In Confession of Spy
Who Stole Jap Plans
Tokio, Nov. IS. Another spy
story affecting American officials is
published in the Yomi-Uri Shifhbun,
which states that Sergeant Miior
Hasegawa of . the Formosa garrison
was arrested recently outside v the
American constitute .at Taihoku,
which he was visiting, it declares, in
connection with the disposal of
stolen plans of fortifications. The
newspaper says that Hasegawa con-
icsseo mat ne stole the plans in
April, last, and xrffercd them to
Henry Hitchcock, American consul
at Taihoku, who, Hasegawa alleged,
agreed to purchase them for $50,000.
Hasegawa took the Jjlans home,
awaiting the money, the newspaper
continues, consul Hitchcock wetft
to America in October. Eugene H.
Dooman, formerly consul at Kobe,
succeeding him. When Hasegawa
again visited the' consulate he was
arrested. . .
The fads, of the case, according
to the American charge, d affaires
here, are that in April lasj a Japan
ese visited Consul Hitchcock and of
fered him the plans. Hitchcock de
clined to discuss the matter. Later
the man visited Consul Dooman,
