LONDON', Nov. t Major General Des
mond O'Csllsghan of ths Royal artillery
has been Investigating a number of
alarmist reports which have had wide ov
ulation In England,1 to the effect that
German ordnance agents have for yrars
past been preparing, for the Oermanl In
vasion of Ijnirland by secretly placing In
factory foundations, tennis courts and
residence, deep - concrete foundations,
suitable for use with the heaviest German
lege artillery. -These concrete founda
tions, according to rurnor, were always
discovered in positions "commanding'
Dondon, or Edinburgh, or Dublin. "All
boRh," says General O'Csllsghan, wbo Is
Inclined to be a trifle annoyed at having
to wast his time on "such nonsense."
His report to the public in part:
I have had the pleasure for the last
few weeks of assisting Bootlend -Yard In
the Inspection of concrete platforms, and
appraising their danger from a military
point of view. Pino the discovery of aa
alleged gun platform at Wtllesdeh, reports
of similar preparations for the bombard
ment of London have been received from
all quarters. To sum up. my Invextlga-
(tons, there Is no reason to suppose that
the floors r roof of any factories, or
tennis courts, constitute in any way a
danger to tha public
Lawn tennla grounds In all direction

solidity vouched for by nervous communi
ties, but all turn out on examination to

which are fired off their wheels, would
vary much better serve his purposes."
One of the factories reported by the
polio as suspiciously well constructed is
owned by n American firm. General
O'Callaghan mentions It as an eample.
It waa reported by nervous neighbors as
"an alien company with a German man

men; has concrete floor six feet thick;
