Authorities Claim Kaltschmidt Started Expedition From U. S. Against Canada. News-Times Special Service: DETROIT, Mich., May S. With the reconvening Monday of the federal grand jury here, after a recess of 10 days, renewed Interest was manifested in the government's case against Albert Karl Kaltschmidt. German citizen, charged with setting on foot a military expedition against Canada from United States territory. Kaltschmidt' indictment is expected within two days. Since the declaration of war against Germany, Kaltschmidt has been held in Jail here, being unable to furnish the required bond. His status was materially altered by reason of war declaration. He may now be regarded as an enemy alien and technically has no standing under the laws of the United States He may be interned at will by order of the federal authorities. Despite this, however, ollicials generally believe that Kaltschmidt will be given a fair trial in event of his indictment. Some pressure has been brought to bear upon United States officials in favor of handing the prisoner over to Canadian authorities to face trial on charges of attempting to dynamite the Windsor armories and the Peabody plant at Walkerville. It has been suggested that th United States might order Kaltschmidt's deportation. escort him to the nearest border point, which in this case would be the center of the Detroit river, and order him to leave. Under such plan, of course, he would fall into the hands of Canadian officials and Ve forced to stand trial on serious charges pending- against him in the dominion. It is not thought that such action will be taken by federal authorities here without direct instructions from Crepe de Chine, the ever popular silk, 50ft and clingy, rich and lustrous.
