Associa tion in his address on Homo War Information was outstanding feature of the whole convention Mr told story after story of how ho and his reporters exposed plots and crimes which finally aroused the American authorities and is the one man above all others that has made the United States our Ally in this great war Collected Long before war broke out tho Providence Journal had been cre dited by the other newspapers of the with having a bug on wireless and two stations had been established on the Atlantic seaboard day war was de clared the idea of listening in on the and Nantucket stations was conceived by his pa per with the result that in five months time an innumerable number of code messages had been collected These were all filed away in the safe of Providence Journal and the work of decoding commenced Not until five months had elapsed and a great amount of incriminating evidence German bad been obtained were any disclosures made by Mr Ilalhom and his staff Mr succeeded in getting one of his reporters placed in the Ger man Embassy at Washington and a girl stenographer in the office of the Austrian ConsulGeneral He also shadowed German and Austrian Ambassadors and many of their agents in different parts of the country with men employ ed by his newspaper A great deal of the work done had been possible because Of the green blubber instead of grey matter which the Lord had seen fit to deposit in the head of ev ery German diplomat There is always a hole in every German scheme big enough for a school boy to fall through A good ex ample of this condition lie cited in

conversation which took place there was in this manner secured and the State Department of the Republic was furnished with copies of all that transpired on the morning fol lowing the conference The different codes used by the German Government In trans mitting their instructions to their agents in the United States were very ingenious One of the most elaborate was based on the quot ing of market prices Another typo of code message Mr related to President Wilson in or der to satisfy the President that code messages were being ex changed He produced copies of eight different messages each telling of the death of little In each case she bad died of a different illness and had been placed in a different part of the room buried in a different loca tion etc Shortly after these revelations of the code messages the wireless slalion at Sayville was closed Journalists Dr Albeit of the Au strian Embassy had been shad owed for four months by a man from Mr office with out any result However one day he entered a leather goods store and purchased a portfolio ordering his initials placed upon it The Journal employe wait ing until he had left the store bought a similar one and when asked by the clerk if ho would like his initials put on it replied hat he would call next day and have a look at the work done on Dr Alberts portfolio first The following day the young man re turned to he
