CONVICTED SPY
NOT ACCURATE
IN HIS REPORT
■1
MINNEAPOLIS. — (Mail corres
i pondence.)—Additional details of the
sentencing of Paul Scharfenburg, who
was found guilty of furnishing mili*
tary information to German and sen
tenced to five -years in Fort Leaven
! worth prison, shows that he is a little
! wild in some of his information.
This information was contained in
a letter to relatives in the old country
in which Private Scharfenberg as
serted that there were 10,000,000 Ger
mans in the United States ready to
rise and take arms against this gov
ernment in the evnt of war with Ger
many. The letter was intercepted by
secret service agents of the United
States government who had spotted
several actions of Private Scharfen
berg as being a trifle ‘‘shady anti not
respectful to the flag under which he
was serving.
Private Scharfenberg is a native of
Germany.
Colonel Erie D. Luce commanding
the regiment, and Captain P. L. Mc
(Clay, regimental adjutant, in confirm
ing the story of Scharfenberg s ac
tivities, declared that he had predicted
I in his letter that President Wilson
• “soon would be put out of the way”
and also had stated that “the hundred
thousand troops on the border would
j not stand up if put against an ofTici
1 ent force.0

PRIVATEERING MAY
BE REVIVED IN
ANTI-SUB WARFARE
(Bjr United State* C«bl«)
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Mar.
21.—Hint is given out, although not
yet through official circles, that war
between the United States and Ger
many may mean the revival of pri
vateering in this country.
It is pointed out that Germany has
always insisted that privateering
would, in the event of war be ;a
weapon of first importance and for
this reason it declined to sign the de
claration of Paris which was signed
by nearly all European nations agree
ing to abolish this method of warfare.

NEW FIRE ALARMS
WILL BE PUT ON
ALASKA S. S. BOATS
Seventeen or more boats of the
• •
Alaska Steamship company will be
immediately equipped with aero fire
alarms. The equipment has been or
dered. The Alameda and Mariposa
will be the first to be equipped.
The alram works on a thermostatic
principle. Should a conflagration
start in any part of the ship the rise
in temperature causes the fuse wires
of the system to burn out resulting in
the sounding of an alarm on an indi
cator in the pilot house w’hereby the
exact location of the fire may be
readily traced. It is not necessary
writh the newr system to w’ait for a fire
to gain headway and the officers to
smell the smoke to know' that a fire
is aboard, as has been the custom in
the past. The Great Northern and
Northern Pacific steamers are equip
ped with this invention.

“SHOOT TO KILL ”
AVIATORS OVER
FORTS, IS ORDER
' ■
SAN FRANCISCO.—(Special.)—*
Orders to “shoot to kill” any aviator
that flies over the fortifications of $his
port wore issued March 4 by Major
General J. Franklin Bell, commander
of the western division of the army.
Instructions to that effect were given
to all sentries.
Local avaitors were notified ten
days ago to keep away in their flights
from all coast military reservations.
An unknown avaitor made repeated
flights early today over Fort Miley
and Fort Winfield Scott. The military
authorities notified the police, who
traced the aeroplane to a hangar .in
Alameda, across the bay. The place
was locked when they got there and
<
they were unable, they reported, to
learn the name of the avaitor.
The “shoot-to-kill” order followed.
Later the ploice learned that the of
fending aviator was Jacob R. Struble,
a wealthy Oakland engineer and ama
teur avaitor, who declared that if he
had violated the prohibition order it
was unwittingly and because a mist
made it difficult for him to see what
was below. • •
