That custom was In the form of

the time Zachary Taylor was chosen
as President in 184 8. Since that time

though at the same time he denied
prior knowledge and those In close
touch with the embassy were given
to_ understand that he did not ap
prove the course and worked to se
cure modifications.
It not been assumed that the
ambassador actually attempted to
bribe or personally influence any
member of Congress and doubt that
such was his purpose is supported to
some extent, by the comparatively
small amount of money asked. Fifty
thousand dollars, It was pointed out,
would go but a short way towards'
buying the intluence of any congress
man. Judiciously expended, how
ever, it might do much in compen
sating paid agents, such as are now
known to have belonged to the ela
borate machine Bernstorff had so
carefully built up for the production
of propaganda and for purposes of
espionage.
Have Many Names
Information in the possession of
the government but not yet revealed,
is said to show conclusively a moro
direct connection of the German ma
chine in America with the Irish ques
tion than that indicated in Count Von
Bernstorff's message. The records
at the Department of Justice are said
to contain the names of men impli
cated in that phase of Germanic in
trigue well known in America.
To'day's announcement by the
State Department is the first official
utterance of the government with
reference to the German ambassa
dor's active personal participation in
the maze of plots and intrigues cop
ducted for Germany's benefit in this
country since the beginning of the
European war.
The evidence of Count Von Bern
storff's personal activities in connec
tion with German propaganda here
bears the date of President Wilson's
address to Congress, January 22, re
citing his appeal to the warring na
tions to enter into peace negotiations.
At the same time the President was
addressing Congress, apparently,
Count Von Bernstorff was appealing
to his government for funds which to
Influence Congressional action.
Not First Time
It was not the first time, apparent
ly, that Count Von Bernstorff had
sought to influence congressional
action, this being eloquently pro-

in total years these veterans rep

sand. All those years represent the
result of good habits and moderate
use of tobacco. These men have en-
Joyed good health the larger part of
their lives and present indications
point that they will witness many
more voting days.
Benjamin A. Price at the age of
92, heads the veterans. He cast his
lirst Presidential vote for Zachary
Taylor in 1848, at Columbia. Since
that time ho has voted wrong in

The name of the organization
through which the German govern
ment had sought to influence Con
gress, the manner in which tho
money used for this purpose was ex
pended, the previous instances and
the individuals carrying on the pro
paganda, although not disclosed, pre
sumably are known to the State De
partment and to the Department of
Justice, whose bureau of investiga
tion for more than three years has
been conducting a rigid surveillance
of German activities tn this coun
try.
| Reports on Intrigues
Records of the Department of
Justice are overflowing with re.
ports from hundreds of agents con
cerning German intrigues here, many
of which led to the German em
bassy and some of which resulted
in the recall, at President Wilson's
request of Captains Boy-Ed and Von
Papen, the German naval and mili
tary aids.
Up to this time Boy-Ed and Von
Papen had appeared as the master
spirits of German propaganda here.
Intimations that German plots and
intrigues were directed not by them
but by Count Von Bernstorff with
the full approval of Berlin hereto
fore had been met by officials with,
siie'nce. For months past, however,'
there have been many indications
that the American government had
established Ambassador Bernstorff's
connection with much of the Ger
man secret work conducted here and
that there was ample basis for a re
quest for his recall several months
before the diplomatic break with
Germany.
Bernstorff Careful
Up to the time of Boy-Ed's and
Von Papen's recall, Von Bernstorff
apparently, for diplomatic reasons,
had sought to remain clear person
ally of connection with the great
volume of pro-German activities con
ducted here by his attaches.
From disclosures concerning Boy-
Ed's and Von Papen's manifold ac
tivities here officials apparently ob
tained the impression that Von
Bernstorff in most Instances had
left the conduct of German propa
ganda in the hands of his subordi
nates, with only 'casual supervision
of their activities, If any.
Intimations have been more or
less frequent, however, at trials and
other proceedings instituted against
pro-German agents in this country
that Von Bernstorff had at least a
general knowledge of the work which
they were conducting. The govern
ment's purpose in not following these
leads with public disclosure was to
permit of closer examination into
the ambassador's actual participa
tion In them.
Raided Offices
In that connection officials re
called to-day Count Von Bernstorff's
action In connection with the seizure
of April, 1916, of important papers
and documents at the office of
Wolfe Von Igel in New York. Von
Igel's office, ostensibly an advertis
ing agency, was raided by Depart
ment of Justice agents who after a
struggle subdued Von Igel and seised
the papers In his possession. Count
Von Bernstorff at once protested and
demanded their return. Copies were
made of Yhe documents and Von
Bernstorff was told that If he would
personally declare them to be the
property of the embassy the origi
nals would be restored.
The affair remains in that state
to the present dfcy. The contents
of these documents have not yet
been disclosed officially although It
was not denied at the time of the
seizure that the papers contained
revelations of prime importance.
