ENEMY SECRET AGENTS IN U. S. ADMIUERVICE Gaston Means Admits Collecting $92,000 at One Time From Germany v v - CHICAGO. July 19. Admissions that he had served as a secret agent of Germany before the United States entered the war and the allegation that some of New York's most prominent lawyers had done as he did, were made Wednesday by Gaston B. Means In testimony at the hearing to determine the legality of one of two wills purporting to dispose of the 13.000,000 estate left by the late James C. King of Chicago. , Means, who appeared as a witness for the heirs of Mrs. Maude A. King, for whose alleged slaying he was tried and acquitted in Concord, N. C, last summer, freely admitted receiving money for acting as a secret agent of the German government before the outbreak of the war with the United States. "Quietly he told of receiving $86,000 at one time and $92,000 at another for his services to Germany and of delivering $1,300,000 which he received on a check to Capt. Boy-Ed, one of Germany's chief spies in this country, who was subsequently expelled. Asked regarding the services for which he received $92,000, Means said: "I made that money the way lots of other Americans did, some of them the biggest lawyers in New York. I can easily tell you the place where I. collected It right in the Trinity Church yard at a designated tombstone." The witness also admitted that he and German spies in this country were

to tie up the building of electric boats, the "Mosquito fleet," building for the allies in this country. Means said he found that the boats had gun emplacements and that Capt. Boy-Ed called this to the attention of the neutrality board at Washington. "President Wilson then very properly asked him why he was doing detective work in the United States," declared Means. "And now for the first time the public knows why Capt. BoyEd was sent back to Germany. I turned all my information to the. government."

i to the wife. The pro

prietor himself waited on me and the conversation drifted around to diamonds. And say. Bill, what that fellow didn't know about diamonds ain't worth telling. I confided to him that

I always did have a hankering to be the owner of a good stone but never could save enough money to buy one. Then he said: :It was for just such men as you that I formed a Diamond Growing Club. To become a member of this club you simply buy as big a stone as you can afford. Wear it as long as you like and when you have saved up a few more dollars come in and exchange it for a larger one. In making the exchange, I will allow you the full price you paid me.' Although I was pretty near busted, yet I managed to scrape together ten dollars and with that bought my first diamond."
