, pearance, however.
Federal Agents in Hiding.
Thit morning , Grave called at the
embassy and requested an appoint-
5 ment with PrWs Haufeldt at his
horse. A few hours later he arrived
there and convened with the coun
sellor for half an hour. One federal
agent waa hiding behind a door in the
'room. Another waa in the atreet out
aide. A police detective waa nearby.
It if aid that Prince Hatifeldt
showed Graves the $3,000 and that
the latter said he would go to his
hotel and get some of the documents
he did not have with him. Leaving
the house, he walked into the arms
of a federal agent and was taken to
the Department of Justice, where for
, hours he waa examined by A. Bruce
Bielaski, in charge of the bureau of
investigation, and his assistants. At
the end of the examination Mr.
Bielaski swore out a warrant. All the
papers in Graves' possession , were
taken from him. '
In Endearing Term.
The letter which Graves la alleged
to have aaid would prove ''embarrass
ing" to Countess von Bernstorff wai
couched,, "federal investigatora as
serted, in "endearing terms" and
signed with initials only. It wai as
serted by the officiali that the com
munication wai from a woman cousin
of Count von Bernstorff, 'who has

countess' business affairs in . Ger

Gravea first appearance In public
after his arrest waa at the office of
United Statea Commissioner Taylor
where, surrounded by federal agents
: and police detectives he waa brought
for arraignment He waa faultlessly
attired, swung a light walking stick
and viewed the proceedings with a
faint amile until the question of ball
waa brought up. He requested that
should he be unable to secure ' a
bondsmen, that he be permitted to
apend the night in a hotel under
guard of detectivea whose expenses
he offered to pay. i

should like," he said, "to escspe
spending the night m l cell."
It was ordered, however that he be
locked up, unless bail should be fur
nished. A . professional bondsman
. furnished the required sum.
In reply to question Gravea made
the following atatement to newspaper
mens , ,
"I have nothing Important to say.
I may never make a complete state
ment. I ant. an American in every
sense of the word. I have American
ideas. I have declared my intention
of becoming a eitiien of this country
and have taken out my first papers.
"I am now a writer, a lecturer and
lately have been writing scenarios
about my experiences is an interna
tional apy.
"I have been in thi country two
year and nine months. Yes, it is
true that I waa once connected with
the British foreign office, but I am
no more.
Dots Not Dial With Woman,
"I came to Washington for the sole
purpose of disposing of the pipers.
1 had no intention of blackmailing the
Countess von Bernstorff, I object to
the charge of blackmail; I do not like
the word. 1 made no attempt to com
municate with the countess. I do not
deal with women. I dealt with Prince
Hatifeldt. n
"I will not, at this time, discuss the
contents of the papers 1 had. I will
aay, however, that I was just em
ploying the tame methods which the
German embassy has used in thit
country for the past two years and
four months." - .. t, - r .
Clifford Grant, chief of detectives,
in a atatement, tonight said: ' " ,
"There waa nothing really official,
so far aa I know, about the letters
thit man had.' He had three letters
from the tame peraon. Each wound
up with the wordt 'my dear.' They
were written in the form of a diary,
apparently with a view of keeping a

tents to the United States. Of course,
there were some things in them which
the British censor might not have
passea.
"It seems that the lettera were en
trusted to some one aboard the Oscar
II, who, after receiving them, aaw
an opportunity to use them. Gravea
admitted that he wanted to make
money out of the lettera. He aaid
he paid $2,400 for them and wanted
to make a SoUO profit."
Officials of the Denartment of lus
tice tonight communicated with agents
in New York. Graves said he lived
there at 65 West Sixty-ninth atreet
An effort will be made to aecure cer

