LT Continued from Fifth Page the honest explorer he pretended to be, actu- ally gave him a huge contract to buy and ship munitions to Russia! This, of course, was duck soup for the cap- tain. He got a lot of good Russian gold to finance his anti-ally activities and, of course, none of his goods ever reached Russia. A little later he found an even more effec- tive way of sabotaging munitions shipments. A stevedores’ strike took place in New York, Vonr Rintelen got in touch with the leaders and financed the formation of a vast union. Being backed by Von Rintelen’s gold. this union was able to pay substantial strike bene- But the other side had money. too. Arma- ment fisms poured millions of dollars into the contest. High wages were paid to strike breskers. The strike, eventually, was broken. Meanwhile, the doughty captain got another fron in the fire. If war between the United States and Mexi- eco should start, the United States would need munitions at home and there would for the allies. Huerta, former Presi- of Mexico, who hated the United States bitterly, was in exile 'He turned up in New York and Von Rintelen got in touch with him. e [T Huerta, it developed, was trying to engineer another revolution in Mexico, but lacked money and munitions. Von Rintelen offered to help. It was agreed that Huerta’s revolutionary plot was to be aided; them, when he became ruler of Mexico, he would make war on the United States, Germany would supply him with money to buy armaments, and German submarines would land weapons in Mexico. Before the plot could be put through, how- ever, Huerta took ill and died. Meanwhile, of course, British counter-espi- onage agents and American secret service men had been on Von Rintelen’s trail; and when, in the Summer of 1915, he was recalled to Germany, these agents found out who he was and what he had been up to. He was arrested when his ship touched at an English port, hav- ing been detected by Admiral Sir William Reg- inlaid Hall, England’s famous spy catcher, who trapped Mata Hari, and after being detained RO RO LR R RN R RR AR R LML ) in England for some time he was sent back to the United States. In May, 1917, he was tried in America, convicted and sentenced to four years in prison. He served his term in Atlanta penitentiary. Cotton Aids Orange Men HE use of cotlon bags for packing oranges has effected a considerable saving in sev- eral ways. For one thing, the equivalent of five cases of oranges can be packed in the same length of time as two cases in wood. In addi- tion, in shipping, the weight is much less and at the same time, 4,000 pounds more of oranges may be loaded in a car than under the wooden crate system.
