GERMAN PLOT TO
INVADE CANADA
LEARNED BY U. S.
Kaiser's Relative Planned to
Send Reservists to Canada
and Mexico.
NEW YORK. July 23. Federal au
thorities have uncovered a vast Ger
man plot, involving 300,000 German re
servists, to start an armed invasion
of Canada with 150,000 men to prevent
that country sending more troops to
Europe, and to send an army of 150,
000 reservists to Mexico to foment
war between Mexico and the United
StS-tcs ' "r v
The plot was revealed through the
arrest last Tuesday of Dr. Fredertch
August Richard von Strensch, a rela
tive of the kaiser, and the discovery
among his papers of letters from an
American woman which spoke frankly
nf thei nlanR
Charles F. De Wooay or tne depart
ment of justice investigation bureau,
who questioned the- American woman
yesterday, refused to reveal her name,
but gave out excerpts of several of her
letters. One written In November,
1915, read, in partr
"I am thinking over the situation in
New York and wondering why you and
thi 1 50.000 men do not go to Quebec
and prevent Canada from sending
men overseas."
Another letter, dated 1916, read:
"Every German reservist is ready to
dr hia Hntv and do it well. All are
I ready to fly to Canada and to get a
cnance at tne uanauiaus.
A woman known ' on the stage as
Alexandra Vlarda, but who claimed to
be the "Countess von Scheele," was
arrested about the time von Strensch
was taken Into custody. Mr. De
Woody declined to state whether the
American woman's letters referred to
her in any manner as implicated in
the plot.
A man now employed In an Ameri
can airplane plant was referred to by
the American woman as an accom-
plice, and his early arrest is expected.
Von Strensch was charged witn De
ing a dangerous enemy alien in a
presidential warrant received here by
the authorities today.

M. In n'AoriAna nf war
A Danish engineer has recently tak
rn out a patent for an apparatus to
which he has given this name. It
consists of a steel cylinder normally
within a larger cylinder, the whole
being sunk into the ground vertically.
By means of a mechanism operated
by wireless the inner cylinder rises
to a height of 18 inches from the
ground and simultaneously an auto
matic rifle mounted in the inner cyl
inder fires 400 shots in any given di
rection. These "automatic soldiers can be
controlled from a central position
some four or five miles behind the
line of defense, according to the in
ventor. They may be seen by the en
emy only when they rise from the
ground.
From trials already made it has
been shown, so it is reported, that a
few hundreds of these steel soldiers
can easily defend a position against
infantry attacks, however numerous
the opposing force may be. They
blaze away their 400 shots without
flinching and never retreat. In order
tf overcome the "automatics" they
jjnist be destroyed one by one.
