GERMAN PLOT TO INVADE CANADA LEARNED BY U. S.

Kaiser's Relative Planned to

Send Reservists to Canada and Mexico. NEW YORK. July 23. Federal au

thorities have uncovered a vast German plot, involving 300,000 German reservists, to start an armed invasion of Canada with 150,000 men to prevent that country sending more troops to Europe, and to send an army of 150,000 reservists to Mexico to foment war between Mexico and the United StS-tcs ' "r v The plot was revealed through the arrest last Tuesday of Dr. Fredertch August Richard von Strensch, a relative of the kaiser, and the discovery among his papers of letters from an American woman which spoke frankly nf thei nlanR

Charles F. De Wooay or tne department of justice investigation bureau, who questioned the- American woman yesterday, refused to reveal her name, but gave out excerpts of several of her letters. One written In November, 1915, read, in partr "I am thinking over the situation in New York and wondering why you and thi 1 50.000 men do not go to Quebec

and prevent Canada from sending men overseas." Another letter, dated 1916, read: "Every German reservist is ready to dr hia Hntv and do it well. All are

I ready to fly to Canada and to get a

cnance at tne uanauiaus. A woman known ' on the stage as Alexandra Vlarda, but who claimed to be the "Countess von Scheele," was arrested about the time von Strensch was taken Into custody. Mr. De Woody declined to state whether the American woman's letters referred to her in any manner as implicated in the plot. A man now employed In an American airplane plant was referred to by the American woman as an accom-

plice, and his early arrest is expected.

Von Strensch was charged witn Deing a dangerous enemy alien in a presidential warrant received here by the authorities today.

M. In n'AoriAna nf war

A Danish engineer has recently takrn out a patent for an apparatus to which he has given this name. It consists of a steel cylinder normally within a larger cylinder, the whole being sunk into the ground vertically. By means of a mechanism operated by wireless the inner cylinder rises to a height of 18 inches from the ground and simultaneously an automatic rifle mounted in the inner cylinder fires 400 shots in any given direction. These "automatic soldiers can be controlled from a central position some four or five miles behind the line of defense, according to the inventor. They may be seen by the enemy only when they rise from the ground. From trials already made it has been shown, so it is reported, that a few hundreds of these steel soldiers can easily defend a position against infantry attacks, however numerous the opposing force may be. They blaze away their 400 shots without flinching and never retreat. In order tf overcome the "automatics" they jjnist be destroyed one by one. Social Service Bureau to Look After Children A meeting of tho assistants of the Social Service Bureau was held Monday afternoon at the Commercial club, for the purpose of organizing persons who are to visit the homes of the children found to need medical attention.
