Mi Providence Journal cald tnli morn lag "The arreatof QencralHuerta nt El Pato on Jun 27 closed the flrt chapter of a plot to etrbroll the United State with Jfxlto and to put a stop to tho exporta tion of munitions of war to th Allies, a plot directed and almost brought to a con clusion by the Oerman Ambassador. Count von Bernsforff and Captain Boy-Ed. "Th German Forelsn Office, working- In conjunction with the German Embassy at Washington, was not only familiar with the entire plot from the ("ay It was actually put Into operation at Barcelona, Spain, but originated It and planned all Its details. "It wan when Captain Boy-Ed, acting as tho mouthpiece of Count von BernBtorff. tried to hire some American citizens to so eure Huerta's safe conduct Into Mexico and to undertake the work of transport ing German reservists and arms acros the border that the exposure came. "The moment this offer was made, the Providence Journal was notified of It. and, acting under the advice ol tm news taper, the men to whom the Infamsus proposal camo went to Washington and laid the entire matter before President Wilson. 'A a result of this Information Huerta and many of his fellow plotters In New Tork were shadowed day and nlsht by secret service official. When Huerta left New York with the avowed Intention of Swing to the San Francisco exposition, the Department of Justice was warned that this alleged objective was a blind. Had Huerta proceeded (o California ho would not have been molested at that time The moment he turned south and headed for El Paso It was decided to arrest him on bis arrival In that city. HUERTA SURPRISED AT ARREST. "Confident of the protection and safe conduct that had been pledged to him per sonally by Captain Boy-Ed, Huerta was astounded at his arrest. "Ho did not know that the moment the Oerman Embassy ascertained that the knowledge of the plot was In possession of the authorities at Washington It had become panic-stricken and at once began to eliminate all possible clues by which Its connection with Huerta's affairs could be traced. The operation of covering up the tracks of his Government was placed In ,the hands pf Captain Boy-Ed. who spent two' weeka In New York doing his best to break down any possible evidence that the United States secret service men might find against him. The German Embassy,, using Huerta's ambitions .for Its own purposes, simply made him a cat's paw and attempted by vaguq promises of the support of many thousands of German reservists In this cojntry to bring about a condition In Mexico that would compel the United State: to lnturfcie. PURPOSES OF VPLOT." "The purpose of this plot was fivefold: "I. To divert the public mind In tho United States from the crime t.f the sink ing of the Lusttanli, "J. To divert the transportation of munitions of war from their British and continental destinations and to bring about a condition that would compel the Government.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Announce-ment by Secretary McAdoo that Presi dent Wilson will make another attempt to force through a ship purchase bill at the coming session of Congress amazed Democratic leaders here today. "They declare that to do so will pre cipitate a light which will Imperil the Ad ministration plan to obtain from Congress necessary legislation to bring up to date methods of national defense. If tho President will heed the advice of tha men on whom ho must depend to get through any legislative measure he will disavow the McAdoo declaration nnd will permit the passage of ship purchase legi Illation to wait the completion of the entire legislative program, If It Is to be pressed at all, Is the belief here. Democratic leaders declare that the Re publicans will make the tariff the real lasuo In next year's campaign. Because of this they bellevoithat the Administra tion should take steps to perfect the ex isting XJnderwood-Blmmons taw and wlpo out some of the provisions about which complaint has been mado. Chief of these Is the free-sugar provision. President Wilson Is to be urged, It was learned today, to permit the restoration of the duty on sugar for the benefit of the South, which has suffered so much from the slump In the cotton market caused by the European war. There will be no extra session of Con gress. Friends ot the Administration say that within the last two days the Presl dent has let it be known that ho will not call an extra session, unless a crisis Is precipitated In German-American rela tions. The attempt of the Democratic leaders to amend the Senate rules In order that closure may bo resorted to to cut off debate will be taken up at tho regular session, even though such ac tion makes an all-summer session of Con gress next year necessary.
