Youths Nabbed, But Finds

1t was still dark at 6 yesterday
morning.
So Edward Peters Of Murdock,
Neb., curled up on the bench he had
been occupying in the Union station
and prepared for a comfortable nap.
Two dapper youths sat opposite
him.
He didn't like the way they
watched him so he decided to keep
one eye open. This he did for 2
short time, but Morpheus soon held
the upper hand and Edward slept.
He awoke with start, with a
premonition of something gone
wrong.
His suitcase! 1t was gonel,
Leaps from Couch.
He rubbed his eyes, All, so were
the two dapper young men.
Peters 1eaped from his couch,
hunted up Patrolman Joe Valack and
enlisted his aid.
As the pair started up the stairs to
the street, they met the dapper
youths returning-empty handed.
IHCll tllCy, Sdlu SlCIS, 81 dill
three of them were taken to Central
police headquarters by Policeman
Valack who booked the youths for
investigation and Peters as complain
ing witness.
Released on Bond.
The youths gave the names Henry
c. Chamberlain, 21l8 South Twenty
eighth street, and Roy M. Nahon of
St. Joseph, Mo.
Peters was released on $40 bond
and started back to Union station to
finish his nap.
At Tenth and Howard streets he
again rubbed his eyes.
There stood man with his suit
case.
Quick as a flash, he raised his
hands to his lips, formed baby
megaphone and beloved forth:
police! Policew
That would scare anyone, so the
man in question, dropped the suit
case and ran.
Ah}yes, he ran too fast for Peters.
So the hero of the morning trot-
ted back to police headquarters
where he reported his experience.
But he's still held as complaining
witness against the dapper youths.

Bernstorff Was
Responsible for
Irish Expedition
Leader of Unsuccessful Jaunt
With German Arms for Ire
land Declares Germans
Directing Ship Stupid.
New York Times Chicago Tribune Gable.
Copyright, 1921.

Copyright. 1921.
Berlin, Jan. 3.-The foolhardy ef-
fort made by the Germans in 1916
to send arms to Ireland is described
for the first time in book just pub
lished here, THE Mysterious Ship
by Captain Karl Sprinkler, who led
the unsuccessful little expedition.
1t appears that the suggestion to
land arms and ammunition in Ire
land was first made by Count Won
Bernstorff, then German ambas-
sador to the United States.
"The leaders of the Irish in AM
erica" Captain Spindler said, went
to Count Won Bernstorff with the
urgent request that Germans should
support by military means the
planned insurrection in Ireland. A
proposal that troops be sent to Ire
Land had to be turned down, but the
German government declared itself
ready to consider the suggestion
made by Count Won Bernstorff OF
sending ship with arms and am
Imunition to Ireland.
Used Norwegian Flag.
"For the purpose the captured
Wilson Line vessel, Castro, was
fitted out and laden with large
quantity of arms and ammuaition.
1t was first called the Libau, but
soon after the start its name was
changed to the Aud. With forged
papers ethe vessel sailed under the
Norwegian flag with pit props for
Cardiff and general cargo for
Genoa"
Captain Spindler emphasizes the
fact that "our kaiser neither sug-
gested nor urged the expedition" :,
"The English would never dream, :.
he writes, "how carefully we had
prepared to receive them should
they come on board to inspect the
ship. What was more natural than
that the English prize crew should
fall on the whisky which stood in
vitingly in every corner-and genu-
inc expensive Scotch, too? The more
they made friends with it the better
for us"
Germans Were Stupid.
L .
At the rendezvous Sir Roger Case
ment failed to put in an appearance.
There was no message awaiting the
blockade runner to tell him what to
do with his cargo; so to bluff the
naval authorities at the little port OF
Fenti till he could find opportunity
to escape seaward. the raider had re-
course to the whisky. II
He congratulated himself on the
success of his. skill in loading with
spirits all those who came on board,
little knowing that ships to round
him up were being wirelessed for.
When, on making his departure for
the open sea, he was rounded up, he
became angry that prize crew was
not sent on board. He decided that
| the English were afraid to come near
him, were terrified by this bold sea
rover.
| As the English knew the ship
could be blown up at. moments
notice, the procedure of making the
capture and follow on to Queenstown
was wise one, and Spindler has to
admit that the stupid fellows in the
business. were the Germans, although
| the expedition was planned under the
personal supervision OF Admiral Won
| Scheer. \
