Is Said to be in Leaugue With Ba~ Milan, Wade, aged 37, of Chicago, rested hefe yesterday on the charge | of being an accomplice of a Bavarian officer who is accused of espionage. A few days ago the police arrested {a Bavarian officers named Martin Schehammer on suspicion of espion- ‘age. He had made several visits to the provinces of Brescia and Ver- ona, in the war zone. It was learned that Schehammer had lived in several Italian - towns, Milan and Rome included, and had | many addresses. His close ‘acquaint- ance with Isabelle Wade of Chicago, a singer, was discovered and the po- | lice found the woman living in an apartment here under the name of Margherita Martello. Seach of her apartment revealed a large package of correspondence in cipher, military maps of important strategic value in the provinces of Alessandria, Udine, Verona and Bassano. These were con- tained in a large valise, in which also were fleld glasses and a revolver. From another package of German correspondence it would appear that Isabelle’ Wade had had dealings with the police of Berlin. | The woman at first maintained that she was Margherita Martello and had ‘tound the valise in the street, but after spending a short time in prison, she admitted her real identity and declared that Schehammer had placed hands, saying that he was shadowed by the police and feared he would be arrested at any moment, and that it was necessary to hide the documents, June | varian Officer Accused of Espionage j taly, | was ar- PAY LUSITANIA CLAIMS.
