“WASHINGTON", D. C., Sept. 1 t.—
The United States lias hardly
scratched tlie surface of the ex
posures of German official intrigue
•with neutral nations, it ,s positive
ly stated in a sensational oti'n lal an
nouncement today.
Wjhat has been made public up
to this is Ai.'onsi pjential compared
to the information now held by
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing.
The officials refuse to disclose
what their plans were relative to
the recent expose, hut it was stated
authoratively that if Stockholm
continued to make the statement
and persisted in asserting that tiieir
■ officials in other countries and in
the i'nited States acted only in the
regular diplomatic way. they will
expose the other imliseretions which
i had been committed and which
would astound the world which rea
j sonably placed some assurance in
the common honesty and candor of
: nations which professed neutrality.
The State Department says tin >
. hold messages of this doubtful
; character which wore sent since the
American declaration of war and
since Pershing sailed for Kurope.
These messages all of tlici.i were
directed to Boriin through Swedish
officials.
The officials of the Slat'1 Depart
ment will not say that these mess
ages told of the movement:-; ot
troops. “Their general charnc r
will he enough to justify our state
ment that they were unneutral in |
word and spirit."
That is the positive statement I
which was made as to the "in-1
discretions" till particulars c: which j
arc known to the rni.' d States.
VOtt'll see ii first in the W' niter.

There is no official statement j
made as to the reply to the Pope.
An unofficial summary appears j
in the usually well informed Tage j
blatt which says that the Kaiser'
mentions his desire to see an en- j
during peace the ultimate result of (
negotiations.
Whether the reply has been a J
refusal of the terms suggested by j
t lie Pope or not is not announced, j
No specific statement of the exact
terms of the answer being given.

Volk, tin* socialist organ hero says
that the* Kaiser delivered his an
swer to himself through Pope Bene
dict today, giving the i life retie [
that tlm Vatican was really inspired i
in the recent peace proposals hy
the Central Powers. The failure j
to give out any definite announce
ment as to what the German an
swer is, is explained by the paper
in this manner. There was nothing
but a favorable answer expected and
none other to be given under the
circumstances. The reply was prob
ably indefinite but courteous.
WOOD WOHKKKS STRIKE.
SEATTLE, Sept. 13.—Like a bolt
from the blue today five thousand
wood workers employed in ship
yards using lumber from scab mills
went on strike today.
The men make no demands ex
cept that the lumber which they
handle in their work be produced
by men who work in eight hour
mills.
The ten hour lumber mills must
go, is the slogan adopted by the
men.
They insist that this proposition
be met before they return to work.
