Show UNITED STATES TO HUNT SPIES Discovery of Plot Will Cause More Determined Search for the Enemy. WASHINGTON, May 26. Admiral Sims' report from London that Germany Ger-many by some means learned that American destroyers were bound for European waters at least four days before they reached Quenstown, strengthened today tho government's determination to search out spies and close channels of military information which apparently still exist between the United States and Germany. That tho Queenstowji harbor entrance en-trance was strewn by submarines with mines intended for the American ships was considered by officials as proof that tho German Information concerning concern-ing thB doparturo and destination of the boats was accurate. The seriousness of the disclosure was not greatly ameliorated by the fact that the German plan was discovered dis-covered in time and the destroyers saved. |
