Two International
Spies
' By ETHEL HOLMES
Before' the pan-Europenn war we
Americans supposed that oor affairs
ilid not Interest other powers. Since
then we have awakened to the fact
that every government has a spy sys
tem within the territory of every other
government England, France, Italy
and. other powers keep secret service
workers in other countries. Of all the
Germans have tlie most perfect and
extended organization. And yet some
of the principal fields of tho working
of the German propaganda in America
have originated with tho British secret
service men. While these systems may
have been strengthened and enlarged
since the opening of the war. there is
reason to believe that they have ulways
existed.
Austria and Russia have always been
watching each other on account of the |
persistent encroachment of the two on
the Balkans. Some years ago two Rus
sian girls, sisters, went to Vienna as
spies for the czar upon the Intentions
of the emperor of Austria regarding
schemes to carve Austrian provinces
out of Balkan territory. One of these
girls, Maria, obtained a position as
copyist in the Austrian foreign office.
The other, Vera, kept house for the
two in rooms In an apartment building.
Since they were In the pay of the Rus
sian government they did not want for
inything, . .
Maria was under the orders of Cas
par Grentholl, a man who conducted
one of the bureaus of the deportment
in which she worked. He was a hand
some and otherwise attractive man.
anil when he made love to her she re
el procated. When they were not en
gaged In (he oflice he took her out tc
the gardens and other places of amuse
ment and l>y his kindness gradually
won her her.rt.
It was not long before Grenthall pro
posed marriage (o Maria. Though she
loved him, she hesitated to accept him.
Irdeed, his being a spy complicated
the affair, making her very unhappy.
Then suddenly Maria received a
shock. One d;iy when she was at work
a girl occupying a desk beside her
slipped a bit of [taper among those be
fore her. Maria unfolded It and read
that she was.suspected of purloining a
certain document that had passed
through her hands. Grenthall had won
h«.r in order to find out if she were
stealing such documents. Her room
would lie searched that evening.
Maria was cot only disturbed at dis
covering that CreuHi'ill had deceived
her. but in terror at iln^xiuspleion that
existed against Iter. Either her life or
a long Itnprlsonmeut would pay the
penalty. As soon as oCice hours were
over she went to her room and told her
sister what had occurred. She had
stolen the paper In question, and It
was concealed In their apartment
Taking it from its hiding place, she
was thinkiug what to do with It when
there was a sound of persons coming
nji the stairs without She had only
time to thrust the paper iuto her
bosom when the door was thrown open
and in walked G rent hall, accompanied
by several men. lie made 110 apology
for his entrance or for having played
the spy upon Maria. lie and his men
I'Ci-aii a search of the rooms
ICvidently. lie uail expected to sur
piise Maria ami, if (lie missing paper
was ill lior posscssinii, lo find it eon
ctaled In her apartments. Not finding
it after a thorough search, it occurred
to him that •: might lie on tier person
He sent one of the men with hiin for
a woman to make the search. When
she arrived he told her to And out
whether Maria had the paper.
Maria, when the man who had won
her heart to betray her entered, gave
him a look of anger, then, when -the
searching began, fell upon her sister's
neck, sobbing plteously. While the
two women were clasped In each oth
er's arms, their bosoms closeJ up
against each other. Vera contrived to
take the paper from her sister's bosom
and slip it into her own.
Maria was the one suspected, but it
was not to be expected that Vera would
be let off without examination. Be
lieving that she would be searched,
she cast about foi' some means of get
ting rid of the paper. She started to
leave the apartment, but Grenthall or
dered her back. When the woman
came she made the search In one of
the bedrooms, the men remaining else
where. Vera was with her sister.
Maria way required to take off her
clothes, which were carefully exam
ined by the searcher jmd laid upon a
table. While her back was turned
Vera contrived fo slip the paper Into a
pocket of one of the garments that had
been examined. Her sister saw her do
this, and hope sprang up within her.
When the search was finished and
nothing found the result was reported
to Grenthall*. Having done all he could
fn the matter, be withdrew his as
sistants and went away while Maria
was dressing.
The paper was a valuable one for the
Russian government, and the sisters
were anxious to save It That night
Vera, dressed as a boy, stepped out of
the apartment and gained a lower suit
without being noticed. The next morn
ing, though a watch had been estab
lished, she got to the street and away
without being recognized. Maria went
to the foreign office, but was dis
charged. Had It been known instead of
suspected that she was guilty she
would have ljpen arrested.
Vera succeeded in reaching Russia
with the paper and was paid a large
price for it. Her sister finally rejoined
her there.
