GERMAN OFFICER?
Police Say Man Accused of ring Big Ship Was of Strong Pro-German Sympathies.
PARIS, April 1.—Additional evidenc# been found, the police assert, to -»v© the pro-German sympathies of Raymond Swoboda, charged with being responsible for the lire which threatened the destruction of the steamer LaTouraine.
Secret service operatives learned yesterday that Swoboda left five trunks in an office in the Avenue d'Opera, the uae of which he had obtained through an introduction by Broker Morrison. The trunks were seized and sent to Havre.
The villa which Swoboda occupied at Viroflay, near Versailles, also was searched ajid a number of papers seized, These documents Included, the police asesrt, letters of a highly compromising character together with photographs showing Swoboda in a German uniform with two other officers. -M. Raguil, Swoboda's associate, declared in an interview last night that he believed Swoboda was a Canadian, as he has excellent references from Quebec.
Believed To Be Spy.
Swoboda's Germanophile sentiments became so pronounced about the middle of July, said Mr. Raguil, "that I decided to break off my relations with him. .After July 15, Swoboda spoke of war being imminent between Prance and Germany. He said he had exceptional sources of information in Germany. He wrote me about this time that it was a shame to deal on the bourse since there never would be a monthly settlement."
The Figaro prints the following statement in reference to Swoboda's attempt to attach himself to that paper: "During the first days of the war Swoboda came to the Figaro and offered himself as a war correspondent in which position he declared his American citizenship would be advanvantageous. He said he could go everywhere and supply information nobody else could get. One of our editors, Franz Raichel, who saw him, gained so poor an impression of the man that for the moment he seriously considered denouncing him as a spy and refrained from doin* so only because he was not absolutely certain."
FRIENDS HELP SWOBODA.
Say They Know Accused Man Is American Citizen. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Agents of the bureau of investigation of the department of justice began an inquiry today into the issue of an American passport to Raymond Swoboda, under arrest in Paris suspected with starting the fire on LaTouraine, the French liner. The investigation is to determine whether the issue of the passport was entirely regular. The passport does not give Swoboda's occupation, merely saying he was to. be abroad "one year on business."
Several inquiries have reached the state department from Swoboda's friends in this country. Acting Secretary Lansing said no official report haft been yet received from Ambassador Sharp. Eugene Davis telegraphed to the department from New York declaring Swoboda was an American, to his personal knowledge.
