 Two German prisoners on trans port sailing today consigned to the Intelligence Staff Washington.
 BASH.
 DISPATCH TO N. Y. TIMES
 Washington, July 21.
 These were the only two pris- oners of war to be brought to this country from France since the war and even those who were in immediate charge of them pro- fessed not to know why they were being removed to this country. The names and ranks of these men were withheld.
 LUST line from a cablegram announc- ing the sailing of transport and giv- v ing list of those on board-but more Khan one newspaper carried the cablegram; 'also there were as many versions of the facts regarding these two prisoners as there were newspapers publishing the message. To chronicle one of the greatest feats of the war, I have decided to tell the story of these two prisoners At the time the Armistice was signed millions would not have induced me to tell this story, for then the German Secret Service had long arm. Men learned to their ruin that hide where they would it could find and punish terri bly, More than one mysterious death has been the work of that service. It was the boast of the Germans that whoever tricked them paid the death penalty. After the coup l tell about, and when the story had penetrated back to the Great Headquarters of the Germans their Secret Service took a solemn oath that every one connected with the work should swiftly die. However that is all changed now. The

 Of course this was just what Major An derson desired, but if he accepted their proposition soon made they might be- come suspicious, so he played it safe" and left. When he returned, he walked up to the group and said
 'I have decided to cast my lot in with yours! You know the Americans have of- fered reward for my capture, so I am will ing to do anything to get even."
 The Major was very fierce and firm about it and the leader called for wine with which to welcome the new member. With every eye in the room upon the Amer ican, the leader proposed toast:
 "To the health of the Kaiser and the success of the Germans Arms"
 Evidently they thought this was clever way to test Anderson's sincerity. It was absolutely the only test attempted. Of course toast-d drinking was a serious rite with them, and even though Anderson must drink, they must have hoped that he could not do it without betraying his real senti- ments. But all the feelings he showed were enthusiasm and thirst.
 The Germans put their feelings into queer pockets and are famous, of course, for un- derstanding no ideas but their own. After the toast, the chief administered the oath of allegiance to the German Fatherland and they opened vein in the Majors arm so that he could sign the oath with his own blood. He was then welcomed as a member of the system, and the special use they had for him unfolded.
 Recently" the leader said, "at one of the base ports, the Americans captured man whom they have tried and convicted of being a spy. This man they know as Frey tag is member of the German nobility and volunteered for this work since his health was such that he was unable to stand the strain of trench life. He was supposed to represent the Swiss Red Cross, but, through some slip, he has been caught. The Kaiser orders us to use every effort to effect his escape. We want you to return to France and help him to get away, or, if that is impossible, you are authorized to spend any amount of money to bribe his guards. We will render you every assist ance possible from this side of the boun- dary.

 c. E. Russell the district, to ask that he be released. Be- fore leaving for his interview with the Gen. eral, the Major told the prisoner that he was leaving some of his personal property in the prison, and if successful in forcing the au- thorities to release him he would return for it and the prisoner would then know that he had friend outside working for his escape.
 The next morning the Major was brought before the Commanding Officer and, with great show of injured dignity, he de- manded to know why he had been arrested and stated that if he were not at once re- leased he would appeal to the Spanish Am bassador. The General called the Chief into his office and asked on what charges this man was being held. "If you are hold ing him on suspicion" said he, "I shall at once release him.
 The Chief confessed he could not prove anything against this man and so the Gen. eral, with apologies, ordered his release, after giving the Chief reprimand for such careless work The poor old General played right into the plans, while the Chief and the Major longed to laugh and tell him all about it. But unless the General should happen to read this story, he will always feel that the intelligence staff committed a stupid blunder when they arrested that Spaniard.
 Returning to the prison with the Major, the Chief sent him into the building to get his property, and the Major took occasion to bid the prisoner good-by and once more caution him to be on the watch for the sig nal for escape.
 Now it was arranged for high powered motor car with plenty of gasoline and oil to be near the entrance to the prison when the prisoner should be out for his exercise.
 A few evenings after Major Anderson had been released, Captain Orcutt drove to the entrance of the prison just as his High ness left the guardhouse for his walk. The officer drove the car up to the curb and leaving the engine running, passed through the gate and sent teh man on guard away on an errand.
 With that the Major stepped up to the car and seated himself behind the wheel to await the next move. Prince Joachim strolled past the gate, the Major signaled and he made sudden rush through the gates and jumped in beside the Major. Throwing the clutch in, the car gave a

} War extraordinary offers to exchange several men for Freytag. Doubtless they would have offered regiment of "cannon-fodder" if they had hoped it would do any good. But it was the Five in Spain who were go- ing to effect something. For at last the Chief by threatening to take the matter imme- diately to General Pershing, won the day. If his men could get the Prince away un- der the conditions they must accept-why they could have him. The conditions had to be kept stupendously difficult. The Chief and the four officers already engaged in the scheme, together with the official just in- formed of it, must be the only souls know ing what was going on.
 The head of the prison, the guards-ev- cry one would be as eager to defeat Major Anderson and keep their prisoner as if the Major were indeed Spaniard in Germany's pay.
 Returning to Paris, the Chief arranged with his men for all five to go to where the prisoner was confined, and study the situation But when Major Anderson pre- sented his passport to be vised, an over zealous French intelligence officer came near upsetting all arrangements, for he re- fused to allow the Major to go. He said the place was in the zone of supply of the French Army and foreigners were not per mitted within it. Since Major Anderson posed as Spaniard there was no legitimate argument against this decision. The pass port must be vised, however, by one ruse or another.
 So, Captain Odell, personal friend of the Frt lch chief of the intelligence staff, was detailed to secure the proper stamps. If the American Chief had realized that the French would not pass the Major, he could have presented the passport himself; but when the Major had made the attempt, it was considered too dangerous to permit him to try it again.
 Telephoning to his French friend for an appointment, Captain Odell presented him. self at the bureau.
 "Chief," said he, q have a hobby for collecting all the stamps used by the var ious bureaus and armies of this war. haven't stamp of your office and I would greatly appreciate it if you would give me an imprint with your signature upon it."
 The French chief, laughing at the pecu- liarities of the Americans, sent for his of- ficial stamp and handed it over to our of- ficer. Giving as an excuse that it was too IL II
