Fiancee of Private Peters
Starts an Investigation.
SAID TO BE AUSTRIAN GOUNT
Kentuoky Woman Is Alleged to Have
Confessed That Her Lover Sought
Secret of High Explosive Shells
Used by Army and Navy.
Washington, Aug. 8. Upon receipt
of a telegraphic dispatch from Cuptain
James Watson, army recruiting otllcer
pt Indianapolis, Ind., the war depart
ment has notified the commnudaut of
the coast artillery post at Fort Totten.
In. Y to hold Private James Peters of
the Ono Hundred and Thirty-fifth
company, const artillery, at thnt post,
under surveillance until further orders.
Peters is suspected of being n spy for
Austria.
Captain Watson said he had come
into possession of important papers
which, backed up by affidavits, tended
to prove that Peters is serving a
period of three years' enlistment In the
United States army In disguise for the
purpose of obtaining Important mili
tary secrets.- This is the lnformaton.
apparently, that was reported as hav
ing been placed in the bands of Cap
tain Watson by Miss Clara Dyer, a
young Kentucky womnn, who is said
to have been engaged to marry Petei-R
nnd also to have aroused suspicion
through her manner in which she en
deavored to gain the assistance of
Captain Watson in purchasing the dis
charge of the soldier.
Miss Dyer is said to have confessed
that Peters had told her he was an
Austrian count nnd had come to the
United States for the purpose of learn
lng the secret of a powerful explosive
used by the nrmr. This, it Is though!
Is "dunnlte." which hns come to be
used largely in the big shells In both
tho army nnd navy. It is stated at the
war department that the story con
cerning Peters will be Investigated.
It is doubted that he has any con
nectlon with the Austrian govern
ment, although it Is not impossible
that ho may have elected to make
some Investigations on his own ac
count or for some other government
Even though this bo his object, the
army has little to fear concerning
either "dunnite" or the fortifications at
Fort Totten. Everything nt tho post is
open, nnd any one could obtain all the
military strategic information there
without the trouble of enlisting in the
army.
According to the report from Indian
apolls, Miss Dyer met Peters whtle on
a boat returning homo from Europe
last September. Tho records of th
war department, however, show thnt
Peters has been in the service several
years. He served his first three years
In the cavalry und re-enllsted about
eighteen months ago in the coast ar
tlllery. Once In that branch of thp
service, he could not choose his own
post or station.
The military explosives are manufac
tured by or under the Immediate dl
rectlon of the ordnarce bureau, ond
few officers of the const artillery know
Its secrets. Peters has had a good,
clean record.
The case of Private Peters is the first
to be laid beforo the war department
under tho new law providing punish
ment for spies or for persons who at
tempt to gain any military informa
tion improperly. The punishment for
euch an offense Is $1,000 flno or im
prisonment for one year, or both.
