SEE THE TUBE WITH 1700 PUNCTURES ——AT— ALLING RUBBER STORE TDETECTIVES SEEK | ALIEN ALARMISTS Running Down Source of Wild Rumors of Naval Disaster The government has started a round-up of the persons who for sev- eral weeks past—in fact, almost from the day that Presilent Wilson signed the declaration of war against Ger- many—have been circulating rumors hrough the country that the navy had met with a great disaster, and that the navy department was keeping the facts from the people. Already about a dozen men suspected of knowing about the origin of the rumors have been located by federal agents and a demand made upon them to give the government all the information they possess. Rumors that American warships had been in battle with the German fleet and that several of the Ameri- .can vessels had been lost with their crews, that a mutiny had taken place on a battleship of the Atlantic fleet while that ship was on the way to a French port, and that the superdread- nought Pennsylvania, flagship of the fleet had been destroyed, have been circulated in New York, BaTfimore, Boston and other cities. Still another rumor which gained wide circulation | in New York a few weeks ago was _» "’grsday, Friday and Saturday----This Week that the superdreadnought Arkansas had been mysterfously blown up and the navy hospitals were full of wound- ed marines and bluejackets. One of the men who is now being invest; by the secret service Atll.ntlo fleet bl'.flelhibl. llld tm ln quelling it many bluejackets were ‘wounded and several killed. The gav- ernment was able to locate the man who wrote the letter, and he was taken before the proper authorities yesterday. Whether or not he dis- closed the source of his rumor the government agents declined to say last night.

Daniels Aroused to Action For weeks these reports have been coming to the attention of the federal authorities, and in each instance the report has been promptly branded as false by Secretary Daniels, but even his vigorous denials failed to stop the rumor-mongers, and the result was [ the issuance last Saturday of the offi- cial statement in which Secretary Daniels sald that “the country is be- ing poisoned by rumors of battle and disaster that are absolutely without the slightest foundation in truth” and that reports from officers in command of naval stations, inquiries from news- papers and individuals, letters and telegrams from all parts of the coun- try had led him “to the conclusion that there is an o ized conspiracy on foot to alarm and distress the peo- ple of the United States.” - That these rumors are part of the German propaganda work now being carried on ih this country by spi other encmy aliens is the conclusion of the federal authorities. The round-up in New York is only a part of the nation-wide dragnet that has been spread for these trouble-makers and every person who is caught and against whom there is evidence that he, or she, has aided in spreading these lies will be dealt with to the fullest extent of the law. Each per- son taken before the federal agents in this city has been subjected to a rigor- ous cross-examination and several of them, it is understood, have made fair- 1y complete statements. As to the na- ture of these statements nothing has ‘been made public. All have been sent to Washington for the perusal of the secretary of the navy. SEIZURE OF PAPER BY GOVT.

This plan has the virtue of. being analo- gous to those plans which have been tried and successfully operated in Great Britaln. It will also insure the maximum and greatest facllity in the transportation and distribution and will adapt itself readily to a return to normal competitive conditions up- on the conclusion of the war.” OOURSE IN WAR HISTORY.
