SCIILESVICf PLEBISCITE
A STUPENDOUS BRIBERY
COPENHAGEN, March 17.— No
election in history has over offe.vl
so stupendous a Ivibo to voters as do
the Schleswig plebiscites, say Copen
hagen eb. errors. Those plebiscites ove
to ded !e whether a jrreat pact of
Schleswicf is to remain German terri

Denmark's interest in the outcome
of the election in the three zones rose
to fever heat on the approach of the
dnte for the plebiscite in the fi-pi
zone, the strip nearest Denmark. This
was won hy the Danes by a vote or
three to one.
lrtense interest centers in the re
sult of the plebiscites soon to be held
in *he second zone of which Flensburtc
is the ch»rtf c’tv and there the firrht is
fio'-ccst. Despite tke fact that the < ity
is prenonderantly German, only about
n«p tenth of the people are Danish,

German mark, its value non is infin

GERMAN SCHEME FOR
RAID ON GIBRALTAR
HAS BEEN EXPOSED
LONDON, March 17— A German
scheme for an air raid on Gibraltar
in conjunction with the Italian and
Austrian fleets in 1914 has just been
disclosed, says the Evening Standard.
In the summer of 1914 an avia
tion was promoted at Malaga, Spam,
but was suddenly abandoned on the
eve of hostilities. German competit
ors had entered, ostensibily for show
purposes, the Standard states, but
really in order to be close at hand
for an air attack on Gibraltar. They
hoped to secure the cooperation of
the Italian and Austrian fleets in
this venture.
The British authorities had pre
viously learned of this plan and as nil
hope* of the participation of the
