus. No such application was ever made and Bergdoll did not come within the jurisdiction of the department of jus tice in any manner that would warrant our interference
 "At the time of Bergdolrs escape he was in the jurisdiction and custody of the war department. The information em- bodied in the letter above referred to first came to the attention of one of the of- ficers of the military intelligence divls- ion of the war department who communi- cated the information to our agent

 No trace has been found of the fugi- tive by the federal and civil agents searching for him. Rumors of all sorts reached the federal authorities today, one of them to the effect that Bergdoll had planned to leave the country. This was given some credence by Harry B.

Mir. Pierce requested the authorities at Washington to warn all coast guard revenue, light house and all government agents to watch for the yacht along the Atlantic coast.

 George Gale, harbor master at Atlantic City, said tonight there had been no such yacht moored there and D. Clarence Gib- boney, local counsel for Bergdoll. denied that Mrs. Bergdoll owned one.
