Bishop's Widow Silent
A score or more secret service
operators and customs officials hunted
the city last night to find the elusive
Herman, headed by Garbarlno and
Brooks, the special agents of the De
partment of Justice and the Treasury
Department. If apprehended the cap
tain will be handed over to the immi
gration officials at Gloucester, as he Is
in this country now in contravention
of the alien laws.
These, developments were hardly
more dramatic than the admission by
one of the secret service agents that
the home of Mrs. Alex. Mackay-Smith,
widow of Bishop Mackay-Smith, for
mer head of the Protestant Episcopal
Diocese of Philadelphia, had been un
der surveillance for at least a week,
and that Mrs. Mackay-Smith and her
daughter. Miss Virginia, had been
questioned by special agents as to any
visit that Captain Boy-Ed mlglit have
made to their home. The captain was
banished from this country by Presi
dent Wilson in December, 1916, after
the State Department had received
proofs that the German diplomat was
engaged in conspiracy to violate the
neutrality of this country.
Seek Elusive Plotter
Mrs. Mackay-Smith lives at 125;
South Twenty-second street. About
J!:30 o'clock a woman visitor left the
house, bowed out by a courtly butler. [
Later the butler was asked if Mrs.
Mackay-Smith could be seen, and re- j
plied that she was out. but would re- j
turn for dinner. He also stated that |
a woman who had gone away in a
closed carriage, was not his employer,!
but a visitor.
In the evening a visit to the house |
brought word from the butler that i
"Mrs. Mackay-Smith had gone out and i
would not return until very late."

but said they had asked Mrs. Mack.iy-
I Smith and her daughter if Boy-Ed
j had visited their home. A note wna
! sent in to both of the women, tho de
tectives admitted, and returned with
;the reply that "Mrs. Mackay-Smlth
; and her daughter had nothing to asy."
During the last week, too, an espion
'age has been kept on the house whore
the widow of the former Episcopal
i prelate dwells with her two daughters.
; Miss Virginia Mackay-Smlth was at
lone time reported to be the fiance of
i Captain Boy-Ed, but tho engagement
was never officially confirmed by the
family. German custom prohibits the
marriage of a naval or military officer
without the sanction of the Kaiser.
Captain Boy-Ed is said to have unkca
for the imperial consent and the
Emperor Is reported to have flashed
back, his agreement by wireless to
Sayville. The censor, however, view
ed the message from the German Em
peror with suspicion and never for
warded it to the embassy. Thus the
attache never learned that his im
perial ruler had sanctioned the mar
riage until he was exiled and returned
to the Fatherland.
look For Revelation
For the first time yesterday the
secret agents, speaking unofficially,
stripped the mystery from the tech
nical charge, of smuggling lodged
against the five alleged to be impli
cated. They frankly admitted that The
arrests, to their niind. nipped a plan
to blow up both the interned vessels
the moment that war was declared be
tween the Fnlted States and Germanj
"And within a couple of days," said
one of them confidentially, "there
ought to be a story that will blow thej
roof off the town." They refused to I
specify further, but it is understood
that there are certain links mlssins,
which when forged .will result in thei
arrest of the officers of the interned!
ships, and numerous German-Amer- !
icans of the city, who are believed to
be actively engaged in an unneutral
propaganda.
A quarter of a century ago Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root was introduced In
this vicinity; and I must say that I
have never handled a more satisfac
tory and pleasing medicine. The peo
ple who buy it are always ready to
praise it for what it accomplishes
and when a preparation proves itself
I reliable it always enjoys a splendid
j reputation.
Very truly yours,
