Portland -: : Oregon T. SWEDISH LEGATION, IS GERMAN AGENT Accused of Having Transmit ted German Official Tele grams to Berlin. Washington. The government's ei pornire of how Sweden's It-gallon in Argentina acted as a secret channel ot communication for Count Luxburg, German charge In Uucnos Aires, and the Berlin foreign office, hits created a sensation which absorbs the tllplo B'atlis corps and all official quunvr almost to the exclusion of alt other subjects connected with the war. As a rtivelHtlou of the machinations of German diplomacy It takes rank second only to the celebrated Zlmmer niann note plotting war between the United States and Japan and Mexico. No break with Sweden is even thought of at this juncture. At the present stage It Is wholly a matter between Argentina, Sweden and Ger many, with the United States, her al lies and the rest ot the world Interest ed onlookers. . Copies of three brief dispatches made public by the state department revealed the Swedish foreign office In an apparently grave breach of neutral ity and diplomatic Impropriety. They were messages to Berlin from Count Luxburg, the German charge at Buenos Aires, forwarded by the Swed ish legation there s Its own communi cations. Besides advertising that no concessions be granted Argentina In the submarine controversy, they sug gested that the South American coun try's ships be sunk "without leaving any trace," and gave information as to the sailing and positions of certain vessels. The department's announcement was sent to the Argentine embassy and the Swedish legation here at the same time It was given to the public. EVIDENCE AGAINST I. W. W. ACCUMULATES Washington Numerous Indictments for conspiracy to thwart the govern ment's war plans appear to be in pros pect as a result of the nation-wide raid of Industrial Workers of the World offices by department of justice agents. Evidence is said to be fast accumu lating to support the belief that a gi gantic conspiracy has existed for some time to cripple the government In car rying on the war, that Its ramifica tions have extended Into virtually every state and that numerous anti war activities which appeared to eman ate from many sources In reality had their fountalnhead In a single group of conspirators. The government's hands have been greatly strengthened by the seizure of papers la contemplated proceedings against persons identified with the I. W. W, and others who activities have been for some time under surveillance of the department's bureau of Inves tigation. Many of these documents are said to relate to labor disturbances in the west and the Pacific northwest Federal officials are said to have obtained Information that the I, W. W. has a national membership of SO.000. of whom 12,000 to 15,000 are In Chi cago. SWEDISH AFFAIR SENSATION Stockholm Government Long Regard ed as Strongly Fsvoring Germany. London. The United States state department's revelation of a Swedish diplomat in Argentina acting as an intermediary for transferring German messages to Berlin has created one of the greatest international sensations of the war. The development Itself is not, however, a great surprise, the chief surprise being that the Ameri can officials were able to obtain the messages, as they did the Zimmermann note of last winter regarding German overtures to Mexico. The suspicion has been current In England throughout the war that Ger many was obtaining much Information of military movements which could not be secured through the ordinary spies. The Swedish government, with the monarchy, the aristocracy and the army officers, has been rated strongly pro-German throughout the war. 8wdlsh Minister Denies Charge. Buenos Aires. The Swedish minis ter to Argentine, Baron Lowen, has denied that dispatches in cipher had been sent to Berlin by the German charge through the Swedish legation at Buenos Aires.