It was said at the embassy that
Gravel claimed he had in hit posses
sion a letter to the managing editor of
a New York newspaper from its
correspondent in Berlin. The em
bassy does not know what became
of this letter. The naoera taken (mm
Graves today remain in the hands of
Department of Justice officialt and
wm ue used as evidence. "
"We Have No Secret!."
A high official of the embassy aaid
tonight: , , .
"We had thia man arretted Wamu-
we wanted to let it be known that no
peraon attached directly or indirectly
to thia embassy can be made a victim
of blackmailing schemes. We have no
- secrets.
"It it quite true that tome of the
correspondence was in cipher. We do
not know yet what it a about. We
are most anxious to have it deter,
mined who brought the letters to this
country and how they happened to
fail into the handa of Graves. We
presume the authorities will find an
swers to these questions." .
-Officials said tonight that the
Coiutcs von Bernstorff probably
"Spy" Has Had Busy
Time in America
Karl Armgaard Graves, under ar
rest in New York, accused of at
tempting to blackmail Countess'
von Bernstorff, wife of the Ger
man ambassador to the United
Statea, hat had a aensational career
since coming to the United States,
about a year before the European
war broke out. He launched him
self on public notice by the pub
lication of what he alleged were se
crets of the German war office,
which he claimed to have gained
while a trusted member of the ae
cret service of the empire. It la
known he waa under arrest aa a
apy in Scotland and had been sen
tenced to prison as tuch. He wai
released and came to America, and
although inquiries have aeveral
timea been made in the House of
Commons aa to why he waa aet at
liberty, no explanation ia given.
Gravea saya it ia because he en
tered the British secret service,
from which he withdrew because
he waa not rewarded as promised.
Many of the statements he makea
in the book he published prior to
the opening of the war have been
given color by eventa that have
since transpired.
The arrest of Grave ia another
of a teriea of episodes that have
transpired because of the activities
. of aecret agents of foreign coun
tries Hi the United States. Noth
ing ia alleged at present to indi
cate that Graves has now any con
nection with the aervice of any for
eign power. He insists he was
operating entirety for himself.
would not be aaked to appear per
sonally againat Graves. v .
While attempting to secure his re
lease Gravea told the bondsman that
he knew Robert W. Wooley, publicity
manager of the democratic national
committee. The bondsman aaid he
communicated with Wooley, who de
clared he had met Gravea only twice
and knew nothing for or againat him.
, What Warrant Charges.
The warrant against Graves sworn
out by Mr. Bielaski gives the prisoner
the alias of "Meinke and charges that
he "did unlawfully verbally threaten
to expoae and publish certain lettera
addreaaed to Countess von Bernstorff
alleged- to contain matters showing
her Infirmities and failings with intent
to extort from said Countess Bern
storff the sum of $.1,000," and that in
violation of the code "he did unlaw
fully bring into the District of Colum
bia certain lettera addressed to Count
ess von Bernstorff, obtained by him
by theft committed in Hoboken, N. J.,
which act committed in the District
of Columbia would conatitute a viola
tion ot the code and work "againat
the peace and dignity of the United
Statea of America."
Gravea in his widely published so
called exposure of international spy
ing described many sensational epi
sodes, including purported interviews
with the emperor of Germany, how he
waa decorated for his services, the
way in which he aecured and aent to
the government information of ex
treme importance and what he claimed
to be the whole ot the German, apy
ayttem.
Admitted Being in Prison.
He freelv admitted that he had been
in priton in England and iir American
slang, tinged with a German accent,
told of bis flight to this Country.
Graves is about 45 years old. He
left for New York late -tonight after
issuing a statement denying that the
Countess von Bernstorff's name had
been mentioned in his talks with
Prince Hatifeldt . He declared the
$3,000 he aaked for was solely to cover

"The benefit to me in handinsr these

certain quarters in Germany to get

of money owed me there. ,
At no time in. my interviews and

' Sentenced as Spy.
New York, Nov. II. Dr. Arm
gsard Karl Gravea, aa he waa then
known, first came to public notice in
thia country when he waa convicted
in July, 1912, by the Scottish high
court ot judiciary at Edinburgh, Scot
land, of spying and sentenced to serve
months in prisons. It waa alleged
that notes concerning the guns under
construction for the British govern
ment and otner incriminating docu
menta were found in, his possession.
viravea auDearta in New vnrir in
June, 1913, and waa quoted as making
a long atatement to tne etiect that he
waa released from the Scotch orison
upon condition that he - enter the
British secret service, but that after
he had performed the services re
quired of him, the British government
refused to pay him t reward that had
oeen promised. ,
1 Follows Envoy.
According to this statement Graves
said that while in the employ of the
British secret service he followed
from Bremen to tilt United Status, in
19U a confidential envoy of Germany
who came to New York to meet an
envoy irom tne Japanese govern,
ment Graves also waa quoted as
saying that he ' obtained ; from the
German representative a copy of a
secret agreement entered into by
Germany with Japan defining the at
titude which Germany would assume
in event of war between the lAited
Statea and Japan.
Lair Gravea waa quoted aa mak
ing numeroua predictions concerning
the future actiona of Bulgaria and
Turkey and in one caae describing
a plan for a German invasion of
England. - ? -i
The question as to why Gravea was
released from the Edinburgh prison
was raised several timea in the Britiah
House of Commons and finally iu
November, 1914, a representative of
the British foreign office repudiated
the intimation that the foreign office
had entrusted to Graves a mission to

