Washington Is honeycombed •with
nests of spies and so are the cities of
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Bal
timore, Norfolk, New Orleans, Galves
ton, San Francisco and other seaports,
says the Washington Star.
There has been a rather complete
system of espionage In Washington
since the European war began. Here
tofore Intelligence officers of the vari.
ous European governments have been
more occupied in ascertaining the
moves of each other than In ascertain
ing moves of the United States gov
ernment But it is believed now that
some of this expert attention has been
turned upon Washington activities, al
though, as an Intelligence officer of a
foreign nation put It:
"What's the use? Any possible op
ponent of the United 8tates knows all
about this country's affairs that is de
sired to be known anyhow!"
Little Secrecy in united state*.
This remark recalls the fact that
there has been very little secrecy about
United States military affalr» In years
gone by, owing to the system of pub
lic hearings and the system of making
public the Information In regard to
hearings on military affairs before con
gressional committees which has been
in vogue in the United States.
Several years ago, when Major Gen
eral W. W. Wotherspoon, U. 8. A., re
tired, was chief of the war college, a
Japanese prince visited the United
States and was shown through the war
college. Just before his arrival Gen
eral Wotherspoon was showing a friend
through the building and pointing out
some of the systems In use, which, he
said, he proposed showing the prince.
General Wotherspoon's friend ex
pressed surprise that such entirely
complete courtesies should be placed
at the disposal of the distinguished vis
itor. General Wotherspoon replied:
"Oh, well, the prince will know all
about this anyhow before he gets here.
The Japanese have a pretty good Intel
ligence system."
Queer Happening* In Washington.
Queer things, however, have been
happening In Washington the past few
days. Splendid looking limousines of a
character not used by ordinary mes
sengers have been seen standing In
numbers before the doors of European
embassies as early as 0 o'clock In the
morning, when the ordinary worker In
Washington has hardly turned over for
his last nap. Queer things also have
been happening In connection with the
use of the long distance telephones.
These have come under the notice of
observing persons, who have readily
understood that the intelligence officers
of various nations could give an ex
planation of them If they wanted to do
so. It Is proper to add, perhaps, that
such explanations might be forthcom
ing from the department of Investiga
tion of the department of Justice of the
United States too.
The British intelligence system la be
lieved to be the finest thing of Its
kind ever put into operation In the
world. It Is known to be In charge of
Captain Guy Gaunt, R. N., the young
est captain in the British navy, an Aus
tralian, who is as much at home In the
country houses of Long Island as he is
In Washington. Captain Gaunt is de
scribed by those who know him as the
ideal of the romantic type of modern
Intelligence officer, a man of Indom
itable energy, to whom could possibly
be applied the old fashioned detective
phrase, "He never sleeps."
Great Britain Is watching out for the
Intelligence system for the allies on
the eastern coast of the United States,
and Japan is watching out on the west
ern coast
There is now a new officer In charge
of the German intelligence system In
the United States. He makes his head
quarters in the office of a big German
steamship company, a fact well known
to the allied intelligence officers. The
German system, however, la said to
have met with some reverses recently
Cogs In the machinery have slipped,
and it is said that the German system
is not accomplishing as much as it did
at the beginning of the war.
Spy's Real Name Disclosed.
When the spy Von der Goltz was ar
rested in Great Britain while trying to
make his way back to Germany under
a false name and a false American
passport he was confronted in Great
Britain with his real name, which is
Wachtermann, a name, it was said,
that has not up to this time been
known even to the department of Jus
tice. He heard It pronounced for the
first time since he left Germany years
before. Von der Goltz, it will be re
called, was known as Brldgman Taylor.
"Listening In" on telephones, on wire
Jess, the hunting for tips and clews to
codes, is going on all over Washington
and the big seaports of the country.
Rubber Made From Fish,
Freshly caught sea fish are said to be
the principal ingredient of an artificial
rubber of Dutch invention.

with cold water and let stand over
night Cook till tender. Add half the
weight of the cooked orange and liquid
In honey and half the weight In sugar
and cook till liquid Is well reduced.
Honey may be used In whole or In part

Glace Crahapple.—Select a hard, red
variety of crabapple. Use only per
fect fruit For a peck of apples take
five pounds of granulated sugar. Wash
and wipe the fruit, leaving on the
stems if desired. Put the fruit and
sugar in stone jars or casseroles in
layers, adding cinnamon and cassia
buds to taste. Cover the jure wlti
buttered paper. Bake In slow over
two and one-half hours. These may
be stored as canned fruit, but will keep

Ralsln and Cranberry Jam.—One cup
ful of large seeded raisins, one quart
of cold water, one quart of cranberries
and two and one-half eupfuls of sugar
Cook the raisins in water until the wa
ter is reduced one-half. Add the cran
berries nnd sugar and let simmer til1
thick.
Brandied Peaches.—Make a sirup In
the same way as for preserving. Let
It come to a boll and skim it Lay
enough of peaches In the bottom of the
preserving kettle to cook them until
they are tender and transparent Lift
out the fruit carefully and place 11
without breaking it Into jars. Crack
some of the stones and extract the
kernels, which add to the sirup, and
cook for fifteen minutes more. Now
add half a cupful of brandy to each
pound of fruit and take at once from
the fire. Strain the hot simp and pour
it over the peaches in the jar*. Seal
«t once.
