The discov ery of a dictograph in tbe Hotel Hilt more rooms of Captain Guy Gaunt, na val attache of the British embassy, has prevented German agents becoming cognizant of important British govern ment Becrets. Captain Gaunt's friends say he out witted men who hoped to catch him off his guard. The story of the dicto graph forms a remarkable behind-the- scenes narrative of never ceasing duels between the highly organized secret services maintained in this country by the central powers and the allies. The Teuton agents, after months of planning succeeded in planting the clic iv tograph in the room often used by Cap tain Gaunt for conferences. The plotters took rooms suited on all sides of Captain Gaunt's apartment below and above. "The German agents watched Gaunt for two weeks and observed his daily movements" said the informant. "They made mlnuate examinations of the for mations of the nails, the location of carpets, ventilating systems, etc. "They finally hit upon the ventilat or as the place where a dictograph could be placed. With the aid of an expert mechanician the conspirators entered Gaunt's apartment. They tain's room to an adjoining room." tain's room to an adjoining room. PORTLAND. Ore.. Jan. Dr. Jack M.

"Come up with me; I want you to scare the crowd." said Pettygrove to Culllns. and Culllns agreed to the plan, according to Pettygrove. These are Cullins' own words: "I just got inside the room when one of the ladles put a glass of liquor right up to my lips and tipped It. I had to drink It or have it spill over my uni form. I drank it Then another one of the ladies grabbed my helmet. I finally got It back, however." After he had that drink, he had one more before he left. About a half hour later he was found wandering around the streets In a dazed condition. Spe cial Patrolman McCabe said he waB drunk. Culllns says be was sick. Friends fonnd him and took him to his hotel, where he was put to bed. An hour later Sergeant of Police Olsner and Ennis found him In bed, and fol lowing instructions, took his star and keys from him.
