FEHR GERMANS 1Y
DAMAGE OIL WELLS
ALONG GULF COAST
WASHINGTON Aug I—So1 —So numerous!
have become the reports of German)
spy activities and propaganda in Mex
ico that Ambassador Fletcher is pre-1
pared upon his arrival at Mexico City
to call the attention of the Mexican
government to the links in that coun
try between Berlin and German agents
ia the United States.
Officials of the state department do
net call into question the integrity of
the Mexican government, but the re
ports have left no room to doubt the
existence of a German organization in
Mexico whose machinations may be
defined as a violation of Mexico’s neu
trality. The Carranza government is
believed in fact to be disturbed by the I
abuse of its hospitality, and there is
a feeling here that the time is not far
distant when certain representatives
in Mexico of the German foreign of
fice may be questioned as to their ac
tivities.
Murk oi German Agents.
How extensive the work of the Ger
man agents has been in forwarding in
formation to Germany by mail or other)
means has not been ascertained by
American agents, but evidence of their
tireless activity in propaganda has
been produced. When Carl Heynen
was arrested a few days ago on the
charge of spy activities in the United;
States it was not known that his work ■
extended to Mexico, but since then ev-)
idence has been produced to indicate
that he was very intimately connected
with the German spy system there
and that the men who formerly report
ed to him are continuing their efforts.
One man whom agents of the United
States are watching is Richard Evers,
bush, German consul at Tampico. Ev
erbusch was the partner in /business.
of Heynen for many years.
While almost every other govern-j
meat has has decreased the number of
its consular representatives in Mexico,
Germany has kept there a full list and
Minister von Eckhardt has been at the
capital since the overthrow of Huerta.
It will hie pointed out to the Mex
ican government that in the event of
reasonable proof of undue activities by
and German consul of diplomat prece
dent for expulsion from the country
may be found in the cases of Dumba,
von Papen and Boy-Ed.
Fears of Oil Supply.
The American government is not
concerned so greatly at the suggestion
that Mexico is used as a relay point
for military information as it is over
the constant and apparently uninter
rupted German propaganda emanating
from Mexico and over the possibility
of curtailment of Mexican oil supply.
The recent strikes in the Tampico oil
region have caused some anxiety, and
it has been freely charged that they
were caused by German agents work
ing in some cases through the Indus
trial Workers of the World.