Whatever happens, republicans can
not control legislation hi the next
congress, because the new senate will
be democratic by a safe working ma
jority of 'twelve. In this situation
little partisan legislation can be looked
for durinsr the first Dart of the new
Wilson administration.' Because of
this, sdministration leaders will exert
every poasible effort to complete the
democratic legislative program before
March 4. next, when the sixty-iourtn
eonsrress will end. .
Important legislation which is to he
pushed as soon aa congress convenes

to limit political campaign expendi

revision of the laws affecting rail

English Editor Has
Fear -War. Will Last
Into the Year 1918
'London, Nov, 12. J. L.- Garvin,
writing in the Observer, predicts that
unless the Entente allies come to
more vigorous decisions the war will
be prolonged far into 1918, aa "the re
sult of the new outburst of German
energy on all sides and the unity of
direction under oa Hindenburg."
The allies in the east have perpe
trated almost every blunder left to
them to commit," writes Editor Gar
vin, "after a previous record of mis
management that aeemed well-nigh
exasperating. The prospect is not dis
astrous, but ia disagreeable, as the
fault ia repairable only at the coat of
many caaualties snd many thousanda
of milliona in money, which might
have been saved.
"The dorious chapter of the allied
offenaive on the Somme is closed. The
new chapter ia beginning, as the Ger
mans have fully recovered their mor
ale. There will be no breaking
through by the allies on the west this
year, nor will there be any extensive
withdrawal ot the Uerman lines Be
tween Arras and Noyon.

CHAIRMAN BEACH
TALKSJF BATTLE
Regrets Lack of Strong Repub
lican Paper in Capital City,
to Take Its Share.
LOOK FORWARD TWO TEARS
(From a Staff Corrapndftnt.
Lincoln, Nov. , 12. (Special.)
Chairman E. D. Beach of the repub
lican atate committee was busy at
state headouartera at the Lindell hotel
this morning taking care of corre
spondence which still continues to
come in notwithstanding the cam
oaien ia nearly a week over.
When pressed for a statement Mr.
Beach aaid that he had refrained
from saying anything for publication
until he had become satisfied that
there was no hope of landing anything
on the state ticket but now that the
matter was settled he would like to
say a few words.
"One thing that in my estimation
contributed most to the defeat of the
republican state ticket in Nebraska"
sard Mr, Beach, "was the lack of a
good, strong, aggressive republican
paper at the state capital which fighta
for the republican candidates, not
only during? the campaign, but -365
days in the year for republican prin
ciple!, the opposition had a strong,
virile newspaper here which put up a
strong fitrtit for every candidate on
their ticket from Wilson down to the
candidatea for the county officea, and
it waa almost impossible to meet their
argumenta because we had no local
paper which would put up the fight,
Praise for The Bee. '
"The Bee at Omaha was, a strong
factor in the fight for the national
ticket and also for the state ticket, but
it could not do it all. aaid Mr. Beach,
"The Bee was never stronger with
republicans than it is today and had we
the same kind of help here in this part
of the atate, we could have won. With
the prevailing aentiment existing I do
not think we could have carried the
state for Wilson, for somehow he had
a following that was very strong and
. i - J : .i. . i. - , :
cuupicu wun inc prevailing opiniun
among many that he had "kept us out
of war, it was a difficult thing to
overcome, but the state ticket could
have ivon in most instances, and one
thin. is sure, some democrats would
not .ave got across with the small
majorities they did, had we had the
support here that was due us.
Thanks His Aides. -
"The committee put up- the best
fight it wss capable of doing. I had
a strong, capable bunch of assistants,
and right here I want to thank them
for their loyalty and willingness to
put in long hours in order to keep
the work going. , We did our best snd
that waa all any man could do.
"We are defeated, but we are not
discouraged. 1 believe, that it may be
looked upon to some extent aa a aort
of blessing in disguise, speaking from
uuiuicai aianupoinr, ror l oeucve
that the country will be so sick of
wnat it did last luesday tour years
hence that it will give such a popular
majority to the republican candidate
tor president that will make the ores
ent majority for Wilson look mighty
small. 1
"I think Mr. Sutton'a record cost
him many votes. In many instances
that record could have been met in a
way that would not have made it ap
pear ao badly. When the chargea
first came out, I thought it best to
ignore them, but later when they be
came ao persistent I felt that they
snouio oe met, out it was not done.
." Prepare for Future, f
"However, it is no use to cry over
the matter now. The only thing to
do is to take advantage of our ex
perience and begin now to prepare for
tne future, the democrata campaign
the year round. With the state of
ficea filled with their political faith,
they are in a position to take advan
tage of every occasion and it stands

"I am not discouraged. On the
other hand I feel that with proper,
support we can win two yean hence
and then cop a victory when the next
presidential year arrives. The result
shows that democrata voted the demo
