' NEW YORK, May 1. Confession
ru made in court today by Wolf
3Iirsch. arrested last nisbt with Geore
MfyrinEer, both Germans, that they
were on thier way to blow up the of
fices of J. P. Morgan & Co., with a
bomb when intercepted by the police.
' Illrseh supplemented before the court
n.tt alleged confession he had made ear
lier to the police that the explosion of
a bomb at the Morgan offices -was a
jtart of a scheme to create a stock mar
ket reversal from which he and Mey
ringer could profit financially. He
told the court he had made the bomb
under the direction of Meyringer and
another man in a laboratory at the
Koosevelt Hospital, where they were
employed. He said that Meyringer had
Induced him to speculate in "Wall street
and had suggested as a quicker way of
fretting profits a scheme to frighten
the st,ock exchange.
False Reports Planned.
The men were held In $10,000 tail
each.
Intention to destroy a "big "Wall
street institution," tap telegraph trunk
lines between Chicago, Washington and
New York, send out false reports of
President Wilson's assassination and
U-boat raids on the Atlantic Coast and
then disrupt wires to prevent denial.
.ll to affect the stock market for spec
ulative benefit, was Included In the am
bitious plot, the police declare.
Hirsch, the police assert, besides be
ing a chemist, is an ex-German secret
service officer and a reserve petty of
ficer In the submarine division of the
German navy, while Meyringer. who
was a kitchen man in the hospital, is
an expert telegrapher and a student of
finance.
Intentions Are uestioned.
The Germans expected, the police say,
to make a fortune in Wall street on
"short" investments by Instructing
ihetr brokers to buy Just as the ex
pected tumble in the market developed
from the bomb explosion and the false
news.
Persons familiar with the market
conditions have informed the police
that the Germans either were misled
about the probable outcome of such an
occurrence in Wall street or that they
are patting this story forward to hide
tbelr real intentions.
Hirsch and Meyringer have been
shadowed since the war began. Even
in the hospital laboratory, where they
experimented, they were watched, the
police say, orders having ben glvn to
the detectives to shoot either one on
th first attempt to make use' of bombs.

SHIPS ALREADY LENT
British Expert Reveals Action
by United States.
U-BOATS STILL LEAD RACE
Various National Boards Will See
That Only Essentials Will Be Per
mitted to Fill Tonnage All
Depends on America.
WASHINGTON". May 1. The United
States has already placed a consider
able amount of ship tonnage at the dis
posal of the entente allies. Lord Eus
tace Percv. ship expert with the British
miseion. said today that the Govern
ment had supplied certain vessels to
be used according to the allies' needs,
but refused to indicate what they were
or if they were the seized German
ships.
Lord Percy declared that the pres
ent rate of British construction of ships
and the present estimated rate could
not keep pace with the present rate of
destruction by submarines.
"The balancing figure in the world
struggle." said ixrd Percy, "is the ton
nage the United States can supply."
Wide Co-oneration Indicated.
Lord Percy's announcement was the
first intimation that the shipping con
ferences had actually resulted in any
agreement. It was taken as a fore
runner of a wide degree of co-operation
in which the present tonnage and
the future building powers of this
country will be pooled with the allies
to defeat the German submarine
menace.
Lord Percy stated that the British
mission had supplied the American
Government with every detail of the
shipping problem. Including the total
allied tonnage, the total destruction by
the U-boats, the irreducible needs of
the allies; the present rate of construc
tion abroad and the standardized build
ing plans. The American Shipping
Board, he said, had shown the heartievt
co-operation with the fullest under
standing of the urgency of the situa
tion. "The shipping issue," said Lord Percy,
"dominates everything else, and is very
grave, indeed. Both the present Brit
ish construction and . the estimated
American construction cannot keep
pace with the present rate of destruc
tion. Both must be speeded up very
appreciably if the seas are to be kept
open. The war has resolved itself into
a race between the efficiency of the
British and American shipyards and the
German submarine.
Much, Tonnage Keeded.
"The balancing factor in the world
struggle is the tonnage the United
States can supply. Only in case this is
large can the present military service
and food supply be continued. This is
a most vitally serious problem which
cannot be exaggerated.
"The United States." Lord Percy went
on, "is one of the few countries that
is absolutely self-sufficient in ship
building. You have here the men. the
material, the inventiveness. France,
Italy and Japan also are building
somewhat, but, unlike this country,
must use ships to build ships through
the need of importing raw materials.
"The shipping problem is not only a
matter of toniage. but equally a mat
ter of how fast that tonnage is used.
Every method possible is being used to
save shipping for the vital purposes
and keep it away from nonessentials.
Kach of the allied nations has insti
tuted a national shipping board, while
over them all is the general shipping
board, sitting in Ixndon, which at
tempts to harmonize the demands of
shipping and direct it to the most effi
cient use."
