It probably will be laid before President Wilson and Secretary Lansing before night, The affidavits from Paris anq Lon- don, expected on the liner St. Paul, will be considered in connection with the German note, and the “informa- tion” regarding attacks on merchant Wessels since the Lusitania disaster is expected to be completed in time to go to Berlin within the next week. Germany Must Furnish Proof. “While the entire plans of the ad- ministration are not being disclosed, It is understood that nothing less than some positive evidence of Germany’s £o0d faith to fulfill the assurances she pas given the United States, such as, possibly, substantial punishment of the submarine commander who tor- pedoed the Sussex, can prevent the sit- vation between the two countries from coming to the p: which diplomats have struggled for the last year avoid.

Case Strengthened. \, Careful examination of the German pote led officials to conclude that the ‘tase of the United States had been materially strengthened. The arity between the circumstanc rounding the attack on a steamer in tne British channel admitted in the German note and those surrounding the Sussex case eaused officials to fecl #here is no longer any doubt vessel was the Sussex.

ROUND-UP OF CROOKS MADE IN BRIDGEPORT Man and Woman Bound Over to Su- perior Court for Picking Pock- ets On Trains, Bridgeport, April 12.—Joseph Skur- nick, of four East 11th street, New York, a former clothier, was released on $2,500 bonds from the city court this morning after being bound over to the superior court on a charge of picking pockets, Probable cause was found the case of Mades Burns, of New York City, on a similar charge and he w bound over to the superior court $1,500 bonds. Joseph Morris, another New York, was remanded to the county jail in default of $1,500 and the case con- tinued until tomorrow. He is also charged with being a pick pocket.

Detectives asserted today that one of the prisoners said he had been sent to the factory in Hoboken by Captain Franz Von Papen, milkary attache of the German em- bassy at Washington, who was re- called by the German government at the request of the United States. The Hoboken factory is a small structure in which a few men were emploved. One of the prisoners told the police it w used at first to make fertilizer for shipment to Ger- many through neutral countries and that the Germans extracted lubri- cating oil from the furtilizer after its arrival in Germany, Two Admit Making Bombs, Both Becker and Von Kleist said by the police to have confes 1o making the bombs. The parts playved by Captains Wolpert and Bode have not been told. Tt is hinted that the first clue to the conspiracy came to the police as a result of a dispute between the men higher up in the censpiraey and the chemist who supplied the explosives. Many of the bombs are said to have failed to cx- 1lode, and consequently the chemist had difficulty over his payment. Discovery of the plot was hrought about, according to the authorities of Hobken, through the discontent of a4 man who had quarreled with leaders over money payments. This man, whose identity the police refu to make public at this time, is ciared to have written to the harbor neutrality squad suggesting an inves- tigation of Von Kleist's activitie The Hoboken authorities said this nan told them that Captain Boy-Ed, who was the German naval attache at the German embassy in Washing- ten, and Captain Von Papen had, before their departure from the United States placed a large sum of money at the disposal of the bomb ke Von Kleist, they clared, r, known tc h neighbors s in the operation of the company.
